    Abstract: An attachment mechanism may include an assembly having an engagement member moveable between retracted and extended positions, a latch member movable between latched and unlatched positions, and a fastener member moveable between unlock and lock positions. The mechanism may include a housing configured to receive the assembly and having a receptacle formed therein to receive the engagement member in the extended position. During insertion of the assembly in the housing, the latch member may be configured to automatically move from the latched to the unlatched position and the engagement member may be configured to automatically move from the retracted to the extended position into the receptacle. In response to movement of the latch member to the unlatched position, the fastener member may be configured to automatically move from the unlock to the lock position to lock the engagement member in the extended position for attachment of the assembly and housing.
