For convenience of description, a coordinate system is now defined as shown in fig. 1.

Example one

As shown in fig. 1, a chassis applied to an 8U server includes a chassis main body 1, and the chassis main body 1 is only a chassis main body 1 applied to an 8U server in the prior art, which is not described herein again.

As shown in fig. 1, a front upper cover 2, an upper middle cover 3 and a rear upper cover 4 are sequentially arranged on the upper side of the chassis body 1 from front to back, wherein the front upper cover 2 and the rear upper cover 4 are respectively fixedly connected with the chassis body 1. As shown in fig. 2, the cross section of the upper cover 3 is U-shaped, and the wing plates 32 of the upper cover 3 are located outside the casing body 1. The rear end of the wing plate 32 of the upper cover 3 is provided with an ear plate 321, and the ear plate 321 is hinged with the case body 1 through a hinge shaft.

As shown in fig. 1, a locking mechanism for the upper middle cover 3 is provided between the front end of the upper middle cover 3 and the upper front cover 2. As a specific implementation manner, two sets of locking mechanisms are provided between the upper middle cover 3 and the upper front cover 2 in the embodiment.

As shown in fig. 6 and 7, the locking mechanism includes a support plate 23 disposed on the lower side of the front upper cover 2, and as a specific embodiment, the support plate 23 is fixedly connected to the front upper cover 2 by a rivet. As shown in fig. 8, the supporting plate 23 is of a U-shaped structure with an upward opening, and the hanging ends of the wing plates 32 on both sides of the supporting plate 23 are provided with connecting plates, and the connecting plates are fixedly connected with the front upper cover 2 through rivets. Thus, a gap is formed between the supporting plate 23 and the front upper cover 2, a locking tongue 24 is arranged in the gap between the supporting plate 23 and the front upper cover 2, and the locking tongue 24 can slide back and forth along the gap.

As shown in fig. 9, the latch bolt 24 is provided with an operation hole 241, and as shown in fig. 5, a through hole 22 corresponding to the operation hole 241 is provided at a position of the front upper cover 2 corresponding to the latch bolt 24. Thus, when operating, a hand can be inserted into the operation hole 241 through the through hole 22, and then the latch 24 is operated.

As shown in fig. 9, the locking tongue 24 is provided with a guide groove 242, and the supporting plate 23 is fixedly provided with a positioning post 231 matched with the guide groove 242.

In a specific embodiment, two guide slots 242 are respectively disposed at the front side and the rear side of the operation hole 241 in this embodiment, and four guide slots 242 are arranged in a matrix.

As shown in fig. 10, the guide groove 242 includes a first positioning hole 2421, a transition part 2423 and a second positioning hole 2422 in sequence from front to back, the first positioning hole 2421 and the second positioning hole 2422 have the same diameter, and the minimum width of the transition part 2423 in the left-right direction is smaller than the diameters of the first positioning hole 2421 and the second positioning hole 2422. As shown in fig. 8 and 11, the latch tongue 24 is in an extended state when the positioning post 231 is engaged with the first positioning hole 2421, and the latch tongue 24 is in a retracted state when the positioning post 231 is engaged with the second positioning hole 2422.

As a specific implementation manner, in the guide groove 242 described in this embodiment, an arc-shaped protrusion protruding toward the inside of the oblong hole is provided at one side of the oblong hole.

As shown in fig. 4, a plug board 311 bent downward is disposed at the front end of the web 31, a latch hole 312 matched with the latch 24 is disposed on the plug board 311, when the latch 24 extends, the rear end of the latch 24 is inserted into the latch hole 312, and when the latch 24 retracts, the latch 24 is separated from the latch hole 312.

Preferably, the latch bolt 24 is made of hard rubber.

Further, for convenience of operation, as shown in fig. 9, a pre-deformation hole 243 having an elongated shape is disposed on the left side or the right side of the guide slot 242, so that when the positioning post 231 slides relative to the guide slot 242, when the positioning post 231 is located at the transition part 2423 having a narrow width, a portion between the guide slot 242 and the pre-deformation hole 243 is deformed toward one side of the pre-deformation hole 243, thereby facilitating operation.

Further, in order to avoid that all the weight of the middle upper cover 3 is borne by the latch 24 and the service life of the locking mechanism is shortened, as shown in fig. 5, a support plate 21 arranged along the horizontal direction is provided at the rear end of the front upper cover 2, and the support plate 21 is provided with a plug hole 211 matched with the plug plate 311.

Further, in order to ensure that the upper cover 3 can be reliably locked and avoid vibration during the operation of the device, as shown in fig. 4, a first tensioning protrusion protruding downwards is provided on the web 31 of the upper cover 3 at a position corresponding to the latch hole 312. Therefore, when the locking tongue 24 extends out and is inserted into the locking tongue hole 312, the locking tongue 24 is pressed on the lower side surface of the locking tongue hole 312 through the first tensioning protrusion, and a gap between the locking tongue 24 and the locking tongue hole 312 is avoided.

Similarly, as shown in fig. 3, the wing plate 32 of the upper cover 3 is provided with a second tensioning protrusion 322 protruding inwards.

Example two

As shown in fig. 12, L-shaped bent plates bent inward are respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the latch tongue 24 on the lower side surface of the front upper cover 2, a U-shaped sliding slot is formed between the L-shaped bent plates and the front upper cover 2, the latch tongue 24 is disposed in the U-shaped sliding slot and can slide back and forth along the U-shaped sliding slot, the positioning post 231 is fixedly disposed on the front upper cover 2, and the rest of the structure is the same as that of the first embodiment.

EXAMPLE III

The positioning post 231 is fixedly disposed on the front upper cover 2, and the rest of the structure is the same as that of the first embodiment.

The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the principle of the invention, and such modifications and improvements are also considered to be within the scope of the invention.
