[0066] The following will disclose multiple embodiments of the utility model with the accompanying drawings. For the sake of clarity, many practical details will be described together in the following description. However, those skilled in the art should understand that in some embodiments of the utility model, these practical details are not necessary and should not be used to limit the utility model. In addition, in order to simplify the drawings, some commonly used structures and components will be illustrated in a simple schematic manner in the drawings. In addition, for the convenience of readers, the sizes of the components in the drawings are not drawn according to the actual scale.

[0067] Figure 1 It is a three-dimensional diagram of a handle mechanism 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 for Figure 1 A three-dimensional view of the handle mechanism 10 from another perspective. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the grip mechanism 10 includes a grip body 100, a plurality of (e.g., 2) recessed grooves 130 and a plurality of (e.g., 2) arcuate flanges 250. The recessed grooves 130 are arranged in sequence along the long axis direction (e.g., Y axis) of the grip body 100, and each recessed groove 130 is formed at the long side edge 111 of the grip body 100 and is recessed toward a first direction (e.g., X axis). The arcuate flanges 250 are connected to the grip body 100, and the arcuate flanges 250 are arranged in sequence along the long axis direction (e.g., Y axis) of the grip body 100. Each arcuate flange 250 corresponds to one of the recessed grooves 130. The arcuate flange 250 is, for example, U-shaped, located at the edge 131 of the recessed groove 130, and extends along the edge 131 of the recessed groove 130, and extends downward from the edge 131 of the recessed groove 130 toward a second direction (e.g., Z axis). However, the present invention is not limited to the number of the concave groove 130 and the arc-shaped flange 250 , and in other embodiments, there may be only one.

[0068] More specifically, the handle body 100 includes a linear rib 113. The linear rib 113 is located on the other long side edge 112 of the handle body 100 opposite to the recessed grooves 130, and extends downward from the other long side edge 112 toward the second direction (such as the Z axis), and the long axis direction (such as the Y axis) of the linear rib 113 is parallel to the long axis direction (such as the Y axis) of the handle body 100.

[0069] In addition, the cross section of the grip body 100 is L-shaped, including a first portion 110 and a second portion 120 that are orthogonal to each other. The first portion 110 extends in a first direction (such as the X-axis), and the second portion 120 extends in a second direction (such as the Z-axis). Each recessed groove 130 is located at the intersection of the first portion 110 and the second portion 120, that is, the recessed groove 130 is formed on both the first portion 110 and the second portion 120. Each arc-shaped flange 250 connects the first portion 110 and the second portion 120 at the same time, and the inner arc surface 251 of the arc-shaped flange 250 becomes the groove bottom of the recessed groove 130. In addition, the second portion 120 has a plurality of (for example, 2) openings 121. These openings 121 are arranged in sequence along the long axis direction (such as the Y-axis) of the grip body 100, and each opening 121 is connected to one of the recessed grooves 130.

[0070] Furthermore, the handle mechanism 10 further includes two pivoting portions 231 (such as pivoting holes or pivoting posts). The pivoting portions 231 are respectively located at two opposite sides of the second portion 120 , so that the handle body 100 can be pivotally connected to an object (not shown).

[0071] The grip mechanism 10 further includes a locking element 260. The locking element 260 is disposed on the grip body 100 to detachably lock the grip body 100 to the object (not shown). In this embodiment, the locking element 260 is disposed through the second portion 120 of the grip body 100. For example, the locking element 260 is a quick-release bolt or the like, which is limited in the through hole 122 opened on the second portion 120 of the grip body 100, and can provide a function of quickly locking to or disassembling from an object.

[0072] Figure 3 for Figure 1 An exploded view of the grip mechanism 10. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, for example, the handle body 100 includes an inner frame 210, an outer frame 220 and two rotating arms 230. The outer frame 220 and the inner frame 210 are locked with each other. These rotating arms 230 are respectively fixed to two opposite sides of the outer frame 220 to be pivotally connected to the above-mentioned object.

[0073] In addition, the grip mechanism 10 further includes a clamped frame 240. The clamped frame 240 includes a plurality of (e.g., 6) first lugs 241, two second lugs 242 opposite to each other, a connecting portion 243, and the aforementioned arc-shaped flanges 250. Each arc-shaped flange 250 is respectively connected to one of the first lugs 241, a plurality of (e.g., 3) second lugs 242, and the connecting portion 243, that is, the first lugs 241, the second lugs 242, and the connecting portion 243 are arranged at intervals on the periphery of one of the arc-shaped flanges 250.

[0074] Thus, when the outer frame 220 and the inner frame 210 are locked with each other, the first lugs 241, the second lugs 242 and the connecting portion 243 are all clamped between the outer frame 220 and the inner frame 210, so that the arc-shaped flanges 250 protrude from the edges 131 of the corresponding recessed grooves 130, thereby forming a modularized grip body 100.

[0075] In addition, the inner frame 210 has a plurality of (e.g., 2) first openings 121A and first through openings 122A, and the outer frame 220 has a plurality of (e.g., 2) second openings 121B and second through openings 122B. Therefore, when the outer frame 220 and the inner frame 210 are locked together, each first opening 121A is aligned with one of the second openings 121B to form the opening portion 121 ( Figure 1), and the first through hole 122A is aligned with the second through hole 122B, and together constitute the through hole portion 122 ( Figure 1 ).

[0076] The handle mechanism 10 further includes two hook portions 232. Each hook portion 232 is located at the end of one of the rotating arms 230, and each rotating arm 230 further has the pivoting portion 231 at its end.

[0077] Figure 4 It is a three-dimensional diagram of a housing assembly 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 for Figure 4 The exploded view of the housing 310 and the handle mechanism 10 is shown. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the housing assembly 300 includes a housing 310 and the aforementioned handle mechanism 10. The handle body 100 of the handle mechanism 10 is pivotally connected to two opposite sides of the housing 310, and the recessed grooves 130 are all located on the side of the handle body 100 facing the housing 310. Therefore, the operator can rotate the handle mechanism 10 relative to the housing 310, or use the handle mechanism 10 to move the housing 310 into and out of a case B ( Fig. 6A ).

[0078] More specifically, in this embodiment, the housing 310 is, for example, a casing of a server device, and the housing 310 includes a bottom plate 320, a first side plate 330, and two second side plates 340, and the bottom plate 320, the first side plate 330, and the second side plates 340 together define a receiving space 350. The receiving space 350 is used to receive the required units of the server device (not shown). The pivoting portions 231 of the grip mechanism 10 are respectively located at two opposite sides of the grip body 100, so that the grip body 100 can be pivotally connected to these second side plates 340 of the housing 310 through the pivot P.

[0079] In addition, the side of the housing 310 has a locking portion 331. For example, in this embodiment, the locking portion 331 is formed on the outer side of the first side plate 330 of the housing 310. In this way, when the handle mechanism 10 is rotated to the housing 310 so that the recessed groove 130 of the handle mechanism 10 gradually approaches the first side plate 330 of the housing 310, the locking element 260 is locked to the locking portion 331, so that the handle mechanism 10 can be fixed to the housing 310.

[0080] Fig. 6A and Figure 6B They are Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the housing assembly 300 and the handle mechanism 10 being grasped by the hand H. Fig. 6A and Figure 6BAs shown, when the operator wants to rotate the handle mechanism 10, the operator grasps the handle mechanism 10 and rotates the handle mechanism 10 away from the first side plate 330 ( Figure 6B ).

[0081] It should be understood that when the operator wants to grasp the grip mechanism 10, the operator's hands are respectively inserted into the recessed grooves 130, and the operator grasps the first portion 110 of the grip body 100 in the recessed grooves 130, wherein the operator's thumb F1 is pressed against the linear rib 113 of the grip body 100, and the other four fingers F2 are pressed against the inner arc surface 251 of the arc-shaped flanges 250 in the recessed grooves 130. In this way, through the provision of the arc-shaped flanges 250, it is possible to avoid the side of the first portion 110 of the grip body 100 directly pressing the operator's hand H, thereby reducing the chance of causing discomfort to the operator's hand H. In addition, due to the provision of the arc-shaped flanges 250, the thickness of the grip body 100 can be increased, thereby improving the convenience of the operator holding the grip body 100.

[0082] On the contrary, when the operator rotates the handle mechanism 10, the handle mechanism 10 is abutted against the first side plate 330 ( Fig. 6A ), by rotating the hook portion 232 of the support arm 230 to hook the fixing structure S in the chassis B, the handle mechanism 10 can fix the shell 310 in this chassis B; then, the operator can further lock the locking element 260 to the locking portion 331, thereby fixing the handle mechanism 10 on the shell 310.

[0083] Thus, through the above structure, the housing assembly and the handle mechanism thereof of the present invention can improve the operator's gripping feeling of the handle mechanism, thereby helping the operator to pull out the housing assembly.

[0084] Finally, the above disclosed embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all of them can be protected by the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the definition of the attached claims.
