The subject matter herein generally relates to mounting of hard drive to rack, and to a locking mechanism, an electronic device structure and a server.
Hard drives are usually mounted in a rack for using, so the quick installation and removal of the hard drives are very important to the quality and the efficiency of operation and maintenance, but the structure in present results in low efficiency of mounting.
Many aspects of the disclosure can be better understood with reference 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 disclosure. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, where appropriate, reference numerals have been repeated among the different figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements. In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. Also, the description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts have been exaggerated to better illustrate details and features of the present disclosure.
The present disclosure, including the accompanying drawings, is illustrated by way of examples and not by way of limitation. Several definitions that apply throughout this disclosure will now be presented. 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”.
The term “comprising” means “including, but not necessarily limited to”; it specifically indicates open-ended inclusion or membership in a so-described combination, group, series, and the like.
Without a given definition otherwise, all terms used have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art. The terms used herein in the description of the present disclosure are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

The handle 13 is rotatably connected to the shell 20 by an axis 131, a torsion spring 132 is located on the axis 131, the torsion spring 132 is configured for rotating the handle 13 out of the shell 20 to the outer position when lever 12 unlatches the handle 13.
A compression spring 114 is connected between the pin 11 and the shell 20.
The compression spring 114 is configured for pushing the pin 11 to extend out of the shell 20. The shell 20 has a hole 26, and the pin 11 extends out of the shell 20 through the hole 26.

As shown in
The handle 13 has a first block 134, and the shell 20 has a second block 27. When pressing the lever 12 to unlatch the handle 13 and when the handle 13 rotates to the outer position, the second block 27 can block the first block 134, to limit the angle of rotation of the handle 13.
As shown in
The pin 11 has a third end 11a and a fourth end 11b, and the third end 11a and the fourth end 11b are on the opposite sides of the pin 11. The fourth end 11b is cylinder and is used for fixing the compression spring 114. The third end 11a of the pin 11 has a first latching part 111. As shown in

In summary, no matter which position (the inner position or the outer position) the handle 13 is on, the storage module 303 with the lock mechanism 100 can always be mounted on the rack 301. Especially, when the handle 13 is on the outer position, the storage module 303 can still be inserted into the rack 301, and operator can put the handle 13 back to the inner position after the mounting of the storage module 303 to the rack 301. The handle 13 on the outer position is only for grasping the storage module 303 easier, after the storage module 303 is mounted on the rack 301, the handle 13 shall be set on the inner position.

In some embodiments, the lever 12 includes a metal dome 122, the metal dome 122 has a slot 1221, the second end 13b of the handle 13 has a second block 133, the slot 1221 is used for latching the second block 133, to fix the handle 13 on the inner position.
In some embodiments, the lever 12 further includes a button 121, the button 121 is connected to the metal dome 122, and the button 121 is located outside the first storage space 25. When pressing the button 121, the metal dome 122 bends to unlatch the handle 13.
In some embodiments, the handle 13 has a hole 136, the end of the torsion spring 132 is mounted in the hole 136.
In some embodiments, the handle 13 has a pull ring 135, the pull ring 135 is used for grasping the handle 13 easy.
