Patent number: 7604305Abstract: A computer enclosure includes a chassis, a top cover pivotally mounted to the chassis, a side cover pivotally mounted on the chassis, a pair of springs, and a locating member slidably mounted to the side cover. The top cover is formed to have at least one catch thereon. The side cover, the chassis, and the top cover configure a receiving space for accommodating other components. The locating member defines at least one latching opening therein for engaging with the catch. When the top cover is pivoted downward, the catch of the top cover engages in the latching opening of the locating member firmly, thereby interlocking the top cover and the side cover detachably.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2005Date of Patent: October 20, 2009Assignees: Hong Fu Jin Precision Industry (ShenZhen) Co., Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yun-Lung Chen, Yi-Chung Hsiao, Ming-Xian Sun

Patent number: 7457135Abstract: An assembly for securing plates includes a first plate having two pairs of protruding portions, and a second plate having two tongue pieces at opposite ends thereof. Each of the protruding portions has a first guiding surface and a second guiding surface intersecting with the first guiding surface for the tongue piece sliding thereon. The tongue pieces firstly slide downwardly along the first guiding surfaces of the pair of protruding portions and are then clamped between the corresponding protruding portions, thereby detachably securing the second plate to the first plate.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2005Date of Patent: November 25, 2008Assignees: Hong Fu Precision Industry (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Hon-Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yun-Lung Chen, Yi-Chung Hsiao, Ming-Xian Sun

Patent number: 7265986Abstract: A computer enclosure includes a chassis (60), an operating member (30), a resilient member (80), and a top cover (10). The chassis has a catch flange (52) which defines a plurality of locking openings (524) therein. The operating member is slidably attached to the chassis. The resilient member is connected between the chassis and the operating member, and deforms when the operating member slides relative to the chassis. The top cover has a plurality of hooks (12) formed thereon. When the resilient member returns to a relaxed condition, the hooks insert into the locking openings and are pushed by the operating member, and the catch flange is sandwiched between free ends of the hooks and the top cover.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2005Date of Patent: September 4, 2007Assignee: Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yun-Lung Chen, Yi-Chung Hsiao

Patent number: 7179125Abstract: A mounting device for mounting a connector (30) to a panel (10) includes a shield (20). The panel defines a plurality of slits (15) and a hole (13) therein. Each slit defines a wide portion (151) and a narrow portion (153) communicating with the wide portion. The shield is adapted to receive the connector therein. The shield forms a plurality of hooks (25) and a rivet (26). The hooks extend through the wide portions of the slits, then slide to the narrow portions to engage with the panel. And the rivet extends through the hole to be riveted to the panel to firmly secure the shield with the connector to the panel.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2005Date of Patent: February 20, 2007Assignee: Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd.Inventors: Yun-Lung Chen, Yi-Chung Hsiao
