Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a solid state disk.
- Conventionally, a solid state disk is provided with a light-emitting device like LED for reminding or decoration.
- However, in the conventional solid state disk, a scattering structure needs to be provided additionally for making a light emitted from a light-emitting portion even. However, the scattering structure often occupies a lot of space, if the scattering structure is disposed on the substrate, the substrate becomes crowded, and a heat dissipation effect of a memory module on the substrate is influenced; if the scattering structure is not provided, it is hard for the light emitted from the light-emitting portion to create an evenness effect. In addition, the light-emitting device and the memory module are often disposed on a same face of the substrate, so the heat-dissipation effect is influenced.
- The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages.
- The major object of the present invention is to provide a solid state disk which can emit an even and soft light without a scattering structure and can create a comfortable visual effect.
- To achieve the above and other objects, a solid state disk is provided, including: a main body, including a shell portion, a substrate which is disposed on the shell portion and a memory module which is disposed on the substrate, the shell portion having a light-penetrable shell portion, the substrate having a light-penetrable portion and a first face, the substrate integrally formed with the light-penetrable portion, the first face having a first coating layer, the first coating layer having an emergent light-penetrable portion corresponding to the light-penetrable portion, the light-penetrable shell portion corresponding to the emergent light-penetrable portion, the substrate including a transmission port, the memory module electrically connected to the transmission port; a light-emitting portion, disposed on the main body and electrically connected to the transmission port, a light emitted from the light-emitting portion being capable of being projected through the light-penetrable portion and the emergent light-penetrable portion and via the light-penetrable shell portion to an exterior of the solid state disk.
- The present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, which show, for purpose of illustrations only, the preferred embodiment(s) in accordance with the present invention.
-
FIG. 1 is a stereogram of a preferred embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a breakdown view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 3 is a partially-enlarged view of a substrate of the preferred embodiment of the present invention from another perspective; -
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional side view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 5 is a partially-enlarged view ofFIG. 4 ; and -
FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a structural relationship of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. - The present invention will be clearer from the following description when viewed together with the accompanying drawings, which show, for purpose of illustrations only, the preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.
- Please refer to
FIGS. 1 to 6 for a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Asolid state disk 1 includes amain body 2 and a light-emittingportion 6. - The
main body 2 includes ashell portion 3, asubstrate 4 which is disposed on theshell portion 3 and amemory module 5 which is disposed on thesubstrate 4, theshell portion 3 has a light-penetrable shell portion 31, thesubstrate 4 has a light-penetrable portion 40 and afirst face 41, thesubstrate 4 is integrally formed with the light-penetrable portion 40, thefirst face 41 has a first coating layer 42 (preferably not light-penetrable), thefirst coating layer 42 has an emergent light-penetrable portion 43 corresponding to the light-penetrable portion 40, the light-penetrable shell portion 31 corresponds to the emergent light-penetrable portion 43, thesubstrate 4 includes atransmission port 44, and thememory module 5 is electrically connected to thetransmission port 44. Specifically, thetransmission port 44 can transmit not only electricity but also data. The light-emittingportion 6 is disposed on themain body 2 and electrically connected to thetransmission port 44, and the light emitted from the light-emittingportion 6 can be projected through the light-penetrable portion 40 and the emergent light-penetrable portion 43 and via the light-penetrable portion 31 to an exterior of thesolid state disk 1. Therefore, the light emitted from the light-emittingportion 6 can be weakened, evened and soften by the light-penetrable portion 40 and be projected out to present a comfortable visual effect (after a part of the coating layer on the substrate which carries a circuit is removed, a part of the substrate is light-penetrable (preferably the substrate is translucent) to create an evenness effect). - In this embodiment, the
memory module 5 is disposed on thefirst face 41. The light-penetrable shell portion 31 includes adecoration plate 32 on theshell portion 3 and a light-penetrable pattern portion 33 (for example, a trademark) disposed on thedecoration plate 32, the light-penetrable pattern portion 33 can add beauty to thesolid state disk 1, and preferably, the light-penetrable pattern portion 33 may not be hollow-out and be a layer made of a transparent material (for example but not limited thereto, a light-penetrable glass) so as to prevent dust from entering an interior of thesolid state disk 1. Thesubstrate 4 further has asecond face 45 opposite to thefirst face 41, thesubstrate 4 further includes asecond coating layer 46 on thesecond face 45, thesecond coating layer 46 has an incident light-penetrable portion 47 corresponding to the light-penetrable portion 40, the light emitted from the light-emittingportion 6 is capable of being projected through the incident light-penetrable portion 47 to the light-penetrable portion 40, and the light-emittingportion 6 is disposed on thesecond face 45 of thesubstrate 4 and neighboring to the incident light-penetrable portion 47. The light-emittingportion 6 and thememory module 5 are arranged on two opposite sides of thesubstrate 4 to disperse heat conduction, and the light-emittingportion 6 and thememory module 5 can dissipate heat without disturbing each other. The light-emittingportion 6 includes a plurality of light-emittingdiodes 7 which are disposed on thesubstrate 4 and substantially along a contour of the incident light-penetrable portion 47 so as to prevent the light projected from the light-penetrable shell portion 31 from being uneven, and the light-emittingdiodes 7 can save electricity and emit light stably. - The
shell portion 3 further includes areflecting structure 34 corresponding to the light-emittingportion 6, thereflecting structure 34 reflects a part of the light emitted from the light-emittingportion 6 to the incident light-penetrable portion 47, the reflectingstructure 34 is disposed on theshell portion 3 to prevent from occupying a space of thesubstrate 4, the reflectingstructure 34 can make the light which has been reflected even, and the light-penetrable portion 40 and thereflecting structure 34 are for making the light emitted from the light-emittingportion 6 even twice to produce a preferable visual effect. It is to be noted that the emergent light-penetrable portion 43 and the light-penetrable pattern portion 33 correspond to each other in position and shape; therefore, in actual practice, as viewed from a side of thesolid state disk 1 tiltedly, a user can see from the light-penetrable pattern portion 33 that thefirst coating layer 42 is located on an edge of a contour of the light-penetrable pattern portion 33 and form a light shading so as to create a gradient visual effect. The light-emittingportion 6 is emittable in any of at least two kinds of light in different colors so as to enrich the color variations of thesolid state disk 1 and to produce a unique visual effect. Thesubstrate 4 is further provided with aprocessing unit 48, theprocessing unit 48 is electrically connected to the light-emittingportion 6, and the light-emittingportion 6 is controllable by theprocessing unit 48 to create different light variations when thesolid state disk 1 is in operation. - In other embodiments, the emergent light-penetrable portion and the light-penetrable pattern portion may not correspond to each other in position and shape; the shell portion may not have the decoration plate, the light-penetrable pattern portion may be directly disposed on the shell portion, or the shell portion and the decoration plate may be integrally formed; the light-penetrable pattern portion of the solid state disk may be a hollow-out structure; the substrate may further include other devices, for example (but not limited thereto), a special device like a transmission speed detection unit to increase the functionality of the solid state disk; the light-emitting portion may be disposed on the shell portion as long as the light emitted from the light-emitting portion can enter the light-penetrable portion through the incident light-penetrable portion; the light-emitting portion may also include other mechanisms which can provide light; the light-emitting portion may produce only one color of light; the solid state disk may not include the reflecting structure and make the light emitted from the light-emitting portion be projected into the light-penetrable portion directly; the memory module may be disposed on the first face or/and the second face.
- Given the above, the light-penetrable portion of the solid state disk can emit an even and soft light, and the light-penetrable portion and the light-penetrable pattern portion of the solid state disk can provide a special visual effect. The reflecting structure is dispose on the shell portion so that the substrate is more concise.
- While we have shown and described various embodiments in accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
