Hard disk drive holder and electronic equipment employing the same

1. A hard disk drive holder, comprising:

at least one handling assembly, comprising:

a handle, comprising a holding portion and two extending portions for receiving a hard disk drive, each of the extending portions comprising a convex block protruding outwardly from an outer surface of the extending portions; and

a pair of handle seats, each of the handle seats comprising a housing cavity for movably receiving one of the two extending portions and a spring clip, wherein the spring clip comprises a connecting end and a free end, the connecting end comprising a first stopper portion protruding inwardly to the housing cavity, the free end comprising a second stopper portion protruding inwardly to the housing cavity and a hook portion protruding outwardly from the spring clip, and the convex block of the handle is movable between the first stopper portion and the second stopper portion to limit movement range of the handle; and

a bracket, comprising a pair of sidewalls and each of the sidewalls being punched to form at least one supporting arm perpendicular to the corresponding sidewalls to support the at least one handling assembly;

wherein when the hard disk drive is pushed to move into the bracket along the corresponding supporting arms, the convex blocks resist the second stopper portions and urge the spring clips to latch the hook portions into a latching grooves;

when the hard disk drive is pulled out from the bracket along the corresponding supporting arms, the convex blocks move away from the second stopper portions, and the spring clips are deformed inwardly to the housing cavities, causing the hook portions to disengage from the latching grooves.

2. The hard disk drive holder as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the handle further comprises a pair of projections disposed on two opposite edges of the extending portion, and each of the handle seats defines a pair of first grooves and a pair of second grooves communicating with the housing cavity, wherein when the hard disk drive is pulled out or pushed in, the projections are received in the first grooves or the second grooves, respectively.

3. The hard disk drive holder as claimed in claim 2 , wherein each of the projections is in a substantially arc shape.

4. The hard disk drive holder as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the handle further comprises a pair of arcuate openings corresponding to the pair of projections to enhance the flexibility of the projections.

5. The hard disk drive holder as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the distance between the first grooves and the second grooves is equal to that between the first stopper portion and the second stopper portion.

6. The hard disk drive holder as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the convex block is integrally formed with the extending portion.

7. An electronic equipment, comprising:

at least one hard disk drive; and

a hard disk drive holder, comprising:

at least one handling assembly, comprising:

a handle, comprising a holding portion and two extending portions for receiving the hard disk drive, each of the extending portions comprising a convex block protruding outwardly from an outer surface thereof; and

a pair of handle seats, each of the handle seats comprising a housing cavity for movably receiving one of the two extending portions and a spring clip, wherein the spring clip comprises a connecting end and a free end, the connecting end comprising

a first stopper portion protruding inwardly to the housing cavity, the free end comprising a second stopper portion protruding inwardly to the housing cavity and a hook portion protruding outwardly from the spring clip, and the convex block of the handle is movable between the first stopper portion and the second stopper portion to limit the movement range of the handle; and

a bracket, comprising a pair of sidewalls and each of the sidewalls being punched to form at least one supporting arm perpendicular to the corresponding sidewalls to support the at least one handling assembly;

wherein when the hard disk drive is pushed to move into the bracket along the corresponding supporting arms, the convex blocks resist the second stopper portions and urge the spring clips to latch the hook portions into a latching grooves;

when the hard disk drive is pulled out from the bracket along the corresponding supporting arms, the convex blocks move away from the second stopper portions, and the spring clips are deformed inwardly to the housing cavities, thereby the hook portions disengage from the latching grooves.

8. The electronic equipment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the handle further comprises a pair of projections disposed on two opposite edges of the extending portion, and each of the handle seats defines a pair of first grooves and a pair of second grooves communicating with the housing cavity, wherein when the hard disk drive is pulled out or pushed in, the projections are received in the first grooves or the second grooves, respectively.

9. The electronic equipment as claimed in claim 8 , wherein each of the projections is in a substantially arc shape.

10. The electronic equipment as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the handle further comprises a pair of arcuate openings corresponding to the pair of projections to enhance the flexibility of the projections.

11. The electronic equipment as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the distance between the first grooves and the second grooves is equal to that between the first stopper portion and the second stopper portion.

12. The electronic equipment as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the convex block is integrally formed with the extending portion.
