Abstract

A holder device for a portable electronic apparatus for a motor vehicle. The device includes a stationary frame, secured to a structural element of the vehicle, and a drawer connected to the frame. The connection of the drawer to the frame is arranged such that the drawer is movable relative to the frame between a storage position and a usage position of the electronic apparatus. The connection provides a sliding movement between the storage and usage positions. In the usage position, a usage volume is at least partially delimited by the frame and the drawer. The portable electronic apparatus cam be maintained in the usage volume by a first and a second stop member coming into contact with the apparatus in at least two opposite points thereof and biased toward one another by at least one elastic member.
