[0033] Mini host is a kind of computing device with much smaller size than traditional desktop computer, which can provide similar functions as standard desktop computer while occupying less space and being more energy efficient.

[0034] The existing mini host, if the thickness is small, there is a case of relatively large structure size, if the structure size is relatively small, there is a case of relatively large thickness. Based on the above two cases, the mini host is limited by the structure when carrying, resulting in large space occupation, which is inconvenient to carry and use in limited space, such as luggage and backpack when going out. Specifically, mainly because the relatively large structure of the mini host is pressed in the limited space during carrying, the risk of damage is relatively high, and a special storage bag needs to be prepared, when using the storage bag, it needs to be put into the backpack or luggage, the operation is relatively cumbersome, and the mini host needs to be taken out and put in before and after use, which greatly reduces the portability.

[0035] The utility model provides a kind of portable mini host, which can solve the problem of inconvenient use of existing mini host in limited space.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment of the utility model, the portable mini host includes a first host part 100 and a second host part 200. The first host part 100 includes a first host shell 110, a mainboard 120 and a power supply 130 arranged in the first host shell 110. Further, the first host part 100 can also be provided with a fan and other structures, that is, a fan and other structures are arranged in the first host shell 110.

[0037] Further, the second host part 200 is arranged separately from the first host part 100, that is, the first host part 100 and the second host part 200 belong to two parts and can be arranged separately. At this time, when transporting, for the mini host with large thickness or large structure area, the mini host with large structure area or thickness can be changed into a relatively small structure unit through the separate arrangement. When carrying the relatively small structure unit in a limited space, the pressure on the surface of the structure unit is small, and the probability of damage is further reduced. For the user, when carrying, a special storage bag does not need to be prepared, and the mini host can be directly placed in the backpack or luggage. If the mini host needs to be used, it can be directly taken out from the backpack, without other operations (for example, taking the storage bag out of the backpack, and then taking the mini host out of the storage bag). In this way, the portability is effectively improved, thereby solving the technical problems existing in the prior art. At the same time, the relatively small structure unit has more choices for the placement position when placed. For example, it can be placed in the middle layer of the backpack or in the mesh bag in the middle of the luggage, thereby further improving the portability of the mini host itself. Further, the second host part 200 includes a second host shell 210 and a hard disk 220 arranged in the second host shell 210.

The first host part 100 and the second host part 200 are arranged separately through the detachable connection between the second host shell 210 and the first host shell 110. When the mini host needs to be used, the first host shell 110 and the second host shell 210 can be assembled together. When not in use, the mini host can be arranged separately to improve the portability of the mini host. The first host part 100 and the second host part 200 are electrically connected. After the first host shell 110 and the second host shell 210 are connected, the components in the first host shell 110 and the components in the second host shell 210 are electrically connected to realize the assembly of the mini host. In this embodiment, the electrical connection between the components in the first host shell 110 and the components in the second host shell 210 can be realized through the plug interface. It is self-evident that the host shell in the present application has a host shell cover (not shown). When installing the mainboard, graphics card and other hardware, the host shell cover is opened, and then the mainboard, graphics card and other hardware are installed in the host shell. Finally, the host shell cover is connected with the host shell.
