Abstract
A mounting assembly for mounting a component in an enclosure for electronic equipment, such as a computer, and having at least one mounting plate. The mounting assembly includes a sled member extending around a portion of the component, and at least one aligmnent member engaging the component and attached to the sled member for locating the sled member relative to the component. A portion of the alignment member protrudes outwardly from the plane of the spring member, so that, when the component, and therefore the mounting assembly, are advanced towards the plate, the protruding portion is engaged by the mounting plate to secure the component in the enclosure and establish an electrical ground.
