Abstract

A bent metal plate for an electronic device includes a spring arm segment bent from one end of a mounting segment, and an abutting segment bent from the spring arm segment, and cooperating with the mounting segment and the spring arm segment to define a buffer space with an opening. A first shielding segment is bent from the abutting segment to block an upper portion of the opening. A second shielding segment is bent from the other end of the mounting segment to block a lower portion of the opening, cooperates with the first shielding segment to define a gap therebetween, and has a blocking portion extending through the gap and into the buffer space to deny access to the buffer space through the gap.
