Abstract
An anti-vibration and anti-EMI frame includes an electrically conductive casing having a plurality of side panels, a front opening and a rear opening for receiving a hard disk drive therein before being fixed in an electronic device. The casing is integrally formed on the side panels with a plurality of outward protruded elastic members, and at the rear opening with a stop plate and two mounting plates. The stop plate prevents the hard disk drive from moving out of the casing via the rear opening thereof; the casing is fixed in the electronic device by threading screws through the mounting plates into the electronic device; and the elastic members on the casing are internally in contact with the electronic device. Therefore, the casing protects the hard disk drive against vibration and shields electromagnetic interference to and from the hard disk drive.
