Cabinet of electronic device for housing electronic components and electronic device having the cabinet

An electronic device comprising a cabinet which houses electronic components therein,

• said cabinet including:
• a chassis on which said electronic components are provided;
• and
• a pair of upper and lower housing members that hold said chassis between them and house said electronic components, wherein said chassis forms a base plate for said upper housing member and an upper plate for said lower housing member;
• wherein said upper housing member and said lower housing member are of different sizes, such that a portion of said chassis protrudes from an edge of one of said upper and lower housing members while being coextensive with a corresponding edge of the other of said upper and lower housing members.

A cabinet of an electronic device, which houses therein electronic components of the electronic device, comprising:

• a rigid central chassis;
• an upper case formed above said central chassis, said central chassis being coupled to said upper case to form a base of said upper case;
• and
• a lower case formed below said central chassis, said center chassis being coupled to said lower case to form an upper plate of said lower case;
• wherein said upper case and said lower case are of different sizes, such that a portion of said chassis protrudes from an edge of one of said upper and lower cases while being coextensive with a corresponding edge of the other of said upper and lower cases.

An electronic device comprising a cabinet which houses electronic components therein,

• said cabinet including:
• a chassis on which said electronic components are provided;
• and
• a pair of housing members that hold said chassis between them and house said electronic components;
• wherein
• said pair of housing members and chassis are made integral with each other by a screw inserted into a screw hole formed in one of said housing members;
• wherein each of said pair housing member are of different sizes, such that a portion of said chassis protrudes from an edge of one housing member while being coextensive with a corresponding edge of the other of said housing members.

An electronic device comprising a cabinet which houses electronic components therein,

• said cabinet including:
• a chassis on which said electronic components are provided;
• and
• a pair of housing members that hold said chassis between them and house said electronic components;
• wherein when said electronic device is set up in horizontal orientation, in which said chassis is horizontal with respect to the floor and said pair of housing members are put on top of another, the housing member of said pair of housing members, that is positioned on the top has a volume that is larger than the housing member that is positioned on the bottom;
• wherein said housing member that is positioned on the top protrudes farther forward, on a front surface side that faces the user, than said housing member that is positioned on the bottom;
• and wherein
• switches are provided on said front surface side of said housing member that is positioned on the top.

An electronic device comprising a cabinet which houses electronic components therein,

• said cabinet including:
• a chassis on which said electronic components are provided;
• and
• a pair of housing members that hold said chassis between them and house said electronic components;
• wherein said pair of housing members hold said chassis between them so that part of said chassis is exposed, and
• wherein the degree of freedom in a shape of said cabinet can be increased by changing relative positions of said pair of housing members.

An electronic device comprising a cabinet which houses electronic components therein,

• said cabinet including:
• a chassis on which said electronic components are provided;
• and
• a pair of upper and lower housing members that hold said chassis between them and house said electronic components, wherein said chassis forms a base plate for said upper housing member and an upper plate for said lower housing member;
• a power source circuit board for supplying a power source to the device;
• and
• a control board that controls the electronic device wherein
• said power source circuit board and said control board are arranged on opposite sides with said chassis positioned between them.
