  • Patent number: 11755077
    Abstract: The invention discloses a buckle ring device for a memory slot. A memory module is able to be inserted into the memory slot. The memory slot is provided at two sides thereof with a seat, respectively. A clamp structure is pivotally connected to an inside of the seat. Two sides of the memory module inserted in the memory slot are clamped by the clamp structures. When the buckle ring device is assembled on the seat of the memory slot, the seat and the clamp structures can be used for constraining the displacement of the buckle ring device in XYZ axis directions, resulting in strengthening the clamping of the clamp structures to the memory module by the buckle ring device.

  • Patent number: 11239607
    Abstract: A fastening device for expansion cards that is capable of connecting to a slot on a normal motherboard and fastening an expansion card in the slot is disclosed. The fastening device includes a top pressing unit and two side fastening units, wherein the two side fastening units are connected to two ends of the top pressing unit, respectively, and each side fastening unit is provided with an opening. When two clip units disposed on the two ends of the slot pass through the openings of the two side fixing units respectively, the top pressing unit presses the top edge of the expansion card inserted into the slot and the two side fastening units respectively press and fasten the two clip units so as to restrain the clip units from unlocking and to prevent the expansion card from becoming loose in the slot.

  • Patent number: 11240907
    Abstract: The invention provides a data storage device comprising a shell, a main circuit board, and an external connector. The shell comprises a plurality of vents. The main circuit board is placed in the shell, and covered by a fire protection material. The main circuit board is provided with a controller and a plurality of flash memory elements. The external connector is disposed outside the shell. When the data storage device is in a fire scene, the flash memory elements on the main circuit board can be avoided to be burned since the fire protection material covers the main circuit board. Further, the data storage device has a better heat dissipation and convection effect via the vents of the shell, such that the data storage device can cool down quickly, and thereby the integrity of data storage can ensured.

  • Patent number: 9982462
    Abstract: A release structure of a smart lock includes a circuit unit, a drive unit, and a release element. The circuit unit and the drive unit are placed in a housing, and the drive unit is electrically connected to the circuit unit. The drive unit includes at least one push arm pivotally connected to a rotation pivot and enclosing the same. The release element is placed on the rotation pivot and includes at least one flexible arm placed corresponding to the push arm. The push arm is driven by the drive unit to rotatably contact the at least one flexible arm and cross it, so that the drive unit becomes idle. Accordingly, components in the drive unit are prevented from damages, and a lifespan of the smart lock is prolonged.
