ABSTRACT:
A card holder (10) for a card (11), such as a PCB, includes a bottom member (13) and a top cover (14) which easily snap together to enclose the card (11) therebetween. The bottom member (13) may be made from a precision hot-flow semi-solid aluminum forging operation, and the top cover (14) may be made as an aluminum stamping. The overall assembly of the card holder (10) has high mechanical strength and rigidity, and the top member (14) merely serves as a cover. A substantially complete EMI shielding is provided, and both members are hard anodized for electrical insulation. The card holder (10) is cost-effective, yet rugged and reliable, and the anodizing provides a pleasing product appearance. An injection molding operation is not necessary, and a separate plastic part is eliminated.
