Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of data processor installation technology, and in particular relates to a card-connecting mechanism for installing a data processor. Background Technology

[0002] A data processor is an electronic device or system specifically designed for processing data. It can quickly and efficiently process and analyze data to extract valuable information that supports decision-making and business operations. Data processor installation generally involves two methods: direct installation, where the data processor is directly fixed to the motherboard slot or other connection location of the device; and installation using brackets or other auxiliary tools, where the data processor is secured to the device using specific brackets or fixing devices.

[0003] Currently, data processors are mostly installed by welding or screws. However, in industrial automation equipment, data processors may need to be replaced frequently due to upgrades or maintenance. Using screws for frequent disassembly and reassembly is not only cumbersome, requiring the constant carrying and operation of screwdrivers and other tools, but also causes friction on the thread surface during each disassembly and reassembly, leading to gradual wear of the threads and loosening of the screws. This, in turn, affects the connection stability between the data processor and the bracket or equipment. Therefore, this utility model proposes a snap-fit ​​mechanism for installing data processors. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a snap-fit ​​mechanism for installing a data processor. Through the interlocking and fixing mechanism, the upper and lower fitting of the insertion sleeve and fixing post, along with the horizontal insertion of the insertion rod and slot, drives the mounting base and the data processor body to snap-fit ​​and fix them together. Compared to screw installation, this eliminates the need for tools, reducing hassle and simplifying operation. It also reduces wear and tear, ensuring installation stability. Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism allows for precise snap-fit ​​fixing when the data processor body is upgraded or replaced with a new one. By using a bidirectional lead screw and threaded moving block to adjust the position of the insertion sleeve and fixing post on the new data processor body, any deviation occurs. This solves the problems in the prior art.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model discloses a card-connecting mechanism for mounting a data processor, comprising:

[0007] The mounting base and the data processor body are provided, with the mounting base located at the bottom of the data processor body and two pairs of mounting frames on the top of the mounting base;

[0008] Two pairs of insertion and fixing mechanisms are provided, which are disposed between the mounting base and the data processor body, and are used to drive the mounting base and the data processor body to connect and fix them.

[0009] A pair of adjustment mechanisms, wherein the adjustment mechanisms are disposed at the bottom of the mounting frame and are used to adjust the position of the mounting frame;

[0010] The insertion and fixing mechanism includes a fixed column fixedly connected inside the mounting frame. An insertion sleeve is fitted on the outer wall of the fixed column, and the outer wall of the insertion sleeve contacts the inner wall of the mounting frame. A cover plate is fixedly connected to the top of the insertion sleeve, and side plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the cover plate. The top of the cover plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the data processor body. U-shaped plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting frame, and multiple insertion rods are provided on one side of the U-shaped plates. Multiple first through holes are drilled on each pair of U-shaped plates. Multiple second through holes are drilled between the two sides of each pair of side plates. Multiple third through holes are drilled on both sides of the mounting frame. Multiple slots are drilled on both sides of the insertion sleeve. A pull plate is fixedly connected between the ends of the multiple insertion rods away from the U-shaped plates. The ends of the insertion rods away from the pull plate pass through the first through hole, the second through hole, and the third through hole in sequence and extend into the slots. Springs are fitted on the outer walls of the multiple insertion rods, and the two ends of the springs are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the pull plate and the U-shaped plate, respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, a hollow rubber pad is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame, and the top of the hollow rubber pad is in contact with the bottom of the cover plate, while the inner wall of the hollow rubber pad is in contact with the outer wall of the insertion sleeve frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the outer wall of the pull plate is fitted with a pair of flexible sleeves, and the pair of flexible sleeves are arranged front and back.

[0013] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes a bidirectional lead screw, the top of the mounting base is chiseled with two pairs of mounting grooves, and the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected to the mounting base and a pair of mounting grooves respectively through bearings. A pair of threaded moving blocks are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw, and the outer wall of the threaded moving blocks is in contact with the inner wall of the mounting grooves. The top of the threaded moving blocks is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame, and an anti-slip rotating block is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0014] Furthermore, the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw is provided with a pair of external threads in opposite directions, and a threaded through hole is drilled between the two sides of the threaded moving block. The threaded moving block is sleeved on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw through the threaded through hole and is threadedly connected to it.

[0015] Furthermore, the top of the mounting base is fixedly connected with multiple evenly distributed heat sinks, and the tops of the multiple heat sinks are in contact with the bottom of the data processor body.

[0016] The present invention has the following advantages over the prior art:

[0017] 1. This technical solution uses a set of plug-in fixing mechanism. By fitting the insert sleeve frame and the fixing post together, the mounting base and the data processor body come into contact. Through the elasticity of the spring, the plug rod passes through the side plate and the mounting frame and plugs into the slot on the mounting frame for limiting. This facilitates the locking and fixing of the mounting base and the data processor body. Compared with the screw installation method, no tools are needed for disassembly and assembly, reducing trouble and simplifying operation. At the same time, it is not easy to wear and ensures its installation stability.

[0018] 2. The adjustment mechanism in this technical solution allows for manual rotation of the bidirectional lead screw to adjust the mounting frame accordingly when the insertion sleeve and fixing post on the new data processor body deviate during upgrades or maintenance. This adjustment is achieved by rotating the threaded moving block to ensure precise locking and fixing.

[0019] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

Specific Implementation Example 1:

[0030] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, a data processor mounting card-connecting mechanism of this utility model includes:

[0031] Mounting base 1 and data processor body 2, the mounting base 1 is located at the bottom of the data processor body 2, and the top of the mounting base 1 is provided with two pairs of mounting frames 3;

[0032] Two pairs of insertion and fixing mechanisms 4 are provided, which are located between the mounting base 1 and the data processor body 2, and are used to drive the mounting base 1 and the data processor body 2 to connect and fix them.

[0033] A pair of adjustment mechanisms 7 are provided at the bottom of the mounting frame 3, and the adjustment mechanisms 7 are used to adjust the position of the mounting frame 3;

[0034] The insertion and fixing mechanism 4 includes a fixing post 401 fixedly connected inside the mounting frame 3. An insertion frame 402 is fitted onto the outer wall of the fixing post 401, and the outer wall of the insertion frame 402 contacts the inner wall of the mounting frame 3. A cover plate 403 is fixedly connected to the top of the insertion frame 402, and side plates 404 are fixedly connected to both sides of the cover plate 403. The top of the cover plate 403 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the data processor body 2. U-shaped plates 405 are fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting frame 3, and multiple insertion rods 406 are provided on one side of each U-shaped plate 405. Multiple first insertion rods are chiseled into each pair of U-shaped plates 405. Multiple second through holes are drilled between the two sides of a pair of side plates 404. Multiple third through holes are drilled on both sides of the mounting frame 3. Multiple slots 409 are drilled on both sides of the insertion sleeve frame 402. A pull plate 407 is fixedly connected between the ends of multiple insertion rods 406 away from the U-shaped plate 405. The ends of the insertion rods 406 away from the pull plate 407 pass through the first through hole, the second through hole and the third through hole in sequence, and extend into the slot 409. Springs 408 are sleeved on the outer walls of multiple insertion rods 406. The two ends of the springs 408 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the pull plate 407 and the U-shaped plate 405, respectively.

[0035] In the specific implementation process, firstly, the four pairs of pulling plates 407 are pulled to move apart, causing multiple pairs of insert rods 406 to extend out from inside the mounting frame 3. Then, the data processor body 2 is taken out, and the two pairs of insertion sleeves 402 are driven to pass through the mounting frame 3 and fit onto the two pairs of fixing posts 401, causing the mounting base 1 and the data processor body 2 to come into contact. Then, the tension of the four pairs of pulling plates 407 is released, and under the elastic reset action of the spring 408, the multiple pairs of insert rods 406 are driven to reset towards each other, passing through the second through hole on the side plate 404 and the third through hole on the mounting frame 3 in sequence, and inserted into the slot 409 on the insertion sleeve 402 for insertion and limiting, so as to drive the mounting base 1 and the data processor body 2 to be snapped and fixed. Compared with the screw installation method, no tools are needed for disassembly and assembly, reducing trouble and simplifying operation. At the same time, it is not easy to wear and ensures its installation stability.

[0036] The top of the mounting frame 3 is fixedly connected to a hollow rubber pad 5, and the top of the hollow rubber pad 5 is in contact with the bottom of the cover plate 403, while the inner wall of the hollow rubber pad 5 is in contact with the outer wall of the insertion sleeve frame 402.

[0037] The hollow rubber pad 5 acts as a buffer, cushioning the data processor body 2 when it vibrates with the industrial equipment, thus reducing the impact of vibration on the snap-fit ​​fixation.

[0038] Among them, the outer wall of the pull plate 407 is fitted with a pair of flexible sleeves 6, and the pair of flexible sleeves 6 are arranged front and back.

[0039] The flexible sleeve 6 improves grip comfort for staff. Specific Implementation Example 2:

[0041] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the adjusting mechanism 7 includes a bidirectional lead screw 701. The top of the mounting base 1 is chiseled with two pairs of mounting grooves 702. The outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 701 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 1 and a pair of mounting grooves 702 respectively through bearings. A pair of threaded moving blocks 703 are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 701. The outer wall of the threaded moving blocks 703 is in contact with the inner wall of the mounting grooves 702. The top of the threaded moving blocks 703 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame 3. An anti-slip rotating block 704 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 701.

[0042] In the specific implementation process, when the data processor body 2 is upgraded or replaced with a new data processor body 2, and the position of the insertion sleeve 402 on the new data processor body 2 deviates from that of the fixed post 401, the anti-slip rotating block 704 is operated to rotate, which drives the bidirectional lead screw 701 to rotate, causing a pair of threaded moving blocks 703 to move towards or away from each other inside a pair of mounting slots 702, and causing the mounting frame 3 to perform a corresponding position adjustment, so that the insertion sleeve 402 and the fixed post 401 are aligned after adjustment, thereby enabling the subsequent mounting base 1 and the new data processor body 2 to be accurately snapped and fixed.

[0043] The outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 701 is provided with a pair of external threads in opposite directions. A threaded through hole is drilled between the two sides of the threaded moving block 703, and the threaded moving block 703 is sleeved on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 701 through the threaded through hole and threadedly connected to it.

[0044] By providing a pair of external threads in opposite directions on the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 701, when the bidirectional lead screw 701 rotates, it drives the threaded moving block 703 to move linearly along the bidirectional lead screw 701 with the assistance of the threaded through hole.

[0045] The mounting base 1 has multiple evenly distributed heat sinks 8 fixedly connected to its top end, and the top ends of the multiple heat sinks 8 are in contact with the bottom end of the data processor body 2.

[0046] The heat sink 8 facilitates the rapid dissipation of heat generated by the data processor 2 during operation.

[0047] The circuits, electronic components, and chip modules involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The content protected by this utility model does not involve any improvement to the software and methods.

[0048] All standard parts used in the application documents can be purchased from the market. All components in this application document can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. The electrical components mentioned in this document are all electrically connected to the external main controller and power supply, and the main controller is a conventional known device that can play a control role.

[0049] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0050] In use, when a misalignment occurs between the insertion sleeve 402 and the fixed post 401 on the data processor body 2, the anti-slip rotating block 704 is rotated, causing the bidirectional lead screw 701 to rotate. This causes a pair of threaded moving blocks 703 to move towards or away from each other within a pair of mounting slots 702, thus adjusting the mounting frame 3 accordingly. After adjustment, the insertion sleeve 402 and the fixed post 401 are aligned. After adjustment, the four pairs of pulling plates 407 are pulled away, causing multiple pairs of insertion rods 406 to extend out from inside the mounting frame 3. Next, take the data processor body 2, and drive the two pairs of insertion sleeves 402 to pass through the mounting frame 3 and fit onto the two pairs of fixing posts 401, so that the mounting base 1 and the data processor body 2 come into contact. Then, release the tension of the four pairs of pull plates 407, so that under the elastic reset action of the spring 408, the multiple pairs of plug rods 406 will reset towards each other, pass through the second through hole on the side plate 404 and the third through hole on the mounting frame 3 in sequence, and be inserted into the slot 409 on the insertion sleeve 402 for insertion and limiting, so as to drive the mounting base 1 and the data processor body 2 to be snapped and fixed.

[0051] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.
