Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an installation device, specifically a solid-state drive (SSD) installation device, and belongs to the field of SSD installation technology. Background Technology

[0002] Solid-state drives (SSDs) are high-performance storage devices that use flash memory chips as the storage medium. Compared with traditional hard disk drives (HDDs), they have significant advantages such as faster read and write speeds, shock and drop resistance, low power consumption, and no noise. They have become the mainstream storage choice for modern computers. The installation of an SSD mainly involves directly plugging it into the motherboard's interface. However, some motherboards that do not have an M.2 interface require an adapter card to install the SSD before connecting the adapter card to the motherboard.

[0003] However, some computer motherboards currently require the installation of M.2 solid-state drives (SSDs) but do not have an M.2 interface or the interface is occupied. In such cases, a PCIe adapter card is needed to install the SSD. When installing an M.2 SSD using an adapter card, one end of the M.2 SSD is first inserted into the interface, and then the other end is fixed to the pre-drilled hole on the adapter card with screws. The screws are small, which not only makes it difficult to align the screws with the holes on the adapter card, but also makes it difficult to control the force applied when fixing the screws. Excessive force can easily damage the adapter card. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a solid-state drive (SSD) installation device to solve the above problems. By using a spring and clamping plate, it can quickly install SSDs of different lengths with M.2 interfaces, and it provides good protection and is easy to operate.

[0005] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a solid-state drive (SSD) installation device, comprising a PCIe adapter card and a fixing mechanism 1 and a connecting mechanism disposed on the PCIe adapter card. An M.2 SSD is mounted on the fixing mechanism 1. A second fixing mechanism 2 is mounted on the PCIe adapter card. The second fixing mechanism 2 includes a sliding groove. The PCIe adapter card has a sliding groove. A guide rod is fixedly connected to the sliding groove and the guide rod. A slider is slidably connected to the sliding groove and the guide rod. A spring is provided between the slider and the PCIe adapter card. A clamping plate located on the surface of the PCIe adapter card is fixedly connected to the slider. A slot is provided on the side wall of the clamping plate, and the slot engages with a groove on the side of the M.2 SSD.

[0006] Preferably, the side of the clamping plate has an arc-shaped structure, and the slot on the side wall of the clamping plate matches the groove on the side wall of the M.2 solid-state drive.

[0007] Preferably, the spring is wound around the outside of the guide rod, and the guide rod has a cylindrical structure.

[0008] Preferably, the second fixing mechanism further includes handles, and the side walls of the clamp are fixedly connected with handles that are inclined on both sides.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes a socket, the PCIe adapter card is equipped with a socket, the socket has a socket port, the socket has a protrusion, one end of the M.2 solid-state drive is inserted into the socket port, and the notch at the end of the M.2 solid-state drive abuts against the protrusion.

[0010] Preferably, the connection mechanism includes a plug-in plate, the side of the PCIe adapter card is provided with the plug-in plate, the plug-in plate is provided with a slot, and the plug-in plate is provided with gold fingers.

[0011] Preferably, the PCIe adapter card is provided with a support mechanism, the support mechanism includes a slide, two slides are slidably connected to each other on the slide groove, and a gasket is glued to each of the two slides, the gasket abutting against the bottom of the M.2 solid-state drive.

[0012] Preferably, the support mechanism further includes slide rails, and the PCIE adapter card has two slide rails communicating with the slide groove. The slide rails and the slide grooves form an inverted U-shaped structure, and one end of the slide bracket is slidably connected to the slide rails.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When the clamp is pulled away from the socket, the spring opens, freeing up installation space for the M.2 solid-state drive. One end of the M.2 solid-state drive is inserted into the inside of the fixing mechanism, where data is connected. However, the other end of the M.2 solid-state drive is not fixed. Gently press the M.2 solid-state drive and release the clamp, the spring retracts, and the slider slides inside the groove. When the slot on the side wall of the clamp abuts against the end groove of the M.2 solid-state drive, the M.2 solid-state drive is clamped and fixed. This method can quickly clamp and fix M.2 solid-state drives of different lengths. It is easy to operate, and for M.2 solid-state drives of different lengths, only the retraction position of the clamp needs to be controlled.

The slot 506 engages with the groove on the side of the M.2 SSD 4.

[0017] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the side of the clamping plate 501 has an arc-shaped structure, and the slot 506 on the side wall of the clamping plate 501 matches the groove on the side wall of the M.2 solid-state drive 4, so that the clamping plate 501 and the M.2 solid-state drive 4 are in closer contact, and the M.2 solid-state drive 4 is prevented from shaking.

[0018] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the spring 507 is wrapped around the outside of the guide rod 504, and the guide rod 504 has a cylindrical structure to prevent the spring 507 from bouncing away.

[0019] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the fixing mechanism 25 also includes a handle 502. The side wall of the clamping plate 501 is fixedly connected with handles 502 that are inclined on both sides, so as to facilitate pulling the clamping plate 501.

[0020] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the fixing mechanism 3 includes a socket 301. The PCIE adapter card 1 is equipped with the socket 301. The socket 301 is provided with a socket 303 and a protrusion 302. One end of the M.2 solid-state drive 4 is inserted into the socket 303, and the notch at the end of the M.2 solid-state drive 4 abuts against the protrusion 302.

However, the other end of the M.2 SSD 4 is not fixed. Gently press the M.2 SSD 4 and release the clamp 501; the spring 507 retracts, and the slider 505 moves within the groove 503. When the clamping plate 501 slides, and the slot 506 on the side wall of the clamping plate 501 abuts against the end groove of the M.2 solid-state drive 4, the M.2 solid-state drive 4 is clamped and fixed. This method can quickly clamp and fix M.2 solid-state drives 4 of different lengths. The operation is convenient. For M.2 solid-state drives 4 of different lengths, only the retraction position of the clamping plate 501 needs to be controlled. The slide bracket 601 located at the slide rail 603 and slide groove 503 can be moved to the bottom center of the M.2 solid-state drive 4, and the two pads 602 abut against the bottom of the M.2 solid-state drive 4 to improve the support effect of the M.2 solid-state drive 4. The installation of the M.2 solid-state drive 4 is completed. The gold fingers 203 of the PCIe adapter card 1 are then plugged into the computer motherboard to complete the installation of the M.2 solid-state drive 4.
