Fastening device for an electrical device

Abstract

The invention relates to a mounting device for an electrical unit ( 1 ), having at least one mounting element ( 4 ), which is anchored to the part ( 6; 10; 11; 12 ) that supports the electrical unit ( 1 ) and in the housing ( 2 ) of the electrical unit ( 1 ). A matching geometric distribution of the devices ( 5, 7 ) for receiving the mounting elements ( 4 ) is made on the housing ( 2 ) and on the part ( 6; 10; 11; 12 ) supporting the housing ( 2 ), in such a way that the devices ( 5 ) on the housing ( 2 ), in the installation position, each face some of the devices ( 7 ) on the supporting part ( 6 ). The devices on the housing ( 2 ) are preferably screw-in domes ( 5 ), into which self-tapping screws ( 4 ), as mounting elements, can be screwed.

1 - 3 . cancelled.  
     
     
         4 . A mounting device for mounting an electrical unit in a motor vehicle, comprising means for receiving electrical units, said means being formed so that electrical units having housings of different sizes are receivable by said means.  
     
     
         5 . A mounting device as defined in  claim 4;  and further comprising mounting elements, said means being formed so that said mounting elements can attach the housings of different sizes provided with screw-in domes, so that the mounting elements cooperate with the screw-in domes.  
     
     
         6 . A mounting device as defined in  claim 5 , wherein said mounting elements are formed as self-tapping screws which are screwable in the screw-in domes.  
     
     
         7 . A mounting device as defined in  claim 5 , wherein said means include a load-bearing plate with a load-bearing part provided with a plurality of holes, said holes having a geometrical distribution adapted to match a geometrical distribution of the screw-in domes of the housings of different sizes.
