A cover assembly for covering a pivot of an electronic device is disclosed. The pivot connects a first component and a second component of the electronic device. The cover assembly is disposed at one side of the pivot, and the cover assembly includes a first covering element and a second covering element. A first end of the first covering element is connected to the first component, and a second end of the first covering element includes a first limit part. A first end of the second covering element is connected to the second component, and a second end of the second covering element includes a second limit part. The first covering element is overlapped with the second covering element. When the pivot rotates, the first limit part and the second limit part move correspondingly.

Cover assembly and electronic device using the same

A cover assembly applied to an electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a first component and a second component, and an opening is formed between the first component and the second component. The cover assembly includes a cover element, at least one first moving element, at least one second moving element and an elastic element. The cover element is disposed in the opening, attached to the second component, and abutted against the first component. The first moving element is connected to the cover element and includes at least one first moving part. The second moving element is connected to the second component and includes at least one second moving part. The elastic element is connected between the first moving element and the second moving element, and provides an elastic force to make the cover element continuously abutted against the first component and cover the opening.

Electronic device and cover assembly

A fastening module for fastening a data storage device is provided. The data storage device includes first and second positioning apertures. A frame of the fastening module includes a retaining hole, and first and second positioning holes. The data storage device is slidably received in the frame. A securing member of the fastening module includes a main body, a pivot member, and a pin. The main body includes a pivot hole pivotally connected by the pivot member. A securing piece of the pivot member passes through the retaining hole and rotates relative to the main body to fasten the securing member to the frame. When the securing piece passes through the retaining hole, the pin passes through either the first or second positioning hole and inserts into either the first or second positioning aperture to fasten the data storage device at different positions.

Fastening module

A fastening module for fastening a data storage device is provided. A fastening trough is formed at a lower surface of the data storage device. The fastening module includes a frame bracket, a fastening member, and a buckling member. The frame bracket is used for carrying the data storage device. The frame bracket includes a lower frame and two side frames. The side frames are connected to two sides of the lower frame. The lower frame includes a clamping hole. The fastening member is disposed at the clamping hole and inserted into a fastening trough, so as to prevent the data storage device from moving. The buckling member is movably disposed at the side frames to buckle an upper surface of the data storage device.

An assembly for connecting plates is provided. A first plate has a first opening and a second opening; a metal wire is movably connected to one surface of the first plate, and the metal wire includes a bending portion corresponding to the position of the first opening; a spring connects the first plate and the metal wire; a pressing element is fixed on the metal wire and passes through the second opening of the first plate to protrude from the other surface of the first plate. The second plate has a hook. When the first plate and the second plate are assembled, the hook of the second plate passes through the first opening of the first plate, and the bending portion of the first plate prevents the hook from separating from the first opening by tension force of the spring thus to connect the first plate and the second plate.
