[0015] To achieve the above objectives, a third aspect of the present invention provides a data center, which includes a UPS as described in any one of the above technical solutions.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] (1) The cabinet includes a first cabinet body and a second cabinet body. The first cabinet body is used to accommodate the electrical module. The second cabinet body is detachably fixed, abutted, and aligned with the first cabinet body along a first direction. Therefore, the dimension of the first cabinet body along the first direction can be configured to be the depth dimension of a conventional UPS, and the dimension of the second cabinet body along the first direction can be configured to be the difference between the depth dimensions of the data cabinet in the data center and the conventional UPS. In this way, when the UPS needs to be included in the data center, the second cabinet body is attached to the first cabinet body, which can ensure that the UPS cabinet and the data cabinet have the same depth dimension and make the data center have a better appearance. When the UPS is no longer needed in the data center, the second cabinet body is removed from the first cabinet body, so that the cost can be maintained at a lower level when the UPS is sold separately.
[0018] (2) After the second cabinet is fixed to the first cabinet, the second cavity defined by the second cabinet is connected to the first cavity, thereby expanding the size of the cabinet cavity and being suitable for expanding the cabinet function through the second cavity.
[0019] (3) Both the first cabinet and the second cabinet include a frame and a plurality of cabinet panels, which improves the structural strength of the cabinet; the first cabinet does not have a rear panel, and the second cabinet does not have a front panel, thereby enabling the second cavity to communicate with the first cavity.
[0020] (4) When the first cabinet is connected to the second cabinet and the second cavity is connected to the first cavity, the support structure is configured to be able to slide relative to the first frame and locked to the first frame through the first locking structure after sliding. The distance between the electrical module and the front panel can be adjusted, which is suitable for resolving the contradiction between the safety requirements and heat dissipation performance in conventional UPS.
[0021] Specifically, in conventional UPS, due to factors such as power density and small size, it is difficult to simultaneously meet both safety regulations and heat dissipation performance. Since the fan air inlet and connection terminals of a UPS module are usually arranged relative to each other, if the UPS module is placed close to the front panel within a given volume, the air inlet distance will be short and the heat dissipation performance will be poor. If the UPS module is placed close to the rear panel, it will not meet safety regulations. However, when a UPS is installed in a data center, due to the presence of a second cabinet and a second cavity, the rear panel of the entire cabinet is a certain distance away from the first cavity. Therefore, by configuring the support structure to slide relative to the first frame, the electrical module can be moved along the first direction to be close to the second cabinet. This can both increase the fan air inlet distance of the UPS module and thus enhance heat dissipation performance while also meeting safety regulations.
[0022] (5) The first frame is fixedly connected with a hanging assembly and a guide rail provided with a slide groove, which not only allows the support structure to be hung on the first frame to be supported by it, but also can guide the sliding of the support structure; the support structure is provided with a positioning beam, which prompts it to slide into place when its two ends respectively abut the first frame, and the positioning beam is locked to the first frame through a first locking mechanism configured as a threaded fastener, thereby achieving fixation after adjustment and high stability.
[0023] (6) The second top panel, the second left panel, and the second right panel are all configured as a movable panel group, so that the size of the second cabinet along the first direction can be fine-tuned while allowing a certain manufacturing error, thereby reducing the manufacturing accuracy requirements and costs of the second cabinet.
[0024] (7) A first locking plate and a second locking plate are provided so that the fixed plate and the movable plate can be locked in a first direction; the second locking mechanism is configured to include a screw and a nut, the screw is threadedly engaged with the fixed plate and is rotated with the axial limit of the movable plate, so that the movable door can be conveniently driven to slide relative to the fixed plate in the first direction by rotating the screw; the nut is unlocked or locked with the screw, so that the adjusted fixation can be achieved with high stability.
[0025] (8) UPS includes the aforementioned cabinet and inherits all its advantages.
[0026] (9) The second cabinet is provided with a line inlet or a line outlet. The input line or the output line of the UPS module extends to the second cavity and is led out from the line inlet or the line outlet. Therefore, the second cabinet provides a relatively spacious wiring space, making the wiring of the UPS easier.
[0027] (10) The data center adopts the aforementioned UPS and inherits all its advantages. It can better achieve the consistency of the depth dimensions of the UPS cabinet and the data cabinet, thus having a better appearance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0042] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be regarded as excluding other embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0043] In the claims, description and drawings of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, the use of terms such as "first", "second" or "third" is for the purpose of distinguishing different objects rather than for describing a specific order.
[0044] In the claims, specification and the above-mentioned drawings of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly defined, directional words such as the terms "center", "transverse", "longitudinal", "horizontal", "vertical", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "clockwise", "counterclockwise" and the like indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions and positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the specific scope of protection of the present invention.
[0045] In the claims, description and above-mentioned drawings of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly defined, the terms "fixed connection" or "fixed connection" should be understood in a broad sense, that is, any connection method without displacement relationship and relative rotation relationship between the two parties, that is, including non-detachable fixed connection, detachable fixed connection, and fixed connection through other devices or elements.
[0046] Reference Figure 1-9 The embodiment of the present invention provides a UPS 1000, which includes a cabinet 100, a plurality of UPS modules 200, a plurality of input lines and output lines. Figure 1 The UPS 1000 is described with reference to the directions shown in FIG. 1 , wherein the first direction, the second direction and the vertical direction are perpendicular to each other.
[0047] Reference first Figure 2-6 The cabinet 100 is used to install the UPS module 200 and includes a first cabinet body 110, a second cabinet body 120 and a plurality of connecting pieces 130.
[0048] The first cabinet 110 defines a first cavity for accommodating the electrical module. The second cabinet 120 defines a second cavity, which is further adapted to be removably secured to and abut against the first cabinet 110 along the first direction. After being secured to the first cabinet 110, the second cavity is configured to coincide with the orthographic projection of the first cabinet 110 along the first direction, and the second cavity communicates with the first cavity along the first direction. The plurality of connecting pieces 130 are used to connect the second cabinet 120 to the first cabinet 110 along the first direction.
[0049] Therefore, the dimension of the first cabinet 110 along the first direction is configured to be the depth dimension of a conventional UPS, and the dimension of the second cabinet 120 along the first direction is configured to be the difference between the depth dimensions of the data center's data cabinet and the conventional UPS. In this way, when the UPS needs to be added to the data center, the second cabinet 120 is attached to the first cabinet 110, ensuring that the UPS cabinet and the data cabinet have the same depth dimensions and giving the data center a better appearance. In other words, the UPS of this embodiment is suitable for inclusion in a data center due to the presence of the second cabinet 120. When the UPS is no longer needed in the data center, the second cabinet 120 can be removed from the first cabinet 110, allowing the UPS to be sold separately at a lower cost. In addition, by connecting the second cavity to the first cavity, the size of the cabinet's interior can be expanded, making it suitable for expanding the cabinet's functionality through this second cavity.
[0050] Combine Figure 2-4 、 Figure 6-7 The first cabinet 110 has a symmetrical plane perpendicular to the second direction, which includes a first frame 111, a front panel 112, a first top panel 113, a first left side panel (not shown in the figure), a first right side panel 114, two hanging components, a guide rail 116, a support structure and a first locking mechanism (not shown in the figure).
[0051] The first frame 111 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure. The front panel 112, the first top panel 113, the first left panel, and the first right panel 114 are respectively fixed to corresponding sides of the first frame 111, and the front panel 112, the first top panel 113, the first left panel, and the first right panel 114 are enclosed to collectively define the first cavity having a rectangular parallelepiped structure.
[0052] The two hanging components are symmetrically arranged about the symmetry plane, and each hanging component includes two hanging units arranged opposite to each other along the first direction. Each hanging unit includes two hanging plates 115 arranged opposite to each other vertically and fixed to the first frame 111. The two hanging plates 115 are both provided with a first sliding groove 1151 extending along the first direction.
[0053] The guide rail 116 is disposed along the first direction and has both ends fixed to the first frame 111 . The guide rail 116 is further provided with a second sliding groove 1161 extending along the first direction.
[0054] The support structure is disposed within the first cavity and is fixed vertically relative to the first frame 111 to support the UPS module 200. The support structure is also adapted to slide relative to the first frame 111 along the first direction so as to move the electrical module closer to or further away from the front panel 112, thereby effectively resolving the contradiction between safety regulations and heat dissipation performance within conventional UPSs. Specifically, when a UPS is incorporated into a data center, due to the presence of the second cabinet 120 and the second cavity, the rear panel of the entire cabinet 100 is a certain distance from the first cavity. Therefore, by configuring the support structure to be slidable relative to the first frame 111, the electrical module is moved along the first direction close to the second cabinet 120. This can both increase the air intake distance of the fan of the UPS module 200 and thereby enhance heat dissipation performance, while also meeting safety regulations.
[0055] In the specific structure, the support structure includes two support assemblies fixed to each other, a slider 118 and a positioning beam 119. The two support assemblies are symmetrically arranged about the symmetry plane, and each support assembly includes two support columns 117A and a plurality of support frames 117B. The support columns 117A are arranged vertically, and the two ends of each support column 117A are respectively hung on the two hanging pieces 115 of a hanging unit and are suitable for sliding cooperation with the first slide groove 1151 along the first direction. The support frame 117B is arranged along the first direction and its two ends are respectively fixed to the two support columns 117A of the support assembly, and a plurality of the support frames 117B are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction. The slider 118 is arranged along the first direction and fixed to the two support columns 117A of the support assembly, and is suitable for sliding cooperation with the second slide groove 1161 along the first direction. The positioning beam 119 is arranged along the first direction and fixedly connected to the two support columns 117A of the support assembly. When the support structure slides along the first direction to the first position and the second position, the two ends of the positioning beam 119 respectively abut against the first frame 111 along the first direction. Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown.
[0056] The first locking mechanism (not shown) selectively locks the support structure to the first frame 111 to allow or restrict the support structure from sliding along the first direction relative to the first frame 111. Specifically, the first locking mechanism is a threaded fastener adapted to lock the positioning beam 119 to the first frame 111 when both ends of the positioning beam 119 abut against the first frame 111.
[0057] As can be seen, the first frame 111 is fixedly connected to a hanging assembly with a sliding groove and a guide rail 116, which not only allows the support structure to be hung on the first frame 111 for support, but also guides the sliding of the support structure. The support structure is provided with a positioning beam 119, which indicates that the slide is in place when its two ends abut the first frame 111. The positioning beam 119 is locked to the first frame 111 by a first locking mechanism configured as a threaded fastener, achieving a fixed position after adjustment and high stability.
[0058] Combine Figure 8-9 The second cabinet 120 includes a second frame 121, a rear plate (not shown in the figure), a second top plate 122, a second left plate, a second right plate 123 and a second locking structure.
[0059] The second frame 121 is a rectangular parallelepiped. The rear panel, second top panel 122, second left panel, and second right panel 123 are respectively fixed to corresponding sides of the second frame 121. Together, these panels define a second rectangular parallelepiped cavity. In this embodiment, the second top panel 122 is provided with a wire inlet 1221 and a wire outlet 1222, both of which communicate with the second cavity.
[0060] In addition, after the second cabinet 120 is fixed to the first cabinet 110, the front panel 112 and the rear panel are perpendicular to the first direction and are arranged opposite to each other along the first direction, the first top panel 113 and the second top panel 122 are located in the same plane, the first left side panel and the second left side panel are located in the same plane, and the first right side panel 114 and the second right side panel 123 are located in the same plane. Figure 1 shown.
[0061] Specific reference Figure 9 In this embodiment, the second top plate 122, the second left plate, and the second right plate 123 are all configured as a movable plate assembly. The movable plate assembly includes a fixed plate 124 and a movable plate 125, both of which are arranged parallel to the first direction. The fixed plate 124 is fixed to the second frame 121, and the movable plate 125 is adapted to slide with the fixed plate 124 along the first direction. In this embodiment, a first locking plate 1241 perpendicular to the first direction is fixed to the fixed plate 124, and a second locking plate 1251 parallel to and opposite to the first locking plate 1241 along the first direction is fixed to the movable plate 125.
[0062] The second locking mechanism selectively locks the movable plate 125 to the fixed plate 124 to allow or restrict the movable plate 125 from sliding relative to the fixed plate 124 in the first direction. Specifically, the second locking mechanism includes a screw 126 and a nut 127. The screw 126 is threadedly engaged with the first locking plate 1241 about a rotation axis parallel to the first direction. The screw 126 is also rotatably connected to the second locking plate 1251 about the rotation axis and is limited in position along the first direction with the second locking plate 1251. The nut 127 is adapted to the screw 126 and is disposed between the first locking plate 1241 and the second locking plate 1251. The nut 127 also cooperates with the first locking plate 1241 or the second locking plate 1251 to restrict the screw 126 from threading with the fixed plate 124.
[0063] Therefore, the second top plate 122, the second left side plate, and the second right side plate 123 are all configured as a movable plate assembly, allowing for fine-tuning of the dimensions of the second cabinet 120 along the first direction while allowing for certain manufacturing tolerances, thereby reducing the manufacturing precision requirements and costs of the second cabinet 120. Furthermore, the second locking mechanism is configured to include a screw 126 and a nut 127. The screw 126 is threadedly engaged with the fixed plate 124 and rotatably engaged with the axially limited movable plate 125. This allows the movable door to be conveniently driven to slide along the first direction relative to the fixed plate 124 by rotating the screw 126. By unlocking or locking the nut 127 with the screw 126, the adjusted fixation is achieved, providing greater stability. It will be appreciated that while the movable plate assembly in this embodiment is only used to fine-tune the dimensions of the second cabinet 120 along the first direction, this structure can also be used for larger adjustments, allowing the second cabinet 120 to be adapted to the depth of data cabinets in data centers of different specifications and conventional UPS cabinets.
[0064] The two ends of the connecting piece 130 are detachably connected to the first frame 111 and the second frame 121 via threaded fasteners. Specifically, the connecting piece 130 is provided with a plurality of waist holes, so that the relative positions of the first frame 111 and the second frame 121 after connection can be slightly adjusted.
[0065] Combine Figure 2-4 The plurality of UPS modules 200 are installed in the first chamber of the first cabinet 110 , are spaced apart vertically, and are respectively placed on a set of support frames 117B that are symmetrical along the second direction.
[0066] The input line and the output line are electrically connected to the input end and the output end of each UPS module 200, and the input line and the output line are extended into the second cavity and lead out of the cabinet 100 through the corresponding line inlet 1221 or the line outlet 1222. Figure 5Therefore, the second cabinet 120 provides a relatively spacious wiring space, making the wiring of the UPS easier.
[0067] On this basis, this embodiment also provides a data center (not shown in the figure), which has a cold channel and includes a data cabinet and the UPS1000 of this embodiment. The data cabinet and UPS1000 are arranged closely and close to each other along the extension direction of the cold channel, and the cabinets 100 of the data cabinet and the UPS1000 are equal in size in the first direction, thereby having a better appearance.
[0068] The descriptions in the specification and embodiments are intended to explain the scope of protection of the present invention, but do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention. Modifications, equivalent substitutions, or other improvements to the embodiments of the present invention or parts of the technical features thereof that can be obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experiments based on the teachings of the present invention or the embodiments described above, combined with common knowledge, ordinary technical knowledge in the field, and / or existing technology, should all be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
