Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solid-state drive technology, and in particular to a waterproof SSD. Background Technology

[0002] Solid-state drives (SSDs) are storage devices that use flash memory as the storage medium to replace traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). They read and write data via electronic signals, with no moving mechanical parts, thus offering advantages such as high speed, low power consumption, and shock resistance. They have become the mainstream storage solution for modern computers, servers, and mobile devices.

[0003] Patent CN222337917U discloses a modular SSD, comprising a SSD body with two symmetrically arranged grooves on its front surface. Each groove contains a slider, and the front surfaces of the sliders are respectively fixed with a first connector and a second connector. The sidewalls of the sliders each have grooves containing telescopic springs. While this patent achieves a hidden design by placing the button on the same horizontal plane as the sidewall of the SSD body and concealing it within the body, this design not only makes the SSD's appearance cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing but also reduces the risk of accidental button presses and provides better protection against accidental touches. However, in actual use, when the SSD is connected to external components, gaps can easily appear at the connection point, allowing liquid to seep into the SSD, causing moisture damage and affecting its normal operation.

[0004] Therefore, a waterproof SSD is needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing patents, where gaps easily appear at the connection between the SSD and external components during actual use, allowing liquid to seep into the SSD and cause moisture damage, thus affecting its normal use, this utility model provides a waterproof SSD.

[0006] The technical solution is as follows: A waterproof SSD solid-state drive includes a base plate, a protective cover, a mounting bracket, a memory module, a connector, a contact socket, a sealing strip, a connecting cable strip, and a silicone ring. The protective cover is on the top of the base plate, and the mounting bracket is installed on the top of the base plate. The memory module is mounted on the mounting bracket, and the connector is located on the right side of the mounting bracket. The contact socket is located on the right side of the memory module and is electrically connected to the memory module. A sealing strip is adhered to the bottom of the contact socket and is in close contact with the memory module. A connecting cable strip is located on the right side of the contact socket, and a silicone ring is adhered inside the connector.

[0007] As a further preferred embodiment, it also includes a guide plate, a slide rod, an extrusion seat, a support plate, and an elastic element. Guide plates are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the mounting base. An extrusion seat is slidably installed on the rear side of the mounting base, with the extrusion seat closely attached to the contact seat. Slide rods are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the extrusion seat, and the slide rods slide on the guide plates. Two support plates are fixedly connected to the right side of the mounting base, and an elastic element connects the support plates to the extrusion seat.

[0008] As a further preferred option, it also includes silicone corner protectors, with silicone corner protectors provided on all four corners of the protective cover.

[0009] As a further preferred option, a gasket is also included, with a gasket provided on the edge of the base plate, and the gasket is in close contact with the protective cover.

[0010] As a further preferred option, a baffle is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate.

[0011] As a further preferred option, the protective cover is made of aluminum alloy.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a waterproof SSD with the following advantages: 1. The sealing strip fits tightly with the memory module, blocking moisture from entering the circuit interface; the connector is inserted into the interface, causing the silicone ring to deform under pressure, filling the gap between the connector and the interface, blocking the liquid penetration path, thereby achieving the purpose of waterproofing and preventing moisture from entering the SSD and causing it to become damp and affect normal use.

[0013] 2. By pushing the squeezing seat to the right, the slide bar moves along the inclined groove of the guide plate, forcing the squeezing seat to lift upwards. The squeezing seat separates from the contact seat, releasing the clamping force on the memory module. The contact seat can then be lifted directly to remove the memory module from the mounting bracket, achieving quick disassembly. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, terms such as "setting," "installing," "connecting," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0021] Example 1: A waterproof SSD (Solid State Drive), please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-5 The system includes a base plate 1, a protective cover 2, a mounting base 4, a memory module 5, a connector 6, a contact seat 7, a sealing strip 701, a connecting cable strip 8, and a silicone ring 9. The base plate 1 is covered by the protective cover 2, which is made of aluminum alloy. The metal cover itself is corrosion-resistant, waterproof, and aids in heat dissipation, dissipating heat from the memory module and the main control chip through metal heat conduction. The mounting base 4 is mounted on the top of the base plate 1, and the memory module 5 is mounted on the mounting base 4. The connector 6 is located on the right side of the mounting base 4, and the contact seat 7 is located on the right side of the memory module 5. The contact seat 7 is electrically connected to the memory module 5, and the sealing strip 7 is adhered to the bottom of the contact seat 7. 01. The sealing strip 701 is in close contact with the memory module 5. A connecting cable 8 is provided on the right side of the contact seat 7. The connecting cable 8 is a flexible connecting cable. A silicone ring 9 is bonded inside the plug interface 6. Silicone corner pads 3 are provided on the four corners of the protective cover 2. The silicone corner pads 3 further buffer the impact of external force and fill the assembly tolerance to prevent water from seeping in from the corners. A gasket 15 is provided on the edge of the base plate 1. The gasket 15 is in close contact with the protective cover 2. After the protective cover 2 and the gasket 15 are pressed together, a sealed space is formed to block water vapor from entering. A baffle is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1 to limit the displacement of the mounting seat 4 and prevent misalignment during installation.

[0022] Before using the SSD, first use a tool to install the mounting bracket 4 on top of the base plate 1. Then, place the memory module 5 into the mounting bracket 4 and place the contact 7 on the right side of the memory module 5. Insert the connector 8 into the connector 6. At this time, the sealing strip 701 is tightly fitted with the memory module 5, preventing moisture from entering the circuit interface and completing the assembly of the SSD. Then, cover the protective cover 2. The gasket 15 on its edge is tightly fitted with the base plate 1 under pressure, forming an overall sealed structure. When using the SSD, when the connector is inserted into the connector 6 from the right side of the protective cover 2, the silicone ring 9 is deformed by pressure, filling the gap between the connector and the connector 6, thereby blocking the liquid penetration path. Through the above operations, the purpose of waterproofing is achieved, preventing moisture from entering the SSD and causing dampness, which would affect normal use.

[0023] Example 2: Based on Example 1, please refer to... Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 Guide plates 10 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the mounting base 4. An extrusion seat 12 is slidably provided on the rear side of the mounting base 4. The extrusion seat 12 is close to the contact seat 7. Slide rods 11 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the extrusion seat 12. The slide rods 11 slide on the guide plates 10. Two support plates 13 are fixedly connected to the right side of the mounting base 4. An elastic element 14 is connected between the support plates 13 and the extrusion seat 12.

[0024] When it is necessary to remove the memory module 5, first open the protective cover 2 to expose the memory module 5. Then push the pressing seat 12 to the right. The slide bar 11 moves along the inclined slide groove of the guide plate 10, forcing the pressing seat 12 to lift upward. The elastic element 14 deforms accordingly, and the pressing seat 12 separates from the contact seat 7, releasing the clamping force on the memory module 5. The contact seat 7 can be lifted directly to remove the memory module 5 from the mounting base 4, achieving quick disassembly. When it is necessary to reposition the memory module 5, align the memory module 5 with the slot of the mounting base 4 and insert it. Then, attach the contact seat 7 to the right side of the memory module 5. After ensuring that it is in place, release the pressing seat 12. The spring rebound pushes the slide bar 11 to move along the inclined slide groove of the guide plate 10. The pressing seat 12 presses down on the contact seat 7, and at the same time, the memory module 5 is fixed by friction, ensuring a stable circuit connection.
