Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solid-state drive (SSD) mounting structure technology, and more specifically, to a server SSD mounting structure. Background Technology
[0002] A hard drive consists of one or more aluminum or glass platters covered with a ferromagnetic material. Hard drives can be classified into three types: mechanical hard drives, solid-state drives (SSDs), and hybrid hard drives. SSDs, also known as solid-state drives, are hard drives made of solid-state electronic storage chip arrays. They are basically the same as ordinary hard drives in terms of product shape and size. Currently, SSDs are generally supported and installed with the help of a special hard drive bracket.
[0003] The following problems may occur when installing a hard drive:
[0004] 1. Current hard drive mounting methods generally rely on traditional screw fastening. When installing or removing each hard drive, operators must use screwdrivers or other tools to precisely align the screw holes on the side wall or bottom of the hard drive and screw in or out multiple small screws one by one. This process is not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but also prone to screw stripping or falling out, resulting in low hard drive replacement efficiency.
[0005] 2. Existing fixed structure designs are rigid and lack necessary size compatibility. They typically only accommodate hard drives of a single form factor. However, in real-world applications, it's often necessary to install hard drives of different physical sizes simultaneously. Faced with this requirement, simple adjustments cannot stably accommodate hard drives of varying sizes.
[0006] 3. The core flaw of existing fixing methods lies in the lack of a reliable rigid constraint mechanism. Whether relying on screws or simple clips, they often cannot provide sufficient and rigid physical limits for the hard drive's multiple degrees of freedom. After installation, there may still be slight play between the hard drive's body and the fixing structure. During device operation, continuous vibration may cause the hard drive to undergo micro-displacement or wobbling within these play areas, affecting the normal startup and operation of services.
[0007] To address the aforementioned problems, we have developed a server solid-state drive (SSD) installation structure. Utility Model Content

[0018] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a server solid-state drive installation structure, which has the following advantages:
[0020] 1. This utility model increases the distance between the extrusion plate and the limiting plate by pulling the extrusion plate to the right, thus facilitating the placement of the solid-state drive body between the extrusion plate and the limiting plate. Furthermore, the spring force of the extrusion plate and the limiting plate limit both sides of the solid-state drive body. This installation structure not only facilitates the installation of the solid-state drive body, but also allows for the adjustment of the distance between the extrusion plate and the limiting plate to fix solid-state drive bodies of different sizes.
[0021] 2. This utility model uses two inclined blocks to fix the front and rear sides of the solid-state drive body, which improves the fixing strength of the mounting structure for the solid-state drive body. At the same time, by moving the first pressing plate, the trigger plate presses the limiting post, causing the two inclined blocks to release the fixation of the solid-state drive body at the same time, thus improving the disassembly efficiency of the solid-state drive.
[0022] 3. By rotating the threaded rod, the second extrusion plate moves downward and squeezes the teeth of the toothed plate, causing the first extrusion plate to tend to move to the left, increasing the extrusion force between the first extrusion plate and the solid-state drive body. When the mounting structure is subjected to vibration, the second extrusion plate cannot move to the right, thereby improving the fixing effect of the mounting structure on the solid-state drive body and improving the stability of the mounting structure.

[0035] Please see Figures 1-5A server solid-state drive (SSD) mounting structure includes a mounting plate 1. A limiting plate 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 1. Two symmetrically distributed connecting plates 3 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 1. A second limiting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the other side of the mounting plate 1. Both connecting plates 3 are fixedly connected to the limiting plate 2 and the second limiting plate 4. Sliding grooves are provided on opposite sides of the connecting plates 3. Sliding blocks 5 are slidably connected within the sliding grooves of the connecting plates 3. A pressing plate 6 is fixedly connected between the two sliding blocks 5. Two springs 7 are fixedly connected between the pressing plate 1 and the second limiting plate 4. The second limiting plate 4 is provided with a through groove. A sliding plate 8 is slidably connected in the through groove of the second limiting plate 4. The sliding plate 8 is fixedly connected to the extrusion plate 6. The connecting plate 3 is provided with a square groove. A wedge block 9 is slidably connected in the square groove of the connecting plate 3. A spring 10 is provided in the square groove of the connecting plate 3. The two ends of the spring 10 are fixedly connected to the adjacent wedge block 9 and the adjacent connecting plate 3, respectively. A triggering structure is provided on the connecting plate 3. A fixing structure is provided on the sliding plate 8. The first limiting plate 2 and the extrusion plate 6 are both set in an L shape. The first limiting plate 2 and the second limiting plate 4 are mirror images of each other.
[0036] Working principle: When installing the solid-state drive (SSD) body 20, first pull the compression plate 6 to the right. The compression plate slides to the right along the two connecting plates 3 via two sliders 5, compressing the two springs 7. This increases the distance between the limiting plate 2 and the compression plate 19. Then, place the SSD body 20 between the limiting plate 2 and the compression plate 6. During placement, the SSD body 20 will compress the inclined surfaces of the two wedge blocks 9, causing the two wedge blocks to move away from each other. At the same time, the spring 10 is compressed. When the lower side of the SSD body 20 contacts the mounting plate 1, the two wedge blocks return to their original position under the elastic force of the spring 10. The lower sides of the two wedge blocks 9 then contact the SSD body 20, limiting the front and rear sides of the SSD body 20. When the compression plate 6 is released, the compression plate 19 returns to its original position under the elastic force of the spring 7. The limiting plate 2 and the compression plate 19 then limit the left and right sides of the SSD body 20, thus completing the installation of the SSD body 20. When disassembling the solid-state drive body 20, pull the extrusion plate 6 to the right again and press the two inclined blocks to make the two wedge blocks 9 lose contact with the solid-state drive body 20, and then remove the solid-state drive body 20.
[0037] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6The triggering structure includes a limiting post 11, a through groove on the upper side of the connecting plate 3, the limiting post 11 sliding within the through groove of the connecting plate 3, the through groove of the connecting plate 3 communicating with a square groove, the limiting post 11 being fixedly connected to an adjacent wedge block 9, a sliding groove on the upper side of the connecting plate 3, a trigger plate 12 being slidably connected within the sliding groove of the connecting plate 3, an inclined surface on one side of the trigger plate 12, the inclined surface of the trigger plate 12 contacting an adjacent limiting post 11, a second sliding plate 13 being slidably connected within the sliding groove on the upper side of the connecting plate 3, the second sliding plate 13 being fixedly connected to an adjacent trigger plate 12, and a fixing post 14 being fixedly connected to the second sliding plate 13.
[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the solid-state drive body 20 is installed, when the solid-state drive body 20 presses against the wedge block 9, the wedge block will drive the limiting post 11 on it to slide along the through groove of the connecting plate 3. When it is necessary to disassemble the solid-state drive body 20, the pressing plate 6 is pulled to the right, the pressing plate 6 moves to the right, and presses against the two fixing posts 14. The two fixing posts 14 respectively drive the sliding plate 13 to move to the right. The limiting plate 4 drives the trigger plate 12 connected to it to move to the right. The inclined surface of the trigger plate 12 presses against the adjacent limiting post 11, so that the limiting post 11 drives the connected wedge block 9 to move, so that the wedge blocks 9 on the front and rear sides move away from each other. When the pressing plate 6 is released, under the elastic force of the spring 10, the two wedge blocks 9 are reset, and the limiting post 11 presses against the trigger plate 12 on the same side, so that the trigger plate 12 and the sliding plate 13 are reset at the same time.
[0039] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The fixed structure includes a toothed plate 15, a mounting plate 1 with a groove, the toothed plate 15 being fixedly connected to the groove of the mounting plate 1, a sliding plate 8 being threadedly connected to a threaded rod 16, the lower end of the threaded rod 16 being rotatably connected to a connector 17, two guide posts 18 being fixedly connected to the lower side of the sliding plate 8, the two guide posts 18 passing through the connector 17, and a pressing plate 19 being fixedly connected to the lower side of the connector 17; the upper side of the toothed plate 15 is flush with the mounting plate 1, the lower side of the pressing plate 19 is set as an inclined surface with the same inclination angle as the teeth of the toothed plate 15, and the mounting plate 1 is provided with multiple heat-conducting grooves evenly distributed.
[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the solid-state drive body 20 is placed, the limiting plate 12 and the squeezing plate 29 limit the solid-state drive body 20. Then, the threaded rod 16 is rotated, and the threaded rod 16 moves downward along the sliding plate 18. The threaded rod 16 drives the connector 17 to move downward, and the connector 17 moves downward along the two guide posts 18. The connector 17 drives the squeezing plate 29 to move downward, and the squeezing plate 29 squeezes the toothed plate 15 downward. As the squeezing plate 29 moves downward, it squeezes the inclined surface of the toothed plate 15, causing the squeezing plate 12 to move downward. The pressure plate tends to move to the left, increasing the pressure between the compression plate 16 and the solid-state drive body 20. When the threaded rod 16 stops rotating, the compression plate 19 and the toothed plate 15 are in a limited position. When the mounting structure is subjected to vibration, the compression plate 19 cannot move to the right, thus improving the fixing effect of the mounting structure on the solid-state drive body 20. To remove the solid-state drive body 20, simply rotate the threaded rod 16 in the opposite direction to make the compression plate 19 lose contact with the toothed plate 15, and then repeat the above operation to remove the solid-state drive body 20. When the solid-state drive body 20 is working, heat is dissipated through the heat conduction grooves on the mounting plate 1, improving the heat dissipation effect of the mounting structure.
[0041] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
