[0028] The utility model provides a solid state hard disk with dust and moisture proof interface 501, as shown in the attached Figure 1 and 3 As shown, the solid-state drive includes a housing 1, a cover 2, a connecting assembly 3, and a fixing member 4. The fixing member 4 is used to fix the circuit board 5 of the solid-state drive so that the interface 501 of the solid-state drive is located on the fixing member 4. A first opening 101 is provided on the end surface of one end of the housing 1. The fixing member 4 is inserted into the housing 1 along the first opening 101, so that the circuit board 5 is fixed in the housing 1. At the same time, the interface 501 of the housing 1 of the solid-state drive is provided in the first opening 101. A second opening 201 is provided at one end of the cover 2. The second opening 201 is adapted to fit outside the end of the housing 1 where the first opening 101 is provided, thereby sealing the interface 501 of the solid-state drive, thereby achieving a dust-proof and moisture-proof effect.

[0029] Preferably, as shown in the attached Figure 4As shown, a rubber sealing ring 22 can also be pasted on the bottom surface of the cover body 2. When the second opening 201 of the cover body 2 is put on the outside of the first opening 101 of the shell 1, the sealing ring 22 in the cover body 2 is attached to the end of the first opening 101, thereby improving the airtightness inside the shell 1, that is, improving the dust and moisture-proof effect.

[0030] As attached Figure 5 As shown, connecting components 3 are provided on both sides between the housing 1 and the cover 2. Figure 2 The connecting assembly 3 includes a first pipe 31, a second pipe 32, a first spring 33 and a sealing pipe 34. The housing 1 is as shown in the attached Figure 6 As shown, the rotating shaft 35 is fixed on both sides of the cover 2 near the first opening 101, and the housing 1 is connected to the first tube 31 through the rotating shaft 35, so that the first tube 31 rotates relative to the housing 1 with the rotating shaft 35 as the axis. Figure 7 As shown, the cover 2 is also provided with shafts 35 on both sides, and the cover 2 is connected to the second tube 32 via the shafts 35, so that the second tube 32 rotates relative to the cover 2 about the shafts 35. Preferably, the shafts 35 can be integrally formed with the housing 1 or the cover 2.

[0031] Furthermore, the end of the second tube 32, distal from the rotation axis 35, extends into the first tube 31. The first spring 33 is embedded within the first and second tubes 31, 32. The ends of the first spring 33 are connected to the rotation axis 35 of the housing 1 and the rotation axis 35 of the cover 2, respectively. The contraction of the first spring 33 causes the cover 2 to be pulled tight against the outside of the housing 1, further enhancing the tightness of the cover 2 sealing the first opening 101 of the housing 1. In this structure, the second tube 32 extends into the first tube 31, allowing it to expand and contract relative to the first tube 31 as the first spring 33 expands and contracts. Furthermore, the first and second tubes 31, 32 conceal the first spring 33, enhancing the aesthetics of the solid-state drive. Preferably, hooks are provided at each end of the first spring 33, which hook onto the rotation axis 35 of the housing 1 and the rotation axis 35 of the cover 2, respectively, forming a connection structure that pulls the cover toward the housing 1.

[0032] Please refer to the attached Figure 9 and 10The first and second tube members 31, 32 are respectively connected to the sealing tube 34 and are sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 35 for rotation. The sealing tube 34 is closed at one end and has an internally threaded port at the other end. The sealing tube 34 also has connecting holes extending through both sides thereof, which are used to sleeve on the outside of the rotating shaft 35. During assembly, after the connecting holes of the sealing tube 34 are sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 35, a fixing bolt 36 is screwed onto the end of the rotating shaft 35, so that the sealing tube 34 is restrained between the side wall of the housing 1 or the side wall of the cover 2 and the screw head of the fixing bolt 36. The first and second tube members 31, 32 are then screwed to the corresponding ports of the sealing tube 34, so that one end of the first tube member 31 is restrained from rotating relative to the housing 1, and one end of the second tube member 32 is restrained from rotating relative to the cover 2. In this connection structure, the connection hole of the sealing tube 34 can be first sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 35, and then the hook at the end of the first spring 33 can be extended into the sealing tube 34 and then hooked on the rotating shaft 35; then the first tube 31 can be sleeved on the outside of the first spring 33 and spirally connected to the sealing tube 34; then one end of the second tube 32 can pass through the first spring 33 and extend into the first tube 31; finally, the hook at the other end of the first spring 33 can be extended into the sealing tube 34 on the side of the cover body 2 and hooked at the rotating shaft 35, and the end of the second tube 32 away from the extension into the first tube 31 can be spirally connected to the sealing tube 34 on the side of the cover body 2, so that the ends of the first tube 31 and the second tube 32 are sealed by the sealing tube 34, so that the two ends of the first spring 33 are hidden, further improving the overall aesthetics of the solid state drive.

[0033] Please refer to the attached Figure 3 、 4 and 8, the fixing part 4 has a sealing plate 41 and a mounting plate 42 that are perpendicular to each other. Preferably, the sealing plate 41 and the mounting plate 42 can be integrally formed by injection molding. The mounting plate 42 is used to fix the circuit board 5 of the solid-state hard disk, and its fixing method can be fixed by through-screws, and the interface 501 of the solid-state hard disk is set at the sealing plate 41 and exposed from the sealing plate 41. During assembly, the mounting plate 42 is inserted into the shell 1 along the first opening 101, so that the sealing plate 41 seals the cross-section in the first opening 101 of the shell 1, and the circuit board 5 of the solid-state hard disk is fixed in the shell 1. Specifically, a step is provided on the side wall at one end of the first opening 101 in the shell 1. After the mounting plate 42 is inserted into the shell 1 along the first opening 101, the sealing plate 41 is attached to the step, and then the four corners of the sealing plate 41 are screwed into the step, so that the fixing part 4 can be fixed in the shell 1. Furthermore, a slot 102 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 1 at one end away from the first opening 101. The mounting plate 42 is inserted into the housing 1 and fits into the slot 102. This structure can enhance the secure fixation of the fixing member 4 within the housing 1. Preferably, the step can also enclose a circle of rubber rings, and the sealing plate 41 is pressed against the sealing ring 22 to secure it, thereby effectively sealing the interior of the housing 1.

[0034] In addition, as attached Figure 8 and10 As shown, the sealing plate 41 is provided with a sliding groove 43 on both sides of the interface 501 on the side facing the first opening 101. Two slide plates 44 are embedded between the two sliding grooves 43. The upper and lower sides of the slide plates 44 are respectively embedded in the two sliding grooves 43. The sealing plate 41 is also provided with a recessed groove 401 on both sides between the two sliding grooves 43. Figure 5 and 7 , guide parts 21 are provided on both sides of the cover body 2, and guide slopes 211 are provided on the side facing the middle of the cover body 2. When the second opening 201 of the cover body 2 closes the first opening 101 of the shell 1, the two guide parts 21 are respectively inserted into the two makeshift grooves 401 of the sealing plate 41. During the process of the guide parts 21 being inserted into the makeshift grooves 401, the guide slopes 211 push the slide 44 toward the middle of the sealing plate 41, so that the two slides 44 automatically seal the interface 501, thereby improving the dust and moisture-proof sealing performance of the interface 501. Furthermore, the two slides 44 are connected to the second spring between the end portion close to one end of the inner wall of the shell 1 and the inner wall of the shell 1. Both ends of the second spring have hooks, and the hooks at both ends are respectively hooked on the fixing pins set on the side of the sealing plate 41 and the fixing pins set at the ends of the slides 44, so that the elastic force of the contraction of the second spring pushes the two slides 44 to the two sides of the shell 1, so that the interface 501 is automatically opened without manual manipulation, which facilitates the connection and use of the interface 501.

[0035] In summary, when using the present invention, the cover 2 is pulled parallel to the housing 1 until it is free from the first opening 101, and then the cover 2 is flipped up, thereby opening the interface 501 for plugging and unplugging. When not in use, the cover 2 is pulled away from the housing 1, causing a portion of the second tube 32 to extend out of the first tube 31, while the first spring 33 is stretched. The cover 2 is then flipped over until the second opening 201 corresponds to the first opening 101 of the housing 1. The cover 2 is then released, causing the first spring 33 to contract and, at the same time, the force of the contraction of the first spring 33 is used to tighten the cover 2 around the outside of the housing 1, thereby sealing the interface 501 within the housing 1. This protects the interface 501 from dust and moisture, thereby increasing the service life of the solid-state drive.

[0036] The above is only a specific implementation method of the present invention, but the design concept of the present invention is not limited to this. Any non-substantial changes to the present invention using this concept shall be deemed as an infringement of the protection scope of the present invention.
