Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hard disk technology, and in particular to a fast-cooling air-cooled M.2 solid-state drive. Background Technology

[0002] M.2 solid-state drives are small, lightweight, and high-performance storage devices. They are much smaller than traditional hard drives, saving a lot of space. They have a variety of interfaces, support high-speed PCIe channels, and have extremely fast read and write speeds when using the NVMe protocol, which can significantly improve system startup and software loading speeds. They are widely used in various devices such as laptops and desktops, bringing users an efficient and smooth user experience.

[0003] With the rapid development of data storage and hard drive technologies, M.2 hard drives have been widely used in mid-to-high-end markets such as computers and servers due to their significant advantages, including high speed, long lifespan, high shock and drop resistance, low power consumption, low weight, and low noise.

[0004] However, the heat dissipation problem of M.2 hard drives is quite prominent in the existing technology. Because of their much smaller size, heat is concentrated, and poor heat dissipation will cause heat to accumulate rapidly, causing the performance of M.2 solid-state drives to drop rapidly. The current main solution is to add heat sinks to M.2 hard drives to try to improve the heat dissipation effect, but given the high power consumption and heat generation of M.2 hard drives, this method is always difficult to meet the heat dissipation requirements.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new technical solution to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model aims to provide a technical solution that can solve the aforementioned problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fast-cooling air-cooled M.2 solid-state drive, comprising a hard drive body and a casing, wherein the hard drive body includes a connector for exchanging data with a device and a fixing part for fixing to the motherboard;

[0008] The housing has openings at both ends, the hard disk body is located inside the housing cavity, and both ends protrude outside the housing through the openings;

[0009] The inner cavity of the housing is also provided with a heat-conducting base plate placed on the hard disk body for heat transfer. The heat-conducting base plate is provided with heat dissipation fins, and multiple heat dissipation fins are arranged along the length of the heat-conducting base plate.

[0010] The upper end of the housing has several mounting holes, in which cooling fans are installed. Air inlets are provided on both sides of the length direction of the housing, and multiple air inlets are provided along the length direction of the housing.

[0011] The air inlet is located in the gap between adjacent heat dissipation fins, so that when the cooling fan is working, external air enters the housing through the air inlet, forms an airflow, passes between the heat dissipation fins, and is then discharged through the mounting port.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the housing includes an upper shell and a lower shell, and the upper shell and the lower shell are assembled and fixed. The upper shell and the lower shell have notches at both ends on opposite sides, and the two notches are combined to form an opening for the hard disk body to pass through.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: soft rubber plugs are provided on both sides of the lower end of the upper shell, and grooves are provided on both sides of the upper end of the lower shell. Soft rubber blocks are provided in the grooves, and fastening grooves corresponding to the soft rubber plugs are provided on the soft rubber blocks.

[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an anti-slip pad is provided on the notch, and the anti-slip pad is in close contact with the hard disk body.

[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model: long grooves covering all air inlets are provided on both sides of the housing, and dustproof nets are installed in the long grooves.

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this technical solution are as follows: the thermally conductive substrate absorbs the heat generated by the hard drive during operation and transfers it to the heat dissipation fins, which then dissipate the heat. At the same time, the operation of the cooling fan creates a negative pressure inside the housing, which in turn forms an airflow that enters the housing through the air inlet and is then discharged outward through the mounting port. The air inlet is located in the gap area between adjacent heat dissipation fins, allowing the airflow to pass through the gaps between the fins, quickly carrying away the heat dissipated by the heat dissipation fins and discharging it to the external environment. This improves heat dissipation efficiency, prevents heat accumulation, effectively controls the temperature of the hard drive, makes the performance of the hard drive more stable, and achieves a more ideal heat dissipation effect.

[0017] Furthermore, the casing provides physical protection for the hard drive itself, preventing it from colliding with other devices, ensuring its integrity, and avoiding damage.

[0018] Furthermore, the casing is divided into an upper shell and a lower shell. During assembly, a soft rubber plug is inserted into the fastening groove of a soft rubber block. The soft rubber plug is slightly larger than the fastening groove, so that the soft rubber plug and the soft rubber block are squeezed against each other during insertion. This ensures that the soft rubber plug is firmly connected to the soft rubber block after insertion, thus assembling and fixing the upper shell and the lower shell. When it is necessary to disassemble the upper shell and the lower shell, simply apply force to pull the soft rubber plug out of the fastening groove, which is convenient for maintenance or replacement of hard drives of different specifications.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0027] The M.2 hard drive includes a connection part for connecting to a computer to exchange data and a fixing part for fixing itself to the motherboard.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-3 A heat dissipation structure for an M.2 solid-state drive includes a hard drive body 1 and a housing 2. The hard drive body 1 includes a connector 3 for exchanging data with a device and a fixing part 4 for fixing to the motherboard.

[0029] The housing 2 has openings at both ends, and the hard disk body 1 is located inside the housing 2, with both ends protruding outside the housing 2 through the openings. When installing the hard disk body 1, the plug-in part 3 is first inserted into the interface on the motherboard at an angle, and then the hard disk body 1 is flattened. The hard disk body 1 is then fixedly installed by the cooperation of the bolts and the fixing part 4.

[0030] The inner cavity of the housing 2 is also provided with a heat-conducting base plate 5 placed on the hard disk body 1 for heat transfer. The heat-conducting base plate 5 is provided with heat dissipation fins 6, and multiple heat dissipation fins 6 are arranged along the length of the heat-conducting base plate 5.

[0031] The upper end of the housing 2 is provided with several mounting ports 7, and a cooling fan 8 is installed in the mounting port 7. Air inlets 9 are provided on both sides of the length direction of the housing 2, and multiple air inlets 9 are provided along the length direction of the housing 2.

[0032] The air inlet 9 is located in the gap area between adjacent heat dissipation fins 6, so that when the cooling fan 8 is working, external air enters the housing 2 through the air inlet 9 to form an airflow, and after passing through the gap between the heat dissipation fins 6, it is discharged through the mounting port 7.

[0033] Specifically, the heat-conducting base plate 5 absorbs the heat generated by the hard drive body 1 during operation through heat transfer and transfers the heat to the heat dissipation fins 6 above. The heat dissipation fins 6 then dissipate the heat. At the same time, the cooling fan 8 installed in the mounting port 7 starts to work, creating a negative pressure inside the housing 2. This causes external air to enter the housing 2 through the air inlet 9 and then be discharged outward through the mounting port 7. The position of the air inlet 9 corresponds to the gap area between adjacent heat dissipation fins 6, allowing the airflow to pass through the gap between the heat dissipation fins 6, quickly carrying away the heat dissipated by the heat dissipation fins 6 and discharging it to the external environment. This improves heat dissipation efficiency, prevents heat accumulation, effectively controls the temperature of the hard drive body 1, makes the performance of the hard drive body 1 more stable, and achieves a more ideal heat dissipation effect.

[0034] Furthermore, the casing 2 can also provide physical protection for the hard drive body 1, preventing the hard drive body 1 from colliding with other devices, ensuring the integrity of the hard drive body 1, and preventing it from being damaged.

[0035] The cooling fan 8 is electrically connected to the device motherboard, specifically through a lead-out connecting wire (not shown in the figure).

[0036] Furthermore, long slots covering all air inlets 9 are provided on both sides of the housing 2, and dustproof nets 10 are installed in the long slots.

[0037] Specifically, by adding the dust filter 10, when external air enters the housing 2 through the air inlet 9, the dust in the air is intercepted and filtered, thereby preventing dust from entering the housing 2 and accumulating on the hard drive body 1, which would affect the performance of the hard drive body 1.

[0038] Furthermore, the housing 2 includes an upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12, and the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 are assembled and fixed. The upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 have notches 13 at both ends on opposite sides, and the two notches 13 are combined to form an opening for the hard disk body 1 to pass through.

[0039] Specifically, the housing 2 is divided into an upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12, and the two can be assembled and fixed, so as to facilitate the disassembly of the housing 2, so as to facilitate the maintenance of the hard drive body 1 and the replacement of hard drive body 1 with different specifications.

[0040] A further notch 13 is provided with an anti-slip pad 14, and the anti-slip pad 14 is in close contact with the hard disk body 1.

[0041] Specifically, when the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are assembled onto the hard drive body 1, the anti-slip pads 14 provided in the notches 13 of the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 will be squeezed during the assembly process, so that the anti-slip pads 14 are tightly attached to the hard drive body 1, thereby preventing the hard drive body 1 from becoming loose.

[0042] Furthermore, soft rubber plugs 15 are provided on both sides of the lower end of the upper shell 11, and grooves are provided on both sides of the upper end of the lower shell 12. Soft rubber blocks 16 are provided in the grooves, and fastening grooves 17 corresponding to the soft rubber plugs 15 are provided on the soft rubber blocks 16.

[0043] Specifically, during the assembly of the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12, the soft rubber plugs 15 provided on both sides are inserted into the fastening grooves 17 of the soft rubber block 16. The size of the soft rubber plug 15 is slightly larger than the fastening groove 17, so that the soft rubber plug 15 and the soft rubber block 16 are squeezed against each other during the insertion process. Thus, after the soft rubber plug 15 is inserted, it is firmly connected to the soft rubber block 16 to assemble and fix the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12. When it is necessary to disassemble the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12, simply apply force to pull the soft rubber plug 15 out of the fastening groove 17.

[0044] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
