Description

承載裝置以及擴充卡 Carrying device and expansion card

本揭露大致關於一種高容量電子組件的承載裝置,用於可被插入伺服器滑動件中的模組化槽的擴充卡。更特定地,本揭露的特點有關於一種具有高導熱效率、不需要工具的承載裝置,用以插入擴充卡。 The present disclosure generally relates to a high-capacity electronic component carrying device for an expansion card that can be inserted into a modular slot in a server slider. More specifically, the feature of the present disclosure relates to a carrying device with high heat conduction efficiency and no tools required for inserting expansion cards.

例如伺服器的電子裝置,包括由一般的供電器驅動的眾多電子組件。大致上,伺服器係針對特定功能,例如儲存大量的資料或處理。伺服器的設計從機箱開始,機箱包括驅動組件和一般控制器,例如基板管理控制器。目前的大型伺服器設計包括槽,用於具有處理器、記憶體、驅動器以及網路介面的伺服器滑動件。這樣的滑動件又包括擴充槽,擴充槽接收擴充裝置卡,擴充裝置卡可被插入以執行額外的伺服器功能,例如儲存或處理。例如,儲存伺服器滑動件可包括槽,用以容納額外的固態硬碟(solid state drive,SSD)裝置卡,而處理伺服器可包括槽,用於具有處理單元的更多裝置卡。 For example, an electronic device such as a server includes numerous electronic components driven by a general power supply. Generally speaking, servers are geared towards specific functions, such as storing large amounts of data or processing. The design of the server starts from the chassis, which includes drive components and general controllers, such as baseboard management controllers. Current large server designs include slots for server sliders with processors, memory, drives, and network interfaces. Such a sliding member further includes an expansion slot, which receives an expansion device card, and the expansion device card can be inserted to perform additional server functions, such as storage or processing. For example, the storage server slider may include slots for accommodating additional solid state drive (SSD) device cards, and the processing server may include slots for more device cards with processing units.

由於內部電子裝置的運作,例如控制器、處理器以及記憶體,以及在這樣的裝置卡上的組件,使伺服器產生大量的熱。因此,伺服器被設計以依賴通過裝置的內部的氣流,以帶走從電子組件產生的熱。當組件的大小增加,例如記憶體裝置,使產生的熱也增加。電子組件用的擴充卡承載裝置通常具有散熱器,以將熱從電子組件散出。散熱器一般係由導熱性材料組成。散熱器從電子組件吸收熱,因此從組件將熱傳導出。隨著裝置卡的每一代變得更強大,從而產生更多的熱,除熱的挑戰也隨之增加。Due to the operation of internal electronic devices, such as controllers, processors, and memory, as well as components on such device cards, the server generates a lot of heat. Therefore, the server is designed to rely on the airflow through the inside of the device to take away the heat generated from the electronic components. When the size of components increases, such as memory devices, the heat generated also increases. Expansion card carrying devices for electronic components usually have a heat sink to dissipate heat from the electronic components. The radiator is generally composed of thermally conductive materials. The heat sink absorbs heat from the electronic components, and therefore conducts heat away from the components. As each generation of device cards becomes more powerful, thereby generating more heat, the challenge of removing heat also increases.

如前所述,儲存伺服器滑動件可包括固態硬碟型的擴充卡(solid state drive based expansion cards),以增加儲存能力。固態硬碟卡的目前一代係基於遵循M.2規格標準的記憶體芯片用的承載裝置,例如M.2 22110。因此,承載裝置被特定地設計,以保持基於M.2規格所設計的組件。例如,M.2 22110機械規格具有頂側組件區域,大約為22毫米乘110毫米、具有金手指型連接器在一端。承載裝置被插入擴充卡。這種擴充卡經常被裝設在豎支架上,豎支架又平行於伺服器滑動件的主機板而被裝設。在這種方式之下,可以將多個擴充卡以節省空間的方式裝設在伺服器滑動件上。As mentioned above, the storage server slider may include solid state drive based expansion cards to increase storage capacity. The current generation of SSD cards is based on a carrier device for memory chips that conforms to the M.2 specification, such as M.2 22110. Therefore, the carrying device is specifically designed to maintain the components designed based on the M.2 specification. For example, the M.2 22110 mechanical specification has a top-side component area, which is approximately 22 mm by 110 mm, and has a golden finger connector at one end. The carrier device is inserted into the expansion card. This kind of expansion card is often installed on a vertical bracket, which is installed parallel to the main board of the server slider. In this way, multiple expansion cards can be installed on the server slider in a space-saving manner.

下一代的儲存卡大致上傾向於較大的M.2承載裝置尺寸,以容納固態硬碟裝置中更大的儲存能力。目前,在M.2裝置上具有更高的容量,用以擴充儲存能力,例如1TB、2TB、4TB、8TB或16TB,需要從6.8 瓦特到18瓦特的更高散熱設計功率。由於期望增加儲存的容量,目前的承載裝置可能無法容納未來的固態硬碟裝置,因為由目前設計的承載裝置散熱器無法解決散熱問題。The next generation of memory cards generally tends to be larger M.2 carrier device size to accommodate the larger storage capacity of the solid state drive device. Currently, M.2 devices have higher capacity to expand storage capacity, such as 1TB, 2TB, 4TB, 8TB or 16TB, which requires a higher heat dissipation design power from 6.8 watts to 18 watts. Due to the desire to increase the storage capacity, the current carrying device may not be able to accommodate future solid state hard disk devices, because the current designed carrying device heat sink cannot solve the heat dissipation problem.

因此,需要一種容納例如固態硬碟的高熱輸出組件的承載裝置。還需要一種不需要工具的機構,以組裝和固定承載裝置的電子組件。還需要一種對於擴充卡從較高存儲量和熱功率固態硬碟組件具有更有效散熱的承載裝置,例如快速周邊組件互連(PCIe)擴充卡。Therefore, there is a need for a carrying device for accommodating high heat output components such as solid state disks. There is also a need for a mechanism that does not require tools to assemble and fix the electronic components of the carrier device. There is also a need for a carrier device that can efficiently dissipate heat from a higher storage capacity and thermal power solid state drive assembly for an expansion card, such as a PCIe expansion card.

The M.2 carrier device described here can be installed in an expansion card that accommodates four carrier devices.

第1A圖係示例承載裝置100的組件的爆炸圖,示例承載裝置100符合M.2 22110規格標準。因此,承載裝置容納具有22毫米乘110毫米覆蓋區域(footprint)的M.2型組件卡。第1B圖係已組裝的示例承載裝置100的頂部立體圖。第1C圖係已組裝的示例承載裝置100的底部立體圖。第2A圖係已組裝的承載裝置100的視圖,顯示側扣件旋轉到開啟位置,以允許第1圖中的組件的組裝。Fig. 1A is an exploded view of the components of the example carrying device 100, and the example carrying device 100 complies with the M.2 22110 specification standard. Therefore, the carrier device accommodates an M.2 type component card with a footprint of 22 mm by 110 mm. Figure 1B is a top perspective view of the assembled example carrying device 100. Figure 1C is a bottom perspective view of the assembled example carrying device 100. Figure 2A is a view of the assembled carrier device 100, showing the side fasteners rotated to the open position to allow assembly of the components in Figure 1.

如第1A圖所示,承載裝置100包括底散熱器110、底導熱墊112、電路板114、頂散熱器116以及頂導熱墊118。在此示例中,電路板114符合M.2 22110承載裝置用的大小。在此示例中的電路板114包括電子組件,例如非揮發性記憶體固態硬碟(non-volatile memory solid state drive, NVME SSD)。其他卡的種類,例如,Samsung PM983型固態硬碟或Intel P45113D NAND 硬碟,也可使用承載裝置100。當承載裝置100被組裝時,電路板114被設置在底散熱器110和頂散熱器116之間。在此示例中,底散熱器110和頂散熱器116皆係由高K因數的鋁合金所製成,但其他合適的導熱材料也可被使用。As shown in FIG. 1A, the carrier device 100 includes a bottom heat sink 110, a bottom thermal pad 112, a circuit board 114, a top heat sink 116, and a top thermal pad 118. In this example, the circuit board 114 fits the size of the M.2 22110 carrying device. The circuit board 114 in this example includes electronic components, such as a non-volatile memory solid state drive (NVME SSD). Other types of cards, such as Samsung PM983 solid state hard disk or Intel P45113D NAND hard disk, can also use the carrier device 100. When the carrier device 100 is assembled, the circuit board 114 is disposed between the bottom heat sink 110 and the top heat sink 116. In this example, both the bottom heat sink 110 and the top heat sink 116 are made of aluminum alloy with a high K factor, but other suitable thermally conductive materials can also be used.

如第1B圖到第1C圖所示,三個側扣件120、122以及124,與頂散熱器116、頂導熱墊118(第1A圖)、底散熱器110、電路板114以及底導熱墊112彼此附接,以形成已組裝的承載裝置100。扣件120、扣件122以及扣件124的每一個具有大致的「U」形狀,且提供壓縮力到頂散熱器116和底散熱器110。如將要解釋的,側扣件120、122以及124可旋轉遠離底散熱器110,以允許承載裝置100的其他組件被移除。當側扣件120、122以及124旋轉到關閉位置,側扣件120、122以及124與頂散熱器116、頂導熱墊118、底散熱器110、電路板114以及底導熱墊112接合(join)。電路板114靜置在底導熱墊112上,且藉由側扣件120、122以及124和底散熱器110而相似地被定位,且被限制向橫向的移動。電路板114可包括電子組件,例如固態記憶晶片和支撐電路。邊緣連接器130從電路板114的一端延伸。邊緣連接器130可包括金手指型連接器。相反的邊緣132(第1A圖)包括由導電材料做為界線(bordered)的半圓形缺口134,以作為機械上的接地墊。As shown in Figures 1B to 1C, the three side fasteners 120, 122, and 124 are connected to the top heat sink 116, the top thermal pad 118 (Figure 1A), the bottom heat sink 110, the circuit board 114, and the bottom thermal pad 112 are attached to each other to form an assembled carrier device 100. Each of the fastener 120, the fastener 122, and the fastener 124 has a general “U” shape and provides compressive force to the top heat sink 116 and the bottom heat sink 110. As will be explained, the side fasteners 120, 122, and 124 can be rotated away from the bottom heat sink 110 to allow other components of the carrying device 100 to be removed. When the side fasteners 120, 122, and 124 rotate to the closed position, the side fasteners 120, 122, and 124 are joined with the top heat sink 116, the top thermal pad 118, the bottom heat sink 110, the circuit board 114, and the bottom thermal pad 112. . The circuit board 114 rests on the bottom thermal pad 112 and is similarly positioned by the side fasteners 120, 122, and 124 and the bottom heat sink 110, and is restricted from moving laterally. The circuit board 114 may include electronic components, such as solid-state memory chips and supporting circuits. The edge connector 130 extends from one end of the circuit board 114. The edge connector 130 may include a gold finger type connector. The opposite edge 132 (Figure 1A) includes a semi-circular notch 134 bordered by a conductive material to serve as a mechanical ground pad.

頂散熱器116包括底部表面,底部表面與頂導熱墊118接觸的被放置,以傳導由電路板114的電子組件所產生的熱。頂散熱器116具有外表面140,外表面140包括從外表面140延伸的鰭片142的樣式(pattern)。鰭片142藉由增加外表面140的表面積來幫助散熱,而允許更多的散熱。除了三個平坦邊緣區域144、146以及148之外,鰭片142大致上被製造於整個外表面140。每一個平坦邊緣區域144、146以及148具有與分別的扣件120、122以及124搭接的形狀。外表面140具有相反邊緣端150和152。半圓形缺口154形成在邊緣端150之一。頂散熱器116包括重合部件(registration feature),當頂散熱器116附接到底散熱器110時,以允許對準。在此示例中,頂散熱器116包括兩個母重合部件156(接近邊緣末端150的兩側各一個)以及兩個公重合部件158(接近邊緣末端152的兩側各一個)。The top heat sink 116 includes a bottom surface, and the bottom surface is placed in contact with the top thermal pad 118 to conduct heat generated by the electronic components of the circuit board 114. The top heat sink 116 has an outer surface 140 that includes a pattern of fins 142 extending from the outer surface 140. The fins 142 help heat dissipation by increasing the surface area of the outer surface 140, allowing more heat dissipation. Except for the three flat edge regions 144, 146, and 148, the fin 142 is manufactured substantially on the entire outer surface 140. Each of the flat edge regions 144, 146, and 148 has a shape that overlaps the respective fasteners 120, 122, and 124. The outer surface 140 has opposite edge ends 150 and 152. The semicircular notch 154 is formed at one of the edge ends 150. The top radiator 116 includes a registration feature that allows alignment when the top radiator 116 is attached to the bottom radiator 110. In this example, the top heat sink 116 includes two female coincident parts 156 (one on each side near the edge end 150) and two male coincident parts 158 (one on each side near the edge end 152).

如第1A圖、第1C圖以及第2A圖所示,底散熱器110包括大致上係平坦的底部表面160。三個凹部162、164以及166形成在底部表面160的邊緣上。底散熱器110包括中間側邊緣170以及彼此偏置的兩個相反側邊緣172以及174。扣件120和124位在界定凹部162和166的一端的中間側邊緣170的兩側。扣件122位在界定凹部164的另一側上的側邊緣172和174之間。As shown in FIG. 1A, FIG. 1C, and FIG. 2A, the bottom heat sink 110 includes a bottom surface 160 that is substantially flat. Three recesses 162, 164, and 166 are formed on the edge of the bottom surface 160. The bottom heat sink 110 includes a middle side edge 170 and two opposite side edges 172 and 174 that are offset from each other. The fasteners 120 and 124 are located on both sides of the middle side edge 170 defining one end of the recesses 162 and 166. The fastener 122 is located between the side edges 172 and 174 on the other side defining the recess 164.

底散熱器110的相反的頂部表面180(第1A圖)包括兩個側壁182和184(第1A圖),側壁182和184在靠近頂部表面180的邊緣配置平行於彼此。兩個側壁182和184允許底導熱墊112和電路板114(第1B圖)的對準。側壁182和側壁184限制電路板和底導熱墊112的在橫向的運動。在此示例中,側壁182和側壁184包括兩個公重合部件186(第1A圖)和兩個母重合部件188(第1A圖)。當底散熱器110附接到頂散熱器116時,公重合部件186與頂散熱器116的母重合部件156(第1A圖)搭接(mated with),而母重合部件188與頂散熱器116的公重合部件158(第1A圖)搭接。The opposite top surface 180 (FIG. 1A) of the bottom heat sink 110 includes two side walls 182 and 184 (FIG. 1A), and the side walls 182 and 184 are arranged parallel to each other at the edges close to the top surface 180. The two side walls 182 and 184 allow alignment of the bottom thermal pad 112 and the circuit board 114 (Figure 1B). The side wall 182 and the side wall 184 limit the lateral movement of the circuit board and the bottom thermal pad 112. In this example, the side wall 182 and the side wall 184 include two male coincident parts 186 (Figure 1A) and two female coincident parts 188 (Figure 1A). When the bottom radiator 110 is attached to the top radiator 116, the male coincident part 186 and the female coincident part 156 (Figure 1A) of the top radiator 116 are mated with (mated with), and the female coincident part 188 and the top radiator 116 are mated with The male and coincident parts 158 (Figure 1A) overlap.

在此示例的扣件120、122以及124係由不銹鋼所製成,但任何具有足夠的拉伸強度的可撓性材料可被使用。第2B圖係在第1B圖到第1C圖中側扣件122關於底散熱器110的底部立體圖。扣件122相同於扣件120和扣件124。為了說明性目的,扣件122的元件被顯示在第2B圖,但應當理解以下的描述有關於相同的扣件120和124。扣件122包括頂面板210,頂面板210具有相同於平坦邊緣區域146的形狀,平坦邊緣區域146形成在第2A圖中的頂散熱器116的外表面140上。底面板214藉由接合件212接合到頂面板210,以形成「U」形狀。底面板214的形狀係符合在底散熱器110上的凹部164的形狀。底面板214的寬度裝配在邊緣172(第2A圖)和邊緣174之間。底面板214包括具有孔222的延伸片220。孔222與銷224搭接,銷224形成在底散熱器110的底部表面160的凹部164。延伸片220的孔222被插入銷224,銷224作為鉸鏈。因此,扣件122可在第2A圖所顯示的開啟位置和第1B圖到第1C圖所顯示的關閉位置之間旋轉。在關閉位置,頂面板210接觸頂散熱器116,而底面板214接觸底散熱器110。側扣件122因此將頂散熱器116接合到底散熱器110。側扣件122在關閉位置提供壓縮力到散熱器110和116。頂面板210包括外邊緣232,外邊緣232形成允許使用者操控扣件122的半圓柱構件234。在此示例中具有三個側扣件,但其他扣件的數量可被使用。例如,在每一側上一個扣件可被使用,或在每一側上兩個扣件可被使用。三個扣件的配置提供頂散熱器116和底散熱器110上一致的力,以卡合電路板114上的組件,且因此促進導熱率。The fasteners 120, 122, and 124 in this example are made of stainless steel, but any flexible material with sufficient tensile strength can be used. FIG. 2B is a bottom perspective view of the side fastener 122 with respect to the bottom heat sink 110 in FIGS. 1B to 1C. The fastener 122 is the same as the fastener 120 and the fastener 124. For illustrative purposes, the elements of the fastener 122 are shown in Figure 2B, but it should be understood that the following description refers to the same fasteners 120 and 124. The fastener 122 includes a top panel 210 having the same shape as the flat edge area 146 formed on the outer surface 140 of the top heat sink 116 in FIG. 2A. The bottom panel 214 is joined to the top panel 210 by the joining member 212 to form a "U" shape. The shape of the bottom panel 214 conforms to the shape of the recess 164 on the bottom heat sink 110. The width of the bottom panel 214 fits between the edge 172 (Figure 2A) and the edge 174. The bottom panel 214 includes an extension piece 220 having a hole 222. The hole 222 overlaps the pin 224, and the pin 224 is formed in the recess 164 of the bottom surface 160 of the bottom heat sink 110. A pin 224 is inserted into the hole 222 of the extension piece 220, and the pin 224 serves as a hinge. Therefore, the fastener 122 can be rotated between the open position shown in Fig. 2A and the closed position shown in Figs. 1B to 1C. In the closed position, the top panel 210 contacts the top heat sink 116 and the bottom panel 214 contacts the bottom heat sink 110. The side fastener 122 thus joins the top heat sink 116 to the bottom heat sink 110. The side fastener 122 provides compressive force to the radiators 110 and 116 in the closed position. The top panel 210 includes an outer edge 232 that forms a semi-cylindrical member 234 that allows a user to manipulate the fastener 122. There are three side fasteners in this example, but other numbers of fasteners can be used. For example, one fastener on each side can be used, or two fasteners on each side can be used. The configuration of the three fasteners provides consistent force on the top heat sink 116 and the bottom heat sink 110 to engage the components on the circuit board 114 and thus promote thermal conductivity.

第3A圖係第1A圖中的M.2型承載裝置100安裝到擴充卡300的立體圖。在此示例中的擴充卡300可容納最多四個M.2 22110承載裝置,例如承載裝置100。M.2 22110承載裝置保持電子組件,例如固態硬碟(SSDs)。在此示例中,擴充卡300係OCP AVA-4 M.2承載裝置卡,OCP AVA-4 M.2承載裝置卡係快速周邊組件互連全高半長(Full Height Half Length, FHHL)規格的卡、可從廣達電腦(Quanta Computer Inc.)取得。擴充卡300包括支撐電路板310,對於四個M.2承載裝置的每一個,支撐電路板310具有一組連接器插座312。FIG. 3A is a perspective view of the M.2 type carrying device 100 in FIG. 1A mounted to the expansion card 300. As shown in FIG. The expansion card 300 in this example can accommodate up to four M.2 22110 carrier devices, such as the carrier device 100. The M.2 22110 carrier device holds electronic components, such as solid state drives (SSDs). In this example, the expansion card 300 is an OCP AVA-4 M.2 carrier device card, and the OCP AVA-4 M.2 carrier device card is a Fast Peripheral Component Interconnect Full Height Half Length (FHHL) specification card , Available from Quanta Computer Inc.. The expansion card 300 includes a supporting circuit board 310, and for each of the four M.2 carrying devices, the supporting circuit board 310 has a set of connector sockets 312.

支撐電路板310具有邊緣連接器314,邊緣連接器314允許擴充卡300附接到豎板上的連接器。邊緣連接器314可具有金手指連接器。擴充卡300包括兩個側壁320和322。前壁324接合側壁320和側壁322。前壁324包括格子板326,格子板326允許氣流流經承載裝置。前壁324保持延伸片328,延伸片328可被用來在計算裝置中定位擴充卡300。閂鎖機構330藉由側壁320被支撐,以允許擴充卡300附接到豎板。支撐電路板310包括四個閂鎖構件340、342、344以及346,每一閂鎖構件340、342、344以及346位於連接器插座312之一的相對之處。The support circuit board 310 has an edge connector 314 that allows the expansion card 300 to be attached to the connector on the riser. The edge connector 314 may have a gold finger connector. The expansion card 300 includes two side walls 320 and 322. The front wall 324 joins the side wall 320 and the side wall 322. The front wall 324 includes a grid plate 326 that allows airflow to flow through the carrying device. The front wall 324 holds an extension piece 328 that can be used to locate the expansion card 300 in the computing device. The latch mechanism 330 is supported by the side wall 320 to allow the expansion card 300 to be attached to the riser. The supporting circuit board 310 includes four latch members 340, 342, 344, and 346, and each latch member 340, 342, 344, and 346 is located opposite one of the connector sockets 312.

第3B圖係由支撐電路板310支撐的閂鎖構件340的放大立體圖。相同的元件被以相同的符號標記,如其在第3A圖中的對應件。閂鎖構件340包括為承載裝置100的高度的支撐350。支撐350的一端附接到支撐電路板310。支撐350的另一端保持可滑動的金屬閂鎖352。金屬閂鎖352具有從承載裝置100縮回的開啟位置,以及朝向承載裝置100的關閉位置。在此示例中的金屬閂鎖352藉由在支撐350中的彈簧而被彈簧偏置到關閉位置。金屬閂鎖352的一端具有半圓形端片354。FIG. 3B is an enlarged perspective view of the latch member 340 supported by the supporting circuit board 310. The same elements are marked with the same symbols as their counterparts in Figure 3A. The latch member 340 includes a support 350 that is the height of the carrying device 100. One end of the support 350 is attached to the support circuit board 310. The other end of the support 350 holds a slidable metal latch 352. The metal latch 352 has an open position retracted from the carrier device 100 and a closed position toward the carrier device 100. The metal latch 352 in this example is spring-biased to the closed position by the spring in the support 350. The metal latch 352 has a semicircular end piece 354 at one end.

承載裝置100的邊緣連接器130附接到在第3A圖中的支撐電路板310的一端上的連接器插座312之一。承載裝置100的另一端包括在頂散熱器116中的半圓型缺口154。缺口154容納金屬閂鎖352的端片354的形狀。閂鎖352被拉出以壓縮內部的彈簧。當閂鎖352被拉出到開啟位置,承載裝置100可被插入在連接器插座312(第3A圖中)和支撐350之間。一旦承載裝置100被插入,閂鎖352藉由彈簧被迫使向前,使端片354搭接缺口154。在關閉位置,閂鎖352的端片354的底部與電路板114中圍繞半圓型缺口134(第1A圖中)的導電材料接觸,以使電路板114接地。因此,機械上的接地係藉由在端片354和電路板114上的導電材料之間的接觸所提供。閂鎖352透過端片354對缺口154的接觸將承載裝置100保持在定位。The edge connector 130 of the carrier device 100 is attached to one of the connector sockets 312 on one end of the supporting circuit board 310 in Figure 3A. The other end of the carrying device 100 includes a semicircular notch 154 in the top radiator 116. The notch 154 accommodates the shape of the end piece 354 of the metal latch 352. The latch 352 is pulled out to compress the spring inside. When the latch 352 is pulled out to the open position, the carrier device 100 can be inserted between the connector socket 312 (Figure 3A) and the support 350. Once the carrier device 100 is inserted, the latch 352 is forced forward by the spring, so that the end piece 354 overlaps the notch 154. In the closed position, the bottom of the end piece 354 of the latch 352 is in contact with the conductive material surrounding the semicircular notch 134 (Figure 1A) in the circuit board 114 to ground the circuit board 114. Therefore, the mechanical grounding is provided by the contact between the terminal piece 354 and the conductive material on the circuit board 114. The latch 352 keeps the carrier device 100 in position through the contact of the end piece 354 to the notch 154.

第4A圖係示例機箱滑動件400的立體圖,用於計算系統,例如伺服器。第4B圖顯示具有豎板和擴充卡的示例機箱滑動件400,擴充卡相似於第3A圖中的擴充卡300。可理解的是例如滑動件400的多個滑動件可被插入機箱中。滑動件400包括擴充槽,擴充槽保持直立的豎板,以定位擴充卡,例如第3A圖中的擴充卡300。Figure 4A is a perspective view of an example case slider 400 for use in a computing system, such as a server. Figure 4B shows an example chassis slider 400 with risers and expansion cards. The expansion card is similar to the expansion card 300 in Figure 3A. It is understood that a plurality of sliding members such as the sliding member 400 may be inserted into the case. The sliding member 400 includes an expansion slot, and the expansion slot holds an upright riser for positioning an expansion card, such as the expansion card 300 in FIG. 3A.

在此示例中,滑動件400包括主機板410,主機板410將兩個處理器裝設在散熱器412和散熱器414下。雙線記憶體模組(DIMM) 卡416的一系列被裝設在處理器的側邊。在此示例中,機箱包括四個快速周邊組件互連槽420、422、424以及426。前架430包括位在前架430的之側上的主機板410上的快速周邊組件互連槽420和422。後架432包括位在後架432之側上的主機板410上的快速周邊組件互連槽424和426。In this example, the slider 400 includes a motherboard 410, and the motherboard 410 installs two processors under the heat sink 412 and the heat sink 414. A series of dual-line memory module (DIMM) cards 416 are installed on the side of the processor. In this example, the chassis includes four rapid peripheral component interconnection slots 420, 422, 424, and 426. The front frame 430 includes rapid peripheral component interconnection grooves 420 and 422 on the main board 410 on the side of the front frame 430. The rear frame 432 includes rapid peripheral component interconnection grooves 424 and 426 on the main board 410 on the side of the rear frame 432.

在此示例中,豎板440被插入快速周邊組件互連槽420。豎板440具有插入槽420的邊緣連接器。豎板440包括卡連接器,卡連接器靠近豎板440的頂部,以保持擴充卡,例如第3A圖中的擴充卡300。相似地,豎板442被插入快速周邊組件互連槽422。豎板442具有插入槽422的邊緣連接器。豎板442包括卡連接器,卡連接器靠近豎板442的中間,以維持擴充卡。因此,在前架430中的兩個擴充卡堆疊在彼此上,且因此可為延伸橫越滑動件400的寬度的全長卡。In this example, the riser 440 is inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 420. The riser 440 has an edge connector inserted into the slot 420. The riser 440 includes a card connector that is close to the top of the riser 440 to hold an expansion card, such as the expansion card 300 in Figure 3A. Similarly, the riser 442 is inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 422. The riser 442 has an edge connector inserted into the slot 422. The riser 442 includes a card connector, and the card connector is close to the middle of the riser 442 to maintain the expansion card. Therefore, the two expansion cards in the front frame 430 are stacked on each other, and thus can be full-length cards that extend across the width of the slider 400.

相似地,豎板444被插入快速周邊組件互連槽424。豎板444具有插入快速周邊組件互連槽424的邊緣連接器。豎板444包括靠近豎板444的頂部的卡連接器,以保持擴充卡,例如第3A圖中的擴充卡300。相似地,豎板446被插入快速周邊組件互連槽426。豎板446具有插入槽426的邊緣連接器。豎板446包括靠近豎板446的中間的卡連接器,以保持擴充卡。因此,在後架432中的兩個擴充卡堆疊在彼此上,且因此可為延伸橫越滑動件400的寬度的全長卡。Similarly, the riser 444 is inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 424. The riser 444 has an edge connector inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 424. The riser 444 includes a card connector near the top of the riser 444 to hold an expansion card, such as the expansion card 300 in Figure 3A. Similarly, the riser 446 is inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 426. The riser 446 has an edge connector inserted into the slot 426. The riser 446 includes a card connector near the middle of the riser 446 to hold the expansion card. Therefore, the two expansion cards in the rear frame 432 are stacked on each other, and thus can be full-length cards that extend across the width of the slider 400.

第4B圖顯示具有四個擴充卡450、452、454以及456的滑動件400,四個擴充卡450、452、454以及456附接到在前架430中的不同的豎板440和442,以及在後架432中的豎板444和446。放大圖中所顯示的示例擴充卡450相同於第3A圖中的擴充卡300,且保持四個M.2儲存承載裝置,例如第1A圖的承載裝置100。在此示例中,四個擴充卡450、452、454以及456全部包括四個固態硬碟儲存承載裝置,例如第1A圖的承載裝置100。Figure 4B shows a slider 400 with four expansion cards 450, 452, 454, and 456. The four expansion cards 450, 452, 454, and 456 are attached to different risers 440 and 442 in the front frame 430, and The risers 444 and 446 in the rear frame 432. The exemplary expansion card 450 shown in the enlarged view is the same as the expansion card 300 in FIG. 3A, and holds four M.2 storage and carrying devices, such as the carrying device 100 in FIG. 1A. In this example, the four expansion cards 450, 452, 454, and 456 all include four solid-state disk storage and carrying devices, such as the carrying device 100 in FIG. 1A.

第5A圖顯示在伺服器滑動件400的後架432中安裝兩個擴充卡454和456用的過程。第一視圖500顯示具有快速周邊組件互連槽424和426的後架432。支架466附接到豎板446。擴充卡456被插入豎板446的插座。擴充卡456係由支架466和豎板446支撐。然後如第二視圖510所顯示的組合的豎板446、支架466以及擴充卡456,可被插入後架432。更特定地,這允許豎板446的邊緣連接器插入快速周邊組件互連槽426。如第二視圖510所顯示,豎板446和支架466將擴充卡456定位於約為滑動件400的高度的一半的位準(level)。在此示例中,例如指旋螺絲512的附接裝置可被採用,以將支架466固定到滑動件400。Figure 5A shows the process of installing two expansion cards 454 and 456 in the rear frame 432 of the server slider 400. The first view 500 shows the rear frame 432 with rapid peripheral component interconnection grooves 424 and 426. The bracket 466 is attached to the riser 446. The expansion card 456 is inserted into the socket of the riser 446. The expansion card 456 is supported by the bracket 466 and the riser 446. Then, the combined riser 446, bracket 466, and expansion card 456 as shown in the second view 510 can be inserted into the rear frame 432. More specifically, this allows the edge connector of the riser 446 to be inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnect slot 426. As shown in the second view 510, the riser 446 and the bracket 466 position the expansion card 456 at a level that is approximately half the height of the slider 400. In this example, an attachment device such as a thumb screw 512 may be adopted to fix the bracket 466 to the slider 400.

第三視圖520顯示連接到豎板444的另一支架464的附接。豎板444的邊緣連接器被插入快速周邊組件互連槽424。豎板444在滑動件400的頂部支撐擴充卡454。例如指旋螺絲522的附接裝置被採用,以將支架464固定到滑動件400。在此示例中,每一支架464和466具有橫跨(spans)後架432的寬度的水平的面板。支架464和466皆具有直立的側邊緣,可藉由分別的指旋螺絲512和522附接到後架432的側邊上的重合部件。The third view 520 shows the attachment of another bracket 464 connected to the riser 444. The edge connector of the riser 444 is inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 424. The riser 444 supports the expansion card 454 on the top of the sliding member 400. An attachment device such as a thumb screw 522 is adopted to fix the bracket 464 to the slider 400. In this example, each bracket 464 and 466 has a horizontal panel that spans the width of the rear frame 432. Both brackets 464 and 466 have upright side edges, which can be attached to overlapping parts on the side of the rear frame 432 by means of thumb screws 512 and 522, respectively.

第5B圖顯示第4A圖中的滑動件400的前架430中的安裝擴充卡452的過程。第一視圖530顯示具有快速周邊組件互連槽420和422的前架430。支架462附接到豎板442。擴充卡452插入豎板442的插座。擴充卡452係由支架462和豎板442支撐。然後如第二視圖540所顯示的組合的豎板442、支架462以及擴充卡452,可被插入前架430。更特定地,這允許豎板442的邊緣連接器插入快速周邊組件互連槽422。如第二視圖540所顯示,豎板442和支架462將擴充卡452定位於約為滑動件400的高度的一半的位準(level)。如內插視圖542所顯示,支架462陷入(slotted into)滑動件400的側邊上的重合部件。然後柱塞(plunger)機構被推動,以將支架462鎖定到滑動件400的側邊,柱塞機構因此將支架462固定到滑動件400的側邊。FIG. 5B shows the process of installing the expansion card 452 in the front frame 430 of the slider 400 in FIG. 4A. The first view 530 shows the front frame 430 with the rapid peripheral component interconnection grooves 420 and 422. The bracket 462 is attached to the riser 442. The expansion card 452 is inserted into the socket of the riser 442. The expansion card 452 is supported by the bracket 462 and the riser 442. Then, the combined riser 442, bracket 462, and expansion card 452 as shown in the second view 540 can be inserted into the front frame 430. More specifically, this allows the edge connector of the riser 442 to be inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 422. As shown in the second view 540, the riser 442 and the bracket 462 position the expansion card 452 at a level that is approximately half the height of the slider 400. As shown in the inset view 542, the bracket 462 is slotted into the coincident parts on the side of the slider 400. The plunger mechanism is then pushed to lock the bracket 462 to the side of the slider 400, and the plunger mechanism therefore fixes the bracket 462 to the side of the slider 400.

第三視圖550係滑動件400的前架430的前視圖,顯示在定位的支架462和擴充卡452。在此示例中,例如指旋螺絲552的附接裝置可被採用,以更將支架462固定到滑動件400。The third view 550 is a front view of the front frame 430 of the sliding member 400, showing the bracket 462 and the expansion card 452 in position. In this example, an attachment device such as a thumb screw 552 may be used to further fix the bracket 462 to the slider 400.

第5C圖顯示在如第5B圖所顯示的擴充卡452的安裝後,滑動件400的前架430中安裝擴充卡450的過程。第一視圖560顯示具有已安裝在前架430中的擴充卡452的前架430。如以上所解釋,支架462附接到擴充卡452和豎板442。這些組件全部被固定到前架430的壁。FIG. 5C shows the process of installing the expansion card 450 in the front frame 430 of the slider 400 after the expansion card 452 is installed as shown in FIG. 5B. The first view 560 shows the front frame 430 with the expansion card 452 installed in the front frame 430. As explained above, the bracket 462 is attached to the expansion card 452 and the riser 442. These components are all fixed to the wall of the front frame 430.

支架460附接到豎板440。擴充卡450插入豎板440的插座。擴充卡450係由支架460和豎板440支撐。然後如第二視圖570所顯示的組合的豎板440、支架460以及擴充卡450,可被插入前架430。更特定地,這允許豎板440的邊緣連接器插入快速周邊組件互連槽420。如第二視圖570所顯示,豎板440和支架460將擴充卡450定位於滑動件400的頂部的位準。如內插視圖572所顯示,支架460陷入(slotted into)滑動件400的側邊上的重合部件。然後柱塞機構被推動,以將支架460鎖定到滑動件400的側邊。藉由支架460和插入的豎板440兩者,附接的擴充卡450因此被固定到滑動件400。The bracket 460 is attached to the riser 440. The expansion card 450 is inserted into the socket of the riser 440. The expansion card 450 is supported by the bracket 460 and the riser 440. Then, the combined riser 440, bracket 460, and expansion card 450 as shown in the second view 570 can be inserted into the front frame 430. More specifically, this allows the edge connector of the riser 440 to be inserted into the rapid peripheral component interconnection slot 420.
