Abstract
An anti-tamper mechanism to disable an electronic device during unauthorized physical access includes: a turnover assembly, spring, turnover member, conducting members, and a latch. The turnover body defines a plurality of receiving grooves. Several conducting members are received in the plurality of receiving spaces in a certain and predefined order to enable electrical coupling with the circuit board. The latch includes a supporting bracket, a guiding rod slidably positioned on the supporting bracket, and a latching member positioned on the guiding rod. The latching member engages with the turnover body to hold the turnover member in check, but when the latching member disengages from the turnover body in disassembly, the turnover member displaces the conducting members thereby destroying the certain and predefined order and electrical decouples the circuit board to disable the electronic device.
