DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0020] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model provides a technical solution: a computer hardware dustproof slot structure, comprising a socket 1 installed on a computer motherboard, with card slots 2 provided on the outer walls of both sides of the socket 1, a telescopic device 3 provided inside the card slot 2, a sealing structure 4 provided between the two telescopic devices 3, and grooves 5 provided on the front and rear side walls of the socket 1.

[0021] In this embodiment, the sealing structure 4 includes a sealing frame 401 , and two guide plates 402 symmetrically distributed on the left and right are arranged inside the sealing frame 401 . The guide plates 402 have a trapezoidal cross section, and a sealing plate 403 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the guide plates 402 .

[0022] During specific use: the two guide plates 402 with trapezoidal cross-sections can facilitate the later insertion of the gold finger into the socket 1, and the sealing plate 403 can seal the unused socket 1 to reduce the situation where foreign matter such as dust enters the gold finger.

[0023] In this embodiment: a connecting plate 404 is fixedly installed on the side walls of the two guide plates 402 that are away from each other, a cavity 405 adapted to the connecting plate 404 is opened on the inner wall of the sealing frame 401, and a second connecting rod 406 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the connecting plate 404 away from the guide plate 402. The second connecting rod 406 is slidably connected to the sealing frame 401, and a reset spring 407 is sleeved on the second connecting rod 406. The two ends of the reset spring 407 are respectively fixedly connected to the connecting plate 404 and the sealing frame 401.

[0024] When used specifically: after the gold finger is installed, the sealing plate 403 will be attached to the surface of the gold finger under the reverse pressure of the return spring 407 to prevent dust and other impurities from entering the socket 1 and causing damage to the slot.

[0025] In this embodiment, guide grooves 408 are formed on the upper and lower side walls of the connecting plate 404 , and guide blocks 409 that can slide inside the guide grooves 408 are fixedly installed on the top and bottom of the inner wall of the cavity 405 .

[0026] During specific use: the guide block 409 can slide inside the guide groove 408 to prevent the connection plate 404 from getting stuck when sliding in the cavity 405, resulting in the gold finger being unable to be inserted into the socket 1.

[0027] In this embodiment: the telescopic device 3 includes a sleeve 301, one end of the sleeve 301 is slidably connected to a first connecting rod 302, a first connecting seat 303 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the first connecting rod 302, the outer diameter of the first connecting seat 303 matches the inner diameter of the sleeve 301, and a pressure spring 304 is fixedly installed between the first connecting seat 303 and the sleeve 301.

[0028] Specific use: During assembly, an external force is applied to the sleeve 301 and the first connecting rod 302 to move them away from each other to stretch the pressure spring 304, thereby extending the distance between the sealing frame 401 and the block 306. Then, the block 306 is pushed into the socket 1 along the slot 2, and the external force on the sleeve 301 and the first connecting rod 302 is released. The sealing frame 401 fits onto the upper surface of the socket 1 under the reverse elastic force of the pressure spring 304.

[0029] In this embodiment: a second connecting seat 305 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sleeve 301, a block 306 adapted to the slot 2 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the second connecting seat 305, and a fixing ring 307 is fixedly installed at one end of the first connecting rod 302 away from the sleeve 301, and a fixing hole is opened inside the fixing ring 307.

[0030] During specific use: the fixing ring 307 can be installed on both sides of the sealing frame 401 through the fixing hole to connect the first connecting rod 302 and the sealing frame 401, and the clamping block 306 can slide along the clamping groove 2 and cooperate with the pressure spring 304 to fix the position of the sealing frame 401.

[0031] Working principle: When in use, apply external force to the sleeve 301 and the first connecting rod 302 to move away from each other to stretch the pressure spring 304, thereby extending the distance between the sealing frame 401 and the block 306, and then push the block 306 into the socket 1 along the slot 2, and release the external force on the sleeve 301 and the first connecting rod 302. The sealing frame 401 fits on the upper surface of the socket 1 under the reverse elastic force of the pressure spring 304, which facilitates assembly and can seal the socket 1 and its slot. When it is necessary to insert the gold finger, press the gold finger downward along the two sets of guide plates 402. The two guide plates 402 and the sealing plate 403 will move to both sides at this time to squeeze the reset spring 407. When the gold finger is installed, the sealing plate 403 will be attached to the surface of the gold finger under the reverse pressure of the reset spring 407 to prevent dust and other impurities from entering the socket 1 and causing damage to the slot.
