Abstract
A system for securing an oven cavity rack includes an oven cavity rack; first and second fasteners passing through the oven cavity rack; a retaining body configured to be located in a space outside of the oven cavity; first and second retaining clips attached to the retaining body at first and second ends of the retaining body, the retaining clips each having a receiving feature that receives one of the fasteners. The first and second fasteners engage the retaining clips and are configured to draw the retaining clips toward the oven cavity to secure the oven cavity rack against an oven cavity side of an oven cavity wall, and when the first fastener is secured to the first retaining clip, the retaining body is positionally fixed by the first fastener such that the receiving feature of the second retaining clip remains aligned with an attachment point.
