ELECTRONIC APPARATUS INCLUDING FIXING STRUCTURE FOR FIXING SUBSTRATE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18163283 titled 'ELECTRONIC APPARATUS INCLUDING FIXING STRUCTURE FOR FIXING SUBSTRATE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic apparatus with a housing, a display module, and a first substrate fixed to the housing using a fixing structure. The fixing structure includes a boss, a reinforcing member, and a screw.

  • The electronic apparatus includes a housing, display module, and a first substrate.
  • The first substrate is fixed to the housing using a fixing structure.
  • The fixing structure includes a boss, a reinforcing member, and a screw.
  • The boss protrudes from the housing and has a screw hole.
  • The reinforcing member is placed on the first substrate.
  • The screw passes through the boss and the reinforcing member.
  • The boss supports the second surface of the first substrate.
  • The extension portion of the boss protrudes to the first surface of the first substrate.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, or laptops could benefit from this fixing structure.
  • Any electronic apparatus with a display module and a substrate that needs to be securely fixed to a housing.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a secure fixing structure for the first substrate inside the housing.
  • Ensures stability and durability of the electronic apparatus.
  • Prevents any movement or detachment of the first substrate during use.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Simplifies the assembly process of the electronic apparatus.
  • Enhances the overall structural integrity of the device.
  • Reduces the risk of damage or malfunction due to loose or detached components.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic apparatus includes a housing, a display module disposed inside the housing and forming a portion of the surface of the electronic apparatus, a first substrate which is disposed inside the housing, and includes a first surface facing the display module and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a fixing structure for fixing the first substrate to the housing. The fixing structure includes a first boss protruding from the inner surface of the housing toward the first substrate and defining a first screw hole, a reinforcing member disposed on the first substrate, and a screw passing through the first boss and the reinforcing member. The first boss includes a support portion, which supports a second surface of the first substrate, and an extension portion, at least a portion of which extends from the support portion and protrudes to a first surface of the first substrate.
