Abstract

A hard disk carrier includes a receiving frame, a plane, and an electromagnetic shielding module. The receiving frame is used to hold a hard disk. The electromagnetic shielding module is mounted between the receiving frame and the plane. The electromagnetic shielding module defines a plurality of openings through the opposite ends. The edge of each opening extending outward from the surface and forming a cylinder peripheral wall, each opening and the peripheral wall corresponding to the opening forming a waveguide.

Claims

1. A hard disk carrier, comprising:

a receiving frame configured to hold a hard disk;

a panel; and

an electromagnetic shielding module mounted between the receiving frame and the plane, wherein the electromagnetic shielding module defines a plurality of openings therethrough, an edge of each opening extends outward from the surface forming a peripheral wall, each opening and the peripheral wall corresponding to the opening form a waveguide.

2. The hard disk carrier of claim 1, wherein the electromagnetic shielding module comprises a main portion and a plurality of extending portions, the main portion is a rectangular plate, the main portion defines two first connecting holes through the opposite ends thereof, and the plurality of extending portions are extended outward from the edges of the main portion in the same direction.

3. The hard disk carrier of claim 2, wherein the main portion and the extending portions of the electromagnetic shielding module are made by integral modeling.

4. The hard disk carrier of claim 2, wherein the main portion comprises a first surface and a second surface, the peripheral wall is extended outward from the first surface, the extending portions are extended outward from the second surface.

5. The hard disk carrier of claim 4, wherein the receiving frame is connected to the first surface of the electromagnetic shielding module and forms an U shape, together with the electromagnetic shielding module.

6. The hard disk carrier of claim 4, wherein the receiving frame defines two second connecting holes through the opposite ends, and the second connecting holes correspond to the first connecting holes of the electromagnetic shielding module.

7. The hard disk carrier of claim 6, wherein the panel defines two third connecting holes through different ends thereof, the third connecting holes correspond to the first connecting holes of the electromagnetic shielding module, and the panel attached to the extending portions of the electromagnetic shielding module.

8. The hard disk carrier of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of openings is circular.

9. The hard disk carrier of claim 1, wherein the peripheral wall of each opening is cylinder.
