  • Patent number: 9433069
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a metallic housing having a front wall with a mounting hole communicating with an interior thereof, and a front cover spaced apart from the front wall and having an access slot corresponding in position to the mounting hole. A circuit module includes a circuit board disposed within the metallic housing and having an extension protruding out of the front wall via the mounting hole, and an electrical connector disposed on the extension. A conductive ground element is disposed pivotally within the metallic housing in proximity to the mounting hole, and abuts against the electrical connector to conduct static electricity of the electrical connector to the metallic housing.

  • Patent number: 8936376
    Abstract: The fixing device of the present invention comprises a base, at least one light guide pillar, and at least one light-blocking element. The base comprises at least one through hole, which obliquely penetrates the base. The at least one light guide pillar is disposed on the base. The at least one light-blocking element corresponds to the at least one through hole; therefore, when the at least one light-blocking element passes through the at least one through hole, the base and the light guide pillar are fixed by the at least one light-blocking element.

  • Publication number: 20140340864
    Abstract: An electronic device of the invention includes a main chassis, an electronic module, a cage and an EMI shielding structure. The main chassis has an opening. The cage is assembled to the main chassis and covers the opening. The electronic module is disposed in the cage. The EMI shielding structure includes a conductive frame and at least one first conductive spring clip. The conductive frame is assembled to the cage and electrically connected to the electronic module. The first conductive spring clip is connected to the conductive frame and contacts the main chassis, in which an electromagnetic wave emitted by the electronic module sequentially passes through the conductive frame and the first conductive spring clip to be transmitted to the main chassis.

  • Patent number: 8797736
    Abstract: A casing includes a casing module and a support module. The casing module includes two side plates spaced apart from each other, a top-plate unit disposed between and perpendicular to the side plates, and a bottom plate spaced apart from and parallel to the top-plate unit. The side plates, the top-plate unit and the bottom plate define a first accommodating space for receiving a first electronic device. The support module is disposed between the top-plate unit and the bottom plate, and is removably caught in the top-plate unit to divide the first accommodating space into two second accommodating spaces for receiving two second electronic devices that differ in size from the first electronic device.
