Abstract

An avionic tray assembly comprising a tray (12) having upper and lower surfaces (28, 30) with an opening (24) is formed in the tray to let the passage of air therethrough. A U-shaped channel member (26) is secured to the lower surface of the tray beneath the peripheral edge (40) of the opening with the opening located above a central portion of the channel to create an overhanging lip above the channel. An elastomeric gasket is located in the channel with a lower portion occupying substantially all of the space within the channel and beneath the overhanging lip and an upper portion extending out of the channel and above the surface of the tray to engage and support an object positioned above the opening in the tray.
