Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer equipment, and in particular to a chassis and a host device. Background Technology

[0002] With rising consumer spending, sales of home and office desktop PCs have been increasing year by year. These home and office PCs are frequently moved due to reasons such as changing room layouts and cleaning.

[0003] The main unit is relatively heavy, making it very inconvenient to move or change its location. It is easy for it to slip and fall, causing it to be bumped or even damaged, rendering it unusable. The current solutions are to add grooves to the side panels on both sides of the main unit, so that users can hold the grooves with both hands and lift the main unit when moving it; or to add a C-shaped handle to the top of the chassis, so that users can lift the main unit by the handle.

[0004] Of the two moving structures mentioned above, the side groove structure requires the user to operate with both hands and has certain requirements for the carrying posture, while the top handle structure has a significant impact on the overall appearance of the main unit, is not aesthetically pleasing, has a larger size, increases packaging costs, and adds assembly steps. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention addresses the problems of current host computer handling structures having posture requirements or affecting appearance by providing a chassis that is easier to handle and has a smaller overall size.

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, the present invention provides a chassis comprising a chassis shell, the chassis shell including a top plate, a first side plate, and a second side plate, the first and second side plates being parallel to each other. A first handle structure is provided on the side edge of the top plate near the front or rear face of the chassis, protruding from the front or rear face of the chassis. This solution integrates a handle structure into the sheet metal shell of the chassis, allowing for easy handling and lifting of the main unit during transport. This structure allows for single-handed lifting of the main unit, facilitating operation, reducing the external space occupied by the chassis, and being integrally formed with the top plate, making manufacturing easier and reducing costs.

[0007] Preferably, the enclosure also includes a sheet metal frame, with the chassis shell mounted on the outside of the sheet metal frame. The chassis employs a frame structure for mounting the external panel, resulting in higher overall strength.

[0008] Preferably, the chassis shell further includes a bottom plate, and the top plate, the first side plate, and the bottom plate are an integral structure. This simplifies the manufacturing process and improves the integrity of the chassis.

[0009] Preferably, the top plate has a first flange extending downwards along its edge near the second side plate; the bottom plate has a second flange extending upwards along its edge near the second side plate; both the first and second flanges are parallel to and continuous with the second side plate. The bottom plate, top plate, and first side plate are installed together by the flanges, improving installation strength.

[0010] Preferably, the top plate and the first side plate are an integral structure.

[0011] Preferably, the lower part of the first and second side panels has a recessed portion that is recessed into the chassis, and the recessed portions on both sides are arranged opposite to each other. When the chassis is placed in a high position, it can be held with both hands to prevent it from slipping.

[0012] Preferably, the recess is rectangular, and the length of the recess is along the front-rear direction of the chassis.

[0013] Preferably, the first handle structure includes a handle plate, which is trapezoidal. The long base of the handle plate is connected to the side edge of the top plate, and the two sides and the short base of the handle plate are folded downwards to form a convex bulge structure. The user's fingers can be inserted into the handle structure for more stable extraction.

[0014] Preferably, the second side panel has a second handle structure along its front and / or rear edge. This allows the chassis to be lifted whether it is placed vertically or horizontally, making it easier to move.

[0015] On the other hand, this utility model also provides a host device, which adopts the above-mentioned chassis.

[0016] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the chassis and the host have multiple handling methods; the handle is located at the top edge and extends to the side, and is integrally formed with the chassis panel; when handling, it is gripped here to achieve the purpose of lifting and placing the host; this structure can lift the host with one hand, which is convenient to operate and occupies less external space of the chassis; it is integrally formed with the top panel of the chassis, which makes manufacturing more convenient and lower in cost; the side has a concave part, which can be held with both hands; and the bending and folding edge design of the chassis panel improves the overall structural strength.
