Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of memory module socket technology, specifically a memory module socket for preventing memory modules from becoming loose. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of computer hardware, memory modules are critical storage components, and their stable connection is essential for the normal operation of a computer system. The memory module socket is a vital component used to connect the memory modules to the motherboard, and its design directly affects the connection stability and lifespan of the memory modules.

[0003] Currently, there are various memory module sockets on the market designed to prevent memory modules from becoming loose. For example, one such socket, disclosed in publication number CN214706299U, includes a casing, a first slot, a second slot, a first insert, a square groove, a partition, and a second insert. The first and second slots are located on the upper left and right sides of the casing, surrounded by square grooves. A partition connects the two slots, and a fixing plate with a torsion spring is located next to the slots. The first insert is located on the lower side of the casing, and the fixing plate has grooves and hinges. Second inserts are located on both sides of the first insert. While this technical solution achieves a certain degree of protection against memory module loosening, it still has significant shortcomings in practical applications.

[0004] Specifically, the aforementioned existing technology mainly relies on a combination of a fixing plate and a torsion spring to position the memory module. This positioning method focuses on fixing the memory module vertically and is not suitable for accurately positioning the inserted memory module from the side. In actual use, the memory module is prone to lateral movement after insertion. Lateral movement not only causes repeated mechanical stress on the memory module and the socket, which can easily lead to damage to the internal structure of the memory module socket over time, such as loose solder joints and broken wires, thus affecting the normal function of the memory module socket; but also disrupts the stable electrical connection between the memory module and the socket, leading to data transmission errors, system instability, and other problems, seriously affecting the overall performance and stability of the computer. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a memory module socket that prevents memory modules from becoming loose, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a memory module socket for preventing memory modules from becoming loose, comprising a socket body for inserting memory modules, wherein both sides of the top of the socket body are equipped with snap-fit ​​fixing components for positioning and fixing the memory modules, the snap-fit ​​fixing components comprising a snap frame fixedly connected to the top of the socket body, a top positioning component for positioning the top of the memory module is installed on the top of the side of the snap frame, and side positioning components for positioning the sides of the memory module are installed on both sides of the snap frame.

[0007] Optionally, the top positioning component includes a mounting base fixedly connected to the card frame, a positioning spring fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base, and a positioning block for positioning the top of the memory module fixedly connected to the side of the positioning spring.

[0008] Optionally, two symmetrically arranged limiting slide rods are fixedly connected to the side of the positioning block, and a limiting slide sleeve that is slidably connected to the limiting slide rod is installed on the mounting base at the position corresponding to the limiting slide rod.

[0009] Optionally, the side positioning component includes a second mounting base fixedly connected to the side of the card frame, and the side of the second mounting base is adjustablely provided with a positioning clamp for side positioning of the memory module.

[0010] Optionally, the side of the positioning clamp is fixedly connected with symmetrically arranged limiting telescopic rods, and the other end of the limiting telescopic rods is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base.

[0011] Optionally, the second mounting base further includes a threaded seat fixedly connected to the second mounting base, the threaded seat having a positioning bolt threadedly connected to it, and the end of the positioning bolt being rotatably connected to the side of the positioning clamping plate via a bearing.

[0012] Optionally, the top of the side of the positioning block is arc-shaped, and the top of the positioning clamp is provided with an arc-shaped surface.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. The present invention provides a memory module socket for preventing memory modules from becoming loose. By combining a top positioning component with a side positioning component, it achieves multi-directional precise positioning, restricts the movement of the memory module in all directions, and effectively avoids its lateral shaking. This not only reduces the risk of damage to the internal structure of the memory module socket and protects the memory module from physical damage, but also extends the service life of the hardware, saves maintenance and replacement costs, and ensures accurate and efficient data transmission, thereby improving the stability of the computer system.

[0014] 2. In this utility model, snap-fit ​​fixing components are provided on both sides of the top of the socket body. These components include a top positioning component and a side positioning component. During the memory module insertion process, when the memory module is inserted into the socket body, it compresses the arc-shaped surface of the positioning block, causing the positioning block to contract and compress the positioning spring. After the top of the memory module moves past the positioning block, the positioning spring, under its elastic force, causes the positioning block to lock onto the top of the memory module, thus achieving positioning of the top of the memory module. Simultaneously, by rotating the positioning bolt, the thread of the threaded seat moves the positioning clamp closer to the memory module, positioning and clamping it from the side. This multi-directional positioning method combining top and side positioning can restrict the movement of the memory module in all directions, effectively preventing lateral wobbling after the memory module is inserted, and greatly improving the stability of the memory module connection.

[0015] 3. In this utility model, lateral shaking of the memory module is effectively avoided, reducing mechanical friction and stress between the memory module and the socket caused by shaking. On the one hand, this reduces the risk of damage to the internal structure of the memory module socket, such as preventing loose solder joints and broken circuits, thus extending the service life of the memory module socket. On the other hand, it reduces physical damage to the memory module caused by shaking, protecting its normal function, reducing the probability of hardware failure, and saving users the cost of repair and hardware replacement.

[0016] 4. In this utility model, the positioning clamp in the side positioning assembly is adjustable through the cooperation of the positioning bolt and the threaded seat. Users can easily adjust the position of the positioning clamp according to memory modules of different thicknesses, achieving effective positioning of memory modules of various thicknesses and sizes. This design enhances the versatility and adaptability of the memory module socket, meeting the needs of different users and different usage scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-5 A memory module socket for preventing memory module loosening includes a socket body 1 for inserting the memory module. To achieve omnidirectional and reliable positioning and fixing of the memory module, in this embodiment: snap-fit ​​fixing components 2 are installed on both sides of the top of the socket body 1. The snap-fit ​​fixing components 2 include a snap-fit ​​frame 201 fixedly connected to the top of the socket body 1. The snap-fit ​​frame 201 provides basic frame support for the entire positioning and fixing structure, providing a solid foundation for the subsequently installed positioning components and ensuring stable positioning. A top positioning component 2011 for top positioning of the memory module is installed on the top side of the snap-fit ​​frame 201, and side positioning components 2012 for side positioning of the memory module are installed on both sides of the snap-fit ​​frame 201. The snap-fit ​​fixing components 2 constrain the memory module from above and from both sides, effectively preventing it from loosening due to vibration or external force during operation, greatly improving the stability of the memory module connection, and thus ensuring the reliability of the computer system operation.

[0021] To achieve precise positioning of the top of the memory module, in this embodiment: the top positioning component 2011 includes a mounting base 202 fixedly connected to the frame 201. A positioning spring 2021 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base 202, and a positioning block 2022 for positioning the top of the memory module is fixedly connected to the side of the positioning spring 2021. When the memory module is inserted into the socket body 1, the positioning block 2022, under the action of the positioning spring 2021, can automatically adjust its position according to the insertion action of the memory module, achieving elastic locking of the top of the memory module. This elastic positioning method can not only effectively fix the top of the memory module, but also buffer the impact force when the memory module is inserted to a certain extent, avoiding damage to the memory module or socket due to excessive force, and extending the service life of the hardware.

[0022] To ensure the stable and accurate movement of the positioning block 2022 under the action of the positioning spring 2021, in this embodiment, two symmetrically arranged limiting slide rods 203 are fixedly connected to the side of the positioning block 2022. A limiting sleeve 2031, slidably connected to the limiting slide rod 203, is installed on the mounting base 202 at a position corresponding to the limiting slide rod 203. The cooperation between the limiting slide rod 203 and the limiting sleeve 2031 acts like setting a precise "track" for the positioning block 2022, allowing it to move only in a specific direction. This effectively prevents the positioning block 2022 from shifting or wobbling during movement, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the top positioning and further improving the reliability of the memory module connection.

[0023] To achieve flexible side positioning of the memory module to accommodate different memory module sizes, in this embodiment, the side positioning component 2012 includes a mounting base 204 fixedly connected to the side of the frame 201. The mounting base 204 has an adjustable positioning clamp 2041 for side positioning of the memory module. This adjustable positioning clamp 2041 design makes the memory module socket more versatile, meeting the positioning needs of various sizes and specifications of memory modules on the market. This provides great convenience to users and reduces the inconvenience caused by incompatible memory module sizes.

[0024] To achieve precise adjustment of the positioning clamp 2041, in this embodiment, the mounting base 204 further includes a threaded seat 206 fixedly connected to it. A positioning bolt 2061 is threaded onto the threaded seat 206, and the end of the positioning bolt 2061 is rotatably connected to the side of the positioning clamp 2041 via a bearing. By rotating the positioning bolt 2061, under the action of the thread on the threaded seat 206, the positioning bolt 2061 can drive the positioning clamp 2041 to move along a specific direction, thereby achieving precise positioning and clamping of the memory module's side. This threaded adjustment method has advantages such as high adjustment accuracy and convenient operation, ensuring that the positioning clamp 2041 applies appropriate pressure to the side of the memory module, guaranteeing the positioning effect without causing excessive compression and damage to the memory module.

[0025] To ensure the stability of the positioning clamp 2041 during adjustment, in this embodiment, symmetrically arranged limiting telescopic rods 205 are fixedly connected to the side of the positioning clamp 2041, and the other end of the limiting telescopic rods 205 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base 204. The limiting telescopic rods 205 act as "stabilizing pillars" for the positioning clamp 2041, providing stable support and guidance during its movement, preventing tilting or wobbling during adjustment, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the side positioning, and further improving the overall reliability of the memory module connection.

[0026] To ensure smoother insertion of the memory module, reduce insertion resistance, and improve positioning accuracy, in this embodiment, the top of the positioning block 2022 and the top of the positioning clamp 2041 are both arc-shaped. The arc-shaped design allows for smoother contact between the memory module and the positioning block 2022 and positioning clamp 2041 during insertion, preventing jamming and improving insertion convenience.

[0027] When using: First, insert the memory module into the socket 1. During insertion, the top of the memory module presses against the curved surface of the positioning block 2022, causing it to retract along the direction of the limiting slide bar 203 and compress the positioning spring 2021. Once the top of the memory module has passed the positioning block 2022, the positioning spring 2021 quickly returns to its original shape under its elastic force, causing the positioning block 2022 to pop out and lock onto the top of the memory module, achieving initial positioning of the memory module's top. Simultaneously, by rotating the positioning bolt 2061, under the action of the threaded seat 206, the positioning bolt 2061 moves the positioning clamp 2041 closer to the memory module along the direction of the limiting telescopic rod 205, and positions and clamps the memory module from the side. This dual positioning from the top and side effectively prevents lateral wobbling after the memory module is inserted, avoiding damage to the memory module and socket caused by wobbling, and greatly increasing the stability of the memory module connection, ensuring the stable and reliable operation of the computer system.

[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
