ABSTRACT:
A lens cover assembly (200) mounted in an electronic device (300) includes a lens cover (30), and a frame (20). The lens cover includes a base (32), and a column (34) extending from a central area of the base. The base has at least one notch (36) defined therein. The frame has a stepped hole (26) defined by a first circumferential wall (262), a second circumferential wall (264), and a connecting surface (266) connecting the first circumferential wall to the second circumferential wall. At least two blocks (28) extend from the first circumferential wall and overlie the connecting surface. In assembly, the lens cover is received in the stepped hole. Then the base is rotated relative to the frame about an axis of the stepped hole so that the base is sandwiched between the blocks and connecting surface to lock the lens cover in the frame.
