Abstract: A cover mounting structure for a shelf assembly which allows easy mounting of a cover to a shelf and can reliably prevent falling of the cover even when the cover is unlocked. The shelf assembly includes a shelf having a pair of side plates and a plurality of electronic circuit packages mounted in the shelf. The cover mounting structure includes a cover having a front plate, a pair of side plates bent from the front plate at a substantially right angle thereto, and a top plate bent from the front plate at a predetermined angle thereto; and a pair of shafts fixed in the vicinity of the upper ends of the side plates of the cover so as to project inside of the cover. A pair of recesses for receiving the shafts are formed at the upper ends of the side plates of the shelf, and a pair of guiding slant surfaces for guiding reception of the shafts into the recesses are formed at the front edges of the upper ends of the side plates of the shelf.

Abstract: This invention relates to a subrack device applicable for an SDH network, and more particularly to a subrack device which can be produced flexibly in response to a customer's need. The subrack device has a subrack body commonly used regardless of a type of the subrack device. The subrack body has a circuit-board-unit housing portion and an outer-connecting-board mounting portion. Circuit boards and outer-connecting-board connecting-boards of different types are prepared. The outer-connecting-board mounting portion has a plurality of outer-connecting-board mounting territories. The outer-connecting-boards are plugged in the outer-connecting-board mounting territories to produce the subrack device meeting the customer's need.
