Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of computer protection, in particular to a computer protection device. Background Art

[0002] Graphics card is one of the most basic accessories of computer configuration, mainly divided into integrated graphics card, independent graphics card and core graphics card. As an important component of computer host, graphics card is a device for converting digital to analog signals in computer, and is responsible for outputting display graphics. The connection method and steps of graphics card are usually to place the chassis horizontally, plug the graphics card vertically into the graphics card slot of the motherboard, and use the power supply line to supply power. At the same time, a metal mounting plate is set on the outer casing of the graphics card near the rear side of the chassis. The mounting plate has screws connected to the chassis to support the graphics card.

[0003] As graphics cards are updated and replaced, the performance of existing graphics cards is getting stronger and stronger, but the size of the heat sink will also increase. The current graphics card heat sink copper tube is thicker, which makes the overall size of the graphics card larger. Therefore, after the graphics card is installed, the mounting plate near the rear of the chassis is fixed with screws, so that there will not be too much position deviation after installation. Figure 2 As shown, however, the corners near the front side of the chassis and the side panels of the chassis will sink due to gravity. The existing support and fixing method is generally to install the graphics card and then stand the chassis upright to use the graphics card bracket to support the sunken corner of the graphics card, which can reduce the damage rate of the graphics card. The existing graphics card bracket is usually set at a corner away from the mounting plate and the graphics card slot. The structure of the graphics card bracket is mostly a vertical rod and a support rod for supporting the graphics card, and the upper part of the support rod is used to support the lower part of the graphics card corner.

[0004] Most of the existing graphics card brackets can only support the graphics card when the chassis is in an upright state. When the chassis is moved from a flat position to an upright position, the corners of the graphics card away from the mounting plate and the graphics card slot may be subjected to gravity and generate downward inertia due to the lack of support and fixation, which may damage or even bend the gold fingers of the graphics card. At the same time, the gold fingers of the graphics card are subjected to vibration during the upright transportation process, which may cause wear and damage to the gold fingers, thereby affecting the performance of the graphics card, resulting in damage to the graphics card performance, and in severe cases affecting the use of the computer.

[0026] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The utility model provides a computer protection device, including: a base 1, a rod 2, a clamping assembly 3, and an adjusting member 4. The base 1 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the chassis 7, the rod 2 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the axial direction of the rod 2 is always parallel to the thickness extension direction of the vertically installed graphics card 8, the clamping assembly 3 is slidably connected to the rod 2, the clamping assembly 3 is used to fix and clamp the graphics card 8 so that the vertically installed graphics card 8 is always perpendicular to the motherboard, and the adjusting member 4 is arranged on the rod 2 to fix the position of the clamping assembly 3 on the rod 2.

[0027] In the above embodiment, when the chassis 7 is laid flat from the upright state, the axial direction of the rod 2 will also change from vertical to horizontal. At this time, the graphics card 8 is first installed vertically. After the vertical installation, the clamping assembly 3 provided in the device can clamp and fix the thickness of the graphics card 8 at the sinking position along the edge. At this time, the graphics card 8 is ensured to be in a vertical state with the horizontal plane. Then, by adjusting the length of the rod 2, the base 1 and the corresponding inner bottom wall of the chassis 7 are attached and fixedly connected. Finally, the position of the clamping assembly 3 on the rod 2 is fixed by the adjusting member 4. , thereby completing the position fixation of the graphics card 8. When the graphics card 8 is installed vertically and the reinforcement protection process is completed, when the chassis 7 is moved from the horizontal state to the vertical state, the graphics card 8 will not have a large position displacement due to gravity and inertia. At the same time, relying on the close-fitting fixed clamping of the clamping assembly 3, the vibration of the moving process can be greatly reduced. In summary, the present device can fix the graphics card 8 during the vertical installation process of the graphics card 8 when the chassis 7 is laid horizontally, and can protect the graphics card 8 from displacement and shock when the chassis 7 is carried upright.

[0028] Further, refer to Figure 4 The base 1 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the chassis 7 by a plurality of bolts 6 .

[0029] In the above embodiment, the bolts 6 are connected to the inner bottom wall of the chassis 7, so that the fixation can be more stable.

[0030] Further, refer to Figure 3 Although the bolts 6 have good fixing performance, considering the complicated disassembly and the need to open reserved holes on the chassis 7, it is very troublesome. Therefore, an adsorption member 5 is provided at the bottom of the base 1 for adsorption and fixing with the inner bottom wall of the chassis 7.

[0031] In the above embodiments, the adsorption member 5 is used to replace the bolt 6 for installation, which can not only achieve the position fixation with the inner bottom wall of the chassis 7, but also achieve the effect of quick installation and disassembly. The specific adsorption member 5 can be a suction cup. Considering that the inner bottom wall of the chassis 7 is usually made of metal, the adsorption member 5 can also be a magnet.

[0032] In the above embodiment, the suction cup is a traditional and common base 1 suction cup with an adsorption switch and a manual deflation valve. The size of the magnet is the same as that of the base 1, ensuring that the adsorption force is sufficient to provide mobile support for the graphics card 8.

[0033] Further, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The clamping assembly 3 includes: a bracket 31, a double-headed screw 33, and two clamping plates 34. The side of the bracket 31 close to the rod 2 is slidably sleeved with the rod 2 through a fixed flange 32. The double-headed screw 33 is rotatably connected to the bracket 31. The two sections of the thread of the double-headed screw 33 rotate in opposite directions. The axial direction of the double-headed screw 33 is parallel to the axial direction of the rod 2. The two clamping plates 34 are respectively sleeved on the two sections of the thread of the double-headed screw 33, and the clamping plates 34 are threadedly connected to the double-headed screw 33.

[0034] In the above embodiments, a double-headed screw 33 is set, and the two sections of the thread have opposite rotation directions, wherein the two clamping plates 34 are symmetrically set on the two thread sections of the double-headed screw 33, which can ensure that the two clamping plates 34 move the same distance, thereby avoiding affecting the position accuracy of the graphics card 8 under a single adjustment. After controlling the two clamping plates 34 to face the direction of the graphics card 8, when the double-headed screw 33 is rotated, the two clamping plates 34 can be driven to move in a direction close to each other, thereby achieving the clamping of the corners of the sunken part of the graphics card 8.

[0035] Further, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The bracket 31 is rotatably connected to the bare rod without threads in the middle of the double-headed screw 33. The bracket 31 is also connected to a limit member 35 for limiting the two clamping plates 34. The limit member 35 includes a baffle 351. The length extension direction of the baffle 351 is parallel to the axial direction of the double-headed screw 33. The baffle 351 is fixedly connected to the bracket 31. A slide groove 3511 is opened on the side of the baffle 351 close to the clamping plate 34 along the axial direction of the double-headed screw 33. The end of the baffle 351 is placed in the slide groove 3511. The baffle 351 and the slide groove 3511 are used to limit the rotation of the baffle 351.

[0036] In the above embodiment, the limiting member 35 is used to limit the orientation of the two clamping plates 34 so that the two clamping plates 34 will not rotate when the double-headed screw 33 is rotated.

[0037] Further, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The rod 2 is provided with an external thread, and the adjusting member 4 includes a plurality of nuts 41 . The nuts 41 are sleeved on the rod 2 and threadedly connected with the rod 2 . The nuts 41 are used to rotate on the rod 2 to limit the flange 32 .

[0038] In the above embodiments, the position of the bracket 31 can be controlled by screwing the height of the nut 41. Specifically, the nut 41 can be respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the flange 32 of the bracket 31, so as to achieve the upper and lower limit effect of the flange 32, thereby preventing the bracket 31 from falling off upward.

[0039] Further, refer to Figure 3 Considering that the clamping plate 34 is in rigid contact with the graphics card 8 , a soft pad 341 is fixedly connected to the sides of the two clamping plates 34 that are close to each other.

[0040] In the above embodiments, the contact between the clamping plate 34 and the graphics card 8 is soft clamping to avoid damaging the contact surface of the graphics card 8 during the clamping process. At the same time, the softness of the soft material is used to achieve a certain vibration isolation effect, thereby reducing the vibration intensity during transportation.

[0041] The above disclosures are only several specific embodiments of the present invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
