To be able to connect and mount a rack mount device having a rack loaded device loaded thereon to a rack easily, and to be able to release and detach the rack mount device easily from the outside of the rack. The rack mount device has a pair of mount kits for holding the rack loaded device arranged to oppose to each other, which are detachably connected to four mount angles configuring the rack. Each mount kit is configured with a front mount and a rear mount, which are freely slidable with respect to each other in the longitudinal directions thereof. A kit connecting mechanisms for connecting each mount kit to the mount angles are provided to both ends of the mount kits, respectively. A connection releasing mechanism for releasing the connection between the mount kits and the mount angles is provided to each of the kit connecting mechanisms.

1. A rack mount device, comprising: a first and a second mount kit for holding a loaded device, which are arranged to oppose each other in a lateral direction;wherein each of the first and second mount kits are detachably mounted to a corresponding pair of front and rear pole brace members; wherein each of the mount kits includes a front mount and a rear mount which abut each other and are telescopically slidable with respect to each other in a longitudinal direction thereof to adjust the length of the respective mount kits; anda kit connecting mechanism provided at both a front end and a rear end of each of the mount kits, for connecting each of the mount kits to the corresponding pole brace members, and an elongated stopper member provided at both respective ends of each of the mount kits,wherein the elongated stopper has a proximal end and an opposite distal end; wherein the distal end of the stopper member comprises a slanted tip operating part that acts as a kit connection releasing mechanism for detaching the mount kits from the respective pole brace members;wherein each of the respective kit connecting mechanisms each comprise:a holding part formed by bending an end part of a corresponding outer side surface of the respective front and rear mounts, in such a manner that each holding part extends perpendicularly from the corresponding outer side surfaces of the respective front and rear mounts,wherein the outer side surface of the front mount is a guide surface and the outer surface of the rear mount is a slide surface;a positioning pin fixed to an inner-side face of the holding part;wherein the positioning pin is adapted to be inserted through a positioning hole provided in a side of the respective pole brace members, anda generally L-shaped opening formed in a tip end of both the front and rear mounts; wherein the generally L-shaped opening extends between an inner edge of the outer side surfaces of the respective front and rear mounts and a corresponding inner edge of the holding parts of the respective front and rear mounts; wherein the L-shaped opening is formed at a substantially central height of the respective outer side surfaces and holding parts of the corresponding front and rear mounts in a vertical direction;wherein the elongated stopper member is formed with an elastic member comprised of a single plate spring; wherein the proximal end of the elongated stopper member is attached to each of the outer side surfaces of the corresponding front and rear mounts by a fastener which extends perpendicularly through the stopper member and the respective outer side surfaces of the corresponding front and rear mounts; wherein the slanted tip operating part of the stopper member is free to pivot in a direction away from the respective positioning pin of a corresponding front or rear mount; wherein the stopper member further includes a generally V-shaped engaging part that is located near the distal end of the stopper member; wherein the V-shaped engaging part projects away from the L-shaped opening; wherein the stopper member further comprises a generally flat locking part located in between the V-shaped engaging part and the slanted tip operating part; wherein the stopper member substantially covers the L-shaped opening;wherein, when in use, the respective front or rear mount is moved in a first longitudinal direction and the corresponding positioning pin is aligned and inserted within a corresponding positioning hole of a respective pole brace member; wherein the engaging projection part is pressed by the respective pole brace member when the positioning pin is initially inserted within the corresponding positioning hole which causes the engaging projection part, the locking part, and the tip operating part to shift simultaneously towards the L-shaped opening; wherein the engaging projection part, the locking part, and the tip operating part simultaneously return to an initial position when the positioning pin is completely inserted through the corresponding positioning hole; and the tip operating part, locking part, and engaging projection part curve around a tip end portion of the respective pole brace member to lock the corresponding front or rear mount to the respective pole brace member; wherein the tip operating part can be manually shifted towards the L-shaped opening by a user so that the tip operating part, locking part, and engaging projection part temporarily disengages the tip end portion of the respective pole brace member in order to move the respective front or rear mount in a second longitudinal direction which is opposite to the first longitudinal direction which removes the corresponding front or rear mount from the respective pole brace member. 2. The rack mount device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of front mounts from the first and second mount kits further comprise a holding surface for holding the loaded device, which is orthogonal to the height or vertical direction of the corresponding front mount and extended towards the respective opposing front mount out of the corresponding first and second mount kits.
