Abstract: A computer housing includes a first shell, and a second shell connected to the first shell by a pivot mechanism. The pivot mechanism includes two co-axial bushings mounted on the first shell respectively, and two pivot shafts mounted on the second shell respectively and each pivotally mounted in the respective bushing. Thus, the pivot shafts are inserted into the bushings simultaneously in the same direction to connect the first shell and the second shell, so that the second shell is connected to the first shell easily and quickly. In addition, the second shell is a component of the computer housing, so that it is unnecessary to manufacture a rotation case additionally, thereby decreasing the costs of fabrication.
