ELECTRONIC DEVICE HOUSING AND ASSEMBLY METHOD

摘要

An electronic device (10) includes a first housing (12) of a single piece of material that has first and second spaced apart major walls (26, 28) that extend in lateral directions and at least three side walls (30, 32, 34) extending perpendicular to the lateral directions between the major walls. The major walls and the side walls define an internal cavity (38), and the first housing defines an opening (36) to the internal cavity opposite one of the side walls. At least one support member (52) is within the internal cavity of the first housing adjacent a major walls a side wall thereof. At least one electronic component (74) is contained within the internal cavity, and a first cover (18) is removably affixed over the opening. The support member or the cover contributes to a retention force on the component within the internal cavity.
