Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of computer accessories technology, and specifically to a computer case that allows for changing the power supply mounting position and can be placed in any orientation. Background Technology
[0002] As a component of a computer, the computer case primarily serves to house and secure various computer parts, providing support and protection. In addition, the computer case plays a crucial role in shielding against electromagnetic radiation.
[0003] The overall structure of computer cases in existing technologies is basically fixed. That is, the positions for assembling computer components such as graphics cards, motherboards, and power supplies are fixed and cannot be changed. As a result, USB ports, network ports, DIV ports, HDMI ports, power ports, etc. are usually set on the rear panel of the computer case. This means that only the bottom of the computer case (i.e., the side that contacts the desktop) can be used as a support surface, and other sides of the computer case cannot be used as support surfaces. This is inconvenient to use and causes considerable trouble for users.
[0004] Especially with the current trend of gaming PC cases pursuing vibrant colors, the more LED-lit cooling fans installed, the better the cooling effect, and the better the lighting effects, increasing fun and enhancing the gaming experience. However, existing PC cases have fixed and unchangeable positions for components such as the motherboard and power supply, making it difficult to DIY the installation of these components. This affects the installation of LED-lit cooling fans, and consequently, the lighting effects.
[0005] At the same time, the placement of the computer case will change the position of the internal cooling fans with colorful lights to create dazzling lighting effects, in order to meet the usage requirements of different users. However, the current placement of computer cases is fixed, which makes it impossible to meet the usage requirements of different users.
[0006] In view of the above, the inventors propose the following technical solution. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a computer case that allows for changing the power supply mounting position and can be placed in any orientation.
[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A computer chassis with an adjustable power supply mounting position and arbitrarily oriented orientation includes a chassis frame, four removable and replaceable side panels respectively mounted on the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the chassis frame, a front panel and a rear panel mounted on the front and rear ends of the chassis frame, and a heat dissipation fan module mounted in the chassis frame and capable of illuminating light. The four side panels, the front panel, and the rear panel form a mounting cavity with the chassis frame. The chassis frame contains a mounting bracket for mounting a graphics card and / or motherboard. The computer chassis has a mounting cavity divided into a main mounting cavity and a secondary mounting cavity. The main mounting cavity has at least one first mounting position for accommodating a power supply on the side near the mounting bracket. The secondary mounting cavity has a second mounting position for accommodating a power supply. The power supply is installed in either the first or second mounting position, and its power interface faces or is exposed in the secondary mounting cavity. One of the four side panels has a cable outlet. By assembling the four side panels interchangeably, the side panel with the cable outlet does not serve as a support surface, allowing the computer chassis to be placed on any side.
[0009] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, there are two first mounting positions. The first mounting position is located on the upper part of the main mounting chamber near the mounting frame, and the second mounting position is located on the lower part of the main mounting chamber near the mounting frame.
[0010] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the four side cover plates are identical in size and shape, and each of the four side cover plates is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation holes. The inner sides of the four side cover plates are provided with 45-degree bevels on both sides, and adjacent two side cover plates are connected by 45-degree bevels. The side cover plates are provided with soft rubber sealing caps at the cable outlets. The soft rubber sealing caps are provided with multiple intersecting cracks in the middle, and deformable and resilient baffles are formed between adjacent cracks.
[0011] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the chassis frame is an iron frame, and multiple first strong magnets are provided on the inner side of each of the four side cover plates. Each side cover plate is magnetically fixed to the chassis frame by the first strong magnets, forming a detachable structure.
[0012] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, multiple positioning posts are provided on the inner side of the side cover plate. Correspondingly, positioning grooves adapted to the positioning posts are provided on the upper, lower, left, and right outer surfaces of the chassis frame. The positioning posts are inserted into the positioning grooves to achieve positioning.
[0013] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, a detachable foot pad is also provided at the lower end of the side cover plate, which serves as the support surface. The upper surface of the foot pad is provided with a second strong magnet. The second strong magnet corresponds to and is magnetically attracted to the first strong magnet of the side cover plate, thereby fixing the foot pad to the lower end of the side cover plate, which serves as the support surface.
[0014] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the mounting bracket includes a partition beam fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the chassis frame, a perforated plate mounted on the partition beam, a first mounting plate located below the perforated plate, and a second mounting plate perpendicular to the first mounting plate. The perforated plate has a window, and the motherboard is fixed to the second mounting plate with screws, and all the interface groups on the motherboard are exposed in the window. The graphics card is horizontally fixed to the first mounting plate and is horizontally connected to the motherboard. The first mounting plate can also be rotated 90 degrees relative to the partition beam and then locked onto the partition beam, so that the graphics card is vertically distributed, and the graphics card is connected to the motherboard through a ribbon cable.
[0015] Furthermore, the above technical solution also includes an external desktop USB that can be placed in any position. The external desktop USB is connected to the first USB interface on the motherboard after passing through the cable outlet of the side cover. The external desktop USB has at least one second USB interface on its outer surface. The external desktop USB is also provided with a power button for controlling the computer case to turn on and off and a restart button for controlling the computer case to restart.
[0016] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the external desktop USB is also equipped with several third strong magnets, which are used to attract and fix it to magnetically pleasing objects.
[0017] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, at least three inner walls of the chassis frame (upper, lower, left, right, and rear) are provided with the cooling fan module. The cooling fan module includes a frame that is installed on the chassis frame by quick-release screws and at least one cooling fan installed on the frame. The cooling fan is provided with several LEDs that can emit different colors of light; the front panel is a transparent panel.
[0018] After adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: The present invention can divide the computer case mounting cavity into a main mounting cavity and a secondary mounting cavity, which is equivalent to adding a secondary mounting cavity. This secondary mounting cavity is used for cable routing, so that all cables (such as power cords, USB cables, network cables, high-definition video cables, etc.) are concentrated together and extend out of the computer case through the cable outlet of the cover plate, preventing the cables from being messy, and ensuring the neatness and aesthetics of the entire computer case. At the same time, it is convenient for the power supply to be installed in the first mounting position in the main mounting cavity or in the second mounting position in the secondary mounting cavity, as long as the power interface of the power supply faces or is exposed in the secondary mounting cavity. In order to facilitate the plugging of the power cord, that is, the user can install the power supply in the first mounting position or the second mounting position according to their own preference, which can better realize DIY assembly.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0021] See Figure 1-22 As shown, this is a computer case with a repositionable power supply and the ability to be placed in any orientation. It includes a case frame 1, four removable and replaceable side panels 2 mounted on the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the case frame 1, a front panel 11 and a rear panel 12 mounted on the front and rear ends of the case frame 1, and an illuminated cooling fan module 8 mounted within the case frame 1. The four side panels 2, the front panel 11, and the rear panel 12 form a mounting cavity 10 with the case frame 1. This mounting cavity 10 accommodates a motherboard 6, a graphics card 5, a power supply 3, and the illuminated cooling fan module 8. This is a conventional technology from the prior art.
[0022] The most significant improvement of this invention is as follows: A mounting bracket 13 for mounting a graphics card 5 and / or a motherboard 6 is provided inside the chassis frame 1. This mounting bracket 13 divides the computer chassis mounting cavity 10 into a main mounting cavity 101 and a secondary mounting cavity 102. The main mounting cavity 101 has at least one first mounting position 103 for accommodating a power supply 3 on the side closest to the mounting bracket 13. The secondary mounting cavity 102 has a second mounting position 104 for accommodating a power supply 3. The power supply 3 is installed in either the first mounting position 103 or the second mounting position 104, and its power interface 31 faces or is exposed in the secondary mounting cavity 102. One of the four side panels 2 has a cable outlet 21. By interchangeably assembling the four side panels 2, the side panel 2 with the cable outlet 21 does not serve as a support surface, allowing the computer chassis to be placed on any side. In other words, this invention can divide the computer chassis mounting cavity 10 into a main mounting cavity 101 and a secondary mounting cavity 102, which is equivalent to adding a secondary mounting cavity 102. This secondary mounting cavity 102 is used for cable routing, so that all cables (such as power cords, USB cables, network cables, high-definition video cables, etc.) are gathered together and extend out of the computer chassis through the cable outlet 21 of the cover plate 2, preventing cable clutter and ensuring the neatness and aesthetics of the entire computer chassis. At the same time, it facilitates the installation of the power supply 3 in the first mounting position 103 in the main mounting cavity 101 or in the secondary mounting cavity 102. In the second mounting position 104, as long as the power interface 31 of the power supply 3 faces or is exposed in the secondary mounting chamber 102, it is convenient to plug in the power cord. That is to say, the user can install the power supply 3 in the first mounting position 103 or the second mounting position 104 according to his or her own preference, so as to better realize DIY assembly. The proper installation of the power supply 3 can facilitate the assembly of the light-emitting cooling fan module 8. By properly installing the cooling fan module 8 in a suitable position, the lighting effect can be better displayed, making the lighting effect produced by the cooling fan module 8 better, increasing the fun and enhancing the gaming experience. Furthermore, in this invention, one of the four side cover plates 2 is provided with a cable outlet 21. By assembling the four side cover plates 2 interchangeably, the side cover plate 2 with the cable outlet 21 does not serve as a support surface, allowing the computer case to be placed on any side to meet different usage requirements. At the same time, by placing the computer case on any side, the relative position of the cooling fan module 8 can be adjusted. The colorful lighting effects produced by the cooling fan module 8 can be viewed from different angles, allowing users to choose the angle that best suits their preferences, further enhancing the fun and improving the gaming experience, making this invention highly competitive in the market.
[0023] In the above description, there are two first mounting positions 103. The first mounting position 103 is located on the upper part of the main mounting chamber 101 near the mounting bracket 13, and the second mounting position 103 is located on the lower part of the main mounting chamber 101 near the mounting bracket 13. That is, the power supply can be installed in the first mounting position 103, the second mounting position 103, or the second mounting position 104; in other words, the power supply has three mounting positions, allowing the user to install it in a suitable location according to their usage habits.
[0024] The chassis frame 1 is an iron frame. Each of the four side panels 2 has multiple strong magnets 23 on its inner side. Each side panel 2 is magnetically fixed to the chassis frame 1 by the strong magnets 23, forming a detachable structure. In other words, the four side panels 2 and the chassis frame 1 form a quick-release structure. In actual use, a single pull can remove a side panel 2 for disassembly. Assembly is also very simple; simply place the side panel 2 on the chassis frame 1, and the strong magnets 23 will then magnetically fix it to the chassis frame 1 to complete the assembly. The operation is very simple and convenient.
[0025] To ensure easier assembly of the side cover 2 and the chassis frame 1, and to achieve higher accuracy in their relative positions after assembly, the following design was implemented: Multiple positioning posts 24 are provided on the inner side of each side cover 2. Correspondingly, positioning grooves 14, adapted to the positioning posts 24, are provided on the upper, lower, left, and right outer surfaces of the chassis frame 1. The positioning posts 24 are inserted into the positioning grooves 14 for positioning. In other words, during assembly, the positioning posts 24 must be aligned with the positioning grooves 14 of the chassis frame 1 before the side cover 2 is placed on the chassis frame 1. Then, multiple strong magnets 23 magnetically attach the side cover 2 to the chassis frame 1 to achieve high-precision assembly and ensure that the relative position of the side cover 2 after installation on the chassis frame 1 is unique.
[0026] The four side panels 2 are identical in size and shape, and each side panel 2 is equipped with multiple ventilation holes. These ventilation holes, in conjunction with the cooling fan module 8, dissipate heat from the computer case, achieving better heat dissipation. To improve the stability and aesthetics of the assembly structure, the following design was also implemented: both sides of the inner surfaces of the four side panels 2 are provided with 45-degree bevels, and adjacent side panels 2 are joined together at 45-degree bevels to form a square frame, which is stably fixed to the chassis frame 1. This provides stability to the assembly structure and ensures seamless connection between adjacent side panels 2, enhancing the product's aesthetics and facilitating future disassembly of the side panels 2.
[0027] To improve the protective effect, the side cover 2 is provided with a soft rubber sealing cap 22 at the cable outlet 21. The soft rubber sealing cap 22 has multiple intersecting slits in its center, and a deformable and resilient baffle 221 is formed between adjacent slits. During use, the cable is passed through the intersection of the slits in the soft rubber sealing cap 22, that is, past the baffle 221 and through the soft rubber sealing cap 22. At this time, the baffle 221 can deform and rebound to fit the cable, thus reducing gaps, preventing foreign objects from entering, and improving the protective effect.
[0028] The lower end of the side cover plate 2, which serves as the support surface, is also provided with a detachable foot pad 4. The upper surface of the foot pad 4 is provided with a second strong magnet 41. The second strong magnet 41 corresponds to and is magnetically fixed to the first strong magnet 23 of the side cover plate 2, so that the foot pad 4 is fixed to the lower end of the side cover plate 2, which serves as the support surface. Its assembly structure is simple and easy to disassemble and assemble. After the computer case is placed on any side, the foot pad 4 can be quickly removed and installed on the lower end of the side cover plate 2, which is intended to serve as the support surface. Its operation is extremely simple and its use is extremely convenient.
[0029] The aforementioned support surface is the bottom surface of the computer case after it is placed, for example, the surface that contacts the desktop.
[0030] The specific installation structure of mounting bracket 13 is described below: The mounting bracket 13 includes a partition beam 131 fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the chassis frame 1, a perforated plate 132 mounted on the partition beam 131, a first mounting plate 133 located below the perforated plate 132, and a second mounting plate 134 perpendicular to the first mounting plate 133. The perforated plate 132 has a window 130. The motherboard 6 is fixed to the second mounting plate 134 by screws, and the interface group 61 on the motherboard 6 is exposed in the window 130. The graphics card 5 is horizontally fixed on the first mounting plate 133 and is horizontally connected to the motherboard 6. The first mounting plate 133 can also be rotated 90 degrees relative to the partition beam 131 and then locked on the partition beam 131, so that the graphics card 5 is vertically distributed, and the graphics card 5 is connected to the motherboard 6 through a ribbon cable.
[0031] The first mounting plate 133 has multiple first protrusions 1331 on its left side that are limited by the first positioning holes of the partition beam 131. The right side of the first mounting plate 133 has multiple first screw holes 1332. Screws pass through these first screw holes 1332 and are fixed to the partition beam 131, allowing the first mounting plate 133 to be horizontally mounted on the partition beam 131. The graphics card is horizontally mounted on the first mounting plate 133. Additionally, the upper side of the first mounting plate 133 has multiple second protrusions 1333 that are limited by the second positioning holes of the partition beam 131. The lower side of the first mounting plate 133 has multiple second screw holes 1334. Screws pass through these second screw holes 1334 and are fixed to the partition beam 131, allowing the first mounting plate 133 to be vertically mounted on the partition beam 131. The graphics card is vertically mounted on the first mounting plate 133. By changing the mounting direction of the first mounting plate 133, the mounting direction of the graphics card can be adjusted to meet different usage requirements.
[0032] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 10 As shown, the present invention also includes an external desktop USB 7 that can be placed in any position. In use, the external desktop USB 7 is connected to the first USB interface 611 on the motherboard 6 after passing through the cable outlet 21 of the side cover plate 2 with a data cable 71. The first USB interface 611 is located in the secondary mounting chamber 102, which can better accommodate the data cable 71. The outer surface of the external desktop USB 7 has at least one second USB interface 72. That is to say, the outer surface of the computer case of the present invention does not have USB interfaces, but uses an external desktop USB 7, which makes the outer surface of the computer case of the present invention more beautiful, while protecting the first USB interface 611. Moreover, the external desktop USB 7 can be placed in any position, for example, it can be placed on the desktop, which is convenient for later insertion of USB flash drives, etc., and is extremely convenient to use. Of course, the external desktop USB 7 can be placed on the computer case of the present invention to meet different usage requirements.
[0033] The external desktop USB 7 is also equipped with a power button 74 for controlling the computer case to turn on and off and a restart button 73 for controlling the computer case to restart. This eliminates the need to install the restart button 73 and the power button 74 on the outer surface of the computer case, making the outer surface of the computer case more aesthetically pleasing. At the same time, it can protect the restart button 73 and the power button 74. Furthermore, the restart button 73 and the power button 74 are located on the external desktop USB 7, which can be placed in any position, making it convenient for users to operate and extremely easy to use.
[0034] The external desktop USB 7 is also equipped with several third strong magnets 75, which can be used to attach and fix it to magnetically attachable objects. Specifically, it can be attached and fixed to the side cover plate 2, making it extremely convenient to use.
[0035] The cooling fan module 8 is provided on at least three of the inner walls of the chassis frame 1 (top, bottom, left, right, and rear). Figure 6 As shown, the cooling fan module 8 includes a frame 81 mounted on the chassis frame 1 via quick-release screws and at least one cooling fan 82 mounted on the frame 81. The cooling fan 82 is equipped with several LEDs that emit different colors of light. The front panel 11 is transparent, allowing the colorful lights emitted by the cooling fan module 8 to be clearly seen, further enhancing the fun and improving the gaming experience, giving the invention a strong market competitiveness. Furthermore, the cooling fan module 8 is easy to install.
