Computing equipment casing having hinged, spring loaded and sliding leaves
First Claim
1. A casing for computing equipment, the casing comprising first and second leaves for mounting the computer equipment, said leaves being hinged together so as to be movable between a folded position in which said first leaf overlies said second leaf, and an open position, said casing further comprising an urging mechanism for urging said leaves toward at least one of said folded and open positions;
- and a base to which said leaves are movably secured so as to allow said second leaf to slide relative to said base whereby in the open position of said leaves part of said base extends under said first leaf so as to provide a support to resist tipping movement when pressure is applied to said first leaf.
