Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electronic device includes a fixing structure and an electronic component. The fixing structure includes a base, a locking element, and a fixing element. The base has a first position-limiting portion, a second position-limiting portion, and an assembling portion. The locking element and the fixing element respectively have a first and a second locking portion. When the locking element is assembled to the assembling portion and the first locking portion faces the first position-limiting portion, the fixing element is limited on the first position-limiting portion to lock the second locking portion with the first locking portion. When the locking element is assembled to the assembling portion and the first locking portion faces the second position-limiting portion, the fixing element is limited on the second position-limiting portion to lock the second locking portion with the first locking portion. The electronic component is fixed to the base through the fixing element.
