Patent number: 8287307Abstract: A fastening unit has a fastening device (1) and an electrical distributor (2) which is lockable to the fastening device by latching. The fastening device has a base plate (3) and with two latch mechanisms (4) which project vertically away from the base plate (3). Several openings (5, 5?) for holding screws (6) are formed in the base plate (3), with which the base plate (3) can be fastened to the wall or other support (7), and free ends of the latch mechanisms (4) each having an elastic catch arm (8) with a catch hook (9) and a rigid contact arm (10) opposite the catch arm (8). The fastening device enables the electrical distributor to be fastened quickly, easily, and reliably to a wall or other support, with the possibility of also quick and easy detaching of the distributor, as necessary, from the wall without removing the fastening device.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2012Date of Patent: October 16, 2012Assignee: Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co.
