Abstract

A bezel mounting assembly includes a bezel, a front panel, a lock member, and an operation member attached to the front panel. The front panel has a number of slits, two locking holes, and a through hole. The bezel forms a number of hooks engagingly received in the slits of the front panel. The lock member includes a central beam, two side plates, and a resilient portion attached to the bezel and biasing the central beam. Each side plate includes a catch engagingly received in each locking hole of the front panel. The operation member includes a drive body and a press body. When the drive body is pressed downwardly, the press body is rotated accordingly to press the central beam downwardly. The catches and the hooks are thereby released from engagement, then the bezel is fully detached from the front panel.
