Abstract

An electronic device enclosure includes an inner tray and an outer tray. The inner tray includes a bottom plate. The outer tray receiving the inner tray and includes a base wall with a first bridge. The first bridge includes two first connecting panels and a first mounting panel between the two first connecting panels. Each of the two first connecting panels is slanted relative to the base wall. An acreage of the first mounting panel is less than an acreage of the base wall, and the base wall is engaged with the bottom plate via the first mounting panel by attaching the first mounting panel to the bottom plate, to decrease a contacting acreage between the base wall and the bottom plate.

Claims (24)

1. An electronic device enclosure comprising: an inner tray comprising a bottom plate; and

an outer tray receiving the inner tray and comprising a base wall;

the base wall comprising a first bridge; the first bridge comprising two first connecting panels and a first mounting panel between the two first connecting panels; each of the two first connecting panels being slanted relative to the base wall;

wherein an area of the first mounting panel is less than an area of the base wall excluding an area of the first bridge, and the base wall is engaged with the bottom plate via the first mounting panel by attaching the first mounting panel to the bottom plate, to decrease a contacting area between the base wall and the bottom plate; and

a securing tray secured to a front side and a top side of the inner tray and a decorating plate attached to the securing tray, the decorating plate comprising a hook, the outer tray comprising a clipping piece on a sidewall substantially perpendicular to the base wall, and the hook extending through the securing tray and engaged with the clipping piece.

2. The electronic device enclosure of claim 1 , wherein the first mounting panel is located on a first plane, and the base wall is located on a second plane below the first plane.

3. The electronic device enclosure of claim 2 , wherein the first mounting panel is substantially parallel to the base wall.

4. The electronic device enclosure of claim 1 , wherein the first mounting panel defines a first receiving hole, the bottom plate comprises a first post engaged in the first receiving hole, and a gap is defined between the bottom plate and the first mounting panel.

5. The electronic device enclosure of claim 1 , wherein an obtuse angle is defined between each of the two first connecting panels and the first mounting panel.

6. The electronic device enclosure of claim 1 , wherein the outer tray further comprise two sidewalls substantially perpendicular to the base wall, each of the two sidewalls comprises a second bridge, and the second bridge has a configuration same as a configuration of the first bridge.

7. The electronic device enclosure of claim 1 , wherein the securing tray comprising a first securing plate, and the first securing plate defines a cutout to accommodate the hook to extend through the first securing plate.

8. The electronic device enclosure of claim 7 , wherein the securing tray further comprising a second securing plate, the outer tray comprises a first flange and a second flange, the first flange is secured to the first securing plate, and the second flange is secured to the second securing plate.

9. The electronic device enclosure of claim 1 , further comprising a rear plate attached to the inner tray, the rear plate defining a sliding slot, and the inner tray comprising a clipping member slidably received in the sliding slot.

10. An electronic device enclosure comprising: an inner tray comprising a bottom plate; and

an outer tray receiving the inner tray and comprising a base wall;

the base wall comprising a first bridge; the first bridge comprising a first mounting panel substantially parallel to the base wall; the first mounting panel being located on a first plane, and the base wall being located on a second plane below the first plane; wherein an area of the first mounting panel is less than an area of the base wall excluding an area of the first bridge, and the base wall is engaged with the bottom plate via the first mounting panel by attaching the first mounting panel to the bottom plate, to decrease a contacting area between the base wall and the bottom plate; and

a securing tray secured to a front side and a top side of the inner tray and a decorating plate attached to the securing tray, the decorating plate comprising a hook, the outer tray comprising a clipping piece on a sidewall substantially perpendicular to the base wall, and the hook extending through the securing tray and engaged with the clipping piece.

11. The electronic device enclosure of claim 10 , wherein the first bridge further comprises two first connecting panels; each of the two first connecting panels is connected to an opposite edge of the first mounting panel; and each of the two first connecting panels is slanted relative to the base wall.

12. The electronic device enclosure of claim 11 , wherein an obtuse angle is defined between each of the two first connecting panels and the first mounting panel.

13. The electronic device enclosure of claim 11 , wherein the outer tray further comprise two sidewalls substantially perpendicular to the base wall, each of the two sidewalls comprises a second bridge, and the second bridge has a configuration same as a configuration of the first bridge.

14. The electronic device enclosure of claim 10 , wherein the first mounting panel defines a first receiving hole, the bottom plate comprises a first post engaged in the first receiving hole, and a gap is defined between the bottom plate and the first mounting panel.

15. The electronic device enclosure of claim 10 , wherein the securing tray comprising a first securing plate, and the first securing plate defines a cutout to accommodate the hook to extend though the first securing plate.

16. The electronic device enclosure of claim 15 , wherein the securing tray further comprising a second securing plate, the outer tray comprises a first flange and a second flange, the first flange is secured to the first securing plate, and the second flange is secured to the second securing plate.

17. The electronic device enclosure of claim 10 , further comprising a rear plate attached to the inner tray, the rear plate defining a sliding slot, and the inner tray comprising a clipping member slidably received in the sliding slot.
