摘要：The described embodiments relate to embedding a threaded insert into a thin-walled housing. A recess can be formed with a machining tool that forms a recess in a thickened portion of the thin-walled housing. In some embodiments, the recess can be formed along one of the walls of the thin-walled housing in a location having highly a constrained amounts of space available. Once the recess is formed a threaded insert can be pressed into the recess. An interference fit can be utilized to lodge the press-nut securely within the recess. Alternatively, a retaining member can be positioned across a front portion of the recess to trap the threaded insert between the retaining member and a rear surface of the recess.

主权项：1. An electronic device, comprising: a housing, comprising a first wall and a second wall, the first wall adjacent to the second wall; a protrusion extending from the first wall and towards the second wall, the protrusion comprising a concave surface defining a recess; and a threaded insert trapped within the recess by a plurality of retaining members extending across the recess and in front of at least a portion of the threaded insert, wherein the threaded insert is configured to receive a threaded fastener for securing an internal component against the first wall.
