Technical Field

The present invention relates to a load bearing assembly, and more particularly, to a load bearing assembly including a shock absorbing member.

Background

Generally, a vehicle may pass through a pothole or encounter an uneven road surface while traveling. When the vehicle passes through a pot hole or encounters a rough road surface, vibration may occur. And the vehicle computer or the vehicle server is locked in the locking hole of the vehicle shell through the locking piece. Therefore, when the vehicle is subjected to the vibration, the vibration is further transmitted from the vehicle shell to the vehicle computer or the vehicle server through the locking piece.

However, since the damping mechanism of the present locking member is simple in structure, the conventional damping mechanism cannot effectively damp the above-mentioned vibration. Therefore, the operation of the vehicle computer or the vehicle server may be affected by the vibration.

Disclosure of Invention

The present invention provides a carrier assembly for effectively damping vibration applied to a housing of an electronic device.

The invention discloses a bearing component which is used for fixing a shell of an electronic device to a shell and comprises a plate body, a damping piece and a locking piece. The plate body includes a mounting hole. The shock-absorbing piece is arranged in the mounting hole and comprises an opening. The locking part is arranged in the opening of the shock absorption part in a penetrating way. One side of the locking piece is used for being fixed on the shell, and the damping piece is clamped between the other side of the locking piece and the shell and is in a pressed state.

The invention further discloses a bearing assembly for fixing a shell of an electronic device to a machine shell, which comprises a plate body, a damping piece, a positioning column and a locking piece. The plate body comprises a mounting hole and is used for being fixed on a shell of the electronic device. The shock-absorbing piece is arranged in the mounting hole and comprises an opening. The positioning column penetrates through the opening of the damping piece and the machine shell and is used for fixing the shell of the electronic device on the machine shell through the plate body. The locking part is locked in the positioning column, and the positioning column is clamped between one side of the locking part and the shell to enable the damping part to be in a pressed state.

According to the bearing assembly disclosed in the above embodiment, since the plate body is fixed to the housing of the electronic device through the shock absorbing member and the locking member, and the shock absorbing member is in a compressed state, the shock absorbing member clamped between the housing and the locking member can effectively absorb the shock transmitted to the housing of the electronic device through the locking member. Therefore, the vibration of the shell of the electronic device can be effectively reduced.

In addition, because the plate body is fixed on the shell of the electronic device through the shock absorbing piece, the positioning column and the locking piece, and the shock absorbing piece is in a pressed state, the shock absorbing piece clamped between one side of the locking piece and the shell can effectively absorb the shock transmitted to the shell of the electronic device through the locking piece and the positioning column. Therefore, the vibration of the shell of the electronic device can be effectively reduced.

The following examples further illustrate the aspects of the present invention in detail, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention in any way.

Please refer to fig. 1 and fig. 3. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing that a housing of an electronic device is mounted to a carrier assembly according to a first embodiment of the invention. Fig. 2 is a partially enlarged side sectional view of a housing and a carrier assembly of the electronic device in fig. 1. FIG. 3 is a schematic side cross-sectional view of a shock absorber embodying the load bearing assembly of FIG. 2 when not yet compressed.

The carrier assembly 10 is configured to be mounted on one side of the housing 21 of the electronic device 20 to fix the housing 21 to the chassis 30. In the present embodiment, the bearing assembly 10 includes a plate 100, a plurality of shock absorbing members 200, and a plurality of locking members 300. In the embodiment, the electronic device 20 is, for example, a vehicle computer, and the casing 30 is, for example, disposed in a rear compartment.

The board body 100 includes a plurality of mounting holes 101 and is fixed to one side of the housing 21 of the electronic device 20.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the shock absorbing member 200 is disposed in the mounting hole 101 and includes an opening 201 and a slot 202. The locking groove 202 is separated from the opening 201, and the plate 100 is locked to the locking groove 202 to position the shock absorbing member 200.

However, the shock absorbing member 200 is not limited to include the engaging groove 202 for engaging with the board body 100. In other embodiments, the damping member does not need to include a slot and is tightly engaged with the plate.

The locking member 300 is, for example, a stepped screw and includes a rod portion 301, a fastening portion 302 and a stopper portion 303 which are integrally formed. The rod portion 301 and the fastening portion 302 are connected to each other. The width W1 of the lever portion 301 is greater than the width W2 of the fastening portion 302. The stop portion 303 protrudes radially from an end of the rod portion 301 away from the fastening portion 302. The rod 301 is inserted through the opening 201 of the shock absorber 200. The fastening portion 302 is fixed to the cabinet 30. The damper 200 is sandwiched between the stopper 303 and the housing 30 to be further positioned.

Please refer to fig. 2 and fig. 3. In the present embodiment, the original length H1 of the shock absorbing member 200 when not pressed is greater than the engaging length H2 of the rod 301 of the locking member 300 extending axially from the side connected to the fastening portion 302 to the stopping portion 303. In detail, the difference between the original length H1 of the shock absorbing member 200 when not pressed and the engaging length H2 of the rod 301 of the locking member 300 is substantially seven percent of the engaging length H2 of the rod 301 of the locking member 300. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the original length H1 of the shock absorbing member 200 when not pressed is, for example, 12.7 millimeters (mm), and the engaging length H2 of the rod 301 of the locking member 300 is, for example, 11.8 mm.

As shown in fig. 2, when the locking member 300 is mounted on the plate 100 through the damper 200, the damper 200 is sandwiched between the stopping portion 303 and the housing 30 and is in a pressed state, so that the length of the damper 200 after being pressed is equal to the engaging length H2 of the rod portion 301. Thus, the shock absorbing member 200 can further reduce the shock to which the housing 21 of the electronic device 20 is subjected,

specifically, in the rack vibration test, when the real group and the test group both bear the weight of 16 kg for the load bearing assembly 10 and include four shock absorbing members 200, the first peak is generated at 23 hz and the acceleration load is 2.49 times the gravitational acceleration (G). When the real group is the load bearing member 10 bearing a weight of 16 kg and includes six dampers 200 and the test group is the load bearing member 10 bearing a weight of 10.7 kg and includes four dampers 200, the first peak is generated at 29 hz and an acceleration load of 2.95 times the gravitational acceleration.

However, the present invention is not limited to the degree to which the shock absorbing member 200 is compressed. In other embodiments, the difference between the unstressed length of the shock absorbing member and the engaging length of the rod portion of the locking member is greater than or less than seven percent of the engaging length of the rod portion of the locking member.

Furthermore, the carrier assembly 10 is not limited to be mounted on only one side of the housing 21 of the electronic device 20. In other embodiments, the two carrying components are respectively mounted on two opposite sides of the housing of the electronic device.

The present invention is not limited to the structure of the shock absorbing member 200 and the manner in which the shock absorbing member 200 is fixed to the housing 30, please refer to fig. 4 and 5. Fig. 4 is a partially enlarged side sectional view of a housing of an electronic device and a carrier assembly according to a second embodiment of the invention. FIG. 5 is a schematic side cross-sectional view of the shock absorber member of the load bearing assembly of FIG. 4 when not yet compressed.

In the present embodiment, the bearing assembly 10a includes a plate 100a, a damping member 200a, a positioning column 400a and a locking member 300 a.

The plate body 100a includes a mounting hole 101a and is fixed to the housing 21a of the electronic device 20 a.

In the present embodiment, the shock absorbing member 200a has a two-piece structure. In detail, the damper 200a includes a first damper 210a and a second damper 220 a. The first damper 210a includes a first sub-opening 211a, the second damper 220a includes a second sub-opening 221a, and the first sub-opening 211a and the second sub-opening 221a together form an opening 201 a. The first damper 210a is interposed between the plate body 100a and the second damper 220 a. The second damper 220a is interposed between the first damper 210a and the housing 30 a. In other words, the shock absorbing member 200a in the present embodiment is a combined structure, but not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the shock absorbing member is a one-piece structure.

In addition, the first shock absorbing member 210a includes a catching groove 202 a. The slot 202a is separated from the opening 201a and the plate 100a is engaged with the slot 202 a.

However, the first shock absorbing member 210a is not limited to include the catching groove 202a, that is, the two-piece shock absorbing member 200a is not limited to include the catching groove 202 a. In other embodiments, the first damping element does not include a slot and is tightly engaged with the plate.

In addition, in the present embodiment, the outer shape of the first damper 210a is substantially the same as the outer shape of the second damper 220 a. Thus, the same mold can be used to manufacture the first damper 210a and the second damper 220a, thereby reducing the production cost of the damper 200 a. However, the outer shape of the first shock absorbing member 210a is not limited to be substantially the same as that of the second shock absorbing member 220 a. In other embodiments, the first shock absorbing member has a different outer shape than the second shock absorbing member.

The positioning post 400a is disposed through the opening 201a and the housing 30a to fix the housing 21a of the electronic device 20a to the housing 30a through the plate 100 a.

The locking member 300a includes a head 301a, a body 302a and a stopper 500a connected to each other. The body 302a is locked in the positioning post 400 a. The blocking portion 500a protrudes radially from the body portion 302a and is combined with the body portion 302 a. That is, the stopper portion 500a is a spacer of the assembled body portion 302 a. The stopper portion 500a is interposed between the head portion 301a and the positioning post 400 a. The stopper 500a and the housing 30a together clamp the damper 200 a.

However, the shock absorbing member 200a is not limited to a two-piece structure, that is, the shock absorbing member is not limited to include a first shock absorbing member and a second shock absorbing member. In other embodiments, the damping member is fixed to the housing of the electronic device through the positioning post and the locking member.

In addition, referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic side sectional view showing the shock absorbing member of the load bearing assembly of fig. 4 when the shock absorbing member is not compressed. In the present embodiment, the original length H3 of the shock absorbing member 200a before being pressed is greater than the protruding length H4 of the positioning post 400a protruding to the stopping portion 500a relative to the housing 30a, and the difference between the original length H3 of the shock absorbing member 200a and the protruding length H4 of the positioning post 400a is substantially seven percent of the protruding length H4 of the positioning post 400 a.

Specifically, in the rack vibration test, when the real group and the test group both bear the weight of 16 kg for the load bearing assembly 10a and include four shock absorbing members 200a, the first peak is generated at 14 hz and the acceleration load is 2.31 times the gravitational acceleration. The first peak occurs at 21 hz and an acceleration load of 2.92 times the gravitational acceleration when the real set is the load bearing member 10a bearing a weight of 16 kg and comprises six shock absorbers 200a and the test set is the load bearing member 10 bearing a weight of 10.7 kg and comprises four shock absorbers 200 a.

However, the present invention is not limited to the degree to which the shock absorbing members 200a are compressed. In other embodiments, the difference between the original length of the shock absorbing member when not pressed and the protruding length of the positioning post is greater than or less than seven percent of the protruding length of the positioning post.

According to the bearing assembly disclosed in the above embodiment, since the plate body is fixed to the housing of the electronic device through the shock absorbing member and the locking member, and the shock absorbing member is in a compressed state, the shock absorbing member clamped between the housing and the locking member can effectively absorb the shock transmitted to the housing of the electronic device through the locking member. Therefore, the vibration of the shell of the electronic device can be effectively reduced.

In addition, because the plate body is fixed on the shell of the electronic device through the shock absorbing piece, the positioning column and the locking piece, and the shock absorbing piece is in a pressed state, the shock absorbing piece clamped between one side of the locking piece and the shell can effectively absorb the shock transmitted to the shell of the electronic device through the locking piece and the positioning column. Therefore, the vibration of the shell of the electronic device can be effectively reduced.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the technique of the present invention is applicable to an in-vehicle device such as a self-driving, an electric vehicle, or a semi-self driving, etc.
