Abstract

A power supply structure comprises a housing, a socket and a fan. The housing has a main housing, a terminal housing and a front panel, wherein the terminal housing connected with the main housing. The fan and the terminal housing disposed on one end of the main housing, and the fan attached to the front panel. The socket arranged in parallel with the fan and connected to the terminal housing.

Claims (23)

1. A power supply structure, comprising:

a housing having a main housing, a terminal housing connected with the main housing, and a front panel, wherein the terminal housing is disposed at a front end of the main housing in a first direction;

a fan disposed at the front end of the main housing and detachably attached to the front panel; and

a socket arranged at the front end of the main housing in parallel with the fan in a second direction that is generally perpendicular to the first direction, and connected to the terminal housing.

2. The power supply structure according to claim 1 , wherein the socket is provided with a clip connected to the terminal housing in a snap-fit.

3. The power supply structure according to claim 2 , wherein the socket comprises four sidewalls connected with each other, and the clips are arranged on one pair of the opposite sidewalls of the four sidewalls.

4. The power supply structure according to claim 2 , wherein the terminal housing comprises a top plate, a side plate, and a bottom plate, which are sequentially connected with each other.

5. The power supply structure according to claim 4 , wherein the terminal housing further comprises a baffle plate located between the socket and the fan, wherein the top plate, the side plate, the bottom plate, and the baffle plate are sequentially connected with each other.

6. The power supply structure according to claim 5 , wherein the baffle plate and the front panel are integrally formed in one piece.

7. The power supply structure according to claim 5 , wherein the side plate and the baffle plate are respectively provided with a clip hole, to which the clips on the socket are respectively connected in the snap-fit.

8. The power supply structure according to claim 7 , wherein the terminal housing further comprises a recess portion located on either one of the top plate and the bottom plate, for pressing against the socket.

9. The power supply structure according to claim 4 , wherein the top plate of the terminal housing is provided with a clip hole, and the bottom plate of the terminal housing comprises a bend portion perpendicular thereto, wherein the clips on the socket are respectively connected to the clip hole and the bend portion in the snap-fit.

10. The power supply structure according to claim 9 , wherein the terminal housing further comprises a recess portion located on the side plate of the terminal housing, for pressing against the socket.

11. The power supply structure according to claim 4 , wherein the bottom plate of the terminal housing is provided with a clip hole, and the top plate of the terminal housing comprises a bend portion perpendicular thereto, wherein the clips on the socket are respectively connected to the clip hole and the bend portion in the snap-fit.

12. The power supply structure according to claim 11 , wherein the terminal housing further comprises a recess portion located on the side plate of the terminal housing, for pressing against the socket.

13. The power supply structure according to claim 4 , wherein both the bottom plate and the top plate comprise a bend portion perpendicular to the respective bottom and top plates, wherein the clips on the socket are respectively connected to the bend portion in the snap-fit.

14. The power supply structure according to claim 13 , wherein the terminal housing further comprises a recess portion located on the side plate of the terminal housing, for pressing against the socket.

15. The power supply structure according to claim 1 , wherein the socket is detachably connected with the terminal housing through either one of a screw and a fastener.

16. The power supply structure according to claim 1 , wherein the terminal housing and the main housing are integrally formed in one piece.

17. The power supply structure according to claim 1 , wherein the terminal housing and the main housing are spliced by a fastener.

18. The power supply structure according to claim 1 , wherein the fan is secured to the front panel by a screw.

19. The power supply structure according to claim 1 , wherein the socket is a C 20 socket.

20. The power supply structure according to claim 1 , wherein the front panel is further provided with a handle.
