[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer heat dissipation accessories technology, and in particular to a heat sink fan with a sliding groove and buckle fixing method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, air-cooled radiators are commonly secured in computer cases using screw fastening, where multiple screws are used to fasten the radiator to the pre-set mounting position on the case. While this method provides a secure and reliable connection, disassembly and reinstallation require tools such as screwdrivers for dust cleaning or routine maintenance, making the process cumbersome and time-consuming. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a radiator fan with a sliding groove buckle fixing method to solve the problem that in the prior art, air-cooled radiators need to be locked to the chassis with screws, which is cumbersome and inconvenient to disassemble and clean.

[0004] This utility model discloses a radiator fan with a sliding groove and snap-fit ​​fixing method, including:

[0005] The outer casing contains a cooling fan and heat dissipation components.

[0006] A sliding insert is disposed on one side of the outer casing. The sliding insert is used to slide into a groove in the computer case. The sliding insert includes two oppositely disposed end walls. Each of the two end walls is provided with a limiting protrusion. The limiting protrusion is used to engage with a limiting groove in the groove so that the sliding insert is locked in the groove.

[0007] In one embodiment, each of the two end walls is provided with a connecting arm, and the connecting arm is wrapped with an elastic rubber component to form the limiting protrusion.

[0008] In one embodiment, the limiting protrusion has an arc-shaped surface on the side facing away from the end wall.

[0009] In one embodiment, the connecting arm has a through hole, the elastic rubber-coated part has a receiving groove, the groove wall of the receiving groove has a connecting post, the connecting arm is received in the receiving groove, and the connecting post passes through the through hole.

[0010] In one embodiment, the outer casing has two buckles on one side, which are arranged opposite to each other. The sliding insert has two holes, and the two buckles are detachably connected to the two holes respectively.

[0011] In one embodiment, a plurality of limiting protrusions are provided, and the plurality of limiting protrusions are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the end wall.

[0012] In one embodiment, the sliding insert is further provided with anti-slip texture on the side facing away from the housing.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the sliding groove buckle fixing method for the radiator fan provided in this embodiment of the utility model are as follows: the air-cooled radiator has a sliding insert on the outer shell, and a limiting protrusion on the sliding insert. The limiting protrusion can cooperate with the structure of the chassis to realize quick-release connection of the sliding insert, making disassembly and cleaning more convenient and efficient.

[0014] Specifically, the sliding insert is slidably inserted into the slide groove of the chassis, and the limiting protrusion moves into the limiting slot in the slide groove. The limiting protrusion and the limiting slot cooperate to limit the sliding insert, so that the sliding insert cannot be dislodged from the slide groove, thus enabling the air cooler to be installed on the chassis. When disassembly is required, simply slide the sliding insert in the opposite direction to dislodge the limiting protrusion from the limiting slot, and the sliding insert slides out of the slide groove, allowing the air cooler to be removed from the chassis. Disassembly is more convenient and it is easier to clean the air cooler. Attached Figure Description

[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] This utility model embodiment provides a radiator fan 1000 with a sliding groove and snap-fit ​​fixing method, such as... Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, the radiator fan 1000 with sliding groove buckle fixing method includes a housing 10 and a sliding insert 20. The housing 10 houses a radiator fan 11 and a heat dissipation assembly. The sliding insert 20 is disposed on one side of the housing 10 and is used to slide into the sliding groove 210 of the computer case 2000. The sliding insert 20 includes two oppositely arranged end walls 21, each with a limiting protrusion 211. The limiting protrusion 211 is used to engage with the limiting groove in the sliding groove 210, so that the sliding insert 20 is locked in the sliding groove 210. This application can solve the problem that in the prior art, air-cooled radiators need to be locked to the case 2000 with screws, which is cumbersome and inconvenient to disassemble and clean. The air-cooled heat sink 1000 has a sliding insert 20 on the outside of the outer casing 10. The sliding insert 20 has a limiting protrusion 211. The limiting protrusion 211 can cooperate with the structure of the chassis 2000 to realize quick-release connection of the sliding insert 20, making disassembly and cleaning more convenient and efficient.

[0027] Specifically, the sliding insert 20 is slidably inserted into the slide groove 210 of the chassis 2000, and the limiting protrusion 211 is moved into the limiting groove in the slide groove 210. The limiting protrusion 211 cooperates with the limiting groove to limit the sliding insert 20, so that the sliding insert 20 cannot be dislodged from the slide groove 210, thus enabling the air cooler 1000 to be installed on the chassis 2000. When disassembly is required, the sliding insert 20 only needs to be slid in the opposite direction to make the limiting protrusion 211 dislodged from the limiting groove, and the sliding insert 20 slides out of the slide groove 210, so that the air cooler 1000 can be removed from the chassis 2000. Disassembly is more convenient and it is easier to clean the air cooler 1000.

[0028] In one embodiment, each of the two end walls 21 is provided with a connecting arm 212, and the connecting arm 212 is wrapped with an elastic rubber-coated part 213 to form a limiting protrusion 211. With this configuration, the elastic rubber-coated part 213 has elastic properties. When the sliding insert 20 is slidably inserted into the slide groove 210 of the housing 2000, the elastic rubber-coated part 213 can, on the one hand, abut against the groove wall of the slide groove 210 and be compressed to deform, thereby facilitating the insertion of the sliding insert 20 into the slide groove 210. On the other hand, it can return to its original shape when it moves to be aligned with the limiting groove, so that the limiting protrusion 211 is accommodated in the limiting groove, thereby realizing the installation of the sliding insert 20 into the slide groove 210.

[0029] In one embodiment, the limiting protrusion 211 has an arc-shaped surface 2111 on the side facing away from the end wall 21. With this configuration, the arc-shaped surface 2111 can reduce the contact area with the groove wall of the slide groove 210, thereby reducing the frictional force generated between the limiting protrusion 211 and the slide groove 210, and making it easier for the sliding insert 20 to be inserted into or removed from the slide groove 210.

[0030] In one embodiment, a through hole 2121 is provided on the connecting arm 212, and a receiving groove 2131 is provided on the elastic coated part 2131. A connecting post 2132 is provided on the wall of the receiving groove 2131. The connecting arm 212 is accommodated in the receiving groove 2131, and the connecting post 2132 passes through the through hole 2121. With this arrangement, the connecting post 2132 cooperates with the through hole to limit the elastic coated part 213, significantly enhancing the connection strength and reliability between it and the connecting arm 212, and preventing the elastic coated part 213 from loosening from the connecting arm 212.

[0031] It should be noted that the elastic coated component 213 is prepared by an overmolding process: liquid material is poured into the connecting arm 212 and cured. During the overmolding process, the liquid material flows into the through hole 2121 of the connecting arm 212, and after curing, it forms a connecting post 2132 that protrudes through the through hole 2121, thereby achieving a firm bond between the elastic coated component 213 and the connecting arm 212.

[0032] In one embodiment, two snap fasteners 12 are provided on one side of the housing 10, and the two snap fasteners 12 are arranged opposite to each other. The sliding insert 20 is provided with two insertion holes 22, and the two snap fasteners 12 are detachably connected to the two insertion holes 22 respectively. This arrangement allows the sliding insert 20 to be easily separated from the housing 10 through the mating structure of the snap fasteners 12 and the insertion holes 22. When the sliding insert 20 is damaged, it can be removed from the housing 10 and replaced with a new sliding insert 20, thereby significantly improving the maintainability and replacement efficiency of the component.

[0033] In one embodiment, multiple limiting protrusions 211 are provided, and the multiple limiting protrusions 211 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the end wall 21. This arrangement allows the multiple limiting protrusions 211 to respectively cooperate with multiple limiting grooves, effectively preventing the sliding insert 20 from shifting relative to the sliding groove 210, further improving the connection stability of the sliding insert 20 in the sliding groove 210.

[0034] In one embodiment, the sliding insert 20 is further provided with anti-slip texture on the side facing away from the housing 10. This design increases the friction between the sliding insert 20 and the groove 210, thereby further reducing the possibility of the sliding insert 20 accidentally sliding relative to the groove 210.

[0035] It should be understood that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Those skilled in the art can modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features; and all such modifications and substitutions should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of this utility model.
