[0034] Some embodiments of this application are described in detail. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0035] Example
[0036] Figure 1 This is a top view of an electronic device 1000 provided in one embodiment of this application; Figure 2 for Figure 1 A partial structural schematic diagram of the electronic device 1000 in the illustrated embodiment; Figure 3 for Figure 2 A partial structural schematic diagram of the electronic device 1000 in the first unlocked state in the embodiment shown. Figure 4 for Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the assembly state of the fixed bracket 100 and the first fixed structure 320 in the embodiment shown.
[0037] See Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment provides an electronic device 1000, including a mounting bracket 100, a graphics card 200, and a chassis 300. Combined with... Figure 4 As shown, the mounting bracket 100 includes a connecting part 10 and a fixing part 20. The connecting part 10 is used to connect the target component 201, and the fixing part 20 is used to connect the base component 301. The graphics card 200 includes the target component 201, and the chassis 300 includes a shell 310 and a first fixing structure 320. The first fixing structure 320 is disposed inside the shell 310 and located at one end of the graphics card 200 along the first direction X. The first fixing structure 320 includes the base component 301.
[0038] Thus, the graphics card 200 is fixed relative to the first fixing structure 320 by the fixing bracket 100, thereby achieving the fixation of the graphics card 200 inside the chassis 300. During installation, the fixing bracket 100 can be installed outside the graphics card 200 first, then the graphics card 200 and the fixing bracket 100 can be installed together in the chassis 300, and then the fixing part 20 can be connected to the first fixing structure 320. Optionally, the connecting part 10 can be connected to the target part 201 using fasteners. It should be noted that... Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is only used to illustrate the relative positions of the housing 310 and graphics card 200 with the first fixing structure 320, and does not represent the actual structure of the housing 310 and graphics card 200.
[0039] Figure 5 for Figure 2 A perspective view of the fixing bracket 100 in the illustrated embodiment.
[0040] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 The fixing bracket 100 in this embodiment includes a connecting portion 10, at least two supporting portions 30, and a fixing portion 20. The connecting portion 10 has a first side 11 and a second side 12 opposite to each other along a first direction X. The first side 11 is used to connect the target member 201 (see...). Figure 3 A support portion 30 protrudes along the first direction X and is disposed on the second side 12, and at least two support portions 30 are disposed at intervals relative to each other along the second direction Z. The support portion 30 is used to insert into the base member 301 and is supported on the base member 301 along the second direction Z. A fixing portion 20 protrudes along the first direction X and is disposed on the second side 12. The fixing portion 20 is located on the side of the support portion 30 along the third direction Y, and the fixing portion 20 is used to connect to the base member 301. The first direction X, the second direction Z and the third direction Y intersect each other.
[0041] The aforementioned fixed bracket 100, by providing a fixing part 20 connected to the base member 301 and at least two supporting parts 30 supported on the base member 301, allows the impact force on the target member 201 to be transmitted to the base member 301 through the fixing part 20 and the supporting parts 30 respectively, and disperses the impact force, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the target member 201 when subjected to impact. Since there are at least two supporting parts 30, the structural strength of the fixed bracket 100 is improved, and the impact force on the target member 201 can be transmitted and dispersed more effectively, thus making the fixed bracket 100 suitable for target members 201 with greater weight and volume. Optionally, the first direction X, the second direction Z, and the third direction Y intersect each other. It should be noted that perpendicularity within 5°, or the angle between two adjacent directions between 85° and 95°, can be considered perpendicular. In use, the second direction Z can be the direction of gravity. In this embodiment, there are two supporting parts 30.
[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the fixing part 20 is provided with at least two first fixing holes 20a. The first fixing holes 20a penetrate the fixing part 20 along the third direction Y, and the at least two first fixing holes 20a are spaced apart along the second direction Z. In this way, the fixing part 20 and the first fixing structure 320 (see...) can be connected through the first fixing holes 20a. Figure 4 For example, fasteners can be inserted into the first fixing hole 20a and the first fixing structure 320 respectively to form a tight connection between the fixing part 20 and the first fixing structure 320, thereby improving the fixing reliability of the fixing bracket 100 and making the fixing bracket 100 easy to assemble and disassemble. Since there are at least two first fixing holes 20a, the connection between the fixing part 20 and the first fixing structure 320 is more reliable, thereby making the target part 201 (see...) Figure 3 The impact force received can be more effectively transmitted to the first fixed structure 320, so as to further reduce the risk of damage to the target component 201 when it is impacted.
[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the electronic device 1000 also includes a card slot structure 400, which is disposed in the housing 310 (see...). Figure 1 Inside, and located on the Y-side of the graphics card 200 along the third direction, the graphics card 200 is inserted into the card slot structure 400. It can be understood that, combined with... Figure 5 As shown, by providing at least two support portions 30 and at least two first fixing holes 20a, the risk of the card slot structure 400 cracking is reduced when the target part 201 is subjected to impact. Optionally, the card slot structure 400 can be a PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard) card slot.
[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a space 100a is defined between two adjacent support portions 30 along the second direction Z. Along the third direction Y, the fixing portion 20 is disposed opposite to at least a portion of the space 100a, so that the structure of the fixing bracket 100 is more compact, which is beneficial to reducing the size of the fixing bracket 100 along the second direction Z.
[0045] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the two support portions 30 are located on opposite sides of the connecting portion 10 along the third direction Y, which helps to reduce the size of the connecting portion 10 along the second direction Z and the weight of the fixed bracket 100.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the support portion 30 extends along the third direction Y to further improve the structural strength of the fixed bracket 100 and increase the connection between the support portion 30 and the first fixed structure 320 (see Figure 100). Figure 4 The contact area is increased, thereby improving the reliability of the first fixing structure 320 in supporting the support part 30, and making the target part 201 (see...) Figure 3 The impact force received is more effectively transmitted and dispersed to the first fixed structure 320.
[0047] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the first fixing structure 320 is provided with a slot 320b, which extends along the third direction Y. One end of the slot 320b along the third direction Y has an opening 320a, allowing the support part 30 to be inserted into the slot 320b through the opening 320a. Thus, during installation, the support part 30 can be aligned with the opening 320a, and then the target part 201 and the fixing bracket 100 can be installed together along the third direction Y into the chassis 300 (see...). Figure 1 This makes it suitable for smaller installation spaces within a 300mm chassis.
[0048] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first fixing structure 320 is provided with at least two second fixing holes (not shown in the figure), and the second fixing holes correspond one-to-one with the first fixing holes 20a. The electronic device 1000 also includes at least two first connectors 500, which are respectively inserted into the first fixing holes 20a and the second fixing holes along the third direction Y, so that the fixing part 20 and the first fixing structure 320 form a tight connection. The at least two connections improve the connection reliability between the fixing bracket 100 and the first fixing structure 320, and can more effectively conduct and disperse the target part 201 (see figure). Figure 3 The impact force received.
[0049] Figure 6 for Figure 2 A partial structural schematic diagram of the electronic device 1000 in the first locked state in the embodiment shown. Figure 7 for Figure 2 A partial structural diagram of the first fixing structure 320, the first limiting structure 600, and the fixing bracket 100 in the first locked state in the embodiment shown.
[0050] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the electronic device 1000 also includes a first limiting structure 600. The first limiting structure 600 is disposed on the first fixing structure 320 and has a first unlocked state and a first locked state relative to the first fixing structure 320. Figure 3 As shown, in the first unlocked state, the first limiting structure 600 and the fixing part 20 are staggered along the first direction X, and combined with Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in the first locked state, the fixing part 20 is positioned between the first limiting structure 600 and the first fixing structure 320 along the third direction Y. The first limiting structure 600 can move relative to the first fixing structure 320 along the first direction X to switch between the first unlocked state and the first locked state. Thus, when installing the target part 201, the target part 201 and the fixing bracket 100 are first installed into the chassis 300 in the first unlocked state (see...). Figure 1The support 30 is inserted into the slot 320b, and then the fixing bracket 100 is connected to the first fixing structure 320. Then, the first limiting structure 600 is moved along the first direction X relative to the first fixing structure 320 toward the side closer to the target part 201, so that the first limiting structure 600 switches to the first locking state, thereby limiting the fixing part 20 along the third direction Y, ensuring that the fixing bracket 100 is locked to the chassis 300.
[0051] Figure 8 for Figure 2 A partial structural diagram of the electronic device 1000 in the second unlocked state in the embodiment shown; Figure 9 for Figure 2 A partial structural diagram of the electronic device 1000 in the second locked state in the embodiment shown; Figure 10 for Figure 2 A partial structural schematic diagram of the mounting bracket 700 and the target component 201 in the embodiment shown.
[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figures 8 to 10 As shown, the chassis 300 also includes a second fixing structure 330, which is disposed on the housing 310 (see...). Figure 1 Inside, and located in the graphics card 200 along the first direction X away from the first fixed structure 320 (see...) Figure 2 The electronic device 1000 also includes a mounting bracket 700, a second connector 800, and a second limiting structure 900. The mounting bracket 700 includes a connecting plate 710 and a fixing plate 720. The connecting plate 710 is connected to the target component 201, and the fixing plate 720 is connected to the connecting plate 710. The fixing plate 720 is stacked with a portion of the second fixing structure 330 along the third direction Y. The second connector 800 passes through the fixing plate 720 and the second fixing structure 330 respectively along the third direction Y. The second limiting structure 900 is disposed on the second fixing structure 330. The second limiting structure 900 has a second unlocked state and a second locked state relative to the second fixing structure 330. In the second unlocked state, the second limiting structure 900 and the fixing plate 720 are offset along the first direction X. In the second locked state, the fixing plate 720 is limited to the second fixing structure 330 and the second limiting structure 900 along the third direction Y. The second limiting structure 900 can rotate relative to the second fixed structure 330 about a rotation axis parallel to the second direction Z, so as to switch between the second unlocked state and the second locked state.
[0053] Thus, the end of the target component 201 away from the fixed bracket 100 is fixed to the second fixing structure 330 by the mounting bracket 700. During installation, in the second unlocked state, the mounting bracket 700 and the target component 201 are inserted together into the chassis 300 (see...). Figure 1Then, the second connector 800 is respectively inserted into the fixing plate 720 and the second fixing structure 330, so that the fixing bracket 100 and the second fixing structure 330 are firmly connected. Then, the second limiting structure 900 is rotated toward the side closer to the target part 201 to switch to the second locking state, thereby ensuring that the mounting bracket 700 is locked in the chassis 300.
[0054] The aforementioned fixed bracket 100 provides support for the target part 201 on both the upper and lower sides along the second direction Z through the support part 30, and locks the fixed bracket 100 to the chassis 300 through the first connector 500, thereby fixing the fixed bracket 100 and the target part 201 relative to the chassis 300 along the third direction Y. This allows the impact force on the target part 201 to be transmitted to the chassis 300, and avoids damage caused by displacement of the target part 201. Therefore, it provides protection for the target part 201 and the slot structure 400, and the structure is reliable and stable.
[0055] Figure 11 This is a partial structural schematic diagram of the electronic device 1000A provided in another embodiment of this application; Figure 12 for Figure 11 A perspective view of the fixing bracket 100A in the illustrated embodiment.
[0056] See Figure 11 and Figure 12 The electronic device 1000A in Embodiment 2 is largely the same as the electronic device 1000 in Embodiment 1, except that it has multiple support parts 30, which further improves the structural strength of the fixing bracket 100A and more effectively holds the target component 201 (see Figure 2 The impact is transmitted and dispersed in the first fixed structure 320 to further reduce the risk of damage caused by the impact.
[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 12 As shown, multiple support portions 30 are evenly spaced along the second direction Z, so that the target part 201 (see Figure 3 The impact force received is transmitted and distributed more evenly to different positions of the first fixed structure 320 through multiple support parts 30.
[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 12 As shown, the connecting part 10 is provided with a hollowed-out groove 10a to reduce the weight of the fixed bracket 100.
[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figure 12As shown, there are three support parts 30, namely the first support part 31, the second support part 32, and the third support part 33. The first support part 31 and the second support part 32 are located on opposite sides of the connecting part 10 along the second direction Z, and the third support part 33 is located between the first support part 31 and the second support part 32 along the second direction Z. In this way, the fixed bracket 100 has a compact structure and occupies little space.
[0060] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application and are not intended to limit it. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions to the technical solutions of this application should not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this application.
