Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer chassis technology, and in particular to a quick-release support structure for a GPU bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, some graphics card brackets (also called GPU brackets) are installed in computer cases by sliding one end in. This requires a groove inside the computer case for the graphics card bracket to slide in. However, computer cases are made of stamped metal sheets, and it is not easy to create a groove inside the case. Furthermore, due to limitations in the thickness, material, and stamping process of the metal sheet, the strength and precision of the stamped groove are usually difficult to guarantee. Since graphics cards are usually heavy, if the stamped groove deforms after long-term use, it can cause the graphics card to vibrate during use, which is detrimental to the stable operation of the graphics card.

[0003] The question of how to more easily install a sliding groove inside a computer case to allow the graphics card bracket to slide in remains to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a quick-release support structure for a GPU bracket. The technical problem to be solved is how to more conveniently set a sliding groove inside the computer case so that the end of the graphics card bracket can slide in.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of this utility model is: a quick-release support structure for a GPU bracket, used to support a graphics card bracket, including a support component, a mounting part provided inside a computer case, and a first socket and a second socket spaced apart on the mounting part, both of which penetrate through the mounting part;

[0006] One side of the support member is used to abut against the mounting part, and a first hook and a second hook protrude on that side. The other side of the support member has a sliding groove for the end of the graphics card bracket to slide in and out.

[0007] The first hook is bent at the end to form a first hook hanging part. The first hook is used to pass through the first insertion hole when the support is against the mounting part, so that after the support slides up, the first hook hanging part hooks on the side of the mounting part away from the support.

[0008] The second hook can extend or retract into the support member elastically, so that when the first hook is hooked on the side of the mounting part opposite to the support member and the first hook abuts against the top side wall of the first insertion hole, the second hook can extend elastically out of the support member, extend into the second insertion hole, and hook onto the bottom side wall of the second insertion hole.

[0009] Furthermore, the support member is provided with two first hooks, and the second hook is located between the two first hooks. The mounting part is provided with a first insertion hole corresponding to each first hook. The first hooks of the two first hooks are used to hook onto the side of the mounting part opposite to the support member at the same time.

[0010] Furthermore, the first hook portion has a rib protruding on the side facing the support member, and a limiting groove is formed on the mounting portion. The limiting groove is equal in width to the rib. When the first hook portion is hooked on the side of the mounting portion facing away from the support member, the rib slides into the limiting groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the second hook includes an elastic plate with its bottom end connected to the support member and its top end extending upward. The top end of the elastic plate protrudes in the direction opposite to the support member to form a second hook portion, which is used to hook onto the bottom side wall of the second insertion hole.

[0012] Furthermore, the support component is made of plastic.

[0013] Furthermore, a support plate is installed inside the computer chassis, and multiple mounting parts are arrayed on the support plate.

[0014] After adopting the above solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] (1) The end of the first hook is bent into a first hook part. The first hook is used to pass through the first insertion hole when the support is attached to the mounting part, so that after the support slides up, the first hook part hooks on the side of the mounting part facing away from the support. The second hook can elastically extend or retract into the support. When the first hook part hooks on the side of the mounting part facing away from the support and the first hook abuts against the top side wall of the first insertion hole, the second hook elastically extends out of the support and extends into the second insertion hole, hooking on the bottom side wall of the second insertion hole, thereby installing and fixing the support to the computer case. A groove is formed on the support for the end of the graphics card bracket to slide in and out, so that one end of the graphics card bracket can slide in and be installed. Thus, by quickly installing a support in the computer case, a groove is set on the support, so that the strength and precision of the groove are no longer limited by the thickness, material and stamping process of the metal plate of the computer case. It is possible to set a groove with higher strength and precision in the computer case for the end of the graphics card bracket to slide in and support the graphics card bracket.

[0016] (2) The support components can be replaced at any time to avoid the gap between the slide and the graphics card bracket becoming too large after long-term use, which would affect normal use. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] Unless otherwise expressly defined, the use of directional terms such as "center," "lateral," "longitudinal," "horizontal," "vertical," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise" in the claims, description, and accompanying drawings of this invention is merely for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the specific scope of protection of this invention.

[0027] A quick-release support structure for a GPU bracket, such as Figure 1-7As shown, the support bracket 1 for supporting the graphics card includes a support member 2. A mounting part 4 is provided inside the computer case 3. The mounting part 4 is formed on the computer case 3, or it can be formed on a component added to the computer case 3. Specifically, in this embodiment, a support plate 15 is installed inside the computer case 3. The support plate 15 is long and narrow, and its two ends are fixed to the opposite side walls inside the computer case 3, so that a hard drive installation area 16 is separated in the part located on one side of the support plate 15 inside the computer case 3. In this embodiment, in order to fix multiple graphics cards, it is preferable that multiple mounting parts 4 are provided. Multiple mounting parts 4 are arranged in an array on the support plate 15. The side of the support plate 15 facing away from the hard drive installation area 16 also forms a cable routing groove 17 for accommodating cables.

[0028] The mounting part 4 is provided with a first socket 5 and a second socket 6 spaced apart, both of which pass through the mounting part 4; one side of the support member 2 is used to abut against the mounting part 4, and a first hook 7 and a second hook 8 protrude on that side; the other side of the support member 2 forms a sliding groove 9 for the end of the graphics card bracket 1 to slide in and out; the end of the first hook 7 is bent into a first hook portion 10, which is used to pass through the first socket 5 when the support member 2 abuts against the mounting part 4, so that after the support member 2 slides up, the first hook portion 10 hooks onto the side of the mounting part 4 opposite to the support member 2, at which time the forward and backward movement of the support member 2 is restricted, and it can only move up and down; the first hook 7 is used to abut against the mounting part 4, and the second hook 8 protrude on that side; the third hook 9 is used to abut against the mounting part 4, and the second hook 8 protrude on that side; the fourth hook 9 is used to abut against the mounting part 4, and the second hook 8 protrude on that side; the fifth hook 9 is used to abut against the mounting part 4, and the second hook 8 protrude on that side; the sixth hook 9 is used to abut against the mounting part 4, and the second hook 9 ... The second hook 8 can elastically extend or retract into the support member 2. When the first hook 10 is hooked on the side of the mounting part 4 opposite to the support member 2, and the first hook 7 abuts against the top side wall of the first insertion hole 5, the upward movement of the support member 2 is restricted. The second hook 8 elastically extends out of the support member 2, extends into the second insertion hole 6, and hooks onto the bottom side wall of the second insertion hole 6. By springing the second hook 8 into the second insertion hole 6, the downward movement of the support member 2 is restricted, so that the support member 2 is fixed on the mounting part 4. When the support member 2 needs to be replaced, it is only necessary to push the second hook 8 out of the second insertion hole 6 and then slide the support member 2 down to remove the support member 2 from the mounting part 4.

[0029] To further enhance the fixing effect and prevent the support member 2 from tilting up at the location where the second hook 8 is set, causing the second hook 8 to exit the second insertion hole 6 and resulting in the support member 2 falling off, it is preferable in this embodiment that the support member 2 is provided with two first hooks 7, the second hook 8 is located between the two first hooks 7, and the mounting part 4 is provided with a first insertion hole 5 corresponding to each first hook 7. The first hook part 10 of the two first hooks 7 is used to hook onto the side of the mounting part 4 opposite to the support member 2 at the same time.

[0030] To enhance the fixation of the support member 2 in the left-right direction, the first hook part 10 has a rib 11 protruding on the side facing the support member 2, and a limiting groove 12 is formed on the mounting part 4. The limiting groove 12 is equal in width to the rib 11. When the first hook part 10 is hooked on the side of the mounting part 4 facing away from the support member 2, the rib 11 slides into the limiting groove 12.

[0031] To simplify the structure and reduce manufacturing costs, in this embodiment, the support member 2 is preferably made of plastic and integrally molded. The second hook 8 includes an elastic plate 13 with its bottom end connected to the support member 2 and its top end extending upward. The top end of the elastic plate 13 protrudes in the direction opposite to the support member 2 to form a second hook portion 14, which is used to hook onto the bottom side wall of the second insertion hole 6.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the design of this case. All equivalent changes made based on the key design of this case shall fall within the protection scope of this case.
