Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of computer equipment, and in particular to a rugged and expandable portable computer platform. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of computer technology, with the continuous advancement of science and technology, the application scenarios of portable computers are becoming increasingly widespread. Due to their portability, portable computers play an important role in many fields such as fieldwork, military operations, and mobile offices, greatly improving work efficiency and the timeliness of information processing. They enable people to work and access information anytime, anywhere, breaking the limitations of traditional computer usage scenarios and promoting the informatization development of various industries.

[0003] In traditional portable computer designs, common technical means are usually used to achieve basic functions. For the display, the screen is usually fixed on the top surface of the computer, lacking flexible storage and protection methods. In terms of expansion functions, the slots for storage media are often open, making them susceptible to dust, moisture, and other contaminants, affecting the normal use of the storage media. Signal and power cable interfaces are also mostly exposed without effective protection. Furthermore, the protective structure of traditional portable computers is relatively simple and cannot well adapt to complex and harsh environments.

[0004] However, these existing conventional methods have obvious drawbacks; the fixed installation of the display screen makes it susceptible to damage from impacts when not in use, and it cannot flexibly adjust the display angle or store it as needed. The open expansion slots and interfaces are prone to dust and moisture entering, affecting the performance and lifespan of electronic components, reducing the reliability and stability of the computer, and failing to meet the needs of some usage scenarios with high environmental requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this application provides a rugged and expandable portable computer platform that is rugged, has multiple expansion functions, and performs well in terms of ease of use and protection.

[0006] This application is achieved through the following technical solution: A rugged and expandable portable computer platform includes a housing, within which a cavity is provided to accommodate electronic components; The upper panel of the housing is divided into a display area and an extension area; An interactive display panel is hinged within the display area, and a display panel receiving groove for accommodating the interactive display panel is formed within the display area. The expansion area is provided with an expansion slot for inserting storage media, and a sealing cover for sealing the expansion slot is hinged to the side of the expansion slot. The side wall of the housing is provided with an interface slot for inserting signal lines or power lines, and a flip cover for sealing the interface slot is hinged to the side of the interface slot. The upper panel is also hinged to a cover on its side. The cover has a protective groove on the side facing the upper panel. When the cover is closed, the protective groove can cover the display area and the expansion area.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution and utilizing the structural design of the main casing, a stable space can be provided for electronic components to ensure their normal operation. The upper panel is divided into a display area and an expansion area, realizing functional zoning and improving ease of use and operational comfort. The display area has a hinged interactive display panel with a display panel receiving slot, which facilitates interactive operation and can be stored and protected when not in use. The expansion slot in the expansion area can be used to connect storage media to meet diverse data storage needs, while the hinged sealing cover can effectively prevent dust, liquids, or debris from entering the expansion slot and damaging the storage media. The interface slots on the side wall of the casing facilitate the connection of signal cables or power cables, and the hinged flip cover can prevent external substances from damaging the interfaces when they are not in use. The hinged cover and its protective slot on the side of the upper panel can fully cover the display area and expansion area when closed, providing good protection for internal components and enhancing the protection and stability of the entire rugged and multi-expandable portable computer platform.

[0008] Optionally, the side of the housing is provided with an installation compartment for installing a computer hard drive, and the side of the installation compartment is hinged with a door for sealing the installation compartment.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, an installation bay for installing computer hard drives is provided on the side of the casing, which facilitates the installation and removal of computer hard drives and makes it easier to maintain and replace them later. At the same time, a door is hinged to the side of the installation bay to seal it. The door can effectively prevent dust, moisture and other contaminants from entering the installation bay, protecting the hard drive from damage caused by external environmental factors, thereby extending the hard drive's lifespan and ensuring the stable operation of the computer platform.

[0010] Optionally, a sealing plate is provided on the surface of the sealing cover that mates with the expansion groove, and a cavity is formed between the sealing plate and the sealing cover; a locking mechanism is provided in the cavity, the locking mechanism includes a main buckle slidably connected to both ends of the sealing cover, the main buckle is provided with a claw, and the upper plate of the housing is provided with a slot adapted to the claw; the sealing cover is provided with a first return spring that can drive the claw to engage in the slot, and the sealing cover is provided with a guide groove that guides the movement of the main buckle; a sealing boss is formed on the edge of the groove of the expansion groove, and a sealing groove adapted to the sealing boss is provided on the sealing plate.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, a sealing plate is set on the mating surface of the sealing cover and the expansion slot to form a cavity. The locking mechanism in the cavity can achieve a reliable connection. The main buckle is slidably connected to both ends of the sealing cover, and its claws are adapted to the slots on the upper panel of the housing. Under the action of the first return spring, it can be firmly locked to prevent the sealing cover from opening accidentally. The guide groove guides the movement of the main buckle to ensure a smooth locking process. At the same time, the sealing boss at the edge of the expansion slot is adapted to the sealing groove on the sealing plate to further enhance the sealing effect. This design can not only effectively prevent dust, moisture and other substances from entering the expansion slot and damaging the storage medium, but also improve the stability and reliability of the entire computer platform, extend the service life of the equipment, improve the user experience, and meet the actual application needs of a rugged and multi-expandable portable computer platform.

[0012] Optionally, the sealing cover is provided with an auxiliary buckle in the middle, and a follower link is provided between the main buckles; the follower link abuts against the auxiliary buckle and is used to drive the auxiliary buckle to move with the main buckle.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, setting auxiliary buckles and follow-up linkages, the auxiliary buckles can move with the main buckles, which can enhance the sealing effect of the sealing cover on the expansion slot and further improve the protection performance of the computer platform.

[0014] Optionally, the side wall of the housing is provided with a grip handle; the grip handle includes two fixed seats symmetrically fixed on both sides of the housing, and a grip portion connected between the two fixed seats; each fixed seat is hinged with a pull rod, and the free ends of the two pull rods are connected by a pre-tension spring; both ends of the grip portion are respectively provided with telescopic grooves, and the pull rod is provided with a fixing pin, which slides in the corresponding telescopic groove.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, a grip handle is provided on the side wall of the housing, making it convenient for operators to carry and move the portable computer platform. The grip handle's fixing base is symmetrically fixed on both sides of the housing, ensuring the stability and balance of the grip. The pull rod is hinged to the fixing base, and the free ends of the two pull rods are connected by a pre-tension spring, so that when the grip is subjected to external force, the pull rod can rotate flexibly and the pre-tension spring provides a certain degree of cushioning and elasticity, reducing the impact force on the housing and protecting the internal electronic components. At the same time, the telescopic grooves at both ends of the grip slide with the fixing pins on the pull rod, allowing the grip to be adjusted to a certain extent according to actual usage needs, so as to adapt to the gripping habits and usage scenarios of different operators, improving the convenience and comfort of using the portable computer platform.

[0016] Optionally, a support member is hinged to the back of the interactive display panel, and the end of the support member away from the interactive display panel is slidably connected to a guide groove provided on the top panel.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the support component hinged to the back of the interactive display panel cooperates with the guide groove on the upper panel, enabling the interactive display panel to obtain stable support during use; the support component can slide within the guide groove, which increases the flexibility of the interactive display panel angle adjustment; users can adjust the interactive display panel to a suitable angle according to actual needs to obtain the best visual effect and operating experience, meeting the diverse needs for the use angle of the interactive display panel in different scenarios.

[0018] Optionally, the end of the support member away from the interactive display panel is provided with a damping wheel for applying damping force to the guide groove, and the guide groove is provided with a limiting protrusion that limits the position of the damping wheel.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, a damping wheel is set at the end of the support component away from the interactive display panel, which can apply damping force to the guide groove. This allows the interactive display panel to obtain stable and controllable rotational resistance when rotating to adjust the angle, avoiding excessive rotation or over-adjustment of the angle, and allowing users to adjust the interactive display panel to the appropriate angle more accurately. At the same time, the limiting protrusion set in the guide groove can effectively limit the position of the damping wheel, prevent the support component from sliding excessively, ensure that the interactive display panel is adjusted within a reasonable angle range, improve the stability and reliability of the interactive display panel, and bring a better user experience.

[0020] Optionally, a second elastic reset member is provided between the guide groove and the support member. The second elastic reset member can generate a pre-tightening force when the interactive display panel is in the receiving groove. A locking mechanism is provided between the interactive display panel and the receiving groove. The locking mechanism can perform a locking action on the interactive display panel when it is in the receiving groove, so as to restrict the interactive display panel in the receiving groove. A flip-top unlocking mechanism is provided between the receiving groove and the cover. The flip-top unlocking mechanism can only release the locking action of the locking mechanism on the interactive display panel when the cover is rotated to a set angle away from the interactive display panel, so that the second elastic reset member can release the pre-tightening force to push the interactive display panel out of the receiving groove.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when the interactive display panel is in the receiving slot, the second elastic reset member generates a pre-tightening force, which provides a power reserve for the interactive display panel to pop out. The locking mechanism ensures that the interactive display panel is stably restrained when in the receiving slot, preventing it from accidentally popping out when not needed, thus improving the stability and reliability of the device. The unique design of the flip-cover unlocking mechanism ensures that the locking mechanism will only release the interactive display panel when the cover is rotated to a set angle away from the interactive display panel. This design increases the safety and controllability of operation, preventing accidental pop-out of the interactive display panel. When the lock is released, the second elastic reset member releases the pre-tightening force, which can quickly push the interactive display panel out of the receiving slot for user convenience. This overall design ensures the stability of the interactive display panel in the stored state and allows it to be popped out quickly and safely when needed, improving the user experience and enhancing the practicality and functionality of the device.

[0022] Optionally, the flip-cover unlocking mechanism includes a hinge seat fixed to the top plate, a hinge shaft on the hinge seat, a trigger sleeve rotatably connected to the hinge shaft, a return torsion spring between the trigger sleeve and the hinge seat, and a pin and a limiting arc groove on the end of the trigger sleeve; a limiting pin on the hinge seat, the limiting pin being slidably connected in the limiting arc groove to limit the rotation range of the trigger sleeve on the hinge shaft; the cover is rotatably connected to the hinge shaft via a hinge block; the hinge block is provided with a floating groove, and an abutment block is slidably connected in the floating groove; the abutment block can abut against the pin under the action of the third elastic reset member, and drive the pin to rotate within a predetermined rotation range when the cover rotates; the locking mechanism can release the locking action of the display interaction panel during the rotation of the trigger sleeve following the cover.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the flip-cover unlocking mechanism links the rotation of the cover with the unlocking action of the display panel. During carrying, the cover is closed, and the display panel is locked in the receiving slot to prevent it from shaking and being damaged. When the display panel needs to be used, the cover is opened, and the cover rotates via the hinge block. The abutment block, under the action of the third elastic reset element, abuts against the pin. As the cover rotates, it drives the pin to rotate, which in turn causes the trigger sleeve to rotate on the hinge shaft. Because the limiting pin slides in the limiting arc groove, the rotation range of the trigger sleeve is limited, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the action. The reset torsion spring ensures that the trigger sleeve returns to its initial position immediately after the unlocking action is completed. During the rotation of the trigger sleeve following the cover, the locking mechanism can reliably release the locking action of the display panel. At this time, the second elastic reset member releases the pre-tightening force and pushes the interactive display panel out of the receiving slot, making it convenient for users to operate. This design makes the opening process of the display panel more automated and convenient, improving the user experience. At the same time, it can protect the display panel well when not in use, extend its service life, and enhance the practicality and reliability of the entire rugged and expandable portable computer platform.

[0024] Optionally, the outer wall of the trigger sleeve is provided with a permanent magnet arranged axially; the magnetic poles of the permanent magnet are arranged radially along the trigger sleeve; the locking mechanism includes a magnetic conductor embedded in the top plate, and the top plate is provided with a locking groove communicating with the receiving groove, and a locking block is slidably connected to the locking groove; the locking block can engage with the display interaction panel under the action of the fourth elastic reset member, so as to limit the display interaction panel in the receiving groove; during the rotation of the trigger sleeve following the cover plate, the magnetic poles of the permanent magnet can rotate to be in the same straight line as the magnetic conductor, so that the magnetic conductor generates a magnetic attraction force on the locking block, thereby overcoming the elastic force of the fourth elastic reset member, and thus driving the locking block to disengage from the engagement relationship with the display interaction panel.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, a permanent magnet is arranged axially and radially on the outer wall of the trigger sleeve, in conjunction with a locking mechanism including a magnetic conductor, locking groove, and locking block, resulting in significant technical improvements. Unlike traditional mechanical transmission designs, which often require drilling holes in the housing and adding sealing rings to achieve specific functions, this not only increases structural complexity but may also lead to reduced sealing performance due to drilling, affecting the platform's three-proof characteristics. This technical solution utilizes the principle of magnetic coupling, employing a non-contact force transmission method. When the trigger sleeve rotates with the cover plate, the magnetic poles of the permanent magnet rotate... When aligned with the magnetic conductor, the magnetic conductor generates a magnetic attraction force on the locking block, overcoming the elastic force of the fourth elastic reset component and causing the locking block to disengage from the display interface board. This non-contact design avoids drilling holes in the housing, reducing the risk of external dust, water, and moisture entering the housing, ensuring the platform's sealing and protective performance, effectively improving the platform's dustproof, waterproof, and moisture-proof capabilities, fully guaranteeing the platform's three-proof characteristics, while also simplifying the structure, reducing maintenance costs, and improving the platform's reliability and stability, providing a more solid guarantee for the use of portable computer platforms.

[0026] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: The interactive display panel of this application can be stored in the display panel receiving slot. When the cover is closed, the protective slot covers the display area and the extension area to prevent the display screen from being damaged by impact when not in use. The expansion slot and interface slot of this application are respectively equipped with a sealing cover and a flip cover, which can prevent dust and moisture from entering, improve the performance and service life of electronic components, and enhance the reliability and stability of the computer; The expansion slots and interface slots in this application have a sealed structure, providing a more complete protective structure and enabling them to adapt to complex and harsh environments.

The flip-top unlocking mechanism 13 can only release the locking action of the locking mechanism 12 on the interactive display panel 2 when the cover 6 is rotated to a set angle away from the interactive display panel 2, so that the second elastic reset member 92 can release the pre-tightening force to push the interactive display panel 2 out of the receiving groove 111.

[0045] Reference Figures 9 to 11The flip-top unlocking mechanism 13 includes a hinge seat 131 fixed on the top plate 11, a hinge shaft 132 on the hinge seat 131, a trigger sleeve 133 rotatably connected to the hinge shaft 132, a return torsion spring 134 between the trigger sleeve 133 and the hinge seat 131, and a pin 1331 and a limiting arc groove 1332 on the end of the trigger sleeve 133; a limiting pin 1311 of the hinge seat 131 is slidably connected in the limiting arc groove 1332 to limit the range of the trigger sleeve 133's rotation angle on the hinge shaft 132; the cover 6 rotates via the hinge block 62. It is connected to the hinge shaft 132; the hinge block 62 is provided with a floating groove 63, and an abutment block 64 is slidably connected in the floating groove 63; the abutment block 64 can abut against the pin 1331 under the action of the third elastic reset member 65, and drive the pin 1331 to rotate within a predetermined angle range when the cover 6 rotates; the trigger sleeve 133 can release the locking action of the locking mechanism 12 on the display interactive panel during the rotation of the cover 6; a permanent magnet 135 is provided on the outer wall of the trigger sleeve 133 along the axial direction; the magnetic poles of the permanent magnet 135 are arranged radially along the trigger sleeve 133.

[0046] Reference Figures 9 to 11 The locking mechanism 12 includes a magnetic conductor 121 embedded in the top plate 11, and the top plate 11 is provided with a locking groove 122 communicating with the receiving groove 111. The locking groove 122 is slidably connected to a locking block 123, and the end of the locking block 123 near the magnetic conductor 121 is provided with an exciter. The locking block 123 can be engaged with the display interactive panel under the action of the fourth elastic reset member 124, so as to limit the display interactive panel in the receiving groove 111.

[0047] refer to Figures 12 to 14 During the rotation of the trigger sleeve 133 along with the cover plate, the magnetic poles of the permanent magnet 135 can rotate to be aligned with the magnetic conductor 121, causing the magnetic conductor 121 to generate a magnetic attraction force on the locking block 123, thereby overcoming the elastic force of the fourth elastic reset member 124 and driving the locking block 123 to disengage from the display interaction panel. While the cover 6 continues to open in the unlocked state of the trigger sleeve 133, the limiting arc groove 1332 restricts the rotation of the trigger sleeve 133, causing the pin 1331 to provide radial thrust to the abutment block 64, thereby driving the abutment block 64 to move in the floating groove 63 and finally bypass the pin 1331. After that, the trigger sleeve 133 is reset under the action of the reset torsion spring 134, completing one opening and unlocking cycle.

[0048] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: When the interactive display panel 2 is in the receiving groove 111, the second elastic reset member 92 generates a pre-tightening force, which provides a power reserve for the pop-out of the interactive display panel 2; the setting of the locking mechanism 12 can ensure that the interactive display panel 2 is stably restricted when it is in the receiving groove 111, preventing it from popping out accidentally when not needed, thus improving the stability and reliability of the device; the unique design of the flip-cover unlocking mechanism 13 means that the locking action of the locking mechanism 12 on the interactive display panel 2 will only be released when the cover 6 is rotated to a set angle away from the interactive display panel 2; this design increases the safety and controllability of operation, preventing accidental pop-out of the interactive display panel 2; when the lock is released, the second elastic reset member 92 releases the pre-tightening force, which can quickly push the interactive display panel 2 out of the receiving groove 111 for user convenience. This overall design ensures the stability of the interactive display panel 2 in its retracted state while allowing it to be quickly and safely ejected when needed, enhancing the user experience and improving the device's practicality and functionality. A permanent magnet 135, arranged axially with radially arranged magnetic poles, is placed on the outer wall of the trigger sleeve 133. This, combined with the locking mechanism 12 including a magnetic conductor 121, a locking groove 122, and a locking block 123, results in significant technical improvements. Unlike traditional mechanical transmission designs, which often require drilling holes in the housing 1 and adding sealing rings to achieve specific functions, this design not only increases structural complexity but may also reduce sealing performance due to drilling, affecting the platform's three-proof characteristics. This technical solution utilizes the principle of magnetic coupling, employing a non-magnetic coupling method... The contact-type force transmission method: when the trigger sleeve 133 rotates with the cover plate, the magnetic pole of the permanent magnet 135 rotates to be in the same straight line as the magnetic conductor 121. The magnetic conductor 121 generates a magnetic attraction force on the locking block 123, overcoming the elastic force of the fourth elastic reset member 124, so that the locking block 123 disengages from the display interaction board. This non-contact design avoids drilling holes in the housing 1, reducing the risk of external dust, water, moisture and other substances entering the housing 1, ensuring the sealing and protection performance of the platform, effectively improving the platform's dustproof, waterproof and moisture-proof capabilities, fully ensuring the platform's three-proof characteristics, while also simplifying the structure, reducing maintenance costs, improving the platform's reliability and stability, and providing a more solid guarantee for the use of portable computer platforms.
