Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the technical field of electronic device structure, specifically a vibration-proof hard drive bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, vibration-resistant hard drive brackets are mainly used in multi-drive NAS and industrial control equipment.

[0003] In multi-drive configuration environments, resonance can easily occur, affecting hard drive performance and potentially causing data loss. Some anti-vibration hard drive brackets may affect hard drive heat dissipation, blocking the front air vents of the chassis, leading to poor heat dissipation, increased temperature, and thus affecting hard drive performance and lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model mainly provides a shockproof hard drive bracket to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

It is composed of the metal frame, the high-elasticity silicone, and the hard drive mounting compartment. The metal frame is the outermost layer of the vibration-damping hard drive bracket, the high-elasticity silicone is the bottom inner layer, and the hard drive mounting compartment is on top of it. The first springs are provided on both sides of the hard drive mounting compartment.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Utilizing a layered shock absorption structure design, it adopts a three-layer structure of "metal frame + elastic buffer layer + hard drive mounting compartment": the outer metal frame provides rigid support, the middle elastic buffer layer uses a combination of "spring + high-elasticity silicone", the spring is responsible for filtering low-frequency vibrations, the silicone absorbs high-frequency impacts, and the inner mounting compartment conforms to the shape of the hard drive to prevent the hard drive from shaking in the bracket, thereby increasing the stability of the hard drive and reducing vibration under different environmental conditions; The design incorporates multiple cutouts to prevent obstructing the air intake of the chassis, which could hinder heat dissipation, increase temperature, and negatively impact hard drive performance and lifespan.

[0015] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more comprehensive description of the utility model will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which show several embodiments of the utility model. However, the utility model can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the text. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the utility model more thorough and comprehensive.

[0016] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1-5As shown, this embodiment proposes a vibration-damping hard drive bracket, which mainly consists of a metal frame 1, high-elasticity silicone 2, and a hard drive mounting compartment 3 to form an overall protective structure. The metal frame 1 is located on the outermost side of the bracket, serving as the main support and physical protection; its inner bottom is covered with a layer of high-elasticity silicone 2, which can effectively absorb and buffer vibrations and impacts from the outside; the hard drive mounting compartment 3 is located on top of the silicone layer and is used to directly support and fix the hard drive. First springs 5 ​​are symmetrically installed on both sides of the hard drive mounting compartment 3 to further enhance the system's shock absorption capability.

[0017] For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 2 As shown, the metal frame 1 has a first spring groove 11 symmetrically opened along its longitudinal center line inside, which is used to accurately install and position the first spring 5. At the same time, the bottom surface of the metal frame 1 adopts a hollow design, which is aligned with the air inlet of the chassis to form a direct heat dissipation channel. This not only reduces the weight of the overall structure, but also facilitates airflow and improves heat dissipation efficiency.

[0018] For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 5 As shown, the high-elasticity silicone layer 2 has evenly arranged ventilation holes 21 in the middle. The ventilation holes 21 help air circulation and prevent heat accumulation. The high-elasticity silicone layer 2 is firmly connected to the bottom metal frame 1 by screws, which ensures the stability and integrity of the structure.

[0019] For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 4 As shown, four first positioning blocks 31 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the hard disk mounting compartment 3 along its center line. The first positioning blocks 31 are in contact with the outer side of the first spring 5, and together they restrict the displacement of the hard disk mounting compartment 3 caused by external or internal factors, ensuring that it can only be moderately buffered in a predetermined direction when subjected to vibration, without excessive offset or shaking.

[0020] For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 4 As shown, a heat sink 4 is installed at the rear of the hard drive mounting bay 3, and the heat sink 4 has heat dissipation holes, which form convection with the rear fan of the chassis to accelerate the heat dissipation during hard drive operation. On the back of the heat sink 4, four second positioning blocks 41 are symmetrically distributed along the center line. The second positioning blocks 41 and the second spring 6 are in contact with each other, forming a second-stage shock absorption and positioning mechanism.

[0021] For details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 2 , 3As shown, the first spring 5 and the second spring 6 are respectively installed in the space between the metal frame 1 and the hard drive mounting compartment 3, and between the metal frame 1 and the heat sink 4. One end of the first spring 5 is embedded in the first spring groove 11, and the other end contacts the first positioning block 31 to form an elastic support. Similarly, the second spring 6 is installed in the corresponding second spring groove 12 and cooperates with the second positioning block 41. High-viscosity damping grease is applied to the surfaces of the first spring 5 and the second spring 6 and the inside of the first spring groove 11 and the second spring groove 12 to suppress the high-frequency rebound of the spring after vibration. Together, they play a role in shock absorption and stability. The entire system, through the coordinated work of the multi-level springs and positioning structure, significantly improves the shock resistance and operational stability of the hard drive.

[0022] The specific operation method of this utility model is as follows: Place the shockproof hard drive bracket on a stable table with the bottom of the metal frame 1 facing down and the opening of the hard drive bay 3 facing up. Pick up the 3.5-inch hard drive with the circuit board side facing the heatsink at the back of the hard drive bay 3. Tilt the hard drive at approximately a 30-degree angle and align the mounting holes on the side of the hard drive with the first positioning block 31 on one side of the hard drive bay 3. Gently place the hard drive downwards into the bay. During placement, you will feel the first positioning blocks 31 on both sides of the hard drive guiding it downwards. At the same time, the first springs 5 ​​on both sides of the bay will contract slightly due to compression. This is the normal shock-absorbing structure at work. When the bottom of the hard drive contacts the high-elasticity silicone pad 2, lay the hard drive flat to make it completely horizontal. Then, use even force to push the hard drive smoothly towards the heatsink 4 until you feel significant resistance. This indicates that the screw holes on the side of the hard drive are completely aligned with the fixing points below the first positioning block 31. Use the matching screws to securely lock the left and right sides of the hard drive to the hard drive bay 3 through the mounting holes near the first positioning block 31.

[0023] The present invention has been described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvement made by adopting the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention to other occasions without modification, shall be within the protection scope of the present invention.
