[0026] With the continuous development of computer technology, personal computers have gradually entered every household, becoming an indispensable part of people's daily lives. Personal computers have gradually transformed from customized machines from major brand manufacturers to DIY personal computers becoming the mainstream. Now, people's economic conditions allow them to upgrade their personal computers, and DIY enthusiasts, such as "hardware enthusiasts," have gradually emerged.

[0027] Most computer cases nowadays have built-in power supply and hard drive bays for power supply and hard drive installation, but the positions of the power supply and hard drive bays are fixed, which affects the expandability of the case.

[0028] To address the aforementioned issues, this embodiment discloses a chassis with interchangeable power supply and hard drive enclosure, the structure of which is as follows: Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the chassis includes a rack 100 and a base plate 101 disposed on the rack 100. The chassis also includes a power supply mounting bracket 201 and a hard drive mounting bracket 204. The base plate 101 is arrayed with a plurality of first mounting holes 102 and second mounting holes 105, and the distance between each first mounting hole 102 is the same as the distance between each second mounting hole 105. The bottom of the power supply mounting bracket 201 is provided with a first mounting post 202 corresponding to each of the plurality of first mounting holes 102. The bottom of the hard drive mounting bracket 204 is provided with a second mounting post 205 corresponding to each of the plurality of second mounting holes 105. The power supply mounting bracket 201 can be detachably connected to the base plate 101 by engaging the first mounting post 202 with the first mounting hole 102 or the second mounting hole 105 respectively. The hard drive mounting bracket 204 can be detachably connected to the base plate 101 by engaging the second mounting post 205 with the first mounting hole 102 or the second mounting hole 105 respectively.

[0029] In this embodiment, the direction of the first mounting hole 102 intersects perpendicularly with the direction of the second mounting hole 105. This structure can effectively prevent incorrect installation.

[0030] Specifically, the first mounting hole 102 includes a first circular hole 103 and a first tapered hole 104 communicating with the first circular hole 103. The diameter of the first tapered hole 104 is equal to or greater than the diameter of the first mounting post 202 and less than the diameter of the first circular hole 103. The second mounting hole 105 includes a second circular hole 106 and a second tapered hole 107 communicating with the second circular hole 106. The diameter of the second tapered hole 107 is equal to or greater than the diameter of the second mounting post 205 and less than the diameter of the first circular hole 103.

[0031] from Figure 2 It can be seen that the straight lines containing adjacent first mounting holes 102 and adjacent second mounting holes 105 are parallel to the length direction or width direction of the base plate 101, forming an array of first mounting holes 102 and second mounting holes 105; in addition, the straight line tangent to the outermost end of the first conical hole 104 intersects the center of the second circular hole 106, so that the power supply mounting bracket 201 or hard disk mounting bracket 204 maintains a consistent position when installed with the first mounting hole 102 or the second mounting hole 105.

[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, a chassis with interchangeable power supply and hard drive enclosures is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 102 and second mounting holes 105 arranged in an array on the bottom plate 101 of the chassis. The distance between each first mounting hole 102 is the same as the distance between each second mounting hole 105, so that the first mounting post 202 at the bottom of the power supply mounting bracket 201 and the second mounting post 205 at the bottom of the hard drive mounting bracket 204 can be installed with the first mounting hole 102 or with the second mounting hole 105 respectively, thereby realizing the interchangeability of the positions of the power supply mounting bracket 201 and the hard drive mounting bracket 204 and improving the expandability of the chassis.

[0033] Furthermore, a first baffle 203 is connected to the outer end of the first mounting post 202. The diameter of the first baffle 203 is smaller than the diameter of the first circular hole 103 but larger than the diameter of the first mounting post 202. A second baffle 206 is connected to the outer end of the second mounting post 205. The diameter of the second baffle 206 is smaller than the diameter of the second circular hole 106 but larger than the diameter of the second mounting post 205. By setting the first baffle 203 and the second baffle 206, the stability of the power supply mounting bracket 201 and the hard drive mounting bracket 204 is improved after installation.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
