[0001] This application relates to the field of computer hardware technology, and in particular to a graphics card mounting device, a graphics card, a motherboard, and electronic products. Background Technology
[0002] In related technologies, after a graphics card is inserted into the motherboard, the size of graphics cards such as PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) is getting thicker and thicker. The space in the clip position of the PCIe graphics card slot is narrow. When it is necessary to remove the graphics card, it is not possible to directly press the clip to unlock the graphics card by hand. Special tools are required, which leads to low efficiency, difficulty in disassembly, and great inconvenience to customers and installers. Utility Model Content

[0007] The first aspect of this application provides a graphics card fixing device, including: a locking component, a first elastic component, and an unlocking component;
[0008] The card slot can be movably set and is used to limit the position of the installed graphics card;

[0010] The unlocking component is used to move the locking piece to the position where the graphics card is released.
[0011] Furthermore, the graphics card fixing device also includes a limiting component, which is used to limit the card holder to a preset position when the unlocking component causes the card holder to release the graphics card.
[0012] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a second elastic component and a limiting block;
[0013] The limiting block is provided with a guide slope. The limiting block is movably set and used to allow the locking member to pass through in one direction, so that when the locking member contacts the guide slope, it can drive the limiting block to move and pass through.
[0014] The second elastic component is used to provide an elastic force acting on the limiting block so that the limiting block can be maintained at or reset to the position used to limit the locking member after the locking member passes.
[0015] Furthermore, the graphics card fixing device also includes a tongue and a third elastic component. The tongue is rotatably configured, and the third elastic component is used to provide torque acting on the tongue so that the tongue can be maintained at or reset to the position for contacting the graphics card. The tongue is used to move with the installation and removal of the graphics card after contacting it, and the tongue resets after the graphics card is pulled out and drives the limiting block away from the ejection position used to limit the card holder.
[0016] Furthermore, the graphics card fixing device also includes a housing with a recess, and the locking member is movably disposed on the housing and surrounds the recess to form an installation space for limiting the graphics card.
[0017] Furthermore, the unlocking component includes a button assembly and a lever, the button assembly being used to move the lever, and the lever being used to move the locking member to switch positions.
[0018] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the embodiments of this application have at least the following beneficial effects: When inserting the graphics card, the installation is completed by the graphics card pushing open the locking component. After the graphics card is inserted into place, the locking component limits the graphics card based on the force of the first elastic component, realizing automatic installation of the graphics card without any extra actions. When removing the graphics card, the locking component is released by the unlocking component. After the graphics card is removed, the locking component automatically resets due to the force of the first elastic component. Thus, both actions of inserting and removing the graphics card are simplified, making disassembly and assembly convenient, achieving the effect of semi-automatic insertion and removal of graphics cards, and improving operational efficiency.
[0019] A second aspect of this application provides a graphics card, including a graphics card mounting device as described in the first aspect of this application.
[0020] Furthermore, the graphics card is provided with a hook structure, which is used to cooperate with the card slot component.

[0045] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0046] See Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the first aspect of this application discloses a graphics card fixing device, including a locking member 100, a first elastic member 200, and an unlocking component 300.
[0047] The locking component 100 is movable and used to limit the installed graphics card; the first elastic component 200 is used to provide an elastic force acting on the locking component 100 so that the locking component 100 can be maintained in or reset to the position that limits the graphics card; the unlocking component 300 is used to move the locking component 100 to the position that releases the graphics card.
[0048] In the embodiments of this application, when inserting the graphics card, the installation is completed by pushing open the card holder 100. After the graphics card is inserted into place, the card holder 100 limits the graphics card based on the force of the first elastic component 200, realizing automatic installation of the graphics card without any extra actions. When removing the graphics card, the card holder 100 is released by the unlocking component 300. After the graphics card is removed, the card holder 100 automatically resets due to the force of the first elastic component 200. This simplifies both the insertion and removal of the graphics card, making disassembly and assembly convenient and achieving a semi-automatic graphics card insertion and removal effect, thus improving operational efficiency.
[0049] It is understood that in some embodiments of this application, the graphics card fixing device includes a housing 700, the housing 700 having a recess 710, and a locking member 100 movably disposed on the housing 700 and forming an installation space for limiting the graphics card with the recess 710. Specifically, the housing 700 has a locking space as the recess 710 for accommodating the graphics card portion. This locking space, in conjunction with the locking member 100, enables the installed graphics card to be reliably fixed. The locking member 100 is movably disposed on the housing 700. When the graphics card is inserted, it simultaneously overcomes the elastic force of the first elastic member 200 and pushes open the locking member 100, allowing the graphics card to smoothly enter the locking space. After the graphics card is installed in the slot of the motherboard 800, the locking member 100 is reset based on the force of the first elastic member 200, thereby achieving the effect of limiting the graphics card with the locking member 100.
[0050] In some embodiments, the slot space can be formed by the housing 700 of the graphics card mounting device and the motherboard 800. In this case, the slotting component 100 can be adaptively adjusted in position, such as being placed on the housing 700 or the motherboard 800 of the graphics card mounting device, to achieve the same effect of limiting the graphics card. Similarly, the positions of the first elastic component 200 and the unlocking component 300 can be adaptively adjusted to meet installation requirements and optimize the structural layout.
[0051] The following will combine Figures 1 to 6 The graphics card fixing device disclosed in the embodiments of this application will be explained and described in detail.
[0052] It should be understood that the unlocking component 300 causes the card holder 100 to release the graphics card, thereby enabling the graphics card to be removed. In order to further improve the convenience and automation of removing and installing the graphics card, the card holder 100 will not be affected by the first spring component 200 after releasing the graphics card, so that there will be no difficulty in removing and reinstalling the graphics card.
[0053] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 6 The graphics card fixing device also includes a limiting component 400, which is used to limit the locking component 100 in a preset position when the unlocking component 300 causes the locking component 100 to release the graphics card.
[0054] Understandably, the setting of the limiting component 400 allows the locking component 100 to be positioned by the limiting component 400 after the graphics card is released. At this time, the locking component 100 is simultaneously subjected to the forces of the first elastic component 200 and the limiting component 400 without shifting, thus facilitating the removal of the graphics card. After the limiting component 400 is manually or automatically unlocked, the locking component 100 is reset based on the force of the first elastic component 200. Therefore, before the limiting component 400 is unlocked, it also has the effect of facilitating the reinstallation and fixation of the graphics card.
[0055] In some embodiments, the limiting component 400 may be configured as a limiting component capable of being engaged within the movement path of the locking member 100, thereby popping out when the locking member 100 moves to a preset position to achieve limiting. In other embodiments, it may also be configured as a connector capable of connecting to the locking member 100 when it moves to the preset position, achieving the limiting effect through a fixed connection.
[0056] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 The limiting component 400 includes a second elastic component 410 and a limiting block 420;
[0057] The limiting block 420 is provided with a guide slope 421. The limiting block 420 is movably set and used to allow the locking member 100 to pass through in one direction, so that when the locking member 100 contacts the guide slope 421, it can drive the limiting block 420 to move and pass through.
[0058] The second elastic component 410 is used to provide an elastic force acting on the limiting block 420 so that the limiting block 420 can be maintained at or reset to the position used to limit the locking member 100 after the locking member 100 passes.
[0059] Understandably, the limit block 420 is a movable setting that allows the card holder 100 to pass through in one direction, so that the card holder 100 can move normally in the direction of releasing the graphics card without retraction, thus improving the convenience and automation of operation. In order to optimize the structural design and better realize the one-way passage function, a guide slope 421 is set. When the card holder 100 moves in the direction of releasing the graphics card, it can contact the guide slope 421. Based on the setting of the guide slope 421, the limiting block 420 will be driven when it contacts the card holder 100. The guide slope 421 plays the role of decomposing the force, on the one hand, minimizing the impact on the normal movement of the card holder 100, and on the other hand, allowing the limiting block 420 to leave and exit the limiting position, thereby ensuring that the card holder 100 passes smoothly. After the card holder 100 has completely passed, the limiting block 420 will reset back to the limiting position based on the force of the second elastic component 410. At this time, the card holder 100 is also subject to the force of the first elastic component 200 and has a tendency to reset and contact the other side of the limiting block 420 opposite to the guide slope 421, and is thus limited in position by the limiting block 420.
[0060] In one specific embodiment, the card holder 100 is horizontal along the direction of releasing the graphics card, and the limiting block 420 is vertically movably set in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the card holder 100. The guide slope 421 is a chamfer formed on the limiting block 420. When the card holder 100 moves horizontally along the direction of releasing the graphics card, it will contact the guide slope 421 and cause the limiting block 420 to retract vertically and leave the movement path of the card holder 100. After the card holder 100 has completely passed the limiting block 420, the limiting block 420 extends again vertically to limit the card holder 100.
[0061] It should be understood that after the unlocking component 300 causes the locking component 100 to release the graphics card, the limiting block 420 has already limited the locking component 100. If you want to reset the locking component 100, you need to release the limiting effect of the limiting block 420 on the locking component 100. In some embodiments, the limiting effect of the limiting block 420 is released by means of, but not limited to, manually moving the limiting block 420, or moving the position of the limiting block 420 by setting a component that acts on the limiting block 420.
[0062] Considering that the card slot 100 typically needs to be reset only when the graphics card is being secured and when the graphics card is not installed, in some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 4 to 5 The graphics card fixing device also includes a tongue 500 and a third elastic component 510. The tongue 500 is rotatably set, and the third elastic component 510 is used to provide torque acting on the tongue 500 so that the tongue 500 can be maintained in or reset to the position for contacting the graphics card. The tongue 500 is used to move with the installation and removal of the graphics card after contacting it, and the tongue 500 resets after the graphics card is pulled out and drives the limiting block 420 away from the ejection position of the limiting card holder 100.
[0063] Understandably, the tongue 500 is used to move with the installation and removal of the graphics card after contacting it. When the graphics card is installed, the tongue 500 drives the limit block 420 to reset to the ejected position, and when the graphics card is removed, the tongue 500 drives the limit block 420 away from the ejected position. Based on the action of the third elastic component 510, the tongue 500 will be in an initial position. In this initial position, the tongue 500 can contact the installed graphics card. As the graphics card is installed, the limiting block 420 will first be pressed down to leave the ejection position. At this time, the locking component 100 will be reset by the first elastic component 200. Then, the tongue 500 will be moved synchronously. In response to the installation of the graphics card, the movement of the tongue 500 will drive the limiting block 420 to move, thereby causing the limiting block 420 to reset to the limiting position. Thus, while the graphics card is installed, the locking component 100, in conjunction with the installation space, locks the graphics card. This does not affect the subsequent movement of the locking component 100 through the limiting position of the limiting block 420 by the unlocking component 300, further improving the convenience and automation of disassembly and assembly.
[0064] In one specific embodiment, the tongue 500 has a first end and a second end opposite to each other. The first end of the tongue 500 is rotatably configured. The second elastic member 410 is used to provide torque acting on the tongue 500 and acting on the first end. When the tongue 500 is in the initial position, the second end of the tongue 500 is tilted upward and used to contact the graphics card. During the process of installing the graphics card, the tongue 500 will move from the tilted state to the horizontal state. At this time, the graphics card is installed, the limiting block 420 is reset to the limiting position, and the locking member 100 is reset and locks the graphics card.
[0065] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 6 The unlocking component 300 includes a button component 310 and a lever 320. The button component 310 is used to move the lever 320, and the movement of the lever 320 is used to move the locking component 100 to switch positions. It is understood that the button component 310 has the advantage of ease of use, and the lever 320 can make full use of space while providing a transmission effect, thereby ensuring a compact and reasonable layout of the graphics card mounting device.
[0066] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 6 The button assembly 310 includes a button body 311, a fourth elastic member 312, and a fixed base 313. The button body 311 is movably mounted on the fixed base 313. The fourth elastic member 312 provides an elastic force to the button body 311 so that the button body 311 can be reset. The button body 311 and the pull rod 320 are connected by a transmission structure so that the button body 311 drives the pull rod 320 to move horizontally through vertical movement, and the pull rod 320 can drive the locking member 100 to move horizontally to switch positions.
[0067] In some embodiments, the transmission structure includes, but is not limited to, commonly used transmission mechanisms such as crank-slider mechanisms and cam mechanisms. In some embodiments, the transmission structure may also consist of two complementary inclined planes in contact to achieve the conversion of motion direction and transmission.
[0068] In some embodiments, the first elastic component 200, the second elastic component 410, and the fourth elastic component 312 are springs, and the third elastic component 510 is a torsion spring. In other embodiments, without changing the original function, the structure of at least one of the first elastic component 200, the second elastic component 410, the third elastic component 510, or the fourth elastic component 312 can be adaptively adjusted to meet the needs of different application scenarios.
[0069] Reference Figures 1 to 6The specific embodiment of the application is as follows: the card slot 100 is normally in the locked position. When the graphics card is inserted, the card hook pushes the card slot 100 along the right and enters the recess 710. Then the first elastic component 200 resets the card slot 100 to achieve locking.
[0070] When removing the graphics card, the button body 311 moves vertically. There is a slope below the button body 311, and the lever 320 has a slope that cooperates with it. Thus, the lever 320 moves horizontally and pulls the locking piece 100 to the right away from the locking hook, so that the graphics card can be pulled out.
[0071] Furthermore, regarding the limiting issue after the lever 320 is pulled to the right to open the locking member 100, based on the inclined surface on the limiting block 420, the limiting block 420 allows the locking member 100 to move with the pull of the lever 320. After the locking member 100 passes, the limiting block 420 pushes out to achieve the limiting.
[0072] Furthermore, regarding the issue of how the limiting block 420 is released, since the setting of the limiting block 420 prevents the locking component 100 from returning to its normal locking position after the graphics card is removed, the tongue 500 senses whether the graphics card has been removed. When the graphics card is removed, the tongue 500 tilts up, causing the limiting block 420 to retract, allowing the locking component 100 to return to its locking position. When the graphics card is inserted, the tongue 500 presses down, causing the limiting block 420 to lift up. Based on the inclined surface of the limiting block 420, even if the limiting block 420 is lifted up, the locking component 100 is allowed to pass through the limiting block 420 as the lever 320 is pulled.
[0073] The second aspect of this application discloses a graphics card, which may be a PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect), PCI-E (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express), or AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) graphics card, etc., and includes: the graphics card fixing device of the first aspect of this application.
[0074] In some embodiments, the structure of the housing 700 and the structure of the card slot 100 of the graphics card fixing device can be designed according to the existing structure of commonly used graphics cards, so as to meet the usage requirements of locking the graphics card.
[0075] It should be understood that, in order to further improve the locking effect and the ease of disassembly and assembly, the graphics card can be structurally designed to match the graphics card fixing device of this application, thereby further meeting the usage requirements.
[0076] In some embodiments of this application, the graphics card is provided with a hook structure 610, which is used to cooperate with the card slot 100.
[0077] It is understandable that the graphics card includes the graphics card body 600, which has a latch structure 610. The latch structure is designed to cooperate with the graphics card fixing device, so that after the graphics card body 600 is installed in the slot of the motherboard 800, the latch structure 610 can also cooperate with the locking piece 100 to fix the position of the graphics card body 600.
[0078] In some embodiments, the graphics card body 600 and the card hook structure 610 may be an integrated structure, or they may be manufactured and assembled separately and then connected as a whole, so as to be used in conjunction with the graphics card fixing device of this application.
[0079] The graphics card fixing device of this application embodiment is described in detail below with reference to a specific example. It should be noted that the following embodiment is merely an exemplary description and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application.
[0080] See Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the graphics card fixing device in this embodiment is installed on the motherboard 800 PCB board with screws. The motherboard 800 is provided with a PCIE slot, and the graphics card fixing device is located at one end of the PCIE slot. By pressing the remote button body 311, the lever 320 can be moved to move the card holder 100. The opening and closing movement of the card holder 100 is controlled by the setting of the tongue 500 and the limit block 420, so as to achieve the purpose of locking the graphics card hook structure 610 and unlocking the graphics card hook structure 610.
[0081] When the graphics card body 600 is inserted into the PCIe slot, the graphics card's latch structure 610 pushes open the locking piece 100 and pushes the locking piece 100 to the right. At the same time, after the graphics card's latch structure 610 is installed in place, it flattens the tongue 500. At this time, the locking piece 100 moves to the left under the action of the first elastic component 200 to lock the graphics card's latch structure 610, so that the graphics card is fixed in the PCIe slot and does not fall off.
[0082] When the graphics card body 600 needs to be removed, the button body 311 is pressed down, which drives the lever 320 to pull the locking piece 100 to the right. The locking piece 100 moves to the right and presses against the limiting block 420. On the one hand, the limiting block 420 compresses the second elastic component 410 downward, and on the other hand, it continues to move to the right. After the locking piece 100 passes the limiting block 420, the limiting block 420 bounces up under the action of the second elastic component 410 and limits the locking piece 100, thereby unlocking the graphics card body 600. After the graphics card is removed, the tongue 500 tilts and drives the limiting block 420 to move downward. The limiting block 420 releases the limiting of the locking piece 100, causing the locking piece 100 to bounce back to the left, and the graphics card fixing device returns to the state before the graphics card was inserted.
[0083] It is understood that the graphics card fixing device disclosed in this application embodiment can automate the insertion of the graphics card without the need for additional action of pressing a button to open the latch; when removing the graphics card, the latch is unlocked by pressing a button once. Based on the linkage between the tongue 500 and the limiting block 420, the locking member 100 is kept in the open state. After the graphics card is removed, the tongue 500 drives the limiting block 420 under the force of the third elastic component 510, so that the locking member 100 returns to the state before the graphics card was inserted, realizing automatic reset. Thus, the two actions of inserting and removing the graphics card are simplified into one action, realizing semi-automatic insertion and removal of graphics cards.
[0084] The motherboard of the third aspect of this application may be a motherboard of a computer or device configured with PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) slots, PCI-E (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) slots, AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) slots, etc. The motherboard includes: the graphics card fixing device of the first aspect of this application or the graphics card of the second aspect of this application.
[0085] In some embodiments, the graphics card is mounted on the motherboard 800, and the graphics card mounting device is mounted on the motherboard 800 and used to secure the graphics card.
[0086] Specifically, the graphics card mounting device is installed on the motherboard 800 using threaded fasteners, so that the graphics card mounting device is in a position that can cooperate with the hook structure 610. When the graphics card body 600 is installed on the connector of the motherboard 800, the graphics card mounting device can simultaneously fix the hook structure 610.
[0087] The electronic product of the fourth aspect of this application may be a computer, smart home device, vehicle or automation device, etc. The electronic product includes: a graphics card, a motherboard 800 and a graphics card fixing device of the first aspect of this application; the graphics card fixing device is disposed on the motherboard 800; the graphics card is provided with a hook structure 610, which is used to cooperate with the card slot 100.
[0088] It is easy to understand that the graphics card in the second aspect embodiment of this application, the motherboard in the third aspect embodiment of this application, and the electronic product in the fourth aspect embodiment of this application all have the same technical effects as the graphics card fixing device in the first aspect embodiment, and therefore will not be described again.
