DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0046] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the utility model is further described in detail below in combination with specific implementation methods and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are only exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. In addition, in the following description, the description of well-known structures and technologies is omitted to avoid unnecessary confusion of the concept of the utility model.
[0047] Please read first Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model is a slide rail assembly with a reinforcement structure, the slide rail assembly includes a reinforcement frame 10, the reinforcement frame 10 is composed of a plate body and has a longitudinal wall 11 and a transverse wall 12 at the bottom end of the longitudinal wall 11 and extending in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal wall 11. In this embodiment, the front end of the transverse wall 12 forms an ear piece 121, but this is not limited to this.
[0048] The slide rail assembly also includes a reinforcement block 20, which is formed by a non-plate body and has a fixing portion 21 and a front end of the fixing portion 21. Figure 1 The left edge shown is Figure 1 The stopper 22 extending in the front direction of the fixing portion 21 is fixed to the reinforcement frame 10 by the fixing portion 21 so that the stopper 22 is located above the transverse wall 12. The shape of the reinforcement block 20 is roughly like a lying Arabic numeral 1. In this embodiment, the plate body of the reinforcement frame 10 is a steel plate with elasticity and the reinforcement block 20 is an iron block with hardness, and the mechanical properties of the two are matched with each other, such as bending modulus, tensile elastic modulus, elongation at break, impact strength, bending strength, tensile strength, etc. One end of the stopper 22, i.e., the end away from the fixing portion 21, has a guiding inclined surface 221, and the other end of the stopper 22, i.e., the end close to the fixing portion 21, has a buckle surface 222, and a supporting surface 223 (the supporting surface 223 is the bottom surface of the stopper 22) is formed between the guiding inclined surface 221 and the buckle surface 222, so that the thickness of the reinforcing block 20 is greater than the thickness of the reinforcing frame 10 (it should be noted that the thickness of the reinforcing block 20 refers to the thickness of the reinforcing frame 10). Figure 1 The thickness of the reinforcement frame 10 refers to the distance between the front and rear surfaces of the longitudinal wall 11 and the distance between the upper and lower surfaces of the transverse wall 12), and because the volume of the stop head 22 is greater than the volume of the fixing portion 21 and the length of the stop head 22 is less than the length of the fixing portion 21, the reinforcement block 20 can be easily installed at an appropriate position of the reinforcement frame 10, but is not limited to this.
[0049] As mentioned above, in this embodiment, the slide rail assembly further includes an outer frame 31, and the front portion of the outer frame 31 is Figure 1The left end of the outer frame shown is provided with four first holes 311 arranged in an array or a quadrilateral shape, and correspondingly, the corresponding positions of the reinforcement frame 10 are provided with four second holes 101 corresponding to each other, and a coupling member such as a pin or a screw is passed through the first hole 311 to the second hole 101 one by one (the coupling member is not shown in the figure), so that the outer frame 31 can be combined with the reinforcement frame 10, but it is not limited to this.
[0050] In the present embodiment, the slide rail assembly further comprises a fixing member 60 such as a conventional cross, slotted or plum screw. The longitudinal wall 11 is specifically as follows: Figure 1 Two side-by-side positioning holes 112 are provided on the side of the positioning opening 111 shown, and correspondingly, a fixing hole 201 is provided at a corresponding position on the fixing portion 21, so that the tail of the fixing member 60 is passed through the positioning hole 112 and fixed to the fixing hole 201, and the front part of the fixing member 60 is fixed in the positioning hole 112, but not limited to this.
[0051] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, there is a buffer distance H between the transverse wall 12 and the stopper 22, that is, the bottom surface of the stopper 22, i.e., the abutting surface 223, and the upper end surface of the transverse wall 12 are not in contact or abutment with each other, but there is a gap, and the gap is the buffer distance H mentioned above. More specifically, as Figure 5 As shown, when the transverse wall 12 is subjected to the impact stress F1, the transverse wall 12 moves toward the buffer distance H, and the abutment surface 223 withstands the impact stress F1 exerted on the transverse wall 12 to prevent the transverse wall 12 from warping. In this embodiment, the buffer distance H is 0.1 mm~1 mm or 0.1 mm~0.5 mm, but is not limited thereto.
[0052] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the slide rail assembly of this embodiment further includes a slide rail 30, which includes an outer frame 31, a middle frame 32 relative to the outer frame 31, and an inner frame 33 relative to the middle frame 32. That is, the outer frame 31, the middle frame 32, and the inner frame 33 are slidably matched together from the outside to the inside, and the outer frame 31 faces the reinforcement frame 10, so that the front part of the outer frame 31 can be combined with the reinforcement frame 10. Figure 7 As shown, when the middle frame 32 is pulled out of the outer frame 31, the sagging stress F2 of the middle frame 32 and the inner frame 33 is concentrated on the front of the outer frame 31, and the reinforcement frame 10 and the reinforcement block 20 are used to reinforce the strength of the front of the outer frame 31, so that the outer frame 31 effectively supports the middle frame 32 and the inner frame 33. On the whole, the reinforcement frame 10 and the reinforcement block 20 support the slide rail 30 with a supporting force F3 to ensure force balance, but not limited to this.
[0053] like Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 As shown, the slide rail assembly also includes a frame. Specifically, the outer frame 31 of the slide rail 30 is installed on the side of the frame 40. The side of the load 50 can be combined with the inner frame 33 of the slide rail 30. Fig.11 As shown, when the middle frame 32 of the slide rail 30 is pulled out of the outer frame 31 of the slide rail 30, the sagging stress F2 of the middle frame 32 of the slide rail 30, the inner frame 33 of the slide rail 30 and the load 50 is concentrated on the front part of the outer frame 31 of the slide rail 30, and the reinforcement frame 10 and the reinforcement block 20 are used to reinforce the front part of the outer frame 31 of the slide rail 30, so that the reinforcement frame 10 and the reinforcement block 20 support the slide rail 30 with a supporting force F3, or when the middle frame 32 of the slide rail 30 is retracted into the outer frame 31 of the slide rail 30, the side of the load 50 is provided with a buckle body 51 and can be buckled to the stopper 22 of the reinforcement block 20, which can also prevent the slide rail 30 and the load 50 from sliding out. In the present embodiment, the carrier 50 may be a server chassis or a drawer, and in combination with the rack 40, may be a frame or a cabinet, and may also be used in servers or furniture. For example, the height of the server chassis is measured in units of U (1U=1.75 inches=44.45 mm). If the height is 4U, it is as high as 177.8 mm. In addition, the electronic components in the server chassis make the overall weight quite heavy. However, by cooperating with the reinforcement frame 10 and the reinforcement block 20, a double reinforcement effect is achieved, which also helps to improve the overall strength of the slide rail 30, so that the slide rail 30 can effectively carry server chassis of more than 4U and effectively hold server chassis of more than 4U, but it is not limited to this. In addition, another slide rail (the other slide rail is not shown) is also provided on the other side of the carrier 50, which has the same structure and function as the slide rail 30, and will not be repeated here.
[0054] It should be understood that the above specific embodiments of the present invention are only used to illustrate or explain the principles of the present invention, and do not constitute a limitation on the present invention. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. In addition, the claims attached to the present invention are intended to cover all changes and modifications that fall within the scope and boundaries of the attached claims, or the equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
