Patent ID: 7593221

Claim:
An anti-vibration and anti-EMI frame for receiving a hard disk drive therein and holding the hard disk drive in a drive bay of an electronic device, comprising: an electrically conductive casing having a plurality of side panels defining a receiving space therein, the side panels each having an inner surface and an outer surface facing toward at least one inner wall surface of the drive bay, and the electrically conductive casing having at least one access opening, so that a hard disk drive is held in the receiving space of the electrically conductive casing via the access opening; a plurality of first elastic members integrally formed on at least one side panel of the electrically conductive casing, each of the first elastic members comprising at least one convex portion protruded from the outer surface of the side panel of the electrically conductive casing; and a plurality of second elastic members integrally formed on the at least one side panel of the electrically conductive casing, the offset elastic member second elastic members comprising at least one convex portion having an offset of protrusion larger than that of the convex portions of the first elastic members, wherein a vertical height of the second elastic members measured from the at least one side panel is larger than a vertical height of the first elastic members, and wherein the first and second elastic members are arranged such that when the hard disk is normally held in the receiving space of the electrically conductive casing, the convex portions of the second elastic members are in tight contact with the inner wall surface of the drive bay while the convex portions of the first elastic members are not in contact with the inner wall surface of the drive bay.
