Claims14
A locking assembly, comprising:
- a guiding post comprising a locking portion comprising a clamp hook formed on a flange of the locking portion;
- and a locking member defining an opening end adjacent to the guiding post, and being sleeved on the locking portion of the guiding post, wherein at least two buffer grooves are formed in the locking member and are substantially parallel to each other and offset on opposite sides of a central axis of the locking member, wherein the at least two buffer grooves extend along a direction of the central axis of the locking member from an end surface of the opening end towards another end of the locking member, such that at least two clamping portions positioned away from the opening end are formed on separate inner walls of the locking member, each clamping portion comprises a plurality of clamping depressions for adjustably engaging with the clamp hook, and the clamp hook is clamped in the at least two clamping portions.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a housing;
- a circuit board detachably positioned in the housing;
- and at least one locking assembly, comprising:
- a guiding post comprising a locking portion comprising a clamp hook formed on a flange of the locking portion;
- and a locking member defining an opening end adjacent to the guiding post, and being sleeved on the locking portion of the guiding post, wherein at least two buffer grooves are formed in the locking member and are substantially parallel to each other and offset on opposite sides of a central axis of the locking member, wherein the at least two buffer grooves extend along a direction of the central axis of the locking member from an end surface of the opening end towards another end of the locking member, such that at least two clamping portions positioned away from the opening end are formed on separate inner walls of the locking member, each clamping portion comprises a plurality of clamping depressions for adjustably engaging with the clamp hook, and the clamp hook is clamped in the at least two clamping portions for fixing the circuit board on the guiding post within the housing.
