  • Patent number: 8604371
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a front plate, a top plate, and a switch control unit. The front plate defines a receiving hole therein. The switch control unit includes a mounting frame mounted on the front plate, a switch mounted in the mounting frame, a contact element located above the switch, and a control assembly. When the top plate completely covers the front plate, the top plate presses the contact element, and the contact element resiliently presses the switch to turn on the switch. When the top plate is pulled away from the front plate, the switch is turned off. The control assembly includes a first knob rotatably received in the mounting frame. The first knob includes a pressing portion. When the first knob is rotated from a first position to a second position, the pressing portion abuts against the switch to keep the switch on.

  • Patent number: 8598480
    Abstract: An exemplary electronic device includes a casing, a first switch, a second switch and a switch control unit. The casing includes a side plate and a top plate detachably connected with a top end of the side plate. The first switch is turned on when the top plate is connected to the side plate and turned off when the top plate is detached from the side plate. The switch control unit includes a sliding member mounted at one side of the second switch. The sliding member includes a pressing plate. The sliding member is moveable relative to the side plate between a first state in which the pressing plate aligned with and pressing the second switch to turn on the second switch and a second state in which the pressing plate is staggered with the second switch to turn off the second switch.

  • Patent number: 8592704
    Abstract: An exemplary electronic device includes a casing, a first switch, a second switch and a switch control unit. The second switch is connected in parallel with the first switch. The casing includes a side plate and a top plate detachably connected with a top end of the side plate. The first switch is turned on when the top plate mounted to the side plate and turned off when the top plate detached from the side plate. The switch control unit includes a sliding member mounted at the second switch. The sliding member includes a pressing plate and is moveable relative to the side plate between a first position in which the pressing plate aligned with and pressing the second switch to turn on the second switch and a second position in which the pressing plate is staggered with the second switch to turn off the second switch.

  • Patent number: 8456848
    Abstract: A computer enclosure includes a shell body, and an expansion card retention assembly. The shell body includes a main chassis, and a side wall perpendicular to the main chassis. The side wall defines an elongated through hole extending along a first direction perpendicular to the main chassis. The expansion card retention assembly includes a first and second expansion frames fixed on the side wall. The first expansion frame includes a main board with a length in the first direction less than that of the through hole, and is configured for fixing a first expansion card. The second expansion frame includes an elongated main plate extending along the first direction, and a first support platform perpendicularly extending from an end of the main plate. The main plate and the first support platform are configured for matingly engaging with an expansion card bracket of a second expansion card.

  • Patent number: 8373981
    Abstract: An expansion card fastening device includes a bracket, a first fastener, and a second fastener. The bracket includes parallel arranged fences. The first fastener is assembled on one of the fences, and includes a connecting portion, a supporting portion, and an elastic element. The supporting portion and the elastic element are both disposed on an end of the connection portion. A first clasp protrudes from the supporting portion, and faces the same direction with a free end of the elastic element. A second fastener pivots to the supporting portion, and is resisted by the elastic element. A second clasp protrudes from the second fastener, and faces the same direction with the first clasp.

  • Publication number: 20120146469
    Abstract: A computer case includes two opposite boards, two brackets, two elastic elements, and two latching elements. Each board has a recessed portion with a resisting surface. The two brackets are rotatably connected to the two resisting surfaces respectively. Each bracket defines a pinhole away from the resisting surface. Each elastic element is positioned between a corresponding resisting surface and a corresponding bracket to supply elastic force between the corresponding resisting surface and the corresponding bracket. The two latching elements are slidably mounted on the two opposite boards. Each latching element includes a latching portion. When the brackets contact the resisting surfaces, the latching portions are received in the pinholes to latch the brackets.
