Abstract:
1. A fan bracket mounting structure mounted inside a case of a computer, comprising: at least one fan bracket, each said fan bracket comprising a top protruding block, a retaining block and a bottom hook respectively extended from an upright wall thereof at different elevations, said retaining block having a transverse retaining edge, said bottom hook having a transverse body section perpendicularly outwardly extended from a bottom side of said upright wall and a vertical body section perpendicularly downwardly extended from a distal end of said transverse body section, said transverse body section having a transverse bottom face, said transverse retaining edge of said retaining block and said transverse face of said bottom hook defining a first distance; and a base frame fixedly mounted inside the case of a computer, said base frame comprising a vertical panel and at least one coupling structure situated at said vertical panel and adapted to receive said at least one fan bracket respectively, each said coupling structure comprising an upper coupling hole, a retaining hole and a lower coupling hole adapted to receive the top protruding block, retaining block and bottom hook of one said fan bracket respectively, said retaining hole being partially defined by a top edge for frictional engagement with the transverse retaining edge of the retaining block of one said fan bracket, said lower coupling hole being partially defined by a bottom edge for frictional engagement with the transverse face of the transverse body section of the bottom hook of one said fan bracket, the bottom edge defining said lower coupling hole and the top edge defining said retaining hole defining a second distance, said second distance being smaller than said first distance.
