Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model provides a shockproof and buffering fixing structure for computer power supplies, belonging to the field of computer hardware fixing and protection technology. Background Technology

[0002] As an indispensable electronic device in modern society, computers integrate a variety of sophisticated electronic components. Among them, the power supply unit (PSU) is the heart of the entire computer system, responsible for converting alternating current (AC) into stable direct current (DC) to power all components such as the central processing unit (CPU), motherboard, hard drive, and graphics card. The stable operation of the computer power supply directly affects the performance and lifespan of the entire computer system.

[0003] During the production, transportation, installation, and daily use of computers, various forms of mechanical vibration and impact are inevitable. These include bumps during logistics transportation, collisions during equipment movement, and continuous vibrations inherent in the equipment's working environment (such as factories or vehicle environments). Existing computer power supply fixing methods are typically simple, often using screws to rigidly fix the power supply casing to a pre-drilled location on the chassis. While this rigid connection method is simple and inexpensive, its buffering performance is often relatively poor, failing to effectively absorb and dissipate externally transmitted shock and vibration energy. Therefore, this invention provides a shock-absorbing and buffering fixing structure for computer power supplies. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is that computer power supplies that are directly fixed to the chassis with screws have relatively poor buffering performance and cannot effectively absorb and dissipate the impact and vibration energy transmitted from the outside.

[0005] To solve the technical problem, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a shockproof and buffering fixing structure for a computer power supply, comprising:

[0006] The base is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the computer case;

[0007] The support assembly includes a bracket located above the base and a pressure plate located above the bracket. Both the inner side wall of the bracket and the bottom wall of the pressure plate are provided with buffer blocks that are in close contact with the outer wall of the computer power supply.

[0008] A buffer component, used to absorb and buffer vibrations and impacts from the outside, includes a corrugated cylinder and a damping spring placed inside the corrugated cylinder. The corrugated cylinder and the damping spring are fixedly installed between the four corners of the bottom of the bracket and the four corners of the top of the base.

[0009] Furthermore, the base has several mounting holes on both sides of its bottom, which are used to fix the base to the reserved mounting holes on the bottom wall or inner side wall of the computer case using high-strength bolts.

[0010] Furthermore, the center of the base and the center of the bottom of the bracket are provided with openings inside the buffer to facilitate heat dissipation of the computer power supply without affecting it.

[0011] Furthermore, both the buffer block and the corrugated cylinder are made of rubber.

[0012] Furthermore, the support assembly also includes screws fixedly disposed on both sides of the top of the bracket and passing through the pressure plates, and the screws are threaded with locking nuts placed on the top of the pressure plates.

[0013] Furthermore, the height of the bracket is lower than the height of the computer power supply, and a washer passing through the screw is provided between the locking nut and the pressure plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the base, bracket, and pressure plate are all made of stainless steel or high-strength aluminum alloy.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] By using a support component to support and hold the computer power supply, combined with a buffer for vertical buffering and a buffer block for horizontal buffering, this invention constructs a three-dimensional buffer protection that can effectively absorb and attenuate impacts and vibrations from both vertical and horizontal directions. The protection of the computer power supply is more comprehensive and reliable than traditional rigid fixing methods. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, front, back, top, and bottom mentioned or possibly mentioned in this specification are defined relative to their structure and are relative concepts. Therefore, they may vary depending on their location and usage; thus, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.

[0025] The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in this specification are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used herein refers to and includes one or more of the associated listed items, any or all possible combinations thereof.

[0026] To make the technical problems to be solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0027] According to the appendix Figure 1 , 3As shown in Figure 4: This utility model provides a shockproof and buffering fixing structure for a computer power supply, including: a base 1, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the computer case; a support component 2, which is used to support and clamp the computer power supply, including a bracket 3 located above the base 1 and a pressure plate 4 located above the bracket 3. The inner side wall of the bracket 3 and the bottom wall of the pressure plate 4 are provided with buffer blocks 5 that are in close contact with the outer wall of the computer power supply. The support component 2 also includes screws 11 fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the bracket 3 and passing through the pressure plate 4. A locking nut 12 is threadedly connected to the screw 11 and placed on the top of the pressure plate 4. The height of the bracket 3 is lower than the height of the computer power supply. A washer passing through the screw 11 is provided between the locking nut 12 and the pressure plate 4. The washer is not shown in the figure. Specifically, the washer increases the contact area between the locking nut 12 and the pressure plate 4, disperses the locking force, prevents damage to the surface of the pressure plate 4 when tightening the nut, and makes the pressure distribution more uniform. By rotating the locking nut 12, the vertical position of the pressure plate 4 can be adjusted, thereby applying downward pressure to firmly clamp the computer power supply between the bracket 3 and the pressure plate 4. The buffer block 5 is used to absorb and buffer impacts and vibrations from the side. When the computer is subjected to impacts or vibrations from the side, the computer power supply fixed on the bracket 3 will tend to shift horizontally. At this time, the buffer block 5 set on the inner wall of the bracket 3 and the bottom wall of the pressure plate 4 will make squeezing contact with the outer wall of the power supply, using its elastic deformation to absorb and buffer the impact energy.

[0028] As per the instruction manual Figure 2 , 5 As shown in Figure 6: Buffer 6, used to absorb and buffer vibrations and impacts from the outside, includes a bellows 7 and a damping spring 8 placed inside the bellows 7. Both the bellows 7 and the damping spring 8 are fixedly installed between the four bottom corners of the bracket 3 and the four top corners of the base 1. Specifically, when the computer is subjected to vertical impact or vibration, the energy is first transferred to the base 1 and then absorbed by the buffer 6 at the four corners. The damping spring 8 provides the main elastic support and restoring force, while the bellows 7, utilizing its own material properties and structural form, plays a role in damping and auxiliary support for the spring's vibration. The two work together to effectively isolate and attenuate the vertical vibration energy transmitted to the bracket 3 and the computer power supply body.

[0029] As per the instruction manual Figure 3 , 5As shown: The base 1 has several mounting holes 9 on both sides of its bottom, which are used to fix the base 1 to the reserved mounting holes on the bottom wall or inner side wall of the computer case with high-strength bolts, ensuring the stability of the entire shockproof structure. The center of the base 1 and the center of the bottom of the bracket 3 are provided with openings 10 placed inside the buffer 6. The bracket 3 is a U-shaped structural component, which helps to form an air circulation channel, so as not to affect the heat dissipation efficiency of the computer power supply itself and ensure its operation at a stable working temperature. The buffer block 5 and the corrugated cylinder 7 are made of rubber material, which has excellent energy absorption characteristics and fatigue resistance, can effectively buffer impact and dampen vibration, and is moderately priced. The base 1, bracket 3 and pressure plate 4 are all made of stainless steel or high-strength aluminum alloy material to ensure structural strength and corrosion resistance.

[0030] The principle of this utility model

[0031] When the computer is subjected to a vertical impact from below or above, the impact force is transmitted to the base 1 through the computer case. The compression and rebound of the damping spring 8 will absorb most of the impact energy, while the damping characteristics of the bellows 7 will further dissipate the vibration energy, thus greatly reducing the impact force transmitted to the power supply body.

[0032] When a computer is subjected to a lateral impact from the front, back, left, or right, the computer power supply body will tend to move horizontally due to inertia. At this time, the outer wall of the computer power supply will squeeze the buffer block 5 on the inner side of the bracket 3. These buffer blocks 5 undergo elastic deformation, thereby absorbing and buffering the lateral impact energy, preventing the computer power supply casing from directly colliding with the hard bracket 3, and thus protecting the computer power supply from lateral impact damage.

[0033] In summary, by using the support component 2 to support and hold the computer power supply, combined with the buffer component 6 for vertical buffering and the buffer block 5 for horizontal buffering, this invention constructs a three-dimensional buffer protection that can effectively absorb and attenuate impacts and vibrations from both vertical and horizontal directions. The protection of the computer power supply is more reliable than traditional rigid fixing methods.

[0034] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
