Abstract
A housing for a module unit of a portable computer includes a surrounding wall member and a cover member. The surrounding wall member includes a rectangular surrounding wall, and a partition disposed in and spanning a rectangular area confined by the surrounding wall. The partition cooperates with the surrounding wall to form a first receiving space with a first open end, and a second receiving space with a second open end. The partition is formed with an opening for intercommunicating the first and second receiving spaces. The cover member is formed separately from and is mounted on the surrounding wall member at the first open end of the first receiving space to cover the first receiving space. The first receiving space is adapted to receive a circuit board therein. The second receiving space is adapted to receive the module unit therein. Electrical connection between the module unit and the circuit board can be established via an electrical conductor unit that is extended through the opening in the partition.
