Auxiliary device mounting structure {MOUNTING STRUCTURE FOR A AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT}

The present invention relates to an auxiliary device mounting structure, and more particularly, to an auxiliary device mounting structure for mitigating transmission of external shocks and vibrations to the auxiliary device.

Rapid changes in the computer environment have led to continuous improvements in the hardware of the computer, leading to the multifunctionalization of computer systems. Since such changes are required not only for software but also for the mechanical structure of the computer system, the structural design of the computer system should be designed in consideration of the convenience of production and the user's convenience.

In general, in order for a computer to have one complete system, a series of peripheral devices including a terminal, a main memory, and an auxiliary memory and an input / output device must be provided in addition to the basic CPU. Among them, a representative of the auxiliary equipment is a hard disk driver, which is mounted on a computer main body.
