Abstract

A computer case for installing computer parts such as a motherboard therein is provided. Two casings (including a first casing and a second casing) of the same size, specification and type are assembled opposite to each other to form a complete case. In this way, the manufacturing cost can be greatly saved, and the finished product can be further equipped with panels or baffle plates of different specifications or types according to user requirements, so as to meet the manufacturing requirements for high customization.

Claims

1. A computer case, for installing a computer motherboard therein, comprising:

a first casing, wherein two sides of the first casing are respectively bent to form a baffle wall, a plurality of heat dissipation holes is formed on a plane of the baffle wall, a leaning portion is disposed at an inner side of one of the baffle walls, a plurality of screw holes is formed near the leaning portion, a positioning portion is disposed at an inner side of the other baffle wall, and a plurality of opposite screw holes is formed on the positioning portion relative to the screw holes; and

a second casing, wherein the second casing is covered over the first casing, and accordingly, a positioning portion of the second casing leans against the leaning portion of the first casing, the positioning portion of the first casing leans against a leaning portion of the second casing, and a screw passes through each screw hole and the corresponding opposite screw hole to complete locking of the two casings,

wherein the first casing and the second casing have the same size, shape, and structure.

2. The computer case according to claim 1, wherein after the first casing and the second casing are assembled, one end is provided for disposing a panel, and the other end is provided for disposing a baffle plate.

3. The computer case according to claim 2, wherein a plurality of screw holes is formed on disposition surfaces of the first casing and the second casing relative to the panel and the baffle plate.

4. The computer case according to claim 3, wherein a plurality of through holes is formed on the disposition surface.

5. The computer case according to claim 4, wherein a rib formed on the panel and the baffle plate is inserted in the through hole.

6. The computer case according to claim 1, wherein a plurality of disposition holes is formed on a bottom plane of the first casing, and is provided for a carrying plate to complete locking through a plurality of screws.

7. A computer case, comprising:

a first casing, wherein two sides of the first casing are respectively bent to form a baffle wall, a plurality of heat dissipation holes is formed on a plane of the baffle wall, and a snapping portion and an opposite snapping portion are formed on a top edge of the baffle wall; and

a second casing, wherein the second casing is covered over the first casing, and accordingly, a snapping portion of the second casing is snapped with the opposite snapping portion of the first casing, and the snapping portion of the first casing is snapped with an opposite snapping portion of the second casing, so as to complete combination of the two casings,

wherein the first casing and the second casing have the same size, shape, and structure.

8. The computer case according to claim 7, wherein a leaning portion is respectively formed on top edges of the two casings.
