Abstract:
This invention discloses a lock mechanism. The lock mechanism comprises a tray, a locking element, a solenoid, a linked apparatus, a first arm and a boss. The locking element has a protrusion and is rotably fixed on the tray. The solenoid is fixed on the tray and supplies a magnetic force to an active block. The linked apparatus is connected with the active block of the solenoid and is rotably fixed on the tray to push the locking element. The first arm is rotably fixed on the tray to push the linked apparatus and has a protruding rib to push against the protrusion of the locking element. The boss cooperates with the locking element when the tray is loaded. According to this mechanism, the sounds resulted from the locking element and the first arm are happened at the same time.
Abstract:
A fixing structure for computer mainboard is provided. The mainboard is clamped between a guard board and a back board. Through the appropriate arrangement of a snap pillar of the guard board and a gourd-shaped hole of the back board, after the snap pillar penetrates the mainboard and the gourd-shaped hole, the mainboard, the guard board and the back board are snapped by moving the back board properly. Furthermore, in the snap state, a fixing pillar penetrates the mainboard and the back board, so as to fasten the two boards. Thus, the step of locking by screws in the conventional art is simplified, and the assembly or disassembly can be fulfilled without any assembling/disassembling tools.
Abstract:
A voltage buffer circuit is disclosed for receiving an input voltage and generating an output voltage. The voltage buffer circuit includes a voltage buffer stage and a voltage output stage. The voltage buffer stage buffers the input voltage and generates a first voltage. The voltage buffer stage includes a first circuit. The voltage output stage is coupled to the voltage buffer stage for receiving the first voltage and generating the output voltage. The circuit structure of the voltage output stage corresponds to the circuit structure of the first circuit.
Abstract:
A heat sink has a substrate with first pivoting portions thereon. A heat scattering member has a plurality of fins on a top thereof, a protrusion on a periphery thereof and a pressing portion between the protrusion and the distal fin. A clip member has connection portions, second pivoting portions and a lock portion. The second pivoting portions are projected from ends of the connection portions to be pivotally connected to the first pivoting portions of the substrate. The clip member is moved between a fist position and a second position. The lock portions are projected from the other ends of the connection portions to be engaged with the pressing portions while the lock portion is moved to the second position.
Abstract:
A disc braking device is utilized in an optical disc drive. The disc braking device is installed on a disc tray of an optical disc drive. Without being affected by an covering component or the location of the disc braking device, the disc braking device makes a disc stop rotating in a more direct and efficient way. The disc braking device contains a structure portion; a braking rod installed and not fixed on the structure portion; and a braking component installed on the braking rod and utilized for making the disc stop rotating.
Abstract:
A modularized electronic device operating status display architecture is proposed, which is designed for use with a modularized electronic device mounted on the inside of a chassis of an electronic system, and which is capable of detecting whether the modularized electronic device operates normally during operation to thereby display its operating status as light signals on the outside of the chassis to allow assembly personnel or user to learn the operating status by visually checking the externally-displayed light signals. The proposed modularized electronic device operating status display architecture is more advantageous to use in that it allows the assembly to be less complex in structure and more increased in productivity. Furthermore, it allows no removal and reconnection of electrical wires during the replacement of a faulted modularized device. This feature allows both assembly and maintenance of the modularized fan unit to be more convenient and efficient than prior art.
Abstract:
A disk reading device operates in both a suction mode and a cover-lifting mode. The device has a lower cover having a wall with an elongated opening provided in the wall, an upper cover that is connected for pivoting movement with respect to the lower cover, and a disk receiving space between the lower and upper covers. The disk receiving space is accessible via the elongated opening in a suction mode and by opening the upper cover with respect to the lower cover in a cover-lifting mode. A disk is drawn via the elongated opening into the disk receiving space, or a disk can be manually placed in the disk receiving space by opening the upper cover with respect to the lower cover. The device also includes a switch that switches operation of the disk reading device from the suction mode to the cover-lifting mode.
Abstract:
The present invention is to provide a standoff connector comprising a body having a base at a lower end thereof, at least one flexible wing disposed on a surface of the body and being spaced from the base by a distance, a neck disposed at a top end of the body, and a handle disposed at a top end of the neck. When the body is inserted into an opening of a board, the board can be clamped between the base and the wing. The handle is adapted to insert into an elongated clearance opening of another board for urging the another board against the body while the handle being rotated about 90 degrees to the position perpendicular to the clearance opening.
Abstract:
A protective cover plate mainly comprises a substrate, a printing layer, an ultraviolet layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the printing layer is disposed at a side surface of the substrate. The printing layer is formed with at least a pattern. The pattern protrudes the substrate to form a segmental difference surface. The ultraviolet layer is disposed to another side surface of the printing layer relative to the substrate, and the ultraviolet layer is disposed with at least a filling portion. The filling portion can be relatively located near the pattern to fill the segmental difference surface of the pattern to flat the surface. A side of the ultraviolet layer is disposed with the adhesive layer. The plate can be adhered to the article by utilizing the adhesive layer. The protective cover plate does not only have flat appearance but also achieves dustproof and dirt prevention efficacies.
