Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of server slide rail technology, and in particular to a server slide rail locking structure. Background Technology

[0002] Slide rails, as a common mechanical component, are widely used in various scenarios requiring sliding functionality, such as server racks. Server chassis are connected to the rack via slide rails, allowing them to be pulled out or moved in. Currently, some server chassis are directly connected to the slide rails using fasteners. This necessitates additional tools for installing and removing both the chassis and slide rails, resulting in insufficient ease of installation and disassembly. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, this utility model provides a servo slide rail locking structure that is easy to assemble and disassemble and has good stability.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A servo slide rail locking structure includes a rail body and a locking assembly disposed on the outer side of the rail body. The rail body has a limiting groove that communicates with the upper edge of the rail body. The locking assembly includes a locking member and an elastic member. The locking member is configured to slide along the rail body between a first position and a second position. The elastic member is configured to drive the locking member to slide from the first position to the second position and hold it in the second position. When the locking member is in the second position, the locking member at least partially enters the limiting groove to close the limiting groove and lock the limiting pin. The locking member has a guide portion at one end facing the limiting groove. When the guide portion is subjected to downward pressure, the locking member slides from the second position to the first position, causing the limiting groove to open.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution: when the limiting pin on the server enters the limiting groove from top to bottom, the limiting pin first contacts the guide part and applies pressure to the guide part. After the guide part is pressed, the locking member moves from the second position to the first position. At this time, the limiting pin can smoothly enter the limiting groove. Under the action of the elastic member, the locking member moves from the first position to the second position, and the locking member partially enters the limiting groove to lock the limiting pin, preventing the limiting pin from coming out of the limiting groove. When it is necessary to disassemble the server, the locking member is manually moved from the second position to the first position, and then the limiting pin can be removed from the limiting groove from bottom to top. The entire installation and disassembly process does not require any tools, is convenient to use, and has good stability.

[0007] Preferably, the rail body has a sliding groove on one side of the limiting groove, and the sliding groove forms a preset acute angle with the length direction of the rail body. The locking member has a sliding pin that slides within the sliding groove. The sliding direction of the locking member forms an acute angle with the length direction of the rail body. When the guide part is pressed, the component force of the locking member in the sliding groove direction is greater, which can better overcome the sliding friction. Therefore, the locking member can slide more smoothly from the second position to the first position.

[0008] Preferably, a reinforcing block is provided on the rail body at a position corresponding to the slide groove, and the slide groove is disposed on the reinforcing block. The reinforcing block increases the strength around the slide groove, making the slide groove less prone to deformation and ensuring more stable sliding of the locking component.

[0009] Preferably, the reinforcing block is directly stamped onto the rail body, with its outer surface extending 0.5-0.7 mm beyond the outer surface of the rail body. Stamping the reinforcing block onto the rail body increases the structural strength of this part of the slide groove and rail body.

[0010] Preferably, the acute angle formed by the sliding direction of the locking member and the length direction of the rail is configured as α, where 35°≤α≤45°. This angle can, on the one hand, increase the component force in the rail direction to better overcome sliding friction, and on the other hand, control the size of the locking member in the width direction of the rail.

[0011] Preferably, the guide portion is configured as a guide slope, with the end of the guide slope near the limiting groove being lower than the end away from the limiting groove, and the angle β formed by the guide slope and the length direction of the rail body is 10°≤β≤25°.

[0012] Preferably, the rail body is provided with a sliding groove on one side of the limiting groove, the sliding groove is distributed parallel to the length direction of the rail body, the locking member is provided with a sliding pin that slides along the sliding groove; the locking member is provided with a guide groove distributed parallel to the sliding groove, a guide member is provided in the guide groove, the rail body is provided with a connecting hole, and the guide member passes through the guide groove and connects to the connecting hole.

[0013] Preferably, the elastic element is configured as a compression spring. The rail body is provided with a first positioning part, and the locking element is provided with a second positioning part. One end of the compression spring is connected to the first positioning part, and the other end of the compression spring is connected to the second positioning part. The compression spring is positioned by the first and second positioning parts to prevent it from loosening or dislodging, thereby further improving stability.

[0014] Preferably, the elastic element is configured as a spring sheet, one end of which is integrally connected to the locking element. A support portion is provided on the rail body at a location corresponding to the other end of the spring sheet, and the other end of the spring sheet elastically abuts against the support portion. The spring sheet and the locking element are an integral structure, which is equivalent to eliminating one component and the positioning of the elastic element, further optimizing the structure, reducing costs, and improving stability.

[0015] Preferably, the limiting groove is configured as a V-shaped groove, and the opening end of the V-shaped groove is provided with an avoidance notch.

[0016] Therefore, this utility model has the advantages of being easy to use and having good stability. Attached Figure Description

When the locking member 20 is in the second position, the locking member 20 at least partially enters the limiting groove 10 to close the limiting groove 10 and lock the limiting pin 3. The locking member 20 has a guide portion 23 at one end facing the limiting groove 10. When the guide portion 23 is subjected to downward pressure, the locking member 20 slides from the second position to the first position, causing the limiting groove 10 to open. The limiting pin 3 is installed on the side of the servo. The circumferential surface of the limiting pin 3 is usually provided with an annular groove 30 to facilitate axial limiting after the limiting pin is engaged in the limiting groove.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, a sliding groove 11 is provided on one side of the limiting groove 10 on the rail body 1. The sliding groove 11 forms a preset acute angle with the length direction of the rail body 1. The locking member 20 is provided with a sliding pin 22 that slides in the sliding groove 11.

In this embodiment, the limiting groove 10 is configured as a V-shaped groove, and the opening end of the V-shaped groove is provided with an avoidance notch 100.

[0033] In this embodiment, the sliding direction of the locking member forms an angle α with the length direction of the rail body, so that when the limiting pin enters the limiting groove from top to bottom, the component force in the sliding direction is greater, which can better overcome the sliding friction and make the limiting pin enter the limiting groove more smoothly and stably; the connection, locking and disengagement of the limiting pin and the limiting groove do not require any tools, making it more convenient to use.

[0034] Example 2: As Figures 5-8 The illustrated server slide rail locking structure includes a rail body 1 and a locking assembly 2 disposed on the outside of the rail body 1. The rail body 1 has a limiting groove 10 that penetrates the upper edge of the rail body 1. The locking assembly 2 includes a locking member 20 and an elastic member 21. The locking member 20 is configured to slide along the rail body 1 between a first position and a second position. The elastic member 21 is configured to drive the locking member 20 to slide from the first position to the second position and hold it in the second position. When the locking member 20 is in the second position, the locking member 20 at least partially enters the limiting groove 10 to close the limiting groove 10 and lock the limiting pin 3. The locking member 20 has a guide portion 23 at one end facing the limiting groove 10. When the guide portion 23 is subjected to downward pressure, the locking member 20 slides from the second position to the first position, causing the limiting groove 10 to open.

[0035] The rail body 1 is provided with a sliding groove 11 on one side of the limiting groove 10. The sliding groove 11 is distributed parallel to the length direction of the rail body 1. The locking member 20 is provided with a sliding pin 22 that slides along the sliding groove 11.

[0036] The guide portion 23 is configured as a guide slope 230. The end of the guide slope 230 near the limiting groove 10 is lower than the end away from the limiting groove 10. The angle β formed by the guide slope 230 and the length direction of the rail body 1 is 10°≤β≤25°. In this embodiment, β=25°.

[0037] In this embodiment, the elastic element 21 is configured as a compression spring 210.

[0038] In this embodiment, the sliding is achieved by using a sliding groove and a sliding pin, and the sliding direction is further guided and limited by a guide groove and a guide member, making the sliding of the locking member more stable. By reasonably configuring the included angle β of the guide slope, it is ensured that the component force of the limit pin on the guide part can stably push the locking member from the second position to the first position. Overall, it is convenient to use and has good stability.
