Attachment for preventing liquid from adhering to electronic component

摘要

An attachment capable of preventing liquid from adhering to a specific electronic component within an electronic device. An electronic substrate has an attachment which can be attached to and detached from the electronic substrate. The attachment has an attachment part detachably attached to an edge of the electronic substrate; and a shield part connected to or integrally formed with the attachment part. The attachment part is a clip-like member having a certain degree of elasticity, and is configured to grip an edge of the electronic substrate so that the attachment is held at a predetermined place. The shield part has an inclined surface, and is configured to shield the electronic component so that liquid, such as a splash or droplet moving toward the electronic component, does not adhere to the component when the attachment is held at the predetermined place.

主权项

1. An attachment for protecting an electronic component from liquid, the electronic component mounted on an electronic wiring substrate of an electronic device and enclosed inside a casing with the electronic wiring substrate, the attachment comprising:
an attachment part that is configured to grip over a side edge of the electronic wiring substrate, the electronic wiring substrate being a planar board with the electronic component mounted thereon, the attachment part located inside the casing, and is detachably attached to the electronic wiring substrate; and a shield part located inside the casing, the shield part being connected to or integrally formed with the attachment part, the shield part being configured to shield the electronic component to be protected from a splash or droplet that is moving toward the electronic component inside the casing, wherein the shield part has an inclined surface which guides the splash or the droplet that is moving towards the electronic component away from the electronic component once the splash or droplet engages with the shield part, so that the splash or the droplet flows to a portion of the electronic device other than a location where the electronic component is located, and wherein the attachment part includes two legs that are arranged one on each side of the electronic component and are also located on a surface of the electronic wiring substrate where the electronic component is mounted.
