The expansion card includes a printed circuit board (PCB) and a heat generating element. The heat shielding cover is fixed to the expansion card. The heat shielding cover includes a main cover mounted to the PCB and a breather cover mounted to the chassis. The breather cover defines at least one vent. The main cover insulates the heat generating element.
Abstract:
A mounting apparatus is configured for securing a disk drive. The disk drive defines a locking hole. The mounting apparatus includes a bracket, a locking component and a spring member. The bracket includes a chassis side wall defining a through hole. Two pivot pieces are located on the chassis side wall. Two pivot pins are disposed on the locking component and rotatably engaged with the pivot piece. A locking tab is located on the locking component. The locking component defines a holding opening. One of the pivot pins is positioned in the holding opening. The spring member is secured on the one pivot pin, which is positioned in the holding opening. The locking component is rotatable between a locked position, where the locking tab is engaged in the locking hole of the disk drive, and an unlocked position, where the locking tab is disengaged from the locking hole.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a hard disk drive (HDD) with multiple mounting poles protruding from two opposite sides thereof and a bracket securing the HDD thereon. The bracket includes a beam, two securing plates extending from two opposite ends of the beam along a substantially same direction, and a positioning member. The securing plates include multiple latching grooves defined in top portions thereof. The latching grooves correspond to the mounting poles. Each latching groove includes a receiving slot allowing extension of a corresponding mounting pole therethrough and a position niche allowing the corresponding mounting pole to slide therein. The position niche communicates with the receiving slot. The positioning member is positioned in the beam and slides towards the HDD to urge the mounting poles in the latching groove from the receiving slot to the position niche.
Abstract:
A heat dissipation assembly includes a fixing board defining a fixing groove, a heat sink device fixed to the fixing board, a fan housing assembly fixed to the heat sink device, and a heat dissipation pipe. The heat sink device defines a first receiving groove aligning with the fixing groove, and a second receiving groove opposite to the first receiving groove. The fan housing assembly includes a frame defining a slot aligning with the second receiving groove, and a fan received in the frame. The dissipation pipe includes a first pipe portion, a second pipe portion, and an arc-shaped connecting portion connecting the first and second pipe portions. The first pipe portion is accommodated in the fixing groove and the first receiving groove. The second pipe portion is accommodated in the second receiving groove and the slot.
Abstract:
An electronic device enclosure includes a wall defining a slot therein, and a number of spaced bent plates formed on the wall bestriding the slot. Every two adjacent bent plates bound an opening in communication with the slot. The slot can allow more airflow to pass therethrough, and the number of bent plates can guide more airflow slantingly flowing towards the wall of the electronic device enclosure into or out the electronic device enclosure through the openings.
Abstract:
A test apparatus includes a printed circuit board, a chip carrier socket, and a display circuit. The chip carrier socket includes a space to receive a chip including a plurality of pins, a plurality of contact terminals, and a grounded ground portion. The display circuit includes a power supply and a plurality of light-emitting elements. When the chip is received in the space, the ground portion contacts a middle portion of each pin. When a pin of the chip is normal, a distal end of the normal pin contacts a corresponding contact terminal to connect a corresponding light-emitting element to the ground portion, causing the light-emitting element to light up. When a pin of the chip is askew, a distal end of the askew pin cannot contact a corresponding contact terminal, the corresponding light-emitting element will not light up.
Abstract:
A desoldering device is configured for desoldering a multi-pin electronic element from a circuit board. The desoldering device includes an iron and an attachment. The attachment is attached to the iron. The attachment includes a plate. A number of through holes are defined in the plate to allow pins of the multi-pin element to extend therethrough. Heat is capable of being transmitted from the iron the plate to melt soldered tins around the pins of the multi-pin element.
Abstract:
A universal serial bus (USB) connector includes a first sidewall defining at least one external USB socket for connecting to an external USB device of a host computer. A second sidewall defining at least one internal USB socket for connecting to an internal USB device of the host computer. A plurality of signal pins are connected to a motherboard of the host computer, and capable of connecting the at least one external USB device and the at least one internal USB device with the motherboard.
Abstract:
An exemplary mounting apparatus for an electronic device includes a base, a cover covering the base, and an ejection mechanism. The base includes a first receptacle portion for receiving the electronic device, and a second receptacle portion for receiving the ejection mechanism. The ejection mechanism includes a retaining member having a resilient tab slantingly extending therefrom, a button member, and a push member. The push member is slidably attached in the second receptacle portion and includes a push block movably abutting the electronic device, and a protrusion detachably engaging with the resilient tab. The button is moved to disengage the push member from the retaining member so that the push member pushes the electronic device out of the base.
Abstract:
A stand for supporting a computer includes a first receiving space configured for retaining a computer enclosure of the computer, and a second receiving space formed in the vicinity of the first retainer configured for retaining a power supply of the computer.
