[0018] The technical solution of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0019] Embodiment
[0020] As Figures 1-3 shown, a fixing structure for a server fan bracket proposed by the present utility model includes a U-shaped base 1. Two screw hole seats 2 are symmetrically installed on both side walls of the base 1 for cooperating with screws to fix the base 1 inside the server. The fan 3 is arranged inside the base 1. A plurality of vertical rods 4 are symmetrically installed on both side walls of the fan 3 and are also arranged in slots symmetrically opened on both inner walls of the base 1, so as to achieve the purpose of initially limiting the fan 3 and prevent the fan 3 from moving back and forth after the initial installation, which affects the subsequent fixing of the position of the fan 3. And with the setting of the base 1, it is only necessary to install the fan 3 on the base 1, without the need to disassemble the base 1 every time the fan 3 is disassembled.
[0021] Furthermore, positioning components 5 for facilitating the position fixing of the fan 3 are symmetrically installed on the fan 3. The positioning components 5 include a movable member 51, a first spring 52, a second spring 53, a movable plug 54 and a pull rod 55. The movable member 51 is L-shaped, and a part of the structure of the movable member 51 is arranged in a movable cavity symmetrically opened on the fan 3; a plurality of first springs 52 are arranged between the back of the movable member 51 and the inner wall on the other side of the movable cavity, and both ends of the plurality of first springs 52 are fixedly connected to the back wall of the first spring 52 and the other side wall of the movable cavity respectively, for assisting the movement of the movable member 51, and under the elastic action of the first spring 52, it is beneficial to push the movable member 51 towards the inner wall of the base 1 to facilitate the subsequent fixing of the position of the fan 3;
[0022] The lower ends of a plurality of second springs 53 are fixedly connected to the top wall of the horizontal part of the movable member 51, and the upper ends of the plurality of second springs 53 are fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the movable plug 54 for assisting the movable plug 54 to rise or fall. A part of the vertical structure of the movable plug 54 penetrates through the opening on the side wall of the movable cavity and is arranged in a limit groove symmetrically opened on the inner surface wall of the base 1. At the same time, a part of the vertical structure of the movable plug 54 is also under the elastic release action of the second spring 53, so that it is inserted into a positioning groove opened on the top wall of the limit groove. Thus, with the cooperation of the positioning groove and the movable plug 54, the fan 3 can be quickly fixed on the base 1 to complete the installation without the assistance of tools, avoiding the influence of the environment on the installation and disassembly of the fan 3.
[0023] The pull rod 55 is welded to the top of the other vertical structure of the movable plug-in 54, facilitating the user to press the movable plug-in 54 to descend. The dovetail block fixedly connected to the back wall of the movable plug-in 54 is arranged in the dovetail chute opened on the wall of the movable member 51 in the front view direction. With the cooperation of the dovetail block and the dovetail chute, it is beneficial to guide the movable plug-in 54 in the lifting and lowering states, facilitating the partial vertical structure of the movable plug-in 54 to disengage from the positioning groove and the limiting groove during the descending process, releasing the limitation on the fan 3, and completing the quick disassembly of the fan 3, providing convenience for the disassembly, replacement and maintenance of the fan 3.
[0024] The above specific embodiments are merely several preferred embodiments of the present invention. Based on the technical solution of the present invention and the relevant revelations of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
