Benefits of technology

The present patent relates to a mounting device for mounting a fan in an electronic device. The technical effect of the patent is to provide a mounting device that can effectively absorb the shock generated by fans without affecting other components in the device. This is achieved by using shockproof members made of elastic material, such as rubber, that are positioned between the fan and the components that need to be protected. The mounting device includes a board and a frame with fasteners and shockproof members, which help to prevent errors and improve the reliability of the device.

Problems solved by technology

However, shock generated by fans is often transmitted to other components mounted in the electronic device.
If the shock is too strong, it will affect the components that rely on mechanical heads to read and write date, such as hard drives and tape drives to work properly, and can even cause errors.

Embodiment Construction

[0009]The disclosure, including the accompanying drawings, is illustrated by way of example and not by way of limitation. It should be noted that references to “an” or “one” embodiment in this disclosure are not necessarily to the same embodiment, and such references mean at least one.

[0010]Referring to FIG. 1, an exemplary embodiment of a mounting device for mounting a fan 10 includes a board 20, a frame 30 (labeled in FIG. 2), four fasteners 60, and four shockproof members 40.

[0011]The fan 10 includes two spaced plates 12 at opposite ends, each plate 12 defines four corner holes 120.

[0012]The board 20 can be installed in an electronic device so that airflow from the fan 10 can be directed as desired. In this embodiment, the board 20 is installed to a bottom wall 70 of a chassis of an electronic device. The board 20 defines a vent 24. A substantially wedge-shaped projection 26 protrudes from the board 20 above the vent 24. Two substantially L-shaped blocking pieces 28 extend from t...

Abstract

A mounting device for fixing a fan includes a board, a frame, and two shockproof members. The board defines a vent. Two blocking pieces perpendicularly extend from the board at opposite sides of the vent. The frame is sandwiched between the blocking pieces. Two tabs extend from opposite sides of the frame. Each shockproof member is mounted between one of the blocking pieces and a corresponding one of the tabs.

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The present disclosure relates to a device for mounting a fan.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]Many electronic devices use fans to cool electronic components. However, shock generated by fans is often transmitted to other components mounted in the electronic device. If the shock is too strong, it will affect the components that rely on mechanical heads to read and write date, such as hard drives and tape drives to work properly, and can even cause errors. Therefore there is room for improvement in the art.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS[0005]Many aspects of the present embodiments can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present embodiments. Moreover, in the drawings, all the views are schematic, and like reference numerals designate corresponding parts througho...
