Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to an expansion card, in particular to a hard disk storage device with heat dissipation function. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, servers have commonly used hard disk cards, such as PCIE (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) cards or M.2 cards, to allow the motherboard to transmit signals with hardware devices or perform other expansion functions. Generally, due to the limitation of the internal space of the server, the installation space of the expansion card is very limited and is often arranged behind high-heat electronic elements such as CPUs, resulting in the problem that the heat generated during the operation of the expansion card cannot be effectively dissipated, causing the expansion card to overheat. Therefore, there are currently heat dissipation modules installed on the expansion card to effectively ensure the heat dissipation operation of the expansion card, but usually additional screws and locking tools are required, and the user needs to carefully and laboriously perform complex locking actions to install the heat dissipation module on the expansion card, which is very troublesome and causes the user's inconvenience, and it is worth for practitioners to carefully think and further explore improvement. SUMMARY

[0003] Therefore, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a hard disk storage device that is tool-free assembled and has heat dissipation function.

[0004] The hard disk storage device with heat dissipation function comprises a mounting frame, a sliding cover combined with the mounting frame, a mainboard unit arranged in the mounting frame, a hard disk card unit detachably combined with the mounting frame, and a heat dissipation unit detachably combined with the mounting frame and covering the hard disk card unit. The mounting frame comprises a base unit, two side wall units extended from two opposite sides of the base unit to a direction away from the base unit, and a connecting frame module connecting the base unit and the side wall units. The base unit, the side wall units and the connecting frame module jointly define a containing space. The connecting frame module has a combined slot. The sliding cover is arranged on the side wall units of the mounting frame and can move horizontally relative to the side wall units. The sliding cover and the connecting frame module are located at two opposite ends of the side wall units. The sliding cover has a buckle member. The mainboard unit comprises a mainboard located in the containing space and a connector arranged on the mainboard. The hard disk card unit is detachably inserted into the connector of the mainboard unit and located in the containing space of the mounting frame. The heat dissipation unit comprises a heat dissipation fin module covering the hard disk card unit, a combined piece extended from the heat dissipation fin module to the combined slot of the connecting frame module, and a positioning piece extended from the heat dissipation fin module to the sliding cover. The positioning piece has a positioning groove for buckling combination of the buckle member of the sliding cover.

The positioning piece of the heat dissipation unit corresponds to the sliding cover. The sliding cover is moved to the positioning piece and is sleeved into the positioning piece, so that the buckle member of the sliding cover is buckled into the positioning groove. The positioning piece drives the heat dissipation fin module to abut against the hard disk card unit. At this time, the heat dissipation unit is fixed on the mounting frame and covers the hard disk card unit.

[0005] In particular, each side wall unit of the mounting frame has a side wall and a guide rail arranged on the side wall and extended from the side wall to the sliding cover. The sliding cover also has a sliding cover body and two sliding groove parts arranged on two opposite sides of the sliding cover body and sleeved with the guide rails of the side wall units.

[0006] In particular, the combined piece of the heat dissipation unit has a combined protrusion detachably inserted into the combined slot of the connecting frame module. When the combined protrusion of the combined piece is inserted into the combined slot of the connecting frame module and makes the heat dissipation fin module move to cover the hard disk card unit, the combined protrusion is limited by the connecting frame module.

[0007] In particular, the sliding cover also has a holding part arranged on the sliding cover body.

[0008] In particular, the mounting frame further comprises a fixing unit for fixing a mainboard of the mainboard unit to the base unit, the mainboard having a plurality of mounting holes, the fixing unit having a plurality of locking members, the locking members penetrating the base unit and locking into the mounting holes of the mainboard to fix the mainboard to the base unit.

[0009] In particular, the hard disk card unit is an M.2 expansion card.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the hard disk storage device with heat dissipation function has the following advantages. The combination piece of the heat dissipation unit is inserted into the combination slot of the connecting frame module, and the heat dissipation piece module is moved to cover the hard disk card unit. The positioning piece of the heat dissipation unit corresponds to the design of the sliding cover. The buckle member of the sliding cover can buckle the positioning groove of the positioning piece. As long as the sliding cover is moved in the direction of the positioning piece and the sliding cover is sleeved into the positioning piece, the buckle member of the sliding cover is buckled into the positioning groove, and the positioning piece drives the heat dissipation piece module to abut against the hard disk card unit. The heat dissipation unit is fixed to the mounting frame and covers the hard disk card unit, effectively achieving tool-free assembly operation. Furthermore, the heat dissipation piece unit covers and abuts against the hard disk card unit, effectively performing heat dissipation operation on the hard disk card unit.
