摘要:
The present invention provides for an apparatus and method for retaining a circuit board in a computer system. Some embodiments include single or multiple panels hinged to a chassis of the computer that are used to retain circuit boards such as expansion boards. The panel, or portions of the panel, may contact a circuit board through a card retaining member that may be slidable relative to the panel. In some embodiments the card retaining member will only slide toward an expansion card when controls for the member are so arranged by an operator. Expansion cards may be released from retention by movement of the panel away from the expansion cards, and in some cases by movement of the card retaining members away from the expansion cards.

The present invention provides for an apparatus and method for retaining a circuit board in a computer system. Some embodiments include single or multiple panels hinged to a chassis of the computer that are used as retaining structures. In operation, the retaining structures may be hinged down onto a circuit board cap that is in turn coupled to a central processing unit package that includes a circuit board. In this manner, the central processing unit or another component including a circuit board may be retained in a computer system.

Minitower computers and housings for protecting the internal and external hardware components of minitower computers. In one embodiment, a minitower computer housing includes a component panel, an under section extending rearwardly from the component panel, and a cover section connected to the component panel and the under section. The housing of this embodiment also includes a first tilt member depending from the under section to tilt the front panel. The first tilt member includes a vent to provide airflow through the computer housing. The first tilt member, for example, can have a front surface extending downwardly from the component panel to a bottom region and a back surface extending upwardly from the bottom region to the under section. The vent can be an opening in the back surface of the tilt member to direct sound waves rearwardly away from a user.

Embodiments of mounting clips are described. One such embodiment of a mounting clip for attaching an object, device, or portion of a device to a computer monitor comprises a main body. At least one hook-shaped rib is coupled to the main body. The at least one rib is removably insertable within an opening in the computer monitor. A foot, coupled to the main body, contacts an exterior surface of the computer monitor while the at least one rib is inserted within the opening. A holder receptacle is coupled to the main body and provides a mating point for coupling an object to the mounting clip.

A housing comprises a track for accepting at least one removably couplable attachment. A portion of an exterior peripheral surface of the housing is recessed relative to adjacent portions of the exterior peripheral surface. The recessed portion and a non-recessed portion of the exterior peripheral surface define a track for interfacing with a removably couplable attachment.
