DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0023] In order to make the objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the specific embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this patent, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0024] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, in this embodiment, the present invention provides an anti-tipping server chassis, which includes a chassis 1. Rotating plates 3 are provided on both sides of the chassis 1. The upper end of the rotating plate 3 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the chassis 1, and a first counterweight assembly 4 is provided at the lower end of the rotating plate 3. A base 8 is provided at the lower end of the chassis 1. A second counterweight assembly 10 is provided between the inner side of the lower end of the rotating plate 3 and the base 8. The chassis 1 can rotate around the upper end of the rotating plate 3 to an inclined state, and the first counterweight assembly 4 can keep the rotating plate 3 in a vertical state. Specifically, the first counterweight assembly 4 can be set as a counterweight bar, and the second counterweight assembly 10 can be set as a sandbag. The chassis 1 and the rotating plate 3 are connected through a mounting seat 2. The mounting seat 2 is provided on both side surfaces of the chassis 1, and the upper end of the rotating plate 3 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 2. The chassis 1 can rotate around the mounting seat 2 to an inclined state.

[0025] The base 8 and the second counterweight assembly 10 are mainly connected through a slidable slide bar 7. Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the base 8 is slidably provided with a slide bar 7. One end of the second counterweight assembly 10 is connected to the slide bar 7, and the slide bar 7 can move horizontally along the base 8. To realize the sliding of the slide bar 7, a horizontally arranged chute 6 is formed on the base 8, and the slide bar 7 is slidably arranged in the chute 6, and the slide bar 7 can move horizontally along the chute 6. And the second counterweight assembly 10 is slidably connected to the slide bar 7. Specifically, one end of the second counterweight assembly 10 is fixedly connected with a rope buckle 9, and the rope buckle 9 is sleeved on the slide bar 7. The second counterweight assembly 10 is connected to the slide bar 7 through the rope buckle 9. Since both sides of the second counterweight assembly 10 are exposed outside the base 8, in order to support the second counterweight assembly 10, cross plates 5 are provided on both sides of the base 8. One end of the cross plate 5 is fixed to the side surface of the base 8 and the cross plate 5 is horizontally arranged. The second counterweight assembly 10 is located on the upper end surface of the cross plate 5, and the cross plate 5 plays a role in supporting the second counterweight assembly 10.

[0026] To further enhance the impact resistance of the chassis 1, the chassis 1 includes a first housing 14 and a second housing 11 that are sleeved. A first strengthening layer 16 is provided on the outer surface of the first housing 14, and a second strengthening layer 15 is provided on the inner surface of the first housing 14. Among them, the first strengthening layer 16 is an alloy layer. Specifically, tungsten carbide material can be selected. The second strengthening layer 15 is a composite material layer. Specifically, high-impact polystyrene material added with micron-sized rubber particles can be selected. Of course, in addition to using tungsten carbide and high-impact polystyrene added with micron-sized rubber particles for the first strengthening layer 16 and the second strengthening layer 15, other alloy materials and composite materials can also be selected. This application does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0027] A support assembly 13 is further provided between the first housing 14 and the second housing 11. One side of the support assembly 13 is fixed to the second housing 11 and the other side of the support assembly 13 is in contact with the first housing 14. A first elastic assembly 12 is provided between the support assembly 13 and the second housing 11. Second elastic components are adhesively bonded to the surfaces of the second housing 11 and the support assembly 13, and the second elastic components are arranged on both sides of the first elastic assembly 12. The second elastic components can play a damping role. Specifically, as shown in the figure, the support assembly 13 can be arranged as an arc-shaped plate, the first elastic assembly 12 can be arranged as a spring, and the second elastic components can be arranged as damping strips.

[0028] As Figure 2 shown, the working principle of this anti-tipping server chassis is as follows:

[0029] When the present invention is in use, both sides of the chassis 1 are connected to the rotating plate 3 through the mounting seats 2. As Figure 2 shown, when the chassis 1 tilts to one side, the first counterweight assembly 4 fixed to the bottom end of the rotating plate 3 has a relatively heavy weight. Therefore, the rotating plate 3 can be continuously inclined to the vertical state under the action of gravity, that is, when the chassis 1 tilts, the rotating plate 3 rotates around the mounting seat 2; a second counterweight assembly 10 is installed inside the rotating plate 3. One end of the second counterweight assembly 10 connected to the rotating plate 3 also moves with it when the rotating plate 3 rotates. And when the chassis 1 tilts, the self-gravity of the second counterweight assembly 10 drives it to slide downward along the cross plate 5 on the chassis 8. The sliding rod 7 connected to the other end of the second counterweight assembly 10 continuously moves outward along the chute 6 opened on the base 8. The second counterweight assembly 10 is connected to the rotating plate 3 and can, together with the first counterweight assembly 4, increase the bottom weight of the rotating plate 3 to make it tend to the vertical state and keep it in a vertical state when the chassis 1 rotates. When the chassis 1 continuously tilts, the rotating plate 3 continuously remains vertical and the second counterweight assembly 10 continuously slides down along the cross plate 5 and falls to the ground. After the chassis 1 tilts to a certain angle, the second counterweight assembly 10 falls to the ground and the bottom end of the rotating plate 3 contacts the ground. A triangle is formed among the ground, the chassis 1 and the rotating plate 3, which can keep the chassis 1 in an inclined state and prevent it from continuously tipping over and being damaged.

[0030] To further increase the impact resistance of the housing 1 of the chassis, the chassis 1 is divided into two layers, namely the first housing 14 and the second housing 11. A first strengthening layer 16 is provided on the surface of the first housing 14. The first strengthening layer 16 made of tungsten carbide is sprayed and then infiltrated into the surface layer of the first housing 14 to form an alloyed surface strengthening layer, which can improve the hardness and strength of the first housing 14. Moreover, a second strengthening layer 15 made of high-impact polystyrene is provided between the first housing 14 and the second housing 11. The second strengthening layer 15 has good impact resistance and dimensional stability. The micron-sized rubber particles added inside the second strengthening layer 15 are connected to the polystyrene through grafting. When impacted, the stress at the tip of the crack propagation will be released by the relatively soft rubber particles, so the crack propagation is hindered and the impact resistance is improved. The second strengthening layer 15 is located inside the support assembly 13. The support assembly 13 is fixed on the surface of the second housing 11 and the other side of the support assembly 13 is in contact with the first housing 14. Several first elastic components 12 are installed between the support assembly 13 and the second housing 11. When an external impact acts on the first housing 14 and causes the first housing 14 to deform, it will generate a squeezing force on the inner support assembly 13. After the support assembly 13 is squeezed and deformed, the support assembly 13 will squeeze the first elastic components 12 between the support assembly 13 and the second housing 11. The first elastic components 12 are compressed by the force. The compressed first elastic components 12 will give the support assembly 13 an outward acting force, that is, give the first housing 14 an outward acting force to partially offset the force acting on the first housing 14, thereby weakening the impact on the first housing 14. The overall anti-deformation ability of the chassis 1 can be improved through the cooperation of the first housing 14, the second housing 11, the second strengthening layer 15, etc.

[0031] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0032] (1) The chassis can be kept in an inclined state to avoid continuous toppling and crashing. The rotation plate, the first counterweight assembly and the second counterweight assembly can be used in cooperation to avoid the chassis crashing after toppling.

[0033] (2) The overall anti-deformation ability of the chassis can be improved through the cooperation of the first housing, the second housing, the second strengthening layer, etc.

[0034] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art. The general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to these embodiments shown herein, but will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
