Description

External hard disk module

technical field

The utility model relates to an external hard disk module mechanism.

Background technique

The use of space in the current computer system can be said to be penny-pinching, and no waste is allowed. Taking a standardized server system as an example, the size of its casing has been limited. If there is unused space in the enclosure, it must be exploited. Therefore, the non-standard external hard disk module mechanism has become a choice to fill the unused space in the casing.

Utility model content

The purpose of this utility model is to provide a non-standard external hard disk module mechanism to solve the above problems.

The purpose of the utility model is achieved by proposing an external hard disk module. The external hard disk module includes a base, a hard disk shell and an L-shaped bracket. The base includes a first fixing part, a second fixing part and a supporting part, wherein the first fixing part has a plurality of engaging notches, and the supporting part has a positioning hole for fixing the base in a computer casing. A hard disk casing is fixed on the base, and the hard disk casing includes an insertion opening and a third fixing part, wherein the insertion opening allows a hard disk to be inserted. An L-shaped bracket includes a first screw hole and a second screw hole, the first screw hole and the second screw hole are respectively located at both ends of the L-shaped bracket, wherein the second fixing piece and the three fixing pieces are respectively locked on the first screw hole and the second screw hole.

The utility model has the advantage that it uses an external hard disk module, and the hard disk module can be fixed in an unused space in a standardized computer system through a simple screw locking action, so that the space that must be compared is not wasted .

Detailed ways

According to the above, the utility model provides an external hard disk module mechanism, which is used to fill the unused space in the standardized computer system. The details of the mechanism of the external hard disk module will be described below through an embodiment.

Please refer to FIG. 1 , which shows a top view of an external hard disk module according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the external hard disk module shown in FIG. 1 . FIG. 3 is a side view of the external hard disk module shown in FIG. 1 .

Please also refer to Figure 1-3. The external hard disk module 100 mainly includes an L-shaped bracket 102 , a hard disk casing 104 and a base 106 . The rectangular base 106 has a fixing part 106a, a supporting part 106d and a fixing part 106f. The fixing part 106a has two engaging notches 106b/106c, and the supporting part 106d has a positioning hole 106e, so as to fix the base 106 in a casing of a computer. The fixing part 106a is a U-shaped structure (refer to FIG. 3 ), and is located on one side of the rectangular base 106 . The two engaging notches 106b/106c are located on the ㄇ-shaped structure for engaging with corresponding mechanisms on the computer case. The supporting part 106d and the fixing part 106f extend from one corner of the rectangular base 106 , the fixing part 106f extends upwards, and the supporting part 106d extends downwards. The positioning hole 106e of the support member 106d is used for fitting with a corresponding positioning post (not shown in the drawing) on the computer case. The rectangular base 106 can be a metal or plastic base.

The metal hard disk casing 104 is fixed on the base 106 . The hard disk casing 104 includes an insertion opening 104a, a fixing part 104d and a fixing part 104f. The insertion port 104a should be exposed outside the casing of the computer, allowing the user to insert a hard disk (not shown in the figure). The hard disk casing 104 further includes a power connector 104b and a signal connector 104c for respectively connecting to a power supply and a motherboard so that the hard disk inserted into the hard disk casing 104 can operate normally.

The L-shaped bracket 102 surrounds two adjacent sides of the rectangular base 106 (also surrounds two adjacent sides of the hard disk housing 104 ). The fixing part 106 a of the above-mentioned rectangular base 106 is not located in the area surrounded by the L-shaped bracket 102 . The L-shaped bracket 102 includes a screw hole 102a, a screw hole 102c and a positioning column 102b. The screw holes 102 a and the screw holes 102 c are respectively located at two ends of the L-shaped bracket 102 . The screw hole 102a (the inner wall has threads) can be used for the fixing part 104d of the hard disk housing 104 to be locked by passing through the hole 104e with the screw 110a. The screw hole 102c (the inner wall has threads) can be used for the fixing part 106f of the base 106 to be locked by the screw 110b passing through the hole 106g. The positioning post 102 b fits in the positioning hole 104 g of the fixing part 104 f of the hard disk casing 104 . Through the above connecting action, the L-shaped bracket 102 can be fixed on the hard disk casing 104 and the base 106 . The external hard disk module 100 composed of the L-shaped bracket 102 , the hard disk casing 104 and the base 106 can also be conveniently fixed in an unused space in a standardized computer system.
