The frame has a snap relationship of 100. In detail, as shown in FIG. 6, the snap hole 212 is moved relative to the latching member 110 so that the support arm 111 is located in the latching section 214. In this way, the side edge of the support arm 111 abuts against the buckle segment The end edge of the 214 is such that the end of the support arm 111 and the snap portion 214 abut each other to limit the freedom of movement of the carrier disk 200 in the X-axis direction (in the direction in which the bearing surface 211 extends). Moreover, the abutting surface 113 abuts against the bearing surface 211 to limit the freedom of movement of the carrier disk 200 in the direction away from the bearing surface 211 (ie, the Z-axis). In addition, when the carrier 200 is in the latching position, the coupling member 230 is aligned with the coupling portion 120, so that the coupling member 230 is pressed downward and locked to the joint portion 120, thereby limiting the carrier tray 200 in the Y-axis direction ( The movement in the direction in which the bearing surface 211 extends is free and the carrier 200 is fixed to the carrier 100 (as shown in FIG. 7).

On the contrary, when the carrier tray 200 is displaced from the buckle position to the release position (as shown in FIG. 5), since the block 112 will abut against the stop wall 215, the displacement distance of the carrier tray 200 is restricted. The abutting surface 113 of the block 112 does not engage the bearing surface 211 to prevent the assembler from taking the carrier 200 out.

The servo host and the carrier tray thereof disclosed in the present invention are configured to pass through the latching member and the joint portion of the carrier and the structure of the buckle portion, the release portion and the joint member on the carrier tray, so that the assembler can pass the two-stage type. The bonding mode enables the carrier tray to be quickly fixed to the carrier to improve the assembly convenience of the server. Firstly, through the engagement of the release portion of the snap hole and the engagement of the buckle portion with the buckle member, the carrier tray is quickly guided from the release position to the buckle position, and the coupling member is aligned with the joint portion. Then, the binding member is locked on the joint portion to fix the carrier tray to the carrier.

Furthermore, since the end edge of the release section is provided with a retaining wall, when the block is displaced from the snap section to the release section, the block can abut against the retaining wall to prevent the block from slipping over the head and jamming around the release section. The bearing surface enhances the assembly convenience of the server.

In addition, the elastic member of the coupling member normally keeps the screw away from the bearing surface to prevent the screw from touching the object on the bearing surface, so that the carrier plate can smoothly slide relative to the carrier, thereby improving the assembly convenience of the server.

Although the embodiments of the present invention are disclosed above, it is not intended to limit the present invention, and those skilled in the art, regardless of the spirit and scope of the present invention, the shapes, configurations, and features described in the scope of the present application. And the number of modifications may be made, and the scope of patent protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope of the patent application attached to the specification.
