  • Publication number: 20160178856
    Abstract: An engaging assembly includes a housing, which has a recess provided on an outer surface thereof, and a slide member movably provided on the housing. The recess has a protrusion and a pushing portion provided in, wherein the protrusion extends out of the outer surface. After the engaging assembly is inserted into a base of an electronic device, the protrusion is in a securing hole of an elastic piece of the base, which prevents the engaging assembly from being disengaged from the base. The slide member has at least one extension arm located beside the protrusion. When the slide member is moved, an end of the extension arm is pushed by the pushing portion, so that the end projecting from the outer surface for a greater height than the protrusion does. The end then pushes the elastic piece to allow the engaging assembly to be disengaged from the base.

  • Patent number: 7486523
    Abstract: A fixing mechanism for quick release card is disclosed. The fixing mechanism consists of a main body, at least one fixing member and at least one locating element. The main body is an elastic body with the fixing member arranged on one end thereof. The fixing member can be arranged above a fixing hole on a motherboard with expansion slots for mini peripherals while the locating element is disposed on inner side of the main body. After a Mini-PCI card being disposed into a corresponding slot, the locating element locates the card so that the card is disposed firmly on the motherboard. Thus malfunction of the card due to falling of the card caused by external forces after being assembled is avoided.
