  • Patent number: 10690161
    Abstract: A riveting structure and a riveting method are provided. The riveting structure includes a first metal element and a second metal element. The first metal element includes a first upper surface, a pressure-receiving portion and a recess portion. The recess portion is recessed from the first upper surface. The pressure-receiving portion is protruded from a surface of the recess portion. The second metal element includes a second lower surface and a protrusion portion and has a through hole. The protrusion portion is protruded from the second lower surface and correspondingly disposed in the recess portion. The through hole penetrates the second metal element via a central part of the protrusion portion. The pressure-receiving portion is correspondingly received in the through hole and is adapted to be pressed and deformed to be riveted to the through hole.

  • Patent number: 10437294
    Abstract: A holding structure adapted to position a storage device is provided. The holding structure includes an integrally formed metal bracket. The integrally formed metal bracket includes a plurality of first segments and a second segment. The first segments are sequentially connected to each other and define an accommodating space, wherein any two adjacent first segments are bent relatively to each other, and the storage device is adapted to be positioned in the accommodating space. A first end of the second segment is connected to one of the first segments, and a second end of the second segment is detachably assembled to another one of the first segments to confine the storage device in the accommodating space. Moreover, a mounting structure including the holding structure is also mentioned.

  • Publication number: 20190041921
    Abstract: A device casing including a bottom plate, a first side plate, a second side plate opposite to the first side plate, a third side plate and two pivoting elements is provided. The bottom plate is connected to the first side plate and the second side plate respectively to form a U-shaped frame having an opening end opposite to the bottom plate. The third side plate is pivotally connected to the first side plate and the second side plate respectively. The two pivoting elements are configured to fix but rotatably connect the third side plate to the first side plate and the second side plate respectively. The two pivoting elements are adjacent to the opening end. The third side plate whose axis of rotation is an imaginary line connecting the two pivoting elements is optionally movable between a closed position and an opened position.
