In addition, spatial relationship terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "back", etc. are used to facilitate the description to explain the positional relationship between two components. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and are not to be construed as limitations on the present application.
[0029] Embodiment 1
[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present application provides a plug-in locking device for a solid state drive, comprising: two baffle plates 110, two slide slot plates 120, two elastic components 130, two spherical components 140, and two embedded components 210. The two baffle plates 110, the two slide slot plates 120, the two elastic components 130, and the two spherical components 140 are used to be installed in the solid state drive body 100, and the two embedded components 210 are used to be installed in the solid state drive cover 200, and the solid state drive cover 200 is used to prevent dust, or provide functions such as authentication and unlocking of the solid state drive body 100.
[0031] A connector plug interface is provided on the end surface of the connection end of the solid state drive body 100, and a connector female head 160 is installed in the solid state drive body 100, and the connector female head 160 corresponds to the connector plug interface; two baffle plates 110 are respectively located on the outside of the connector female head 160, and the two baffle plates 110 also correspond to the connector plug interface, and their extension direction is the same as the extension direction of the connector plug interface. Optionally, the two baffle plates 110 are arranged in parallel. Also optionally, the two baffle plates 110 extend in a direction away from each other at one end away from the connector plug interface.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the solid-state hard disk body 100 is generally rectangular. The X-axis direction is the length direction of the solid-state hard disk body 100. The Y-axis direction is the width direction of the solid-state hard disk body 100. The X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction define the direction of the plane where the solid-state hard disk body 100 is located. The Z-axis direction is a direction perpendicular to the plane where the solid-state hard disk body 100 is located. The X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction are perpendicular to each other. The end face of the connecting end of the solid-state hard disk body 100 is perpendicular to the plane where the solid-state hard disk body 100 is located, that is, the extension direction of the end face of the connecting end of the solid-state hard disk body 100 is the same as the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction. A connector plug interface is provided on the end face of the connecting end of the solid-state hard disk body 100, and the extension direction of the connector plug interface is the same as the X-axis direction, and the extension direction of the baffle plate 110 is the same as the X-axis direction.
[0033] The first slide plate 120 is located on the outside of the first baffle plate 110, and the second slide plate 120 is located on the outside of the second baffle plate 110. The "outside" mentioned here refers to the side of one baffle plate 110 away from the other baffle plate 110. In addition, there is a plug-in gap 150 between the inner end surface of each of the two slide plates 120 and the outer side surface of the corresponding baffle plate 110, and the plug-in gap 150 also corresponds to the connector plug-in interface, so as to be used to insert the insert 210 from the connector plug-in interface. In addition, a slide groove 121 is also provided on the slide plate 120, and the extension direction of the slide groove 121 is the same as the Y-axis direction, and the opening of the slide groove 121 is located at the inner end surface of the slide plate 120; the elastic component 130 and the spherical component 140 are installed in the slide groove 121, and the elastic component 130 is away from the opening of the slide groove 121, and the spherical component 140 faces the opening of the slide groove 121. The elastic component 130 drives the spherical member 140 to move in the slide groove 121 , pushes part of the spherical member 140 out of the opening of the slide groove 121 , and makes the spherical member 140 abut against the baffle plate 110 .
[0034] Optionally, the width of the cross-section of the slide groove 121 at the upper part is smaller than the width of the cross-section of the slide groove at the lower part. The solid-state hard disk body 100 includes an upper cover and a lower cover that are interlocked with each other. The "lower" mentioned here refers to the direction toward the lower cover, and the "upper" refers to the direction toward the upper cover. The lower surface of the slide groove plate 120 is fixed to the inner side surface of the lower cover. In this way, since the width of the cross-section of the slide groove 121 at the upper part is smaller than the width of the cross-section of the slide groove 121 at the lower part, the elastic component 130 and the spherical component 140 are prevented from detaching from the slide groove 121.
[0035] Also optional, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the slide groove 121 is divided into a first slide groove area 1211 and a second slide groove area 1212. The first slide groove area 1211 is far away from the baffle plate 110, and the second slide groove area 1212 is close to the baffle plate 110. The diameter of the first slide groove area 1211 is larger than the diameters of the spherical part 140 and the elastic component 130. The diameter of the first slide groove area 1211 is larger than the diameter of the second slide groove area 1212. Therefore, when the spherical part 140 and the elastic component 130 are assembled into the slide groove 121, the spherical part 140 and the elastic component 130 are placed in the first slide groove area 1211 in turn, the elastic component 130 is stretched, and under the elastic force of the elastic component 130, parts of the spherical part 140 and the elastic component 130 enter the second slide groove area 1212. Since the second slide groove area 1212 with a smaller diameter limits parts of the spherical part 140 and the elastic component 130, the spherical part 140 and the elastic component 130 are prevented from falling off.
[0036] Optionally, the width of the insertion gap 150 (i.e., Figure 2 The size of the insertion gap along the Y-axis direction) is smaller than the diameter of the spherical member 140, so that when the SSD cover 200 is not connected to the SSD body 100, the spherical member 140 will not fall off from the insertion gap 150. Optionally, the elastic member 130 is a spring.
[0037] A connector male head 220 is installed in the SSD cover 200, and the connector is, for example, a USB connector or a Type-C connector. Two inserts 210 are respectively located on the outside of the connector male head 220 and have a matching gap 230 between them, and the extension direction of the two inserts 210 is the same as the extension direction of the connector plug interface. In addition, a positioning groove 211 facing outward is also provided on the insert 210, and when the SSD cover is connected to the SSD, after the insert 210 extends into the plug-in gap 150, the positioning groove 211 is opposite to the slide groove to accommodate the spherical member 140.
[0038] The SSD cover 200 is covered onto the connection end of the SSD body 100, and the connector male head 220 passes through the connector plug interface to cooperate with the connector female head 160. At the same time, the baffle plate 110 extends into the matching gap 230, and the insert 210 passes through the connector plug interface and extends into the plug-in gap 150. During this process, the front end of the insert 210 squeezes the spherical member 140 to squeeze the spherical member 140 into the slide groove 121. As the insert 210 continues to extend into the plug-in gap 150, the positioning groove 211 is opposite to the slide groove 121. Under the reaction of the elastic component 130, the spherical member 140 is stuck in the positioning groove 211, thereby increasing the resistance between the insert 210 and the spherical member 140 along the plug-in direction (X direction), so that the SSD cover 200 is stably covered on the SSD body 100, avoiding looseness between the SSD cover 200 and the SSD body 100, and preventing the SSD cover 200 from falling off.
[0039] Optionally, the width of the rear section of the insert 210 is greater than the width of the front section of the insert 210. The "width" direction mentioned here is as follows: Figure 4 In the Y-axis direction shown, the inner side surface of the rear section of the insert 210 is fixed to the outer side surface of the connector male head 220, so that a fitting gap 230 is formed between the front section of the insert 210 and the connector male head 220. Alternatively, the insert 210 is in a flat plate shape. Alternatively, the size of the fitting gap 230 corresponds to the size of the baffle plate 110.

[0042] A connector plug interface is provided on the end face of the connection end of the solid state drive body 100, and a connector female head 160 is installed inside the solid state drive body 100. The connector female head 160 corresponds to the connector plug interface, and the connector female head 160 is used to connect to the connector male head of the solid state drive cover.
[0043] Two baffle plates 110, two slide plates 120, two elastic components 130 and two spherical components 140 are installed in the solid state drive body 100. The two baffle plates 110 are respectively located on the outside of the connector female head 160, and the two baffle plates 110 also correspond to the connector plug interface, and their extension direction is the same as the extension direction of the connector plug interface.
[0044] The first slide plate 120 is located outside the first baffle plate 110, and the second slide plate 120 is located outside the second baffle plate 110. In addition, there is an insertion gap 150 between the inner end surface of each of the two slide plates 120 and the outer side surface of the corresponding baffle plate 110, and the insertion gap 150 also corresponds to the connector plug interface and accommodates one of the two inserts 210 of the solid state drive cover 200.
[0045] In addition, a slide groove 121 is provided on the slide groove plate 120, the extension direction of the slide groove 121 is the same as the Y-axis direction, and the opening of the slide groove 121 is located at the inner end surface of the slide groove plate 120. The elastic component 130 and the spherical component 140 are installed in the slide groove 121, and the elastic component 130 is away from the opening of the slide groove 121, and the spherical component 140 is toward the opening of the slide groove 121. The elastic component 130 drives the spherical component 140 to move in the slide groove 121, pushes part of the spherical component 140 to the outside of the opening of the slide groove 121, and makes the spherical component 140 abut against the baffle plate 110.
[0046] Embodiment 3

The two inserts 210 are respectively located on the outside of the connector male head 220, and there is a matching gap 230 between the connector male head 210, and the extension direction of the two inserts 210 is the same as the extension direction of the connector plug interface of the solid state drive body 100.
[0048] When the SSD cover 200 is connected to the SSD, the two matching gaps 230 respectively accommodate one of the two baffle plates 110 in the connector plug interface of the SSD.
[0049] In addition, the insert 210 is also provided with a positioning groove 211 facing outward, and when the insert 210 extends into the insertion gap 150 when the SSD cover 200 is connected to the SSD, the positioning groove 211 is opposite to the slide groove to accommodate one of the two spherical parts 140 of the SSD.
