Abstract
An electronic equipment contains a circuit board in a casing. The casing encloses a spacing and has a top panel covering the spacing. The circuit board has a pair of end portions and a major surface extending between the pair of the end portions for mounting electronic parts on the major surface. The circuit board is disposed in the spacing of the casing in opposed relation to the top panel. A stay member has an elongated shape extending between the pair of the end portions of the circuit board for reinforcing the major surface of the circuit board. The stay member has a bottom coupling portion disposed in contact with the major surface of the circuit board for coupling with the circuit board, and a top contact portion disposed in contact with a back surface of the top panel for engagement with the casing.
