Patent attributes
A bezel lock system includes a bezel, convert bracket (CB), and lock. The bezel attaches to a chassis panel. The CB slideably secures a latching bracket (LB) of the bezel to a chassis, when in a locked position. The CB slides a length of a release gap along a transverse path from the locked position to a released position. The lock restricts removal of the bezel from the chassis when the lock is engaged in a locked orientation (LO). The lock includes a cam bracket (CamB) that rotates between locked and unlocked orientations. In the LO, the CamB constrains the CB from moving inward on the path by abutting the CB; CB is confined between the LB and CamB. In the unlocked orientation, the CamB is disposed out of the CB's path, allowing the CB to retract inward to the release position, which allows the bezel to detach from the panel.
