Abstract

A dustproof cover is used in conjunction with a casing, which at least has a first opening, a second opening, a first engaging part and a first connecting part. The dustproof cover includes a first dustproof part, a second dustproof part, a second engaging part and a second connecting part. The first dustproof part corresponds to the first opening of the casing. The second dustproof part corresponds to the second opening of the casing. The second engaging part corresponds to the first engaging part of the casing. The second engaging part is located between the first dustproof part and the second dustproof part. The second connecting part is connected with the first connecting part of the casing. The first dustproof part is located between the second engaging part and the second connecting part. In addition, an electronic apparatus including the dustproof cover is also provided.

Claims

1. A dustproof cover used in conjunction with a casing, which at least has a first opening, a second opening, a first engaging part and a first connecting part, the dustproof cover comprising:

a first dustproof part corresponding to the first opening of the casing;

a second dustproof part corresponding to the second opening of the casing;

a second engaging part, which corresponds to the first engaging part of the casing, and is located between the first dustproof part and the second dustproof part; and

a second connecting part connected with the first connecting part of the casing, wherein the first dustproof part is located between the second engaging part and the second connecting part,

wherein when the first opening is in a shielded state and the second opening is in an exposed state, the first dustproof part covers the first opening of the casing, the second dustproof part is opened to expose the second opening of the casing, and the second engaging part engages with the first engaging part of the casing, and

wherein the first opening and the second opening respectively correspond to a first electronic element module and a second electronic element module.

2. The dustproof cover according to claim 1, wherein the first connecting part is a button.

3. An electronic apparatus, comprising:

a casing, which at least has a first opening, a second opening, a first engaging part and a first connecting part; and

a dustproof cover, which comprises;

a first dustproof part corresponding to the first opening of the casing,

a second dustproof part corresponding to the second opening of the casing,

a second engaging part, which corresponds to the first engaging part of the casing and is located between the first dustproof part and the second dustproof part, and

a second connecting part connected to the first connecting part of the casing, wherein the first dustproof part is located between the second engaging part and the second connecting part,

wherein when the first opening is in a shielded state and the second opening is in an exposed state, the first dustproof part covers the first opening of the casing, the second dustproof part is opened to expose the second opening of the casing, and the second engaging part engages with the first engaging part of the casing.

4. The electronic apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the first connecting part is a button.

5. The electronic apparatus according to claim 3, further comprising:

a first electronic element module, which is corresponding to the first opening of the casing; and

a second electronic element module, which is corresponding to the second opening of the casing.
