Abstract: A mounting apparatus includes a bracket (20), a slidable member (40), a retention member (50), and a pair of shock absorbers (80). The bracket is for receiving a storage device (10) therein, the bracket including a pair of opposite first and second sidewalls (24, 26), and a pair of through holes (246) is defined in the first sidewall. The slidable member is movably attached to the first sidewall of the bracket. The retention member is spring-loaded, and is movable relative to the slidable member and the first sidewall respectively in different directions. A pair of latches (54) is formed on the retention member, the latches being capable of being extended through the through holes respectively for engaging the storage device. The shock absorber is arranged to an internal surface of the second sidewall for engaging the storage device.

Abstract: A protection device is provided to protect connectors which are to be connected to electronic interfaces at a panel of a computer chassis (10). The protection device includes a bracket (30) secured to the panel, and a cover (50) pivotally attached to the bracket for shielding the connectors. The cover defines a plurality of slots for extension of cables of the connectors therethrough. The slots include a large assembly slot (59), a narrow accommodating slot (58), and a connecting slot communicating the assembly slot and the accommodating slot. The accommodating slot is in alignment with a zone disposed at the panel of the computer chassis having at least one electronic interface for collecting a cable of at least one connector, the assembly slot allowing entrance of the at least one connector is not in alignment with the zone.

Abstract: A supporting apparatus for a computer case (10) comprises a base member (30), a foot (60) and a latch (40). The computer case comprises a chassis (20) and a bottom panel (14). An opening (142) is defined in the bottom panel. The base member comprises a top wall (32) and a bottom wall (34). Through holes (324, 342) are respectively defined in the top wall and the bottom wall. The foot comprises a base (62) and a pole (64) disposed in the through holes. A hook (646) is formed at a distal end of the pole. The latch is mounted to the base member for grasping the hook. When the supporting apparatus is hidden into the opening of the bottom panel, the hook is grasped by the latch. When the supporting apparatus slides outwardly from the opening of the bottom panel, the hook is released from the latch.

Abstract: A computer bezel includes a main body (100), a shutter (10) movably attached to the main body, a pair of springs (50) connecting the shutter and the main body, and a bracket (40). The main body includes an opening (110) and a pair of flanges (103). A first rail (120) and a second rail (130) are defined in each flange. The first rail and the second rail each include an orientating rail (124, 134) and a guiding rail (122, 132). A door lock (170) is secured on the main body. The shutter includes a first sliding portion (22), a second sliding portion (24), and an engaging end (36). When the first sliding portion and the second sliding portion slide into the guiding rail, the shutter is opened, the engaging end is engaged into the door lock, and the springs are extended. When the first sliding portion and the second sliding portion slide into the orientating rail, the shutter is closed, the engaging end is disengaged from the door lock, and the springs are rebounded.

Abstract: A rail assembly for a data storage device includes a bracket (30) comprising a first wall (34), a rail (60) attached to the first wall (34) and a fastener (80) comprising a set of latches (84). The first wall (34) defining a set of through holes (344), the rail (60) defining a plurality of sets of locating holes (630) according to the through holes (344) of the first wall (34) and the latches (84) of the fastener (80). Wherein the latches of the fastener are extended through the through holes of the first wall and engage with one selected set of the locating holes of the rail respectively.

Abstract: A computer bezel includes a front panel, a power button attached to the front panel; an annular member attached to the front panel and set around the power button; and a protective member for covering the power button. The front panel includes a concave portion defining two slots and two through holes therein, the protective member includes two hooks engaging in the slots for slidably attaching the protective member to the front panel. Two posts formed on the protective member. When each post is in alignment with the corresponding through hole, the protective member is depressed to push the power button.

Abstract: A mounting apparatus includes a computer drive bracket (10), an operating body (20) attached to a lateral wall (12) of the drive bracket, a data storage device (30), and two slide members (40) attached to sides of the storage device. First and second holes (126, 123) are defined in the wall, and a stop plate (124) is formed from the wall. The operating body includes: a resilient tongue (28) having a first wedge (22); and a second wedge (27). The first and second wedges engage in the first and second holes respectively. One slide member includes a protrusion (49?) and a buffer (47?). The protrusion snappingly engages with the first wedge so that it abuts the first wedge and prevents said slide member from moving back out from the drive bracket. The buffer abuts the stop plate and prevents the slide member from moving too far into the drive bracket.
