Patent ID: 7599179

Claim:
An electronic device comprising: a chassis of said electronic device enclosing said electronic device, and comprising a base plate extending along a side of said electronic device, said base plate comprising at least one first limiting member and at least one second limiting member extending away from said base plate respectively to commonly define a space between said at least one first limiting member and said at least one second limiting member beside said base plate; a fan of said electronic device functioning to cool said electronic device, and removably attachable to said base plate to be located in said space and air-communicable with an outside of said electronic device through said base plate, said fan being confined in said space by said at least one first limiting member and said at least one second limiting member respectively to block movement of said fan along a first type of directions parallel to said base plate, and being confined in said space by said at least one first limiting member exclusively to block another movement of said fan along a second type of directions perpendicular to said base plate; and a securing member removably attachable to said base plate beside said space, and restorably movable between a first position thereof where said securing member engages with said fan to block both said movement of said fan along said first type of directions and said another movement of said fan along said second type of directions, and a second position thereof where said securing member disengages from said fan to allow both said movement of said fan and said another movement of said fan; wherein a blocking protrusion integrally extends from said securing member; the blocking protrusion abuts on said fan for blocking both said movement of said fan along said first type of directions when said securing member is in said first position, and is removed away from said fan when said securing member is in said second position.
