Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to an adjustable computer case. Background Technology

[0002] Computer cases, as products frequently used in work and daily life, have become quite mature. However, there are still some areas for improvement in existing computer cases. The power supply is undoubtedly one of the heavier electronic components in a computer case. Based on the principle of hot air rising naturally, power supplies are generally located in the upper corner of the case. With a built-in fan, when installed in the upper corner, the fan can directly exhaust air out of the case, creating an independent cooling channel. A top-mounted power supply also allows for more space at the bottom of the case for installing long graphics cards, large CPU coolers, or multi-drive modules, improving hardware compatibility. Furthermore, the transformers, inductors, and other components inside the power supply generate electromagnetic radiation. When installed in the upper corner, they are further away from sensitive components such as the motherboard and storage devices. Combined with the metal casing of the case, this further shields against interference, improving system stability.

[0003] In existing computer cases, the power supply is typically fixed to the top panel with screws. This method, due to the weight of the power supply, can easily cause localized deformation of the mounting area during long-term use, and there's also the risk of screws coming loose and the power supply falling. Furthermore, a short circuit and fire in the power supply could easily damage other electronic components inside the computer case. While the corner design of the power supply can somewhat reduce the amount of wiring between internal electronic components, it lacks organization, resulting in messy wiring. Therefore, we urgently need a case structure that can stably support and fix the power supply to different specifications, organize internal wiring connections, and protect other electronic components inside the computer case. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an adjustable computer case.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, an adjustable computer chassis includes a chassis and an adjustment component disposed inside the chassis for adjusting the space for placing a power supply. The adjustment component is slidably connected to the chassis vertically. The adjustment component is fixedly connected to the chassis via multiple fixing components. The adjustment component includes a support platform for supporting the power supply. A protective baffle for isolating and protecting the power supply inside the chassis is connected to the support platform. A cable management board for protecting one side of the power supply and routing the power supply cables is also connected to the support platform. The cable management board is connected to the protective baffle.

[0006] After the power supply is fixed inside the chassis, the adjustment components are adjusted according to the size of different power supply specifications to make the support platform fit the bottom of the power supply to support it. This prevents the power supply from deforming the internal connecting components of the chassis due to excessive weight during long-term use. The fixing components are used to stabilize the support platform. The isolation and protection baffle, cable board, and support platform isolate the power supply from the inside of the chassis to prevent the power supply from catching fire and burning other electronic components inside the chassis in the event of a failure. The cable board can be used to assist in the arrangement of wire connections between the power supply and other electronic components.

[0007] Preferably, the ribbon cable board, protective baffle, and two internal walls of the chassis enclose a power supply housing area, and the support platform is located at the bottom of the power supply housing area to support the power supply. Enclosing the power supply housing area can independently isolate the power supply, providing good separation.

[0008] Preferably, the cable tray is provided with cable routing holes for easy cable arrangement. Cable connections between the power supply and other electronic components inside the chassis can be routed through these cable routing holes.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing component includes a plurality of fixing holes disposed on the chassis and a plurality of strip holes disposed on the adjusting component, each corresponding to one of the fixing holes. The strip holes are arranged in a vertical strip shape. The fixing component also includes a locking screw that passes through the strip holes and connects to the fixing holes.

[0010] The locking screw acts as a guide post, fixed to the fixing hole. The slotted hole can move up and down due to the restriction of the locking screw. The adjustment component is then finally positioned by locking the locking screw. Adjustment and fixation are very convenient and quick.

[0011] Preferably, the fixing hole is threaded, and the locking screw is threadedly connected to the fixing hole.

[0012] Preferably, the adjustment assembly further includes a fan mounting plate disposed below and connected to the support platform, the fan mounting plate being provided with a mounting slot for mounting a fan, and an exhaust zone for airflow passing through the mounting slot.

[0013] The adjustment assembly also features a fan mounting plate for securing the fan for heat dissipation. This design optimizes the internal space of the chassis and enhances the structural stability of the adjustment assembly through its top and bottom design.

[0014] Preferably, the fan mounting plate is connected to the chassis on both the left and right sides by a fixing component.

[0015] The left and right sides are adjusted and fixed by fixing components, which can ensure smooth adjustment and uniform force after fixing.

[0016] Preferably, the upper left side of the adjustment component is connected to the chassis via two fixed components arranged vertically, and the upper right side of the adjustment component is connected to the chassis via one fixed component.

[0017] The upper part of the adjustment component is connected on the left and right sides to ensure uniform force distribution, and the three-point connection forms a triangular stable structure to improve the stability of the connection and fixation.

[0018] Preferably, the protective baffle and the fan fixing plate are each provided with at least one cable management through hole for cable management.

[0019] Preferably, the side and top surfaces of the chassis corresponding to the power supply housing area are respectively provided with ventilated heat dissipation areas that allow airflow. The ventilated heat dissipation areas can enhance the contact and convection between the power supply housing area and the external air, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation effect.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] This invention features an adjustment component inside the chassis. This component allows for adjustment of the power supply's placement space according to different power supply sizes and specifications. The adjustment component includes a support platform to support the bottom of the installed power supply, ensuring its stability within the chassis and eliminating the risk of loose screws falling out. The adjustment component also includes an isolation and protective baffle and a cable management board connected to the support platform to isolate the power supply from the chassis interior. This prevents the power supply from catching fire and damaging other electronic components inside the chassis in the event of a power supply failure, thus providing isolation and protection. The cable management board has through-holes for routing cables between the power supply and other electronic components inside the chassis, streamlining the wiring connections within the chassis.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0032] Power supplies are generally quite heavy, and prolonged mounting inside the computer case can easily cause deformation of the mounting area. This necessitates the design of power supply installations with thicker and stronger structures to ensure safety during use. This invention provides an adjustable computer case, such as... Figures 1-8As shown, the system includes a chassis 1 and an adjustment assembly 2 located inside the chassis 1 for adjusting the space for the power supply. The adjustment assembly 2 includes a support platform 3 for supporting the power supply. The support platform 3 is horizontally arranged and supports the installed computer power supply. The support platform 3 is adjustable and fixed vertically to ensure it fits snugly against the bottom of the power supply, preventing deformation of the power supply mounting position inside the chassis 1 and reducing the structural cost of the power supply mounting position. A protective isolation baffle 4 is connected to the support platform 3 to isolate the power supply inside the chassis 1. The power supply is typically located in a corner of the chassis 1. Considering the possibility of users using inferior power supplies, which may use inferior capacitors, resistors, and other components, long-term use can easily lead to overheating, breakdown, short circuits, and even fires. Alternatively, if the power consumption of the computer hardware exceeds the rated power of the power supply, the power supply will be under high load for a long time, increasing component heating and potentially burning out internal circuits or even causing a fire. Therefore, the protective isolation baffle 4 is installed to protect other components inside the chassis 1. The support platform 3 is also connected to a cable tray 5 for protecting one side of the power supply and for routing the power supply cables. The cable tray 5 has cable routing holes 6 for easy cable routing, which allows the power supply to connect to the cables of other components inside the chassis 1 in an orderly manner. The cable tray 5 is connected to the protective baffle 4. The support platform 3, the protective baffle 4, and the cable tray 5 enclose three sides of the power supply, forming a three-sided protective structure. The cable tray 5, the protective baffle 4, and the two internal walls of the chassis 1 enclose a power supply housing area. The power supply is installed in the power supply housing area. The top plate 7 of the chassis 1 has multiple power connection positions 8. The power supply is connected and fixed to the chassis 1 through the power connection positions 8. The power connection positions 8 are mounting holes and can be implemented using any existing technology. The power supply is fixedly connected to the power connection positions with screws. The support platform 3 is located at the bottom of the power supply housing area to support the power supply, forming a stable structure for fixing the power supply.

[0033] The adjustment component 2 can be slidably connected to the chassis 1. After the power supply is installed inside the chassis 1, the adjustment component 2 is adjusted up and down to drive the support platform 3 to support the power supply. It can be used for a variety of power supplies of different specifications and has wide applicability. The adjustment component 2 is fixedly connected to the chassis 1 through multiple fixing components 9 to fix the adjusted adjustment component 2 and ensure its stability.

[0034] The fixing component 9 includes multiple fixing holes 10 on the chassis 1 and multiple strip holes 11 on the adjusting component 2, each corresponding to one of the fixing holes 10. The strip holes 11 are arranged vertically. The fixing component 2 also includes locking screws that pass through the strip holes 11 and connect to the fixing holes 10. The fixing holes 10 are threaded, and the locking screws are threadedly connected to the fixing holes 10. After connection, the locking screws act as guide posts for the vertical movement of the strip holes 11. The multiple locking screws and the strip holes 11 cooperate to force the adjusting component 2 to move only up and down, preventing offset, thus realizing the position adjustment function of the adjusting component 2. After adjustment, it is fixed by the locking screws. The operation is convenient and the use is simple. The locking screws can be implemented using any existing technology, which is not shown in the accompanying drawings and will not be described in detail here.

[0035] Considering the importance of internal heat dissipation in chassis 1 and the stability requirements of the overall structure of adjustment component 2, the adjustment component 2 also includes a fan mounting plate 12 located below and connected to the support platform 3. The fan mounting plate 12 has a mounting slot 13 for mounting a fan, and an exhaust area 14 for airflow is provided within the mounting slot 13. The adjustment component 2 enhances its structural stability through its upper and lower structural design, and also saves space in the internal structural design of chassis 1, achieving two goals at once.

[0036] The fan mounting plate 12 is connected to the chassis 1 on both the left and right sides by a fixing component 9, and the fixing component 9 realizes the adjustment and fixing requirements of the fan mounting plate 12.

[0037] The upper left side of the adjustment component 2 is connected to the chassis 1 via two vertically arranged fixing components 9, and the upper right side of the adjustment component 2 is connected to the chassis via one fixing component 9. The fixing point on the upper right side is located in the middle between the two fixing points on the upper left side, forming a stable triangular connection and fixing structure.

[0038] The isolation and protection baffle 4 and the fan fixing plate 12 are each provided with at least one cable management through hole 15 for cable management. The cable management through hole 15 is used to assist in the cable arrangement inside the chassis 1 and ensure that the cable arrangement inside the chassis 1 is neat.

[0039] Considering that the power supply will generate heat during use, the side and top surfaces of the chassis 1 corresponding to the power supply housing area are respectively provided with ventilated heat dissipation areas 16 that allow airflow to pass through, for power supply heat dissipation. The exterior of the top plate 7 is provided with an exhaust channel 17 that penetrates the top plate 7, and an exhaust mesh plate component 18 and a placement slot 19 for supporting and accommodating the exhaust mesh plate component 18 are provided in the exhaust channel 17.

[0040] Working principle:

[0041] The power supply is installed inside the chassis 1. The power supply's built-in connection hole is aligned with the power connection position 8 on the top plate 7 and fixed with screws. Then, the vertical position of the adjustment component 2 is adjusted. The position of the support platform 3 is adjusted vertically by using the locking screw to limit the position of the slot 11, so as to fit the power supply. Then, the locking screw is locked with the fixing hole 10 to fix the final position of the adjustment component 2. The support platform 3 supports the power supply. Combined with the isolation and protection baffle 4 and the cable tray 5, the power supply is isolated and protected. The cable tray 5 is provided with cable through holes 6 so that the wires can pass through.

[0042] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope.
