  • Patent number: 7483263
    Abstract: A computer enclosure includes a base (10), a cover (100) and a resilient member (80) attached to the base and compressed by the cover. The base has a latching portion (68) disposed thereon. The cover is adapted to being mounted to the base, and has a mounting protrusion (70) projecting therefrom. The mounting protrusion engages with the latching portion for preventing the cover moving in a first direction, thereby securing the cover on the base. The resilient member is attached to the base and compressed by the cover. When the mounting protrusion disengages from the latching portion, the resilient member pushes the cover to move in the first direction due to being released.
