The second guide post 164 is fixed on the second side frame 34 and is in contact with the second sliding groove. 162 sliding connection. Thereby, the second side wall 126 can slide relative to the second side frame 34.
於使用伸縮式硬碟托架1時,承載架12可經由第一側滑機構14及第二側滑機構16以一滑入方向D1滑入收納空間36內(如圖2所示)。當承載架12自收納空間36以相反於滑入方向D1之一滑出方向D2滑動時,第一導柱146於延伸方向144a相對於第一滑槽144滑動,直到封閉端144b擋止第一導柱146,同樣地,第二導柱164於延伸方向162a相對於第二滑槽162滑動,直到封閉端162b擋止第二導柱164;此時,承載架12即位於相當於圖1所示之位置。由於第一滑槽144的封閉端144b與第二滑槽162的封閉端162b均具有停止承載架12以滑出方向D2的滑動,故於實作上,封閉端144b及封閉端162b可擇一實施。When the retractable hard disk tray 1 is used, the carrier 12 can slide into the storage space 36 through the first side sliding mechanism 14 and the second side sliding mechanism 16 in a sliding direction D1 (as shown in FIG. 2). When the carrier 12 slides from the storage space 36 in a sliding direction D2 opposite to the sliding in direction D1, the first guide post 146 slides relative to the first sliding groove 144 in the extending direction 144a until the closed end 144b stops the first The guide post 146, similarly, the second guide post 164 slides relative to the second slide groove 162 in the extending direction 162a until the closed end 162b stops the second guide post 164; at this time, the carrier 12 is located equivalent to that shown in FIG.示 的 位置。 Show location. Since the closed end 144b of the first chute 144 and the closed end 162b of the second chute 162 both have the sliding stop of the carrier 12 in the sliding direction D2, in practice, one of the closed end 144b and the closed end 162b can be selected. Implementation.
另外,於本實施例中,第一滑槽144設置於第一側壁124,第一導柱146設置於第一側架32,但於實作上,第一滑槽144可改設置於第一側架32,第一導柱146則對應地改設置於第一側壁124,承載架12同樣能藉以相對於第一側架32滑動。同樣的,於本實施例中,第二滑槽162設置於第二側壁126,第二導柱164設置於第二側架34,但於實作上,第二滑槽162可改設置於第二側架34,第二導柱164則對應地改設置於第二側壁126,承載架12同樣能藉以相對於第二側架34滑動。In addition, in this embodiment, the first sliding groove 144 is disposed on the first side wall 124, and the first guide post 146 is disposed on the first side frame 32. However, in practice, the first sliding groove 144 may be disposed on the first side The side frame 32 and the first guide post 146 are correspondingly arranged on the first side wall 124. The carrier frame 12 can also slide relative to the first side frame 32. Similarly, in this embodiment, the second sliding slot 162 is disposed on the second side wall 126, and the second guide post 164 is disposed on the second side frame 34. However, in practice, the second sliding slot 162 may be disposed on the second The two side frames 34 and the second guide post 164 are correspondingly changed to the second side wall 126. The carrier frame 12 can also slide relative to the second side frame 34.
另外,於本實施例中,第一側滑機構14之第一滑槽144是形成在蓋板142,但於實作上,第一滑槽144可直接形成於第一側壁124,即類似第二滑槽162形成於第二側壁126之情形;此時,蓋板142可省略,導光條18另以其他方式固定,例如鎖固、膠黏或卡持於第一側壁124之卡持結構上。另外,於本實施例中,第一側滑機構14與第二側滑機構16雖結構不相同且不對稱,但於實作上可採結構相同、對稱之方式實施,不另詳述。In addition, in this embodiment, the first sliding groove 144 of the first side sliding mechanism 14 is formed on the cover plate 142, but in practice, the first sliding groove 144 may be directly formed on the first side wall 124, similarly to the first side wall 124. The two sliding grooves 162 are formed on the second side wall 126; at this time, the cover plate 142 can be omitted, and the light guide strip 18 is fixed in other ways, such as locking, gluing, or clamping on the first side wall 124. on. In addition, in this embodiment, although the first side sliding mechanism 14 and the second side sliding mechanism 16 have different structures and are not symmetrical, they can be implemented in the same and symmetrical manner in practice, and will not be described in detail.

In this embodiment, the first guide post 146 of the first sliding mechanism 14 includes a fixing post 1462 and a swivel ring 1464. The fixing post 1462 is fixed on the first side frame 32, and rotates. The ring 1464 is rotatably sleeved on the fixing post 1462 and is disposed in the first chute 144. Among them, the swivel ring 1464 has a cylindrical portion and an edge portion extending obliquely outward from one end of the cylindrical portion. The fixed post 1462 has a post and a head connected to one end of the post. The post passes through the cylindrical portion of the swivel 1464 and is fixed to the first side frame 32 with the post (for example, locking, riveting, etc.), so that the head of the fixed post 1462 is located at the edge of the swivel 1464 relative to the The other side of the cylindrical portion is such that the swivel ring 1464 can be rotatably sleeved on the post of the fixed post 1462 between the head of the fixed post 1462 and the first side frame 32. The swivel ring 1464 slides in the first chute 144 with its cylindrical portion. The edge of the swivel ring 1464 is located between the cover plate 142 and the first side wall 124, which can effectively prevent the first side wall 124 from being perpendicular to the extending direction 144a. Directional away from the first side frame 32. Also, in practice, the swivel ring 1464 must rotate as the first guide post 146 and the first sliding groove 144 relatively slide, in other words, the swivel ring 1464 and the first sliding groove 144 realize the first guide post 146 by rotational friction. Relative sliding with the first chute 144.
此外,於本實施例中,第一側壁124與第一側架32的滑動連接是透過兩組第一滑槽144與第一導柱146實現,於實作上,此兩個第一滑槽144可整合成單一滑槽;換言之,即有兩個第一導柱146同時滑動設置於單一個第一滑槽144中。此外,於本實施例中,第一導柱146主要以圓柱體結構實作,於實作上不以此為限。例如,第一導柱146亦得以結構與第一滑槽144輪廓吻合之方柱實作,此時方柱本身即具有維持第一滑槽144相對於第一導柱146水平滑動的效果。In addition, in this embodiment, the sliding connection between the first side wall 124 and the first side frame 32 is achieved through two sets of first sliding grooves 144 and first guide posts 146. In practice, these two first sliding grooves 144 can be integrated into a single chute; in other words, there are two first guide posts 146 slidingly disposed in a single first chute 144 at the same time. In addition, in this embodiment, the first guide post 146 is mainly implemented with a cylindrical structure, and the implementation is not limited thereto. For example, the first guide post 146 can also be implemented as a square post whose structure matches the contour of the first chute 144. At this time, the square post itself has the effect of maintaining the first chute 144 horizontally sliding relative to the first guide post 146.
另外,於本實施例中,第二側滑機構16之第二導柱164由鉚接於第二側架34上之一圓柱實現,於實作上不以此為限。例如,第二導柱164亦採與第一導柱146相同的結構實作;同樣的,第一導柱146亦可採與第二導柱164相同的結構實作。In addition, in this embodiment, the second guide post 164 of the second side sliding mechanism 16 is implemented by a cylinder riveted to the second side frame 34, which is not limited in practice. For example, the second guide post 164 is also implemented with the same structure as the first guide post 146; similarly, the first guide post 146 may also be implemented with the same structure as the second guide post 164.
此外,請併參閱圖7。於本實施例中,伸縮式硬碟托架1更包含一彈臂20,彈臂20設置於第二側壁126且具有一突出部202,朝向容置空間128突出。突出部202與硬碟4之一鎖孔44匹配,使得當硬碟4正確容置於容置空間128且承載架12滑入收納空間36內時,彈臂20可被第二側架34擠壓以使突出部202插入鎖孔44;換言之,若硬碟4未正確容置於容置空間128內時,彈臂20將無法有效平貼第二側壁126,使得第二側架34卡住彈臂20,承載架12無法完整滑入收納空間36內。因此,彈臂20的突出部202具有防呆功能,以避免硬碟4不正確的安裝。於本實施例中,彈臂20整體成一懸臂結構,例如以金屬條實作,其上固定(例如鉚接)有一柱體以作為突出部202。於本實施例中,彈臂20具有一固定端204及一自由端206,固定端204固定於第二側壁126上,自由端206自第二側壁126向外突出,突出部202位於自由端206。此外,於本實施例中,彈臂20固定於第二側壁126外側且位於第二側壁126與第二側架34之間,於實作上不以此為限,例如固定端204固定於第二側壁126內側,自由端206仍突出於第二側壁126(例如經由第二側壁126之通孔),使得當承載架12滑入收納空間36內時,自由端206能受到第二側架34擠壓以使突出部202進入容置空間128,此結構配置仍能實現前述防呆功能。Also, please refer to Figure 7. In this embodiment, the telescopic hard disk tray 1 further includes a spring arm 20. The spring arm 20 is disposed on the second side wall 126 and has a protruding portion 202 protruding toward the accommodation space 128. The protrusion 202 is matched with one of the lock holes 44 of the hard disk 4 so that when the hard disk 4 is correctly received in the accommodation space 128 and the carrier 12 slides into the storage space 36, the elastic arm 20 can be squeezed by the second side frame 34 In other words, if the hard disk 4 is not accommodated in the accommodating space 128 correctly, the elastic arm 20 will not be able to effectively lie flat against the second side wall 126, so that the second side frame 34 is stuck. The elastic arm 20 and the carrier 12 cannot slide completely into the storage space 36. Therefore, the protruding portion 202 of the elastic arm 20 has a fool-proof function to prevent the hard disk 4 from being incorrectly installed. In this embodiment, the elastic arm 20 is integrally formed into a cantilever structure, for example, implemented by a metal bar, and a post is fixed (eg, riveted) thereon as the protruding portion 202. In this embodiment, the spring arm 20 has a fixed end 204 and a free end 206. The fixed end 204 is fixed on the second side wall 126. The free end 206 projects outward from the second side wall 126, and the protrusion 202 is located on the free end 206. . In addition, in this embodiment, the elastic arm 20 is fixed outside the second side wall 126 and is located between the second side wall 126 and the second side frame 34, which is not limited in practice. For example, the fixed end 204 is fixed to the first side wall 126. Inside the two side walls 126, the free end 206 still protrudes from the second side wall 126 (for example, through the through hole of the second side wall 126), so that when the carrier 12 slides into the storage space 36, the free end 206 can be received by the second side frame 34 Squeeze to make the protruding portion 202 enter the accommodating space 128. This structural configuration can still achieve the aforementioned foolproof function.
此外,於本實施例中,彈臂20以額外的懸臂構件實作,於實作上不以此為限。例如,彈臂20直接以第二側壁126之一部分形成,即彈臂20為自第二側壁126彎折延伸形成;於實作上,彈臂20得與承載架12一體成型。又例如,彈臂20以一弓形結構實作,其一端固定於第二側壁126上,另一端滑動接觸於第二側壁126,突出部202設置於弓形結構中間部位且朝向容置空間128突出。此結構同樣能實現前述防呆功能。In addition, in this embodiment, the elastic arm 20 is implemented with an additional cantilever member, which is not limited in implementation. For example, the elastic arm 20 is directly formed by a part of the second side wall 126, that is, the elastic arm 20 is formed by bending and extending from the second side wall 126. In practice, the elastic arm 20 must be integrally formed with the carrier 12. As another example, the elastic arm 20 is implemented with an arcuate structure, one end of which is fixed on the second side wall 126 and the other end slides in contact with the second side wall 126. The protruding portion 202 is disposed at a middle portion of the arcuate structure and protrudes toward the accommodation space 128. This structure can also achieve the aforementioned foolproof function.
此外,於本實施例中,伸縮式硬碟托架1更包含一手把22及一卡持件24。手把22具有一樞接部222、一手持部224及一第一突出部226,樞接部222樞接至承載架12的底板120上,手持部224及第一突出部226連接至樞接部222且位於樞接部222之相對兩側。卡持件24設置於承載架12的底板120上。於實作上,手把22得以一塑膠射出件實現。請併參閱圖8,其中第一側架32及第二側架34沿圖7中線X-X剖面顯示。當承載架12以滑入方向D1朝向收納空間36滑動時,手把22可旋向承載架12以使手持部224卡持於卡持件24且第一突出部226卡入第二側架34之一定位孔342,使得承載架12能保持在收納空間36內。於實作上,於手把22旋向承載架12的過程中,第一突出部226可保持抵靠定位孔342之側壁,使得手把22能產生槓桿作用,以第一突出部226與定位孔342的接觸點為支點,使用者對手持部224施力,手把22以樞接部222以滑入方向D1推動承載架12;此亦有助於將承載架12完整滑入收納空間36內(於實作上,包含使硬碟4的連接器42與控制電路板38的連接器382銜接)。In addition, in this embodiment, the retractable hard disk tray 1 further includes a handle 22 and a holding member 24. The handlebar 22 has a pivoting portion 222, a handheld portion 224, and a first protruding portion 226. The pivoting portion 222 is pivotally connected to the bottom plate 120 of the carrier 12, and the handheld portion 224 and the first protruding portion 226 are connected to the pivotal portion. The portion 222 is located on opposite sides of the pivoting portion 222. The holding member 24 is disposed on the bottom plate 120 of the carrier 12. In practice, the handlebar 22 is realized by a plastic injection part. Please refer to FIG. 8, in which the first side frame 32 and the second side frame 34 are shown along a line X-X section in FIG. 7. When the carrier frame 12 slides toward the storage space 36 in the sliding-in direction D1, the handlebar 22 can be rotated toward the carrier frame 12 so that the hand-held portion 224 is locked on the holding member 24 and the first protruding portion 226 is locked on the second side frame 34 One positioning hole 342 allows the carrier 12 to be held in the storage space 36. In practice, during the process of turning the handlebar 22 toward the carrier 12, the first protruding portion 226 can be kept against the side wall of the positioning hole 342, so that the handlebar 22 can generate a leverage, and the first protruding portion 226 and the positioning The contact point of the hole 342 is a fulcrum. The user applies force to the hand-held portion 224, and the handle 22 pushes the carrier 12 with the pivoting portion 222 in the sliding direction D1; this also helps to slide the carrier 12 completely into the storage space 36. (In practice, the connector 42 of the hard disk 4 is connected to the connector 382 of the control circuit board 38).
此外,於本實施例中,卡持件24包含一固定部242、一卡勾部244及一彈性部246,固定部242固定於承載架12的底板120上,卡勾部244及彈性部246連接至固定部242。當卡持件24卡持手持部224時,卡勾部244勾持手持部224之一結構邊緣且彈性部246被手持部224彈性壓縮。當將卡勾部244自該結構邊緣移開時,被壓縮的彈性部246所產生的回彈力可推向外推動手把22,便於使用者抓持手持部224,以便於拉出承載架12。另外,於本實施例中,卡持件24包含一操作部248,連接至卡勾部244。當卡勾部244勾持手持部224時,操作部248可被操作(例如使用者移動操作部248)以使卡勾部244脫離手持部224,使得該被壓縮的彈性部246推動手持部224以使手把22旋離承載架12。此外,於本實施例中,卡持件24得以一塑膠射出件實現,於實作上不以此為限。例如,固定部242、卡勾部244及操作部248以單一構件(例如塑膠射出件)實作,彈性部246改以一彈簧實作,該彈簧之一端固定在固定部242上,其同樣能被手持部224壓縮而產生回彈力。In addition, in this embodiment, the holding member 24 includes a fixing portion 242, a hook portion 244, and an elastic portion 246. The fixing portion 242 is fixed to the bottom plate 120 of the carrier 12, and the hook portion 244 and the elastic portion 246 Connected to the fixing portion 242. When the holder 24 holds the hand-held portion 224, the hook portion 244 hooks one of the structural edges of the hand-held portion 224 and the elastic portion 246 is elastically compressed by the hand-held portion 224. When the hook portion 244 is removed from the edge of the structure, the rebound force generated by the compressed elastic portion 246 can push the handle 22 outward, which is convenient for the user to grasp the hand-held portion 224 so as to pull out the carrier 12 . In addition, in this embodiment, the holding member 24 includes an operation portion 248 connected to the hook portion 244. When the hook portion 244 hooks the handheld portion 224, the operation portion 248 can be operated (for example, the user moves the operation portion 248) to disengage the hook portion 244 from the handheld portion 224, so that the compressed elastic portion 246 pushes the handheld portion 224 So that the handle 22 is unscrewed from the carrier 12. In addition, in this embodiment, the holding member 24 is realized by a plastic injection member, which is not limited in practice. For example, the fixed portion 242, the hook portion 244, and the operation portion 248 are implemented by a single component (such as a plastic injection member), and the elastic portion 246 is implemented by a spring. One end of the spring is fixed on the fixed portion 242, which can also be It is compressed by the hand-held portion 224 to generate a rebound force.
此外,請併參閱圖9,其中第一側架32及第二側架34沿圖7中線X-X剖面顯示。於本實施例中,手把22包含一第二突出部228,相對於手持部224連接至樞接部222。當承載架12容置於收納空間36內時,卡持件24的操作部248可被操作以使手持部224脫離卡持件24的卡勾部244,使得手把22可旋離承載架12以使第二突出部228抵推第二側架34之一結構側邊344使得承載架12以滑出方向D2滑動;其中,手把22產生槓桿作用,以第二突出部228與結構側邊344的接觸點為支點,使用者對手持部224施力,手把22以樞接部222以滑出方向D2拉動承載架12(於實作上,包含使硬碟4的連接器42與控制電路板38的連接器382分離)。In addition, please also refer to FIG. 9, wherein the first side frame 32 and the second side frame 34 are shown along the line X-X section in FIG. 7. In this embodiment, the handlebar 22 includes a second protruding portion 228, which is connected to the pivoting portion 222 relative to the handheld portion 224. When the carrier 12 is contained in the storage space 36, the operation portion 248 of the holder 24 can be operated to release the hand-held portion 224 from the hook portion 244 of the holder 24, so that the handle 22 can be rotated away from the carrier 12 The second protruding portion 228 pushes against one of the structural side edges 344 of the second side frame 34 so that the carrier frame 12 slides in the slide-out direction D2. The handle 22 generates a lever effect, and the second protruding portion 228 and the structural side edge The contact point of 344 is the fulcrum. The user applies force to the handheld portion 224, and the handlebar 22 pulls the carrier 12 with the pivoting portion 222 in the sliding direction D2 (in practice, it includes the connector 42 and the control of the hard disk 4).

如前說明,於本實施例顯示之伸縮式硬碟托架1中,承載架12透過第一側滑機構14及第二側滑機構16能相對於機箱3滑動,使用者原則上僅需將硬碟4放入承載架12的容置空間128內,以滑入方向D1將承載架12朝向機箱3的收納空間36滑動,並操作手把22以使承載架12能完全進入收納空間36中且使硬碟4的連接器42與控制電路板38的連接器銜接。其中,若硬碟4未以正確的方向放置於承載架12的容置空間128內,則透過彈臂20的防呆功能,承載架12將無法完全進入收納空間36,可避免硬碟4的連接器42或控制電路板38的連接器因非預期的碰撞而損傷。當需取出承載架12上的硬碟4時,使用者可使卡持件24與手把22分離,並操作手把22以使承載架12以滑出方向D2自收納空間36滑出。接著,使用者可直接自承載架12上取出硬碟4,無需額外的工具來自承載架12上卸除硬碟4。之後,使用者可以另一硬碟放入承載架12的容置空間128內,以實現硬碟替換作業。因此,原來的硬碟4及之後更替的硬碟均無需配置個別的硬碟框或硬碟盒,此可抑制先前技術中配件成本增加的問題。此外,於本實施例顯示之伸縮式硬碟托架1中,無論是將承載架12滑入或滑出收納空間36,手把22均能產生槓桿作用,提供使用者省力的操作。 以上所述僅為本發明之較佳實施例,凡依本發明申請專利範圍所做之均等變化與修飾,皆應屬本發明之涵蓋範圍。As explained previously, in the retractable hard disk tray 1 shown in this embodiment, the carrier 12 can slide relative to the chassis 3 through the first side sliding mechanism 14 and the second side sliding mechanism 16. In principle, the user only needs to set The hard disk 4 is placed in the accommodating space 128 of the carrier 12, and the carrier 12 is slid toward the storage space 36 of the chassis 3 in the sliding direction D1, and the handle 22 is operated so that the carrier 12 can fully enter the storage space 36. The connector 42 of the hard disk 4 is connected to the connector of the control circuit board 38. If the hard disk 4 is not placed in the accommodating space 128 of the carrier 12 in the correct direction, then through the foolproof function of the spring arm 20, the carrier 12 cannot fully enter the storage space 36, which can avoid the hard disk 4 The connector 42 or the connector of the control circuit board 38 is damaged by an unexpected impact. When the hard disk 4 on the carrier 12 needs to be removed, the user can separate the holding member 24 from the handle 22 and operate the handle 22 to slide the carrier 12 out of the storage space 36 in the sliding out direction D2. Then, the user can directly remove the hard disk 4 from the carrier 12 without removing the hard disk 4 from the carrier 12 without additional tools. After that, the user can put another hard disk in the accommodating space 128 of the carrier 12 to realize the hard disk replacement operation. Therefore, the original hard disk 4 and subsequent hard disks do not need to be equipped with a separate hard disk frame or hard disk box, which can suppress the problem of increasing the cost of accessories in the prior art. In addition, in the telescopic hard disk tray 1 shown in this embodiment, no matter whether the carrier 12 is slid into or out of the storage space 36, the handlebar 22 can generate a leverage, providing users with labor-saving operations. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and all equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of patent application of the present invention shall fall within the scope of the present invention.
