[0002] Solid - state drives, abbreviated as SSDs, also known as solid - state drives, are hard disks made of solid - state electronic storage chip arrays. As a medium for information storage, solid - state drives are widely used in many fields such as military, vehicle - mounted, industrial control, video surveillance, network surveillance, network terminals, electric power, medical treatment, aviation, navigation equipment, etc. When a solid - state drive is in use, it needs to be protected by a protective case.
[0003] Currently, the Chinese patent with the publication number CN221261958U discloses a solid - state drive with an anti - wear function for the outer case. In this utility model, first, slide the anti - slip cover, put the solid - state drive into the hard - disk slot, and then slide in the opposite direction to restore the anti - slip cover to complete the placement of the solid - state drive. When the solid - state drive is not in use, the spring pushes the socket protection plate to protect the socket of the solid - state drive. Rubber plates and rubber blocks are arranged on the outer wall of the protective case to reduce the wear of the solid - state drive caused by sliding or falling.
[0004] After the applicant reviewed the Chinese patent with the publication number CN221261958U, the following problems were found: The surface of the protective case in the existing technical solution does not have a heat - dissipation structure. After installing the solid - state drive inside the hard - disk slot, the heat dissipated by the solid - state drive during long - term operation is not convenient to dissipate in time, which is likely to affect the service life of the solid - state drive. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a heat - dissipation structure for a solid - state drive protection case, aiming to solve the problem that the surface of the protective case in the existing technical solution does not have a heat - dissipation structure. After installing the solid - state drive inside the hard - disk slot, the heat dissipated by the solid - state drive during long - term operation is not convenient to dissipate in time, which is likely to affect the service life of the solid - state drive.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, a heat - dissipation structure for a solid - state drive protection case proposed by the utility model includes a protective case body, a socket, and a solid - state drive body. A heat - dissipation mechanism is arranged on the top of the protective case body, and a filter element is arranged on the top of the heat - dissipation mechanism.
[0007] The heat - dissipation mechanism includes a plurality of copper fins, an exhaust pipe, a heat - dissipation box, and a heat - dissipation fan. The heat - dissipation fan is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heat - dissipation box. The exhaust pipe is arranged at the rear side of the heat - dissipation box. The bottom of the exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the protective case body. The copper fins are arranged at the rear side of the exhaust pipe, and the exhaust pipe is in contact with the front side of the copper fins.
[0008] Preferably, a through groove is formed in the top of the protection housing body. The number of the through grooves is several. The copper fins are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through groove, and the bottom of the copper fins is in contact with the top of the solid-state drive body.
[0009] Preferably, a connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the rear side of the heat dissipation box. The rear side of the connecting pipe is fixedly communicated with the front side of the exhaust pipe. An exhaust port is formed in the rear side of the exhaust pipe. The number of the exhaust ports is several and they are evenly distributed on the rear side of the exhaust pipe.
[0010] Preferably, through holes are formed in both sides of the protection housing body, and a dust-proof net is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through holes.
[0011] Preferably, an opening is formed in the top of the protection housing body, and the heat dissipation box is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the opening.
[0012] Preferably, a limiting ring is fixedly connected to the top of the protection housing body. The filter element is threadedly connected to the inside of the limiting ring, and the bottom of the filter element is in close contact with the top of the heat dissipation box.

[0014] Preferably, a cover plate is arranged on the top of the protection housing body, and the bottom of the cover plate is fixedly connected to the top of the copper fins.
[0015] In the technical solution of the present utility model, when the solid-state drive body generates heat, the heat will be absorbed by the copper fins in contact with the solid-state drive body. Then, the cooling fan is controlled to work. When the cooling fan works, a part of the air filtered by the filter element will be pumped into the connecting pipe, and then enter the exhaust pipe and be discharged through the exhaust port to the surface of the copper fins, taking away the heat absorbed by the heat-dissipating copper fins. It should be noted that the exhaust port is located between the opposite sides of two adjacent copper fins, which is convenient for the exhaust port to discharge the air to the surface of the copper fins. Another part of the air filtered by the cooling fan and pumped into the filter element will enter the inside of the protective housing body through the opening, blow the air to the surface of the solid-state drive body, and take away the heat generated when the solid-state drive body works again. Subsequently, the hot air is discharged through the dust-proof net. By holding the anti-slip strip, it is convenient to rotate the filter element to disengage from the limit ring, and then the filter element can be replaced. By simultaneously dissipating heat from the copper fins and the solid-state drive body through the cooling fan, the heat generated when the solid-state drive body works can be dissipated in two ways, increasing the heat dissipation efficiency when the solid-state drive body works. The filter element can remove dust in the air, avoid dust adhering to the surface of the solid-state drive body and the copper fins, and avoid the problem that the surface of the protective shell in the prior art solution does not have a heat dissipation structure. After installing the solid-state drive in the hard disk slot, the heat dissipated after the solid-state drive works for a long time is not convenient to dissipate in time, which easily affects the service life of the solid-state drive.

When the combination of technical solutions results in contradictions or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.
[0029] The present utility model provides a heat dissipation structure for a solid-state drive protection housing, aiming to solve the problem in the prior art that the surface of the protective housing does not have a heat dissipation structure. After installing the solid-state drive in the hard disk slot, the heat dissipated by the solid-state drive during long-term operation is not conveniently dissipated in time, which easily affects the service life of the solid-state drive.
[0030] As Figure 1-6 shown, a heat dissipation structure for a solid-state drive protection housing provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a protection housing body 1, a socket 2, and a solid-state drive body 14. A heat dissipation mechanism 5 is provided on the top of the protection housing body 1, and a filter element 3 is provided on the top of the heat dissipation mechanism 5;
[0031] The heat dissipation mechanism 5 includes a plurality of copper fins 501, an exhaust pipe 502, a heat dissipation box 503, and a heat dissipation fan 504. The heat dissipation fan 504 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heat dissipation box 503. The exhaust pipe 502 is provided at the rear side of the heat dissipation box 503. The bottom of the exhaust pipe 502 is fixedly connected to the top of the protection housing body 1. The copper fins 501 are provided at the rear side of the exhaust pipe 502, and the exhaust pipe 502 is in contact with the front side of the copper fins 501.
[0032] In the technical solution of the present utility model, when the solid-state drive body 14 generates heat during operation, the heat will be absorbed by the copper fins 501 in contact with the solid-state drive body 14. Then, the heat dissipation fan 504 is controlled to operate. When the heat dissipation fan 504 operates, a part of the air filtered by the filter element 3 can be pumped into the connecting pipe 11, and then enter the exhaust pipe 502 and be discharged through the exhaust port 12 to the surface of the copper fins 501, taking away the heat absorbed by the heat dissipation copper fins 501. It should be noted that the exhaust port 12 is located between the opposite sides of two adjacent copper fins 501, which is convenient for the exhaust port 12 to discharge the air to the surface of the copper fins 501. Another part of the air filtered by the heat dissipation fan 504 and pumped into the filter element 3 will enter the protection housing body 1 through the opening 10, blow the air to the surface of the solid-state drive body 14, and take away the heat generated by the solid-state drive body 14 during operation again. Subsequently, the hot air is discharged through the dust-proof net 6. By holding the anti-slip strip, it is convenient to rotate the filter element 3 to disengage from the limit ring 7, and then the filter element 3 can be replaced. By simultaneously dissipating heat from the copper fins 501 and the solid-state drive body 14 through the heat dissipation fan 504, the heat generated by the solid-state drive body 14 during operation can be dissipated in two ways, increasing the heat dissipation efficiency during the operation of the solid-state drive body 14. The filter element 3 can remove dust in the air, avoiding dust adhesion on the surface of the solid-state drive body 14 and the surface of the copper fins 501, and avoiding the problem in the prior art that the surface of the protective housing does not have a heat dissipation structure. After installing the solid-state drive in the hard disk slot, the heat dissipated by the solid-state drive during long-term operation is not conveniently dissipated in time, which easily affects the service life of the solid-state drive.
