1. Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to a disk drive mounting apparatus.
2. Description of Related Art
An electronic device, such as a computer or server, usually includes disk drives, such as hard disk drives, compact disk read-only memory (CD-ROM) drives, and the like. However, the installation of these disk drives in the electronic device typically involves use of screws to attach the disk drives to drive brackets of the electronic device, which is complicated and labor-intensive.
Many aspects of the embodiments can be better understood with references to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the embodiments. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
The present disclosure, including the accompanying drawings, is illustrated by way of examples and not by way of limitation. It should be noted that references to “an” or “one” embodiment in this disclosure are not necessarily to the same embodiment, and such references mean at least one.
Referring to
The tray 30 is box-shaped, and includes a rectangular base panel 32, two first side panels 34 substantially perpendicularly extending up from opposite ends of the base panel 32, and two second side panels 36 substantially perpendicularly extending up from opposite sides of the base panel 32. Two flexible elongated tongues 342 are respectively formed on the first side panels 34. A hook 344 protrudes from a distal end of each tongue 342, corresponding to the notch 16 of a corresponding sidewall 15 of the receiving chamber 14. A through hole 362 is defined in one of the second side panels 36, and two tabs 364 extend from the other second side panel 36. Two pivot holes 366 are respectively defined in the tabs 364. A block 368 is formed on the second side panel 36, adjacent to the through hole 362 and opposite to the other second side panel 36. Two grips 38 are formed on the other second side panel 36, respectively adjacent to the first side panels 34.
The retaining member 50 is a long strip with a first end 51 and a second end 56. Two pivot pins 52 are respectively formed at opposite sides of a first end 51 of the retaining member 50. A guide portion 54 with a number of flexible tabs 55, is formed at a side of the retaining member 50, adjacent to the pivot pins 52.
