ABSTRACT:
A front panel structure of a personal computer comprises upper hooking members and lower hooking members to secure the front panel to the casing of the personal computer in order to provide a fast and efficient way for mounting/dismounting the front panel. Four resilient upper hooking members are provided on the top edge of the front panel to be received within four corresponding upper slots formed on the computer casing and two resilient hooking members are formed on the lower edge of the front panel to be received within two corresponding lower openings formed on the computer casing to cooperate with the upper hooking members for securing the front panel on the computer casing. Several guiding and supporting tabs are provided to guide the mounting of the front panel and to further secure the front panel in position. With such an arrangement, by depressing the resilient hooking members to have the hooking members disengage from the openings of the computer casing, the front panel can be easily removed from the computer casing.
