Detailed Description

The following description of the embodiments of the present application will be made clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is apparent that the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, an embodiment of the present application provides a hard disk cage, including a cage body 2 and a bracket disposed in the cage body 2, where the cage body 2 is a main body portion of the hard disk cage and has a containing space for containing a hard disk, and the bracket is used for mounting the hard disk, that is, the bracket plays a supporting role on the hard disk mounted in the containing space. The bracket comprises a body 1 and an elastic piece 11 arranged on the body 1, wherein the body 1 is provided with a first surface and a second surface which are opposite, the elastic piece 11 protrudes out of at least one of the first surface and the second surface, and the elastic piece 11 can elastically deform along the supporting direction of the bracket to the hard disk. That is, at least part of the elastic member 11 protrudes from the hard disk facing side of the body 1, that is, part or all of the elastic member 11 protrudes from the hard disk supporting side of the body 1. After a hard disk (not shown in the figure) is placed in the accommodating space of the hard disk cage, the elastic piece 11 on the bracket is in contact with the outer surface of the hard disk to provide support, and the elastic piece 11 can elastically deform along the supporting direction of the bracket to the hard disk to play a role in buffering and damping, so that the bracket can effectively influence external vibration (such as vibration during the operation of a fan) on the performance of the hard disk.

Specifically, the elastic member 11 may have various structural forms, as shown in fig. 1, in this embodiment, the elastic member 11 is a spring plate, i.e. the elastic member 11 is in a plate shape. In a preferred embodiment, the elastic member 11 may be provided in a strip shape, one end of the elastic member 11 is fixedly connected with the body 1, the other end is freely suspended, and the free end of the elastic member 11 contacts with the hard disk to elastically support the hard disk. It should be understood that, in order to perform an insertion guiding function for the hard disk, the end of the elastic member 11 fixed to the body 1 is disposed toward the inlet side of the aforementioned accommodation space. In order to reduce wear on the outer surface of the hard disk, the free end of the elastic member 11 may be provided with an arc-shaped surface for contact with the hard disk, for example, in the present embodiment, the elastic member 11 has an S-shaped longitudinal section, and has an arc-shaped surface toward the aforementioned first face side of the body 1 and an arc-shaped surface toward the aforementioned second face side of the body 1.

When the elastic member 11 is provided in a plate shape, besides the aforementioned structure in which one end is fixed and the other end is freely suspended, the elastic member 11 may be provided in a form in which both ends are fixed to the body 1, for example, the elastic member 11 is provided in an arch shape, both ends are fixedly connected to the body 1, and elastic deformation is mainly generated by means of the middle portion. In addition, the elastic member 11 may be configured as a circular disc, and the edge of the elastic member 11 is fixedly connected with the body 1, and also mainly relies on elastic deformation of the middle portion.

The mounting position of the bracket in the cage body 2 can be set according to the requirement, as shown in fig. 3, in this embodiment, the bracket is mounted in the middle of the accommodating space, and can separate the upper hard disk and the lower hard disk. As shown in fig. 1, in this embodiment, the body 1 of the bracket is provided with a through hole 12 penetrating the first surface and the second surface, and the elastic member 11 is located in the through hole 12. As shown in fig. 1, in order to simultaneously perform elastic buffering function on the upper and lower hard disks, in this embodiment, a plurality of elastic members 11 are provided, wherein some of the elastic members 11 protrude from a first surface, such as an upper surface, of the body 1, and other elastic members 11 protrude from a second surface, such as a lower surface, of the body 1, so that some of the elastic members 11 contact with the upper hard disk and other of the elastic members 11 contact with the lower hard disk to perform supporting function. In other embodiments, the first part of the elastic member 11 may protrude from the first surface of the body 1, and the second part of the elastic member 11 may protrude from the second surface of the body 1, so that the first part and the second part of the elastic member 11 contact with the upper hard disk and the lower hard disk respectively to play a supporting role.

As shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the elastic member 11 and the body 1 are integrally formed. Of course, the elastic member 11 and the body 1 may be two members connected together by welding, caulking, bolting, or the like. In order to facilitate the mounting of the bracket to the cage body 2 of the hard disk cage, the body 1 of the bracket may be provided with a connecting post 13 for a fixed connection with the hard disk cage. In this embodiment, the side of the body 1 is provided with a plurality of connecting posts 13, correspondingly, the cage 2 is provided with a plurality of connecting holes 21, and when the bracket is mounted, the connecting posts 13 pass through the connecting holes 21 and can be fixed by riveting, welding or the like.
