Abstract

A server rack for improving opening and closing convenience of computer servers includes a base dock and an upper lid. The base dock has an upper beam bridging two opposite ends thereof. The upper beam has a latch structure. The upper lid is mounted on the based dock and includes a hook structure corresponding to and engageable with the latch structure for coupling the base dock and the upper lid. The latch structure is movable by the hook structure to release the coupling of the base dock and the upper lid. Hence the server rack may be easily opened or closed for replacing the electronic devices in the server during repair operations.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The invention relates to a server rack adopted for use on computer servers, and particularly to a server rack that may be opened or closed easily without using hand tools for replacing electronic devices in the server to facilitate repairs and maintenance. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Opening a server rack to replace damaged electronic devices is a task frequently performed in repairs and maintenance operations. The general server rack adopts a design that includes an upper lid and a base dock with corresponding screw holes formed thereon. Screws are used to engage with the screw holes to fasten the upper lid to the base dock. Such a design is not convenient for doing repairs and maintenance because repair people have to use hand tools to unfasten the screws to replace the electronic elements. [0003] To remedy this problem, designing a server rack with improved opening and closing features to facilitate replacement of the electronic devices in the...
