Embodiment
Fig. 1 is the synoptic diagram of the electronics module of one embodiment of the invention, and Fig. 2 is the electronics module of Fig. 1 and the decomposing schematic representation of host machine casing.Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, electronics module 100 is suitable for being assembled to a host machine casing 50.Host machine casing 50 has one first through hole 52.Electronics module 100 comprises a housing 110, a circuit board 120, a plurality of support member 130 and one first fixture 140.In the present embodiment, host machine casing 50 for example is a computer chassis, and circuit board 120 for example is a direct current plate (DC board).These support members comprise one first support member 130 ' and a plurality of the second support members 130 ".
Housing 110 has one second through hole 112, and is corresponding with the first through hole 52.Circuit board 120 has a plurality of chutes 122, and these support members 130 are slidedly arranged in these chutes 122.These chutes 122 have respectively a first paragraph 122a and a second segment 122b who interconnects.The size of each first paragraph 122a is greater than the size of each second segment 122b.In addition, one of them second segment 122b of these chutes 122 is relative with the second through hole 112, and the second segment 122b of chute 122 that the first support member 130 ' namely is installed is relative with the second through hole 112.In the present embodiment, chute 122 can be Pear-Shaped, and the chute 122 of second segment 122b and the second through hole 112 is the first chute, other be the second chute.
Fig. 3 is the enlarged diagram of the support member of Fig. 1.Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 3, these support members 130 have respectively a neck 132.The size of each neck 132 conforms to the size of each second segment 122b.Put into chute 122 and after these second segments 122b moved, each neck 132 was positioned at each second segment 122b from these first paragraphs 122a respectively at these support members 130.At this moment, circuit board 120 is subject to the support of these support members 130, and keeps a gap with housing 110.In the present embodiment, these support members 130 also have respectively one first flange 134 and one second flange 136, and each neck 132 is between each first flange 134 and each the second flange 136.Also namely, when these support members 130 were installed on circuit board 120, circuit board 120 can be held between the first flange 134 and the second flange 136.
Please refer to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the first support member 130 ' has a fixed orifice F, and is relative with the second through hole 112.When the first fixture 140 passes the first through hole 52 and the second through hole 112 and is fixed in fixed orifice F, can finish the assembling of electronics module 100 and host machine casing 50.Also namely, the first fixture passes this first through hole 52 and fixed orifice F successively, so that electronics module 100 is fixed in host machine casing 50.
It is worth mentioning that, the chute 122 that adds Pear-Shaped by these support members 130 not only can fixing circuit board 120, the first support member 130 ' wherein can be used for fixing again the ironware of support circuit plate 120 and part on every side simultaneously, can save cost again so that alignment error reduces.In the present embodiment, the first fixture 140 for example is a screw.Specifically, electronics module 100 is fixing with host machine casing 50, can use the first support member 130 ', and forms fixed orifice F and stamp screw thread on the first support member 130 '.Thus, the first support member 130 ' just can be used as the usefulness of the nut of locking screw, and and the sidewall of host machine casing 50 lock together.Like this, a screw just can be fixed in host machine casing 50 with this electronics module 100.
In addition, the first support member 130 ' also can have one first Embedded Division I1, is embedded in the second through hole 112.The shape of the first Embedded Division I1 can conform to the shape of the second through hole 112, and the shape of the second through hole 112 for example is sexangle.When the first fixture 140 screw locks during in fixed orifice F, can be by the form fit of the first Embedded Division I1 and the second through hole 112, and allow not relatively housing 110 rotations of the first support member 130 '.In another unshowned embodiment, the first fixture 140 also can be a rivet, not as limit.
In addition, housing 110 also has a plurality of third through-holes 118.These second support members 130 " have respectively one second Embedded Division I2, be embedded in respectively these third through-holes 118.In the present embodiment, the shape of these second Embedded Divisions I2 conforms to the shape of these third through-holes 118 respectively, and being shaped as of these third through-holes 118 for example is sexangle.In another unshowned embodiment, the first support member 130 ' and these second support members 130 " all can not need form the first Embedded Division I1 or the second Embedded Division I2, and both shapes might not be identical.
Fig. 4 is the synoptic diagram that peripheral device is connected to the electronics module of Fig. 1.Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 4, furthermore, housing 110 for example has a base plate 114 and a sidewall 116.Sidewall 116 vertically is connected to base plate 114, and the second through hole 112 is positioned at base plate 114 (as shown in Figure 2).In the present embodiment, electronics module 100 also can comprise a plurality of the first connectors 150 and a plurality of the second fixture 160.These first connectors 150 are connected to one first fringe region E1 of circuit board 120, and relative with sidewall 116 respectively.These second fixtures 160 pass sidewall 116 and are fixed to respectively these the first connectors 150.In addition, electronics module 100 also can comprise one second connector 170, is connected to one second fringe region E2 of circuit board 120.The first fringe region E1 can lay respectively at the second fringe region E2 the both sides of circuit board 120.This connects the second fixture 160 and for example is respectively a bronze medal post, and has internal thread, to allow screw lock.When a plurality of connectors 64 of peripheral device 60 were installed on respectively these first connectors 150, a plurality of fixtures 62 of peripheral device 60 can be locked respectively these second fixtures 160, came off to prevent these connectors 64.That is to say that the position relationship that these second fixtures 160 not only can fixing circuit board 120 opposing sidewalls 116 also can provide the fixedly usefulness of these connectors 64 of peripheral device 60.
In sum, electronics module of the present invention cooperates with the chute of Pear-Shaped by these support members and fixes circuit board, and the support member of one of them also can be used to stationary housing on host machine casing.Therefore, not only alignment error is reduced also and the saving cost.In addition, this support member also can have internal thread, is positioned at the inwall of fixed orifice.Thus, this support member just can be used as the usefulness of the nut of locking screw, and and the sidewall of host machine casing lock together.Like this, a screw just can be fixed in host machine casing with this electronics module, and is quite convenient.
Although the present invention discloses as above with embodiment; but it is not to limit the present invention, any person of ordinary skill in the field, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; can do suitable change and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention should be as the criterion with the scope that claims were defined.
