Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage box technology, and in particular to a ruggedized laptop storage box. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of information technology, especially in demanding fields such as military, industry, and scientific research, the requirements for computer equipment are becoming increasingly stringent. Rugged laptops, in particular, have become core equipment in many professional fields due to their ability to withstand harsh environments such as high temperature, high humidity, and vibration. Rugged laptops are typically used in high-risk work environments, requiring high durability, stability, and reliability. To ensure the safety of rugged laptops during transportation, they are usually placed in sealed storage boxes.

[0003] Existing sealed storage enclosures typically employ a single-layer structure and incorporate shock-absorbing materials, such as damping foam, inside to prevent damage to ruggedized laptops from external impacts. These damping foams usually have multiple pre-set grooves to accommodate the shape of the ruggedized laptop and its accessories, ensuring proper securing and protection of the laptop and related components, thus protecting them from external factors during transportation and storage.

[0004] However, existing sealed enclosure designs typically require ruggedized laptops to be stored separately from their individual components. This not only increases the complexity of storage and retrieval but also leads to operational inconvenience. Storage of ruggedized laptops usually requires disassembling or separating individual components, making the process cumbersome. Especially in emergency situations, users need to quickly assemble and activate the ruggedized laptop, but because the device must be removed from the sealed enclosure and the components reassembled before each use, this design significantly increases response time and severely impacts the actual efficiency of ruggedized laptops.

[0005] Therefore, how to enable existing sealed storage enclosures to protect ruggedized laptops while keeping them in a combined state for easy and quick access has become a pressing technical challenge. Utility Model Content

[0006] The main objective of this invention is to provide a storage case for ruggedized laptops, aiming to allow existing sealed storage cases to protect the ruggedized laptop while keeping it in a combined state for easy and quick access.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a reinforced laptop storage case, comprising:

[0008] Box body;

[0009] A lower liner, located within the housing, is provided with a first limiting groove for storing a power transformer; and

[0010] An upper inner liner is disposed within the casing and stacked above the lower inner liner. The upper inner liner has a second limiting groove for storing the ruggedized laptop. The upper inner liner also has a first extension hole for the power transformer's upper connection terminal to extend out, facilitating connection to an external power source. The upper inner liner also has a second extension hole for the power transformer's upper output terminal to extend out, facilitating power supply to the ruggedized laptop. The lower inner liner also has a third limiting groove, within which a cable winder is disposed. The cable harness of the power transformer connected to the external power source is wound around the cable winder.

[0011] In one embodiment of this application, the upper liner and / or lower liner is foam cotton.

[0012] In one embodiment of this application, the box body is provided with a sealing cover that can seal the box body, and a sealing ring is provided between the sealing cover and the box body.

[0013] In one embodiment of this application, the box body is provided with a carrying handle on the outside.

[0014] In one embodiment of this application, the box body is provided with a locking member that can lock the sealing cover onto the box body.

[0015] In one embodiment of this application, the sealing cover is provided with a deformation part. When the sealing cover is placed on the box body, squeezing the deformation part can expel the gas inside the box body, thereby improving the sealing performance of the box body.

[0016] In one embodiment of this application, the box body is further provided with a pressure equalization valve that can be opened or closed to balance the pressure inside and outside the box body.

[0017] In one embodiment of this application, the box body is provided with a threaded hole, the pressure equalizing valve is a screw, the screw is threaded into the threaded hole, and a sealing ring is provided on the inner side of the screw nut.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to explain this utility model and do not constitute a limitation on this utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in order to achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a reinforced laptop storage case, comprising:

[0025] Box body 10;

[0026] The lower inner liner 20 is disposed inside the box body 10, and the lower inner liner 20 is provided with a first limiting groove 21 for storing a power transformer; and

[0027] The upper inner liner 70 is disposed inside the box body 10 and stacked above the lower inner liner 20. The upper inner liner 70 is provided with a second limiting groove 71 for storing the ruggedized laptop. The upper inner liner 70 is also provided with a first extension hole 73 for the upper power transformer to extend out to facilitate connection with an external power source. The upper inner liner 70 is also provided with a second extension hole 72 for the upper output end of the power transformer to extend out to facilitate power supply to the ruggedized laptop.

[0028] Specifically, Example 1

[0029] A ruggedized laptop storage case includes a case body 10, a lower inner liner 20, and an upper inner liner 70.

[0030] The enclosure body 10 is a rigid outer shell structure used to protect the internal components from external impacts, vibrations, or pressure. The enclosure body 10 is made of impact-resistant materials, such as ABS plastic, aluminum alloy, or high-strength composite materials. The internal space of the enclosure body 10 is divided into two main areas by a lower inner liner 20 and an upper inner liner 70.

[0031] The lower liner 20 is disposed inside the enclosure body 10. The lower liner 20 is made of a flexible or semi-rigid cushioning material, such as EVA foam or high-density rubber, to provide protection for the equipment stored therein. The lower liner 20 is provided with a first limiting groove 21 for storing a power transformer. The shape of the first limiting groove 21 matches the shape of the power transformer, and can prevent the power transformer from shifting its position or being bumped when the enclosure moves by wrapping and limiting the various surfaces of the power transformer.

[0032] An upper inner liner 70 is disposed within the housing body 10 and stacked on top of the lower inner liner 20. The upper inner liner 70 is also made of a material with flexible protective properties. The upper inner liner 70 has a second retaining groove 71 for storing a ruggedized laptop. The shape of the second retaining groove 71 matches the shape of the ruggedized laptop, fixing its position to prevent damage from external forces. The bottom and side walls of the second retaining groove 71 may be provided with reinforced shock-absorbing pads to further enhance the protection of the laptop.

[0033] To facilitate connection to an external power source and a ruggedized laptop when stored, the upper inner liner 70 is provided with a first protruding hole 73 and a second protruding hole 72. The position and size of the first protruding hole 73 correspond to the electrical terminal on the power transformer, allowing the electrical terminal on the power transformer to protrude externally. This electrical terminal serves as a power plug, thus facilitating connection to an external power source. The position and size of the second protruding hole 72 correspond to the output terminal of the power transformer, allowing the output terminal of the power transformer to protrude and connect to the ruggedized laptop, enabling portable power supply. The edges of the first and second protruding holes 73 and 72 can be further reinforced or softened to prevent wear or damage to the connecting cables. Both the upper inner liner 70 and the lower inner liner 20 are removable and placed inside the storage box.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] An improved rugged laptop case, similar to Embodiment 1 above, differs in that: the first limiting groove 21 of the lower inner liner 20, in addition to storing the power transformer, is designed with a multi-functional slot that can simultaneously accommodate spare cables or small peripheral components. An adjustable fixing device, such as Velcro or flexible straps, is provided in the second limiting groove 71 of the upper inner liner 70, allowing the case to be compatible with rugged laptops of different thicknesses or shapes. The diameters of the first protruding hole 73 and the second protruding hole 72 can be adjusted according to the size of different power cord interfaces to meet diverse connection needs.

[0036] By adopting the above technical solution, the layered protection and limiting design of the lower inner liner 20 and the upper inner liner 70 effectively prevents damage to ruggedized laptops and power transformers from external impacts, vibrations, or movement. The first protruding hole 73 and the second protruding hole 72 of the upper inner liner 70 allow for convenient power connection and operation even when the device is stored, eliminating the need for frequent disassembly and greatly improving portability and efficiency. This allows existing sealed storage enclosures to effectively protect ruggedized laptops and their accessories while improving storage space utilization and ease of use.

[0037] In one embodiment of this application, the lower inner liner 20 is further provided with a third limiting groove 22, and a winding device is provided in the third limiting groove 22, and the wire harness of the power transformer connected to the external power supply is wound on the winding device.

[0038] Specifically, the lower inner liner 20 is also provided with a third limiting groove 22, which is used to accommodate the cable reel, and the cable reel provides storage and management functions for the power transformer connection harness.

[0039] The cable reel is installed within the third limiting groove 22. The reel features an automatic spring-loaded design, allowing the cable bundle to be pulled out during use and automatically wound back into the reel when not in use, maintaining a neat appearance. The third limiting groove 22 is designed to fit tightly against the reel's shape, ensuring it does not shift or loosen during transport. A locking structure on the reel fixes the length of the pulled-out cable bundle, allowing users to adjust the length according to their needs, thus improving ease of use. The cable reel in this application is an existing component, and its detailed structure will not be described in detail here.

[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the rugged laptop storage case achieves orderly storage of the power transformer cable harness by setting a third limiting groove 22 and a cable reel in the lower inner lining 20, avoiding cable tangling or damage, and improving the neatness of device storage and the service life of cables. The automatic spring-loaded and locking function of the cable reel makes cable retrieval and storage more convenient, while improving the efficiency of device use. Through the precise partitioning design of the first limiting groove 21, the second limiting groove 71, and the third limiting groove 22, the space utilization between the power transformer, the rugged laptop, and the cables is optimized, improving the overall protective performance and functionality of the storage case.

[0041] In one embodiment of this application, the upper inner lining 70 and / or the lower inner lining 20 are foam cotton.

[0042] Using the above technical solution, the foam material has high flexibility and resilience, effectively absorbing external impacts and vibrations, reducing damage to power transformers, ruggedized laptops, and other equipment. At the same time, the foam material has a low density and is lightweight, not significantly increasing the overall weight of the storage box, making it easy to carry and move.

[0043] In one embodiment of this application, the box body 10 is provided with a sealing cover 30 that can seal the box body 10, and a sealing rubber ring is provided between the sealing cover 30 and the box body 10.

[0044] Specifically, a sealing ring is provided at the contact point between the sealing cover 30 and the box body 10. The sealing ring is made of an elastic material, such as silicone or EPDM rubber, which can form a reliable seal when the sealing cover 30 is closed.

[0045] The sealing ring can have an O-shape, D-shape, or other suitable shape. It is used to fill the gap between the sealing cap 30 and the box body 10 when compressed, thereby preventing external liquids, gases, or dust from entering the box. The sealing ring is fixed in the corresponding slot of the box body 10 or the sealing cap 30 through an embedded design, providing good stability and durability. After closing, the sealing cap 30 is tightened by an external snap-locking structure or a rotating lock to compress the sealing ring, achieving a complete seal inside the box.

[0046] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting a sealing cover 30 on the case body 10 to seal the case body 10, and setting a sealing ring between the sealing cover 30 and the case body 10, this design can significantly improve the sealing performance of the ruggedized laptop storage case. The sealing ring provides effective waterproof, dustproof, and gasproof sealing capabilities, preventing external moisture, dust, and other particles from entering the case interior, thereby providing a safe storage environment for ruggedized laptops, power transformers, and other storage devices.

[0047] In one embodiment of this application, the box body 10 is provided with a carrying handle 60 on the outside.

[0048] By adopting the above technical solution, a carrying handle 60 is provided on the outside of the box, which facilitates the movement of the box body 10.

[0049] In one embodiment of this application, the box body 10 is provided with a locking member 50 that can lock the sealing cover 30 onto the box body 10.

[0050] By adopting the above technical solution, a locking member 50 is provided on the box body 10. When the sealing cover 30 is placed on the box body 10, the locking member 50 locks the sealing cover 30 and the box body 10 together, thereby improving the connection strength between the sealing cover 30 and the box body 10 and improving the sealing performance of the box body 10.

[0051] In one embodiment of this application, the sealing cover 30 is provided with a deformation part 31. When the sealing cover 30 is placed on the box body 10, the deformation part 31 is squeezed to expel the gas inside the box body 10, thereby improving the sealing performance of the box body 10.

[0052] Specifically, the deformable part 31 is a structure capable of elastic or controllable deformation, typically made of flexible or semi-flexible materials, such as deformable plastics. The specific shape of the deformable part 31 can be a protrusion, corrugation, folded structure, or other design capable of producing volume changes. The deformable part 31 is mounted on the sealing cover 30 and fixed in place by means of integral molding with the overall structure of the sealing cover 30.

[0053] When the sealing cap 30 is placed on the box body 10, the user can manually or mechanically squeeze the deformable part 31. The squeezing action causes the deformable part 31 to deform, and the pressure generated by the squeezing acts on the gas inside the box body 10, thereby driving the excess gas inside the box body 10 to be discharged from the box through the tiny gap of the sealing ring. After squeezing is completed, the deformable part 31 remains in a squeezed state under the action of atmospheric pressure. At this time, the sealing ring will be firmly attached to the sealing cap 30 and the box body 10 under the action of atmospheric pressure, thereby forming a good sealing environment.

[0054] By employing the above technical solution, the deformation section 31 can effectively expel excess gas inside the case body 10 during compression, thereby ensuring a stable negative pressure or zero pressure environment inside the case body 10. This allows the sealing ring to make a tighter contact with the sealing cover 30 and the case body 10 under atmospheric pressure, further improving waterproof, dustproof, and airtight performance. The design of the deformation section 31 facilitates the inspection of the sealing effect between the case body 10 and the sealing cover 30. When the negative pressure effect is not ideal, it indicates that there is a leakage point between the case body 10 and the sealing cover 30, making it convenient for users to replace the leak, thereby improving the safety of the reinforced laptop inside the case body 10.

[0055] In one embodiment of this application, the box body 10 is further provided with a pressure equalization valve 40 that can be opened or closed to balance the pressure inside and outside the box body 10.

[0056] Specifically, to further improve the performance of the enclosure, a pressure equalization valve 40 is provided on the enclosure body 10. The pressure equalization valve 40 can open before the sealing cover 30 needs to be opened to balance the internal and external pressures of the enclosure body 10, facilitating the opening of the sealing cover 30. The pressure equalization valve 40 is installed on the outer wall or side wall of the enclosure body 10. The pressure equalization valve 40 may include a valve body, an elastic seal, and a control mechanism. The valve body is fixed to the outer wall of the enclosure body by threads or embedding. The elastic seal is made of a flexible material, such as silicone or fluororubber, which can achieve a seal when closed.

[0057] The control mechanism for the equalizing valve 40 can be a manual knob, a push-button device, or an automatic sensing mechanism. The manual knob allows the user to manually open the equalizing valve 40 as needed to release the pressure inside the chamber, or to close the equalizing valve 40 to restore a sealed state.

[0058] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure equalizing valve 40 can first keep the pressure inside and outside the box body 10 the same when the sealing cover 30 needs to be opened, thereby reducing the resistance when opening the sealing cover 30. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0059] In one embodiment of this application, the box body 10 is provided with a threaded hole, the pressure equalizing valve 40 is a screw, the screw is threaded into the threaded hole, and a sealing ring is provided on the inner side of the screw nut. When the screw seals the threaded hole, the sealing ring abuts against the side wall of the box body 10.

[0060] Specifically, to balance the pressure inside and outside the chamber, threaded holes are provided on the side wall of the chamber body 10 for installing the pressure equalization valve 40. The pressure equalization valve 40 is a screw. The screw is made of metal or high-strength plastic, and its external thread structure matches the threaded hole, allowing it to be tightly connected to the threaded hole on the chamber body 10 through rotation. A sealing ring is provided on the side of the screw facing the chamber body 10. The sealing ring is made of an elastic material, such as silicone or fluororubber, which has excellent sealing performance and durability.

[0061] When the screw is screwed into the threaded hole and fully tightened, the sealing ring abuts against the screw and the housing body 10, thus forming a reliable seal to prevent external air, moisture, or dust from entering the housing, thereby maintaining the sealing performance of the housing body 10. When it is necessary to adjust the pressure balance between the inside and outside of the housing, the user can loosen or completely remove the screw by rotating it. The threaded hole then serves as a pressure equalization channel, allowing gas from outside the housing to enter the housing through the threaded hole, thereby achieving pressure balance.

[0062] Using the above technical solution, the screw is threaded into the threaded hole of the box body 10. The sealing ring inside the screw nut can tightly abut against the side wall of the box body 10 when the screw is fully tightened, effectively preventing external gas, moisture or dust from entering the box and ensuring the sealing performance of the box body 10. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0063] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
