[0008] In the present invention, a first avoidance hole is formed on the first substrate, and the end of the first elastic arm is located at the edge of the first avoidance hole.

[0009] The utility model provides a second avoidance hole and a third avoidance hole on the second substrate, the second avoidance hole is connected to the third avoidance hole, the first connecting seat also includes a support rod and a limiting cap, the support rod and the limiting cap are located on the side of the first substrate away from the first elastic arm, the two ends of the support rod are respectively connected to the limiting cap and the first substrate, the support rod is inserted into the second avoidance hole or the third avoidance hole, and when the support rod is located at the third avoidance hole, the limiting cap limits the second substrate along the axial direction of the support rod.

[0010] The outer wall of the connecting rod of the utility model is provided with an external thread, and the connecting rod is rotatably arranged on the second base plate.

[0011] The end of the connecting rod of the utility model is provided with a knob.

[0012] In the present invention, the cross section of the connecting channel gradually decreases in the direction away from the first substrate.

[0013] The second connecting seat of the present invention further comprises a connecting plate, which is fixed on the second base plate and has a connecting hole.

[0040] Example:

[0041] See also Figures 5-10 This embodiment provides an electronic data cabinet, including a cabinet, a chassis 5, and a connecting assembly. The cabinet includes a plurality of longitudinal beams 4, each having mounting holes 41 formed therein. The chassis 5 is fixed to the connecting assembly, which is mounted in the mounting holes 41. The chassis 5 is mounted on the longitudinal beams 4 via the connecting assembly.

[0042] The connecting assembly includes a first connecting seat 1 and a second connecting seat 2 .

[0043] See also Figure 1 The first connecting seat 1 includes a first elastic arm 11, a first substrate 12, and a second elastic arm 13. The number of the first elastic arms 11 is at least two. For example, in the present embodiment, there are four first elastic arms 11. All the first elastic arms 11 are arranged on the first substrate 12 in a circular array, so that all the first elastic arms 11 surround and form a connecting channel. The second elastic arms 13 are located outside the connecting channel, wherein the number of the second elastic arms 13 is not more than the number of the first elastic arms 11, so that at most one second elastic arm 13 is arranged on each first elastic arm 11. Taking the present embodiment as an example, a second elastic arm 13 is arranged on each first elastic arm 11. One end of the second elastic arm 13 is arranged on the first elastic arm 11, and the other end of the second elastic arm 13 points to the first substrate 12 and is arranged at a distance from the first substrate 12.

[0044] The first elastic arm 11 and the second elastic arm 13 can avoid the edge of the mounting hole 41 by deforming, allowing the first elastic arm 11 and the second elastic arm 13 to pass through the mounting hole 41 until the second elastic arm 13 completely passes through the mounting hole 41. At this time, the first base plate 12 and the second elastic arm 13 are respectively located on either side of the mounting hole 41. After passing through the mounting hole 41, the second elastic arm 13 loses the pressure from the edge of the mounting hole 41 and recovers to a certain extent. As a result, the end of the second elastic arm 13 facing away from the first elastic arm 11 can be pressed against the longitudinal beam 4. At the same time, the first base plate 12 also presses against the longitudinal beam 4, thereby achieving a preliminary positioning of the first connecting base 1 on the longitudinal beam 4.

[0045] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The second connecting base 2 includes a second base plate 21, a connecting rod 22, and a connecting plate 23. The connecting rod 22 is mounted on the second base plate 21. Generally, the connecting rod 22 is perpendicular to the second base plate 21. The connecting plate 23 is fixed to the second base plate 21 and has a connecting hole 231 formed therein. Generally, the connecting plate 23 is also perpendicular to the second base plate 21, and the connecting rod 22 is parallel to the connecting plate 23.

[0046] See also Figure 11 The connecting plate 23 can be fixed to the chassis 5 by setting screws at the connecting holes 231. Figure 5-10 After the first connecting base 1 is assembled to the longitudinal beam 4, the connecting rod 22 can be inserted into the connecting channel. As the connecting rod 22 enters the connecting channel, it can further expand the first elastic arm 11, causing the first elastic arm 11 to further press the edge of the mounting hole 41. This allows the first elastic arm 11 to exert a clamping force on the connecting rod 22, thereby locking the connecting rod 22 in the connecting channel. The chassis 5 and the second connecting base 2 are thus assembled on the longitudinal beam 4.

[0047] In this embodiment, the first connecting seat 1 replaces the slide rail of the prior art. The first connecting seat 1 can complete the assembly on the longitudinal beam 4 without using screws, and then allow the subsequent chassis 5 to be assembled to the longitudinal beam 4 through the second connecting seat 2, thereby greatly reducing the workload in the process of assembling the chassis 5 to the cabinet.

[0048] See also Figure 9 and Figure 10 In order to limit the assembly position of the chassis 5 , the first substrate 12 is attached to the second substrate 21 after the chassis 5 is assembled in place on the longitudinal beam 4 .

[0049] See also Figure 1A first avoidance hole 121 is defined on the first substrate 12. The end of the first elastic arm 11 is located at the edge of the first avoidance hole 121. The first elastic arm 11 and the second elastic arm 13 are located on the side of the first substrate 12 facing away from the second substrate 21. This prevents the first elastic arm 11 and the second elastic arm 13 from interfering with the adhesion between the first substrate 12 and the second substrate 21. Furthermore, the connecting rod 22 can also enter the connecting channel through the first avoidance hole 121.

[0050] Further preferably, the outer wall of the connecting rod 22 is provided with an external thread, and the connecting rod 22 is rotatably mounted on the second base plate 21, so that the connecting rod 22 can gradually enter the connecting channel by rotating. In this way, as the connecting rod 22 gradually expands the first elastic arm 11, corresponding threads are generated on the first elastic arm 11 through friction, thereby increasing the clamping force of the first elastic arm 11 on the connecting rod 22.

[0051] In order to facilitate the rotation of the connecting rod 22 , a knob 221 is provided at the end of the connecting rod 22 .

[0052] See also Figure 10 In the direction away from the first substrate 12, the cross-section of the connecting channel gradually decreases. Accordingly, as the connecting rod 22 continues to enter the connecting channel, the deformation of the first elastic arm 11 can continue to increase, thereby continuously improving the clamping force of the first elastic arm 11 on the connecting rod 22.

[0053] See also Figure 9 In this embodiment, a third elastic arm 131 is provided at the end of the second elastic arm 13 facing away from the first elastic arm 11. The second elastic arm 13 compresses the longitudinal beam 4 via the third elastic arm 131. As the deformation of the first elastic arm 11 increases, the end of the second elastic arm 13 facing away from the first elastic arm 11 gradually approaches the longitudinal beam 4, causing the third elastic arm 131 to continuously deform on the second elastic arm 13. As the deformation of the third elastic arm 131 increases, the third elastic arm 131 is able to better conform to the longitudinal beam 4, thereby improving the stability of the second elastic arm 13's contact with the longitudinal beam 4.

[0054] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10The connection assembly of this embodiment also includes a buffer member 3, which includes a buffer sleeve 31 and a buffer pad 32. The buffer sleeve 31 and the buffer pad 32 are an integrated structure. The first elastic arm 11 is attached to the inner wall of the buffer sleeve 31, and the buffer sleeve 31 is located between the first elastic arm 11 and the edge of the mounting hole 41 to play a buffering and shock-absorbing role in the radial direction of the connecting rod 22. The buffer pad 32 is attached to the first base plate 12, and the buffer pad 32 is located between the first base plate 12 and the longitudinal beam 4. The end of the second elastic arm 13 is pressed on the longitudinal beam 4 to increase the pressure on the buffer pad 32 between the first base plate 12 and the longitudinal beam 4. The buffer pad 32 can play a buffering and shock-absorbing role in the axial direction of the connecting rod 22.

[0055] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, a second avoidance hole 211 and a third avoidance hole 212 are provided on the second substrate 21. The second avoidance hole 211 is connected to the third avoidance hole 212. The aperture of the second avoidance hole 211 is larger than that of the third avoidance hole 212. Therefore, the second avoidance hole 211 and the third avoidance hole 212 form a gourd hole. Figure 1 The first connecting seat 1 also includes a support rod 14 and a limiting cap 15. The support rod 14 and the limiting cap 15 are located on the side of the first base plate 12 facing away from the first elastic arm 11. The two ends of the support rod 14 are respectively connected to the limiting cap 15 and the first base plate 12. During the installation process of the second connecting seat 2, the second avoidance hole 211 is first passed through the limiting cap 15 until the first base plate 12 and the second base plate 21 are aligned. After the first base plate 12 and the second base plate 21 are aligned, the support rod 14 is inserted into the second avoidance hole 211. Then, the second connecting seat 2 is released. Under the action of gravity, the support rod 14 enters the third avoidance hole 212 until the edge of the third avoidance hole 212 is supported on the support rod 14. After the edge of the third avoidance hole 212 is supported on the support rod 14, the end of the connecting rod 22 is aligned with the first avoidance hole 121. At this time, the connecting rod 22 can be screwed into the connecting channel. At the same time, the limiting cap 15 can also limit the second base plate 21 along the axial direction of the support rod 14.

In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described.
