Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5. 4 is a schematic top view of the hard disk carrier of FIG. 1 placed on a tray and in a release position. 5 is a schematic front view of the hard disk carrier of FIG. 1 placed on the tray and in a release position. To facilitate the subsequent description, first define the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis that are perpendicular to each other. Wherein, the Y axis is parallel to the normal line of the surface of the first vertical wall 12 facing the second vertical wall 13, and the Z axis is parallel to the normal line of the upper surface of the carrier board 11.

首先,先讓止擋件50位於初始位置,而使第一定位凸塊252及第二定位凸塊253分別位於第二定位孔53及讓位缺口54。接著,將硬碟2放置於硬碟載盤20的容置空間24,而使彈性卡固件30之卡固部32的卡固凸塊321例如分別稍微卡入硬碟2的卡槽3內。然後,將卡扣件40之頭部41分別穿過於卡扣孔211的寬部2111,使得卡扣件40之頸部42分別位於卡扣孔211的寬部2111。其中,硬碟載盤20係部分地位於托盤10的第一豎牆12及第二豎牆13之間,且硬碟載盤20的第一側部22及第二側部23分別鄰近於第一豎牆12及第二豎牆13。此時,硬碟載盤20係位於一釋放位置,且較靠近止擋件50之二卡固部32的受壓凸塊322分別係位於第一豎牆12及第二豎牆13之外,而較遠離止擋件50之二卡固部32的受壓凸塊322係分別位於第一豎牆12的讓位孔121及第二豎牆13的讓位孔131,使得這些卡固部32的受壓凸塊322未受到第一豎牆12及第二豎牆13的抵壓。First, let the stopper 50 be located at the initial position, and the first positioning protrusion 252 and the second positioning protrusion 253 are located in the second positioning hole 53 and the recess 54 respectively. Then, the hard disk 2 is placed in the accommodating space 24 of the hard disk carrier 20, so that the securing protrusions 321 of the securing portion 32 of the elastic fastener 30 are slightly latched into the slot 3 of the hard disk 2, for example. Then, the head 41 of the buckle 40 is inserted through the wide part 2111 of the buckle hole 211, so that the neck 42 of the buckle 40 is located at the wide part 2111 of the buckle hole 211, respectively. Wherein, the hard disk carrier 20 is partially located between the first vertical wall 12 and the second vertical wall 13 of the tray 10, and the first side 22 and the second side 23 of the hard disk carrier 20 are respectively adjacent to the first A vertical wall 12 and a second vertical wall 13. At this time, the hard disk carrier 20 is located at a release position, and the pressurized protrusions 322 of the two securing portions 32 closer to the stopper 50 are located outside the first vertical wall 12 and the second vertical wall 13, respectively. The pressurized protrusions 322 of the second securing portion 32 farther from the stopper 50 are respectively located at the relief hole 121 of the first vertical wall 12 and the relief hole 131 of the second vertical wall 13, so that the securing portions 32 The pressed protrusion 322 is not pressed by the first vertical wall 12 and the second vertical wall 13.

接著,請參閱圖6及圖7,圖6為圖1之硬碟載盤擺放於托盤並位於卡固位置的俯視示意圖。圖7為圖1之硬碟載盤擺放於托盤並位於卡固位置的前視示意圖。Next, please refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7. FIG. 6 is a schematic top view of the hard disk carrier of FIG. FIG. 7 is a schematic front view of the hard disk carrier of FIG. 1 placed on the tray and in a fixed position.

沿負X軸向滑動整體硬碟載盤20,使得第一豎牆12及第二豎牆13分別抵壓這些彈性卡固件30之卡固部32的受壓凸塊322,而讓這些卡固部32的卡固凸塊321更深入於硬碟2的卡槽3。當硬碟載盤20從釋放位置移動至一卡固位置時,這些卡固凸塊321在受壓凸塊322分別受第一豎牆12及第二豎牆13之抵壓下維持卡入於硬碟2之卡槽3。如此一來,硬碟2在正負Z軸向上之移動受到這些卡固凸塊321的限制,而使硬碟2固定於硬碟載盤20。因此,硬碟2可不用透過螺絲鎖附即可固定於硬碟載盤20,而節省了螺絲的購買成本及提升了將硬碟2組裝於硬碟載盤20的便利性。Slide the integral hard disk carrier 20 along the negative X axis, so that the first vertical wall 12 and the second vertical wall 13 respectively press against the pressurized protrusions 322 of the securing portions 32 of the elastic fasteners 30, so that the fasteners are secured. The securing protrusion 321 of the part 32 is deeper into the card slot 3 of the hard disk 2. When the hard disk carrier 20 moves from the release position to a locking position, the locking protrusions 321 remain locked in the pressed protrusions 322 under the pressure of the first vertical wall 12 and the second vertical wall 13 respectively. The card slot 3 of the hard disk 2. In this way, the movement of the hard disk 2 in the positive and negative Z-axis is restricted by the securing protrusions 321, so that the hard disk 2 is fixed to the hard disk carrier 20. Therefore, the hard disk 2 can be fixed to the hard disk carrier 20 without screwing, which saves the purchase cost of screws and improves the convenience of assembling the hard disk 2 on the hard disk carrier 20.

另一方面,當硬碟載盤20位於卡固位置時,硬碟載盤20在正負Y軸向上的移動即受到第一豎牆12及第二豎牆13的限制。此外,在硬碟載盤20位於卡固位置的狀態下,卡扣件40之頸部42分別位於卡扣孔211之窄部2112,且硬碟載盤20之底部21位於卡扣件40之頭部41及托盤10的載板11之間。更明確來說,硬碟載盤20之底部21係位於卡扣件40之頭部41及身部43之間。藉此,卡扣件40之頭部41及身部43即限制了硬碟載盤20在正負Z軸向上的移動。On the other hand, when the hard disk carrier 20 is in the clamping position, the movement of the hard disk carrier 20 in the positive and negative Y-axis is restricted by the first vertical wall 12 and the second vertical wall 13. In addition, in the state where the hard disk carrier 20 is in the clamping position, the neck 42 of the buckle 40 is located at the narrow part 2112 of the buckle hole 211, and the bottom 21 of the hard disk carrier 20 is located on the buckle 40 Between the head 41 and the carrier 11 of the tray 10. More specifically, the bottom 21 of the hard disk carrier 20 is located between the head 41 and the body 43 of the fastener 40. Thereby, the head 41 and the body 43 of the buckle 40 restrict the movement of the hard disk carrier 20 in the positive and negative Z-axis.

在本實施例中,由於這些彈性卡固件30之卡固部32的受壓凸塊322具有弧面3221,故在沿負X軸向滑動整體硬碟載盤20的過程中,卡固部32之受壓凸塊322的弧面3221可提供導引的效果,使得硬碟載盤20的滑動較為順暢。In the present embodiment, since the pressurized protrusions 322 of the securing portions 32 of the elastic fasteners 30 have curved surfaces 3221, the securing portions 32 are in the process of sliding the integral hard disk carrier 20 along the negative X axis. The curved surface 3221 of the pressed protrusion 322 can provide a guiding effect, so that the hard disk carrier 20 can slide smoothly.

在本實施例中,這些卡固凸塊321在未受到外力的狀態下並不限於分別穿設於第一側部22的二穿孔221及第二側部23的二穿孔231。在其他實施例中,這些卡固凸塊在未受到外力的狀態下可未穿設於第一側部的二穿孔及第二側部的二穿孔。在這樣的配置下,在裝有硬碟的硬碟載盤尚未從釋放位置移動至卡固位置之前,這些卡固凸塊尚未卡入硬碟,而在裝有硬碟的硬碟載盤移動至卡固位置之後,這些卡固凸塊受到第一豎牆及第二豎牆的抵壓作用才卡入硬碟。In this embodiment, the securing protrusions 321 are not limited to the two through holes 221 of the first side portion 22 and the two through holes 231 of the second side portion 23 when they are not subjected to external force. In other embodiments, the fixing protrusions may not penetrate the two through holes on the first side and the two through holes on the second side when they are not subjected to external force. In this configuration, before the hard disk carrier with the hard disk has been moved from the release position to the securing position, the latching bumps have not been inserted into the hard disk, and the hard disk carrier is moved on the hard disk carrier. After reaching the fixing position, the fixing protrusions are pressed into the hard disk only after being pressed by the first vertical wall and the second vertical wall.

接著,轉動止擋件50,使止擋件50從初始位置轉動至止擋位置。當止擋件50位於止擋位置時,止擋件50之相異側分別抵靠於載板11之止擋部111的二止擋面1111、1112(如圖2所示),且第一定位凸塊252及第二定位凸塊253分別位於第一定位孔52及第二定位孔53。從圖2來看,止擋部111的止擋面1111係面向負X軸向,故止擋件50抵靠於止擋部111的止擋面1111之設置限制了硬碟載盤20於正X軸向上的移動。此外,卡扣孔211之窄部2112及卡扣件40之頸部42的搭配限制了硬碟載盤20於負X軸向上的移動。Then, the stopper 50 is rotated to rotate the stopper 50 from the initial position to the stop position. When the stopper 50 is at the stop position, the different sides of the stopper 50 abut against the two stop surfaces 1111, 1112 of the stop portion 111 of the carrier board 11 (as shown in FIG. 2), and the first The positioning protrusion 252 and the second positioning protrusion 253 are respectively located in the first positioning hole 52 and the second positioning hole 53. From FIG. 2, the stop surface 1111 of the stop part 111 faces the negative X-axis, so the setting of the stop part 50 against the stop surface 1111 of the stop part 111 restricts the hard disk carrier 20 in the positive direction. Movement on the X axis. In addition, the combination of the narrow portion 2112 of the buckle hole 211 and the neck 42 of the buckle 40 restricts the movement of the hard disk carrier 20 in the negative X axis.

若欲將硬碟載盤20分離於托盤10,即將止擋件50自止擋位置轉動至初始位置,使止擋件50分離於載板11的止擋部111。接著,沿正X軸向滑動硬碟載盤20,使得這些卡扣件40之頸部42分別位於卡扣孔211之寬部2111。此時,可沿正Z軸向,拿取硬碟載盤20,而使硬碟載盤20分離於托盤10。接著,後續只要稍微撥動這些彈性卡固件30,使卡固凸塊321脫離於硬碟2之卡槽3,即可將硬碟2分離於硬碟載盤20。If the hard disk carrier 20 is to be separated from the tray 10, the stopper 50 is rotated from the stop position to the initial position, so that the stopper 50 is separated from the stop portion 111 of the carrier board 11. Then, the hard disk carrier 20 is slid along the positive X axis, so that the necks 42 of the fasteners 40 are located at the wide portions 2111 of the fastener holes 211, respectively. At this time, the hard disk carrier 20 can be taken along the positive Z axis, and the hard disk carrier 20 can be separated from the tray 10. Then, afterwards, just slightly move these flexible fasteners 30 to make the locking protrusion 321 separate from the slot 3 of the hard disk 2, and the hard disk 2 can be separated from the hard disk carrier 20.

在本實施例中,藉由止擋件50之導引槽51及前豎部25之導引凸塊251的設置,可限制止擋件50的轉動角度,以避免止擋件50過度轉動。本實施例中,前豎部25具有導引凸塊251,且止擋件50具有導引槽51的設置,並非用以限定本發明。在其他實施例中,止擋件可具有導引槽,而前豎部具有導引凸塊。或者是,豎板部可無導引凸塊,而止擋件可無限位槽。In this embodiment, by the arrangement of the guide groove 51 of the stopper 50 and the guide protrusion 251 of the front vertical portion 25, the rotation angle of the stopper 50 can be restricted to avoid excessive rotation of the stopper 50. In this embodiment, the front vertical portion 25 has a guiding protrusion 251, and the stopper 50 has a guiding groove 51, which is not intended to limit the present invention. In other embodiments, the stopper may have a guiding groove, and the front vertical portion has a guiding protrusion. Or, the vertical plate part may have no guiding protrusion, and the stopper may have an infinite slot.

另外,在止擋件50從初始位置轉動至止擋位置時,止擋件50會抵靠於止擋部111的止擋面1112,故止擋部111的止擋面1112可確保止擋件50在轉動至止擋位置之後不可再繼續轉動。In addition, when the stopper 50 rotates from the initial position to the stop position, the stopper 50 will abut the stop surface 1112 of the stopper 111, so the stopper surface 1112 of the stopper 111 can ensure the stopper. 50 can not continue to rotate after rotating to the stop position.

再者,藉由第一定位凸塊252、第二定位凸塊253、第一定位孔52、第二定位孔53及讓位缺口54之搭配,幫助了止擋件50定位於初始位置或止擋位置,以降低位於初始位置或止擋位置之止擋件50非預期轉動的機率。Furthermore, the combination of the first positioning protrusion 252, the second positioning protrusion 253, the first positioning hole 52, the second positioning hole 53, and the relief notch 54 helps the stopper 50 to be positioned at the initial position or stop. To reduce the probability of unexpected rotation of the stopper 50 at the initial position or the stop position.

在本實施例中,讓位缺口54除了有定位止擋件50的效果之外,還有讓位給第二定位凸塊253的效果,以避免止擋件50在轉動至初始位置時第二定位凸塊253與止擋件50處於干涉的狀態。In this embodiment, in addition to the effect of positioning the stopper 50, the giving way gap 54 also has the effect of giving way to the second positioning protrusion 253, so as to prevent the stopper 50 from rotating to the initial position. The positioning protrusion 253 and the stopper 50 are in a state of interference.

然而,前豎部25具有第一定位凸塊252及第二定位凸塊253,及止擋件50具有第一定位孔52、第二定位孔53及讓位缺口54之設置並非用以限定本發明。在其他實施例中,前豎部可無第一定位凸塊及第二定位凸塊,且止擋件可無第一定位孔、第二定位孔及讓位缺口。However, the arrangement that the front vertical portion 25 has a first positioning protrusion 252 and a second positioning protrusion 253, and the stopper 50 has a first positioning hole 52, a second positioning hole 53, and a recess 54 are not intended to limit the present invention. invention. In other embodiments, the front vertical portion may be free of the first positioning protrusion and the second positioning protrusion, and the stopper may be free of the first positioning hole, the second positioning hole and the recession.

另一方面,彈性卡固件30之數量並不以四個為限。在其他實施例中,硬碟承載組件可僅有較靠近止擋件的二彈性卡固件,或是僅有較遠離止擋件的二彈性卡固件。On the other hand, the number of flexible card firmware 30 is not limited to four. In other embodiments, the hard disk carrier assembly may have only two elastic fasteners closer to the stopper, or only two elastic fasteners farther from the stopper.

根據上述實施例所揭露的硬碟承載組件,藉由二彈性卡固件分別設置於硬碟載盤之第一側部及第二側部,且硬碟載盤之第一側部及第二側部分別鄰近於托盤的第一豎牆及第二豎牆,使得在硬碟載盤滑動至卡固位置時,二彈性卡固件分別受第一豎牆及第二豎牆抵壓,而卡固於硬碟。因此,硬碟可不用透過螺絲鎖附即可固定於硬碟載盤,而節省了螺絲的購買成本及提升了將硬碟組裝於硬碟載盤的便利性。According to the hard disk carrier assembly disclosed in the above embodiment, two flexible fasteners are respectively arranged on the first side and the second side of the hard disk carrier, and the first side and the second side of the hard disk carrier The parts are respectively adjacent to the first vertical wall and the second vertical wall of the tray, so that when the hard disk carrier slides to the clamping position, the two elastic fasteners are respectively pressed by the first vertical wall and the second vertical wall, and the On the hard drive. Therefore, the hard disk can be fixed to the hard disk carrier without screwing, which saves the purchase cost of screws and improves the convenience of assembling the hard disk on the hard disk carrier.
