SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In the rail fixing structure described in JP-A-27214, when an electrical device (inner unit) is temporarily fixed to an inner unit mounting rail and then a cable connection operation is performed, a connector is connected to the cable connection side. Although it is necessary to secure a space for a tool for a stroke or a connection, there is a problem that it is not easy to perform a cable connection operation because the electric device is temporarily fixed and cannot be moved. Here, if the cable connection operation can be easily performed, there is a problem that a space for installing the device is increased.

In view of the above, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems in the conventional device mounting structure, and reduces the space for mounting the devices when mounting devices or the like to be mounted on a wall or in a storage box. In addition, an object of the present invention is to provide a device mounting structure and a device mounting bracket capable of easily performing a cable connection operation and the like.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention relates to a device mounting structure for mounting a device to an object to be mounted, comprising: a mounting member detachable from the device; The device further comprises a device mounting bracket which is detachable, supports the mounting member so as to be slidable in a substantially horizontal direction, and has a fixing portion to the mounting object.

According to the present invention, since the device can be supported by the device mounting bracket via the mounting member so as to be slidable in a substantially horizontal direction, when the device is mounted on the object to be mounted, the cable connection surface is provided. Even when a cable connection operation or the like is performed in an environment where there is a wall or the like on the side, the device can be slid during the operation to secure a space necessary for the cable connection operation or the like. As a result, the installation space of the device can be reduced, and a cable connection operation or the like can be easily performed.

In the device mounting structure, when the mounting member is mounted on the device, the mounting member is screwed with a female screw portion screwed to the device, and the body, the screw portion, and the body have a larger diameter than the body. A bolt having a formed head, and formed on the device mounting bracket, the head of the bolt can be inserted,
Further, the mounting member can be supported so as to be slidable substantially in the horizontal direction by the rail portion in which the body portion is movable in the horizontal direction.

[0010] Further, the mounting member may be formed in a plate shape, and may be detachable from the device via a bolt inserted through a hole formed in the mounting member. Further, the device mounting bracket may be configured to be detachable from the mounting member via a bolt inserted through a hole formed in the device mounting bracket.

In addition to the above, the present invention is a device mounting bracket for mounting a device to an object to be mounted, wherein the device supports the device via a mounting member so as to be slidable in a substantially horizontal direction. Can be fixed, and is provided with a fixing portion to the mounting object. Thus, even when there is a wall or the like on the cable connection surface side when attaching the device to the attachment target, the device can be slid during the operation to perform a cable connection operation or the like. Therefore, a space required for cable connection work or the like can be secured, the installation space of the device can be reduced, and the cable connection work or the like can be easily performed.

In the device mounting bracket, the mounting member, the body, the screw, and the head formed to have a larger diameter than the body by means of a rail extending substantially horizontally upward. The device may be supported so as to be slidable in a substantially horizontal direction via a bolt having a portion.
