Abstract
A fan frame for a heat dissipation apparatus is provided. The fan frame includes an outer frame, an inner frame sleeved in the outer frame and slidable relative to the outer frame, a latching mechanism for mechanically securing the inner frame to the outer frame. The latching mechanism includes one or more resilient latches, one or more receiving portions capable of receiving the resilient latches in a first latched position and a second latched position, and an actuator mechanism connected to the outer frame and capable of resisting the resilient latch to cause elastic deformation of the resilient latch, thereby withdrawing the resilient latch from the receiving portion.
