US Patent 8246382 Bendable patch panel structure

A bendable patch panel structure installed on a chassis includes a patch panel and a fixing element. The patch panel includes a first panel, a second panel, a hinge pivotally coupled between ends of the first and second panels, and a connecting plate separately installed at other ends of the first panel and second panel and pivotally coupled to the chassis. After the first and second panels are bent and adjusted, a fixing element for the appropriate connection is selected according to the shape of the two unfolded metal plates of the hinge, such that the installer can adjust the bending condition of the patch panel in a time-saving, effort-saving, quick and easy manner.
