[0038] The present invention will be described in more detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following description of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings is only illustrative and not restrictive. The various embodiments can be combined with each other to form other embodiments not shown in the following description.
[0039] Embodiment 1
[0040] Please also read Figures 1 to 3 In this embodiment, a fixing structure 100 applied to a PCBA board 30 is provided. The fixing structure 100 has a simple structure and is easy to assemble. It can reduce the stress on components during assembly, avoid stress concentration, and avoid tin cracking, and has good applicability.
[0041] The fixing structure 100 at least comprises: a structural body 10 and at least one pair of elastic members 20. A notch 11 is formed on the structural body 10. The notch 11 is arranged in a U shape. Two opposite sides of the notch 11 are provided with mounting grooves 12. The PCBA board 30 can be vertically inserted and fixed on the structural body 10 along the mounting grooves 12. Each elastic member 20 is arranged in each mounting groove 12 in a one-to-one correspondence. A barb 21 is formed on one side of the elastic member 20 facing the side of the mounting groove 12. The barb 21 can be embedded and fixed at the side wall of the mounting groove 12. At the same time, the elastic member 20 can be tightly fixed against the edge of the PCBA board 30.
[0042] In order to limit the assembly position of the elastic member 20, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the two opposite sides of the installation groove 12 are formed with limiting bosses 13 arranged in a mirror image, and one end of the elastic member 20 facing the bottom surface of the recess 11 can abut against each limiting boss 13, so as to limit the assembly position of the elastic member 20. It can be understood that the installation groove 12 forms two guide rail sections of different sizes with the limiting boss 13 as the boundary, which can be respectively recorded as: a first groove section and a second groove section, the first groove section is far away from the bottom surface of the recess 11, the size of the first groove section is adapted to the size of the elastic member 20, the second groove section is connected to the bottom surface of the recess 11, and the size of the second groove section is adapted to the PCBA board 30, so as to limit the PCBA board 30 based on the second groove section.
[0043] It can be understood that in order to achieve the abutment between the barb portion 21 and the side wall of the mounting groove 12, the structural body 10 is a plastically deformable structural member, so that the barb portion 21 can be embedded and fixed on the side wall of the mounting groove 12; or, embedding notches corresponding to and abutting against each barb portion 21 are respectively formed on the opposite side surfaces of the mounting groove 12. In this way, the barb portion 21 can be embedded in the embedding notch to fix the elastic member 20 on the structural body 10.
[0044] Among them, the elastic member 20 is formed with a guide groove 22, and a pressing portion 221 is provided on the two opposite side walls of the guide groove 22. Each pressing portion 221 is inclined toward each other. When the PCBA board 30 is inserted into the guide groove 22, each pressing portion 221 can be tightly fixed with the edge of the PCBA board 30.
[0045] It can be understood that the insertion and fixing process of the PCBA board 30 in this embodiment can be described as: the staff installs each elastic member 20 into the corresponding first groove section, and makes the elastic member 20 abut against the limiting boss 13 on the side facing the recess 11; then, the PCBA board 30 is inserted from top to bottom along the guide groove 22 until the PCBA board 30 is abutted and fixed with the bottom surface of the recess 11. At this time, the barb portion 21 is squeezed by the PCBA board 30 and embedded and fixed to the side wall of the mounting groove 12, and each pressing portion 221 is also abutted and fixed with the edge of the PCBA board 30. With such a configuration, the elastic member 20 can be fixed based on the cooperation between the barb portion 21 and the structural body 10, and the PCBA board 30 can be fixed by the abutment fixation of the pressing portion 221 and the PCBA board 30, thereby realizing the fixed assembly among the elastic member 20, the structural body 10 and the PCBA board 30, thereby achieving the purpose of quickly and vertically inserting and fixing the PCBA board 30, and the installation is convenient, the assembly efficiency is good, and the overall assembly occupies less space.
[0046] Embodiment 2
[0047] The difference from the above-mentioned embodiment 1 is that:
[0048] Please also read Figures 4 to 6 In order to better fix the PCBA board 30 vertically inserted into the mounting slot 12 based on the pressing portion 221, a limiting opening 31 is formed on a layer of the PCBA board 30 facing the mounting slot 12, and each pressing portion 221 can be inserted into the limiting opening 31, so that each pressing portion 221 can be stuck at the limiting opening 31, thereby achieving the effect of preventing the PCBA board 30 from falling out of the mounting slot 12.
[0049] Embodiment 3
[0050] The difference from the above-mentioned embodiment 2 is that:
[0051] Please also read Figures 7 to 10 The elastic member 20 provided in this embodiment is formed with a guide groove 22, and the two side wall ends of the guide groove 22 facing the bottom surface of the notch 11 are formed with a pressing portion 221, and each pressing portion 221 is at least partially movably overlapped. It can be understood that when the PCBA board 30 is not inserted into the guide groove 22, the two pressing portions 221 at least partially overlap each other. Fig. 9As shown; when the PCBA board 30 is gradually inserted along the guide groove 22, the two pressing portions 221 can be separated from each other under the push of the PCBA board 30 until the two pressing portions 221 are connected to the limiting opening 31 opened on the PCBA board 30, and then the two pressing portions 221 penetrate into the limiting opening 31 and the two pressing portions 221 return to a partially overlapping state. In this way, the purpose of preventing the PCBA board 30 from falling out can be achieved based on the card-butt limit between the two pressing portions 221 and the limiting opening 31.
[0052] Embodiment 4
[0053] The difference from the above-mentioned embodiment 1 is that:
