Zusammenfassung:A component assembly in accordance with the present invention is disclosed. In a first aspect, the assembly includes at least one component and a bracket for holding at least one component. The bracket has a first side, a second side, and formed features for holding at least one component to the first side of the bracket. The assembly includes a wire spring assembly for securing at least one component to the second side of the bracket. In a second aspect, the component assembly comprises a first component and a second component. The component assembly further includes a bracket for holding the first and second components on the first and second sides of the bracket. The first and second sides of the bracket are oppositely disposed to each other. The bracket includes formed features on the first and second sides for retaining the first and second components. The system further includes first and second wire spring assemblies on each of the first and second sides for securing the first and second components to the bracket. Accordingly, an improved assembly for components and method for mounting is described which overcomes the problems of conventional component assembly and mounting methods. By providing an assembly for components utilizing an improved bracket designed with formed features, and a wire spring assembly the screws associated with mounting the components are minimized. In addition, the components can be attached to the bracket quickly and easily. The assembly is less expensive since the number of parts necessary for assembly is reduced. Finally, the design of the bracket allows for a robust design when mounting the component assembly within a housing.
