Compared with other guide rails 10, the plastic guide rail 10 has the advantages of simple structure, low operation cost, good shock resistance, low working noise, high bearing capacity, and excellent self-lubricating and wear-resisting properties due to noble plastic collocation.

Referring to fig. 4, in the tool-less guide rail 10 described herein, the fixing hole 101 is a gourd hole, and the fixing member 1001 is an i-pin.

Specifically, when the guide rail 10 is connected to the server chassis 100, the fixing member 1001 located on the server chassis 100 penetrates the fixing hole 101 located on the guide rail 10, and when the guide rail 10 slides to a certain position, the fixing member 1001 penetrates the small hole end of the fixing hole 101, so that the guide rail 10 is mounted on the server chassis 100, and when the guide rail 10 needs to be taken out from the server chassis 100, the fixing member 1001 can slide out of the small hole end of the fixing hole 101 only by sliding the guide rail 10 in the opposite direction, so as to take out the guide rail 10. In this way, tool-less installation and removal of the guide rail 10 can be achieved.

Referring to fig. 1-4, the tool-less mounting rail 10 described herein is specifically mounted as follows: when the guide rail 10 is connected with the server case 100, the guide rail 10 can slide in a certain range, and when the guide rail 10 slides, the fixing hole 101 on the guide rail 10 is penetrated by the fixing piece 1001 on the server case 100 until the fixing piece 1001 on the case is matched with the fixing piece 1001 for stopping the sliding, so that the guide rail 10 stops sliding to realize the connection with the server case 100; at this time, the limiting groove 1002 on the server chassis 100 also plays a certain limiting role on the limiting member 102 on the guide rail 10, so that the guide rail 10 is prevented from swinging on the front and rear sides and the upper and lower sides of the server chassis 100. Although the fixing member 1001 and the limit groove 1002 restrict the degrees of freedom of the guide rail 10 in 6 directions with respect to the server casing 100, in this case, a certain gap is provided between the guide rail 10 and the server casing 100, and the guide rail 10 is slightly moved to the left and right with respect to the server casing 100. Therefore, the back of the guide rail 10 is designed with the fastening piece 103, the height of the fastening piece 103 is slightly larger than the gap between the guide rail 10 and the server case 100, and the fastening piece 103 on the back of the guide rail 10 is in interference fit with the inner wall of the server case 100, so that the fastening piece 103 is tightly contacted with the server case 100, and the left and right shaking of the guide rail 10 is avoided.

Referring to fig. 5, the present application further provides a server chassis 100, including at least two guide rails 10 according to any one of the present application; the two rails 10 are located on either side of the interior of the server chassis 100 such that a separate receiving cavity 1003 is formed between the two tool-less mounted rails 10.

It should be noted that, after the guide rail 10 is assembled with the server chassis 100, the single guide rail 10 cannot support the card assembly in the server chassis 100, and only one direction can be restricted. A separate accommodating cavity 1003 can be formed between the two guide rails 10, each accommodating cavity 1003 corresponds to the insert component 1004 one by one, no fixing piece 1001 is arranged between the insert component 1004 and the guide rail 10, and the insert component 1004 is connected to the accommodating cavity 1003 in a sliding manner through the guide rail 10. The plug-in module 1004 is secured to a locking device on the plug-in module 1004 of the server chassis 100. The main function of the guide rails 10 is to enable the plug-in components 1004 to run between the two guide rails 10, so that the plug-in components 1004 slide or lock in the accommodating cavity 1003 of the server chassis 100, and various plug-in component grouping management is realized.
