International ClassB21D 039/00AbstractA chassis for containing electromagnetic interference ("EMI") generating equipment and methods of operation and manufacturing thereof. The chassis includes: (1) a cabinet having a base wall, the base wall having hinge race slots located along a forward edge thereof, lances between the hinge race slots and the forward edge forming hinge pins and (2) a door having arcuate hinge races extending from a hinge edge thereof and through corresponding ones of the hinge race slots to cooperate with the hinge pins to form hinges for the door. The hinge races have locking tabs extending laterally therefrom. The locking tabs have bent portions preventing the hinge races from being withdrawn from the hinge race slots.Field of SearchEMIShielding With Shielding Structure Air Computer related support With housing or chassis Specific latching or retaining device Specific chassis or ground With ejector means With specific dielectric material or layer For electronic systems and devices Joining by deforming HINGE MAKING OR ASSEMBLING Retaining clearance for motion between assembled parts Hook in aperture Hinge members formed integrally with closure and closure support Hinge formed by overlapping reentrant flanges on closure and closure support | |
