DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(30) The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

(31) It should be noted that when a component is said to be “fixed to” another component, it can be fixed directly to another component or it can be fixed indirectly through an intermediate component. When a component is considered to “connect” to another component, it can be directly connected to another component or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate component. When a component is considered to be “set on” another component, it can be set directly on another component or indirectly through an intermediate component. The terms “vertical”, “horizontal”, “left”, “right” and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.

(32) Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field of the present disclosure. The terminology used in the description of the present disclosure herein is for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. The term “or/and” as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

(33) The following describes some embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the case of no conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

(34) Referring to FIG. 1, a fixing device 100 is used to perpendicularly fix an external electronic component 200 on a motherboard 400 in a chassis 300. The motherboard 400 is placed on a bottom surface inside the chassis 300. The electronic component 200 is perpendicularly electrically connected to the motherboard 400 through the chassis 300. The fixing device 100 is installed on a side wall of the chassis 300 to fix the electronic component 200.

(35) The fixing device 100 includes a fixing block 10 and a telescopic block 20. The fixing block 10 is fixed on the side wall of the chassis 300. One end of the telescopic block 20 is slidably installed in the fixing block 10, and the other end extends out of the fixing block 10 and is used to hold the electronic component 200.

(36) Referring to FIG. 2, the electronic component 200 is provided with a port 210. The end of the telescopic block 20 protruding from the fixing block 10 is provided with a corresponding holding slot 21, and the shape of the holding slot 21 is the same as the shape of the port 210. The holding slot 21 is used to hold the port 210 to fix the electronic component 200.

(37) Referring to FIG. 5, the telescopic block 20 is provided with a protruding rail 22, and the fixing block 10 is provided with a groove 11. The telescopic block 20 slides within the fixing block 10 (in the direction of the groove 11) by the protruding rail 22 inserting into the groove 11.

(38) Please refer to FIG. 3, FIG. 4, FIG. 5, and FIG. 6. The fixing block 10 is provided with an insert board 12 directed downward. The chassis 300 is provided with a baffle 310. Both ends of the baffle 310 are fixed to the chassis 300, and a center portion of the baffle 310 is bent toward the fixing block 10 to form an insert slot 311. The insert board 12 is inserted into the insert slot to hold the fixing block 10 on the chassis 300.

(39) The fixing block 10 is also provided with two downwardly extending hooks 13. The hook 13 includes a first protruding plate 131 and a second protruding plate 132. The first protruding plate 131 is connected to the fixing block 10, and the second protruding plate 132 is connected below the end of the first protruding plate 131. The chassis 300 is provided with two through holes 320 (shown in FIG. 2). The hook 13 extends into the through hole 320 and hooks the outer wall of the chassis 300 under the through hole 320 to hold the fixing block 10 on the chassis 300.

(40) The fixing block 10 is also provided with a stopping block 14. The stopping block 14 includes an upward-facing level surface 141 and a downward-facing inclined surface 142. The chassis 300 is provided with a stopping hole 330, and the stopping block 14 is inserted into the stopping hole 330. An upper wall of the stopping hole 330 limits movement of the level surface 141 (in the upward direction).

(41) The fixing block 10 is also provided with a resilient board 15. The stopping block 14 and the fixing block 10 are connected by the resilient board 15. The stopping block 14 is also provided with a handle 143. The handle 143 is used to conveniently pull the stopping block 14 out of the stopping hole 330, and the resilient board 15 is used to elastically reset the stopping block 14.

(42) The working mode of the present disclosure is that when the electronic component 200 is inserted into the chassis 300, the telescopic block 20 is extended to a desired position, so that the holding slot 21 holds the port 210; the insert board 12 and the hooks 13 of the fixing block 10 are respectively inserted into the insert slot and the through holes 320, and the stopping block 14 extends into the stopping hole 330 to fix the fixing block 10 on the chassis 300; when the electronic component 200 needs to be taken out, the handle 143 is pulled to pull out the stopping block 14, and at the same time, the insert board 12 and the hooks 13 of the fixing block 10 are removed from the insert slot and the through holes 320, respectively; the telescopic block 20 is separated from the electronic component 200.

(43) It can be understood that, in other embodiments, the fixing block 10 may be provided with other numbers of hooks 13, and the chassis 300 is provided with other numbers of through holes 320; and the chassis 300 and the fixing device 100 may be integrated into one body.

(44) The fixing device 100 and the chassis 300 with the fixing device 100 achieve the purpose of conveniently fixing the electronic components 200 of different sizes through the fixing block 10, the telescopic block 20, and the holding slot 21.

(45) The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present disclosure and not to limit them. Although the present disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the above preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present disclosure can be modified or equivalently replaced without deviating from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present disclosure.
