    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • Referring to FIG. 1, an embodiment of an electronic device enclosure 100 includes a housing 10, and a securing mechanism 50 fixed in the housing 10 to secure a component 20 inside the housing 10. The securing mechanism 50 includes a fixing bracket 30 fixed on a sidewall of the housing 10, and a resilient member 40 fixed on the fixing bracket 30. In the illustrated embodiment, the component 20 is a power supply. Alternatively, the component 20 may be a hard disk, a compact disc drive, or other component.
  • Referring to FIG. 2, the housing 10 defines an opening 11 in a sidewall. The fixing bracket 30 is fixed in the housing 10 adjacent to the opening 11, thus the component 20 can be positioned onto the fixing bracket 30 through the opening 11.
  • The component 20 includes a component chassis 20 a. The component chassis 20 a includes a plurality of positioning portions 21 and a plurality of engaging portions 23 (shown in FIG. 6) positioned on the component chassis 20 a. In the illustrated embodiment, the positioning portions 21 are protruding posts formed on opposite side surfaces of the component chassis 20 a, and the engaging portions 23 are engaging grooves defined in the bottom surface of the component chassis 20 a.
  • Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the fixing bracket 30 may be substantially U-shaped, and includes a base plate 31 and two side plates 33 extending substantially perpendicular from opposite ends of the base plate 31. The base plate 31 includes an abutting portion 311 extending substantially perpendicular from an end of the base plate 31 between the two side plates 33. The base plate 31 defines two through holes 312 adjacent to the abutting portion 311; and the base plate 31 forms two fixing posts 314 adjacent to the two through holes 312. An imaginary connecting line formed between the two fixing posts 314 is substantially perpendicular to the side plates 33. Each side plate 33 may be a substantially right-angled trapezoid, and includes two guiding portions 331 positioned thereon. In the illustrated embodiment, the guiding portions 331 are elongated guiding grooves which are defined in the side plate 33 and are parallel to the base plate 31.
  • The resilient member 40 may be a substantially rectangular piece, and includes a pressing portion 41 bent from a shorter edge, and a fixing portion 42 formed on a longer edge. The pressing portion 41 is extended substantially perpendicular from the shorter edge of the resilient member 40. The resilient member 40 can resiliently deform when the pressing portion 41 is pressed by an external force. The fixing portion 42 is extended along the longer edge of the resilient member 40. The longer edge is substantial perpendicular to the sliding directions of the positioning portions 21. The fixing portion 42 defines two fixing holes 421 corresponding to the fixing posts 314 of the fixing bracket 30. The resilient member 40 forms two latching portions 43 adjacent to another longer edge away from the fixing portion 42. In the illustrated embodiment, each latching portion 43 is a latching protrusion having a resisting surface 431 (refer to FIG. 6).
  • Referring also to FIG. 2, the fixing bracket 30 is fixed on the sidewall of the housing 10 with the two side plates 33 fixed on opposite sides of the opening 11. The abutting portion 311 abuts the bottom wall of the housing 10, thus define a distance between the base plate 31 and the bottom wall of the housing 10. The fixing posts 314 engage in the fixing holes 421, thereby fixing the resilient member 40 on the fixing bracket 30. The latching portions 43 of the resilient member 40 pass through the through holes 312 of the fixing bracket 30. Alternatively, the resilient member 40 may be fixed on the fixing bracket 30 by other means, such as attachment or bonding by adhesive. Accordingly, the fixing posts 314 and the fixing holes 421 may be omitted.
  • Referring also to FIGS. 5 to 7, during installation of the component 20 into the housing 10, the component chassis 20 a is positioned on the fixing bracket 30 via the opening 11. The positioning portions 21 pass through and slide along the guiding portions 331 away from the opening 11, until the latching portions 43 of the resilient member 40 engage in the engaging portions 23 of the component chassis 20 a. The resisting surfaces 431 of the latching portions 43 abut the side surfaces of the engaging portions 23, thereby preventing the component chassis 20 a from sliding relative to the fixing bracket 30. Thus, the component 20 is assembled in the housing 10.
  • During removal of the component 20 from the housing 10, external force applied on the pressing portion 41 impels the resilient member 40 to resiliently deform, and the latching portions 43 disengage from the engaging portions 23 of the component chassis 20 a. Then, the positioning portions 21 is slided along the guiding portions 331 toward the opening 11, thus the component 20 can be removed from the housing 10.
  • In the electronic device enclosure 100, the latching portions 43 of the resilient member 40 can be engaged to or disengaged from the engaging portions 23 of the component chassis 20 a, thus permitting the component 20 to be easily installed into or removed from the housing 10. During the installation or removal, the positioning portions 21 pass through and slide along the guiding portions 331, thus the component chassis 20 a can stably slide relative to the fixing bracket 30 to avoid damage.
  • In alternative embodiments, the engaging portions 23 may be in the form of engaging hooks latching the latching portions 43. The positioning portions 21 may be positioning grooves defined in the opposite side surfaces of the component chassis 20 a, and the guiding portions 331 may be protruding posts formed on the side plates 33, which are passing through and sliding along the positioning portions 21. In addition, the guiding portions 331 can also be in the form of guiding grooves positioned substantially vertical to the base plate 31.
  • It is believed that the present embodiments and their advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure or sacrificing all of its material advantages.
