Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hard disk assembly technology, specifically a tool-free hard disk assembly structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of network technology, the demand for servers is increasing. Nowadays, customer needs are gradually trending towards large-capacity storage, resulting in an increasing number of hard drives in server designs. Hard drive brackets are an indispensable structural component for most servers. Hard drive brackets are used to connect with hard drives and fix them inside the server chassis.

[0003] However, existing hard drive brackets only provide quick-release enclosures. If you need to replace the hard drive, you have to use a screwdriver to remove the hard drive from the bracket, which is quite troublesome.

[0004] To address the aforementioned deficiencies, Chinese Patent No. CN215814033U discloses a tool-free, quick-release shockproof hard drive assembly structure and hard drive component. This includes a connector body, with one end as a fixed end and the other as a movable connecting end. The fixed end has a first connecting structure for fixed connection with the hard drive bracket. The movable connecting end includes a plug-in structure fixedly connected to the connector body and an elastic buffer. The plug-in structure passes through the elastic buffer and connects to the hard drive located inside the hard drive bracket. During hard drive installation, since one end of the connector body is already fixedly connected to the hard drive bracket, installation can be completed simply by inserting the end of the plug-in structure of the movable connecting end into the corresponding connection hole on the hard drive bracket and hard drive. At this time, the elastic buffer is located outside the hard drive, the relative position of the hard drive and the hard drive bracket is fixed, and the hard drive is locked onto the hard drive bracket. Due to the compressibility and elasticity of the elastic buffer itself, it provides a certain degree of cushioning and shockproof protection for the hard drive.

[0005] The aforementioned device uses a plug-in structure to fix the hard drive and the hard drive bracket during use. However, the plug-in structure in the aforementioned device is prone to breakage after prolonged use, thus requiring replacement of the hard drive bracket. Therefore, in actual use, the plug-in structure is prone to breakage after prolonged use. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tool-free hard drive assembly structure to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that plug-in components are prone to breakage after long-term use.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a tool-free hard drive assembly structure, including a bracket, the inner side of which movably abuts against the hard drive body, a baffle fixedly installed on the outer surface of the bracket, a support arm fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, a limit plate fixedly installed on the outer surface of the support arm, and a stable mounting mechanism provided between the bracket and the support arm; a buffer pad fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, a connecting block fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, and a disassembly and assembly mechanism for easy replacement provided between the bracket and the connecting block.

[0008] Furthermore, a fixing member is movably abutted against the outer surface of the baffle, and a lever is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the fixing member, and the fixing member and the lever form an integral structure.

[0009] Furthermore, a limiting plate is fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, and a locking groove is opened on the inner side of the limiting plate. A buckle is movably abutted against the inner side of the limiting plate, and the limiting plate and the buckle form a locking structure.

[0010] Furthermore, a connector is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the bracket, a drive rod is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connector, and an installation block is movably installed on the outer surface of the drive rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the disassembly and assembly mechanism includes a telescopic component, which is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting block. A positioning spring is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting block, and the telescopic component and the positioning spring form a telescopic structure.

[0012] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism includes a limiting block, which is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the telescopic member. A connector is movably installed on the outer surface of the limiting block, and the limiting block and the connector form a locking structure.

[0013] Furthermore, the outer surface of the connector is fixedly equipped with anti-slip texture, a buckle is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connector, and a positioning plate is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connector.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] (1) By pressing the connector left and right, the connector moves the limit block, and the limit block moves the telescopic component and the positioning spring, which makes it easy to disassemble the connector and replace personnel when the connector is damaged, thereby reducing the cost of maintenance.

[0016] (2) By manually rotating the connector, the connector drives the limit block to rotate, and the limit block drives the telescopic component to rotate. The telescopic component and the positioning spring cooperate with each other, which facilitates the quick reset of the connector, avoids the connector being exposed outside the bracket and causing damage, and improves the safety of the equipment.

[0017] (3) By manually moving the lever, the lever drives the fixed part to move the bracket, and the bracket drives the connecting part to rotate the drive rod, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the bracket angle and making the bracket installation convenient.

[0018] (4) By manually rotating the connector, the connector's buckle engages in the engagement slot of the limiting plate, and the positioning plate engages in the groove of the hard drive body, thereby quickly installing the bracket and the hard drive body, making it convenient for personnel to use.
