Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computers, and in particular to a non-disassembly structure for a laptop casing. Background Technology

[0002] Laptops, also known as portable computers or notebooks, are small, lightweight personal computers designed for mobile work and personal use. The tamper-proof design of their casing is crucial because laptops contain a large amount of sensitive data and important information. The tamper-proof structure prevents unauthorized personnel from disassembling the casing, effectively protecting data from unauthorized access or leakage. In terms of tamper-proofing, manufacturers often use unusual screws to increase the difficulty of disassembly, deterring potential tampering. However, the corresponding screwdrivers can still be purchased online or custom-made, meaning that relying solely on unusual screws for tamper-proofing is often insufficient. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the problem that using irregularly shaped screws in the process of tamper-proof design of laptop casings can increase the difficulty of disassembling the casing and deter some non-official repairmen from attempting to disassemble it, various types of screwdrivers can now be purchased directly or customized on online shopping platforms. As a result, relying solely on irregularly shaped screws for tamper-proof design is often not ideal.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a laptop shell anti-disassembly structure, including an upper mounting component, an upper hole-covering component, a lower mounting component, and a lower hole-covering component; the upper mounting component is provided at the upper end of the upper mounting component; the lower mounting component is provided at the lower end of the upper mounting component; and the lower hole-covering component is provided at the lower end of the lower mounting component.

[0005] Preferably, the upper mounting assembly and the lower mounting assembly are used to protect the internal components of the computer. The upper and lower hole-covering assemblies work together to prevent the bolts from being exposed on the outside, thus preventing disassembly. At the same time, the lower hole-covering assembly can selectively seal the data interface to prevent data theft.

The lower ends of screws that are clearance-fitted with the second threaded holes 204 are clearance-fitted with the inner plate 101, thereby fixing the inner plate 101 and the outer plate 201 together. The outer plate 201 covers the first threaded hole 104 on the inner plate 101; the touchpad slot 203 is used to install the touchpad.

[0025] Please see Figure 4-6In this embodiment, the lower mounting component 3 includes an inner frame 301, an inner air inlet 302, a USB slot 303, a third threaded hole 304, an inner power slot 305, an inner air outlet 306, and a hollow positioning post 307. The upper end of the threaded sleeve 105 is provided with the inner frame 301. The inner frame 301 has an inner air inlet 302. USB slots 303 are provided on both sides of the inner air inlet 302. The inner air inlet 302 is used to supply air to the air-cooling system, the inner air outlet 306 is used to supply heat to the air-cooling system, the hollow positioning post 307 is connected to the docking groove 405, and the inner power slot 305 is used to insert power cords and network cables. The inner air inlet 302 has a third threaded hole 304 around its perimeter, and the screw that is clearance-fitted with the third threaded hole 304 continues to clearance-fit with the threaded sleeve 105 after passing through the third threaded hole 304, so as to fix the inner plate 101 and the inner frame 301 together; the rear end of the inner air inlet 302 has an inner power slot 305; both sides of the inner power slot 305 have inner air outlets 306; and hollow positioning posts 307 are fixed at the four corners of the inner frame 301. The lower vent assembly 4 includes an outer frame 401, an external air inlet 402, a sliding groove 403, a slider 404, a mating groove 405, a threaded groove 406, an external power supply groove 407, and an external air outlet 408. An outer frame 401, which encloses the inner frame 301, is slidably connected to the outer side of the inner frame 301. An external air inlet 402 is provided on the outer frame 401. Sliding grooves 403 are provided on both sides of the external air inlet 402. Sliding sliders 404 are slidably connected within each sliding groove 403. The external air inlet 402 is used to supply air to the air-cooling system, and the external air outlet 408 is used to supply heat to the air-cooling system. When data transfer from the computer is prohibited, inserting the slider 404 into the sliding groove 403 can seal the USB slot 303 to prevent others from copying data. The inner frame 301 has four corner joints 405; the lower end of each joint 405 has a threaded groove 406, and the bolts that are clearance-fitted with the first threaded hole 104 continue to be clearance-fitted with the threaded groove 406 after passing through the first threaded hole 104 and the hollow positioning post 307, so as to fix the inner plate 101 and the outer frame 401 together; the rear end of the external air inlet 402 has an external power supply slot 407; both sides of the external power supply slot 407 have external air outlets 408. The external power supply slot 407 is used to insert power cords and network cables.

[0026] During installation, the inner plate 101 and the inner frame 301 can be fixed together by the screw that is in clearance fit with the third threaded hole 304 and continues to be in clearance fit with the threaded sleeve 105 after passing through the third threaded hole 304.

[0027] Subsequently, the bolts that are clearance-fitted with the first threaded hole 104 continue to be clearance-fitted with the threaded groove 406 after passing through the first threaded hole 104 and the hollow positioning post 307, so as to fix the inner plate 101 and the outer frame 401 together, and make the outer frame 401 fit over the inner frame 301 to cover the third threaded hole 304.

[0028] Next, the lower end of the screw that is clearance-fitted with the second threaded hole 204 is clearance-fitted with the inner plate 101, so that the inner plate 101 and the outer plate 201 are fixed together, and the outer plate 201 covers the first threaded hole 104.

[0029] Finally, the keyboard keys are installed on the keyboard key support bar 103, and the touchpad is installed in the touchpad slot 203 to cover the second threaded hole 204, thereby hiding all the screws on the shell to prevent unofficial repair personnel who are not familiar with the structure of this laptop from disassembling the shell. In addition, the use of irregularly shaped screws can greatly improve the anti-disassembly performance of the shell.

[0030] If the laptop contains confidential files, before the outer frame 401 is placed over the inner frame 301, the slider 404 can be inserted into the slot 403 to seal the USB slot 303, thereby preventing others from copying the data and ensuring data security.

[0031] By implementing the above steps, the screw-hiding mechanism and data interface blocking mechanism can be set up to hide all the screws on the outer shell, preventing unauthorized repair personnel unfamiliar with the laptop's structure from disassembling the shell. Combined with the use of irregularly shaped screws, the anti-tamper performance of the outer shell can be greatly improved. Furthermore, the computer's data interface can be blocked when there are confidential files in the computer's memory to prevent others from copying the data.

[0032] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
