Shielding enclosure for electronic equipment

Abstract

One aspect is directed to an improved monolithic cover for an electronic device that is substantially free of fasteners and is at least partially based on a frictional engagement with another portion of an enclosure. A portion of the cover includes a plurality of metal fingers that exert a force that holds a complementary portion of the cover against another component of an enclosure of the electronic device, such as a lip of a bezel, such as a front or rear bezel. The exemplary cover is stainless steel, and a front portion of the cover includes the plurality of metal fingers that are offset relative to a main plane of the cover thereby defining a gap between a main plane of the cover and the offset metal fingers, wherein a lip of another cover is sandwiched and held in the gap.
