Abstract

An extracted and positioning device of a fan is suitable to be used in industrial computers. A frame of a computer casing is installed with at least one fan fixing frame; the fixing frame is a frame body; each of two sides of the frame body is disposed with a lateral plate; the inner surface of each lateral plate has inward flanges; a rear end of the of the lateral plate is connected to a rear plate; a front bottom plate is connected in front of the lateral plate; a buckle with an elastic press is transversely and forwards protruded from the front bottom plate; further, a slidable frame plate is formed and is engagable with the fixing frame; the slidable frame plate has a {character pullout} (a Chinese word) shape; the slidable frame plate is slidable with two protrusions of the frame body; a front end of the frame plate has a pull with a through hole; a concave portion is at a middle portion of the front end of the pull, thereby, as the frame plate slides into the frame body, it can be positioned by the buckle; each of the four corners of the frame plate is connected to a fan; the fan slides on the fixing frame with the frame plate.
