Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of notebook computers, specifically a snap-on notebook computer display reinforcement device. Background Technology

[0002] In modern mobile work and life scenarios, laptops have become indispensable tools. Whether for daily office work, study, or specialized industry tasks, laptops are used extremely frequently. However, traditional laptops have certain shortcomings in terms of the stability of the connection between the display and the keyboard.

[0003] From a materials perspective, some laptops, in pursuit of thinness and aesthetics, use materials like aluminum alloy, which have limited strength. For example, one reason the MacBook Air doesn't have ventilation holes on its bottom is that opening holes in the aluminum alloy, when it's not thick enough, would significantly reduce its strength, potentially causing the laptop to deform even with one hand. Furthermore, in scenarios requiring frequent laptop opening and closing, such as business professionals using it frequently in meetings, the display and keyboard are only connected by a standard hinge. Over time, this hinge can loosen, affecting the normal opening and closing of the display and overall stability.

[0004] This problem is even more pronounced in specialized industries. In sectors such as defense, military, firefighting, oil exploration, and power, workers often need to use laptops in harsh environments including high temperatures, extreme cold, high pressure, drops, water droplets, dust, humidity, mold, and electromagnetic interference. During field oil exploration, laptops may be subjected to bumps and impacts. The ordinary laptop screen connection structure cannot withstand such shocks, easily damaging the connection between the screen and keyboard, thus affecting the normal operation of the equipment and leading to data loss or work interruption.

[0005] Furthermore, existing laptop display connection methods are not convenient enough for installing and removing the screen. Some laptops use complex clip-on structures to secure the battery cover, making installation and removal difficult and reducing the user experience. To address this, we propose a clip-on laptop display reinforcement device. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a snap-fit ​​notebook computer display reinforcement device, which solves the aforementioned problems.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a snap-fit ​​notebook display reinforcement device, comprising a keyboard body and a display screen, wherein the keyboard body and the display screen are connected by a hinge assembly, and a locking assembly is provided at the bottom of the display screen corresponding to both sides of the hinge assembly. The locking assembly is used for secondary connection between the display screen and the hinge assembly, and a display screen insertion protrusion is provided at the lower end of the display screen, which is inserted into the hinge assembly.

[0008] Preferably, the hinge assembly includes connecting protrusions integrally formed on both sides of the keyboard body and a connecting crossbar hinged between the two connecting protrusions, wherein the top of the connecting crossbar is integrally formed with a top insertion protrusion.

[0009] Preferably, the top insertion protrusion has an insertion interface, and the display screen insertion protrusion is inserted into the insertion interface.

[0010] Preferably, an internal hinge groove is provided on the side wall of each of the two connecting protrusions that are close to each other, and a hinge shaft is integrally formed on the connecting crossbar at the position corresponding to the internal hinge groove, and the hinge shaft is rotatably connected to the internal hinge groove.

[0011] Preferably, the top insertion protrusion has side limiting rectangular grooves on both sides, and the locking component is inserted into the side limiting rectangular grooves.

[0012] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a fixing block fixedly installed at the bottom of the keyboard body and a rectangular pin inserted laterally inside the fixing block. One end of the rectangular pin passes through the fixing block and is inserted into a side limiting rectangular groove, and the cross-section of the insertion end of the rectangular pin is rectangular.

[0013] Preferably, the fixing block has two inner wall grooves, and a spring is fixedly installed inside the inner wall groove. The rectangular pin has a side protrusion integrally formed at the position corresponding to the inner wall groove. The side protrusion is slidably engaged with the inner wall groove, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the side protrusion.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a snap-fit ​​notebook computer display reinforcement device, which has the following advantages:

[0015] Significantly improved connection stability: Through a dual approach of initial positioning and secondary connection fixation, compared to a traditional single connection, it effectively prevents loosening between the display and the keyboard. Even in scenarios with frequent opening and closing, it ensures a tight connection, extending the laptop's lifespan. In scenarios with frequent use in daily office work or special industries requiring frequent mobile device movement, it avoids problems such as display wobbling and awkward opening and closing caused by loose connections, improving the stability and reliability of device use.

[0016] Enhanced adaptability to harsh environments: The device's components are tightly and securely connected, effectively resisting external impacts and environmental factors in harsh environments such as high temperatures, extreme cold, high pressure, drops, and collisions. The connection structure possesses a certain degree of buffering and self-adaptation capability, maintaining the connection between the display and the keyboard even when the device is subjected to vibration or external impact. This reduces the risk of device failure due to damage to connection points, ensuring the normal operation of the device in harsh environments and meeting the stringent reliability requirements of specialized industries for laptops.

[0017] Installation and disassembly are convenient and efficient: During installation, simply pull out the locking mechanism to release the lock, plug it in, and then release to secure it; during disassembly, pull out the lock to release the connection. Compared to traditional complex connection structures, no professional tools are required, and the operation is simple and easy to understand, significantly reducing installation and disassembly time. It effectively improves work efficiency, reduces maintenance costs, and allows users to operate it themselves during equipment maintenance, repair, or display screen replacement.

[0018] Achieving synchronized movement for smoother operation: Through a specific connection method, the display screen and related components can move synchronously; that is, when the display screen is flipped, the corresponding components rotate accordingly. This synchronized movement design makes the opening and closing of the laptop smoother and more natural, avoiding the asynchronous movement and lag that may occur with traditional connection methods. This enhances the user experience, providing a more comfortable and convenient experience for both daily office use and professional scenarios. Attached Figure Description
