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.

[0025] This utility model embodiment provides a server handle bar, such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, the server handle includes a handle base plate 1, a handle top plate 2, and a handle panel 3. The left and right sides of the handle base plate 1 are respectively provided with sliding joints 11 for sliding with a server rack (not shown in the attached diagram). The handle base plate 1 is also provided with a left support slide 4, a middle support slide 5, and a right support slide 6, which are located between the two sliding joints 11 and spaced apart sequentially. The left support slide 4, the middle support slide 5, and the right support slide 6 are parallel to each other. The handle top plate 2 is located on the left support slide... The top of the frame 4, the middle support slide 5 and the right support slide 6 are parallel to the bottom plate 1 of the handle strip; the handle strip panel 3 is rotatably mounted on the front side of the bottom plate 1 of the handle strip through a damping rotating connector (not shown in the figure), and the handle strip panel 3 flips up and down relative to the bottom plate 1 of the handle strip to cover the left support slide 4, the middle support slide 5 and the right support slide 6; the front left and right sides of the top plate 2 of the handle strip are respectively provided with mounting parts 7, and the mounting parts 7 are provided with locking components for locking with the server rack (not shown in the figure).

[0026] The server handle strip of this embodiment, through the structural design of the handle strip base plate 1, handle strip top plate 2, handle strip panel 3, and the left support slide 4, middle support slide 5, and right support slide 6, can provide good protection for the hard drive. The handle strip panel 3 is flexible to operate, can be opened and closed, and facilitates the quick installation or removal of the hard drive. The operation is simple and convenient. A damping rotation connector (not shown in the figure) is used, such as a damping shaft. The sliding part 11 can be adapted to slide onto the server rack (not shown in the figure), which facilitates the insertion or removal of the handle strip base plate 1. The locking component locks the server handle strip and the server rack (not shown in the figure) together, ensuring installation stability.

[0027] The left support slide 4 and the middle support slide 5 have a first gap, and the middle support slide 5 and the right support slide 6 have a second gap, with the first gap and the second gap being the same. The spaces formed between the left support slide 4 and the middle support slide 5, as well as between the middle support slide 5 and the right support slide 6, are used to accommodate and install hard drives, meeting the needs of multi-hard drive configurations.

[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, the front ends of the left support slide 4, the middle support slide 5 and the right support slide 6 are respectively provided with a plurality of threaded mounting holes 101, and the handle strip panel 3 is provided with a plurality of through holes 301. The plurality of through holes 301 correspond one-to-one with the threaded mounting holes 101 on the left support slide 4, the middle support slide 5 and the right support slide 6. The corresponding through holes 301 and threaded mounting holes 101 are used for screws to be inserted for fastening, thereby further fixing the handle strip panel 3 by screws.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 6As shown, the handle panel 3 is divided into a left panel 31 and a right panel 32. The left panel 31 covers the left support slide 4, the middle support slide 5, and the area between them. The right panel 32 covers the middle support slide 5, the right support slide 6, and the area between them, achieving the purpose of area-specific shielding and protection. The lower side of the left panel 31 is rotatably connected to the left side of the front side of the handle base plate 1 via a first damping pivot (not shown in the figure), and the lower side of the right panel 32 is rotatably connected to the right side of the front side of the handle base plate 1 via a second damping pivot (not shown in the figure). Their respective movements do not affect each other. The front end face of the middle support slide 5 should have several threaded mounting holes 101 corresponding to the through holes 301 on the left panel 31 and the right panel 32, respectively, to achieve individual locking without interference.

[0030] The left support slide 4 includes a left bracket 41 and a first slide rail 42 located on the right side of the left bracket 41; the right support slide 6 includes a right bracket 61 and a second slide rail 62 located on the left side of the right bracket 61; the middle support slide 5 includes a middle bracket 51, a third slide rail 52 located on the left side of the middle bracket 51, and a fourth slide rail 53 located on the right side of the middle bracket 51; the third slide rail 52 is opposite to the first slide rail 42, and the fourth slide rail 53 is opposite to the second slide rail 62, which facilitates the smooth insertion of hardware such as hard drives, and makes the operation simple and fast.

[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, the locking assembly includes a locking pin 81, a spring 82, a rotating shaft 83, and a locking hook 84. The locking pin 81 is movably inserted into the mounting part 7, with its front end located in front of the mounting part 7 and its rear end being the locking end, extending to the rear of the mounting part 7. The spring 82 is sleeved on the locking pin 81, with its front end abutting against the locking pin 81 and its rear end abutting against the inside of the mounting part 7. The rotating shaft 83 is vertically positioned on the front side of the mounting part 7 and rotatably connected to it. The locking hook 84 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 83 to rotate left and right relative to the mounting part 7. After locking the pin 81 to the server rack (not shown in the attached drawings), the locking hook 84 further secures the pin to the server rack (not shown in the attached drawings). The disassembly and assembly operations are relatively simple, and the installation stability is guaranteed.

[0032] The mounting part 7 includes a mounting ear 71 and a mounting base 72. The mounting ear 71 is located on the front side of the top plate 2 of the handle strip. The mounting base 72 is detachably connected to the bottom of the mounting ear 71 and located on the bottom plate 1 of the handle strip. The detachable connection can be achieved by means such as screw fastening. The front end of the mounting base 72 extends to the front of the mounting ear 71. The locking hook 84 is rotatably connected to the front end of the mounting base 72 via a rotating shaft 83. The rotating shaft 83 enables the locking hook 84 to rotate left and right, facilitating the quick engagement and disengagement of the locking hook 84. The upper end of the mounting base 72 extends upward and is close to the inner side of the mounting ear 71. The locking pin 81 passes through the mounting ear 71 and the mounting base 72 together. The rear end of the spring 82 abuts against the inside of the mounting base 72. The design of locking pin 81, spring 82 and locking hook 84 enables quick installation and removal of server handle strips, effectively improving the efficiency of installation operations. The elastic restoring force of locking pin 81 and the locking hook function of locking hook 84 ensure that the server handle strips are not easy to loosen after being fixed, improving vibration resistance and thus ensuring installation reliability and meeting the requirements of stable deployment.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the locking assembly further includes a limiting pressure plate 85 located on the outer side of the mounting base 72, and a positioning pin 86 located on the rear side of the mounting ear 71. The limiting pressure plate 85 has a limiting protrusion 851 formed on its outer side for limiting engagement with the server rack (not shown in the attached drawings). The positioning pin 86 consists of a fixing plate 861 on the mounting ear 71, a cantilever 862 on the fixing plate 861, and a positioning protrusion 863 on the cantilever 862, for positioning engagement with the server rack (not shown in the attached drawings). The specific shape of the positioning pin 86 can be seen in the attached drawings. The modular installation method helps simplify the assembly process.

[0034] Specifically, in this embodiment, the handle strip base plate 1 is also provided with a first pad (not shown in the figure) located on the left side of the left support slide 4 and a second pad 9 located on the right side of the right support slide 6; the first pad (not shown in the figure) and the second pad 9 are respectively provided with a plurality of wire clips 10, and the plurality of wire clips 10 on the first pad (not shown in the figure) and the second pad 9 are arranged sequentially from front to back at intervals, which facilitates the organization and arrangement of multiple wire bundles and avoids the wire bundles being messy.

[0035] It should be noted that damping shafts are widely used in existing technologies. In practical applications, any suitable damping shaft from existing technologies can be used, as long as it can achieve a damped rotational connection between the handle panel and the handle base plate. The application of the first damping shaft (not shown in the attached figure) and the second damping shaft (not shown in the attached figure) is similar, and this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on either.

[0036] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
