Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of computing devices, and particularly relate to a bracket and a computing device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Computing devices in the form of servers and the like include a machine case, the machine case is provided with a plurality of installation slots for assembling computing nodes, the computing nodes include brackets and hard disks installed on the brackets. When the number of computing nodes required for use is small, some of the installation slots can be left empty, at this time, the brackets without hard disks can be used to fill in.

[0003] The bracket includes a main module and a handle module connected with each other, the main module is used for carrying the hard disk, and the handle module can facilitate the user to operate the bracket. The connection mode of the handle module and the main module includes lock screw connection, riveting, welding, clamping and the like, among which, the clamping has relatively wide application prospects due to the fact that it does not need to add new connecting pieces and is easy to operate. However, the conventional clamping scheme generally has a clamping gap, which causes the handle module and the main module to be loose after being connected, and abnormal sound is easily generated during operation.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a scheme to overcome the above-mentioned defects is still a technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. SUMMARY

[0005] Embodiments of the present application provide a bracket and a computing device, wherein the bracket has reliable connection between the handle module and the main module, and basically no looseness and abnormal sound during operation, and has high structural stability, which is conducive to reliable installation of the bracket in the computing device, and thus can improve the working performance of the computing device.

[0006] In a first aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide a bracket, which is applied to a computing device in the form of a server and the like, and can be used to accommodate electronic devices in the form of hard disks and the like, or to fill the vacant mounting slots in the computing device. The bracket comprises a handle module and a main module. The handle module is used to facilitate the push-pull operation of the bracket. The main module comprises a main frame. According to the functional differences of the bracket, the main frame can also have different structural configurations. For example, when the bracket needs to accommodate electronic devices in the form of hard disks and the like, the main frame can be configured with corresponding mounting structures to realize the assembly of the corresponding electronic devices. The main frame has a connecting plate. Among the handle module and the connecting plate, one is configured with a clamping member, and the other is configured with a clamping matching member. Among the clamping member and the clamping matching member, at least one of them can elastically deform in a first branch direction of the assembly direction of the clamping member and the clamping matching member, and at least one of them can elastically deform in a second branch direction of the assembly direction. The first branch direction and the second branch direction are arranged at an angle, which can be ninety degrees or other angle values. When the clamping member and the clamping matching member are in the clamped state, at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member is in an elastically deformed state in the first branch direction, so that the clamping member and the clamping matching member form an interference clamping in the first branch direction.

[0007] The first branch direction described above can be the arrangement direction of the handle module and the main module, and also the insertion direction of the handle module and the main module. During the clamping process, the clamping member and the clamping matching member can deform in the first branch direction or the second branch direction, and the deformations in the two directions can exist simultaneously. For the convenience of description, the deformation direction of the clamping member and the clamping matching member during the assembly process is collectively referred to as the assembly direction, which includes the first branch direction and the second branch direction.

[0008] During assembly, the handle module can be inserted into the main module along the first branch direction. During this process, at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member first elastically deforms in the second branch direction, so that the clamping member and the clamping matching member can avoid each other in the second branch direction, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the insertion assembly. After being inserted into place, at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member elastically returns in the second branch direction, so that the clamping member and the clamping matching member can be clamped in the first branch direction, and at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member can be in an elastically deformed state in the first branch direction, so that the clamping member and the clamping matching member can form an interference clamping in the first branch direction.

[0009] In this way, the handle module and the main module do not have a clamping gap in the first branch direction, the connection between the handle module and the main module is reliable, when the bracket is operated through the handle module, the force acting on the handle module can directly drive the main module to displace, there is no relative displacement between the handle module and the main module, and the operation is more labor-saving; at the same time, mutual impact of the handle module and the main module in the first branch direction during the push-pull operation and the operation abnormal sound caused thereby can be avoided, and the service life of the bracket can be longer; and the impact of the impact force on the hard disk and other electronic devices installed in the main module can be eliminated, the hard disk and other electronic devices can work in a relatively stable environment, which is also beneficial to guarantee the performance and service life of the hard disk, and thus the performance and stability of the entire computing device can be guaranteed.

[0010] Based on the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application also provide a first implementation of the first aspect: the clamping member includes a connecting arm, and the clamping matching member includes a matching arm; the connecting arm includes a curved arm segment, or the matching arm includes a curved arm segment, or both the connecting arm and the matching arm include a curved arm segment; the curved arm segment extends as a whole in the first branch direction, so that the connecting arm (the matching arm) provided with the curved arm segment has the capability of elastically deforming in the first branch direction.

[0011] The curved arm segment can be a bending arm segment including a plurality of segments, or an arc-shaped arm segment. The curved arm segment extends as a whole in the first branch direction means that at least one segment in the curved arm segment extends in the first branch direction, and there is also a segment arranged at an angle with the first branch direction; secondly, the line connecting the two ends of the curved arm segment extends approximately in the first branch direction, such as a wave-shaped, arc-shaped, etc.

[0012] The extension direction of at least part of the curved arm segment and the first branch direction can be arranged at an angle, so that the curved arm segment has the capability of elastically deforming in the first branch direction.

[0013] Based on the first implementation of the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application also provide a second implementation of the first aspect: the curved arm segment includes a first segment, a second segment and a third segment connected in sequence, the first segment and the third segment are respectively located on two sides of the second segment in the second branch direction, the first segment and the third segment extend in the first branch direction, the extension direction of the second segment and the extension direction of the first segment are arranged at an angle, and the extension direction of the second segment and the extension direction of the third segment are arranged at an angle, so that the curved arm segment approximately presents a “ㄣ” shape.

[0014] In fact, in the scheme in which the curved arm section includes multiple subsections, the number of the subsections is not limited to three as described above, and can be other numbers, and the extension direction and the setting position of each subsection are not limited to the above description, and in actual practice, a person skilled in the art can configure according to actual needs.

[0015] Based on the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application also provide a third implementation of the first aspect: the clamping member includes a connecting arm, and the clamping and mating member includes a mating arm; the connecting arm is provided with a hole portion, or the mating arm is provided with a hole portion, or both the connecting arm and the mating arm are provided with a hole portion, which can provide an elastic deformation space deformed in the first branch direction, so that the connecting arm (the mating arm) provided with the hole portion has the ability to deform in the first branch direction.

[0016] The extension direction of the hole portion can be the second branch direction, or can be arranged at an angle with the second branch direction and the first branch direction.

[0017] Based on the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application also provide a fourth implementation of the first aspect: the clamping member includes a connecting arm and a clamping portion, and the clamping and mating member includes a mating arm and a mating portion; both the connecting arm and the mating arm include a root and a free end, taking the scheme that the clamping member is arranged in the handle module and the clamping and mating member is arranged in the main module as an example, the root of the connecting arm can be connected to the handle module, and the root of the mating arm can be connected to the main module; the clamping portion is located at the free end of the connecting arm to fully utilize the connecting arm for deformation, and the mating portion is located at the free end of the mating arm to fully utilize the mating arm for deformation.

[0018] The clamping portion can be provided with a first clamping block, and the mating portion can be provided with a second clamping block, and in the assembled state, the clamping portion and the mating portion can be interference clamped in the first branch direction, and the first clamping block and the second clamping block can be clamped in the second branch direction. In this way, the clamping member and the clamping and mating member can form an anti-loose design, which can better avoid accidental separation of the clamping member and the clamping and mating member due to factors such as vibration during use, can more greatly ensure the connection reliability between the handle module and the main module, and can ensure the service life of the bracket, thereby improving the operation stability of the electronic devices such as hard disks installed in the bracket, and being beneficial to ensuring the performance of the computing device.

[0019] The first clamping block and the second clamping block can form a clamping position, and in the second branch direction, the root of the connecting arm and the root of the mating arm can be located on the same side or different sides of the clamping position, so as to form clamping members and clamping and mating members with different structural forms. When the clamping and mating member interferes with the insertion of the clamping member, the clamping and mating member can be provided with a relief hole for the clamping member to pass through.

[0020] The connecting arm can be linear, and an extension direction from a root of the connecting arm to a free end of the connecting arm can be arranged at an angle with the second branch direction, so that the connecting arm also has elastic deformation capability along the second branch direction; similarly, the matching arm can also be linear, and an extension direction from a root of the matching arm to a free end of the matching arm can be arranged at an angle with the second branch direction, so that the matching arm also has elastic deformation capability along the second branch direction. In this design, the structural form of the connecting arm and the matching arm can be relatively simple.

[0021] In specific practice, the matching part can have a portion protruding from the free end of the matching arm in the second branch direction, which can be referred to as a protruding portion. In the second branch direction, if the protruding portion is on a side of the matching arm away from the connecting arm, the protruding portion can serve as a poking part, and in specific assembly, a worker can exert a poking force on the poking part by means of a screwdriver or other operating tools or directly by hand, to drive the clamping matching member to elastically deform in the first branch direction and / or the second branch direction, thereby facilitating the clamping of the clamping member and the clamping matching member. In the second branch direction, if the protruding portion is on a side of the matching arm toward the connecting arm, the protruding portion can cooperate with the clamping part to form interference clamping in the first branch direction.

[0022] The matching part and the clamping part can be provided with guide surfaces for guiding the clamping of the clamping member and the clamping matching member. The number and structural form of the guide surfaces can not be limited.

[0023] Based on the first aspect, or based on any one of the first to fourth implementation manners of the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application further provide a fifth implementation manner of the first aspect: the main frame can include a ring plate part and a support plate part, the ring plate part is used to constitute an external frame of the main module, and can protect devices (such as hard disks) installed in the main frame, and the ring plate part includes the connecting plate; the support plate part is connected with the inner plate wall of the ring plate part, and there is a gap between the support plate part and the connecting plate, which can be used for ventilation, and can also be used for avoiding the clamping member and the clamping matching member.

[0024] The surface of the support plate part can be provided with a rib plate, which can improve the structural strength of the support plate part, and thus the structural strength of the main module can be improved to ensure the structural stability of the bracket during use.

[0025] The main frame further comprises a reinforcing plate part, a normal direction of the reinforcing plate part and a normal direction of the support plate part can be arranged at an angle, the reinforcing plate part comprises a wide plate segment and a narrow plate segment, the wide plate segment is connected with the connecting plate, and the narrow plate segment is connected with the support plate part, so as to adapt to the size difference of the support plate part and the connecting plate in the normal direction of the support plate part. By adopting this scheme, the reinforcing plate part can construct the structural connection between the support plate part and the connecting plate, and the structural strength of the main module can be improved to a greater extent, so as to ensure the structural stability of the bracket during use.

[0026] The connecting plate is further provided with a through hole, the clamping member of the handle module can pass through the through hole and be clamped with the clamping fitting member. In actual application, the root of the connecting arm of the clamping member can be matched with the through hole, so that the root of the connecting arm and the through hole can form a tight fit. In this way, the connection reliability and stability of the main module and the handle module can be improved, and the collision noise between the handle module and the main module can be eliminated, and the bracket can have higher structural stability, which can better ensure the stable operation of the electronic devices such as hard disks installed on the bracket, and further ensure the performance and stability of the entire computing device.

[0027] In specific practice, a column hole positioning structure can be additionally arranged between the connecting plate and the handle module, so as to further improve the connection reliability of the handle module and the main module, and further improve the structural stability of the bracket.

[0028] Based on the first aspect or any one of the first to fifth implementation manners of the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application further provide a sixth implementation manner of the first aspect: the main frame comprises two frame side plates arranged opposite to each other in the second branch direction, and at least one frame side plate is provided with an elastic plate capable of being elastically deformed in the second branch direction, and the elastic plate is provided with a support rib on the side away from the corresponding frame side plate in the second branch direction.

[0029] The computing device is provided with a mounting slot, and the bracket can be mounted in the corresponding mounting slot. The mounting slot has a slot side plate, and in the assembled state, the elastic plate is in an elastically deformed state in the second branch direction, and the elastic plate can abut against the slot side plate through the support rib to form a ventilation gap between the elastic plate and the slot side plate.

[0030] In this way, the elastic plate can effectively absorb the installation gap of the frame side plate and the slot side plate in the second branch direction, so as to ensure the stability of the main module in the mounting slot, thereby better avoiding the shaking of the main module in the mounting slot and the abnormal noise caused thereby during assembly and use. In specific practice, in order to better adapt to the deformation of the elastic plate in the second branch direction, the frame side plate can also have a concave design to form a relief groove.

[0031] And, the setting of the supporting rib can reduce the contact area between the elastic plate and the frame side plate, can keep the ventilation gap between the elastic plate and the frame side plate, and thus can guarantee the effect of ventilation and heat dissipation. In this way, the electronic device such as a hard disk installed in the main module can have a better working environment, and the working performance can be better guaranteed.

[0032] Based on the first aspect, or based on any one of the first to sixth implementation forms of the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application further provide a seventh implementation form of the first aspect: the handle module is further configured with a limiting component capable of elastically deforming in the second branch direction, the limiting component includes a deforming member and a limiting part, and the limiting part has a limiting surface. The limiting part can be limited in the first branch direction by the limiting surface and the mounting slot, and the reliability of the fixed assembly of the bracket in the mounting slot can be further improved.

[0033] Based on the first aspect, or based on any one of the first to seventh implementation forms of the first aspect, the embodiments of the present application further provide an eighth implementation form of the first aspect: the bracket further includes a shielding component, the shielding component includes a shielding bottom plate and a shielding side plate, the shielding bottom plate is provided with a first hole, the clamping member passes through the first hole, and the shielding bottom plate of the shielding component is press-fitted between the handle module and the main module.

[0034] In the embodiments of the present application, the clamping member and the clamping cooperation member can not only guarantee the reliable connection of the handle module and the main module, but also guarantee the reliable connection of the shielding component. After assembly is completed, the shielding component will not displace in the first branch direction relative to the handle module and the main module, so that the shielding component and the handle module and the shielding component and the main module will not produce operation abnormal sound, and the structural stability of the bracket can be further improved.

[0035] The shielding component is used to realize electromagnetic shielding, and is also used to absorb the installation gap between the bracket and the mounting slot, and can guarantee the installation stability of the bracket in the case.

[0036] In the second aspect, the embodiments of the present application further provide a computing device including a case, the case is provided with a plurality of mounting slots, each mounting slot is configured with a bracket, wherein all the brackets can be installed with electronic devices in the form of hard disks, or there can be some brackets without electronic devices. In the above brackets, at least one bracket is the bracket involved in the first aspect or any one of the implementation forms of the first aspect, the bracket is inserted into the mounting slot, the insertion direction of the bracket is the first branch direction, and the second branch direction is perpendicular to the first branch direction.

[0037] Since the bracket has high stability, the bracket can also have relatively high stability after being assembled in the mounting slot, and the electronic device such as the hard disk mounted in the bracket can have a relatively stable working environment, and thus can have better working performance.

[0038] Based on the second aspect, the second embodiment of the second aspect is provided: the main frame includes two frame side plates arranged opposite to each other in the second branch direction, at least one frame side plate is provided with an elastic plate capable of being elastically deformed in the second branch direction, and one side of the elastic plate away from the corresponding frame side plate is provided with a support rib in the second branch direction; the mounting slot has a slot side plate, the elastic plate is in an elastically deformed state in the second branch direction, and the elastic plate abuts against the slot side plate through the support rib to form a ventilation gap between the elastic plate and the slot side plate.

[0039] After assembly, the elastic plate can effectively absorb the installation gap of the frame side plate and the slot side plate in the second branch direction to ensure the stability of the main module in the mounting slot, so that the shaking of the main module in the mounting slot and the abnormal sound generated thereby during assembly and use can be better avoided. In specific practice, in order to better adapt to the deformation of the elastic plate in the second branch direction, the frame side plate can also have a concave design to form a clearance groove.

[0040] Moreover, the arrangement of the support rib can reduce the contact area between the elastic plate and the frame side plate, and can reserve the ventilation gap between the elastic plate and the slot side plate, so that the effect of ventilation and heat dissipation can be ensured. In this way, the electronic device such as the hard disk mounted in the main module can have a better working environment, and the working performance can be better ensured.

[0041] Based on the second aspect, the second embodiment of the second aspect is provided: the main frame includes two frame side plates arranged opposite to each other in the second branch direction, at least one frame side plate is provided with an elastic plate capable of being elastically deformed in the second branch direction, and one side of the elastic plate away from the corresponding frame side plate is provided with a support rib in the second branch direction; the mounting slot has a slot side plate, the elastic plate is in an elastically deformed state in the second branch direction, and the elastic plate abuts against the slot side plate through the support rib to form a ventilation gap between the elastic plate and the slot side plate.

[0042] The above-mentioned limiting cooperation part can be the hole wall of the limiting cooperation hole, of course, it can also be other structure forms. Taking the limiting cooperation hole as an example, the limiting cooperation hole can extend in the second branch direction, and in the assembled state, the limiting part can abut along the first branch direction through the limiting surface and the hole wall of the limiting cooperation hole to ensure the reliable assembly of the bracket in the mounting slot, and thus the installation stability of the bracket in the mounting slot is improved.

[0043] The deformation member has a deformation capacity in the second branch direction, and its structure can be designed according to the clamping member and the clamping matching member as described above. When the deformation member is deformed, the limiting part can enter or leave the limiting matching hole.

[0044] To ensure that the limiting part can smoothly leave the limiting matching hole, the limiting surface and the reference surface can be arranged at a set angle, so that the limiting surface can avoid the limiting matching part when the deformation member is elastically deformed in the second branch direction. In this way, the damage to the limiting part during operation can be reduced, and the service life and stability of the handle module during long-term use can be ensured. At the same time, the set angle is smaller than the friction angle of the limiting part and the limiting matching part. In this way, under the premise of ensuring the smoothness of the limiting part, the limiting part in the assembled state can also rely on the static friction between the limiting part and the limiting matching part to ensure the reliability of the abutment of the limiting part and the limiting matching part in the first branch direction.

[0076] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0077] Herein, the "first", "second", "third" and the like are only for the convenience of describing structures and / or functions of two or more structures or components that are the same or similar, and do not represent a certain special limitation on the order and / or importance.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The structural schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of the computing device involved in the embodiments of the present application.

[0079] As Figure 1 shown, the computing device in the form of a server and the like includes a cabinet 100, the cabinet 100 is provided with a plurality of installation slots 101, each installation slot 101 includes a slot top plate 101a and a slot bottom plate 101b oppositely arranged and two slot side plates 101c oppositely arranged, used for assembling a computing node 200. Generally speaking, the computing node 200 includes a bracket and an electronic device in the form of a hard disk mounted on the bracket, the bracket is used for inserting and mounting the electronic device in the form of a hard disk into the installation slot 101. In some embodiments, the bracket described above which can install the hard disk is also referred to as a hard disk bracket.

[0080] In practical applications, the chassis 100 is provided by a chassis manufacturer, and the number of mounting slots 101 configured by the chassis manufacturer is determined, such as Figure 1 That is, the chassis 100 including 16 mounting slots 101 is schematically shown. For users, there is often a mismatch between the number of mounting slots 101 and the number of computing nodes 200 actually needed. If the number of computing nodes 200 needed is greater than the number of mounting slots 101, more chassis 100 can be configured to solve the problem. If the number of computing nodes 200 needed is less than the number of mounting slots 101, there will be a phenomenon that some mounting slots 101 are vacant, at which time the vacant mounting slots 101 can be configured with brackets to avoid problems such as air leakage. In some embodiments, the bracket that is not installed with a hard disk and only plays a filling role is also called a false hard disk bracket. For ease of distinction, the bracket that can be installed with a hard disk can be called a true hard disk bracket.

[0081] Both the true hard disk bracket and the false hard disk bracket include a main module and a handle module connected to each other. The handle module is used for a user to push and pull the bracket to push the true hard disk bracket / false hard disk bracket into the mounting slot 101 or pull the true hard disk bracket / false hard disk bracket out of the mounting slot 101. The main module of the true hard disk bracket is used for installing electronic devices such as hard disks, and the main module of the false hard disk bracket is mainly used for forming the main structure of the bracket.

[0082] As described in the background section, when the handle module and the main module are connected in the conventional scheme using a clamping connection, there is a connection gap between the handle module and the main module, and the connection is loose. Thus, when the bracket is operated through the handle module, the handle module and the main module can produce relative displacement, the force acting on the handle module cannot directly act on the main module, but has to first overcome the friction force generated by the relative displacement between the handle module and the main module, which is more laborious to operate; and, it is also easy to produce abnormal noise, and the experience of use is poor.

[0083] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a bracket, which can be the aforementioned true hard disk bracket or the aforementioned false hard disk bracket. The bracket includes a handle module and a main module, the arrangement direction of the handle module and the main module is a first branch direction, and the direction arranged at an angle with the first branch direction is a second branch direction. In the handle module and the main module, one can be provided with a clamping member, and the other can be provided with a clamping matching member. At least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member has the ability to elastically deform in the first branch direction, and at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member has the ability to elastically deform in the second branch direction.

[0084] In the assembling process, the handle module can be inserted into the main module along the first branch direction. In this process, at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member is elastically deformed in the second branch direction, so that the clamping member and the clamping matching member can avoid each other, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the insertion assembly; after being inserted in place, at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member is elastically returned in the second branch direction, so that the clamping member and the clamping matching member can be clamped in the first branch direction, and at least one of the clamping member and the clamping matching member can be in an elastically deformed state in the first branch direction, so that the clamping member and the clamping matching member can form an interference clamping in the first branch direction. In this way, the handle module and the main module do not have a clamping gap in the first branch direction, and the connection between the handle module and the main module is reliable. When the handle module is operated, the force acting on the handle module can directly drive the main module to displace, and there is no relative displacement between the handle module and the main module, which is more labor-saving. At the same time, it can also avoid the mutual impact of the handle module and the main module in the first branch direction during the push-pull operation, and the operation abnormal sound caused thereby, and the service life of the bracket can be longer. Moreover, it can also eliminate the impact of the impact force on the electronic devices such as hard disks installed in the main module, and the electronic devices such as hard disks can work in a relatively stable environment, which is also beneficial to ensure the performance and service life of the hard disk, thereby ensuring the performance and stability of the entire computing device.

[0085] For a detailed description, please refer to Figures 2-8 , Figure 2 is a structural schematic view of a specific embodiment of the bracket provided by the embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 is Figure 2 front view, Figure 4 is Figure 3 the local enlarged view of the A area, Figure 5 is Figure 4 the structural schematic view of the clamping member in the bracket, Figure 6 is Figure 4 the structural schematic view of the clamping matching member in the bracket, Figure 7 is Figure 6 deformation scheme, Figure 8 is Figure 5 the structural schematic view of the clamping member in the bracket and Figure 7 the structural schematic view of the clamping matching member in the bracket in a state during the assembling process.

[0086] As Figures 2-4As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a bracket, which comprises a handle module 1 and a main module 2. Wherein, the handle module 1 is configured with a clamping component 3; the main module 2 comprises a main frame, and the structure and function of the main frame can be different according to whether the bracket is a real hard disk bracket or a false hard disk bracket. The main frame has a connecting plate 211, which is provided with a clamping matching component 4. The first branch direction and the second branch direction can be perpendicular.

[0087] The clamping component 3 and the handle module 1 can be an integral structure, that is, an integral structure formed during preparation; or, the clamping component 3 and the handle module 1 can also be manufactured separately, and then assembled through locking screw connection, riveting, welding, bonding, fusion, etc. Similarly, the clamping matching component 4 and the main module 2 can also be an integral structure or a separately manufactured structure, and when manufactured separately, the clamping matching component 4 and the main module 2 can also be assembled through locking screw connection, riveting, welding, bonding, fusion, etc.

[0088] In combination Figure 5 The clamping component 3 can comprise a connecting arm 31 and a clamping part 32, and the clamping part 32 can be located at the connecting arm 31.

[0089] The connecting arm 31 can be linear, and the extension direction of the connecting arm 31 can form a ninety-degree angle with the second branch direction, so that the connecting wall 31 has the ability to elastically deform in the second branch direction. The connecting arm 31 can comprise a root and a free end. In order to distinguish from the matching arm 41, the root of the connecting arm 31 can be referred to as a first root, and the free end of the connecting arm 31 can be referred to as a first free end. Figure 5 In the position shown, the first root refers to the lower end of the connecting arm 31, and the first free end refers to the upper end of the connecting arm 31. The connecting arm 31 can be connected to the handle module 1 through the first root, and the first free end can rotate relative to the first root to realize the deformation of the clamping arm 31 in the second branch direction. It should be known that the deformation of the connecting arm 31 in the second branch direction is realized by the rotation of the first free end, and in the process of rotation, the connecting arm 31 can actually deform in the first branch direction; thus, the deformation of the clamping arm 31 (and the matching arm 41 mentioned later) in the embodiment of the present application can also be referred to as deformation in the assembly direction, which can be decomposed into the first branch direction and the second branch direction mentioned above.

[0090] The clamping part 32 can be specifically located at the first free end of the connecting arm 31, so that the clamping part 32 can make the most of the deformation of the connecting arm 31, and the range of deformation can be larger. It should be noted that the scheme in which the clamping part 32 is located at other positions of the connecting arm 31 is also feasible in specific practice.

[0091] In combination Figure 6The clamping fitting member 4 can include a fitting arm 41 and a fitting portion 42, and the fitting portion 42 can be located at the fitting arm 41.

[0092] The fitting arm 41 can include a curved arm segment, which includes a plurality of subsegments connected in sequence, and the extension directions of adjacent two subsegments can be arranged at an angle, and the curved arm segment as a whole extends in the first branch direction. Here, the extension of the whole in the first branch direction includes two cases: one is that at least one of the curved subsegments extends in the first branch direction, and there is also an angle between the subsegment and the first branch direction, which can be seen from Figure 6 ; the other is that the line connecting the two ends of the curved arm segment extends in the first branch direction, such as a wave type, and here, the substantially includes the case of being collinear and being at an angle, and the specific allowed angle is not limited here. Regardless of which of the above cases, the curved arm segment has at least one subsegment whose extension direction can be arranged at an angle with the first branch direction, so that the curved arm segment can have the ability to elastically deform in the first branch direction.

[0093] The number of subsegments included in the curved arm segment and the angle between adjacent two subsegments can not be limited.

[0094] In the embodiment shown in Figure 6 , the fitting arm 41 can include a first subsegment 411, a second subsegment 412 and a third subsegment 413 connected in sequence. Among them, the first subsegment 411 and the third subsegment 413 both extend along the first branch direction, and the first subsegment 411 and the third subsegment 413 are respectively located on both sides of the second subsegment 412 in the second branch direction; the second subsegment 412 extends substantially in the second branch direction, and the extension direction thereof is at an angle of ninety degrees with the first branch direction, so that the fitting arm 41 can elastically deform in the first branch direction. It can be understood that the deformation of the fitting arm 41 in the first branch direction is realized by the rotation of the second subsegment 412, and in the process of rotation, the spacing between the first subsegment 411 and the second subsegment 412 in the second branch direction also changes, therefore, Figure 6 the fitting arm 41 shown in elastically deforms in the first branch direction and also elastically deforms in the second branch direction.

[0095] Further, the third subsegment 413 of the fitting arm 41 is also provided with a second hole portion 41a, which can provide an elastic deformation space for the deformation of the fitting arm 41 in the first branch direction. Through the arrangement of the second hole portion 41a, the fitting arm 41 can also have the ability to elastically deform in the first branch direction.

[0096] It can be understood that the second hole portion 41a and the aforementioned curved arm segment can both realize the elastic deformation of the fitting arm 41 in the first branch direction. In actual practice, one of them can be used by those skilled in the art.

[0097] The number, shape and arrangement position of the second hole portion 41a are not limited here. In the embodiment, the second hole portion 41a is arranged on the second segment 412. Figure 6 In the embodiment, the second hole portion 41a extends in the second branch direction and penetrates the third segment 413. In actual application, the extension direction of the second hole portion 41a can also form an angle less than 90 degrees with the second branch direction, so that the second hole portion 41a formed in this way can also provide the elastic deformation space as described above.

[0098] The fitting arm 41 also has a root and a free end. In order to distinguish from the connecting arm 31, the root of the fitting arm 41 can be called the second root, and the free end of the fitting arm 41 can be called the second free end. The second root can be used to connect with the connecting plate 211. The fitting portion 42 can be arranged at the second free end; in this way, the fitting portion 42 can make the best use of the deformation of the fitting arm 41, and the deformation range can be larger. It should be noted that the scheme in which the fitting portion 42 is located at other positions of the fitting arm 41 is also feasible in actual practice.

[0099] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 The fitting portion 42 can protrude from the third segment 413 in the second branch direction, and for the convenience of description, this protruding part can be called the first protruding part. The first protruding part and the second segment 412 can be respectively located on both sides of the third segment 413 in the second branch direction, and in the second branch direction, the first protruding part protrudes away from the connecting arm 31. The first protruding part can serve as a poking part, and in actual assembly, a worker can exert a poking force on the poking part by means of a screwdriver or other operating tools or directly by hand to drive the clamping fitting member 4 to elastically deform in the first branch direction and / or the second branch direction, thereby facilitating the clamping of the clamping member 3 and the clamping fitting member 4.

[0100] In some optional embodiments, as Figures 4-6As shown, the clamping portion 32 is provided with a first clamping block 321 away from one side of the connecting arm 31, and the matching portion 42 is provided with a second clamping block 421 close to one side of the connecting arm 31, and the first clamping block 321 and the second clamping block 421 can abut in the second branch direction to form a clamping assembly in the second branch direction. In this way, the clamping member 3 and the clamping matching member 4 can form an anti-loose design, which can better avoid accidental separation of the clamping member 3 and the clamping matching member 4 due to factors such as vibration during use, and can more greatly ensure the connection reliability between the handle module 1 and the main module 2, and ensure the service life of the bracket, thereby improving the operation stability of the electronic devices such as hard disks installed on the bracket, and being beneficial to ensuring the performance of the computing device.

[0101] The first clamping block 321 and the second clamping block 421 form a clamping position. In Figures 2-8 the embodiment, the first root and the second root can be located on the same side of the clamping position in the second branch direction, and in addition, the curved arm segment design is adopted for the matching arm 41, and when assembling, the matching arm 41 will interfere with the clamping member 3. To avoid the above interference, a avoiding hole 41b can be provided on the matching arm 41.

[0102] In Figure 6 the embodiment, the avoiding hole 41b is provided on the second segment 412 and the first segment 411. It can be understood that the position of the avoiding hole 41b is related to the installation position, size of the clamping member 3 and the size of each segment of the matching arm 41; in Figure 7 the variant shown, the second segment 412 has a larger size in the second branch direction to be sufficient to provide the avoiding hole 41b for the clamping member 3 to pass through, at this time, the first segment 411 and the third segment 413 do not need to be provided with the avoiding hole 41b, that is, the assembly requirement of the clamping member 3 and the clamping matching member 4 can be met.

[0103] Further, as Figure 5 shown, the clamping portion 32 can also be provided with a first guide surface 322 for guiding the insertion and assembly of the clamping member 3; as Figure 9 shown, the matching portion 42 can also be provided with a second guide surface 4a for guiding the clamping of the clamping portion 32.

[0104] Taking the clamping member 3 in Figure 5 and the clamping matching member 4 in Figure 7 as an example, the following embodiments of the present application will be described in detail. Figure 8

[0105] When not assembled, the structure of the clamping member 3 and the clamping matching member 4 can refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 ​, both of which are not deformed. When assembling, as shown in Figure 8 , a force can be applied to the first protruding portion of the fitting portion 42 to drive the clamping fitting member 4 to elastically deform in the first branch direction and the second branch direction, which are collectively referred to as the assembly direction, and the clamping fitting member 4 can also be described as elastically deformed in the assembly direction. Due to the elastic deformation of the clamping fitting member 4 in the second branch direction, the interference between the clamping fitting member 4 and the clamping member 3 in the second branch direction can be eliminated, and when the pull handle module 1 and the main module 2 are inserted and assembled, the clamping member 3 can smoothly pass through the avoidance hole 41b. It can be understood that if the deformation of the clamping fitting member 4 in the second branch direction is not sufficient to completely avoid the clamping member 3, the clamping member 3 can be passively elastically deformed in the assembly direction during the process of passing through the avoidance hole 41b, wherein the first guide surface 322 is used to guide the insertion of the clamping member 3. After the pull handle module 1 and the main module 2 are inserted and assembled in place, the clamping fitting member 4 can be controlled to return in the second branch direction and release the fitting portion 42. At this time, the clamping portion 32 and the fitting portion 42 can abut in the first branch direction, and the clamping fitting member 4 is still in an elastically deformed state in the first branch direction, which can form an interference clamping to ensure the reliable connection of the pull handle module 1 and the main module 2 in the first branch direction. In addition, the second guide surface 4a can guide the first clamping block 321 and the second clamping block 421 to form a stop in the second branch direction to prevent the clamping of the clamping member 3 and the clamping fitting member 4 from being locked. After installation is completed, the clamping member 3 is not deformed in the first branch direction and the second branch direction, the clamping fitting member 4 is in an elastically deformed state in the first branch direction, and the clamping fitting member 4 is also in an elastically deformed state in the second branch direction.

[0106] In the above embodiment, the clamping member 3 needs to pass through the curved arm segment. In fact, it is also feasible that the clamping member 3 does not pass through the curved arm segment. Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , Figure 9 , which are structural schematic diagrams of the first deformation scheme of the clamping member and the clamping fitting member, Figure 10 , which is a structural schematic diagram of the clamping fitting member in Figure 9 .

[0107] As shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the first root and the second root are located on both sides of the engagement position in the second branch direction, so that the clamping member 3 and the clamping matching member 4 are oppositely arranged in the second branch direction. The matching arm 41 also includes a first segment 411, a second segment 412 and a third segment 413, and the matching portion 42 is connected with the third segment 413; and the matching portion 42 has a part protruding from the third segment 413 in the second branch direction, which can be referred to as a second protruding part. Unlike the embodiment of Figures 2-8 , the second protruding part and the second segment 412 are located on the same side of the third segment 413 in the second branch direction; in the second branch direction, the second protruding part protrudes towards the connecting arm 31.

[0108] When assembling, the clamping matching member 4 can be elastically deformed in the first branch direction and the second branch direction under the action of the first guide surface 322 of the clamping member 3. The elastic deformation of the matching portion 42 will be mainly introduced below, combined with Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the matching portion 42 is also provided with a third guide surface 4b, and the first guide surface 422 and the third guide surface 4b can interact during the insertion process of the pull handle module 1 and the main module 2, so that the matching portion 42 can rotate counterclockwise around the connection between the matching portion 42 and the third segment 413 to elastically deform in the first branch direction and the second branch direction, thereby avoiding the clamping portion 32; as the insertion depth increases, the clamping portion 32 can act on the second guide surface 4a, so that the matching portion 42 can rotate clockwise around the connection between the matching portion 42 and the third segment 413 until the first clamping block 321 and the second clamping block 421 can be clamped in the second branch direction. In the clamped state, at least the matching portion 42 is in an elastically deformed state in the first branch direction to ensure that the clamping member 3 and the clamping matching member 4 can form an interference fit in the first branch direction; and since the matching portion 42 itself is a cantilever structure, it will also be in an elastically deformed state in the second branch direction when it is elastically deformed in the first branch direction.

[0109] In the above description of the embodiments of the Figures 2-10 , the matching arm 41 adopts a curved arm segment, and the connecting arm 31 extends in the first branch direction. In fact, the matching arm 41 and the connecting arm 31 can also adopt other structural forms. Please refer to Figures 11-16 , Figure 11 for the structure diagram of the second variant of the clamping member and the clamping matching member, Figure 12 for the structure diagram of the third variant of the clamping member and the clamping matching member, Figure 13 for the structure diagram of the fourth variant of the clamping member and the clamping matching member, Figure 14 for the structure diagram of the fifth variant of the clamping member and the clamping matching member,Figure 15 Structure diagram of a sixth variant of the snap-in member and the snap-in mating member, Figure 16 Structure diagram of a seventh variant of the snap-in member and the snap-in mating member.

[0110] As shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the connecting arm 31 and the mating arm 41 can both be straight arms extending along the first branch direction, at this time, the structure of the snap-in member 3 and the snap-in mating member 4 can be relatively simple, and the occupied space of the snap-in member 3 and the snap-in mating member 4 in the second branch direction after assembly can be relatively small. In this embodiment, the connecting arm 31 can realize its elastic deformation in the first branch direction by setting the first hole part 311, and the mating arm 41 can realize its elastic deformation in the first branch direction by setting the second hole part 41a. The first hole part 311 and the second hole part 41a can be set alternatively, or can exist simultaneously.

[0111] As shown in Figures 13-15 , the connecting arm 31 can still be a straight arm extending along the first branch direction; the mating arm 41 can also be a straight arm, and the extending direction of the mating arm 41 from the second root to the second free end can form a non-90-degree angle with the second branch direction, so that the mating arm 41 can have the ability to deform in the second branch direction. In this embodiment, the first root and the second root can be located on the same side of the second branch direction at the engagement position, and the mating arm 41 is provided with a clearance hole 41b for the snap-in member 3 to pass through. According to the different angles between the mating arm 41 and the second branch direction, the relative positions of the first root and the second root can be different, and correspondingly, the occupied space of the snap-in member 3 and the snap-in mating member 4 in the second branch direction after assembly can be different. In specific practice, those skilled in the art can choose to use different schemes according to the requirements of the installation space.

[0112] Figure 14 and Figure 15 , the mating arm 41 is also provided with a second hole part 41a, which can provide an elastic deformation space and can also be used to realize the elastic deformation of the mating arm 41 in the first branch direction. Figure 15 In the embodiment shown in , the connecting arm 31 is provided with a first hole part 311, which can provide an elastic deformation space, so that the connecting arm 31 also has the ability to elastically deform in the first branch direction.

[0113] Figure 16As shown, the extension direction of the connecting arm 31 from the first root to the first free end can also form a non-90 degree angle with the second branch direction, so that the connecting arm 31 can have the ability to deform in the second branch direction. Also, the connecting arm 31 can be provided with a first hole portion 311, which also allows the connecting arm 31 to deform in the second branch direction. In this embodiment, both the connecting arm 31 and the cooperating arm 41 have two structures that elastically deform in the first branch direction, and have stronger deformation ability.

[0114] The above embodiments of the application mainly describe the specific structures of the clamping member 3 and the clamping cooperating member 4, and the following embodiments of the application will also describe the structures at other positions of the bracket and the cooperation structure of the bracket and the mounting slot 101.

[0115] Please refer to Figure 17 , Figure 17 The split view of the bracket provided by the embodiments of the application.

[0116] As Figure 17 shown, the main frame of the main module 2 can include a ring plate portion 21, which is a closed ring and is used to form the outer frame of the main module 2, and can protect the devices (such as hard disks, etc.) mounted in the main frame. The ring plate portion 21 includes the aforementioned connecting plate 211, two frame side plates 212 arranged opposite to each other, and a frame bottom plate 214, wherein the connecting plate 211 and the frame bottom plate 214 are arranged opposite to each other in the first branch direction, and the two frame side plates 212 are arranged opposite to each other in the second branch direction. The inner side of the ring plate portion 21 is also provided with a support plate portion 22, which is used to improve the overall structural strength of the main frame, so as to ensure the structural stability of the bracket during use.

[0117] The support plate portion 22 can be connected to the frame bottom plate 214 and the two frame side plates 212, and the support plate portion 22 and the connecting plate 211 can be arranged with a gap in the first branch direction to form a gap 24. The gap 24 can avoid the clamping member 3 and the clamping cooperating member 4; and the gap 24 can also be used for ventilation. The size of the gap 24 can be determined in combination with the wind resistance required to be configured in actual application.

[0118] The surface of the support plate portion 22 is provided with a rib plate 221, which can improve the structural strength of the support plate portion 22, and thus can improve the structural strength of the main module 2, so as to ensure the structural stability of the bracket during use. The arrangement position and number of the rib plate 221 are not limited here. Figure 17 As shown in the embodiment, the number of the rib plate 221 can be two, and the two rib plates 221 can be arranged in a cross shape.

[0119] Further, the reinforcing plate part 23 can also be included, which is arranged in the aforementioned gap 24 and used to connect the support plate part 22 and the connecting plate 211 to build the structural connection between the support plate part 22 and the connecting plate 211, so as to greatly improve the structural strength of the main module 2 and ensure the structural stability of the bracket during use. Here, the structural form, number and arrangement position of the reinforcing plate part 23 are not limited in the embodiments of the present application, and can be determined by the person skilled in the art according to the actual installation requirements.

[0120] It can be known that the first branch direction and the second branch direction can determine a plane, and the direction perpendicular to the plane can be referred to as the third direction.

[0121] Specifically Figure 17 In the embodiment, the number of the reinforcing plate part 23 can be one, and the normal direction of the reinforcing plate part 23 can be the second branch direction, and the normal direction of the reinforcing plate part 23 and the normal direction of the support plate part 22 can form an angle of 90 degrees. In the first branch direction, the size of the reinforcing plate part 23 in the third direction can be gradually changed to form a generally conical plate. In this way, one end of the reinforcing plate part 23 can be a wide plate segment, and the other end can be a narrow plate segment; the wide plate segment can be used to connect with the connecting plate 211; and the narrow plate segment can be connected with the support plate part 22, and specifically can be connected with the rib plate 221 of the support plate part 22. By using this scheme, the reinforcing plate part 23 can well adapt to the size change of the support plate part 22 and the connecting plate 211 in the third direction, so as to better reinforce the structural strength of the main module 2, and thus the stability of the bracket during use can be improved.

[0122] The connecting plate 211 can be provided with a through hole 211a, and the clamping member 3 of the handle module 1 can pass through the through hole 211a and be clamped with the clamping and cooperating member 4.

[0123] In actual application, the first root of the connecting arm 31 of the clamping member 3 can be adapted to the through hole 211a, and here the adaptation refers to that the shape and size of the cross section perpendicular to the first branch direction are basically the same. In this way, after the connecting arm 31 is inserted into the through hole 211a and clamped with the clamping and cooperating member 4, the outer wall surface of the first root and the inner hole wall of the through hole 211a can form a tight fit, and through the mutual limiting of the outer wall surface of the first root and the inner hole wall of the through hole 211a, the clamping member 3 will not move in the second branch direction and the third direction relative to the main module 2, so as to greatly improve the connection reliability and stability of the main module 2 and the handle module 1, and more favorably eliminate the collision noise between the handle module 1 and the main module 2, so that the bracket has higher structural stability, which can better ensure the stable work of the electronic devices such as hard disks installed on the bracket, and thus the performance and stability of the entire computing device can be ensured.

[0124] Further, the connecting plate 211 can be further provided with a positioning hole 211b, and the handle module 1 can be provided with a positioning column (not shown in the figure), which can be inserted into the positioning hole 211b in the assembled state. The cooperation of the positioning column and the positioning hole can also overcome the relative displacement of the handle module 1 and the main module 2 in the second branch direction and the third direction, thereby ensuring the reliable connection of the handle module 1 and the main module 2.

[0125] The connecting plate 211 can also be provided with a ventilation hole 211c for ventilation.

[0126] Still as Figure 17 shown, the bracket involved in the embodiments of the present application can also include a shielding component 5 for electromagnetic shielding. In the first branch direction, the handle module 1, the shielding component 5 and the main module 2 can be arranged in sequence. The shielding component 5 includes a shielding bottom plate 51, two oppositely arranged first shielding side plates 52 and two oppositely arranged second shielding side plates 53; wherein the two first shielding side plates 52 can be oppositely arranged in the third direction, and the two second shielding side plates 53 can be oppositely arranged in the second branch direction.

[0127] The shielding bottom plate 51 is provided with a first hole (not shown in the figure) through which the clamping member 3 can pass, and a second hole (not shown in the figure) through which the positioning column can pass, in the assembled state, the clamping member 3 can pass through the first hole and be clamped with the clamping fitting member 4, and the aforementioned positioning column can pass through the second hole and be inserted into the positioning hole, so that the shielding bottom plate 51 can be press-fitted between the handle module 1 and the main module 2. In this way, in the embodiments of the present application, the clamping member 3 and the clamping fitting member 4 can not only ensure the reliable connection of the handle module 1 and the main module 2, but also ensure the reliable connection of the shielding component 5, and the shielding component 5 will not displace relative to the handle module 1 and the main module 2 in the first branch direction, so that no abnormal sound will be generated between the shielding component 5 and the handle module 1, and between the shielding component 5 and the main module 2, and the structural stability of the bracket can be further improved.

[0128] In combination Figure 1 , the relative positions of the groove top plate 101a and the groove bottom plate 101c in the third direction, and the two groove side plates 101c oppositely arranged in the second branch direction. In addition to the shielding component 5 can play a role in electromagnetic shielding, it can also be used to realize the close fit of the bracket and the groove top plate 101a, the groove bottom plate 101b in the third direction, and the close fit of the bracket and the two groove side plates 101c in the second branch direction, which can further improve the reliability and stability of the bracket in the installation groove 101.

[0129] Specifically, the first shielding side plate 52 is used to absorb the assembly gap between the bracket and the slot top plate 101a / slot bottom plate 101b, and the second shielding side plate 53 is used to absorb the assembly gap between the bracket and the slot side plate 101c.

[0130] Please refer to Figure 18 , Figure 18 for the connection structure diagram of the first shielding side plate, the handle module and the connecting plate in the assembled state.

[0131] As shown in Figure 18 , the first shielding side plate 52 can include a first plate segment 521, a second plate segment 522 and a third plate segment 523 connected in sequence, the first plate segment 521 and the second plate segment 522 can be arranged at an angle, and the second plate segment 522 and the third plate segment 523 can also be arranged at an angle, which enables the first shielding side plate 52 to elastically deform in the first branch direction and the third direction; the handle module 1 can be provided with a receiving groove 12, and the third plate segment 523 can be located in the receiving groove 12. When the bracket is loaded into the mounting slot 101, the first plate segment 521 and the second plate segment 522 can be compressed to elastically deform in the third direction, thereby absorbing the assembly gap between the bracket and the slot top plate 101a / slot bottom plate 101b, and the third plate segment 523 can further penetrate into the receiving groove 12. When the bracket is pulled out of the mounting slot 101, the first shielding side plate 52 can return to its original shape by relying on its own elasticity.

[0132] The structure and installation method of the second shielding side plate 53 can refer to the first shielding side plate 52. In combination with Figure 17 , the size of the second shielding side plate 53 in the third direction is much smaller than the size of the first shielding side plate 52 in the second branch direction, so the structural stability of the second shielding side plate 53 is relatively high, and thus the handle module 1 can not be provided with the receiving groove 12 to accommodate the plate segment of the second shielding side plate 53 away from the shielding bottom plate 51.

[0133] Please refer to Figures 19-20 , Figure 19 for the connection structure diagram of the limiting part and the slot side plate, Figure 20 for Figure 19 the local enlarged view of the connection between the limiting part and the slot side plate.

[0134] After being loaded into the mounting slot 101, the bracket can also be fixed to the mounting slot 101 by clamping. As shown in Figure 19 and Figure 20As shown, the slot side plate 101c is provided with a limiting fitting hole 101d, and the hole wall of the limiting fitting hole 101d can form a limiting fitting part 101d-1; the handle module 1 can be provided with a limiting component 11, which includes a deformed member 111 and a limiting part 112, wherein the limiting part 112 can be matched with the limiting fitting part 101d-1 to clamp the bracket in the mounting slot 101, and the deformed member 111 can at least elastically deform in the second branch direction to drive the limiting part 112 to enter or leave the limiting fitting hole 101d.

[0135] The elastic deformation of the deformed member 111 in the second branch direction can refer to the foregoing connecting arm 31 and the matching arm 41, which will not be repeated here. In the embodiment of the drawings, as shown, Figure 19 The deformed member 11 includes two plate segments at an angle of 90 degrees with the second branch direction, so that the elastic deformation of the deformed member 11 in the second branch direction can be realized.

[0136] It can be known that the deformed member 111 also includes a root and a free end, and the root is fixedly arranged. When the deformed member 111 needs to be operated, the free end can be pressed to drive the entire deformed member 111 to rotate around the root, and drive the limiting part 112 to enter or leave the limiting fitting hole 101d.

[0137] The limiting part 112 has a limiting surface 112a, and when the limiting part 112 is located in the limiting fitting hole 101d, the limiting part 112 can specifically abut along the first branch direction through the limiting surface 112a and the limiting fitting part 101d-1. For convenience of description, a plane perpendicular to the first branch direction can be taken as a reference surface X, the limiting fitting hole 101d extends along the second branch direction, and the limiting surface 112a can form a set angle α with the reference surface X, so that when the deformed member elastically deforms along the second branch direction, the limiting surface 112a and the limiting fitting part 101d-1 do not interfere with each other, so that the limiting part 112 can smoothly leave the limiting fitting hole 101d, thereby reducing the damage to the limiting component 11, and further ensuring the service life and stability of the handle module 1 in the long-term use process.

[0138] And the set angle a is smaller than the friction angle between the limiting part 112 and the limiting matching part 101d-1. The friction angle is a physical concept for characterizing the critical state of sliding, and its specific meaning is that when the object is in the critical state of sliding, the static friction reaches the maximum value, and the angle between the resultant force of the static friction and the supporting force and the supporting force. With this scheme, under the premise of ensuring the smoothness of the disengagement of the limiting part 112, the limiting part 112 in the assembled state can also rely on the static friction between it and the limiting matching part 101d-1 to ensure the reliability of the abutment of the limiting part 112 and the limiting matching part 101d-1 in the first branch direction. The specific value of the set angle a is not limited here, and those skilled in the art can set it according to the actual situation during implementation. As an exemplary illustration, the set angle a can be between 3°-5°.

[0139] Please refer to Figures 21-22 , Figure 21 is a connection structure diagram of the frame side plate, the elastic plate and the slot side plate, Figure 22 is Figure 21 a sectional view in the B-B direction.

[0140] As Figure 21 shown, at least one of the two frame side plates 212 of the ring plate part 21 can be provided with an elastic plate 213, which can be used to absorb the gap between the main module 2 and the slot side plate 101a in the second branch direction, to ensure the stability of the main module 2 in the installation slot 101, so that the shaking of the main module 2 in the installation slot 101 during assembly and use can be better avoided, and the abnormal noise caused thereby can be better avoided.

[0141] The elastic plate 213 can be a bent plate, one end of which can be connected to the frame side plate 212, and the other end can be a free end. During assembly, the main module 2 can be in close contact with the frame side plate 212 through the elastic plate 213. It can be understood that the elastic plate 213 can also be a straight plate, as long as its extension direction can form an angle less than ninety degrees with the second branch direction, so that it has the ability to deform in the second branch direction.

[0142] In order to better adapt to the deformation of the elastic plate 213 in the second branch direction, the frame side plate 212 can also have a concave design to form a clearance groove 212a.

[0143] Further, as Figure 22As shown, in the second branch direction, the one side of the elastic plate 213 away from the corresponding frame side plate 212 is also provided with a supporting rib 213a, and the elastic plate 213 can be in contact with the frame side plate 212 through the supporting rib 213a. In this way, the contact area between the elastic plate 213 and the frame side plate 212 can be reduced, and the ventilation gap between the elastic plate 213 and the slot side plate 101c can be reserved, so that the effect of ventilation and heat dissipation can be guaranteed. In this way, the electronic devices such as hard disks installed in the main module 2 can have a better working environment and better working performance.

[0144] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
