  • Publication number: 20180177471
    Abstract: A carrier positioning device includes a carrying base (100) and a carrier (200). A clamp (110) is arranged on the carrying base (100) and a protruding hook (113) protrudes from one side of a distal end (111) of the clamp (110). The carrier (200) has a pipe (210), and a joint (220) is disposed at one end of the pipe (210). The protruding hook (113) hooks one side of the joint (220) so that at least another portion of the carrier (200) is in contact with the carrying base (100). Accordingly, the carrier (200) can be quickly installed or be removed along a lateral direction.
