Abstract
A mounting device for mounting a number of fans includes a rack and a number of fixing members. The rack includes a bottom wall and two sidewalls perpendicularly extending up from opposite sides of the rack. Each sidewall defines a number of vents spaced along the lengthwise of the sidewall. Each fixing member includes a board perpendicularly mounted to the bottom wall and positioned at a side of two aligning vents, and a blocking member mounted to the board and slidable along the lengthwise of the sidewalls to block a top of a fan.
Claims8
A mounting device for mounting a plurality of fans, comprising:
- a rack comprising a bottom wall and two sidewalls extending up from opposite sides of the bottom wall, each sidewall defining a plurality of vents corresponding to the fans, the plurality of vents in one of the sidewalls respectively aligning the plurality of vents in the other;
- and
- a plurality of fixing members each comprising a board mounted between the sidewalls and positioned at a side of two aligning vents of the sidewalls, and a locking member movably mounted to the board between a first position where the locking member is away from the aligning vents and a second position where the locking member abuts a top of the fan aligning with the aligning vents to block the top of the fan, and
- wherein each board forms a block on a top, the block define three parallel first slots in a top surface, each locking member comprises a plate forming a first engaging portion in a bottom surface, to be selectively engaged in one of the first slots, thereby positioning the locking member in either the first position or the second position.
A fan assembly, comprising:
- a rack comprising a bottom wall and two sidewalls extending up from opposite sides of the bottom wall, each sidewall defining a vent;
- a fan supported on the bottom wall and sandwiched between the sidewalls, the fan aligning with the vents of the sidewalls;
- and
- a fixing member comprising a board mounted between the sidewalls and positioned at a side of the fan, and a locking member movably mounted to the board, wherein the locking member is operable to move between a first position where the locking member is away from the fan and a second position where the locking member abuts a top of the fan to block the top of the fan, and
- wherein the board forms a block on a top, the block defines two parallel first slots in a top surface, the locking member comprises a plate forming a first engaging portion in a bottom surface, to be selectively engaged in one of the first slots, thereby positioning the locking member in the first or second position.
