[0002] The chassis is usually equipped with data storage devices, such as hard disks and magnetic disks, which need to be connected to the connectors in the chassis. The data storage devices need to be fixed to the mounting frame by screws, and then the mounting frame is fixed in the cabinet. In this way, if the hard disk needs to be removed, the connector needs to be disconnected from the hard disk first, and then the hard disk needs to be removed from the mounting frame by removing the screws, which is very inconvenient. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a data storage device fixing mechanism and a chassis having the data storage device fixing mechanism, which can facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the data storage device.

[0004] An embodiment of the present application provides a data storage device fixing mechanism, including a mounting frame, a baffle and a locking member. The mounting frame includes a frame and a sliding member, the frame having a receiving cavity and an opening connected to the receiving cavity, the receiving cavity being used to receive the data storage device. The sliding member is slidably disposed on the frame, and the sliding member is used to push the data storage device to move in a direction away from the receiving cavity. The baffle is rotatably disposed on the mounting frame to open or cover the opening. The locking member is disposed on the frame, and the locking member is used to lock the baffle in a state of covering the opening.

[0005] The above-mentioned data storage device fixing mechanism, when taking out the data storage device, releases the lock of the baffle plate by the locking member, rotates the baffle plate to open the opening of the frame body, and pushes the data storage device out of the accommodating cavity by sliding the sliding member, so as to facilitate the removal of the data storage device. When installing the data storage device, the data storage device is inserted into the accommodating cavity from the opening, and the baffle plate is rotated to a state where it can be locked with the locking member, so as to achieve the installation of the data storage device. In the process of disassembling and assembling the data storage device, no tools are required, thereby saving operation time and facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the data storage device.

[0006] In at least one embodiment, the baffle has a first limiting portion, and the locking member has a second limiting portion, the second limiting portion can form a limiting cooperation with the first limiting portion to lock the baffle, and the second limiting portion can produce elastic deformation in a direction away from the first limiting portion to unlock the baffle.

[0007] In the above embodiment, when the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion form a limiting match, the baffle can be locked, so that the baffle is not easy to rotate, so that the data storage device is not easy to escape from the accommodating cavity, and the installation stability of the data storage device is improved. When the opening needs to be opened, the second limiting portion is moved in a direction away from the first limiting portion to release the limiting of the second limiting portion on the first limiting portion, so that the baffle can rotate in the direction of opening the opening.

[0008] In at least one embodiment, the data storage device fixing mechanism also includes a limit member, which is arranged on the frame, and has a limit hole. The second limit portion can produce elastic deformation in the limit hole, and the limit member can limit the second limit portion from deforming in a direction away from the first limit portion.

[0009] In the above embodiment, the second limiting portion is located in the limiting hole. When the second limiting portion is deformed in a direction away from the first limiting portion, it is restricted by the limiting member, so that the second limiting portion is deformed within the range of the limiting hole, thereby making it difficult for the second limiting portion to be excessively deformed or broken due to excessive deformation.

[0010] In at least one embodiment, the data storage device fixing mechanism further includes a first elastic member, which is disposed on the frame or the sliding member and connected to the baffle, and the first elastic member can drive the baffle to rotate in a direction of opening the opening.

[0011] In the above embodiment, after the locking member unlocks the baffle, the baffle can rotate in the direction of opening the opening under the drive of the first elastic member, thereby facilitating the baffle to open the opening and improving the convenience of operation.

[0012] In at least one embodiment, the baffle is rotatably disposed on the sliding member, and the sliding member has a pushing portion on a side away from the baffle. When the sliding member slides in a direction away from the accommodating cavity, the pushing portion pushes the data storage device.

[0013] In the above embodiment, when the locking member releases the locking of the baffle, the sliding member can drive the baffle to slide, so that the baffle can move in a direction away from the accommodating cavity, thereby reducing the interference of the baffle with the opening, and facilitating the data storage device to be taken out from the opening. When the sliding member slides in a direction away from the accommodating cavity, the pushing portion can push the data storage device out of the accommodating cavity, thereby facilitating the data storage device to be taken out from the accommodating cavity.

[0014] In at least one embodiment, the data storage device fixing mechanism also includes a second elastic member, one end of the second elastic member is connected to the sliding member, and the other end of the second elastic member is connected to the frame, and the second elastic member can drive the sliding member to slide in the direction in which the data storage device is separated from the accommodating cavity.

[0015] In the above embodiment, when the sliding member slides along the direction in which the data storage device enters the accommodating cavity, the second elastic member undergoes elastic deformation, and the elastic force generated by the second elastic member can drive the sliding member to slide along the direction in which the data storage device leaves the accommodating cavity, so as to facilitate the removal of the data storage device from the accommodating cavity.

[0016] In at least one embodiment, the data storage device fixing mechanism also includes a stopper and a fixing member, the stopper is arranged on the frame and forms a sliding cavity with the frame; the frame has a mounting hole, the fixing member is arranged on the sliding member and is slidably arranged in the mounting hole, and part of the fixing member is slidably arranged in the sliding cavity.

[0017] In the above embodiment, the movement of the fixing member in the sliding cavity can limit the sliding stroke of the fixing member, and the stopper can also limit the fixing member from falling out of the mounting hole, thereby improving the stability of the fixing member during sliding, so that the fixing member is not easy to fall off from the mounting hole.

[0018] The embodiments of the present application also provide a chassis that can improve the convenience of installing a data storage device.

[0019] An embodiment of the present application provides a chassis, comprising a chassis body and a data storage device fixing mechanism in any of the above embodiments, wherein the data storage device fixing mechanism is disposed on the chassis body.

[0020] In the above-mentioned chassis, by installing the data storage device in the data storage fixing mechanism, the data storage device and the data storage device fixing mechanism can be assembled. When the data storage device is installed in the data storage device fixing mechanism, it can be installed without tools, thereby facilitating the assembly of the data storage device and the chassis.

[0021] In at least one embodiment, the chassis further comprises a connector, the connector being disposed on the chassis, and a plug-in portion being disposed at one end of the data storage device away from the baffle, and when the data storage device is located in the accommodating cavity, the plug-in portion is plugged into the connector. During the plugging process between the data storage device and the connector, the moving distance of the data storage device is the plug-in distance, and the sliding stroke of the sliding member is greater than the plug-in distance.

[0022] In the above embodiment, the data storage device and the connector can be connected by connecting the plug part and the connector. The sliding stroke of the sliding member is greater than the plugging distance of the data storage device, which facilitates the data storage device and the connector to be plugged in place and the data storage device and the connector to be stably connected.

[0023] In at least one embodiment, a light source is provided on a side of the data storage device close to the baffle, and when the data storage device is plugged into the connector, the light source lights up. The data storage device fixing mechanism also includes a light emitting tube, which is provided on a side of the baffle facing the light source, and a portion of the light emitting tube corresponds to the light source. The baffle is provided with a light through hole, and a portion of the light emitting tube corresponds to the light through hole, and a portion of the light emitting tube extends to the edge of the baffle.

[0024] In the above embodiment, by observing whether the light source is on, it can be determined whether the data storage device is properly connected to the connector. The light source can be emitted from the light-through hole and the edge of the baffle through the light-emitting tube, so that the light source can be observed from the side of the baffle facing the opening and the side of the edge of the baffle, which facilitates the observation of the installation of the data storage device from multiple angles.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0078] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0079] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the technical terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish different objects, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number, specific order or primary and secondary relationship of the indicated technical features. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "multiple" is more than two, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0080] It should be noted that the thickness, length, width and other dimensions of various components in the embodiments of the present application shown in the drawings, as well as the overall thickness, length, width and other dimensions of the integrated device are only exemplary and should not constitute any limitation to the present application.

[0081] The chassis is usually equipped with data storage devices, such as hard disks and magnetic disks, which need to be connected to the connectors in the chassis. The data storage devices need to be fixed to the mounting frame by screws, and then the mounting frame is fixed in the cabinet. In this way, if the hard disk needs to be removed, the connector needs to be disconnected from the hard disk first, and then the hard disk needs to be removed from the mounting frame by removing the screws, which is very inconvenient.

[0082] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a data storage device fixing mechanism, including a mounting frame, a baffle and a locking member. The mounting frame includes a frame and a sliding member, the frame having a receiving cavity and an opening connected to the receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity is used to receive the data storage device. The sliding member is slidably arranged on the frame, and the sliding member is used to push the data storage device to move in a direction away from the receiving cavity. The baffle is rotatably arranged on the mounting frame to open or cover the opening. The locking member is arranged on the frame, and the locking member is used to lock the baffle in a state of covering the opening.

[0083] The above-mentioned data storage device fixing mechanism, when taking out the data storage device, releases the lock of the baffle plate by the locking member, rotates the baffle plate to open the opening of the frame body, and pushes the data storage device out of the accommodating cavity by sliding the sliding member, so as to facilitate the removal of the data storage device. When installing the data storage device, the data storage device is inserted into the accommodating cavity from the opening, and the baffle plate is rotated to a state where it can be locked with the locking member, so as to achieve the installation of the data storage device. In the process of disassembling and assembling the data storage device, no tools are required, thereby saving operation time and facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the data storage device.

[0084] The embodiments of the present application are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0085] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a chassis 200, including a chassis 201, a data storage device 202, and a data storage device fixing mechanism 100. The data storage device fixing mechanism 100 is disposed in the chassis 200, and the data storage device 202 is disposed in the data storage device fixing mechanism 100. The data storage device fixing mechanism 100 can accommodate the data storage device 202, thereby realizing the assembly of the data storage device 202 and the chassis 200.

[0086] See also Figure 1 In some embodiments, the chassis 200 further includes a connector 203, which is disposed on the housing 201. When the data storage device 202 is installed on the data storage device fixing mechanism 100, the connector 203 is connected to the data storage device 202, thereby achieving connection between the housing 201 and the data storage device 202.

[0087] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the data storage device 202 includes a storage module 2021 and a plug-in portion 2022, and the storage module 2021 is connected to the plug-in portion 2022. When the storage module 2021 of the data storage device 202 is installed in the data storage device fixing mechanism 100, the plug-in portion 2022 is plugged into the connector 203. Through the connection between the plug-in portion 2022 and the connector 203, the connection between the data storage device 202 and the connector 203 can be achieved.

[0088] In some embodiments, a plurality of data storage devices 202 are provided, and a plurality of data storage device fixing mechanisms 100 are also provided, and each data storage device 202 is installed in one of the data storage device fixing mechanisms 100 .

[0089] See also Figure 3 In one embodiment, the data storage device fixing mechanism 100 includes a mounting frame 10, a baffle 20, and a locking member 30. The mounting frame 10 includes a frame 11, the frame 11 has a receiving cavity 111 and an opening 112 communicating with the receiving cavity 111, and the receiving cavity 111 is used to receive the data storage device 202. The baffle 20 is rotatably disposed on the mounting frame 10 to open or cover the opening 112. The locking member 30 is disposed on the frame 11, and the locking member 30 is used to lock the baffle 20 in a state of covering the opening 112.

[0090] When it is necessary to take out the data storage device 202 from the accommodating cavity 111, first release the lock of the locking member 30 on the baffle 20, and then rotate the baffle 20 to open the opening 112 of the frame 11, so that the data storage device 202 can be taken out. When it is necessary to install the data storage device 202 into the accommodating cavity 111, insert the data storage device 202 into the accommodating cavity 111 from the opening 112 along the X direction, and rotate the baffle 20 to a state where it can be locked with the locking member 30, so as to achieve the installation of the data storage device 202. In the process of disassembling and assembling the data storage device 202 and the data storage device fixing mechanism 100, no tools are required, thereby saving operation time and facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the data storage device 202.

[0091] See also Figures 3 to 5 In some embodiments, the baffle 20 has a first limiting portion 21, and the locking member 30 has a second limiting portion 31. The second limiting portion 31 can form a limiting cooperation with the first limiting portion 21 to lock the baffle 20, and the second limiting portion 31 can produce elastic deformation in a direction away from the first limiting portion 21 to unlock the baffle 20.

[0092] When the first limiting portion 21 and the second limiting portion 31 form a limiting fit, the baffle 20 can be locked, so that the baffle 20 is not easy to rotate, so that the data storage device 202 is not easy to escape from the accommodating cavity 111, thereby improving the installation stability of the data storage device 202. When the opening 112 needs to be opened, the second limiting portion 31 is moved in a direction away from the first limiting portion 21, that is, in the Y direction, to release the second limiting portion 31 from limiting the first limiting portion 21, so that the baffle 20 can rotate in the direction of opening the opening 112.

[0093] See also Figure 5In some embodiments, the first limiting portion 21 is a through hole, and the second limiting portion 31 is a limiting protrusion, which can be inserted into the through hole to limit the rotation of the baffle 20. In other embodiments, the first limiting portion 21 is a limiting protrusion, and the second limiting portion 31 is a through hole.

[0094] In some embodiments, the first limiting portion 21 is a groove, and the second limiting portion 31 is a limiting protrusion. Alternatively, the first limiting portion 21 is a limiting protrusion, and the second limiting portion 31 is a groove.

[0095] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the locking member 30 includes a mounting portion 32, the mounting portion 32 is connected to the second limiting portion 31, and the mounting portion 32 is fixed to the outer wall of the frame 11. The second limiting portion 31 can be elastically deformed in a direction away from the first limiting portion 21, so that the second limiting portion 31 and the first limiting portion 21 are unlocked.

[0096] See also Figures 3 to 5 In some embodiments, the data storage device fixing mechanism 100 also includes a limit member 40, which is disposed on the frame 11. The limit member 40 has a limit hole 41. The second limit portion 31 can generate elastic deformation in the limit hole 41. The limit member 40 can limit the second limit portion 31 from deforming in a direction away from the first limit portion 21.

[0097] When the second limiting portion 31 is deformed in a direction away from the first limiting portion 21, the second limiting portion 31 is restricted by the limiting member 40, so that the second limiting portion 31 is deformed within the range of the limiting hole 41, thereby preventing the second limiting portion 31 from being excessively deformed and being broken due to excessive deformation.

[0098] See also Figure 6 In some embodiments, the data storage device fixing mechanism 100 further includes a first elastic member 50 , which is disposed on the mounting frame 10 and connected to the baffle 20 . The first elastic member 50 can drive the baffle 20 to rotate in a direction of opening the opening 112 .

[0099] When the locking member 30 is released from locking the baffle 20 , the baffle 20 can be driven by the first elastic member 50 to rotate in the direction of opening the opening 112 , thereby facilitating the baffle 20 to open the opening 112 and improving the convenience of operation.

[0100] See also Figure 6In some embodiments, the first elastic member 50 is a torsion spring, the mounting frame 10 has a mounting shaft 12, the torsion spring is sleeved on the mounting shaft 12, and one end of the torsion spring abuts against the baffle 20, and the other end abuts against the mounting frame 10. One end of the baffle 20 is rotatably connected to the mounting shaft 12. When the baffle 20 rotates in the direction of opening the opening 112, the torsion spring is deformed, and the force generated by the torsion spring can drive the baffle 20 to rotate in the direction of covering the opening 112.

[0101] In some embodiments, the first elastic member 50 is disposed on the frame 11 . After the first elastic member 50 drives the baffle 20 to open the opening 112 , the data storage device 202 can be taken out from the opening 112 or loaded into the accommodating cavity 111 from the opening 112 .

[0102] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the frame 11 has an escape opening 115, which is located at an end of the frame 11 opposite to the opening 112. When the data storage device 202 enters the accommodating cavity 111 from the opening 112, the plug-in portion 2022 can pass through the accommodating cavity 111 from the escape opening 115 and connect to the connector 203. The provision of the escape opening 115 can reduce the interference between the plug-in portion 2022 and the frame 11, thereby facilitating the connection between the plug-in portion 2022 and the connector 203.

[0103] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the frame 11 includes a body 113 and a limiting piece 114, the limiting piece 114 and the frame 11 are enclosed to form an escape opening 115, the opening 112 is provided in the body 113, and the opening 112 and the escape opening 115 are located at two opposite ends of the body 113. The limiting piece 114 can limit the storage module 2021 from moving from the escape opening 115 to the outside of the accommodating cavity 111, so that the storage module 2021 is not easy to escape from the accommodating cavity 111. When the storage module 2021 is installed in the accommodating cavity 111, one end of the storage module 2021 connected to the plug-in portion 2022 abuts against the limiting piece 114, and the plug-in portion 2022 passes through the escape opening 115, so that when the data storage device 202 is installed upside down, the plug-in portion 2022 cannot pass through the escape opening 115, so that the data storage device 202 is not easy to be installed upside down, which is convenient for blind installation of the data storage device 202.

[0104] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the frame 11 has a heat dissipation port 116, which is connected to the accommodating cavity 111. When the data storage device 202 is working, the heat generated by it can be transferred from the heat dissipation port 116 to the outside of the frame 11, thereby reducing the accumulation of heat in the accommodating cavity 111, making the data storage device 202 less likely to be damaged, and improving the service life of the data storage device 202.

[0105] See also Figure 6 In one embodiment, the frame 11 is provided with an elastic metal sheet 117. When the data storage device 202 is installed in the accommodating cavity 111, the data storage device 202 contacts the elastic metal sheet 117 so that the data storage device 202 has a grounding function.

[0106] See also Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the mounting frame 10 further includes a sliding member 13, which is slidably disposed on the frame 11 and located in the accommodating cavity 111, and can slide relative to the frame 11 between a first position and a second position. When installing the data storage device 202, the data storage device 202 can be inserted into the accommodating cavity 111, which can drive the sliding member 13 to slide from the first position to the second position, that is, the sliding member 13 slides along the X direction; and when the data storage device 202 needs to be removed, the sliding member 13 can slide from the second position to the first position and push the data storage device 202 out of the accommodating cavity 111, that is, the sliding member 13 slides in the opposite direction of the X direction.

[0107] See also Figure 3 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the sliding member 13 includes a sliding portion 131 and a pushing portion 132, and the pushing portion 132 is connected to the sliding portion 131. The sliding portion 131 is slidably disposed in the frame 11, and the sliding member 13 is slidably disposed in the frame 11 through the sliding portion 131, and the sliding direction of the sliding portion 131 is the sliding direction of the sliding member 13. When the data storage device 202 is installed, the data storage device 202 is inserted into the accommodating cavity 111 and slides with the sliding member 13 by pushing the pushing portion 132; and when the data storage device 202 needs to be taken out, the sliding member 13 pushes the data storage device 202 out of the accommodating cavity 111 through the pushing portion 132. Here, "pushing the data storage device 202 out of the accommodating cavity 111" means that at least part of the data storage device 202 is located outside the accommodating cavity 111, so that the data storage device 202 can be completely taken out of the accommodating cavity 111.

[0108] See also Figure 7In some embodiments, the data storage device fixing mechanism 100 further includes a second elastic member 60, one end of the second elastic member 60 is connected to the sliding member 13, and the other end of the second elastic member 60 is connected to the frame 11. The second elastic member 60 can drive the sliding member 13 to slide in the direction in which the data storage device 202 is separated from the accommodating cavity 111. When the sliding member 13 slides from the first position to the second position, the second elastic member 60 elastically contracts, and the second elastic member 60 can generate a force that drives the sliding member 13 to slide from the second position to the first position when elastically contracting. The second elastic member 60 can make at least a portion of the data storage device 202 automatically slide out of the accommodating cavity 111 when the data storage device 202 is taken out, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the data storage device 202.

[0109] In some embodiments, the second elastic member 60 is a tension spring, and the expansion and contraction direction of the spring is consistent with the direction in which the data storage device 202 enters or moves away from the accommodating cavity 111. In other embodiments, the second elastic member 60 may also be other elastically deformable components such as rubber.

[0110] In some embodiments, the sliding portion 131 extends along the sliding direction of the sliding member 13, the pushing portion 132 is substantially perpendicular to the sliding portion 131, and the mounting shaft 12 is disposed at one end of the sliding portion 131 away from the pushing portion 132. When the sliding member 13 slides in a direction away from the accommodating cavity 111, the pushing portion 132 pushes the data storage device 202 toward the opening 112, so that the data storage device 202 is disconnected from the connector 203 and can be taken out of the accommodating cavity 111.

[0111] See also Figure 3 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the baffle 20 is rotatably disposed on the sliding member 13, and the push portion 132 is located on a side of the sliding member 13 away from the baffle 20. When the locking member 30 releases the lock on the baffle 20, the sliding member 13 can drive the baffle 20 to slide, so that the baffle 20 can move away from the accommodating cavity 111, thereby reducing the interference of the baffle 20 with the opening 112, and facilitating the removal of the data storage device 202 from the opening 112. Figure 7 In some embodiments, the data storage device fixing mechanism 100 further includes a fixing member 70, the frame 11 has a mounting hole 118, and the fixing member 70 is disposed on the sliding member 13 and slidably disposed in the mounting hole 118. One end of the second elastic member 60 is connected to the frame 11, and the other end of the second elastic member 60 is connected to the fixing member 70. The extending direction of the mounting hole 118 is consistent with the sliding direction of the sliding member 13. By sliding the fixing member 70 in the mounting hole 118, the sliding member 13 can be slid, thereby facilitating the taking and placing of the data storage device 202.

[0112] See also Figure 7In some embodiments, the mounting hole 118 includes a sliding position 1181 and a mounting position 1182 that are interconnected. The sliding position 1181 is used for the fixing member 70 to slide, and the fixing member 70 can be assembled to the sliding position 1181 from the mounting position 1182. The aperture of the mounting position 1182 is greater than or equal to the maximum outer diameter of the fixing member 70, and the aperture of the sliding position 1181 is smaller than the maximum outer diameter of the fixing member 70, so that the fixing member 70 is not easy to fall out of the sliding position 1181 during the sliding process along the sliding position 1181.

[0113] See also Figures 6 to 8 In some embodiments, the data storage device fixing mechanism 100 further includes a stopper 80, which is disposed on the frame 11 and forms a sliding cavity 81 with the frame 11, a portion of the fixing member 70 is slidably disposed in the sliding cavity 81, and the second elastic member 60 is located in the sliding cavity 81.

[0114] The fixing member 70 moves in the sliding cavity 81 , and the stop member 80 can limit the sliding stroke of the fixing member 70 . The stop member 80 can also limit the fixing member 70 from falling out of the mounting hole 118 , thereby improving the stability of the fixing member 70 during sliding, making it difficult for the fixing member 70 to fall off from the mounting hole 118 .

[0115] In some embodiments, the stopper 80 at least blocks a portion of the mounting position 1182 , which makes it difficult for the fixing member 70 to completely slide to the mounting position 1182 , thereby making it difficult for the fixing member 70 to fall out of the mounting position 1182 during the sliding process of the sliding member 13 .

[0116] See also Fig.10 In some embodiments, the frame 11 has a stopper 14, and the stopper 14 and the sliding hole moving member 13 are enclosed to form a chamber, and the fixing member 70 is located outside the chamber. The frame 11 is provided with a sliding hole 15, and the fixing member 70 is inserted into the sliding hole 15 and fixed to the sliding member 13. When the sliding member 13 slides, it drives the fixing member 70 to slide, so that part of the fixing member 70 slides in the sliding hole 15. This setting can limit the sliding stroke of the fixing member 70 and the sliding member 13 by limiting the length of the sliding hole 15.

[0117] See also Fig.10 In some embodiments, the second elastic member 60 is located in the chamber, and one end of the second elastic member 60 is connected to the sliding member 13 , and the other end is connected to the stopper 14 , and the stopper 14 can limit the deformation length of the second elastic member 60 .

[0118] In some embodiments, the plug-in portion 2022 is located at one end of the data storage device 202 away from the baffle 20. During the plug-in process of the plug-in portion 2022 of the data storage device 202 and the connector 203, the moving distance of the data storage device 202 is the plug-in distance, and the sliding stroke of the sliding member 13 is greater than the plug-in distance. The sliding stroke of the sliding member 13 is the maximum distance that the sliding member 13 can move in the direction in which the data storage device 202 enters the accommodating cavity 111. In this way, the sliding member 13 is not easy to limit the movement of the plug-in portion 2022, which facilitates the data storage device 202 and the connector 203 to be plugged in place, and facilitates the stable connection between the data storage device 202 and the connector 203.

[0119] See also Figure 7 and Fig. 9 In some embodiments, a light source is provided on a side of the data storage device 202 close to the baffle 20. When the data storage device 202 is plugged into the connector 203, the light source is turned on. The data storage device fixing mechanism 100 further includes a light emitting tube 90. The light emitting tube 90 is provided on a side of the baffle 20 facing the light source. A portion of the light emitting tube 90 corresponds to the light source. When the light source is turned on, light can be irradiated to the light emitting tube 90, so that the light emitting tube 90 emits light. The baffle 20 is provided with a light through hole 22. A portion of the light emitting tube 90 corresponds to the light through hole 22. A portion of the light emitting tube 90 extends to the edge of the baffle 20.

[0120] By observing whether the light source is on, it can be determined whether the data storage device 202 is properly connected to the connector 203. The light source can be transmitted through the light-through hole 22 and the edge of the baffle 20 through the light-emitting tube 90, so that the light source can be observed from the side of the baffle 20 facing the opening 112 and the side of the edge of the baffle 20, so that the installation status of the data storage device 202 can be observed from multiple angles.

[0121] See also Fig.10 In one embodiment, the baffle 20 includes a spring sheet 23, which is held against a side of the data storage device 202 facing away from the connector 203. The elastic force generated by the spring sheet 23 when deformed is directed toward the data storage device 202 to improve the stability of the connection between the data storage device 202 and the connector 203.

[0122] In addition, those skilled in the art may also make other changes in the present application. Of course, these changes made based on the present application should be included in the scope disclosed in the present application.
