Holding device for a communications unit
First Claim
1. Holding device (1) for a communications unit (33, 36), havinga base element (2);
- a carrier (7) which is articulated pivotally on the base element (2) so that said carrier can be pivoted away from the base element(2), by means of a spring force, said carrier being adapted to receive the communications unit (33, 36) with one end against stop elements (110) which engage laterally in corresponding recesses (111) in the communications unit (33, 36) so as to hold the communications unit (33, 36) reliably as soon as the communications unit (33, 36) is inserted into the carrier (7); and
a locking device (27) which is present on the base element (2) in order to lock the other end of the communications unit (33, 36) when the carrier (7) is pivoted towards the base element (2), the locking element (27) pressing the communications unit (33, 36) against the stop means (110);
characterized in that the carrier (7) is fitted with a plug-in connector (19) to produce at least one electrical connection between it and the communications unit (33), the plug-in connector including a plug (22) adapted to be mated to the communications unit when the communications unit is inserted into the carrier (7), the carrier (7) including a guide strip (17, 18) on each of an inner sidewall of carrier (7), the guide strips being adapted to engage a corresponding lateral longitudinal slit in a lower end of the communications unit and guide the communications unit into the carrier (7) so that the plug (22) is smoothly and reliably inserted into a respective counterpart provided on a bottom on the communications unit.

Abstract
A holding device (1) according to the invention for a communications unit (33, 36) contains a base element (2), a carrier (7) which is pivotably articulated on the base element (2), which can be pivoted away by means of spring force from the base element (2) and onto which the communications unit (33, 36) can be pushed with its one end against stop means (110), which hold the communications unit (33, 36), and a locking device (27), which is present on the base element (2) in order to lock the other end of the communications unit (33, 36) when the carrier (7) is pivoted towards the base element (2), the locking device (27) pressing the communications unit (33, 36) against the stop means (110).
