Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of computer technology, specifically to an adjustable graphics card backplate. Background Technology

[0002] The graphics card is the core graphics processing hardware of a computer. It is used to convert the digital signals transmitted by the CPU into image signals that the monitor can recognize. It also undertakes tasks such as 3D rendering, video decoding, encoding, and graphics calculation. It is essential for ensuring image output, game operation, and professional design. The graphics card backplate is an auxiliary accessory installed on the back of the graphics card PCB (printed circuit board). It is mostly made of metal (aluminum alloy, stainless steel, etc.) or composite materials. Its main functions are structural reinforcement, protection, and auxiliary heat dissipation. Some have adjustable designs to adapt to different graphics card specifications.

[0003] An existing patent (publication number: CN222545673U) discloses an adjustable graphics card backplate, belonging to the field of backplate technology. An adjustable graphics card backplate includes a backplate body. Two sliding grooves are formed on the surface of the backplate body. Guide rods are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two sliding grooves. Guide blocks are slidably connected to the surfaces of the guide rods. A mounting groove is formed on the surface of the guide block. An elastic element is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove. A moving block is fixedly connected to the end of the elastic element. A screw is fixedly connected to the surface of the moving block. This invention, by setting guide rods, allows the guide blocks to move upwards or downwards easily, facilitating quick installation of graphics card mounting holes at different positions. This avoids the problem of slightly misaligned graphics card mounting holes preventing installation of the backplate, thus reducing its installation rate. Through the cooperation of these components, the utilization rate of the graphics card backplate can be effectively improved.

[0004] Traditional graphics card backplates have fixed panel spacing, which cannot accommodate the aforementioned differences. This can easily lead to problems such as the panel obstructing graphics card components and misaligned support positions. Backplates are mostly fixed structures, which cannot be adjusted according to the size and interface layout of different graphics cards, resulting in installation difficulties or insufficient compatibility. Furthermore, it is difficult to disassemble the graphics card after installation, making it difficult to individually disassemble and replace internal components and heatsinks, which makes the repair process cumbersome and makes subsequent cleaning of heatsinks troublesome. Therefore, it is necessary to design an adjustable and easily removable graphics card backplate. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this application provides an adjustable graphics card backplate, which has the advantages of being flexible and easy to disassemble, thus solving the problems of difficulty in adjusting the installation position according to components and inconvenience in disassembly and maintenance.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: an adjustable graphics card backplate, comprising a frame, the frame including a bottom frame, a hinge, and a cover plate, a backplate assembly being snapped onto the bottom of the frame, a torsion bolt being threaded onto the top of the frame, a protective frame being fixedly connected to the inner side of the frame, a disassembly panel being snapped onto the inner wall of the frame, threaded grooves being provided on both sides of the disassembly panel, an adjusting screw being installed through the threaded grooves, disassembly components being provided at both ends of the disassembly panel, and a heat dissipation fin assembly being installed inside the protective frame.

[0007] The above solution forms a three-dimensional protective structure with a bottom frame, hinge, and cover plate to protect the graphics card structure. The backplate assembly is connected by snap-fit ​​to enable quick disassembly and replacement, improving adaptability and flexibility. The cover plate is locked by a twist bolt, and the adjustment screw is an adjustable structure that drives the disassembly panel to move through the threaded engagement. The disassembly assembly enables quick disassembly and assembly of the panel, facilitating subsequent maintenance. The heat dissipation fins are integrated inside the protective frame, combining structure and heat dissipation for better overall adaptability, protection, and heat dissipation.

[0008] Furthermore, the bottom frame is wrapped around the outside of the graphics card, and a cover plate is installed on the inner side of the bottom frame via a hinge, with limit holes formed on the inner wall of the cover plate.

[0009] With the above solution, the cover plate can be opened along the pivot, and bolts can be used to fix and limit the cover plate, which facilitates subsequent disassembly and installation.

[0010] Furthermore, the back panel assembly includes an insert plate fixed to the outer wall of the frame, and a perforated mounting plate is bolted to the bottom of the frame, with a perforation shielding plate covering the bottom of the perforated mounting plate.

[0011] With the above solution, the multi-hole mounting plate is bolted to the bottom of the frame. It has multiple sets of elongated holes for the bolts to pass through and fix the graphics card cooling fan. The hole-covering plate covers the bottom of the multi-hole mounting plate and can cover or expose part of the elongated holes as needed.

[0012] Furthermore, the multi-hole mounting plate is provided with multiple sets of openings, and the hole shape is oblong, with bolts passing through the oblong holes to fix the graphics card cooling fan.

[0013] With the above solution, the elongated holes are symmetrically distributed in two rows along the length of the multi-hole mounting plate. When the bolt passes through the elongated holes, the installation position can be freely adjusted within the length of the elongated holes, thus solving the problem of misalignment of the mounting holes for heatsink fans of different brands of graphics cards.

[0014] Furthermore, the head of the rotating bolt is a non-slip knob structure, and the screw end of the rotating bolt passes through the frame and is threadedly connected to the limiting hole of the cover plate.

[0015] With the above solution, a rubber gasket is provided at the part where the torsion bolt passes through the frame, which not only enhances the sealing performance but also avoids paint damage caused by metal friction between the bolt and the frame. After the cover plate is flipped to the target angle, tightening the torsion bolt can fix the cover plate to the frame.

[0016] Furthermore, one end of the adjusting screw is provided with an adjusting block, and the rod body of the adjusting screw is adapted to the internal thread of the threaded groove. The disassembly panel is connected to another disassembly panel through the adjusting screw.

[0017] With the above solution, the adjusting block of the adjusting screw has a prism structure, which can be turned by hand or with a wrench, making it highly convenient to adjust. The distance between the two disassembled panels can be changed by rotating the adjusting screw.

[0018] Furthermore, the disassembly assembly includes sliders that slide and fit on both sides of the disassembly panel. A limit block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider, and a spring is fixedly connected to one end of the limit block.

[0019] The above solution allows the spring-loaded structure to provide sufficient spring force for the limiting block to embed into the limiting groove, while simultaneously connecting the two ends of the detachable panel to the frame.

[0020] Furthermore, the limiting block is connected to the grooves on both sides of the disassembly panel via a spring, and the limiting block and the limiting device are interlocked.

[0021] With the above solution, the depth and width of the limiting groove are slightly larger than the end size of the limiting block, so that they can fit together. When the panel needs to be removed, the slider is pushed inward to drive the limiting block to compress the spring and disengage from the limiting groove, so that the panel can be pulled out along the slide of the protective frame.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] This adjustable graphics card backplate allows for adjustment of the distance between the disassembly panels via a screw, facilitating compatibility with different graphics card sizes. It can be fine-tuned according to the graphics card size, reducing the pressure of the frame on the internal structure and resulting in a more secure installation. The elastic snap-fit ​​structure of the disassembly components allows for quick disassembly and assembly of the disassembly panels, facilitating graphics card maintenance and backplate cleaning. Simply removing the disassembly panels allows for observation of the internal condition, saving disassembly time and simplifying the disassembly process. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 An adjustable graphics card backplate in this embodiment includes a frame 1. The interior of the frame 1 includes a bottom frame 101, a pivot 102, and a cover plate 103. The bottom of the frame 1 is engaged with a backplate assembly 2. The top of the frame 1 is threaded with a torsion bolt 3. The inner side of the frame 1 is fixedly connected with a protective frame 4. The inner wall of the frame 1 is engaged with a disassembly panel 5. Threaded grooves 6 are provided on both sides of the disassembly panel 5. An adjusting screw 7 is installed through the threaded grooves 6. Disassembly components 8 are provided at both ends of the disassembly panel 5. A heat sink fin assembly 9 is installed inside the protective frame 4.

[0033] In this embodiment, an adjustable graphics card backplate forms a three-dimensional protective structure through a bottom frame 101, a hinge 102, and a cover plate 103, which wraps and protects the graphics card structure. The backplate assembly 2 is connected by a snap-fit ​​mechanism to enable quick disassembly and replacement, improving adaptability. The twist bolt 3 locks the cover plate 103. The adjustment screw 7 is an adjustable structure that drives the disassembly panel 5 to move through thread engagement. The disassembly assembly 8 enables quick disassembly and assembly of the disassembly panel 5, facilitating subsequent maintenance. The heat dissipation fin group 9 is integrated inside the protective frame 4, combining the structure and heat dissipation for better overall adaptability, protection, and heat dissipation.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The bottom frame 101 surrounds the graphics card, and a cover plate 103 is mounted on the inner side of the bottom frame 101 via a hinge 102. The inner wall of the cover plate 103 has limiting holes, allowing it to be opened along the hinge 102. Bolts can be used to fix and limit the cover plate 103, facilitating subsequent disassembly and installation. The backplate assembly 2 includes a socket plate 201 fixed to the outer wall of the frame 1. A multi-hole mounting plate 202 is bolted to the bottom of the frame 1. A perforated plate 203 is provided at the bottom, and a multi-hole mounting plate 202 is bolted to the bottom of the frame 1. The plate has multiple sets of elongated holes for the bolts to pass through and secure the graphics card cooling fan. The perforated plate 203 covers the bottom of the multi-hole mounting plate 202 and can partially cover or expose the elongated holes as needed. The multi-hole mounting plate 202 has multiple sets of openings, all of which are elongated, and bolts pass through these holes to secure the graphics card cooling fan. The elongated holes are arranged in two rows along the length of the multi-hole mounting plate 202. The bolts are symmetrically distributed, allowing for free adjustment of the installation position within the length of the elongated holes, thus solving the problem of misalignment in the mounting holes of different brands of graphics card cooling fans. The head of the rotating bolt 3 is a non-slip knob structure, and the screw end of the rotating bolt 3 passes through the frame 1 and is threadedly connected to the limiting hole of the cover plate 103. A rubber washer is provided at the part of the rotating bolt 3 that passes through the frame 1, which not only enhances the sealing performance but also avoids paint damage caused by metal friction between the bolt and the frame 1. When the cover plate 103 is flipped to the target angle, tightening the rotating bolt 3 can fix the cover plate 103 to the frame 1. One end of the adjusting screw 7 is provided with an adjusting block, and the rod of the adjusting screw 7 is adapted to the internal thread of the threaded groove 6. The disassembly panel 5 is connected to another disassembly panel 5 through the adjusting screw 7. The adjusting block of the adjusting screw 7 is a prism structure, which can be turned by hand or with a wrench, making adjustment highly convenient. The distance between the two disassembly panels 5 can be changed by rotating the adjusting screw 7.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 5 The disassembly assembly 8 includes sliders 801 that slide and fit into both sides of the disassembly panel 5. A limiting block 802 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 801. A spring 803 is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting block 802. The elastic structure of the spring 803 allows the limiting block 802 to have sufficient elastic force to embed into the limiting groove. At the same time, both ends of the disassembly panel 5 are connected to the frame 1. The limiting block 802 is connected to the grooves on both sides of the disassembly panel 5 through the spring 803, and the limiting block 802 and the limiting block fit into each other. The depth and width of the limiting groove are slightly larger than the end size of the limiting block 802 to achieve mutual fitting. When it is necessary to disassemble the panel 5, the slider 801 is pushed inward to drive the limiting block 802 to compress the spring 803 and disengage from the limiting groove, so that the disassembly panel 5 can be pulled out along the slide groove of the protective frame 4.

[0036] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows: First, the bottom frame 101 is placed on the outside of the graphics card. The flip angle of the cover plate 103 is adjusted according to the position of the graphics card interface. The cover plate 103 is locked by passing through the frame 1 with the twist bolt 3 and screwing it into the limiting hole of the cover plate 103.

[0037] Next, the multi-hole mounting plate 202 is fixed to the bottom of the frame 1 with bolts. The blocking range of the hole-covering plate 203 is adjusted according to the installation position of the heat sink, exposing the corresponding elongated hole. The bolts are then passed through the elongated hole and the graphics card heat sink is fixed.

[0038] Finally, insert the disassembly panel 5 into the groove of the protective frame 4, push the slider 801 to compress the spring 803 with the limit block 802, and after the disassembly panel 5 slides to the edge of the cooling fan, release the slider 801. Under the elastic force of the spring 803, the limit block 802 is embedded into the limit groove of the protective frame 4, thus completing the fixation of the disassembly panel 5. If it is necessary to adjust the horizontal position of the disassembly panel 5, rotate the adjusting block of the adjusting screw 7 to push the disassembly panel 5 to move in the groove through the thread transmission.
