5 inch DSI LCD Case for Raspberry Pi 4B

EDIT:  2/18/2025 - I noted the “lid” .STL was corrupt and uploaded a replacement

EDIT: 2/19/2025 - Attachment to the LCD board is with M2.5 screws, NOT M3 

I built this model to house a Raspberry Pi 4B that is mounted to a 5 inch DSI LCD touchscreen. The combo is to be used for Klipper and mounted on a Creativity ELF printer frame.   The housing has two mounting pins that engage a mount secured to the extruded printer frame with “T” nuts.  The housing is not elegant, but gets the job done.

The screen being used is this one,  a Hosyond 5 inch DSI LCD touchscreen https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CXTFN8K9

It is an 800x480 display, chosen for two major benefits.  First, the DSI cable includes power as well as signal connections so no other cabling is required.  Second, the display is natively supported so no drivers need to be loaded before use.  Console text will display at boot time.

The model consists of a “box”, “standoff”, “lid”, “lockpin” and “mount”.  There is an opening on the back of the “lid” component for a 4010 fan powered from the GPIO pins.

For assembly, take the Raspberry Pi already attached to the  DSI LCD and attach the “standoff” component to the LCD circuit board using 3 M2.5  screws (correction from M3). Attach 2 “lockpin” components to the “lid” using M3 screws.  Place the Raspberry Pi assembly in the “box”, place the “lid” on the box and secure with M3 screws. The “lid” secures the Raspberry Pi assembly against the “box” screen opening.

Attach the “mount” component to the printer frame with “T” nuts.  The assembled enclosure is attached to the mount via the attached “lockpin” components.  

See the pictures for assembly context and details.   (The  housing attached to the enclosure with servo tape is for USB 3.1 to M.2 SATA SSD adapter used for booting & operation on the RPi 4B).

Fusion 360 source and .STEP files are included as well as the .STL files.
