Embodiment Construction

[0034] overview

[0035] 1-23 generally illustrate a tower computer 10 having a sheet metal chassis 12 . The chassis 12 has a plurality of separate compartment sections 300, 570, 740 for housing a plurality of computer components. The individual compartments include a first compartment 570 in which is conveniently detachably housed a power supply assembly without any of the other computer components.

[0036] Chassis appearance

[0037] Although the computer case 12 has been generally described above, the case and the computer components mounted within the case will be described in more detail below. 1-5 illustrate a computer 10 that includes a sheet metal enclosure 12 having an exterior surface 14 and an interior surface 16 . The center of the chassis is at the intersection of the longitudinal axis XX, the transverse axis YY and the vertical axis ZZ. (Says "horizontal" and "vertical" are here assumed to be the normal operating positions of the computer or dependent compon...

Abstract

A tower computer including a sheet metal housing having a plurality of separate bays housing a plurality of computer components, the plurality of separate bays including a first bay; and a power supply assembly readily removeably mounted in the first bay exclusive of any other of the plurality of computer components.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to computers and, more particularly, to a computer in a stand configuration having a modular power supply assembly arranged in a separate compartment. Background technique [0002] Since the introduction of the personal computer about two decades ago, the chassis or "cassette" that houses basic computer components such as the motherboard, power supply, and various drives has continued to shrink. One reason for this is that computer peripherals have become increasingly available and affordable, thus competing with computers for desktop space. For example, it is not uncommon for a modern computer user to have a computer, mouse, keyboard, 21-inch monitor, personal printer, and scanner on his desktop, whereas twenty years ago a typical desktop Nothing but a typewriter or calculator. [0003] A common technique used by designers today to reduce the desktop footprint of a computer is to use a vertical configuration. A standar...
