Abstract
A bracket device includes a sidewall, at least one mounting member, an elastic member, and a fastening member is adjacent to the sidewall. The at least one mounting member is connected to the base. The fastening member is movably mounted on the sidewall, includes an engaging structure, can stay in a first state responsive to the elastic force provided by the elastic member, and can be switched from the first state to a second state by operation. The engaging structure of the fastening member is configured to engage with or be mounted to a target member.
Claims20
A bracket device, comprising:
- a sidewall;
- a base adjacent to the sidewall;
- at least one mounting member connected to the base;
- an elastic member;
- and
- a fastening member movably mounted on the sidewall and extending longitudinally beyond the base therefrom, wherein the fastening member includes an engaging structure, and the fastening member is configured to stay in a first state responsive to an elastic force provided by the elastic member;
- wherein the fastening member is switchable from the first state to a second state by deflection of the elastic member;
- wherein the engaging structure of the fastening member is configured for retentively engaging a target member projecting thereto from an object external to the bracket device.
A bracket device adapted to be mounted to a slide rail assembly which includes a first rail and a second rail displaceable with respect to each other, the bracket device comprising:
- a sidewall mountable to the first rail of the slide rail assembly;
- a base adjacent to the sidewall;
- at least one mounting member connected to the base;
- an elastic member;
- and
- a fastening member movably mounted on the sidewall and extending longitudinally beyond the base therefrom, wherein the fastening member includes an engaging structure, and the fastening member stays in a predetermined state responsive to an elastic force provided by the elastic member;
- wherein the engaging structure of the fastening member is retentively mountable by a target member projecting thereto from an object external to the bracket device.
A bracket device adapted for mounting a slide rail assembly, wherein the slide rail assembly includes a first rail mountable to a post of a rack via the bracket device and a second rail mountable with an object, the second rail is displaceable with respect to the first rail, and the post has a plurality of post holes, the bracket device comprising:
- a sidewall;
- a base adjacent to the sidewall;
- at least one mounting member connected to the base, wherein the at least one mounting member is configured to extend through one of the post holes of the post;
- an elastic member;
- and
- a fastening member movably mounted on the sidewall and extending longitudinally beyond the base therefrom, wherein the fastening member includes a fastening portion and an engaging structure, and the fastening member is configured to stay in a first state responsive to an elastic force provided by the elastic member, in order to lock the fastening portion to the post;
- wherein the fastening member is switchable from the first state to a second state by deflection of the elastic member;
- wherein when the second rail is at a retracted position with respect to the first rail and the fastening member is in the first state, the engaging structure of the fastening member is retentively engageable by an engaging member projecting thereto from the object.
