Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Technical field> The present invention is a board storage box in which a guide rail is set up in the center of the board insertion slot, and each board can be stored in multiple stages on both sides of the guide rail. It is about improvement.

<Prior Art> Conventionally, an electronic device such as a personal computer has a box provided at the rear of the main body to accommodate an option board (substrate) for function expansion.

Normally, this box has a rectangular opening as shown in Figure 1, and guide rails are provided on both sides and the center, and two and three stages are provided on both sides (left and right) of the guide rail in the center. The structure is such that each board can be stored horizontally in tiers.

However, this type of box has the disadvantage that when the size of the board is increased in order to upgrade the personal computer, the guide rail in the center gets in the way and cannot be stored.

<Purpose> The present invention was developed in view of the drawbacks of the conventional technology, and its purpose is to separate the guide rail body installed in the center from between the upper rail and the lower rail. To provide a substrate storage box capable of storing a substrate twice the size of a conventional one.

<Example> The present invention will be explained in detail below based on the figures.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a substrate storage box according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the structure of a guide rail in the center.

In the figure, reference numerals 1 and 2 are the right side wall and the left side wall of the substrate storage box, and each side wall is provided with a rib 3 that bulges inwardly to support the inserted substrate.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a board insertion slot of the board storage box, and a board guide rail 5 is installed in the center of this slot, and two boards are placed on each side of this guide rail.
It is configured so that two substrates 6 can be stored horizontally.

As shown in FIG. 2, the guide rail 5 consists of a lower guide rail main body 5-1 having rails 5-2 on both sides, and an upper guide rail main body 5-3 also having rails 5-4 on both sides. The upper guide rail main body 5-1 is inserted into the groove 5-5 formed at the top of the lower guide rail main body 5-1.
After fitting a convex portion (not shown) formed on the bottom of the main body 3 and sliding it in the direction of the arrow in the figure, the two main bodies can be integrated with screws 5-6.

The guide rail 5 is arranged at the center of the storage box as shown in FIG. 1, and only the lower guide rail main body 5-1 is fixed to the storage box with screws or the like.

According to such a configuration, as shown in FIG.
By removing the upper guide rail body 5-3 from the lower guide rail body 5-1 by removing the screws 5-6, you can store a board that is twice the size of the conventional one, as shown in Figure 3. The board 7 can be stored. In particular, with this configuration, it is sufficient to remove one screw 5-6 from the board insertion port side, and the user can easily replace the board.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the guide rail 5 can be divided into two, but it may be configured so that it can be divided into three or four parts depending on the number of board storage stages, and may be separated as necessary. .

<Effects> As described above, the board storage box of the present invention is configured such that the guide rail body installed upright in the center of the board insertion slot can be separated and connected as appropriate between the rails. Even the guard can accommodate a board twice the size of the conventional one, making it easy to expand functionality. Furthermore, since each member of the guide rail that can be separated and combined has continuous grooves and protrusions on its end face, each member can be combined or separated while sliding in the board insertion or board removal direction. In addition, fewer fasteners are needed to connect members and each member to the box, making work from the board insertion slot very easy.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a board storage box according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the structure of a guide rail at the center of the board insertion slot, and FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a double-sized board inserted. 1 and 2 are the left and right side walls of the board storage box, 4 is the board insertion slot, 5 is the center guide rail, 5-1 is the lower guide rail body, 5-3 is the upper guide rail body, 5-5 is the recess Groove, 5-6 are fixing screws,
7 is a board that is twice the size.

Claims (1)

[Claims for Utility Model Registration] Having a board insertion slot on the front, a guide rail erected in the depth direction at the center of the board insertion slot,
A board storage box into which a board is inserted through the board insertion opening and which can store the board horizontally on both sides of the guide rail, wherein the guide rail includes a plurality of members each having an arbitrary number of rail grooves on both sides. The members are formed by being stacked in the upright direction, and each member has a concave groove continuous in the length direction on one predetermined surface of the upper and lower laminated surfaces, and a concave groove continuous in the length direction on the other surface. A substrate storage device comprising a convex portion that can be fitted into a concave groove, and each of the members can be coupled and separated by sliding back and forth in the substrate insertion direction through the concave groove and convex portion of the laminated surface. Box.
