Abstract

A bracket for a vehicle mount device includes an attachment member for a vehicle side, and a holding portion for the vehicle mount device. The holding portion includes a receiving portion for receiving at least a part of the vehicle mount device by a sliding operation of the vehicle mount device, and a guide portion for a projecting portion of the vehicle mount device along a sliding direction of the sliding operation. The receiving portion includes a position setting wall for the side of the vehicle mount device, and a holding piece for one side of the vehicle mount device. The guide portion includes an elastic piece, which is elastically deformed by contacting the projecting portion during a sliding movement and returns to an original posture at an end of the sliding movement to engage the projection.

Claims (11)

1. A bracket for a vehicle mount device for holding the vehicle mount device to a predetermined position in a vehicle, comprising:

an attachment member for a vehicle side; and

a holding portion for the vehicle mount device,

wherein the holding portion includes a receiving portion for receiving at least a part of the vehicle mount device by a sliding operation of the vehicle mount device, and a guide portion for a projecting portion formed on the vehicle mount device along a sliding direction of the sliding operation,

the receiving portion includes a position setting wall for the vehicle mount device, and a holding piece for one side of the vehicle mount device, and

the guide portion includes an elastic piece, which is configured to be elastically deformed by contacting the projecting portion during a sliding movement and returns to an original posture at an end of the sliding movement to engage the projection to thereby prevent a return movement of the vehicle mount device.

2. A bracket for a vehicle mount device according to claim 1 , wherein the holding piece includes a contact portion for one face of the vehicle mount device, which is configured to receive the vehicle mount device by elastic deformation along with a contact of the contact portion relative to the one face in during the sliding movement, the elastic piece elastically deforming in a direction opposite to the holding piece by contacting the projecting portion during the sliding movement.

3. A bracket for a vehicle mount device according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving portion further includes a base portion configured to be located on the one face of the vehicle mount device, the holding piece extending from the base portion to a movement rear side of the sliding movement.

4. A bracket for a vehicle mount device according to claim 1 , wherein the holding piece has a curved shape with a contact portion at a top in a section along a sliding direction.

5. A bracket for a vehicle mount device according to claim 1 , wherein the elastic piece includes an engaging portion for the projecting portion, which is an inclined face to gradually increase a height in a rear direction of the sliding movement.

6. A bracket for a vehicle mount device according to claim 1 , wherein the attachment member includes one face as an attachment face to the vehicle side to form the holding portion on a side opposite to the attachment member, and a window hole formed in a concave portion in the one face configured to retain the vehicle mount device held by the holding portion, the attachment member being formed of a material shielding electromagnetic waves.
