[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0033] This application provides a modular slot structure network card mounting bracket, which solves the problem that traditional network card mounting brackets usually adopt an integrated design, with the connection between the network card and the mounting bracket fixed and located inside the device casing. Therefore, it is difficult to flexibly replace and upgrade the network card interface module. When it is necessary to replace the network card interface module of different specifications or functions, it is often necessary to disassemble the device and then replace the entire mounting bracket, which is costly and complicated.

[0034] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0035] Example 1:

[0036] This utility model discloses a modular slot structure network card mounting bracket, according to the attached... Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a mounting bracket housing 1, a card holder 2, a motherboard bracket 3, a modular socket 4, several sets of network card interface sockets 5, and a locking unit 7.

[0037] The mounting bracket housing 1 serves as the external support structure for the entire network card mounting bracket, providing an installation base and protection for the internal components.

[0038] The card holder 2 is mounted on the mounting bracket housing 1 to accommodate and position the modular socket 4, providing installation space and guidance for the modular socket 4.

[0039] During assembly, the modular socket 4 is inserted into the card slot 2 for initial positioning.

[0040] The motherboard bracket 3 is located inside the housing 1 of the mounting bracket, and a motherboard connector 31 is provided on it. The motherboard connector 31 is used to connect with the modular socket 4 to realize the electrical connection between the motherboard and the modular socket 4.

[0041] The modular socket 4 has a power strip slot 41 and a locking hole 42. The power strip slot 41 is used to make an electrical connection with the main board power strip 31, and the locking hole 42 is used to cooperate with the locking unit 7 to limit and fix the modular socket 4.

[0042] The network card interface socket 5 is located on the modular socket 4 and is used to connect external network cables to realize the input and output of network signals.

[0043] The locking unit 7 is placed between the fixed frame housing 1 and the card seat 2 to limit and fix the modular socket 4, preventing the modular socket 4 from loosening or falling off during use.

[0044] Example 2:

[0045] This utility model discloses a modular slot structure network card mounting bracket, according to the attached... Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a mounting bracket housing 1, a card holder 2, a motherboard bracket 3, a modular socket 4, several sets of network card interface sockets 5, and a locking unit 7.

[0046] Card holder 2 is mounted on the housing 1 of the mounting bracket;

[0047] The motherboard bracket 3 is located inside the mounting bracket housing 1, and the motherboard bracket 3 is provided with a motherboard connector 31, which is located inside the card slot 2.

[0048] Modular socket 4 is attached to the inside of card slot 2 and connects to motherboard socket 31;

[0049] Several sets of network card interface sockets 5 are all located on the modular socket 4;

[0050] The locking unit 7 is located between the mounting bracket housing 1 and the card holder 2 and is used to limit the position of the modular socket 4.

[0051] The modular socket 4 has a locking hole 42. The locking unit 7 includes a guide post 71, an adjusting block 72, a locking rod 73, a lead screw 74, and a rotating handle 741. The guide post 71 provides a sliding track for the adjusting block 72; the adjusting block 72 is movably engaged with the guide post 71 and can slide along the guide post 71; the locking rod 73 is set on the adjusting block 72, and when the adjusting block 72 slides, the locking rod 73 can be movably inserted into the locking hole 42 of the modular socket 4 to lock the modular socket 4; the lead screw 74 is threadedly connected to the adjusting block 72, and rotating the lead screw 74 allows the adjusting block 72 to slide along the guide post 71; the rotating handle 741 is set on the lead screw 74 to facilitate the user to rotate the lead screw 74.

[0052] When it is necessary to lock the modular socket 4, rotate the screw 74 by turning the handle 741, so that the adjusting block 72 slides along the guide post 71, and drives the locking rod 73 to be inserted into the locking hole 42 of the modular socket 4 to complete the locking.

[0053] When it is necessary to disassemble the modular socket 4, rotate the handle 741 in the opposite direction to make the adjusting block 72 slide in the opposite direction, thereby pulling the locking rod 73 out of the locking hole 42, and the modular socket 4 can be removed from the card holder 2. The operation is convenient.

[0054] The network card interface socket 5 has a panel 6 on its outer side. The panel 6 serves to protect the network card interface socket 5 and enhance its appearance. At the same time, a rubber ring 61 is movably engaged between the panel 6 and the mounting bracket housing 1. The rubber ring 61 provides cushioning and sealing to prevent dust and moisture from entering.

[0055] After the network card interface socket 5 is installed, the panel 6 is installed in place, so that the rubber ring 61 is snapped between the panel 6 and the mounting bracket housing 1.

[0056] The mounting bracket housing 1 is provided with a second support frame 12 for protecting the rotating handle 741, and a first support frame 11 for protecting the panel 6. The first support frame 11 protects the side of the panel 6; the second support frame 12 can prevent the rotating handle 741 from being accidentally touched and rotated, thus preventing the modular socket 4 from being accidentally unlocked.

[0057] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.
