Abstract
An electronic device includes a housing, a display panel, and engagement mechanisms. The housing includes a plurality of fixing blocks placed on corners. Each fixing block defines a blind hole and two grooves set on opposite sides of the blind hole. The display panel includes a plurality of corners. Corners outwardly extend to form first extending portions. Each extending portion defines a positioning hole. The engagement mechanisms each comprises a connection portion, a positioning post fixed to a first surface of the connection portion facing the display panel and housing, and two springs fixed to the first surface of the connection portion and set on opposite sides of the positioning post. The positioning posts pass through the positioning holes and are received into the blind holes, each spring is pressed by an external force to engage with one of the grooves to fix the display panel to the housing.
