Abstract

A computer mainframe and stand arrangement includes a stand and a computer mainframe supported on the stand, wherein the stand has an oblique front panel and an oblique riser rose behind the front panel, the riser having a plurality of air vents and coupling holes; the computer mainframe is supported on the riser above the front panel of the stand, having a substantially U-shaped, fixed handle, a holding space defined between the handle and a front side wall thereof and adapted for holding case-packed computer readable disks on the front panel of the stand above a stop block at the front panel, and a plurality of coupling rods raised from a back side wall thereof and respectively coupled to the coupling holes of the stand.

Claims

1. A computer mainframe and stand arrangement comprising a stand, and a computer mainframe supported on said stand, wherein said stand comprises a front panel obliquely backwardly sloping at the front side thereof, a riser rose behind said front panel and sloping in same direction, a stop block integral with said front panel at a bottom side, and a plurality of coupling holes respectively formed on said riser;

said computer mainframe is supported on said riser above the front panel of said stand, comprising a substantially U-shaped, fixed handle, a holding space defined between said handle and a front side wall thereof and adapted for holding case-packed computer readable disks on the front panel of said stand above said stop block, and a plurality of coupling rods raised from a back side wall thereof and respectively coupled to the coupling holes of said stand.

2. The computer mainframe and stand arrangement of claim 1 wherein said coupling holes of said stand each are formed of a round hole and an elongated positioning hole downwardly extended from the round hole, and said coupling rods of said computer mainframe each have a neck adapted for engaging into the elongated positioning holes of said coupling holes after insertion of said coupling rods into the round holes of said coupling holes.

3. The computer mainframe and stand arrangement of claim 1 wherein said riser of said stand has a plurality of air vents for dissipation of heat from said computer mainframe.
