Abstract
A computer enclosure comprises a base frame, a mounting bracket, and a top cover. The base frame has a base panel, a front panel, a rear panel for mounting connectors and a power supply thereto, and a plate dividing the base frame into a first space for receiving and mounting a mother board on the base panel and a second space for containing and fixing other components such as a switching power supply, a floppy disk drive, or a CD ROM. The mounting bracket receives a hard disk therein and can be mounted in either the first space or second space. Alternatively, two mounting brackets can be mounted in both spaces, respectively. The mounting bracket is hooked onto the plate and fastened onto the front or rear panel with one screw. The base frame has a stopper located between the front and rear panels and pivotably mounted to the base panel. The mother board smoothly slides into the first space without obstruction by engaging the stopper the base frame.
