[0002] In the prior art, when installing a computer hard drive, it is usually fixed directly to a certain position of the chassis with bolts. However, as work needs change, it may be necessary to add another hard drive later. At this time, the position for installing the hard drive on the computer will be stretched, or the newly added hard drive may be directly placed in the chassis without being fixed.

[0003] First of all, hard drives, especially mechanical hard drives, are most afraid of external impacts, especially impacts perpendicular to the disk surface, which can easily cause physical bad sectors inside the hard drive and even directly damage the hard drive.

[0004] Secondly, the chassis space is already small. If the hard drive is installed in an unreasonable position, it will not only affect the appearance, but also affect the temperature of the hard drive. Especially nowadays, for convenience, most people like to use solid-state drives, and solid-state drives are very prone to data loss due to temperature reasons, affecting the normal use of the hard drive.

[0022] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] Example 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a hard disk bracket according to an embodiment of the present application includes a base 1, two upper folded walls 11 are symmetrically fixed to the top side of the base 1, and two lower folded walls 12 are symmetrically fixed to the bottom side of the base 1. The lower folded walls 12 and the upper folded walls 11 are located on the same two sides of the base 1, and the distance between the two upper folded walls 11 is greater than the distance between the two lower folded walls 12. Specifically, when installing the base 1, bolts can be used to fix the base 1 in the chassis, and preferably, the lower folded wall 12 and the chassis are fixed with bolts.

[0024] The inner side of the base 1 is elastically connected to a carrying plate 2 , and the carrying plate 2 and the base 1 are in elastic contact in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0025] Specifically, a plurality of vertical buffer pillars 13 are inserted into the top side of the base 1, two brackets 14 are symmetrically arranged on the top side of the base 1, and two mounting frames 21 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the carrying plate 2. The mounting frames 21 and the vertical buffer pillars 13 are inserted, and the mounting frames 21 are arranged in an L shape. The vertical end of the mounting frame 21 is inserted with a horizontal buffer pillar 22, and the other end of the horizontal buffer pillar 22 is inserted into the bracket 14. It can be seen that the carrying plate 2 is elastically connected to the base 1 through the vertical buffer pillars 13, and a horizontal elastic connection is formed between the base 1 and the horizontal buffer pillar 22. It should be noted that the vertical buffer pillars 13 and the horizontal buffer pillars 22 are preferably made of silicone material. In this way, the vertical buffer pillars 13 and the horizontal buffer pillars 22 will have a certain axial deformation ability, so that while playing a buffering role on the carrying plate 2, no motion interference will be generated.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, an adapter 24 is provided at one end of the carrier plate 2. It should be noted that one side of the adapter 24 is a female head and the other side is a male head, so as to form a plug-in relationship with the motherboard circuit and the hard disk connector respectively, and form a complete electrical connection state.

[0027] Furthermore, a fan 3 is provided on the base 1, and the fan 3 is electrically connected to the adapter 24. It can be seen that during use, the start and stop of the fan 3 is related to whether a hard disk is installed on its corresponding carrier plate 2, which is described in detail below.

[0028] Specifically, a ventilation hole 15 is provided on the base 1 , and the fan 3 is coaxially arranged at the ventilation hole 15 .

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, at least four fixing grooves 23 are evenly arranged on the carrier plate 2 , and the fixing grooves 23 are grouped in two. A fixing bar 231 is correspondingly arranged on each group of fixing grooves 23 .

[0030] It should be noted that, in the specific embodiments of this application, Figure 2 In the figure, the four fixing slots 23 form a group front and back respectively, that is, the two fixing slots 23 in a group are in a parallel state. After the hard disk is placed on the carrier plate 2, the specific position of the fixing bar 231 can be adjusted through the fixing slot 23 according to the actual size of the hard disk, and then a screw is inserted from under the fixing bar 231, and the screw and the hard disk are threadedly connected. In this way, the carrier plate 2 can place hard disks of different models within a certain range, so as to improve the scope of use of a hard disk bracket in this application.

[0031] Example 2, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, when multiple hard drives need to be installed, the hard drives can be placed on the corresponding carrier plates 2 and fixed by the fixing strips 231, and then at least two bases 1 with hard drives installed can be stacked. In the embodiment of the present application, two stackings are used as an example to illustrate, so that the lower folded wall 12 of the upper base 1 is plugged into the inner side of the upper folded wall 11 of the lower base 1, and then the upper folded wall 11 and the lower folded wall 12 of the two bases 1 that are now in a plug-in relationship are fixed by bolts. In this way, the two hard drive brackets with hard drives installed can be formed into a fixed stacking state, and the hard drives on the two bases 1 are respectively plugged into the corresponding adapters 24, and then the circuits on the motherboard are respectively plugged into the two adapters 24. At this time, the two hard drives will be electrically connected to the motherboard respectively. At the same time, the corresponding fans 3 on the two bases 1 will also be electrically connected to the motherboard at the same time. Therefore, in this case, when both hard disks are in normal use, the corresponding fans 3 on their bases 1 will also start synchronously, which will have the effect of cooling the hard disks. In this way, when a third or more hard disks need to be installed, the same method as above can be used. This design will enable the hard disks in the entire chassis to be stacked and fixed at the same time, and the two-way elastic connection between the carrier plate 2 and the base 1 can be used to form a good buffer, which has a good protection effect on the hard disks. Due to the design of the fans 3, the hard disks are prevented from losing data due to increased temperature. At the same time, the detachable stacking design makes the installation of the hard disks neat and beautiful, and greatly facilitates the electrical connection between the hard disks and the motherboard.

[0032] It should be noted that the specific model specifications of the vertical buffer support 13, the horizontal buffer support 22 and the fan 3 need to be selected and determined based on the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.

[0033] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and variations of the present application are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
