For example, vibrations will occur when the external storage device is transported, and strong vibrations will damage the external storage device. They cannot reduce the impact force of vibration on the external storage device during transportation. At the same time, they cannot effectively protect the external storage device inside the enclosure, resulting in low practicality.
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, the inventors propose a transfer device for external storage devices. Utility Model Content

[0018] Through the above technical solutions
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0020] 1. This utility model can drive the rotating plate to rotate by the sliding of the extrusion block. During the rotation of the rotating plate, its own angle will change. When the placement plate moves up and down, the spring in the spring shock absorber assembly will be compressed or stretched.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0029] Example: Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a transfer device for external storage devices, including a base plate 1, a handle 3 rotatably connected to one side of the top surface of the base plate 1, a placement plate 2 provided above the base plate 1, a box 5 fixedly connected to the top surface of the placement plate 2, a box cover 6 provided above the box 5, four limiting devices 7 arranged in a rectangular array between the box 5 and the box cover 6, and a buffer device 4 symmetrically fixedly connected between the base plate 1 and the placement plate 2.
[0030] The buffer device 4 includes symmetrically distributed limiting blocks 401. A connecting rod 402 is fixedly connected to one end of the opposite face of each limiting block 401. Two pressing blocks 403 are movably sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod 402. A third spring 404 is fixedly connected between the pressing blocks 403 and movably sleeved with the connecting rod 402. Two fixing plates 405 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the pressing blocks 403 and the bottom of the placement plate 2. A rotating plate 406 is rotatably connected between adjacent fixing plates 405. The bottom surface of 03 is fixedly connected to a second slider 407. The top surface of the base plate 1 is provided with a second slide groove 408 that works with the second slider 407. Multiple spring damper assemblies 409 arranged in a rectangular array are fixedly connected between the base plate 1 and the placement plate 2. The bottom surface of the placement plate 2 is fixedly connected to a pressing rod 410. A fourth spring 411 is sleeved on the outer surface of the pressing rod 410. The ends of the fourth spring 411 are fixedly connected to the base plate 1 and the placement plate 2 respectively. The lower part of the pressing rod 410 is movably sleeved with the base plate 1.
[0031] When the placement plate 2 moves up and down, the spring in the spring damper assembly 409 will undergo compression or stretching deformation, absorbing and consuming vibration energy through changes in elastic potential energy, further reducing the impact of vibration on the housing 5 and external storage device on the placement plate 2. The second slider 407 slides in the second slide groove 408, providing a stable guide for the movement of the extrusion block 403, thereby reducing the vibration impact force borne by the external storage device during transportation.
[0032] The limiting device 7 includes a rod 71, a push plate 72 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rod 71, a first spring 73 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rod 71, four second through slots 74 opened on the outer surface of the box cover 6, four third through slots 75 opened on the top end of the box cover 6, the bottom end of the first spring 73 fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the third through slot 75, the outer surface of the push plate 72 fits against the inner wall of the second through slot 74, the outer surface of the rod 71 fits against the inner wall of the third through slot 75, one end of the rod 71 penetrates the top end of the box cover 6, the top end of the box cover 6 has four first through slots 76 arranged in a circular array, a second spring 77 fixedly connected to one side inner wall of each of the four first through slots 76, a ball bearing 78 fixedly connected to one end of each of the four second springs 77, and four holes 79 for use with the ball bearing 78 opened on the outer surface of the rod 71.
[0033] When the insertion rod 71 is inserted to a certain depth, the sliding ball 78 will be embedded in the hole 79 on the insertion rod 71 under the elastic force of the second spring 77. The embedded fit further enhances the locking effect of the insertion rod 71, preventing the insertion rod 71 from accidentally coming out due to vibration or external force during transportation, ensuring that the cover 6 and the box body 5 are tightly connected, which can effectively protect the external storage device inside the box body 5.
[0034] The working principle of a transfer device for an external storage device according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: When the transfer device is subjected to vibration or bumps, the placement plate 2 will be displaced relative to the base plate 1. When the placement plate 2 is displaced downward, the pressing block 403 will slide on the connecting rod 402. Since the top of the pressing block 403 and the two sides of the bottom end of the placement plate 2 are rotatably connected by the rotating plate 406 through the fixing plate 405, the sliding of the pressing block 403 will drive the rotating plate 406 to rotate. During the rotation, the rotating plate 406 will change its own angle. When the placement plate 2 is displaced up and down, the spring in the spring shock absorber assembly 409 will be compressed or stretched, and the vibration energy will be absorbed and consumed through the change of elastic potential energy, further reducing the impact of vibration on the housing 5 and the external storage device on the placement plate 2. The second slider 407 slides in the second slide groove 408, providing a stable guide for the movement of the pressing block 403, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the vibration impact force borne by the external storage device due to transportation.
[0035] Pressing the four push plates 72 in the cover 6 causes the push plates 72 to descend, which in turn causes the insertion rod 71 to descend. The descent of the insertion rod 71 causes the first spring 73 to compress and deform against the lower inner wall of the third through groove 75. The push plates 72 slide in the inner wall of the second through groove 74. The holes 79 on the outer surface of the push plates 72 are respectively in contact with the outer surface of the ball bearing 78. The ball bearing 78 is forced to compress the second spring 77 against the inner wall of one side of the first through groove 76. The inner wall of the hole 79 separates from the outer surface of the ball bearing 78, and the insertion rod 71 disengages from the top of the protective cover 3. Conversely, when the insertion rod 71 is inserted to a certain depth, the ball bearing 78 will be embedded in the hole 79 on the insertion rod 71 under the elastic force of the second spring 77. The embedded fit further enhances the locking effect of the insertion rod 71, preventing the insertion rod 71 from accidentally coming out due to vibration or external force during transportation. This ensures that the cover 6 and the box body 5 are tightly connected, thereby effectively protecting the external storage device inside the box body 5.
[0036] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
