  • Patent number: 9447800
    Abstract: A mounting apparatus includes an enclosure for mounting a receiving member, a bracket, and a movable member mounted to the enclosure. The receiving member is configured to receive an electronic component. The bracket includes a bracket body movably mounted to the enclosure and an operating member mounted to the bracket body. The movable member includes a movable body and a movable block mounted to the movable body. The movable body is mounted to the bracket body. The operating member is pressed in a first direction toward the enclosure to drive the bracket body to rotate, the movable body moves a second direction away from the enclosure, thereby the movable block can move in a third direction away from the enclosure to push the electronic component and the electronic component can move in the second direction. The third direction is different from the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20120305745
    Abstract: A mounting apparatus for a fan, configured for securing the fan, includes a plate. The plate further includes a main body. The main body defines a ventilation area corresponding to the fan. At least two latching pieces and at least one protrusion extend from main body. The at least two latching pieces and the at least one protrusion are around the ventilation are. The at least two latching pieces is engaged with two opposite sides of the mounting board for preventing the fan from moving a first direction, a second direction opposite, and a third direction substantially perpendicular to the main body; and the at least one protrusion abuts the mounting board to prevent the fan from rotating in a fourth direction which the mounting board is disengaged from the at least two latching pieces.
