Abstract

A shielding assembly includes a hollow frame, a pair of first resilient clips and a cover. The frame defines a receiving room and includes a pair of opposite first sidewalls, a second sidewall, a third sidewall opposite to the second sidewall, and a plurality of platforms configured along at least two diagonal corners of the hollow frame. Each of the resilient clip includes a clamping portion extending to suspend in the receiving room. The first resilient clips and the platforms are cooperatively defining a pair of guiding grooves. The cover is inserted into the guiding grooves and positioned between the platforms and first resilient clips by the clamping portions and the platforms resisting on two sides of the cover respectively.

Claims

1. A shielding assembly, comprising:

a hollow frame, defining a receiving room and comprising a pair of opposite first sidewalls, a second sidewall, a third sidewall opposite to the second sidewall, and a plurality of platforms configured along at least two diagonal corners of the hollow frame;

a pair of first resilient clips, extending from the first sidewalls and toward a center of the hollow frame, respectively, the first resilient clips and the platforms cooperatively defining a pair of guiding grooves, each of the resilient clips comprising a clamping portion suspending in the receiving room; and

a cover, inserted into the guiding grooves and positioned between the platforms and the first resilient clips by the clamping portions and the platforms used to resist the cover respectively.

2. The shielding assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the first resilient clips comprises a guiding portion integrally connected between the corresponding first sidewall and the corresponding clamping portion, the guiding grooves are formed between the guiding portions and the platforms.

3. The shielding assembly as claimed in claim 2, wherein each of the clamping portions comprises a first resisting portion urging the cover, and a first extending portion extending from the first resisting portion and substantially coplanar with the guiding portion.

4. The shielding assembly as claimed in claim 3, further comprising at least one second resilient clip extending from the second sidewall and suspending in the receiving room to urge the cover, wherein the at least one second resilient clip and the second sidewall cooperatively define an accommodating room to receive the cover.

5. The shielding assembly as claimed in claim 4, wherein each of the second resilient clips comprises a second resisting portion resisting the cover and a second extending portion extending from the second resisting portion and away from the cover.

6. The shielding assembly as claimed in claim 5, further comprising at least one third resilient clip configured on the third sidewall to prevent the cover moving away from the frame.

7. The shielding assembly as claimed in claim 6, wherein the third sidewall comprises a first wall to support the cover, and a second wall perpendicular to the first wall, the at least one third resilient clip is configured on the first wall via cutting the first wall and bending outwardly from the hollow frame, thereby at least one cutting hole being formed in the first wall.

8. The shielding assembly as claimed in claim 7, wherein the third sidewall further comprises a folded wall extending from the first wall and folded inwardly to shield the at least one cutting hole.
