[0001] This utility model relates to the photovoltaic field, and in particular to an electrostatic protection structure for the front panel of a chassis. Background Technology

[0002] Anti-static chassis design ensures stable computer operation and safety in multiple ways. Its core benefits include: grounding and anti-static coatings guide potential thousands to tens of thousands of volts of static charge to the ground, preventing electrostatic discharge from damaging low-voltage precision hardware such as the CPU, motherboard, and graphics card. This prevents direct hardware burnout leading to issues like no startup or blue screens, and also reduces hidden damage, extending hardware lifespan. Simultaneously, it prevents electrostatic interference with hard drive head positioning or damage to solid-state drive storage structures, preventing data loss or corruption caused by physical bad sectors or data corruption. Furthermore, it reduces hardware contact problems and signal transmission interference caused by static electricity, minimizing frequent crashes and lag, ensuring long-term stable operation and improving the user experience.

[0003] Traditional computer cases use a wire directly connected to prevent static electricity. While this can effectively dissipate static electricity, it severely compromises aesthetics and is out of step with the practical and aesthetically pleasing requirements of modern computer assembly. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an electrostatic protection structure for the front panel of the chassis, solving the problems of direct connection of wires for electrostatic protection and unsightly appearance in traditional chassis.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an electrostatic protection structure for the front panel of a chassis, comprising a front panel, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the side wall of the front panel, a wire sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft, a protective shell provided outside the rotating shaft, the bottom surface of the protective shell being connected to the side wall of the front panel, a through groove being provided on the outer wall of the protective shell, the end of the wire away from the front panel passing through the through groove and connected to a connecting piece, a rotating groove being provided at the top of the protective shell, an adjusting cover being rotatably connected inside the rotating groove, and the end of the rotating shaft away from the front panel being connected to the inner wall of the adjusting cover.

[0006] As a further technical solution of this utility model, heat dissipation fins are installed on the side wall of the front panel, and a chassis body is provided behind the front panel. The bottom surface of the chassis body is connected to a limiting groove, and the bottom surface of the front panel is connected to a limiting plate. The inner wall of the limiting groove is in contact with the side wall of the limiting plate.

[0007] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a set of first connecting blocks are connected to the side wall of the front plate, and a first sliding groove is provided on the first connecting block.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a set of second connecting blocks are connected to the side wall of the chassis body, and a second sliding groove is provided on the second connecting block.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, each group of first connecting blocks and second connecting blocks is provided with two, and the sliding blocks are slidably connected inside the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove of both groups.

[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a first locking block is connected to the bottom surface of each sliding block, and two second locking blocks are connected to each second connecting block. The outer surface of each first locking block is engaged with the outer surface of one of the second locking blocks.

[0011] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a top cover is movably connected to the chassis body, a slot is opened on the back of the front panel, the outer surface of the top cover is engaged with the inner wall of the slot, and four bottom pads are connected to the bottom surface of the chassis body.

[0012] This utility model provides an electrostatic protection structure for the front panel of a chassis, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art: This utility model uses a protective shell to conceal the rotating shaft and wires, preventing exposed wires from disrupting the overall visual integrity of the front panel of the chassis. Compared to traditional exposed wires, it significantly improves the simplicity and neatness of the chassis appearance, meeting the aesthetic demands of modern computer assembly. Through the structural design of the rotating shaft and the adjustment cover, the rotating shaft can be rotated flexibly by rotating the adjustment cover, thereby realizing the adjustment of the wire length. When wiring is needed, the appropriate length can be rotated out, and when not needed, the wire can be rolled into the protective shell. This avoids the messy tangling caused by excessively long wires, and also eliminates concerns about excessively short wires affecting grounding operations, thus balancing the practicality of electrostatic protection with ease of use.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution for an electrostatic protection structure for the front panel of a chassis: It includes a front panel 1, a rotating shaft 2 rotatably connected to the side wall of the front panel 1, a wire 3 sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 2, a protective shell 4 outside the rotating shaft 2, the bottom surface of the protective shell 4 connected to the side wall of the front panel 1, a through groove 5 on the outer wall of the protective shell 4, the end of the wire 3 away from the front panel 1 passing through the through groove 5 and connected to a connecting piece 6, a rotating groove 7 at the top of the protective shell 4, an adjusting cover 8 rotatably connected inside the rotating groove 7, the end of the rotating shaft 2 away from the front panel 1 connected to the inner wall of the adjusting cover 8, and the adjusting cover 8 is used to adjust the length of the wire 3 and the electrostatic protection structure of the front panel of the chassis. The key component for stable operation is the inner wall of the rotating shaft 2, which is connected to the end away from the front plate 1. When the user rotates the adjustment cover 8, it can drive the rotating shaft 2 to rotate synchronously on the side wall of the front plate 1, so that the wire 3 sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 2 can be wound up or unwound with the rotation. Then, the extension length of the wire 3 can be flexibly adjusted through the through groove 5 on the outer wall of the protective shell 4 to adapt to the grounding requirements. At the same time, the adjustment cover 8 is rotatably connected in the rotating groove 7 at the top of the protective shell 4. The rotating groove 7 provides a stable rotation trajectory for it, preventing the adjustment cover 8 from shifting and falling off. In addition, the adjustment cover 8 covers the top of the protective shell 4, which can hide the top of the rotating shaft 2 and other internal components together with the protective shell 4, reducing exposure, preventing dust and improving aesthetics.

[0017] The front panel 1 has heat dissipation fins 9 installed on its side wall. The chassis body 10 is located behind the front panel 1. The bottom surface of the chassis body 10 is connected to a limiting groove 11, and the bottom surface of the front panel 1 is connected to a limiting plate 12. The inner wall of the limiting groove 11 is in contact with the side wall of the limiting plate 12. The limiting plate 12 is connected to the bottom surface of the front panel 1. When installing the front panel 1, the limiting plate 12 needs to be aligned and embedded in the limiting groove 11 on the bottom surface of the chassis body 10. The inner wall of the limiting groove 11 is in close contact with the side wall of the limiting plate 12, which can provide a bottom positioning reference for the front panel 1, avoid the front panel 1 from shifting left or right or tilting during installation, and ensure that the connection position between the front panel 1 and the chassis body 10 is accurate.

[0018] Among them, the side wall of the front plate 1 is connected to a set of first connecting blocks 13, and the first connecting blocks 13 are provided with first sliding grooves 14.

[0019] The chassis body 10 has a set of second connecting blocks 15 connected to its side wall, and the second connecting blocks 15 have a second sliding groove 16.

[0020] Each set of first connecting blocks 13 and second connecting blocks 15 has two units. The interiors of the two sets of first sliding grooves 14 and second sliding grooves 16 are slidably connected to sliding blocks 17. Sliding blocks 17 are key components for achieving detachable connection between the front panel 1 and the chassis body 10. They can be slidably connected to the first sliding groove 14 of the first connecting block 13 on the side wall of the front panel 1 and the second sliding groove 16 of the second connecting block 15 on the side wall of the chassis body 10. By bridging the two sliding grooves, a connection bridge is built between the two. The first locking block 18 on its bottom surface can engage with the second locking block 19 on the second connecting block 15, thereby stably fixing the front panel 1 to the chassis body 10 and preventing it from loosening and falling off.

[0021] Each sliding block 17 has a first locking block 18 connected to its bottom surface, and each second connecting block 15 has two second locking blocks 19 connected to it. The outer surface of each first locking block 18 is engaged with the outer surface of one of the second locking blocks 19.

[0022] The chassis body 10 is movably connected to a top cover 20. A slot 21 is provided on the back of the front panel 1. The outer surface of the top cover 20 is engaged with the inner wall of the slot 21. Four bottom pads 22 are connected to the bottom surface of the chassis body 10. After the front panel 1 is fixed to the chassis body 10 by components such as sliding blocks 17, the fitting structure of the slot 21 and the top cover 20 can further restrict the movement space of the front panel 1 from the top, reduce the shaking of the front panel 1 caused by external force, and form a double upper and lower limit with the bottom limiting plate 12 and limiting groove 11, thereby improving the stability of the overall chassis structure.

[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, place the entire chassis device in the designated area to ensure that the base pad 22 stably supports the chassis body 10, laying a stable foundation for subsequent operations. When electrostatic protection is required, rotate the adjustment cover 8 in the top groove 7 of the protective shell 4. Since the inner wall of the adjustment cover 8 is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 2 away from the front plate 1, the adjustment cover 8 will drive the rotating shaft 2 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the wire 3 sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 2 will be extended and retracted with the rotation of the rotating shaft 2. The end of the wire 3 away from the front plate 1 can be extended or retracted through the through groove 5 on the outer wall of the protective shell 4, thereby flexibly adjusting the length of the wire 3. After adjusting the length of the wire 3 to meet the grounding requirements, connect the connecting piece 6 at the end of the wire 3 to the external ground wire. The static electricity generated by the front panel 1 and the chassis body 10 can then be conducted to the ground through the wire 3, thus completing the electrostatic protection. If the front panel 1 needs to be removed, slide the sliding block 17, which is connected in the first sliding groove 14 and the second sliding groove 16, downwards. When the sliding block 17 moves downwards, the first locking block 18 on its bottom surface will disengage from the second locking block 19 on the second connecting block 15, and the sliding block 17 will disengage from the second sliding groove 16, releasing the fixing restriction between the front panel 1 and the chassis body 10. Then remove the front panel 1. During installation, the locking groove 21, in conjunction with the limiting of the upper cover 20 and the limiting plate 12, and the limiting groove 11, can prevent the front panel 1 from tilting or being improperly installed during installation.

[0024] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model are implemented according to conventional methods in the art, unless otherwise specified or limited.
