    Abstract: Several embodiments for ejecting a SIM tray from an electronic device are disclosed. In some embodiments, a lever positioned behind the tray can be actuated to eject the tray. In some embodiments, a pivot mechanism can be actuated to eject the tray. In other embodiments, a gear mechanism can be actuated to eject the tray. In other embodiments, a spring element can be actuated to eject the tray. In some embodiments, the electronic device may include a key feature that allows the tray to eject only when a tool is used having a mating key feature with the key feature of the electronic device.

    Abstract: A system and method for retaining enclosure components of an electronic device that can experience a range of dynamic forces is disclosed. The electronic device includes a cover component and a housing component. The electronic device also contains a retention system that includes a spring clip and a compressible layer for retaining a portion of the cover component to the housing component. The retention system provides a variable retention force that resists the separation of the cover and housing components. If the electronic device experiences a force that is applied abruptly, such as in the case of an unintentional drop event, the variable retention force is high, increasing the retention between the cover and housing components. If the electronic device experiences a slower and gradual force, such as in the case of intentional disassembly, the variable retention force is low, allowing the disassembly of the electronic device.

    Abstract: An enclosure and a method for forming an enclosure are disclosed. The enclosure may be formed from metal, such as aluminum, and further include a non-metal portion allowing for transmission and receipt of electromagnetic waves. The non-metal portion may be interlocked to the enclosure and in particular, to a region within the enclosure including a first material having a relatively high strength and stiffness compared to the non-metal portion. Interlocking means may include forming dovetail cuts into the enclosure to receive the non-metal portion, a hole or cavity drilled into the enclosure which includes internal threads, and a rod inserted into the first material to provide a tension to the non-metal portion. Methods of assembling internal components using anodization are also disclosed.
