Workstation: Arrow Bell

grabcad

The Arrow Bell is a modern and sleek desktop tower with sharp angular lines, symbolizing technicality and power. This design deviates from traditional box enclosure designs to create a unique appearance. The rear of the tower has a standard PC enclosure width that gradually flares out, mimicking a cow bell shape. The arrow aspect comes from the incorporation of hard lines pointing inward, resembling an arrow's shape. The minimalist front panel features a traditional BOXX-styled hole mesh aluminum front grill and direct access USB 3.0 ports (8), large central power switch with reset underneath, and three audio jacks (In, Out, Micro). A small offset Boxx logo is at the bottom. A 140mm fan provides hard drive cooling behind the lower part of the front panel. The front panel also includes LED lighting for power, HD, and Ethernet status, as well as a large soft white LED integrated into the top overhang for accent lighting purposes. The DVD player and optional drive bays are concealed behind an access door that seamlessly blends with the aluminum mesh. The enclosure is made from .03" thick tin or aluminum using stamping, cutting, and bending processes. The rear features a meshed ventilation system with .1" holes for styling purposes. Large painted Boxx logos grace both sides of the tower. The left side panel uses a 140mm fan for cooling. A recessed junk tray with a large LED light on top casts shadows on the ceiling. The enclosure also features convenient side handles for easy moving and relocation. For ease of transportation, the Arrow Bell has low-profile integrated casters in its base. Other design options include "Aqueous Quo" and "The Cage," while "The Clock Tower" is another distinct choice.
