BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] 1) Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention provides a face plate bracket of a computer rack assembled for shelving electronic equipments, more specifically, a face plate bracket, exclusively applied onto an aluminum extruded machine rack frame, being specially designed to be able to press on the aluminum extruded machine rack frame post and to be screwed for locking, thereby to fully facilitate the erection of the electronic equipments such as a computer.
[0003] 2) Description of the Prior Art
[0004] Accordingly, the industrial computer (or the related electronic) equipments are more advanced products with higher price as well; in order to maintain their useful life and to avoid too much dust, the industrial computer equipment are usually installed in an enclosed machine rack; most of the conventional machine racks are customer-made case bodies with divisions therein for placing the electronic equipments; however, the divisions are assembled either by nailing or by welding according to the different materials; the process thereof is very inconvenient and that is the main shortcoming of the conventional machine rack.
[0005] The inventor of the present invention, engaged in the related field for a long time and truly understands the difficulty of the said industrial, based on the rich experience, after many developments, experiments, deliberated researches and designs, finally culminated in aluminum extruded joints and frame posts to be assembled for a machine rack body and which is disposed with a special face plate bracket to be directly placed inside the frame body by means of screws; the assembly of the present invention is more convenient and faster than the conventional ones.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0006] The primary objective of the present invention is to dispose a face plate bracket in the form of a long plate on one side of a frame post of an aluminum extruded machine rack; round (or oval) lock holes arranged at a certain interval are disposed on the plate body; the outer lateral end thereof is disposed with a bended portion in a n-shape; one side is extensively disposed with a right-angle bended edge; the bended edge of the face plate bracket is pressed and placed on the inner lateral rim of the frame post; then the convex bended portion in a n-shape is used as a support to cooperate with an expansion rod bracket, thereby to erect the electronic equipments such as a computer.
[0007] To enable a further understanding of the contents of the present invention, the brief description of the drawings below is followed by the detailed description of the preferred embodiment.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0008] FIG. 1 is a drawing of the exemplary embodiment of the structure of the present invention.
[0009] FIG. 2 is a drawing of the assembled structure of the present invention.
[0010] FIG. 3 is a bird's-eye view drawing of the assembled structure of the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0011] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, the face plate bracket (10) disposed in the present invention is in the form of a long plate body; the section thereof mainly has a right-angle bended edge (12) extending on one side, bending reversely and back again to form a bended portion in a n-shape (11); round or oval lock holes (13) in a staggered arrangement are disposed at a certain interval on the bended portion (11) and the right-angle bended edge (12) of the face plate bracket (10).
[0012] Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the presenting invention is assembled on the inner side of an aluminum extruded frame post (20) of the machine rack; wherein, the vertical aluminum frame post (20) has a convex portion (21) of a long concave slot (22) disposed on one side of the main square frame; the right-angle bended edge (12) of the face plate bracket (10) attaches the opposite lateral surface of the convex portion (21) of the frame post (20); between the opposite and bended portions (11) of two face plate brackets (10), screws and nuts are used to fixedly lock an expansion rod bracket (30); thereby, electronic assembling members such as a main set can be erected between the expansion rod brackets (30) on two sides of the machine rack and that makes the assembly of all the members very convenient.
[0013] Furthermore, the design of the bended portion in a .PI.-shape (11) projecting on the said face plate bracket (10) has lock holes (13) disposed on both sides; therefore, any side (or both sides) of the said bended portion (11) can be screwed with related members thereon and that is the main feature of the present invention.
[0014] The present invention possesses special ideas of particularly making the right-angle bended edge of the face plate bracket a consecutive bending structure bending reversely and back again, to be screwed onto the aluminum frame post of the machine rack by cooperating with an expansion rod bracket for very fast erecting the electronic parts such as a main set; the application is more convenient that the conventional structure, the position can be adjusted freely up and down, the space variation is more and suitable for all the factories to make free space utilization; that is the greatest advantage of the present invention.
[0015] It is of course to be understood that the embodiment described herein is merely illustrative of the principles of the invention and that a wide variety of modifications thereto may be effected by persons skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the following claims. |
