Description

CD player baffle fixing device

The invention relates to a disc player baffle fixing device.

A general electronic device (such as a computer) is equipped with a data access device such as a CD player in the chassis, and a plurality of optical disk drive inlets are arranged on the panel. For dust protection and aesthetics, a shutter is usually installed at the entrance of the disc drive. The card cover is generally provided with some legs to cooperate with the hole on the chassis to buckle the baffle to the chassis. However, when the CD player needs to be installed or used, the baffle must be removed from the chassis, which requires a lot of effort or tools to complete the disassembly, which makes the whole operation process cumbersome and time consuming. Moreover, it is possible to scratch the panel to affect the appearance when installing and removing the baffle.

With the development of the technology, there is a rotary baffle that does not need to be detached from the computer case. For example, a disc player baffle fixing device disclosed in Chinese Patent No. 200520056693.2 includes a panel, a baffle and a spring on the panel. An optical disk drive inlet is disposed, the baffle is mounted on the panel and the optical disk drive inlet is closed, and two ends of the spring are respectively fixed on the panel and the baffle, and the panel is respectively disposed on two sides of the optical disk drive inlet The mounting mechanism includes a pair of connecting members, and a first fixing shaft and a second fixing shaft are respectively disposed at two ends of each connecting member, and the first fixing shaft is rotatably mounted in the mounting slot The second fixed shaft is rotatably mounted on the baffle. The disc player baffle fixing device realizes the rotation of the baffle through a pair of connecting members, and the baffle plate is easy to shake and is not fixed firmly.

In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a stable optical disk drive baffle fixing device.

A disc player baffle fixing device comprises a panel body and a baffle, the panel body is provided with an inlet for the disc player to enter and exit, the baffle is used for closing the inlet, and the panel body is respectively disposed on two sides of the inlet The utility model has a fixed shaft and a through groove. The baffle plate is provided with a pivoting piece which is rotatably received in the corresponding through groove, and each pivot piece has a curved sliding groove, and each curved shape is slippery. The slot is rotatably sleeved on the corresponding fixed shaft.

Compared with the prior art, the optical disk drive baffle fixing device cooperates with the two fixed shafts of the panel body through the arc-shaped sliding grooves of the two pivoting pieces of the baffle plate to realize the rotation of the baffle plate, and no swing during the rotating process. Quite stable.

Referring to FIG. 1, a preferred embodiment of the optical disk drive baffle fixing device of the present invention comprises a panel body 10, a baffle 20 and an elastic member 30.

The panel body 10 is disposed in front of an electronic device (not shown), and is provided with an inlet 11 for the optical disc to enter and exit the electronic device. The two opposite sides of the panel body 10 extend vertically rearwardly from a side wall 13 , and one of the side walls 13 defines an elongated mounting hole for receiving a trigger member 40 , and the trigger member 40 can touch the switch at the front of the optical disc drive. Show) to make the CD player automatically pop up. The panel body 10 defines an elongated slot 15 and a recess 17 extending toward the lower end of the panel body 10 in the vicinity of the two sides of the inlet 11 . A protrusion 19 is protruded from a side of each of the through slots 15 adjacent to the side wall 13 , and each of the protrusions 19 faces the panel body 10 . A fixed shaft 190 is provided in the middle portion. A blocking lever 12 is disposed in the middle of the panel body 10 below the inlet 11.

Referring to FIG. 2 together, the baffle 20 is used to close the inlet 11 of the optical disc drive of the panel 10. A pair of spaced arcuate projections 21 are protruded downwardly from the upper portion of the back surface. The pair of curved bumps 21 can be received in the inlet 11 and can be in contact with the disc player during ejection. A bent portion 23 is protruded between the pair of curved bumps 21. A fixing block 25 is protruded from the lower side of the bent portion 23, and a fixing post 250 parallel to the baffle 20 is protruded from a side surface of the fixing block 25. A pivoting piece 27 is respectively protruded from the lower edge of the baffle 20 near the two sides. Each pivoting piece 27 is provided with an arcuate chute 270 from top to bottom, and a lower shaft 272 is disposed on the lower edge of each pivoting piece 27 adjacent to the baffle 20.

The elastic member 30 is a torsion spring that includes two legs.

Referring to FIG. 3, when assembled, the elastic member 30 is sleeved on the fixing post 250 of the fixing block 25 of the baffle 20, and a leg is elastically abutted against the bent portion 23 of the baffle 20, and is blocked. The two pivoting pieces 27 of the plate 20 are rotatably mounted in the corresponding through grooves 15 of the panel body 10, and the arcuate sliding grooves 270 of each of the pivoting pieces 27 are slidably sleeved on the corresponding faces of the panel body 10. On the fixed shaft 190 of the bump 19, the other leg of the elastic member 30 is elastically abutted against the stopper 12 of the panel body 10. At this time, the elastic member 30 is in the first state, the first state is that the elastic member 30 is in a state of small elastic deformation, and the shutter 20 shields the inlet 11 of the panel body 10 from falling.

In use, the trigger member 40 is pressed, and the touch member 40 touches the switch at the front of the optical disc drive to automatically eject the optical disc drive. When the optical disk drive is ejected, the optical disk drive abuts against the curved bump 21 of the baffle 20, thereby causing the baffle 20 to rotate outward, when the optical disc When the machine protrudes from the inlet 11, the bottom surface abuts against the curved projection 21 to keep the shutter 20 open. At this time, the elastic member 30 is in the second state, and the second state is that the elastic member 30 is in the maximum elastic deformation state. When the baffle 20 is rotated about the two fixed shafts 190 of the panel body 10, the rotating shaft 272 of the upper pivot piece 27 abuts against the inner wall of the recess 17 of the panel body 10 and rotates together with the baffle 20. When the optical disk drive is retracted into the inlet 11, the elastic member 30 is elastically restored from the second state to the first state, and the shutter 20 is reset to block the inlet 11 of the panel body 10.

In other embodiments, the elastic element 30 can be omitted. At this time, the disc player baffle fixing device further includes a pair of tension springs, one end of each of the tension springs is respectively fixed to a lower end of a corresponding pivot piece 27, and the other end is fixed to an inner surface of the panel body 10. When the baffle 20 blocks the inlet 11 of the panel body 10, the pair of tension springs are in a tensioned state such that the baffle 20 does not fall, and at this time, the pair of tension springs are less elastically deformed; When the baffle 20 rotates, the pair of tension springs continue to be deformed by tension; when the baffle 20 is fully opened, the pair of tension springs are elastically deformed the most. When the optical disk drive protrudes into the inlet 11, the pair of tension springs elastically recover, causing the shutter 20 to be reset to block the inlet 11 of the panel body 10.

In summary, the present invention has indeed met the requirements of the invention patent, and has filed a patent application according to law. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and equivalent modifications or variations in the spirit of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
