ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a shock-proof device of an external hard disk driver box suitable for personal computer or notebook computer. The damage of hard disk within the shockproof device of the present invention due to shock and vibration can be prevented and the hard disk will not be destroyed.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
As shown in
FIG. 3
, a prior art hard disk driver is illustrated. A hard disk A
2
and a header A
3
are installed in a hard disk A. In general, as it is not used, the hard disk A
2
is in a still condition. The header A
3
stops on the hard disk piece A
2
and steadily located thereon. When using the hard disk driver, the motor within the hard disk A will drive the hard disk piece A
2
to rotate with a high speed. By the high speed rotation of the hard disk piece A
2
, an air flow is formed within the hard disk A. The air flow causes the header A
3
to float away from the surface of the hard disk piece A
2
. By magnetic induction, the data recorded on the hard disk piece A
2
is converted into signals by the header A
3
, and then the signal is transferred to a memory or arithmetic operator. Therefore, as the hard disk piece A
2
is operated, it the hard disk A shocks or vibrates, the float of the header A will be interrupted or even be destroyed. Therefore, it is possible that the header A
3
impacts or contacts the surface of the hard disk piece A
2
so as to induce that the surface of the hard disk piece A
2
is scraped or destroyed. Thus, the data recorded on the area can not be read or written again.
Furthermore, as the structure of the prior art external hard disk driver box shown in
FIGS. 4 and 5
, the hard disk driver is formed by a hard disk A, a seat B and an upper cover C. The hard disk A is placed within the seat B. The connecting port B
1
of the hard disk A and the connecting port B
2
of the seat B are connected by a signal bank wire A
11
respectively. The power connecting portion at the left side of the connecting port B
1
is connected to a power receptacle B
2
at the rear edge of seat B, and then the upper cover C covers the seat B. However, the general external hard disk driver box has no protection to the hard disk A within the box so as to prevent a shock or vibration. Consequently, such kind of hard disk driver is only located motionless. It can not be carried out as desired.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a shock-proof device of an external hard disk driver box suitable for personal computer or notebook computer. The shock-proof device has a high capacity memory which is replaceable as pleasure. The damage of hard disk within the shock-proof device of the present invention due to shock and vibration can be prevented and the hard disk will not be destroyed. A shock-proof device of an external hard disk driver box comprises an upper cover, a hard disk and a seat. The hard disk is placed in the seat and is connected to the connecting ports and power receptacle at the rear edge of the seat by a signal bank wire and a power wire for being used externally. The periphery of the hard disk is installed with fixing block and the upper and lower surfaces of the hard disk and fixing block are disposed with a plurality of soft protecting pads.
The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawing.
