[0003] Patent application number: 201822262974.3 proposes a hardware interface board. When the hardware interface board is in use, dust in the air will enter the inner shell of the box body. The activated carbon can absorb the dust in the air to prevent the interface board from falling into the dust and causing damage. When the hardware interface board is not in use, the interaction between the second baffle and the rubber block makes the inner shell of the box body closed, preventing dust and impurities in the air from falling into the interface board, which has a dust-proof effect, extends the service life of the interface board, and is convenient for people to use.
[0004] This device still has some shortcomings. For example, the device needs to be dustproof and a dustproof component is set on the interface board. The size of the interface board becomes larger, resulting in a reduction in the space inside the computer case, affecting the installation of the hard disk inside the case. For this reason, we propose a new type of hardware interface board that can be mounted on the outside of the case, does not take up the case space, is simple to disassemble and assemble, and is convenient and practical.
