[0002] In recent years, calculator devices have developed rapidly. With the evolution of the times, calculator devices can be seen everywhere, evolving into what we now call computers. Computers have a variety of execution and calculation functions to meet people's needs. Personal computers provide entertainment, word processing, and video playback functions in home life. Industrial computers provide control, monitoring, and calculation services for factory operations, while automotive computers provide multimedia entertainment for drivers and passengers, as well as real-time information reception functions. Overall, computers have become an indispensable device in human society.
[0003] Existing computers or servers all use chassis to house electronic components. Computers, CPUs, or graphics adapters generate waste heat during operation. Although high-performance or high-end CPUs or graphics adapters are currently equipped with heat dissipation devices such as heat sinks or fans to cool down, if the temperature inside the chassis cannot be effectively dissipated, there is still a risk of thermal shutdown or component damage.
[0004] The current solution involves adding external cooling to the chassis to draw in cool air and blow it towards the heat source inside the chassis. However, the existing fans are fixed to the rear of the chassis, which limits their heat dissipation effect. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0023] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, this is an embodiment of the panel structure 1 of the computer chassis of the present invention. The present invention provides a panel structure 1 of a computer chassis for assembly and bonding to the front of a computer case 2 to form a computer chassis structure. The panel structure 1 of the computer chassis is mainly composed of a panel body 11, a plurality of covers 12 and a plurality of cooling fans 13.
[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the panel body 11 is a light-transmitting or mirror-like panel, such as a glass panel or an acrylic panel. The panel body 11 has an outer side 111 and an inner side 112, and the panel body 11 is provided with a plurality of perforations 113, and each perforation 113 penetrates the outer side 111 and the inner side 112 of the panel body 11. Each cover 12 is sequentially and movably connected to each perforation 113 on the outer side 111 of the panel body 11 to close each perforation 113. Each cover 12 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 121, and each cooling fan 13 is sequentially arranged on the inner side 112 of the panel body 11, and each cooling fan 13 is respectively facing each perforation 113.
[0025] In terms of design, each perforation 113 is provided with at least one locking part 114, and each cover 12 is provided with a corresponding locking part 122 that can engage with the locking part 114. The locking part 114 is a protrusion (e.g., a post) disposed on the inner wall of the perforation 113. Figure 2, Figure 3 As shown), the card slot 122 is an L-shaped slot provided on the cover 12 (as shown). Figure 3 As shown), this allows each cover 12 to be movably and securely attached to the outer surface 111 of the panel body 11. Of course, the attachment method is not limited to the above-described rotational engagement method. For example, by providing magnetic materials that can attract each other on the perforation 113 and the cover 12, or by other interlocking mechanisms, the purpose of allowing the cover 12 to be movably and securely attached to the outer surface 111 of the panel body 11 can also be achieved.
[0026] In addition, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the panel structure 1 of the computer chassis of this utility model further includes an inner frame 14, which has an inner side 141 and an outer side 142. The outer side 141 of the inner frame 14 is for engaging with the inner side 112 of the panel body 11, while the inner side 141 of the inner frame 14 is for engaging with the computer case 2 (e.g., Figure 1 As shown, each cooling fan 13 is sequentially arranged between the outer side 142 of the inner frame 14 and the inner side 112 of the panel body 11, and each cooling fan 13 is directly facing each of the above-mentioned perforations 113, so that the airflow generated after the cooling fan 13 is started can flow in and out through the perforations 113. The inner frame 14 is provided with a plurality of locking holes 143, so that the cooling fan 13 can be fixed to the outer side 142 of the inner frame 14 by locking.
[0027] Therefore, in practice, after the cooling fan 13 is sequentially installed in the perforations 113 on the inner side 112 of the panel body 11, and the cover 12 on the other side of the perforations 113 is also installed on the outer side 111 of the panel body 11, the airflow generated by the cooling fan 13 after it is started can flow in and out through the perforations 113 and the ventilation holes 121 on the cover 12, forming a heat dissipation channel on the front panel body 11 of the computer case 2 (e.g., Figure 4 , Figure 5 (As shown).
[0028] Therefore, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0029] 1. Through the design of this utility model, a panel design with airflow channels can be formed on the front of the computer case, providing more heat dissipation channels in addition to the conventional rear air outlet of the computer case, so that the heat accumulated inside the computer case can be dissipated quickly and effectively.
[0030] 2. This utility model utilizes a design where the cooling fan is hidden in the front of the panel body. The structure is simple and easy to assemble or replace. The front cover of the panel body can be disassembled and replaced. With the panel body designed to be light-transmitting, it can bring consumers a different visual experience, thereby enhancing the competitiveness of computer case sales.
