Description

Sliding mechanism for portable equipment

technical field

The utility model relates to a sliding mechanism of a portable device, in more detail, relates to a sliding mechanism of a portable device which avoids the failure of the engaging structure.

Background technique

At present, in the control devices of general electronic equipment, it is common to use push buttons for switching or locking operations, such as notebook computers, portable DVD/VCD players, and multimedia players, etc., most of which are equipped with The push button pushed horizontally is used to drive the locking mechanism inside the casing. The function of the push button is mainly to control or lock, for example, it is used to lock the main body and the display panel of the notebook computer. Through the push operation of the push button, the opening and closing of the main body and the display panel can be achieved; it can also be used to The electronic accessories are locked and attached to the electronic equipment to realize the installation and fixation of the electronic accessories and the like. Therefore, this type of push button plays an extremely important role in completing the above functions.

Please refer to Figures 4 to 6, which are schematic diagrams showing an embodiment of an existing push button applied to a notebook computer to lock an optical disk drive (Optical Disk Drive, ODD), wherein the optical disk drive can be for example CD-R, CD -RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, etc. As shown in FIG. 4 , it is a three-dimensional exploded schematic diagram showing the push button, the push button includes a driving member 30 and a limiting member 32, wherein the driving member 30 is provided with an engaging portion 300, and the engaging portion 300 is a For the elastic hooks arranged in parallel and whose hooks protrude outward; the limiter 32 is provided with an opening 320 corresponding to the engaging portion 300, and has a sleeve portion 322 for an elastic member such as a spring to be sleeved, And the limiting portion 324 used to limit the optical disc drive, and the limiting portion 324 mainly has an accommodating area 3240 for accommodating the engaging mechanism of the optical disc drive, and a card corresponding to, for example, a hook of the engaging mechanism The locking portion 3242 , and the engaging portion 300 of the driving member 30 passes through the opening 400 of the casing 40 and engages with the opening 320 of the limiting member 32 . When using the push button, as shown in Figure 5, you only need to toggle the driver 30 to make it slide horizontally and link the stopper 32, so that the stopper 324 of the stopper 32 is in contact with the optical disc drive. The engaging mechanisms of each of them reach an engaged or disengaged state with each other.

Please refer to Figure 6, which is a side sectional view showing the assembly of the existing push button on the electronic device. Push in the horizontal direction, but in the actual design process, because the engaging portion 300 of the driving member 30 is two symmetrically arranged hooks, the limit of the engaging portion 300 in the pushing direction is ignored, so that its Structural deflection occurs during pushing. That is to say, when the driving member 30 is controlled to slide relative to the housing and move the limiting member 32 (as shown by arrow A), one of the hooks at the front end of the engaging portion 300 in the sliding direction will be received. The abutting force of the limiter 32, especially when the thrust force is large or the sliding is too fast, the hook will be skewed in the direction opposite to the sliding direction due to excessive force (as arrow B As shown), when the situation is serious, it is more likely to cause the structure of the hook to break, which will easily lead to the structural failure of the push button, affect its handling performance, and also shorten the service life of the push button. Furthermore, the above-mentioned engaging portion 300 needs to be replaced again when it is broken, which will undoubtedly bring more replacement and assembly procedures and increase the cost.

Therefore, how to develop a sliding mechanism of a portable device that can solve the above-mentioned various shortcomings of the prior art, thereby improving the loosening or deformation caused by uneven force, is an urgent problem to be solved at present.
