Fan cover

Abstract

A fan cover integrated with a heat dissipating fan having a power line and a power line connector is disclosed. The fan cover includes a body combined with and covered on a side of the heat dissipating fan, and a fixing mount disposed on an outside region of the body. The fixing mount has a clip unit for clipping to the power line connector of the heat dissipating fan, allowing the power line connector to be detachably attached to the fixing mount. Therefore, the heat dissipating fan is detachable form the frame of the server in single step and overcome the drawbacks of the prior art.
