A computer enclosure includes a base ( 10 ), a hood ( 20 ), a pair of first locating plates ( 50 ), a pair of second locating plates ( 70 ), a pair of positioning plates ( 60 ), and a pair of connecting mechanisms ( 40 ) pivotably connecting the hood to the base. Each connecting mechanism has a first lever ( 44 ), a second lever ( 46 ), and a horizontal lever ( 42 ). One end of each first lever pivotably connects with the corresponding first locating plate. One end of each second lever pivotably and slidably connects in a slot ( 72 ) defined in the corresponding second locating plate. Each horizontal lever pivotably connects with the corresponding positioning plate and respective opposite ends of the first and second levers. The positioning plates are secured to opposite sides of the hood. The locking plates are secured to opposite sides of the base. Two locking devices ( 30 ) are secured to opposite sides of the hood.

The computer enclosure as described in claim 1, wherein a stop is formed on each of the first locating plates, for blocking a corresponding first lever. 9. The computer enclosure as described in claim 1, wherein a pair of locking devices is secured to opposite sides of the cover, for locking the hood to the base. 10. The computer enclosure as described in claim 9, wherein a first protrusion is formed on each of the locking devices, and the first protrusion snappingly engages with a corresponding second protrusion formed on the base when the enclosure is closed. 11. The computer enclosure as described in claim 10, wherein a button is formed on each of the locking devices, the button is received in an opening defined in a corresponding side panel of the base when the enclosure is closed, and when the button is pressed, the first protrusion is released from the corresponding second protrusion. 12. A computer enclosure comprising:a base comprising a bottom panel and two opposite side panels;a hood comprising a cover and two opposite side walls; anda connecting mechanism pivotably connecting the hood to the base, the connecting mechanism comprising two pivoting levers and a connecting lever, one end of the connecting lever being pivotably connected to the hood, one end of each of the pivoting levers being pivotably connected to the connecting lever, an opposite end of each of the pivoting levers being pivotably connected to the base, wherein at least one of said opposite ends of the pivoting levers is also slidably connected to the base. 13. The computer enclosure as described in claim 12, wherein a plurality of locating plates is secured to the base, and the locating plates pivotably connect the pivoting levers thereto. 14. The computer enclosure as described in claim 13, wherein at least one of the locating plates defines a slot therein, and the slot slidably receives said opposite end of a corresponding pivoting lever. 15. The computer enclosure as described in claim 12, wherein a positioning plate is secured to the hood, and the positioning plate pivotably connects said one end of the connecting lever thereto. 16. The computer enclosure as described in claim 12, wherein at least one locking device is secured to the hood, for locking the hood to the base. 17. A computer enclosure comprising:a base comprising at least one side panel;a hood comprising at least one side wall closely aligned with said side panel in a vertical plane;a connecting mechanism pivotally connecting said hood to the base, said connecting mechanism including a four-bar-linkage structure mounted around the side panel, said four-bar-linkage structure essentially comprising front and rear short levers connected by a long bar at ends thereof, said bar further extending beyond a joint portion with the rear short lever and pivotally connected around a rear portion of the side wall, said rear short lever is moveable along a slot while the front short lever has a stationary pivot point with regard to the base;wherein when in a locked position the hood is configured to basically somewhat horizontally rearwardly move, via said four-bar-linkage structure, relative to the base with a distance to allow a rear bezel of said hood to be spaced from a rear portion of the base with sufficient space and successively to be rearwardly rotated via a pivot structure between the bar and the hood without interference between the bezel and the base.
