Embodiment
Below will and describe in detail with accompanying drawing and know explaination spirit of the present invention, any those of ordinary skill in the art is understanding after preferred embodiment of the present invention, when can be by the disclosed technology of the present invention, change and modification, and do not depart from spirit of the present invention and scope.
With reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, it is the decomposition texture schematic diagram that illustrates the different angles of an embodiment of blade-type external expansion card module of the present invention.Blade-type external expansion card module comprises the shell being comprised of the first half housings 100 and the second half housings 102 and is arranged on the first half housings 100 and the second half housings 102 combine and an expansion card 110 and an adapter 112 in the accommodation space of the shell that forms forms.Expansion card 110 is elements of realizing the function of external expansion card module.Expansion card 110 has a PCI golden finger, and adapter 112 setting vertical with expansion card 110, is provided with a PCI slot 128, straight up with the PCI golden finger of pegging graft on adapter 112.In addition, adapter 112 is also provided with a connector 114, and its direction is perpendicular to the direction of PCI slot 128, and connector 114 is in order to be electrically connected expansion card 110 by adapter 112 and cabinet.The first half housings 100 have a vertically disposed base plate 116, in a side of base plate 116, are provided with perpendicular the first side wall 118, and the first side wall 118 has folded walls 104 away from base plate 116 places, and it is vertical with the first side wall 118, is parallel to base plate 116.The folding line place of folded walls 104 has multiple chutes 106.At base plate 116, away from another side edge of the first side wall 118, there is a locking wall 124, perpendicular to base plate 116, and on it, have for fixing screw hole.With the first half housings 100 similarly, the second half housings 102 have a vertically disposed top board 120, top board 120 is parallel with base plate 116.In top board 120 1 side edge, be provided with the second perpendicular sidewall 122, the second sidewalls 122 and away from top board 120 places, there is the hole corresponding with screw hole on the locking wall 124 of the first half housings 100.At top board 120, away from another side edge of the second sidewall 122, there is the L-type spacer 108 corresponding to chute 106 at the folding line place of the folded walls 104 of multiple and the first half housings 100.That is to say, the L-type spacer 108 of the second half housings 102 is corresponding one by one with the chute 106 of the first half housings 100.Rear end that it should be noted that the first half housings 100 caves inward and the shape that forms opening 126, the second half housings 102 correspondingly caves in, and so just makes connector 114 expose to the accommodation space that the first half housings 100 and the second half housings 102 form.When this blade-type external expansion card module of combination, expansion card 110 is fixed on base plate 116 abreast by screw, adapter 112 is parallel to the second sidewall 122 and arranges, and be screwed on the second sidewall 122, and the PCI golden finger of expansion card 110 is inserted in the PCI slot 128 of adapter 112, then the L-type spacer 108 of the second half housings 102 is inserted respectively in the chute 106 of the first half housings 100 corresponding with it, then by the first half housings 100 and the second half housing 102 relative slidings, until L-type spacer 108 engages with chute 106, now the locking wall 124 of the first half housings overlaps with the corresponding screw hole on the second sidewall 122, locked together with screw, complete assembling.In addition, for this blade-type external expansion card module is plugged easily in cabinet, on the second half housings 102, be provided with leader's structure, comprise a handles 130 and a fastener 132.Handle 130 is strip, and its bottom is articulated in the second half housings 102 and has a bayonet socket 136, and its upper end has the crotch 138 of an outward, fastener 132 is L-type elastic body, its one end is fixed on the second half housings 102, and the other end has a snap fit, fastens with the upper end of handle 130.
Now please refer to Fig. 3, it is to illustrate schematic diagram after the assembling of an embodiment of blade-type external expansion card module of the present invention.After the first half housings 100 and the second half housing 102 combinations, form the shell of blade-type external expansion card module, expansion card 110 and adapter 112 (not illustrating) are placed in the accommodation space of shell, but opening 126 places of shell front end, the connector 114 of adapter 112 exposes to shell, its direction is parallel to the plug direction of blade-type external expansion card module, in order to this blade-type external expansion card module and cabinet are electrically connected.The L-type spacer 108 of the second half housings 102 inserts respectively in the chute 106 of the first half housings 100 corresponding with it, then by the first half housings 100 and the second half housing 102 relative slidings, until L-type spacer 108 engages with chute 106, now the locking wall 124 of the first half housings overlaps with the corresponding screw hole on the second sidewall 122, locked together with screw, with this, completed assembling.In the rear end of shell, the namely opposite side of opening 126, is provided with leader 130 and a fastener 132 on the second half housings 102.
In order to further illustrate engaging of L-type spacer and chute, please refer to Fig. 4, it is the schematic diagram that illustrates L-type spacer and chute snap-in structure in Fig. 3.In figure, chute 106 is square, and the folding line place that it is positioned at the folded walls 104 of the first half housings 100, therefore can observe its position easily.The length of L-type spacer 108 is less than chute 106, therefore L-type spacer can be inserted to chute 106.L-type spacer is being inserted after chute 106, by the first half housings 100 and the second half housing 102 relative slidings, make the place, right angle of L-type spacer 108 be close to the end of chute 106, so just in the mode that is similar to grab, the relative position of the first half housings 100 and the second half housings 102 is fixed.
Please refer to Fig. 5, it is the schematic diagram that illustrates blade-type external expansion card module of the present invention and cabinet.Cabinet 500 has multiple parallel tracks arranged side by side so that the use of multiple blade-type external expansion card modules to be provided.Blade-type external expansion card module is with its rear end, and opening 126 is pegged graft and extracts along track towards cabinet 500 with connector 114 place ends.When blade-type external expansion card module is plugged on cabinet 500 when interior, the connector 114 exposing is just electrically connected blade-type external expansion card module and cabinet 500.Now the bayonet socket 136 of handle 130 bottoms blocks the edge of cabinet 500 base plates, makes it be difficult for getting loose and skid off.When needs are extracted cabinet 500 by blade-type external expansion card module, the upper end of handle 130 is separation with fastener 132, the crotch 138 of holding 130 ends on handle makes the bayonet socket 136 of handle 130 bottoms depart from the interference at the edge of cabinet 500 base plates, and blade-type external expansion card module is pulled out to cabinet 500.
Blade-type external expansion card module reliable in structure provided by the present invention, utilize L-type spacer and engaging of chute to make its disassembly and assembly easy, that connector that utilization exposes is realized is independent, easily by the object of its hot plug in cabinet, improve the efficiency of installing and safeguarding.
Although the present invention discloses as above with way of example; so it is not in order to limit the present invention; any those of ordinary skill in the art; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when being used for a variety of modifications and variations, the scope that therefore protection scope of the present invention ought define depending on claims is as the criterion.
