Patent ID: 7385830

Claim:
An electronic device comprising: a printed circuit board (PCB) defining a plurality of through holes therein; a chassis comprising a supporting board, the supporting board having a plurality of standoffs corresponding to the through holes of the PCB; and a plurality of clips mounted on the PCB, each of the clips comprising a deformable portion for engaging with the standoff; wherein the standoffs are inserted into the corresponding through holes of the PCB and slide in the corresponding through holes relative to the clips in a first direction to press and resiliently deform the deformable portions of the corresponding clips along a direction towards the PCB, engagement between the standoffs and the deformable portions of the corresponding clips prevents the standoffs from sliding in a second direction reverse to the first direction; wherein a mounting opening is defined in each of the clips and extends into the deformable portion thereof, and comprises a guiding opening for having the standoff passing through and a securing opening for preventing the standoff disengaging from the deformable portion of the corresponding clip, an end of each of the standoffs passes through the guiding opening of each of the corresponding mounting openings, and presses and deforms the corresponding deformable portion of each of the corresponding clips toward the PCB when the standoffs slide into the corresponding securing openings thereof.
