Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mounting bracket technology, specifically to an adjustable module bracket. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of information technology, the hardware architecture of modern information systems is showing a trend towards modularization and integration. In deployment scenarios such as server racks and communication equipment racks, various functional modules (such as server nodes, network switching units, storage controllers, etc.) are usually stacked and installed on standardized rack structures.

[0003] Traditional brackets typically employ a fixed shelf spacing design, where the vertical distance between adjacent mounting planes is fixed during manufacturing. This rigid structure cannot accommodate modular equipment of varying heights. When encountering oversized hardware, a space utilization contradiction often arises: "large modules cannot be installed, while small modules leave too much empty space." Therefore, we propose an adjustable modular bracket to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An adjustable module bracket includes:

[0006] A bearing plate, wherein support plates are fixed on both sides of the top of the bearing plate, and the outer side of the support plate is provided with first slots at equal intervals;

[0007] The tray has extension plates fixed on both sides at one end, and a connecting rod is fixed between the inner sidewalls of the two extension plates. The connecting rod is slidably embedded in the first bayonet, and the bottom surface of the tray has an installation groove.

[0008] A support member is disposed inside the mounting groove, and the support member is used to support the tray.

[0009] Furthermore, the support member includes slide rods fixed at intervals between the inner sidewalls of the mounting groove, a folded plate slidably connected to the surface of the slide rod, a spring sleeved on one side of the slide rod surface located on the folded plate, and second slots equally spaced on the inner sidewall of the support plate, with one side of the folded plate embedded in the second slot.

[0010] Furthermore, the first bayonet is hook-shaped, and the second bayonet is arc-shaped and inclined.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a limiting component, which is used to limit the position of the information module. The limiting component includes a sliding plate that slides through one side of the mounting groove. One end of the sliding plate inside the mounting groove is connected to a folded plate, and a U-shaped plate is fixed to the other end of the sliding plate outside the mounting groove. Locking bolts are threaded to the upper sides of the U-shaped plate.

[0012] Furthermore, a rubber washer is rotatably connected to the end of the locking bolt via a bearing.

[0013] Furthermore, the top surface of the tray is constructed with anti-slip texture.

[0014] Furthermore, rollers are installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the support plate, and the rollers are self-locking omnidirectional wheels.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This utility model achieves rapid mechanical self-locking of the tray by using the first bayonet and connecting rod in conjunction with the second bayonet and folding plate. The tray is easy to install and remove, can be moved to any position, adapts to modules of different heights, reduces redundant space inside the cabinet, and increases deployment density. At the same time, the layout can be quickly adjusted without replacing the tray, shortening downtime during expansion and upgrades, making it highly practical. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] This application provides an adjustable module bracket, mainly to solve the problem of space utilization contradiction that often occurs when adapting to modular equipment of different heights in existing technologies, especially when encountering oversized hardware, where "large modules cannot be installed and small modules have too much empty space." The following technical solution is provided, which will be discussed in conjunction with... Figures 1-4 Please provide a detailed explanation:

[0024] An adjustable module bracket includes:

[0025] The support plate 1 has a support plate 2 fixed on both sides of the top of the support plate 1. The outer side of the support plate 2 has a first slot 201 at equal intervals.

[0026] The tray 3 has extension plates 4 fixed on both sides of one end of the tray 3. A connecting rod 5 is fixed between the inner sidewalls of the two extension plates 4. The connecting rod 5 is slidably embedded in the first slot 201. The bottom surface of the tray 3 has an installation groove 301.

[0027] Support member 6 is disposed inside the mounting groove 301. Support member 6 is used to support the support plate 3. Support member 6 includes a slide rod 601 fixed at intervals between the inner sidewalls of the mounting groove 301. A folded plate 602 is slidably connected to the surface of the slide rod 601. A spring 603 is sleeved on one side of the slide rod 601 located on the folded plate 602. The inner sidewall of the support plate 2 is constructed with second slots 202 at equal intervals. One side of the folded plate 602 is embedded in the second slot 202.

[0028] Workflow Description:

[0029] First, plan the positions of each tray 3 according to the height and size of the information module, and then install the tray 3. During installation, the tray 3 can be placed above the support plate 2, so that the support plate 2 is located between the two extension plates 4. First, pull the folded plate 602 outward to compress the spring 603. Then, move the tray 3 downward. When the tray 3 reaches the designated position, insert the connecting rod 5 into the first bayonet 201. After releasing, the folded plate 602 moves closer to the support plate 2. By rotating the tray 3, adjust the position so that one end of the folded plate 602 is inserted into the second bayonet 202. After releasing, the mechanical self-locking can be completed under the action of the weight of the tray 3 (the principle is similar to the foot hooks used by power maintenance personnel to climb the pole). In this way, the tray 3 can be stably installed on the support plate 2. Then, the information module can be placed on the surface of the tray 3.

[0030] The adjustable module bracket for information system deployment uses a first latch 201 to engage with a connecting rod 5 and a second latch 202 to engage with a folding plate 602, which enables rapid mechanical self-locking of the tray 3. The tray 3 is easy to install and remove, can be moved to any position, adapts to modules of different heights, reduces redundant space inside the cabinet, and increases deployment density. At the same time, the layout can be quickly adjusted without replacing the tray, shortening downtime during expansion and upgrades.

[0031] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the first latch 201 is hook-shaped, and the second latch 202 is arc-shaped and inclined. More specifically, after the connecting rod 5 is embedded to the deepest part of the first latch 201, the hook-shaped structure achieves vertical positioning through mechanical engagement to prevent the support plate 3 from shifting. When one end of the folded plate 602 is embedded, the arc-shaped design allows the folded plate 602 to slide along the inclined direction and together with the slide rod 601 (the third side) form the two wings of a triangle. The folded plate 602, as the hypotenuse, transfers the load of the support plate 3 to the second latch 202 of the support plate 2. The cooperation between the hook-shaped latch and the inclined latch allows the connecting rod 5 and the folded plate 602 to automatically lock after adjustment without the need for additional fastening components.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a limiting member 7 is also included. The limiting member 7 is used to limit the position of the information module. The limiting member 7 includes a sliding plate 701 that slides through one side of the mounting groove 301. One end of the sliding plate 701 located inside the mounting groove 301 is connected to the folded plate 602. The other end of the sliding plate 701 located outside the mounting groove 301 is fixed with a U-shaped plate 702. Locking bolts 703 are threadedly connected to the upper sides of the U-shaped plate 702. More specifically, the information module is placed flat on the top of the support plate 3. By rotating the locking bolts 703, one end of the bolts abuts against one side of the information module, thus limiting the position of the information module. It should be noted that...

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the end of the locking bolt 703 is rotatably connected to a rubber gasket 704 via a bearing. More specifically, the rubber gasket 704 is a flexible component that is in direct contact with the module surface. It fills the gap and disperses the pressure by deforming itself, thus protecting the module surface.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the top surface of the tray 3 is constructed with anti-slip texture. More specifically, in information system deployment scenarios, the tray 3 needs to support functional modules such as server nodes and storage devices. These modules are usually heavy and have smooth surfaces (such as metal shells or coatings). If the surface of the tray 3 is not treated with anti-slip material, the equipment is prone to displacement when vibrating, being handled, or experiencing temperature changes. The core purpose of the anti-slip texture is to ensure the stability of the modules on the tray 3 by increasing surface friction.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, rollers 8 are installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the support plate 1. The rollers 8 are self-locking casters. More specifically, the caster design allows the support plate 1 to move freely without steering, which is suitable for scenarios with narrow spaces or frequent position adjustments (such as machine rooms and workshops). The self-locking function can quickly brake when fixation is required to prevent the support plate 1 from shifting due to external forces (such as vibration or collision), thus ensuring the safety of equipment or items.

[0036] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
