Abstract
A computer enclosure includes a cage (), a bezel (), and two pivot devices (). The cage has a front panel () defining two holes (). Each pivot device () is fixed to the bezel, and includes a cylinder (), a spring () and a pivot (). The cylinder receives the spring therein. Two L-shaped apertures () are defined in opposite sides of the cylinder. Each pivot includes a central pin (), and a circumferential wall () surrounding most of the pin. Two resilient L-shaped hooks () are formed at opposite sides of the circumferential wall. The spring is compressed between a top end of the cylinder and the circumferential wall. When the hooks are slid from horizontal portions () of the apertures to vertical portions () of the apertures, the spring pushes the pivot downwardly, and the pin is pivotably engaged in a corresponding hole of the front panel.
