Detailed Description

The following detailed description of the present utility model is provided with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so as to further understand the purpose, the scheme and the effects of the present utility model, but not to limit the scope of the appended claims.

Referring to fig. 1 to 5, a latch type fastener provided by the present utility model is disposed on a computer motherboard for fixing a computer device, such as an interface card, and herein an m.2ssd module and a heat sink module thereof are taken as an example.

The motherboard 4 has a board body provided with an electrical connector 43 for plugging in the M.2SSD module, and a main embedding hole 41 is arranged at a distance from the electrical connector 43.

The buckle 1 comprises a socket 2 and a bolt 3 which are connected by a lacing 11. The socket 2 is provided with a pin hole 21 penetrating up and down for inserting the plug 3 therein. The bottom of the socket 2 is provided with a fitting portion 22 for being inserted into the main fitting hole 41, thereby being fixed on the motherboard 4. In this embodiment, the engaging portion 22 is two elongated flexible sheets 221 respectively located at two opposite sides of the pin hole 21, wherein an outer diameter defined by outer edges of the two flexible sheets 221 is slightly smaller than an aperture of the main engaging hole 41, and only after the pin 3 is inserted into the pin hole 21, the pin 3 extends between the two flexible sheets 221 and stretches the two flexible sheets 221 outwards, so that the two flexible sheets 221 are tightly abutted against the main engaging hole 41, and the socket 2 is fixed on the motherboard 4.

The latch 3 includes a head 31 and a pin 32 extending from a bottom surface 311 of the head 31, wherein the pin 32 has a radially-expanding collar 321. On the other hand, a ring groove 211 is formed on the wall of the pin hole 21, and when the plug 3 is inserted into the pin hole 21, the convex ring portion 321 can be embedded into the ring groove 211, so that the plug 3 can be positioned at a fixed position.

The socket 2 has a first supporting surface 23 formed around the pin hole 21 for supporting the m.2ssd module. The periphery of the pin hole 21 is provided with a threshold 24 higher than the first supporting surface 23, wherein the threshold 24 is formed in a shape of narrow upper part and wide lower part, and the side surface is a slope 241. Around the pin hole 21 is a vertical wall 25 having a height greater than that of the m.2ssd module, which is formed in a half-circle ring shape with a concave side facing the electrical connector 43. In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the concave side of the standing wall 25 faces the electrical connector 43, the motherboard 4 is further provided with an auxiliary embedded hole 42 near the main embedded hole 41; on the other hand, the bottom of the socket 2 is further provided with an eccentric engaging portion 27 formed in a column shape, which is engaged in the auxiliary engaging hole 42. By inserting the fitting portion 22 into the main fitting hole 41 and inserting the eccentric fitting portion 27 into the auxiliary fitting hole 42, the socket 2 can be fixed on the motherboard 4, and the socket 2 can be further prevented from rotating on the motherboard 4.

Two guide blocks 26 are disposed on the side of the upright wall 25 facing the first supporting surface 23, and are respectively located on two sides of the pin hole 21, and the bottom surface 261 is separated from the first supporting surface 23 by a space 260; the bottom surface 261 of the guide block 26 is further defined to be higher than the threshold 24. The guide block 26 is a triangular block and has a slope 262.

The top of the vertical wall 25 defines a second supporting surface 251 for supporting the radiator module. The bottom surface 311 of the head 31 of the bolt 3 is provided with a pressing block 33 which is formed in a semi-circle ring shape and is adjacent to one side of the pin 32, and a ring part 312 is defined in a region of the bottom surface 311 of the head 31 which is located at the outer side of the pressing block 33 in the radial direction. When the bolt 3 is inserted into the pin hole 21 and positioned at the fixed position, the half-circle annular pressing block 33 is correspondingly complementary to the half-circle annular standing wall 25 and is located above the first supporting surface 23, and the annular portion 312 of the bottom surface 311 of the head 31 is located above the second supporting surface 251.

With the above structure, the assembly process of the m.2ssd module and the heat sink module thereof is shown in fig. 6 to 9. Referring to fig. 6 and 7, the m.2ssd module 5 is first abutted with one end against the electrical connector, and the end of the m.2ssd module 5 is pivoted downward and abutted against the inclined surface 262 of the guiding block 26 by taking the end as a fulcrum, and then the m.2ssd module 5 is pressed downward to be guided and slid onto the first supporting surface 23 of the socket 2 along the inclined surface 262. In the above process, since the engaging portion 22 is not yet supported by the bolt to tightly abut against the main engaging hole, the socket 2 can still swing left and right so that the m.2ssd module 5 can cross the guide block 26 to come onto the first supporting surface 23.

As shown in fig. 7A, the end of the m.2ssd module 5 has a semicircular cavity 51, and the cavity 51 can slide down against the slope 241 of the threshold 24 while the end of the m.2ssd module 5 slides down the guide block 26 to the first supporting surface 23, so that the m.2ssd module 5 can be positioned smoothly.

Referring next to fig. 8, the radiator module 6 is abutted with one end against the electrical connector, and with this as a fulcrum, its end is pivoted downward and abutted against the second supporting surface 251 of the upright wall 25. As shown in fig. 8A, the end of the radiator module 6 has a circular through hole 61 corresponding to the pin hole 21, and the second supporting surface 251 abuts against the hole edge of the through hole 61.

Then, the bolt 3 is inserted into the pin hole and positioned at the fixed position, and as shown in fig. 9, the pressing block 33 is moved above the first supporting surface 23 and pressed at the end of the m.2ssd module 5; at the same time, the head 31 moves above the second supporting surface 251 and presses the end of the radiator module 6 with the ring 312 of the bottom surface. When the plug 3 supports the embedded portion 22 and further abuts against the main embedded hole, the socket 2 can be automatically guided and fastened on the motherboard 4, and the guiding block 26 forms a limiting effect on the m.2ssd module 5 above the m.2ssd module 5 based on the guiding of the socket 2.

Accordingly, the utility model can fix the M.2SSD module 5 and the radiator module 6 thereof at the same time by only one action of inserting the bolt 3 into the pin hole 21, and the operation process is very simple. On the other hand, the buckle part (comprising the socket 2 and the plug 3) of the present utility model can be made of plastic materials by injection molding technology, and has low cost and rapid production, thus having commercial competitiveness.

Of course, the present utility model is capable of other various embodiments and its several details are capable of modification and variation in light of the present utility model, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model as defined in the appended claims.
