Abstract

A server rack for improving opening and closing convenience of computer servers includes a base dock and an upper lid. The base dock has an upper beam bridging two opposite ends thereof. The upper beam has a latch structure. The upper lid is mounted on the based dock and includes a hook structure corresponding to and engageable with the latch structure for coupling the base dock and the upper lid. The latch structure is movable by the hook structure to release the coupling of the base dock and the upper lid. Hence the server rack may be easily opened or closed for replacing the electronic devices in the server during repair operations.
