Abstract: A locking mechanism includes a first locking member positioned on the first object and a second locking member positioned on the second object. The second locking member can be moved to engage with or disengage from the first locking member. The second object defines at least one through hole for allowing insertion of the disassembly tool to push the second locking member, which disengages the second locking member from the first locking member.

Abstract: A fastening mechanism for fastening a first object to a second object, the fastening mechanism includes a first fastening member, a driven member, a linkage member, and a first supporting member. The first fastening member is rotatably secured to the second object. The driven member is rotatably secured to the second object. The linkage member is connected between the fastening member and the driven member. The first supporting member protrudes from the second object to support the first object. When an external force is exerted on the driven member, the driven member is capable of rotating to pull the linkage member, thus the linkage member pulls the first fastening member to rotate toward the first supporting member and sandwiches the first object between the first fastening member and the first supporting member so that the first object is fastened to the second object.

Abstract: A fastening device includes a head and a shank. The shank has opposite ends, one end of the shank is connected to the head, and the other end of the shank defines an operating part. The operating part is capable of cooperating with a disassembling tool to enable the fastening device to rotate with respect to the longitudinal axis of the shank.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing, and a card holding mechanism for holding an electronic card. The housing defines a through hole, and the card holding mechanism may be inserted into the housing via the through hole. The card holding mechanism includes a tray for receiving the electronic card, an operating component, and a transmission component. The operating component moves from a latched position to an unlatched position, the transmission component is driven by the operating component to rotate and drive the tray to eject from the housing.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a printed circuit board (PCB), at least one socket mounted to the PCB, at least one connector inserted into the at least one socket, a first member mounted to the PCB, a second member mounted to the PCB, and a first cover. The first cover covers and presses against the at least one connector, the first cover includes a first end for being fixed to the first member and a second end opposite to the first end for being fixed to the second member. At least one of the first member and the second member is soldered to the PCB, and a soldered area of the at least one of the first member and the second member is larger than a predetermined value.

Abstract: An electronic device and a slide switch are disclosed. The slide switch includes a main body, a slider, a rotary plate rotatably connected to the main body, and a rotary arm. The main body includes a fixing space, a channel, and a first contact member protruding from a bottom of the fixing space. The slider is movable between a first position and a second position within the channel. The rotary plate includes a lateral surface and a second contact member protruding from the lateral surface. Two ends of the rotary arm are respectively connected to the slider and the lateral surface. When the slider is located in the first position, the first contact member spaces from the second contact member; when the slider is moved to the second position, the rotary arm rotates the rotary plate causing the first contact member to contact the second contact member.

Abstract: An electronic device with latching mechanism comprises a cover, a base, and a middle case located between the cover and the base. The cover on edges defines a plurality of protruding tabs each with a through hole. The base defines a plurality of hooks. The middle case on the inner surface defines a plurality of protruding portions corresponding to the protruding tabs of the cover in number and arrangement, and a plurality of limiting portions corresponding to the hooks of the base in number and arrangement. The protruding portions each with an angled surface angling toward the cover are received in the through holes of the cover. The limiting portions engage the hooks of the base.
