The ejector includes a body, a first elastic member, a plate, a block, a rotating unit, and a second elastic member. The ejector of the present invention is able to eject the external device engaged therewith. Thus, the apparatus can be applied to an electronic device required for detaching the external device. | 08-19-2010 |
20110085295 | APPARATUS FOR MOUNTING DEVICE HAVING ELECTRICAL TERMINALS - An apparatus for mounting a device having electrical terminals includes a bracket and a tray. The bracket has two first protruding portions and two pivoting mechanisms adapted to be connected to a base. The tray is positioned between the bracket and the base and adapted to carry the device having electrical terminals. The tray has a bottom surface and two first protrusions. When the bracket is pivotally connected to the base and when the bracket is rotated so that the first protruding portions slide on the first protrusions, the first protrusions are pushed to move toward the pivoting mechanisms and drive the bottom surface to move. | 04-14-2011 |
20110299237 | MULTI-LEVEL HARD DRIVE ENCLOSURE - The hard drive enclosure contains a casing member where a first rack at a first lateral side has a number of partition plates, each having a number of through holes allowing a rod to pass through. A number of covers laterally arranged in parallel on a front side of the hard drive enclosure, each capable of swiveling around a front axle and engages a rod. A number of levers are pivotally configured adjacent to a back side of the first rack, each engaged by a rod and having a pushing piece. When a cover is pulled outward, a rod is engaged to drive a lever whose pushing piece ejects the hard drive for additional distance. | 12-08-2011 |
20120120592 | DISK DRIVE MECHANISM AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING THE SAME - A disk drive mechanism includes a bracket and a tray slidably received in the bracket. The bracket includes a bottom wall, two sidewalls protruding from the bottom wall, two guiding rails fixed to the sidewalls respectively, and two sliding rails slidably coupled to the guiding rails respectively. The bottom wall and the sidewalls cooperatively define an entrance. Each guiding rail includes an end maintaining a distance from the entrance. The tray is slidably coupled to the sliding rails and is capable of being inserted into and ejected out of the bracket from the entrance via the sliding rails. A supporting member is arranged between the end of each guiding rail and the entrance. The supporting member is used to support the sliding rails in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the tray inserted into the bracket. An electronic device using the disk drive mechanism is also provided. | 05-17-2012 |
20120320521 | EXTRACTING APPARATUS FOR STORAGE MODULE - An extracting apparatus for a storage module includes a bracket and a holder. The bracket includes a fastener. The holder is withdrawable mounted to the bracket. The holder is for fixing the storage module. The holder includes a handle. The handle includes an arm pivotably connecting with the holder and an operating portion pivotably connecting with the arm. The operating portion is operated to fold to abut the arm, and the fastener latching the handle to fixedly mount the holder on the bracket. | 12-20-2012 |
20130070415 | Push-Push Eject Disk Drive Chassis - A push-push eject disk drive chassis user-swappably accepts a disk drive, without tools or a caddy and is sufficiently narrow, such that two such chassis may be disposed side-by-side within a housing having a standard disk drive form factor and accept disk drives having smaller form factors. A data storage system that conforms to a disk drive form factor and that can be installed into a disk drive bay of a user computer includes a plurality of such disk drive chassis user-swappably accepts a plurality of side-by-side disk drives, without tools or caddies. The data storage system may include electronics that manage storage space on any disk drives installed in the chassis and present the cumulative storage space (less space used for overhead and redundancy) as a single virtual disk drive to the user computer. | 03-21-2013 |
20130163184 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - An electronic apparatus includes a casing, a terminal electrode, a lock mechanism, and a driving unit. The lock mechanism includes an arm member movable between a lock position at which the arm member is engaged to an engagement portion of a storage medium and an unlock position at which it is disengaged from the engagement portion. The biasing member biases the arm member to the lock position. The arm member interferes with the storage medium moving in a first direction to move from the lock position to the unlock position and returns to the lock position at a position at which a connection terminal of the storage medium is connected to the terminal electrode to limit movement of the storage medium in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The driving unit moves the arm member from the lock position to the unlock position according to an input operation. | 06-27-2013 |
20130176677 | Storage device carrier ejection spring - A spring for ejecting a storage device module from a chassis is provided. The spring includes a first end, where the first end is held captive when the spring is installed in the chassis. The spring includes a second end, opposite the first end, and a body between the first and second ends. The body is formed with serpentine bends proceeding linearly between the first and second ends and in a common plane with the first end. The second end is oriented orthogonal to the common plane. The spring is in expansion when the storage device module is inserted into the chassis. The storage device module pushes against the second end when the storage device module is fully inserted into the chassis. The spring exerts force outward from the chassis when expanded. | 07-11-2013 |
20130301211 | FIXING APPARATUS FOR A HARD DISK - A fixing apparatus for a hard disk is disclosed. The fixing apparatus for a hard disk is used to accommodate a hard disk and includes a fixing bracket and a quick release device. The fixing bracket includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall, wherein the first sidewall and the second sidewall include a front perforation and a front fixed element, respectively. The quick release device includes a pair of resilient arms pivotally connected to the first sidewall and the second sidewall, respectively, so that each of the resilient arms can be rotated respectively relative to the first sidewall and the second sidewall to form a first state and a second state. | 11-14-2013 |
20150062801 | MOUNTING APPARATUS FOR HARD DISK DRIVE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH THE MOUNTING APPARATUS - A mounting apparatus includes a bracket receiving a hard disk drive (HDD), a transmission mechanism mounted on a side of the bracket, and an operation member. The transmission mechanism includes an installing frame, a first rack, and a second rack. The gear is engaged with the first and second racks. A first end of the operation member is detachably latched to the bracket, while a second end of the operation member is movably connected to the bracket. An abutting piece protrudes out from a rear end of the second rack and abuts against a rear end of the hard disk drive. The operation member is slid rearward, to push the first rack to slide rearward. The first rack drives the gear to rotate, the gear drives the second rack to slide forward, and the abutting piece abuts against the HDD to move the HDD out of the bracket. | 03-05-2015 |
