Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic product accessories, and in particular to a nut structure, a connecting mechanism and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] In laptops, the commonly used SSD specifications include 2280 (hereinafter referred to as long card) and 2242 (hereinafter referred to as short card). Due to the different lengths of the long card and the short card, the positions of the locking screws at the end of different SSDs are different.

[0003] In the prior art, fixing nuts are respectively arranged at the screw locking positions corresponding to the long card and the short card, and the connecting nut mechanism for connecting the card plate is connected to the fixing nut at the required position by threaded connection. However, when installing the connecting nut mechanism by threaded connection, the connecting nut mechanism needs to be rotated multiple times (usually more than 360°), and the assembly stroke is long, which affects the assembly efficiency and is not convenient for users to operate quickly. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present application provides a nut structure, a connecting mechanism and an electronic device, which facilitates the replacement of components to be assembled of different sizes and avoids the generation of idle spare parts.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a nut structure, including a base, a nut and an elastic member;

[0047] Embodiment 1

[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment provides a nut structure 1000 that can be used in electronic equipment.

[0049] Specifically, the nut structure 1000 can cooperate with the screw 5000 to lock one end of the component 3000 to be assembled on the substrate 2000 in the electronic device. The substrate 2000 can be a motherboard in the electronic device, and the component 3000 to be assembled can be a solid state drive. In addition, the substrate 2000 can include a top surface 2100 and a bottom surface 2200 facing the back.

[0050] Of course, in other embodiments, the substrate 2000 may also be a circuit board, a carrier board or other structures connected to corresponding electrical components. The components to be assembled 3000 may also be electrical components such as processors and sensors.

[0051] In addition, the electronic device may include but is not limited to a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a PDA, a desktop computer, an e-reader, a car computer, a set-top box, a smart TV, a digital camera, a sweeper, and the like.

[0052] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the nut structure 1000 may include a base 100 , a nut 200 and an elastic member 300 .

[0053] The base 100 may be connected to a preset position 2300 on the substrate 2000. In some embodiments, the base 100 may be mounted on the substrate 2000 by a surface mount technology (SMT) welding process, and the base 100 may be disposed through the substrate 2000.

[0054] In other embodiments, the base 100 may also be fixedly connected to the substrate 2000 by means of threaded connection, clamping, bonding, etc.

[0055] In addition, the base 100 may include a first side 101 and a second side 102 disposed in a reverse direction. The first side 101 may be disposed close to the bottom surface 2200 of the substrate 2000 , and the second side 102 may be disposed close to the top surface 2100 of the substrate 2000 .

[0056] In some embodiments, at least one limiting groove 110 may be provided on the first side 101 of the base 100. At least one first avoidance through hole 120 penetrating the first side 101 and the second side 102 is also provided on the base 100. The number of the first avoidance through holes 120 may be equal to the number of the limiting grooves 110. Along the circumference of the base 100, the first avoidance through holes 120 may be staggered with the limiting grooves 110.

[0057] Combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 The nut 200 can be inserted into the base 100 and can rotate relative to the base 100. In addition, at least one limiting arm 210 can be configured at one end of the nut 200 close to the first side 101. The limiting arm 210 can be adapted to the size of the first avoidance hole 120, that is, the limiting arm 210 can smoothly pass through the first avoidance hole 120. In the embodiment, the nut 200 can include a locked state 201 and an unlocked state 202.

[0058] The elastic member 300 may be connected to the nut 200 . The elastic member 300 may be disposed close to the second side 102 of the base 100 , and the elastic member 300 may abut between the base 100 and the nut 200 .

[0059] When the nut 200 is in the locked state 201, the at least one limiting arm 210 on the nut 200 can be limited in the at least one limiting groove 110 on the base 100 in a one-to-one correspondence, which can prevent the nut 200 from rotating freely relative to the base 100. In addition, the elastic member 300 abuts between the base 100 and the nut 200, and the elastic member 300 can act on the nut 200, which can prevent the nut 200 from moving freely in the axial direction of the nut structure 1000 and causing the limiting arm 210 to arbitrarily disengage from the limiting groove 110, thereby ensuring that the nut 200 is stably in the locked state 201. It can be understood that when the elastic member 300 is not subjected to external force, the elastic member 300 can be in a compressed state or a naturally extended state between the base 100 and the nut 200.

[0060] When the nut 200 is in the unlocked state 202, the at least one limiting arm 210 on the nut 200 can correspond to the at least one first avoidance through hole 120 on the base 100. Therefore, the nut 200 can be pulled out of the base 100 in a direction close to the second side 102, so that the nut 200 is separated from the base 100. It can be understood that when the nut 200 moves in a direction close to the second side 102, the at least one limiting arm 210 can pass through the at least one first avoidance through hole 120 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0061] In the embodiment, when the nut structure 1000 is applied to an electronic device, the substrate 2000 in the electronic device may include a plurality of preset positions 2300, and different preset positions 2300 may be adapted to the installation requirements of different sizes of the components to be assembled 3000. For example, the substrate 2000 may include a first preset position 2310 and a second preset position 2320. In addition, each preset position 2300 may be configured with a base 100.

[0062] When the assembly part 3000 that matches the first preset position 2310 is installed on the base plate 2000, the nut 200 and the elastic member 300 can be connected to the base 100 at the first preset position 2310, and the nut 200 is stably in the locked state 201 under the action of the elastic member 300. In addition, the nut 200 can cooperate with the screw 5000 to lock and fix the corresponding end of the assembly part 3000.

[0063] When it is necessary to replace the to-be-assembled part 3000 on the substrate 2000 with the to-be-assembled part 3000 that matches the second preset position 2320, the nut 200 can be pressed and rotated to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 300, so that the limiting arm 210 gradually disengages from the corresponding limiting groove 110, and accordingly, the nut 200 can be switched from the locked state 201 to the unlocked state 202, and in addition, the limiting arm 210 can gradually be opposite to the corresponding first avoidance through hole 120. Afterwards, the nut 200 is released, and the nut 200 can move toward the direction close to the second side 102 under the action of the elastic member 300, and the user can also pull the nut 200 to completely separate the nut 200 from the base 100. It can be understood that during the process of separating the nut 200 from the base 100, the at least one limiting arm 210 can pass through the at least one first avoidance through hole 120 one by one. In addition, the elastic member 300 also follows the nut 200 and is separated from the base 100 synchronously.

[0064] After the nut 200 and the elastic member 300 are removed from the base 100 at the first preset position 2310, the nut 200 can be aligned with the base 100 at the second preset position 2320, and the nut 200 can be inserted into the base 100, and the elastic member 300 can be located between the second side 102 of the base 100 and the nut 200. Subsequently, the nut 200 can be pressed and rotated, so that the limiting arm 210 gradually rotates from the first avoidance hole 120 to the corresponding limiting groove 110, so that the nut 200 switches from the unlocked state 202 to the locked state 201, and the nut 200 can be stably in the locked state 201 under the action of the elastic member 300. Furthermore, the nut 200 can cooperate with the screw 5000 to lock and fix the corresponding end of the corresponding assembly 3000 to be assembled, so as to realize the replacement of the assembly 3000 of different sizes.

[0065] It can be seen that when the electronic device utilizes the nut structure 1000 provided in the present application, no idle spare parts will be generated when replacing the spare parts 3000 of different sizes to be assembled, thereby avoiding the problem of loss of corresponding spare parts and the subsequent inability to smoothly replace the spare parts 3000 to be assembled.

[0066] In addition, in the nut structure 1000 provided in the present application, the nut 200 is rotatably assembled with the base 100, and can be locked by the cooperation of the limiting arm 210 and the limiting groove 110. When disassembling the nut 200 and the base 100, it is only necessary to rotate the nut 200 by a small angle. It is understandable that the rotation angle of the nut 200 will be less than 360°, thereby realizing the switching of the nut 200 between the locked state 201 and the unlocked state 202, shortening the disassembly and assembly stroke between the nut 200 and the base 100, improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency between the nut 200 and the base 100, facilitating users to quickly disassemble and assemble, and improving the user experience.

[0067] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, further, the base 100 is provided with a first through hole 140 for the nut 200 to pass through. The first through hole 140 can connect the first side 101 and the second side 102, and the first through hole 140 can be a circular hole.

[0068] In some embodiments, two limiting grooves 110 and two first avoidance holes 120 may be provided on the base 100. The two limiting grooves 110 and the two first avoidance holes 120 may be alternately arranged on the peripheral side of the first through hole 140. The two limiting grooves 110 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two first avoidance holes 120 are arranged opposite to each other. The two first avoidance holes 120 may be arranged symmetrically about the line between the two limiting grooves 110. It is understandable that the angle between the limiting groove 110 and the adjacent first avoidance holes 120 may be 90°.

[0069] In other embodiments, the number of the limiting grooves 110 and the number of the first avoidance holes 120 can be set to one, three, or five, etc., and the number of the limiting grooves 110 can be equal to the number of the first avoidance holes 120. In addition, when a plurality of the limiting grooves 110 and the first avoidance holes 120 are provided, the plurality of limiting grooves 110 and the plurality of first avoidance holes 120 can be alternately provided on the peripheral side of the first through hole 140 in sequence, and can be evenly spaced.

[0070] In addition, the first avoidance via hole 120 may be connected to the first through hole 140 .

[0071] In the embodiment, the limiting groove 110 may include a groove bottom 111 and two opposite side walls 112. The two side walls 112 may be arranged obliquely relative to the groove bottom 111. Specifically, the two side walls 112 may gradually approach each other from one end away from the groove bottom 111 to one end close to the groove bottom 111. Thus, when the limiting arm 210 enters and exits the limiting groove 110, the side wall 112 may provide a guiding function for the limiting arm 210, so that the limiting arm 210 can slide into and out of the limiting groove 110 conveniently.

[0072] Combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, a slope 130 may be connected between the limiting groove 110 and the adjacent first avoidance through hole 120. The slope 130 may be gradually inclined toward the second side 102 of the base 100 from one end close to the limiting groove 110 to one end close to the first avoidance through hole 120. When the nut 200 switches between the locked state 201 and the unlocked state 202, the slope 130 may provide a guiding function for the limiting arm 210 of the nut 200, so as to facilitate the switching of the nut 200 between the locked state 201 and the unlocked state 202 and reduce the possibility of the nut 200 returning to its original position at will.

[0073] In addition, a support portion 150 is protrudingly provided on one side of the base 100 close to the second side 102. The support portion 150 may be generally annular and arranged around the circumference of the first through hole 140. In an embodiment, the first avoidance hole 120 may be arranged through the support portion 150. The side of the elastic member 300 close to the base 100 may abut against the support portion 150, and the support portion 150 may provide support for the elastic member 300.

[0074] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the nut 200 may include a connecting column 220, a flange 230 and two limiting arms 210. The connecting column 220 may be cylindrical and fit with the first through hole 140. The two limiting arms 210 may be protrudingly arranged on the circumference of one end of the connecting column 220, and the two limiting arms 210 are located on the same straight line. The flange 230 may be protrudingly arranged on the circumference of the connecting column 220 away from one end of the limiting arm 210. The end of the elastic member 300 away from the base 100 may abut against the side of the flange 230 close to the limiting arm 210. The other side of the flange 230 away from the limiting arm 210 can be used to carry the part 3000 to be assembled. In some embodiments, the flange 230 may be arranged around the circumference of the connecting column 220.

[0075] In other embodiments, the nut 200 may further include one, three, five, or other number of limiting arms 210, and the number of limiting arms 210 may be equal to the number of limiting grooves 110. When the nut 200 includes a plurality of limiting arms 210, the plurality of limiting arms 210 may be evenly spaced and arranged around the connecting column 220, and may correspond one to one to the plurality of limiting grooves 110 on the base 100.

[0076] When the nut 200 is installed on the base 100, the connecting column 220 can be inserted into the first through hole 140 of the base 100, and the connecting column 220 can rotate relative to the first through hole 140. The two limiting arms 210 can be located on the first side 101 of the base 100, and the flange 230 can be located on the second side 102 of the base 100.

[0077] When the nut 200 is in the locked state 201, the two limiting arms 210 can be limited in the two limiting grooves 110 of the base 100 one by one. When the nut 200 is switched from the locked state 201 to the unlocked state 202, the nut 200 is rotated 90° relative to the base 100, and the two limiting arms 210 are made to correspond to the two first avoidance holes 120 one by one, so that the nut 200 can be removed from the base 100. It can be understood that in the process of removing the nut 200, the two limiting arms 210 can pass through the two first avoidance holes 120 one by one, and move from the first side 101 to the second side 102 of the base 100.

[0078] In the embodiment, the connection column 220 may further be provided with a threaded hole 221 for threading the screw 5000. The end of the threaded hole 221 close to the flange 230 may be an open structure, and the end of the threaded hole 221 close to the limiting arm 210 may be a closed structure.

[0079] In some other embodiments, the threaded hole 221 may be a through hole structure, that is, both ends of the threaded hole 221 are open structures.

[0080] In some embodiments, the cross section of the flange 230 perpendicular to the axial direction of the nut structure 1000 may be non-circular. When the nut 200 is disassembled relative to the base 100, an operating tool may be sleeved on the flange 230 to rotate the nut 200. In some embodiments, the cross section of the flange 230 perpendicular to the axial direction of the nut structure 1000 may be a regular hexagon, and the operating tool may be a hexagonal socket wrench.

[0081] In other embodiments, the flange 230 perpendicular to the axial cross section of the nut structure 1000 may also be configured to be a regular pentagon, a square, etc. Correspondingly, the operating tool may be a pentagonal socket wrench or a square socket wrench.

[0082] In some embodiments, a clamping groove 240 extending radially along the nut 200 is further provided at one end of the nut 200 away from the limiting arm 210, and the clamping groove 240 can simultaneously penetrate the connecting column 220 and the flange 230. Therefore, when the nut 200 is disassembled relative to the base 100, an operating tool such as a flat-blade screwdriver can be inserted into the clamping groove 240 to rotate the nut 200, thereby facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the nut 200.

[0083] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the elastic member 300 may be a spring. The elastic member 300 may be sleeved on the connecting column 220 of the nut 200. Accordingly, the elastic member 300 may be provided with a second through hole 310 for the connecting column 220 to pass through, and the second through hole 310 may also be a circular hole.

[0084] In addition, two second avoidance holes 32 are formed on the elastic member 300. The two second avoidance holes 32 are opposite to each other and are both connected to the second through hole 310. In addition, the size of the two second avoidance holes 32 can be adapted to the limit arm 210, so that the limit arm 210 can pass through smoothly.

[0085] In other embodiments, one, three, five or other second avoidance holes 32 may be provided on the elastic member 300. The number of the second avoidance holes 32 may be equal to the number of the limiting arms 210 and correspond one to one.

[0086] In other embodiments, the elastic member 300 may also be a flexible column or a spring, etc., and may be sleeved around the connecting column 220 .

[0087] In the embodiment, when the nut 200 and the elastic member 300 are assembled on the base 100, one end of the elastic member 300 can abut against the support portion 150 of the base 100. The other end of the elastic member 300 can abut against the flange 230 of the nut 200, so that the nut 200 can be stably in the locked state 201.

[0088] Combined with Figure 7 When assembling the nut structure 1000, the base 100 can be fixedly installed at the preset position 2300 of the substrate 2000 by the surface mount welding process. The connecting column 220 of the nut 200 is made to be opposite to the second through hole 310 of the elastic member 300, and the two limiting arms 210 are made to be opposite to the two second avoidance holes 32 one by one, so that the elastic member 300 can be sleeved on the nut 200. Then, the elastic member 300 is rotated relative to the nut 200, so that the limiting arms 210 and the second avoidance holes 32 are misaligned to prevent the elastic member 300 from arbitrarily detaching from the nut 200. Afterwards, the connecting column 220 of the nut 200 can be made to be opposite to the first through hole 140 on the base 100, and the two limiting arms 210 are made to be opposite to the two first avoidance holes 120 one by one, so that the end of the nut 200 close to the limiting arms 210 can smoothly pass through the base 100. Then, the nut 200 can be rotated 90° relative to the base 100, so that the two limiting arms 210 are correspondingly limited in the two limiting grooves 110. The nut 200 can be stably in the locked state 201 under the action of the elastic member 300. Thus, the installation of the nut structure 1000 can be achieved.

[0089] When the nut 200 is removed relative to the base 100, the nut 200 can be pressed and rotated with the aid of an operating tool to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 300, so that the two limiting arms 210 gradually separate from the corresponding limiting grooves 110 and correspond to the two first avoidance holes 120 one by one. Afterwards, the nut 200 can be released, and the nut 200 can move in a direction away from the first side 101 under the action of the elastic member 300. The user can also pull the nut 200 so that one end of the nut 200 provided with the limiting arm 210 passes through the base 100 in a direction away from the first side 101, so that the nut 200 is completely separated from the base 100. It can be understood that when the nut 200 is separated from the base 100, the elastic member 300 can move with the nut 200 and separate from the base 100.

[0090] Embodiment 2

[0091] like Figure 7 As shown, a connection mechanism is provided in the embodiment, which may include a base plate 2000 , a base 100 , a nut 200 and an elastic member 300 .

[0092] In some embodiments, the substrate 2000 may be a motherboard in an electronic device, and the component to be assembled 3000 may be a solid state hard disk. One end of the component to be assembled 3000 may be connected to the connector 4000 on the substrate 2000, and the other end of the component to be assembled 3000 may be locked and fixed by a screw 5000 and a nut structure 1000 to achieve the installation of the component to be assembled 3000. In addition, the substrate 2000 may include a top surface 2100 and a bottom surface 2200.

[0093] In other embodiments, the component to be assembled 3000 may also be an electrical component such as a processor, a sensor, etc. The substrate 2000 may also be a circuit board, a carrier board, etc., to which the corresponding electrical component is connected.

[0094] In an embodiment, the substrate 2000 may include a plurality of preset positions 2300, and the plurality of preset positions 2300 may be respectively adapted to the parts to be assembled 3000 of different sizes. For example, the substrate 2000 may include two preset positions 2300, namely a first preset position 2310 and a second preset position 2320. Accordingly, parts to be assembled 3000 of different sizes may be installed on the substrate 2000 as required. In addition, each preset position 2300 is connected to a base 100. The base 100 may be installed on the substrate 2000 by a surface mount welding process.

[0095] The nut 200 and the elastic member 300 can be connected to the base 100 at a preset position 2300 as needed. For example, when it is necessary to install the assembly part 3000 matching the first preset position 2310 on the substrate 2000, the nut 200 and the elastic member 300 can be connected to the base 100 at the first preset position 2310.

[0096] Combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment, the specific structure of the base 100, the specific structure of the nut 200 and the specific structure of the elastic member 300 may be similar to those in the embodiment one, and the connection method between the nut 200, the elastic member 300 and the corresponding base 100 may also be similar to that in the embodiment one, which will not be repeated here.

[0097] When the user needs to replace the to-be-assembled accessory 3000 matching the first preset position 2310 with the to-be-assembled accessory 3000 matching the second preset position 2320, the user can press and rotate the nut 200 with the operating tool to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 300, so that the limiting arm 210 gradually disengages from the corresponding limiting groove 110, until the limiting arm 210 is opposite to the corresponding first avoidance through hole 120. Accordingly, the nut 200 can be switched from the locked state 201 to the unlocked state 202. Subsequently, the nut 200 can be released, and the nut 200 can move in a direction away from the first side 101 under the action of the elastic member 300, and the limiting arm 210 can gradually move into the first avoidance through hole 120, and the user can pull the nut 200 to completely disengage the nut 200 from the base 100 at the first preset position 2310. It can be understood that the elastic member 300 can be separated from the base 100 together with the nut 200.

[0098] Afterwards, the nut 200 can be aligned with the base 100 at the second preset position 2320, and the nut 200 can be inserted into the base 100, and the elastic member 300 can be located between the second side 102 of the base 100 and the nut 200. Subsequently, the nut 200 can be pressed and rotated, so that the limiting arm 210 gradually rotates from the first avoidance hole 120 to the corresponding limiting groove 110, so that the nut 200 switches from the unlocked state 202 to the locked state 201, and the nut 200 can be stably in the locked state 201 under the action of the elastic member 300. Furthermore, the nut 200 and the screw 5000 can be matched to lock and fix the corresponding end of the corresponding assembly 3000. Specifically, the end of the assembly 3000 away from the connector 4000 can be placed on the flange 230 of the nut 200, and the screw 5000 can be locked on the nut 200, so that the screw 5000 can be matched with the flange 230 of the nut 200 to lock the end of the assembly 3000 away from the connector 4000. In this way, the assembly 3000 of different sizes can be replaced.
