Abstract

An electronic device includes a casing, an electronic component received in the casing, and a fixing member. The casing includes a cutout defined in a side wall thereof for assembly or disassembly a heat dissipation member into or out of the electronic device. The fixing member is connected to the top wall of the casing. The fixing member includes an elongated pole, a guiding pole connected to an outer end of the elongated pole and located adjacent to the cutout, and a resilient element at an inner end of the elongated pole and located over the electronic component. The resilient element is compressed and abuts the heat dissipation member when the heat dissipation member is assembled into the electronic device to contact with the electronic component.
