Dustcover device for data storage devices

A dustcover device assembly comprising:

• an optical disk drive comprising a tray;
• a bezel defining an opening for the tray sliding into or out from the optical disk drive;
• a dustcover member comprising a dustcover mounted to the bezel and a frame engaging with the dustcover and rotatablely attached to the bezel, the frame including a driving arm;
• and
• a resilient member installed between the bezel and the dustcover member;
• wherein
• when the tray slides into the optical disk drive, the resilient member drives the dustcover to move upwardly to a fist position, while when the tray slides out from the optical disk drive, the tray exerts a force on the driving arm of the dustcover member to cause the dustcover to downwardly move to a second position.

An electronic appliance comprising:

• a bezel defining at least one opening;
• an electronic device having an ejectable tray in alignment with said opening;
• a dustcover member mounted inside the bezel, the dustcover member comprising a dustcover slidable between a first position in which the dustcover shields said opening, and a second position in which the dustcover exposes said opening;
• at least one resilient member connecting the dustcover member and the bezel;
• wherein the ejectable tray drives the dustcover member to slide away from said opening, and said resilient member draws the dustcover member back to the first position.

An electronic appliance comprising:

• an enclosure having a bezel defining at least one opening to communicate outside of said enclosure with inside thereof;
• an internal device disposed next to said at least one opening and exposable thereto;
• a dustcover attached to said bezel, and movable between a first position where said dustcover fully shields said opening with a side thereof flush with said bezel and a second position where said dustcover moves away from said opening to expose said internal device neighboring said opening to said outside of said enclosure;
• a frame mounting to said bezel and controllably engagable with said dustcover, and rotation of said frame resulting in movement of said dustcover between said first and second positions of said dustcover;
• wherein
• said side of dustcover substantially faces a same direction during movement of said dustcover between said first and second positions thereof.
