Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fixed structures, and in particular to a fixed structure. Background Art

[0002] How to ensure that the components in electronic components are stably fixed has always been a problem that the art urgently needs to solve. For example, when a user wants to install a processing module (e.g., a graphics processing unit (GPU)) more firmly in a frame, in order to enhance the fixing effect, an additional fixing structure can generally be used to stop and fix the processing module. In detail, the processing module includes an extension piece (e.g., a GPU iron piece) arranged around it. When the user installs the processing module in the frame, the extension piece can be moved along a groove or track arranged on the inner wall of the frame to facilitate the user's installation operation. Therefore, the extension piece can be abutted against by the additional fixing structure to achieve the purpose of stopping and fixing the processing module.

[0003] However, the specifications of processing modules manufactured by different brands are not the same. For example, the lengths of extensions of processing modules of different specifications are different, and the traditional fixing structure can only fix processing modules with specific specifications. Therefore, when the user chooses processing modules of other specifications, it is necessary to manufacture fixing structures that can meet the processing modules of different specifications. This leads to an increase in the cost of product development. Therefore, making the fixing structure able to cope with the size difference problem between processing modules of various specifications, or the tolerance problem between processing modules of the same specification, is one of the design focuses of the fixing structure.

[0004] In addition, due to the narrow space inside the chassis, whether the fixing structure is easy to operate and whether it can firmly fix the processing module so that the processing module does not jump is also one of the design focuses of the fixing structure.

[0005] Therefore, how to propose a fixed structure that can solve the above problems is one of the problems that the industry is eager to invest research and development resources to solve. Summary of the invention

[0006] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a fixing structure to address the problem that the traditional fixing structure is difficult to adapt to processing modules of different sizes and the size differences of the processing modules due to tolerance.

[0007] According to a first aspect of the present application, a fixing structure is provided, comprising:

[0008] A fixing portion configured to be fixed to a frame;

[0009] A movable portion, slidably connected to the fixed portion, and the movable portion is configured to abut against a processing module located in the frame;

[0010] At least one elastic member, wherein two ends of the at least one elastic member are respectively in contact with the fixed portion and the movable portion; and

[0011] A knob, pivotally connected to the fixed portion, the knob being configured to selectively engage with or disengage from the movable portion, wherein the knob protrudes toward a side of the fixed portion away from the movable portion;

[0012] When the knob is separated from the movable part, the elastic member can push the movable part toward a direction away from the fixed part to abut against an extension member of the processing module located in the frame, and the extension member is arranged on the peripheral side of the processing module.

[0013] In one embodiment, the number of the elastic members is two, and the two elastic members are respectively located on two opposite sides of the knob in the z-axis direction.

[0014] In one embodiment, the fixed portion and the movable portion form a receiving space, and the knob is disposed in the receiving space and protrudes from the receiving space in a direction away from the movable portion.

[0015] In one embodiment, the movable portion includes a first engaging portion, and the knob includes a second engaging portion, and the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion engage with each other so that the movable portion is fixed relative to the fixed portion.

[0016] In one embodiment, the first engaging portion includes a plurality of first saw teeth, and the plurality of first saw teeth constitute a plurality of first grooves; the second engaging portion includes a plurality of second saw teeth, and the plurality of second saw teeth constitute a plurality of second grooves; the plurality of first saw teeth are configured to be able to engage with the plurality of second grooves, and the plurality of second saw teeth are configured to be able to engage with the plurality of first grooves; wherein the plurality of first saw teeth include a first vertical surface and a first inclined surface, and the plurality of second saw teeth include a second vertical surface and a second inclined surface.

[0017] In one embodiment, the knob includes a stopper, the fixed portion includes two stopper protrusions, and when the stopper abuts against one of the two stopper protrusions, the knob disengages from the movable portion, and when the stopper abuts against the other of the two stopper protrusions, the knob engages with the movable portion.

[0018] In one embodiment, the knob comprises a rotating portion, the rotating portion is located at a side of the fixed portion away from the movable portion, and the rotating portion is configured to enable the knob to be separated from the movable portion when subjected to a rotational force.

[0019] In one of the embodiments, the fixed portion includes two sliding grooves spaced apart along the z-axis direction, and the movable portion includes two protrusions corresponding to the two sliding grooves, and the two protrusions are constructed to be able to slide back and forth in the two sliding grooves respectively.

[0020] In one embodiment, the fixing structure further includes a pivoting portion, the pivoting portion is pivotally connected to a top cover and can rotate relative to the top cover, wherein the top cover is connected to the frame and is located above the processing module.

[0021] In one embodiment, the fixing structure further includes a torsion spring, and the torsion spring is fixed on the knob.

[0022] In summary, since the knob in the fixing structure of the present application is pivotally connected to the fixing portion and protrudes toward the side of the fixing portion away from the movable portion, the user can easily operate the fixing structure in a narrow chassis without worrying about getting his hands hurt in the chassis.

[0077] The following application content will now be more fully described here by the accompanying drawings and reference materials, and some exemplary embodiments are depicted in the accompanying drawings. The application can be implemented in different forms and should not be limited by the embodiments mentioned below. However, these embodiments are provided to help a more complete understanding of the content of the application and fully convey the scope of the application to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals will refer to similar elements throughout the entire text.

[0078] In addition, the illustrations provided in this application are drawn according to the actual scale. In order to maintain the simplicity of the description, the scales of each component are not listed one by one, but the scales and positions of each component should be regarded as part of the content of this description.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 1 . Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an electronic component 10 according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the electronic assembly 10 includes a fixed structure 100, a plurality of processing modules 200, a frame 300 and a top cover 400. The processing module 200 is configured to be mounted on the frame 300. In some embodiments, the fixed structure 100 is fixed to the frame 300 by a positioning column 302. The fixed structure 100 is configured to fix the processing module 200 located in the frame 300 so that the processing module 200 can be stably fixed in the frame 300. The top cover 400 is located above the processing module 200. The top cover 400 is configured to cover and protect the processing module 200. The fixed structure 100 includes a pivoting portion 102. The fixed structure 100 is rotatably pivoted to the top cover 400 by the pivoting portion 102. The fixed structure 100 can pivot relative to the top cover 400 along the direction of arrow A1 when it is not fixed by the positioning column 302.

[0080] Please refer to Figure 2 . Figure 2 3D is a perspective view of an electronic assembly 10 according to an embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, a processing module 200 is mounted on a frame 300. The processing module 200 includes a housing 205 and an extension piece 210 disposed around the housing 205. The fixing structure 100 is configured to abut against the extension piece 210 of the processing module 200 to prevent the processing module 200 from falling off the frame 300.

[0081] In some embodiments, the processing module 200 may be a graphics processing unit (GPU) or any suitable component, and the present application does not limit the type or appearance of the processing module 200 .

[0082] In some embodiments, the frame 300 may be a riser cage.

[0083] The structure and function of each component included in the fixing structure 100 of this embodiment and the connection relationship between the components will be described in detail below.

[0084] Please also refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 . Figure 3 It is a three-dimensional diagram of a fixing structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 41 is an exploded view of a fixing structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, the fixing structure 100 includes a fixing portion 110, a movable portion 120, a knob 130, an elastic member 140, and a torsion spring 150. The fixing portion 110 is slidably connected to the movable portion 120 along the axial direction x. The fixing portion 110 includes two sliding grooves 114 spaced apart along the axial direction z. The movable portion 120 includes two protrusions 124 spaced apart along the axial direction z. The two sliding grooves 114 are respectively slidably connected to the two protrusions 124 in the axial direction x. In other words, the protrusions 124 are configured to be able to slide relative to the sliding grooves 114 along the axial direction x. The fixing portion 110 includes a through hole 116. The knob 130 is pivotally connected to the fixing portion 110 through the through hole 116 along the axial direction x. The knob 130 protrudes toward a side of the fixing portion 110 away from the movable portion 120. The knob 130 is configured to be able to selectively engage with or disengage from the movable portion 120 by rotation. The elastic member 140 is disposed between the fixed portion 110 and the movable portion 120. Two ends of the elastic member 140 are respectively configured to abut against the fixed portion 110 and the movable portion 120. The knob 130 includes a groove 131 for combining with the torsion spring 150.

[0085] In some embodiments, the elastic member 140 and the torsion spring 150 may be a spring or any suitable elastic material.

[0086] Please also refer to Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 In some embodiments, the fixing portion 110 includes a positioning hole 112 . The positioning hole 112 is used to correspond to the positioning column 302 . The positioning column 302 passes through the positioning hole 112 to fix the fixing portion 110 on the frame 300 .

[0087] Please also refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 . Figure 5 for Figure 3 The cross-sectional view of the fixing structure observed along the cutting plane line 5-5. In the present embodiment, the fixing portion 110 includes two stop protrusions 118a and 118b. The knob 130 includes a stopper 138. The stopper 138 is configured to be rotatable relative to the fixing portion 110. When the stopper 138 abuts against the stopper protrusion 118a, the knob 130 is disengaged from the movable portion 120. When the stopper 138 abuts against the stopper protrusion 118b, the knob 130 is engaged with the movable portion 120. The stopper protrusion 118a is configured to limit the rotation amplitude of the knob 130. The stopper protrusion 118b is configured to limit the stopper 138 when the torsion spring 150 is elastically released, so that the knob 130 can just engage with the movable portion 120 when the torsion spring 150 is elastically released. Due to the narrow space in the chassis, it is not always possible to visually confirm the engagement or separation of the knob 130 and the movable portion 120. The knob 130 can be operated simply and intuitively by the stopper protrusions 118a, 118b and the torsion spring 150.

[0088] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the movable portion 120 includes two receiving grooves 122 for receiving two elastic members 140 respectively. The two receiving grooves 122 are respectively located on opposite sides of the knob 130 in the axial direction z. In other words, the two elastic members 140 are respectively located on opposite sides of the knob 130 in the axial direction z. Such a structural design can make the force on the movable portion 120 more uniform when the elastic member 140 returns to push against the movable portion 120 through its own elastic force.

[0089] Please also refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 . In the present embodiment, the fixed portion 110 and the movable portion 120 form an accommodating space OP. The knob 130 includes a rotating portion 139. The knob 130 and the torsion spring 150 are disposed in the accommodating space OP. The rotating portion 139 of the knob 130 protrudes from the side of the fixed portion 110 away from the movable portion 120 along the axial direction x. The rotating portion 139 is configured to be able to receive a rotational force so that the knob 130 rotates along the direction of arrow A2 and disengages from the movable portion 120. When the rotating portion 139 is subjected to a rotational force, the stopper 138 rotates along the rotating portion 139. Accordingly, in the fixed structure 100 of the present application, since the rotating portion 139 of the knob 130 protrudes from the side of the fixed portion 110 away from the movable portion 120, when the user operates the fixed structure 100 of the present application, it is less likely to hit other electronic components at the rear due to the narrow space in the chassis.

[0090] Please refer to Figure 6 . Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a fixing structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. For the sake of clarity, Figure 6 The fixed portion 110 in the figure is made transparent and its outline is indicated by a dotted line. In the present embodiment, the movable portion 120 includes a first meshing portion 126 and a rest surface 128. The rest surface 128 is located on a side of the movable portion 120 away from the fixed portion 110. The rest surface 128 is configured to rest against the processing module 200. The knob 130 includes a second meshing portion 136. The first meshing portion 126 and the second meshing portion 136 mesh with each other in the axial direction x, so that the movable portion 120 and the knob 130 are combined without relative sliding in the axial direction x. In some embodiments, the second meshing portion 136 is on the receiving groove 122.

[0091] Please also refer to Figure 4 as well as Figure 6In some embodiments, the protrusion 124 is disposed on the outer side wall of the receiving groove 122. The protrusion 124 may be disposed on each outer side wall of the two receiving grooves 122. In some embodiments, the movable portion 120 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 114 of the fixed portion 110 via the protrusion 124 on the receiving groove 122.

[0092] The operation of the fixing structure 100 will be described in detail below.

[0093] Please also refer to Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 . Figure 7 It is a three-dimensional perspective view of the fixing structure 100 of one embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, the knob 130 is constructed to be able to rotate in the direction of arrow A2 when subjected to a rotational force. When the knob 130 rotates in the direction of arrow A2, the second meshing portion 136 rotates relative to the first meshing portion 126, so that the first meshing portion 126 is separated from the second meshing portion 136. When the knob 130 rotates in the direction of arrow A2, the torsion spring 150 connected to the knob 130 squeezes the surrounding fixed portion 110 to generate elastic deformation. When the knob 130 is separated from the movable portion 120, the elastic member 140 returns to its own elastic force to push against the movable portion 120, so that the movable portion 120 slides away from the fixed portion 110 along the axial direction x.

[0094] Please refer to Figure 8 . Figure 8 1 is a perspective view of a fixing structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. In some embodiments, when the knob 130 stops being subjected to the rotational force, the torsion spring 150 elastically recovers to rotate the knob 130 along the direction of arrow A3 to return to the original position. In other words, the torsion spring 150 elastically recovers to engage the first meshing portion 126 with the second meshing portion 136 in the axial direction x to prevent the movable portion 120 from continuously moving along the axial direction x.

[0095] Please compare Figure 6 as well as Figure 8 The positions of the first meshing portion 126 and the second meshing portion 136 are shown in FIG. Figure 6 Compared with the embodiment of Figure 8 In the embodiment, the first meshing portion 126 and the second meshing portion 136 have different engagement positions in the axial direction x. More precisely, after a rotational force is applied to the knob 130, the knob 130 is separated from the movable portion 120, so that the first meshing portion 126 moves away from the fixed portion 110 and the knob 130 along the axial direction x. Therefore, when the knob 130 returns to its original position due to the elastic force of the torsion spring 150, the second meshing portion 136 is engaged with a portion of the first meshing portion 126 that is farther from the abutting surface 128.

[0096] Through the above-mentioned structural configuration, in a use scenario, when the knob 130 is subjected to a rotational force and rotates relative to the fixed portion 110, the second engagement portion 136 of the knob 130 disengages from the first engagement portion 126 of the movable portion 120, causing the movable portion 120 to move away from the fixed portion 110 along the axial direction x and abut against the processing module 200, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the processing module 200. Then, when the knob 130 is no longer subjected to a rotational force, so that the elastic force of the torsion spring 150 is restored (such as Figure 8 As shown in FIG. 1 ), the movable portion 120 can be prevented from moving again, thereby achieving the purpose of stably fixing the electronic component.

[0097] In some embodiments, the movable portion 120 is away from the fixed portion 110 along the axial direction x. The second engagement portion 136 is rotated approximately along the axial direction y and separated from the first engagement portion 126. The elastic member 140 and the knob 130 are arranged along the axial direction z (for example, at Figure 5 In the embodiment, the knob 130 is located between the two elastic members 140 in the axial direction z. The axial directions x, y and z are perpendicular to each other.

[0098] The following will describe in detail the manner in which the fixing structure 100 of the present application fixes the processing module 200 .

[0099] Please refer to Fig. 9 . Fig. 9 FIG. 1 is a top view of a fixing structure 100 and a processing module 200 according to an embodiment of the present application. Fig. 9 The frame 300 and the top cover 400 are omitted. In this embodiment, the processing module 200 includes a box body 205 and an extension member 210. The movable portion 120 of the fixed structure 100 is opposite to the extension member 210 in the axial direction x. There is a distance D1 between the movable portion 120 and the extension member 210 in the axial direction x. The distance D1 may vary depending on the specifications or dimensions of the processing module 200.

[0100] In some embodiments, since the size of the processing module 200 is relatively large (for example, the extension member 210 is relatively long), the distance D1 may be 0 before the rotating knob 130 moves the movable portion 120 away from the fixed portion 110. In other words, before the fixed structure 100 is actuated, the extension member 210 may abut against the abutting surface 128 of the movable portion 120.

[0101] Please refer to Fig.10 . Fig.10 for Fig. 9A cross-sectional view of the fixing structure 100 and the processing module 200 observed along the cutting line 10-10. In this embodiment, the two elastic members 140 are respectively located in the two accommodating grooves 122. The knob 130 and the torsion spring 150 are located in the accommodating space OP between the two accommodating grooves 122. There is a distance D1 between the movable portion 120 and the extension member 210 in the axial direction x. The first engaging portion 126 includes a plurality of first serrations 1261. The first engaging portion 126 includes a plurality of first grooves 1262 defined by the first serrations 1261. The second engaging portion 136 of the knob 130 also includes a plurality of second serrations 1361, and the second engaging portion 136 includes a plurality of second grooves 1362 defined by the second serrations 1361. The first serrations 1261 are configured to be able to engage with the second grooves 1362. The second serrations 1361 are configured to be able to engage with the first grooves 1262. The first sawtooth 1261 includes a first vertical surface 1261a and a first inclined surface 1261b. The second sawtooth 1361 includes a second vertical surface 1361a and a second inclined surface 1361b.

[0102] In some alternative embodiments, the first sawtooth 1261 may include two vertical surfaces extending in parallel along the axial direction z and a plane connecting the two vertical surfaces. The second sawtooth 1361 may also include two vertical surfaces extending in parallel along the axial direction z and a plane connecting the two vertical surfaces. Accordingly, the first sawtooth 1261 and the second sawtooth 1361 may be engaged more stably.

[0103] In some embodiments, Fig.10 As shown, the first vertical surface 1261a is located on the side of the first sawtooth 1261 close to the fixed portion 110 and faces the fixed portion 110. The first inclined surface 1261b is located on the side of the first sawtooth 1261 away from the fixed portion 110 and faces the movable portion 120. The second vertical surface 1361a is located on the side of the second sawtooth 1361 away from the fixed portion 110 and faces the movable portion 120. The second inclined surface 1361b is located on the side of the second sawtooth 1361 close to the fixed portion 110 and faces the fixed portion 110.

[0104] Please also refer to Fig. 9 , Fig.11 as well as Fig.12 . Fig.11 It is a top view of a fixing structure 100 fixing a processing module 200 according to one embodiment of the present application. Fig.12 for Fig.11A cross-sectional view of the fixed structure 100 and the processing module 200 observed along the cutting line 12-12. In the present embodiment, the knob 130 is separated from the movable part 120 by the applied rotational force, resulting in the distance D1 being shortened because the movable part 120 slides toward the extension part 210. In more detail, after the movable part 120 is separated from the first meshing portion 126 and the second meshing portion 136, the elastic member 140 is elastically released, driving the movable part 120 to move along the axial direction x so that the abutment surface 128 abuts against the extension part 210. When force is applied to the knob 130, the second serration 1361 rotates approximately along the axial direction y relative to the first groove 1262. After the knob 130 rotates to disengage from the movable part 120, the movable part 120 slides relative to the knob 130 along the axial direction x. Accordingly, the effect of fixing the processing module 200 can be achieved by the popping out of the movable part 120. After the movable part 120 slides along the axial direction x, Fig. 9 The distance D1 is shown to be substantially zero.

[0105] Please also refer to Fig.10 as well as Fig.12 In this embodiment, by applying a rotational force to the knob 130 , the first engagement portion 126 moves along the axial direction x by a distance of two first serrations 1261 and one first groove 1262 .

[0106] In some embodiments, the movable portion 120 can move relative to the fixed portion 110 by a distance of approximately 4.5 mm. The distance that the movable portion 120 can move relative to the fixed portion 110 is determined by the elastic coefficient of the elastic member 140 and / or the length of the sliding groove 114. It should be noted that the distance that the movable portion 120 can slide relative to the fixed portion 110 can be adjusted according to the size of different processing modules 200 that may need to be fixed, and the present application is not limited thereto.

[0107] In one embodiment of the present application, the fixed structure of the present application can be set in a server, and the server can be used for artificial intelligence (AI) computing, edge computing, and can also be used as a 5G server, cloud server or Internet of Vehicles server.
