[0008] Wherein, the bottom plate has two riveting heads and two fitting grooves. The two riveting heads are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom plate and are both located on the bottom plate. The two fitting grooves are both located on the bottom plate.
[0009] Among them, the Fan support plate has a lower riveting groove and an upper riveting groove. The lower riveting groove is used to connect with the two riveting heads, and the upper riveting groove is used to connect with the PSU support plate.
[0010] Among them, the left side plate also has a clamping hole, and the clamping hole is located on the left side plate.
[0011] A detachable and interchangeable bracket module integrating a PSU and a Fan of the present utility model includes a lower cover bracket, a Fan support plate, a PSU support plate, and an upper cover bracket. The Fan support plate is riveted to the lower cover bracket and is located on the lower cover bracket. The PSU support plate is riveted to the lower cover bracket, is riveted to the Fan support plate, and is located on one side of the lower cover bracket. The upper cover bracket is installed on the top of the lower cover bracket. The lower cover bracket provides installation conditions for the Fan support plate, the PSU support plate, and the upper cover bracket. By means of the lower cover bracket, the Fan support plate, the PSU support plate, and the upper cover bracket, an interchangeable bracket module is formed.
