  • Patent number: 5837942
    Abstract: A cover which improves the aesthetic appearance of the back of a desktop computer which also provides protection for the leads and wires protruding from the back of the CPU (Central Processing Unit). The cover can be conformally molded of an opaque plastic material of sufficient thickness and strength as to provide protection for the rear components of the CPU. The design of this cover presents a shadow over the unsightly protruding wiring while maintaining adequate cooling airflow using a venturi generated by the CPU cooling fan and natural heat convection. Attachment shall be of a simple, easily attachable/detachable type requiring little or no modification to the CPU housing using preferably nonelectically conductive materials such as stick on hook and loop fasteners. The cover design shall be adaptable for both conventional desktop and tower type (vertical) CPUs.
