Abstract
A mounting apparatus includes a bracket for receiving a storage device, two latching members pivotally fixed to the bracket, and an elastic member connected with the latching members. The bracket includes a sidewall defining two through holes therein, and each of the latching members includes a latching protrusion to extend through a corresponding through hole of the bracket for fixing the storage device. The elastic member connects the latching members and allows one of the latching members to simultaneously move whilst the other of the latching members is manipulated.
Claims17
A mounting apparatus for a storage device, the mounting apparatus comprising:
- a bracket configured for receiving the storage device, the bracket comprising a sidewall defining two through holes therein;
- two latching members pivotally fixed to the bracket, each of the latching members comprising a latching protrusion to extend through a corresponding through hole of the bracket for fixing the storage device;
- and
- an elastic member connecting the latching members in a manner so as to allow one of the latching members to simultaneously move whilst the other of the latching members is manipulated.
A mounting apparatus for a storage device, the mounting apparatus comprising:
- a bracket configured for receiving the storage device, the bracket comprising a sidewall defining two through holes therein;
- and
- two connected latching members pivotally fixed to the bracket, each of the latching members comprising a securing portion slanted outwardly, a latching protrusion formed on the securing portion to extend through a corresponding through hole of the bracket for engaging the storage device.
A storage device assembly comprising:
- a bracket defining a receiving cavity therein and including a bracket wall;
- a storage device removably received in the receiving cavity and defining a pair of mounting holes therein;
- and
- a pair of latching members pivotably attached to the bracket wall, each of the latching members including a latch protrusion, and being pivotable between a locked position and an unlocked position, the locked position being where the latch protrusion extends through the bracket wall into a corresponding one of the mounting holes so as to latch the storage device in the bracket, the unlocked position being where the latch protrusion disengages from the corresponding one of the mounting holes, the latching members being interconnected in such a manner that upon pivoting of one of the latching members, the other of the latching members is driven to pivot by the one of the latching members.
