There is disclosed a method for demanufacturing an electronic device in order to minimize an environmental impact. The demanufacturing method may comprise providing a motherboard and a display for manufacturing the electronic device, at least one of which is flexible. The method may further comprise attaching the motherboard and the display to an enclosure having a top portion and a bottom portion and one or more side walls for joining the top and the bottom portions. The method may further comprise the flexible boards or display being peelably removable at the end-of-life. The method may further comprise disposing at least two locking mechanisms on one of the one or more side walls, two of the at least two locking mechanisms being simultaneously releasable with one action of a recycling tool inserted into the two of the at least two locking mechanisms.

An electronic device having a shield structure is disclosed. The shield structure includes a conductive heat diffusion plate that is provided in a position facing a mounting surface of an electronic circuit board on which electronic components, such as a CPU, are mounted, and diffuses heat generated from the CPU, etc.; and a conductive sponge-like member that is firmly fixed to at least either the mounting surface of the electronic circuit board or a surface of the conductive heat diffusion plate which faces the mounting surface of the electronic circuit board, and is provided to separate the CPU, etc. which generate electromagnetic wave noise from antennas.

A mounting element, i.e., a retaining element or clip, for mounting a terminal element at a component housing of a component body by extrusion-coating the component body at least in part with a coating material, which is designed (i) for holding and positioning a terminal element at a component housing of a component body while the component body is being extrusion-coated with a coating material, and (ii) for accommodating at least in part in the interior of a molding tool during the coating, (iii) which includes at least two support elements, and (iv) in which the at least two support elements are designed so that they are supported at an inner surface of the molding tool when the mounting element is held at the component housing of the component body while the component body and the mounting element are accommodated in the interior of the molding tool.

A computer system includes a computer casing having a casing wall having an opening to pass through a connection means; a circuit board having the connection means; and a centering means arranged in the casing, wherein the centering means is formed to cooperate with the circuit board such that the circuit board is centered with respect to the casing wall in a direction of the casing wall in a placing movement so that the connection means takes a predetermined position flush with respect to the opening in the casing wall and can plunge into the opening.

Connector receptacles and device enclosures that can provide proper grounding, improved ventilation, and an aesthetically pleasing appearance. An example can include a device enclosure including an enclosure wall and sleeves for a number of connector receptacles. Each sleeve can electrically contact a shield of a corresponding connector receptacle via a conductive structure, such as a conductive gasket, to provide a good ground path. The sleeves can be narrow at the enclosure wall for improved ventilation and an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Provided is an adapter adapted for a specific single board computer. The adapter is readily usable without taking time and effort to wire and arrange accessories. The adapter includes an adapter body adapted to a specific single board computer selected from a plurality of different single board computers. The adapter body is detachably mountable, in a configuration being fitted with the specific single board computer, on a docking station mounted with one or more accessories. The adapter further includes: one or more receptacle connector components mounted on the adapter body, and being attachable to the main connector components; one or more connector components mounted on the adapter body, and being attachable to receptacle connector components electrically connected to the accessories of the docking station; and one or more wires arranged in the adapter body and electrically connecting the receptacle connector components respectively to the connector components.

An electronic device can include a tubular frame to receive and support electronic components and a shell that defines a portion of the exterior surface of the device and an internal volume sized to encompass the electronic components and tubular frame. The shell can be removably attachable to the tubular frame by a user actuated locking mechanism.

An external electrical connector includes a carrier and a plurality of pins disposed on the carrier. The pins support at least two kinds of PCI-E, USB, HDMI, and DP interfaces, and a part of the pins are selectively transmitting at least two kinds of PCI-E, USB, HDMI, and DP signals. A computer system is further provided.

A water block mounting holder with reinforced structure includes a holder body and a reinforcement structure provided on an upper side of the holder body, and is used with a water block to attach the latter to a heat-producing element mounted on a motherboard. The holder body has a hollow-out central opening and a plurality of through holes spaced along an outer area of the holder body for a plurality of fixing elements provided on the motherboard to extend therethrough and fixedly hold the holder body to the motherboard, so that the holder body is connected to the water block with the opening being fitted around the water block. With the reinforcement structure provided on the holder body, the water block mounting holder has effectively reinforced overall structural strength to avoid pressure deformation thereof.

A computer including a desk portion with a first part and a second part pivotally connected to each other; a set of foldable legs connected to the desk portion; and a computer hardware integrated into the desk portion by damping means.
