Description

Side panel structure and casing structure for a casing

technical field

The utility model relates to a casing structure, in particular to a side plate structure applied in an electrical appliance casing, and the utility model also relates to a casing structure using the side plate.

Background technique

In the existing various household electrical appliances, a housing structure is often used to accommodate and integrate various electronic components inside it, such as personal computers and power supplies. In the products, different types of casing structures are applied.

Taking the power supply inside the computer as an example, its appearance is mostly cubic, and an accommodating space is mainly defined by a base and an upper cover. Electronic components such as a transformer, a power supply fan, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) are placed inside the accommodating space. Among them, the material that makes up the base and the upper cover of the casing is generally a metal plate, and the base is formed by stamping a metal plate into a box body with a bottom and two side plates, and then the base and the upper cover are locked by screws. combined. On the other hand, there are four system holes on one side of the base (referred to as the system surface), and the entire power supply is combined with the computer case by screw locking.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , which are schematic diagrams of the chassis structure of a conventional power supply. Wherein, the casing structure 10 is formed by punching a metal plate into a box body with a base 11 and two side plates 12, which can be closely combined with an upper cover (not shown) to define an accommodating space. Wherein, the side board combined with the computer case is also called the system side. In order to closely combine the casing structure 10 with the upper cover, the conventional technology is to bend in the box on the top of the two side plates 12 and in the left and right directions respectively, and form an upper fold on the sides of the two side plates 12 respectively. Edge 13 and left and right folded edge 14.

Secondly, in order to make the power supply unit and the computer case be able to be combined stably, the conventional technology sets a system hole 30 respectively in the left and right upper corners and the left and right lower corners of the system surface, and sets at least four holes 30 in the upper folded edge 13. 40 screw holes. After installing the transformer, power fan, EMI and other electronic components (not shown) in the accommodating space, cover the upper cover, and then lock the screw holes 40 with a plurality of screws to complete the assembly of the power supply. Finally, a plurality of screws are used to securely install the power supply on the computer case through the system hole 30 .

Wherein, the joints between the upper hem 13 of the prior art and the two left and right hems 14 form a right angle and have a seam 50 . During the above-mentioned installation process, because the power supply itself is heavy, after the system hole 30 is screwed to the computer case, the strength is insufficient due to the seam at the junction, which easily causes the deformation of the case structure. In particular, the two system holes 30 located at the left and upper right corners of the side panel 12 are also very close to the junction of the folded edges 13 and 14, thus aggravating the degree of deformation of the chassis structure and making it difficult to fix the power supply on the chassis, etc. Quality issues. For example, when the computer is working, if it accidentally bumps into the computer case, it will easily cause the power supply to shake, which may cause many problems such as power short circuit and computer burnout; it is also difficult for consumers to improve the quality impression of the overall product.

Detailed ways

Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, which describe a casing structure 100 provided by the invention, which can be connected with an upper cover (not shown) to define an accommodating space (not shown) for accommodating various Electronic components. Specifically, the casing structure includes a base 110 and two side plates 120 , and the two side plates 120 are vertically arranged on two opposite sides of the base 110 . Wherein, each of the side panels 120 includes an upper edge 122 and at least one side edge 124, the upper edge 122 extends from an upper edge of each side panel 120, and the at least one side edge 124 is from each side panel At least one side of 120 extends. In particular, the upper edge 122 and the at least one side edge 124 extend toward the same direction, and the upper edge 122 and the at least one side edge 124 form a continuous extending surface.

In a preferred embodiment, the aforementioned two side panels 120 and the base 110 are integrally formed by bending a metal plate, and the upper flange 122, the at least one side flange 124 and each of the side panels 120 are also Shaped in the same way to further increase the strength of the structure. In addition, the aforementioned upper edge 122 and the at least one side edge 124 extend towards the accommodating space, and between the upper edge 122 and the at least one side edge 124 forms a continuously extending arc-shaped curved surface, formed on A corner area of the side panel 120 .

In order to further effectively enhance the strength of the casing structure, the two side panels 120 in the casing structure shown in FIG. Two continuous extending surfaces are formed between the upper edge and the two side edges of each side plate 120 to further strengthen the strength of the casing structure and reduce the problem of structural deformation.

Like the known technology, the present invention sets a plurality of screw holes 400 on one of the upper flange 122 and the two side flanges 124 of each side plate 120 in the casing structure, so as to lock the upper cover on the casing structure. , forming the accommodating space for accommodating various electronic components. Specifically, a plurality of screw holes 400 can be provided at the ends of the upper flange 122 and the two side flanges 124 , so that the screws pass through the screw holes 400 to lock the upper cover to the casing structure.

Similarly, depending on the actual application, this invention can also set a plurality of system holes 300 at appropriate positions (for example, at the four corners) on the side plate 120, so as to lock the entire casing structure to other structures. superior. For example, when the casing structure of the present invention is applied to a power supply, the entire power supply can pass through the system hole and be locked on the electronic product to which the power supply is applied. For example, the power supply can be supplied through the system hole 300. lock to the computer.

It should be noted that, since the invention has the base 110 and the two side panels 120 integrally formed, as well as the upper flange 122 and the two side flanges 124 integrally formed, the strength of the casing structure can be improved. Moreover, a rigid connecting hem formed by three hems has no joints at the joints of the hems, which can make the casing structure more stable when installed on other structures without causing deformation of the casing structure. Therefore, even if the system hole 300 is arranged at the edge of the side plate, it will not cause the problem of deformation of the casing structure, and because of the existence of the continuous folded edge, the possibility of cutting injuries to maintenance or assembly personnel is greatly reduced.
