Abstract: A computer (10) having a monitor housing (12) within which is affixed a logic module (24) having thereon a processor (36), a memory module (38), an internal power connector (39), a fixed disk drive (40), an internal data connector (41), and an external connector panel (46) all generally housed within a sheet metal housing (42) having therein a plurality of perforations (44) for allowing air from a fan assembly (30) to pass therethrough. A power supply (28) and monitor screen (14) are provided in the monitor housing (12) such that when the logic module (24) is mounted and electrically connected within the monitor housing (12) a generally complete computer (10) unit is provided. An auxiliary drive (16) is optionally provided and affixed to the logic module (24) such that the auxiliary drive (16) is externally accessible when the logic module (24) is affixed within the monitor housing (12).

Abstract: A floating mount for attaching a device to a chassis, and for facilitating alignment of the device with respect to another structure fixed relative to the chassis. The floating mount includes a biasing member fixed to the chassis and a carrier adapted to mount to the device. The carrier includes an engaging portion for engaging the biasing member and receiving a retaining force exerted by the biasing member. The carrier also includes an aligning surface for abutting the other structure and for receiving an aligning force sufficient to overcome the retaining force and displace the carrier and the device into proper alignment with the other structure.

Abstract: An appliance such as a personal computer includes a chassis, a monitor mounted to the chassis, and an outer housing encompassing the chassis. The chassis comprises a base portion, and a frame portion removably mounted to the base portion. The monitor is mounted to the frame portion in precise locational relationship thereto to form a frame/monitor unit that can be dismounted or mounted relative to a chassis base portion. The base and frame portions include mutually engageable positioning projections for precisely locating the frame portion with respect to the base portion.
