  • Publication number: 20200174520
    Abstract: A computer housing includes a housing frame including a first cover and a second cover. The first and second covers are components of an outer housing wall removable from the housing frame and, in the mounted state, each covers an inner region of the computer housing to the outside. The first and second covers each have an operating mechanism to release an engagement of the first and/or second cover on the housing frame. In the mounted state, the first cover hides the operating mechanism of the second cover. When the first cover is removed, the operating mechanism of the still mounted second cover can be operated from outside. Thus, the engagement of the second cover can be released and the second cover can be removed from the housing frame.
