Abstract

An adapter system for mounting a built-in device (7) in an installation space (1) in accordance with DIN ISO 7736 compensates for vertical and horizontal play between the installation space (1) and the built-in device (7). Previously known solutions have the common disadvantage that the production and storage of the adapter system imply high costs, plays are not adequately compensated for, vibrations are insufficiently dampened and assembly is complicated. These disadvantages are solved in that the adapter system has at least two separate partial elements (15) which embrace the built-in device (7) on two opposite sides in an U-shaped manner. Hence, the disadvantages encountered in prior art with respect to high costs and the high emergence of vibrations and simplifies assembly are solved.
