In the present embodiment, a rack mountable server is taken as an example, which may include a control circuit board, a plurality of slots for accommodating plug & play hard drives and a casing. Though the rack mountable server is not illustrated in detail in the present embodiment, those skilled in the art may refer to the illustration ofFIG. 1 for a reference. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , thecase structure 200 of a server includes afirst plate 210 and asecond plate 220. Thefirst plate 210 may be a top plate of aserver casing 202, and thesecond plate 220 may be a front top cover disposed on thefirst plate 210. Next, referring toFIG. 2 andFIG. 4 , thefirst plate 210 has afixing pillar 212. Thefixing pillar 212 is fixed on a top surface of thefirst plate 210 and protrudes from the top surface, and thefixing pillar 212 has anengaging portion 214 which may be an annular slot with an incision depth, or thefixing pillar 212 may have a gap on its edge located adjacent to afixing rack 230, used for locking thefixing rack 230 of thesecond plate 220. - Next, referring to
FIG. 3 andFIG. 4 , thesecond plate 220 has thefixing rack 230 and anassembly spring 240 on its bottom. Thefixing rack 230 may be integrally formed with thesecond plate 220, and has a locking portion 232 (for example, a V-shape slot) used for locking theengaging portion 214 of thefixing pillar 212, so as to fix thesecond plate 220 to an assembly position A. An opening width at a tip end of the V-shape slot is less than that at an opening end of the V-shape slot, and therefore when thesecond plate 220 moves along a horizontal moving direction relative to thefixing pillar 212, thefixing pillar 212 may move from the opening end of the V-shape slot to the tip end of the V-shape slot, so as to fix theengaging portion 214 of thefixing pillar 212 to the tip end of the V-shape slot. Moreover, in absence of external force, theassembly spring 240 may normally rely on thefixing rack 230. Theassembly spring 240 has alock cooperating hole 242 located above thelocking portion 232, which is used for being penetrated thefixing pillar 212 to confine a horizontal movement of thesecond plate 220 relative to thefirst plate 210. - As described above, the
assembly spring 240 may be a metal elastic element having an elasticity restoring ability. Theassembly spring 240 has an elastic bending part C. Thefixing rack 230 may has a slot P, such that the elastic bending part C may extend outside the slot P to form an activatingend 244. Referring toFIG. 5 andFIG. 6 ,FIG. 5 andFIG. 6 are cross-sectional views of the assembly spring and the second plate ofFIG. 4 when being activated by forces. Whenassembly spring 240 is activated by forces and departs from the fixingpillar 212, the activatingend 244 is pushed upwards for a distance, and when thelock cooperating hole 242 of theassembly spring 240 is not interfered with the fixingpillar 212, thefixing rack 230 may be released from the fixingpillar 212 by moving thesecond plate 220 along the horizontal moving direction to depart from the fixingpillar 212, and accordingly, thesecond plate 220 may move from the original assembly position A to a disassembly position B, and departs from thefirst plate 210. - According to the above description, when the
second plate 220 is assembled to thefirst plate 210 or disassembled from thefirst plate 210, fixing/releasing of thesecond plate 220 may be performed simply via operation of thefixing rack 230 and theassembly spring 240. Therefore, the case structure provided by the present invention is convenient in utilization and may substitute the conventional complicated fixing/releasing structure for assembly/disassembly of the front cover. - Moreover, compared to the conventional techniques, the fixing pillar 212 (for example, bolt or rivet) fixed between the
first plate 210 and thesecond plate 220 may further enhance a structural strength of thesecond plate 220. Referring toFIG. 3 , thesecond plate 220 may have twosidewalls 222 and a middleflat part 224 located between the twosidewalls 222. The structural strength of the middleflat part 224 is relatively poor compared with that of the twosidewalls 222. Allocation of thefixing rack 230 and the assemblespring 240 on the middleflat part 224 of thesecond plate 220 is not only convenient for operation and observation, but may also improve a support to thesecond plate 220 via the fixingpillar 212 of thefirst plate 210, such that the structural strength of thewhole case structure 200 may be enhanced accordingly. - In addition, in the above embodiment, the
first plate 210 ofFIG. 4 may also be a bottom plate or a plate of other parts of theserver casing 202 besides just being the top plate. Thefirst plate 210 may lock thesecond plate 220 by engaging the fixingpillar 212 with the locking portion 232 (for example, a V-shape slot). - As to the structure and shape of the locking portion, the present invention provides another embodiment which may achieve a same function as that of the above embodiment.
FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating a bottom of a second plate. Referring toFIG. 7 , thesecond plate 220 has afixing rack 230 and anassembly spring 240 on its bottom. Thefixing rack 230 has a locking portion 234 (for example, a gourdshaped hole) disposed along a horizontal moving direction, which is used for locking the engagingportion 214 of the fixingpillar 212 ofFIG. 4 to fix thesecond plate 220. In the present embodiment, an opening width of the lockingportion 234 at a first position D1 is different from that at a second position D2. Namely, the opening width of the second position D2 allows the fixingpillar 212 vertically penetrating through, and the opening width of the first position D1 may only allow theengaging portion 214 of the fixingpillar 212 horizontally passing through for engaging the fixingpillar 212, such that a vertical movement of thesecond plate 220 relative to thefirst plate 210 is confined. Moreover, theassembly spring 240 has alock cooperating hole 242 located corresponding to the first position D1 of the lockingportion 234, which is used for being penetrated by the fixingpillar 212 to confine a horizontal movement of thesecond plate 220 relative to thefirst plate 210. In summary, the case structure of the server of the present invention has a simplified fixing/releasing structure, which may effectively improve a convenience of assembly. Therefore, a user may swiftly assemble or disassemble the second plate without the aid of tools, which is very convenient for application. - It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the structure of the present invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. In view of the foregoing, it is intended that the present invention cover modifications and variations of this invention provided they fall within the scope of the following claims and their equivalents.
