  • Publication number: 20140347792
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a top case having at least one inserting tab, a bottom case defining at least one latching slit corresponding to the at least one inserting tab, and at least one stopping plate secured to the bottom case and corresponding to the at least one latching slit. The top case is latched to the bottom case by the inserting tab being inserted into the at least one latching slit. When the inserting tab is unaligned with the latching slit, the stopping plate blocks the inserting tab and guides the inserting tab to be inserted into the latching slit, to prevent the top case from misplacement.

  • Patent number: 8630086
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first component defining at least one through hole, a hinge defining at least one round hole corresponding to the at least one through hole, and a fixing mechanism for securing the hinge to the first component. The fixing mechanism includes a latching member and at least one fixing member capable of extending through the at least one through hole and the at least one round hole. The latching member defines at least one fixing hole corresponding to the at least one round hole. When the at least one fixing member extends through the at least one round hole and the at least one through hole, the at least one fixing hole receives an end of the at least fixing member to secure the hinge to the first component.
