A computer enclosure (1) includes a chassis (10), a cover (20), a turn support (40) and a locking device (50). The chassis defines a plurality of slots (17) in a pair of opposite sills (16) thereof. The cover has a plurality of catches (21) for the engagement with the chassis at the slots. The turn support is attached to the chassis. The locking device includes a turn cap (60), a cam (52), a washer (54), and a bolt (56). The turn cap and cam are rotatably secured to the cover with the washer and the bolt. Rotation of the turn cap causes corresponding rotation of the cam. When rotated, the cam acts on flanges (46, 48) at an opening (42) of the turn support. The locking device thereby drives the cover to move forward or rearward. The catches of the cover accordingly engage with or disengage from the chassis.

1. A computer enclosure comprising: a chassis having two side walls, each side wall defining at least one slot therein; a turn support attached to the chassis and having first and second flanges; a cover attached to the chassis, the cover having at least one catch at each side thereof for engaging with the corresponding at least one slot of the chassis, and having a receiving dish with a through hole defined therein; and a locking device attached to the cover and having a cam actionable on the first and second flanges of the turn support, wherein the cam drives the cover to move and thereby causes the at least one catch of the cover to engage with or disengage from the chassis at the at least one slot of the chassis. 2. The computer enclosure as described in claim 1, wherein the side walls of the chassis comprise a pair of sills respectively extending inwardly toward each other, each sill defining the at least one slot. 3. The computer enclosure as described in claim 1, wherein an opening is defined in the turn support, and the flanges of the turn support are formed at the opening. 4. The computer enclosure as described in claim 1, wherein the flanges of the turn support are opposed to each other, and a pair of opposite lateral portions is formed on the turn support connecting the flanges, and wherein a length of either flange is greater than a length of either lateral portion. 5. The computer enclosure as described in claim 1, wherein an annulus depends from an edge of the receiving dish of the cover at the through hole. 6. The computer enclosure as described in claim 5, wherein slightly more than half of a bottom portion of the annulus of the cover is indented to create a generally semi-cylindrical turning space for rotatably accommodating the cam of the locking device therein. 7. The computer enclosure as described in claim 1, wherein the locking device further comprises a turn cap placed in the receiving dish of the cover, the cam being attached to a bottom of the turn cap with a washer and a bolt. 8. The computer enclosure as described in claim 7, wherein the turn cap of the locking device has a handle for facilitating manual operation of the locking device, and a protrusion is formed at a bottom surface of the turn cap for engaging with a through aperture of the cam. 9. The computer enclosure as described in claim 6, wherein the annulus of the cover forms two stops at opposite extremities of the turning space respectively, for locking the cam of the locking device in a position whereby the catches of the cover engage with the chassis at the slots of the chassis or in a position whereby the catches of the cover disengage from the chassis at the slots of the chassis. 10. A computer enclosure comprising: a chassis having first engaging means; a support attached to the chassis, the support having an opening; a cover attached to the chassis, the cover having second engaging means; a locking device rotatably attached to the cover, the locking device having a cam received in the opening of the support, wherein when the cam rotates toward a first direction and acts on one side of the opening, the cover is moved in a second direction so that the second engaging means of the cover engages with the first engaging means of the chassis, when the cam rotates toward the second direction and acts on an opposite side of the opening, the cover is moved in the first direction so that the second engaging means of the cover disengages from the first engaging means of the chassis.
