  • Patent number: 7384106
    Abstract: A fastening mechanism includes an engaging block formed with an engaging post extending through a through hole unit in a frame body and into a fastening hole in a peripheral device. A pressing member has an interconnecting pressing portion interconnecting a pivot end portion connected pivotally to a pivot member on the frame body, and an operable anchoring end portion, and is pivotable relative to the pivot member so as to move from a releasing position, where the anchoring end portion disengages an anchoring member on the frame body and where the interconnecting pressing portion is spaced apart from the engaging block, to an anchoring position, where the anchoring end portion engages the anchoring member on the frame body and where the pivot end portion and the interconnecting pressing portion abut against the engaging block.

  • Patent number: 7259959
    Abstract: A fastening mechanism includes a mounting seat mounted on a frame body, disposed at a mounting hole in a frame body, and configured with an accommodating space therein. The mounting seat has a mounting wall formed with an opening for access into the accommodating space, and an outer surrounding wall connected to a periphery of the mounting wall. An engaging member extends movably in the accommodating space in the mounting seat, and is operable so as to move from a releasing position, where the engaging member disengages a fastening hole in a peripheral device, to an anchoring position, where the engaging member engages the fastening hole in the peripheral device such that the peripheral device is fastened to the frame body. The engaging member can be retained releasably in a selected one of the anchoring and releasing positions.
