As shown in fig. 1, thehard disk 3 is disposed inside themounting frame 21, and the left and right sides of thehard disk 3 are respectively fixedly connected to the left side wall of themounting frame 21 and the right side wall of themounting frame 21 through screws. The front ends of the mounting rackleft side plate 211 and the mounting rackright side plate 212 are respectively provided with alimiting plate 214 extending upwards.

As shown in fig. 1 and 3, anupper bar 11 and alower bar 12 are respectively disposed inside thefixing frame 1 on both left and right sides of themounting frame 21, the mounting frameleft side plate 211 is confined between theupper bar 11 and thelower bar 12 on the left side, and the mounting frameright side plate 212 is confined between theupper bar 11 and thelower bar 12 on the right side. That is, theupper guide bar 11 and thelower guide bar 12 respectively form guide grooves on the left and right side walls of thefixing frame 1, and themounting frame 21 can slide back and forth along the guide grooves.

As shown in fig. 7, thehandle 22 includes a lefthandle side plate 221, a fronthandle side plate 223 and a righthandle side plate 222, and thehandle 22 includes the lefthandle side plate 221, the fronthandle side plate 223 and the righthandle side plate 222 which are sequentially connected end to form a U-shaped structure with an open rear end. The handle leftside plate 221 and the handleright side plate 222 are respectively provided with ahinge plate 224 extending downward (downward refers to when thehandle 22 is in a vertical position), and thehinge plate 224 is respectively hinged with the mounting frameleft side plate 211 and the mounting frameright side plate 212 through a hinge shaft. The front side of thehandle front plate 223 is coplanar with the front side of themount front plate 213 when thehandle 22 is in the upright position.

As shown in fig. 8, the inner side surfaces of theleft handle plate 221 and the right handle plate 222 (the side opposite to theleft handle plate 221 and theright handle plate 222 is the inner side) are respectively provided with a clampingprotrusion 225, the limitingplate 214 is provided with a clampinggroove 216, and when thehandle 22 is located at the vertical position, thehandle 22 and the mountingframe 21 are fixedly connected through the matching of the clampingprotrusion 225 and the clampinggroove 216.

As shown in fig. 4, 5 and 6, the front opening of the fixingframe 1 is provided with arc-shaped slidinggrooves 15 on the left and right sides of the mountingframe 21, and the outer side surfaces of thehinge plates 224 are provided with positioningprotrusions 226 matching with the arc-shaped slidinggrooves 15. The front end of thearc chute 15 extends to the outside of the fixingframe 1 and forms an opening shape communicated with the outside. According to the function, the arc-shaped slidinggroove 15 sequentially comprises a guide part and a positioning part from front to back, namely the blind end positioned at the rear end of the arc-shaped slidinggroove 15 is the positioning part.

As shown in fig. 9, 10 and 11, alight guide bar 23 penetrating through theright side plate 212 of the mounting frame along the length direction is disposed on the inner side surface of theright side plate 212 of the mounting frame, and when thebracket 2 is installed in the fixingframe 1, the rear end of thelight guide bar 23 corresponds to the position of theindicator 132 on theback plate 13. As shown in fig. 12, the front end of thelight guide strip 23 is fixedly connected to thelight guide block 24 fixedly disposed on the handlefront side plate 223 by means of plugging.

When the server operates, the light of theindicator light 132 on theback plate 13 is transmitted to thelight guide block 24 at the front end through thelight guide strip 23, and the working condition of thehard disk 3 is judged through the light color reflected by thelight guide block 24.

Preferably, thelight guide strip 23 is made of a fiber material, and thelight guide block 24 is made of a transparent plastic material.

When thehard disk 3 needs to be pulled out of the server, thehandle 22 is held by hand, force is applied outwards to enable the clampingprotrusion 225 on thehandle 22 to be separated from the clampinggroove 216, and then thehandle 22 is rotated until thehandle 22 is in the horizontal position. The horizontal force application to thehandle 22 is continued until theentire holder 2 together with thehard disk 3 is detached from theholder 1.

Further, as shown in fig. 7, at least two arc-shapedplates 215 are respectively disposed on the upper side surfaces of the mounting frameleft side plate 211 and the mounting frameright side plate 212. The arc-shapedplate 215 is disposed on the upper side of the mounting frameleft side plate 211 and the mounting frameright side plate 212, which is just an embodiment, and may be disposed on the lower side of the mounting frameleft side plate 211 and the mounting frameright side plate 212, or disposed on both the upper side and the lower side. Therefore, thebracket 2 and the fixingframe 1 can be relatively fixed, and the damping effect can be achieved in the working process.

Further, if the relative fixation between thebracket 2 and the fixingframe 1 is achieved only by thepositioning projection 226 and the arc-shaped slidinggroove 15, there is a risk of slipping off. Therefore, as shown in fig. 3, inside the fixingframe 1, the limitingblocks 14 matched with the limitingplates 214 are respectively arranged on the left side and the right side of the mountingframe 21, and when the inserting hole on thehard disk 3 is inserted in place with the insertinghead 131 on theback plate 13, the limitingblocks 14 just contact with the rear side surfaces of the limitingplates 214. On the one hand, thebracket 2 can be prevented from being installed to thehard disk 3 or the backboard 13, on the other hand, thepositioning bulge 226 and the positioning part of the arc-shaped slidinggroove 15 generate tension force along the front-back direction through the interaction of the limitingblock 14 and the limitingplate 214, reliable connection is ensured, and slipping is avoided.

Further, as shown in fig. 7, alower notch 217 is disposed on the upper side of thefront side plate 213 of the mounting frame, and anupper notch 227 is disposed on the lower side of thefront side plate 223 of the handle, so that when thehandle 22 needs to be rotated to a horizontal position, a hand can be placed in theupper notch 227 and thelower notch 217, which is convenient for operation.

Preferably, theupper notch 227 and thelower notch 217 are semicircular, and when thehandle 22 is in the vertical position, theupper notch 227 and thelower notch 217 form a complete circle.

The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the principle of the invention, and such modifications and improvements are also considered to be within the scope of the invention.
