Abstract
The computer housing of a modular computer device includes a rectangular housing body-having a front panel formed with at least one module receiving opening, a side door mounted pivotally on the housing body and operable so as to close and open an open lateral side of the housing body, and a connector unit disposed in the housing body and having at least one electrical connecting set registered with a corresponding module receiving opening. A computer main board is mounted on an inner surface of the side door and is connected electrically to the connector unit. At least one computer peripheral module has a module housing that is disposed slidably and removably in a corresponding module receiving opening and that has a rear side provided with a module connector set. The module connector set engages mechanically and electrically an aligned corresponding electrical connecting set of the connector unit to establish electrical connection between the computer peripheral module and the computer main board.
