Abstract

A swing arm lock mechanism for securing a printed circuit board to a bracket includes a main body, a hooked arm, and an aperture in the main body. The hooked arm extends from and is integral with the main body. The hooked arm and main body define an open-ended slot for engaging a lock pin disposed on the bracket. The aperture receives a fastener for securing the main body to the printed circuit board such that the main body and hooked arm can rotate about a central axis of the fastener from a first unlocked position to a second locked position.
