Computer enclosure and fan mounting apparatus

摘要

A computer enclosure includes a sidewall and a fan mounting apparatus. The sidewall defines a ventilation area and four slide slots around the ventilation area. The fan mounting apparatus includes two opposite first position member, and two opposite second position members alternately arranged with the first position members. The first and second position members are slidably connected end to end and cooperatively define a ring. The first and second position plates are moved toward or away from each other. The first and second position members are slidably and respectively connected to the slide slots, to decrease or increase a diameter of the ring for selectively mounting different sized fans.

主权项

1. A fan mounting apparatus, comprising:
two opposite first position members each comprising a first position plate, mounted to a sidewall and around a ventilation area, and a first rack extending in from the first position plate; two opposite second position members each comprising a second position plate, mounted to the sidewall and around the ventilation area and a second rack, extending in from the second position plate, wherein the first position plates and the second position plates are arranged to form a ring member around the ventilation area; and an operation member comprising a gear; wherein distal ends of the first and second racks cooperatively define a receiving space, the gear is received in the receiving space and meshes with the first and second racks, the first and second position plates are radially slidable about a center of the ventilation area in response to rotating the gear, thereby decreasing or increasing a diameter of the ring member, for selectively mounting the different sized fans.
