The above description of the content of the present invention and the following description of the implementation are used to demonstrate and explain the principle of the present invention, and provide further explanation of the patent application scope of the present invention.

Embodiments of the present invention are described below through specific examples, and those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific implementation modes, and various modifications or changes can be made to the details in this specification based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be noted that, in the case of no conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

It should be noted that the diagrams provided in the following embodiments are only schematically illustrating the basic ideas of the present invention, and only the components related to the present invention are shown in the diagrams rather than the number, shape and number of components in actual implementation. Dimensional drawing, the type, quantity and proportion of each component can be changed arbitrarily during actual implementation, and the component layout type may also be more complicated.

As shown in Figure 1, it is a traditional drawer-type hard disk rack 1. The hard disk rack 1 is arranged on a countertop 5 and carries a plurality of hard disks 4 inside. The hard disk rack 1 is usually connected to the casing through a slide rail 6 3 to achieve a sliding connection. This traditional hard disk rack 1 needs to be pulled out from the shell 3 by manpower and then pushed into the shell 3 by manpower, and the degree of automation is relatively low. When the hard disk rack carries many hard disks, it is laborious and time-consuming to push and pull the hard disk. Especially for very long hard disk racks, this manual pushing and pulling method greatly consumes the physical strength and time of the staff, which is not conducive to the improvement of work efficiency.

The application provides a hard disk bearing structure, which can automatically control the forward and backward movement of the hard disk rack, reduce the heavy labor of staff, and help improve work efficiency. The hard disk bearing structure of the present application will be introduced in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawings 2 to 4 .

As shown in FIG. 2 , FIG. 2 is an overall schematic view of a hard disk carrying structure of the present application. FIG. 2 shows the external structure of the hard disk carrying structure, including: hard disk rack 1 , control button 2 , shell 3 , and table top 5 . Wherein, the casing 3 is in the shape of "几" and is covered on the table top 5 to form an accommodating space with the table top 5. The hard disk rack 1 is arranged in the accommodating space and is currently in a state of not being pulled out. The control buttons 2 are arranged on the front outer wall of the hard disk rack 1, and specifically include three buttons of "in", "stop" and "out". When the user presses the button "out", the hard disk rack 1 moves outward; during the movement, the user presses the button "stop", and the hard disk rack 1 stops moving; when the user presses the button "in", The hard disk rack 1 just moves inward. Therefore, the staff can easily move the hard disk rack 1 in and out by operating the buttons without manually pushing and pulling the hard disk rack 1 , which greatly reduces the workload.

FIG. 3 is a structural schematic diagram of the hard disk carrying structure shown in FIG. 2 in a stretched state. In the state shown in FIG. 3 , the hard disk rack 1 is in a state of being pulled out of the accommodating space. FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the hard disk carrying structure shown in FIG. 3 along the direction A-A. The following will introduce the hard disk carrying structure of the present application in detail in conjunction with FIGS. 3 to 4 .

As shown in FIG. 4 , the hard disk carrying structure proposed in this application mainly includes the following components: a hard disk rack 1 , a crawler mechanism L, and a motor 12 .

The hard disk rack 1 is used for placing at least one hard disk 4 . Optionally, a plurality of hard disks 4 are neatly arranged in two left and right rows in the hard disk rack 1, and a groove with a certain width is left between the two rows.

The crawler mechanism L specifically includes: a crawler belt 14 , a driving gear 11 , and a driven gear 10 . The crawler belt 14 is fixedly connected with the hard disk rack 1 . Optionally, the crawler mechanism L is entirely located in the groove of the hard disk rack 1 , and the crawler belt 14 is provided with a fixed block 15 . Both ends of the fixing block 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the left and right inner walls of the rear end of the groove. The rotation of the driving gear 11 will drive the rotation of the crawler belt 14, and the driven gear 10 plays the role of supporting the crawler belt 14, and will follow the crawler belt 14 to rotate together. The rotation of the crawler belt 14 drives the movement of the fixed block 15, thereby driving the hard disk rack 1 to move back and forth.

The motor 12 is located at the bottom of the casing 3 and is connected with the driving gear 11 of the crawler mechanism L. By driving the driving gear 11 to rotate, the crawler belt 14 can drive the hard disk rack 1 to move back and forth. Specifically, the driving gear 11 is sheathed on the output shaft of the motor 12 .

In addition, the control button 2 is electrically connected to the motor 12 , that is, the control button 2 is connected to the motor 12 through wires. Optionally, there is a wire slot on the table top 5 to accommodate the connection wires between the control button 2 and the motor 12 . Specifically, the wire slot adopts a crawler type wire slot 13 protruding from the platform 5, and the crawler type wire slot 13 is located under the crawler mechanism L, which not only makes full use of the space but also ensures that these connecting wire harnesses will not be worn out.

Optionally, the left and right inner walls of the housing 3 are slidably connected to the left and right outer walls of the hard disk rack 1 through slide rails 6, so as to ensure the stability of the hard disk rack 1 during forward and backward movement.

The principle of controlling the forward and backward movement and stopping of the hard disk rack 1 by controlling the motor 12 will be introduced in detail below.

In the state shown in FIG. 3 or FIG. 4 , the hard disk rack 1 is completely pulled out. The user presses the button "forward", the motor 12 rotates clockwise, the driving gear 11 also rotates clockwise thereupon, the crawler belt 14 also rotates clockwise thereupon, and the fixed block 15 retreats, thereby driving the hard disk rack 1 to move backward. If the user does not operate other buttons during this process, the hard disk rack 1 will move inward until it reaches the limit, that is, the state shown in FIG. 2 , and the hard disk rack 1 completely enters the accommodating space at this time. If the user presses the button "stop" during the outward movement of the hard disk rack 1, the motor 12 stops rotating, and the hard disk rack 1 also stops moving. If the user presses the button "Out", the motor 12 rotates counterclockwise, the driving gear 11 also rotates counterclockwise, the crawler belt 14 also rotates counterclockwise, and the fixed block 15 advances, thereby driving the hard disk rack 1 to move forward. When moving forward to the limit position, it will get back to the state shown in Fig. 3 or Fig. 4 again.

To sum up, the present invention automatically pushes and pulls the hard disk rack to move back and forth through a structure with automatic telescopic function, which greatly saves manpower consumption, helps to improve work efficiency, effectively overcomes various shortcomings in the prior art, and has high industrial application value .

The above-mentioned embodiments only illustrate the principles and effects of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art can modify or change the above-mentioned embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
