  • Publication number: 20130152479
    Abstract: A hard disk drive filler (HDD filler) that is detachably installed in a case is disclosed. The HDD filler has a frame body, a pivot axis, and a rotating device; wherein the frame body defines a bottom surface and a top surface which corresponds to the bottom surface. The pivot axis is disposed in the frame body. One end of the rotating device is pivoted to the pivot axis, such that the rotating device can rotate due to gravity to stay within or be partly exposed to the frame body. If the frame body is installed into the case while the bottom surface is upward, the rotating device rotates along the pivot axis and is guided by gravity such that part of the rotating device is exposed to the frame body to stop the installation.
