A double housing mutually stacking structure of the present embodiment comprises a first main structure10, a first panel101, a first right side plate102and a first left side plate103, in which the first main structure10comprises a first upper cover11, a first front wall12, a first rear wall13, a first motherboard blocking wall14, a first left supporting frame15, a first right upper supporting frame16, a first right lower supporting frame17, a first power supply18and a first lower cover19.

The present invention is characterized in that the upper cover and the lower cover of the main structure are detachable, and the panel, the right side plate and the left side plate are detachably combined with the main structure. When two computer housing want to be stacked to be close to the volume of one computer housing, the first panel, the first right side plate and the first left side plate are respectively detached from the computer housing, and the upper cover is caused to detached from one of the main structure, and the lower cover is caused to detach from another one of the main structures. Thereafter, the computer housings are allowed to be stacked together.

The first side edges121and131of the first front and the first rear walls12and13are respectively combined to front and rear edges of the first motherboard blocking wall14. The first front and rear walls12and13and upper and lower edges of the first motherboard blocking wall14are respectively combined with the first upper cover11and the first lower cover19. A first side edge151of the first left supporting frame15is pivotally connected to a second side edge122of the first front wall12through a first hinge152asFIG. 2shows. The first right upper supporting frame16and the first right lower supporting frame17are respectively combined with an inner side of the first motherboard blocking wall14. The first right upper supporting frame16is located above the first right lower supporting frame17. Finally, the first power supply18is combined with an upper edge of an inner side of the first rear wall13.

When the first main structure10is contracted, a second side edge153of the first left supporting frame15is propped against the first front wall12asFIG. 1shows. When the main structure10is expanded, the second side edges153of the first left supporting frame15is expanded to a position opposite to a second side edge132of the first rear wall13asFIG. 2shows. In the meantime, the first left supporting frame15is opposite to the first right upper supporting frame16and the first right lower supporting frame17. A space between the first left supporting frame15and the first right upper supporting frame16is used for accepting a first kind electronic device such as a 5.25 inch CD-ROM drive and a space between the first left supporting frame15and the first right lower supporting frame17is used for accepting a second kind electronic device such as a 3.50 inch CD-ROM drive.

Please refer toFIGS. 1 and 3. When the embodiment is taken into practice, the first main structures10of two housing are mutually stacked to a unity. For describing conveniently, name another housing as a second housing. The second housing has the same structure as the first housing. For describing clearly, take corresponding assigned number to express a corresponding element. For example, a front wall22, a second left supporting frame25and a second right upper supporting frame26of a second main structure20are corresponding to the front wall12, the first left supporting frame15and the first right upper supporting frame16of the first main structure10.

Please refer toFIGS. 1 and 3to8. When an operator wants to stack the first housing to the second housing, he first detaches the first lower cover19from the first main structure10, detaches a second upper cover21from the second main structure20, presses the first left supporting frame15against the first front wall12and presses the second left supporting frame25against the second front wall22asFIG. 3shows. When an assembly is being processed, the operator presses the first front wall12against an outer side of a second rear wall23, the second front wall22against an outer side of the first rear wall13, the first upper cover11against upper edges of the second rear wall23and a second motherboard blocking wall24, a second lower cover29against lower edges of the first rear wall13and the first motherboard blocking wall14so as to cause the first main structure10and the second main structure20to be mutually stacked to be a unity asFIG. 4shows. Furthermore, the operator engages the first panel101and a second panel201respectively with the first front wall12and the second front wall22, and stacks the first right side plate102and the first left side plate103to an outer side of the second motherboard blocking wall24asFIGS. 5 and 6show. Next, the operator stacks the second right side plate202and the second left side plate203to one side of the first left side plate103and then arranges the first lower cover19and the second upper cover21to be up and down and side by side and stacks them to one side of the second left side plate203. Finally, the first housing and the second housing can be allowed to mutually stack together to be a packed-to-be body, and the volume of the packed-to-be body is approximately equal to the one of the first housing.

The double housing mutually stacking structure disclosed in the present invention allows two computer housings to be stacked to be close to the volume of one housing to transport so that the transportation cost can be effectively saved, the product competition ability can be elevated and the storage space can be favorably saved.
