Abstract

The invention relates to a chassis intended to hold electronic modules which use printed circuit boards. The chassis includes upper and lower supports for the boards which have slide-ways to guide the boards, and also serve to align connectors and secure them to front and rear upper and lower cross-pieces of the chassis. The supports snap or latch onto the cross-pieces by means of mouths which are orientated at right-angles to one another. The chassis may be employed in industrial automation control systems.
