  • Publication number: 20120250261
    Abstract: A cabinet for electronic devices includes a rack and engaging units. The rack includes a first supporting post, a second supporting post, a third supporting post and a fourth supporting post located at four corners of an imaginary rectangular parallelepiped. An opening is defined between the first supporting post and the second supporting post for the electronic devices inserted therein. Each of the third and fourth supporting posts defines a plurality of pairs of slots therein. The engaging units are mounted on the third and the fourth supporting posts, respectively. Each of the engaging units includes a pair of pins received in a corresponding pair of slots and a pressing element connected with the pins. The pressing element is horizontally moveable by the pins sliding along the corresponding pair of slots to thereby adjust an abutting force between the pressing element and a corresponding electronic device.

  • Patent number: 8220756
    Abstract: A mounting apparatus includes a receiving rack, a sliding member slidably mounted to the receiving rack, a first resilient member, and a latching unit. The latching unit includes a fitting member pivotally mounted to the receiving rack, a locking member slidably received in the fitting member, and a second resilient member. The fitting member includes a resisting plate and an elastic clamping portion. The locking member faces the sliding member. A wedged protrusion protrudes from the clamping portion, operably latched with the receiving rack. The first resilient member resist against the sliding member and the fitting member. When the latching tab engages with the sidewall of the bracket, the sliding member is moved to deform the first resilient member. Thereafter, the sliding member resists the resisting plate, to block the fitting member to rotate further into the receiving rack. The wedged protrusion is incapable of latching with the receiving rack.
