Detailed Implementation

[0027] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0028] Example:

[0029] This embodiment discloses a sliding rail rear bracket locking device.

[0030] The sliding rail rear bracket locking device includes a bracket body 1 and a locking assembly 2.

[0031] exist Figure 1In the embodiments shown in the other accompanying drawings, the direction pointed to by arrow X is the front end of the support body 1, the opposite direction pointed to by arrow X is the rear end of the support body 1, the direction pointed to by arrow Y is the upper end of the support body 1, and the opposite direction pointed to by arrow Y is the lower end of the support body 1.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking assembly 2 includes a top plate 21, connecting rods 22, pins 24, and elastic elements 25. The top plate 21 has two first oblong holes 213, one of which is located at the front end of the other. Two connecting rods 22 are located at the lower ends of both sides of the top plate 21, with hooks 221 protruding from the upper side of a portion of the front end of the support body 1. Specifically, a first groove 222 is formed at the upper end of the connecting rod 22, and the hook 221 is formed at the front end of the connecting rod 22 located in the first groove 222. Two pins 24 are fixed to the support body 1 by passing through the two first oblong holes 213 respectively. The width of the first oblong holes 213 is smaller than the outer diameter of the pin head of the pin 24 to prevent the top plate 21 from detaching from the pins 24. The two pins 24, in conjunction with the two first oblong holes 213, ensure that the top plate 21 rotates in a vertical plane parallel to the length direction of the support body 1. The elastic element 25 is fitted onto the pin 24 located at the front end, with its first end connected to the top plate 21 and its second end connected to the upper end of the bracket body 1. When locked, the front end of the bracket body 1, the connecting rod 22, and the hook 221 form a locking groove.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, preferably, the first waist-shaped hole 213 has two sets, which are spaced apart along the width direction of the support body 1, and the pin 24 also has two sets, which further improves the stability and load-bearing capacity of the top plate 21 when rotating relative to the two pins 24.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, further, a locking hole 211 is formed in the middle of the top plate 21 along the length of the bracket body 1. A locking pin 13 is provided at the upper end of the bracket body 1. When in the locked state, the locking pin 13 passes through the locking hole 211. The length of the locking hole 211 is greater than the length of the locking pin 13, and the width of the locking hole 211 is the same as the width of the locking pin 13. This ensures that the locking pin 13 can rotate relative to the locking hole 211 while preventing the bracket body 1 from shaking relative to the locking assembly 2, thereby improving stability. For example, the locking pin 13 is bent into shape on the bracket body 1 and is perpendicular to the surface of the bracket body 1.

[0035] like Figure 2As shown, a connecting piece 23 is further provided between the front sides of the upper ends of the two connecting rods 22. Exemplarily, the top plate 21, connecting rods 22, and connecting piece 23 are integrally bent into shape. The connection between the top plate 21 and the connecting rod 22 is an arc surface, and the connection between the connecting rod 22 and the connecting piece 23 is also an arc surface, facilitating installation and production while preventing collisions with the cabinet and operators. Preferably, the connecting piece 23 protrudes downwards, improving the structural strength of the connecting rod 22 while also facilitating the operator's movement of the connecting rod 22.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, further, the upper front side of the support body 1 is bent to form a semi-frame 11, which is located at the upper end of the support body 1 with its opening facing downward. The front end of the semi-frame 11, the connecting rod 22, and the hook 221 form a slot. The rear end of the pin 12 is disposed inside the semi-frame 11, and the front end of the pin 12 passes through and protrudes from the front end of the semi-frame 11.

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, there is a gap between the lower rear end of the semi-frame 11 and the upper end of the support body 1. A sliding plate 14 is provided at the rear end of the pin 12. The sliding plate 14 passes through the gap and extends out of the rear end of the semi-frame 11. Two second oblong holes 141 are spaced apart on the sliding plate 14 along the width direction of the support body 1. The second oblong holes 141 are parallel to the length direction of the support body 1. The lower end of the pin 24 located at the front end passes through the second oblong holes 141. An extension 241 is provided on the outer side of the pin 24 at the upper end of the sliding plate 14. The outer diameter of the extension 241 is larger than the width of the second oblong holes 141. The first end of the elastic member 25 is connected to the top plate 21, and the second end is connected to the upper end of the extension 241. The pin 12 can slide in or out of the opening at the front end of the semi-frame 11 in the front-back direction, and drive the sliding plate 14 to slide along the upper surface of the support body 1. For example, the pin 12 is a hollow square cylinder. The extension 241 of the pin 24 restricts the slide plate 14 from tilting upwards, ensuring that the slide plate 14 can slide along the upper surface of the support body 1, reducing the friction between the slide plate 14 and the rear end of the semi-frame 11, and improving the sliding stability and service life of the pin 12 and the slide plate 14. The rear end of the slide plate 14 is connected to the rear end of the semi-frame 11 by an elastic member 25, which facilitates the reset of the pin 12.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, a second groove 212 is further provided at the front end of the top plate 21 to reduce material usage and lower costs.

[0039] In this embodiment, when the slide rail needs to be installed on the rack, such as Figure 4As shown, by moving the connecting piece 23, the connecting rod 22 and the top plate 21 rotate relative to the two pins 24, exposing the semi-frame 11 at the front end of the bracket body 1 and the two pins 12. The rear bracket locking device is then installed into the cabinet column 3, allowing the two pins 12 to pass through the positioning holes 31 of the cabinet, thus positioning the rear bracket locking device. At this time, the elastic element 25 is compressed by the top plate 21, generating elastic force. Figure 5 As shown, when the connecting piece 23 is released, the elastic force of the elastic element 25 drives the connecting rod 22 and the top plate 21 to reset, so that the cabinet column 3 is inserted into the slot formed by the hook part 221, the connecting rod 22 and the half frame 11, which restricts the rear bracket locking device from sliding back and forth relative to the cabinet column 3, thus realizing the installation of the rear bracket locking device. The structure is simple and easy to use.
