  • User-Serviceable Device
    Publication number: 20250359639
    Abstract: The description relates to devices, such as user-serviceable devices. One example can include a chassis defining a cavity accessible through a rear side and a rear cover positioned against the chassis over the rear side. The device can be configured to allow movement between the rear cover and the chassis substantially parallel to the rear side to lock the rear cover against the chassis and to allow movement in an opposite direction to unlock the rear cover and further configured to impart a biasing force on the rear cover substantially perpendicular to the rear side. The device can also include a release that can be engaged through the chassis to cause the movement of the rear cover in the opposite direction to unlock the rear cover and allow the biasing force to move the rear cover substantially perpendicularly to the rear side away from the chassis.
