Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer hardware accessories, and in particular to a hard drive bracket that is easy to lock and disassemble. Background Technology

[0002] Hard drives are the main storage devices in computers used for long-term data storage. Hard drive brackets are accessories used to install and fix hard drives. They can effectively fix hard drives, prevent them from vibrating and colliding during operation, thereby improving the lifespan of hard drives, enabling quick replacement or addition of hard drives, clearly labeling hard drives for easy management and maintenance by administrators, and improving the efficiency of equipment use.

[0003] Existing hard drive brackets are mainly installed by screwing them into the computer case. The hard drive is also secured to the bracket with multiple screws. While this method is secure, it requires screwdrivers and other tools for disassembly and assembly, making the process cumbersome. Especially in multi-hard drive scenarios such as servers, the large number of screws required for disassembly and assembly significantly extends maintenance time and is quite inconvenient.

[0004] Therefore, a new type of hard drive bracket has been developed that allows for quick locking and unlocking of the hard drive bracket and hard drive, reducing operational complexity and improving maintenance efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing hard drive brackets and hard drives, which require multiple screws for installation and screwdrivers for disassembly, resulting in cumbersome operation steps and significantly extended maintenance time, this utility model provides a hard drive bracket that facilitates quick locking and disassembly of the hard drive bracket and hard drive, reducing operational complexity and improving maintenance efficiency.

[0006] Technical solution: A hard drive bracket that is easy to lock and disassemble includes a bracket, a tray, a buckle, a locking plate, a first spring, a connecting plate, a second spring, and a guide pin. The tray is slidably connected to both the left and right sides inside the bracket. Multiple first springs connect the tray to the bracket. Two buckles are connected to the tray on the side that is close to each other. The locking plates are slidably connected to both the left and right sides of the bracket. Multiple second springs connect the locking plates to the bracket. The connecting plate is slidably connected to the lower middle part of the bracket. Guide pins are connected to the connecting plate. The locking plates slide and engage with the guide pins through a sliding groove.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the front of the bracket has two connecting holes, one on the left and one on the right.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a handle is also included, with a handle connected to the front side of the connecting plate.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a dustproof plate, a fixing button, and a ventilation plate are also included. The ventilation plate is connected to the front of the bracket, and the dustproof plate is rotatably connected to the front side of the bracket. The fixing button is rotatably connected to the dustproof plate, and the fixing button is threadedly connected to the dustproof plate.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the dustproof plate has a mesh structure.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the ventilation plate is a grille structure.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: 1. The present invention allows the connecting plate to slide forward by pulling the handle, which in turn causes the card plate to slide inward, so that the card plate can be separated from the chassis, and then the bracket can be pulled out. When it is necessary to disassemble the hard drive, the tray can be directly squeezed outward to disassemble the hard drive. This achieves the effect of facilitating the quick locking and disassembly of the hard drive bracket and the hard drive, reducing the complexity of operation and improving maintenance efficiency.

[0013] 2. This utility model allows the hard drive to dissipate heat through a ventilation plate during operation, while a dustproof plate blocks dust. When cleaning the dustproof plate is needed, the fixing knob can be rotated to open the dustproof plate, and then a blower can be used to clean it. This achieves the effect of dust prevention for the hard drive while facilitating cleaning and maintenance. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] Although this invention may be described with respect to a particular application or industry, those skilled in the art will recognize its broader applicability. Those skilled in the art will understand that terms such as "above," "below," "upward," "downward," etc., are used to describe the drawings and not to indicate a limitation on the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. Any numerical designations such as "first" or "second" are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

[0021] A hard drive bracket that is easy to lock and remove, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the bracket includes a support 1, a support plate 3, a buckle 4, a locking plate 7, a handle 9, a first spring 10, a connecting plate 11, a second spring 12, and a guide pin 13. The front of the support 1 has two connecting holes 2 on the left and right sides. The support plate 3 is slidably connected to both sides of the support 1. Each support plate 3 is connected to the support 1 by four first springs 10. Each support plate 3 has two buckles 4 connected to the sides of the support plate 3. The left and right sides of the support 1 are slidably connected to the locking plate 7. Each locking plate 7 is connected to the support 1 by four second springs 12. The lower middle part of the support 1 is slidably connected to the connecting plate 11. Each connecting plate 11 is connected to a guide pin 13. Each locking plate 7 slides with the guide pin 13 through a sliding groove 14. A handle 9 is connected to the front of the connecting plate 11.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a dustproof plate 5, a fixing button 6, and a ventilation plate 8. The ventilation plate 8 is connected to the front of the bracket 1, and the dustproof plate 5 is rotatably connected to the front side of the bracket 1. The fixing button 6 is rotatably connected to the dustproof plate 5, and the fixing button 6 is threadedly connected to the dustproof plate 5. The dustproof plate 5 has a mesh structure, and the ventilation plate 8 has a grid structure.

[0023] When using this invention, first move the device to the computer host area where the hard drive bracket 1 will be installed. Then, press the hard drive to be installed between the trays 3. The trays 3 are moved to both sides, causing the first spring 10 to be compressed and contracted. When the fixing hole on the hard drive aligns with the latch 4 on the tray 3, the first spring 10 rebounds, causing the tray 3 and latch 4 to move inward, so that the latch 4 engages in the fixing hole of the hard drive, thus securing the hard drive. Then, insert the bracket 1 into the installation position inside the chassis. During the insertion of the bracket 1, the chassis pressing plate 7 retracts inward, and the second spring 12 is compressed and contracted. When the bracket 1 slides into the designated position in the chassis, the second spring 12 rebounds, causing the plate 7 to slide outward, so that the plate 7 engages in the chassis, thus securing the chassis. Screws can be tightened on the outside of the chassis through the connecting hole 2. The reinforced bracket 1 is fixed and easy to disassemble from the outside. During the operation of the hard drive, the ventilation plate 8 can facilitate heat dissipation, and the dustproof plate 5 can block dust. When the dustproof plate 5 needs to be cleaned, the fixing button 6 can be rotated to open the dustproof plate 5, and then a blower can be used to clean it. When the hard drive bracket 1 needs to be disassembled, the handle 9 can be pulled forward to slide the connecting plate 11 forward, which will move the guide pin 13. Through the sliding cooperation between the guide pin 13 and the plate 7, the plate 7 slides inward, allowing the plate 7 to detach from the chassis, and then the bracket 1 can be pulled out. When the hard drive needs to be disassembled, the tray 3 can be directly squeezed outward to disassemble the hard drive. This makes it easy to quickly lock and disassemble the hard drive bracket 1 and the hard drive, reducing the complexity of operation and improving maintenance efficiency.
