  • Patent number: 10166661
    Abstract: An electronic device for checking a fastening state of screws includes a receiving member, a cover, an electric screwdriver, a processor, and a warning unit. The receiving member receives a mountable device. The cover includes a number of screw guiding members, the screw guiding members guides the screws into screw holes on the mountable device. The electric screwdriver fastens the screws into the screw holes on the mountable device. The processor predefines an order of the electric screwdriver fastening the screws in response to operations of an operator; in a process of the electric screwdriver fastening the screws into the screw holes on the mountable device received in the receiving member, checks whether the fastening order is the same as the predefined order; and when the fastening order is not the same as the predefined order, controls the warning unit to output a warning message.
