DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The technical solutions of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with specific embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0033] It should also be understood that the terms used in the specification of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application. As used in the specification and claims of the present application, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0034] It should be further understood that the term "and / or" as used in the specification and claims of the present application means any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations thereof, and includes these combinations.

[0035] The embodiment of the present application provides a PCIE card placing and fixing structure for a 1U server, and the present application is only designed for the structure of the 1U server on the market. Since the 1U server has a standard size, the height thereof is limited, and currently, two PCIE cards cannot be placed up and down in the height direction. The reason is that the Riser module support is not reasonably designed. If two PCIE cards are directly placed up and down, the bending part of the PCIE card support (used for fixing the PCIE card) will form an interference, and the interference position will occupy the space in the height direction, so that the height of the two PCIE cards placed in this way exceeds the height of the 1U server. Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present application is designed. The present application will be introduced through specific embodiments.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 A PCIE card placing and fixing structure for a 1U server, comprising a Riser module support, a PCIE card support 4 and a PCIE card connector 2, the PCIE card support 4 is used for fixing a PCIE card 100, and the PCIE card connector 2 is used for connecting the PCIE card 100. The Riser module support comprises a support main body 1 and an end fixed frame 3 fixedly connected to one end of the support main body 1, and the support main body 1 is configured to be capable of installing two PCIE cards 100 in an upper installation area 14 and a lower installation area 15 in the up-down direction; the PCIE card support 4 is provided with a bending part 41 used for connecting the end fixed frame 3, the bending part 41 of the PCIE card support 4 corresponding to the PCIE card 100 installed in the upper installation area 14 is opposite to the left-right direction of the bending part 41 of the PCIE card support 4 corresponding to the PCIE card installed in the lower installation area 15, and the PCIE card 100 installed in the upper installation area 14 is arranged in front of the PCIE card 100 installed in the lower installation area 15.

[0037] As shown in Figure 2 The support main body 1 is configured to be the upper installation area 14 and the lower installation area 15, the upper installation area 14 can install one PCIE card 100, and the lower installation area 15 can install one PCIE card 100, so as to realize the installation of two PCIE cards 100 in the height direction. The reason why two PCIE cards 100 can be installed is that, as shown in Figure 5 After installation, the bending part 41 of the PCIE card support 4 corresponding to the PCIE card 100 installed in the upper installation area 14 is opposite to the left-right direction of the bending part 41 of the PCIE card support 4 corresponding to the PCIE card 100 installed in the lower installation area 15, and as shown in Figure 3As shown, the PCIE card 100 installed on the upper mounting area 14 is staggered with the PCIE card 100 installed on the lower mounting area 15, and the bending part 41 of the upper and lower PCIE cards 100 will not interfere with each other. Since the interference does not occur, the height space will not be occupied, and the height of the 1U server can be adapted after the upper and lower PCIE cards 100 are installed, thereby realizing the high density of the 1U server and greatly saving the space resources of the 1U server. If a 1U server can only install 10 PCIE cards 100 before, the present application can install 20 PCIE cards 100.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 , 3 The support body 1 divides the end fixing frame 3 into an upper end fixing area 32 and a lower end fixing area 33. The PCIE card support 4 corresponding to the PCIE card 100 in the upper mounting area 14 is fixed to the upper end fixing area 32 of the support body 1, and the PCIE card support 4 corresponding to the PCIE card 100 in the lower mounting area 15 is fixed to the lower end fixing area 33 of the support body 1. In order to meet the staggered arrangement of the PCIE card 100 installed on the upper mounting area 14 and the PCIE card 100 installed on the lower mounting area 15, a step part 31 is arranged on the end fixing frame 3. The upper area of the step part 31 is the upper end fixing area 32, and the lower area of the step part 31 is the lower end fixing area 33.

[0039] As shown in Figure 2 The support body 1 is in the shape of Z, which specifically includes a horizontal plate 11, an upper bending edge part 12 connected to the left side of the horizontal plate 11 and bent upward, and a lower bending edge part 13 connected to the right side of the horizontal plate 11 and bent downward. The upper bending edge part 12 and the upper surface of the horizontal plate 11 form the upper mounting area 14, and the lower bending edge part 13 and the lower surface of the horizontal plate 11 form the lower mounting area 15. The PCIE card connector 2 corresponding to the PCIE card 100 in the upper mounting area 14 is fixed on the upper bending edge part 12 by screws, and the PCIE card connector 2 corresponding to the PCIE card 100 in the lower mounting area 15 is fixed on the lower bending edge part 13 by screws.

[0040] As shown in Figure 4 The PCIE card connector 2 adopts a cable direct-out mode, which can avoid occupying the height direction space and facilitate the insertion and maintenance of the PCIE card 100.

[0041] In some embodiments, the horizontal plate 11 is provided with a handle 111 at one end away from the end fixing frame 3. The handle 111 facilitates the installation of the Riser module support into the 1U server.

[0042] In some embodiments, in order to avoid short circuit of the PCIE card 100 and the horizontal plate 11 directly contacting, an upper isolation piece is arranged on the upper surface of the horizontal plate 11, and a lower isolation piece is arranged on the lower surface of the horizontal plate 11, and the upper isolation piece and the lower isolation piece are made of polyester resin.

[0043] As shown in Figure 6 Figure 6 The two PCIE cards 100 are combined and installed by the placing and fixing structure, and the two PCIE cards 100 are fixed by screws.

[0044] The Riser module support is configured to be capable of installing the upper mounting area and the lower mounting area of the two PCIE cards in the up-down direction, and the left-right direction of the bending part of the PCIE card support corresponding to the two PCIE cards is opposite, and the two PCIE cards are placed in the front-rear staggered state, so that the PCIE card supports corresponding to the two PCIE cards do not interfere with each other, the problem of insufficient height space for placing two PCIE cards caused by interference is completely avoided, the purpose of placing two PCIE cards in the height direction is achieved, and the high density of the 1U server is further realized, and the space resource is greatly saved.

[0045] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this, any skilled person in the art can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the present application, and these modifications or replacements should be covered in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.​
