Zusammenfassung:A quick mounting arrangement detachably mounts a light fixture or the like in an overhead cabinet of a furniture article. Front and rear mounting ledges are located in the lower portion of the cabinet and are oriented to generally face one another. Two mounting pins protrude from the rear side of the light fixture, and at least one latch protrudes from the front side of the light fixture. Each latch includes a spring loaded slide pin, with a thumb tab to manually shift the slide pin from a normally extended position to a retracted position. During installation of the light fixture, the mounting pins are positioned on the rear ledge, each slide pin is retracted, and the front side of the light fixture is pivoted upwardly into the bottom of the cabinet. Each slide pin is then released to engage the front ledge to quickly and securely mount the light fixture in the cabinet without requiring any tools.
