[0041] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0042] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that the terms “center”, “upper”, “lower”, “left”, “right”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “inner”, “outer” and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the purpose of facilitating the description of the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application. In addition, the terms “first”, “second”, “third” are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0043] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless specifically defined and limited, the terms "mounting", "connected", "connection" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixed connection, or detachable connection, or integrally connected; it can be mechanical connection, or electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through intermediate medium, or internal communication of two elements, it can be wireless connection, or wired connection. For ordinary workers in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0044] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the application described below can be combined with each other as long as there is no conflict between them.
[0045] In multi-node servers and high-density cabinets, the utilization rate of space is getting higher and higher, resulting in limited space for structures used to unlock the cabinet, so that the installation position of the handle part or the handle part will block the socket and button of the front window of the cabinet. The current fixing method for single node and cabinet lock fixed on the cabinet is realized by hand screw, and when maintaining and assembling the server, the technician will involve using tools such as screwdriver to screw the screw. And because the handle part occupies part of the space of the cabinet or the cabinet, it makes it inconvenient for the technician to maintain and assemble the server, resulting in too complicated steps of maintenance and assembly.
[0046] In order to save labor in the related art, generally, in the case of a certain resistance, the size of the power arm and the resistance arm is controlled, so that the minimum force, such as hand pushing or pulling, can be used to realize the plugging and unplugging of the high-density connector between nodes or modules. However, for certain system scenarios, limited by system layout, only the space on both sides of the node can be arranged with labor-saving structure, but when the height of both sides of the node or module is small, only a common wrench is used, so it is impossible to achieve greater or better labor-saving effect. Therefore, at present, the labor-saving wrench is fixed at the bottom of the node, or the scheme is directly changed, and more cable interconnections are used instead of high-density connector board-to-board connection. This causes the system layout to be more chaotic, the maintenance is complicated and time-consuming, and the cost is higher.
[0047] Therefore, the present application provides a server cabinet to solve the problem of complicated steps of technicians in maintaining and assembling the server.
[0048] The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with Figures 1 to 6 .
[0049] According to the embodiments of the present application, in one aspect, the present application provides a server cabinet, which comprises a cabinet body 7, a cabinet and an unlocking mechanism.
[0050] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the cabinet 7 is internally provided with a containing cavity for mounting a machine case, and the cabinet 7 is provided with a first limiting hole 701. The machine case is detachably arranged in the containing cavity, and the machine case is provided with a second limiting hole 8 corresponding to the first limiting hole 701. Of course, the positions of the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8 can be changed by those skilled in the art according to actual conditions, and after the unlocking mechanism is installed, as long as the plug and the button of the front window of the machine case can be avoided.
[0051] Further, in the embodiment of the present application, the unlocking mechanism is rotatably arranged on the cabinet 7, and the unlocking mechanism is arranged in a movable state with the cabinet 7. For the movable state, for example, the unlocking mechanism can be rotatably connected to the cabinet 7, and the unlocking mechanism can also be detachably connected to the cabinet 7. The first part of the unlocking mechanism is located outside the cabinet 7 and the machine case, and the second part of the unlocking mechanism is located inside the cabinet 7 and the machine case.
[0052] Further, under the action of external force, the unlocking mechanism has a storage state and an unfolding state. That is, the initial position of the first part of the unlocking mechanism is the storage state. In the storage state, the first part of the unlocking mechanism is fitted with the front window of the machine case. Then in use, the first part of the unlocking mechanism needs to be changed from the storage state to the unfolding state under the action of external force, so that the first part of the unlocking mechanism is separated from the front window. Then operate from the unfolding state. After the operation is completed, the first part of the unlocking mechanism is changed from the unfolding state to the storage state, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 .
[0053] Specifically, in actual application, when the technician wants to assemble the machine case into the cabinet 7, the machine case can be pushed to a predetermined position in the cabinet 7 first. After being pushed to the position, the first limiting hole 701 is directly aligned with the second limiting hole 8, as shown in Figure 6 Under the action of external force, the first part of the unlocking mechanism is driven to rotate in the first direction by external force, so that the second part of the unlocking mechanism is inserted into the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8, connecting the cabinet 7 and the machine case together, so that the machine case cannot move in the cabinet 7, and the unlocking mechanism can lock the position of the machine case in the cabinet 7, so that the cabinet 7 and the machine case can be connected together, and then stored, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4When the technician wants to remove the case from the cabinet 7 for maintenance, the unlocking mechanism needs to be rotated in the second direction by external force, that is, reverse movement, so that the unlocking mechanism is separated from the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 After the unlocking mechanism is separated from the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8, there is no other structure between the cabinet 7 and the case to limit, so the cabinet 7 and the case can be separated.
[0054] Further, in the embodiment of the present application, the external force can be a driving force provided by an external driving device, such as a motor, a mechanical hand, a disassembling tool, etc. It can also be a driving force provided by the technician himself, that is, the technician manually operates the unlocking mechanism. For the external force provided by the external driving device, it is obvious that the operation steps of the technician can be saved, the operation process of the server in the maintenance and assembly process can be optimized, and the work efficiency can be improved. At the same time, by the technician's own operation, the size of the driving force can be changed according to the actual maintenance and assembly situation, so as to avoid damaging the unlocking structure due to excessive force. Moreover, different maintenance and assembly methods can be adopted according to the actual maintenance and assembly situation, such as cleaning operation before maintenance and assembly or recording specific operation. Thus, the specific operation of maintenance and assembly can be matched with the actual situation.
[0055] Further, for the number of the first limiting hole 701, the second limiting hole 8 and the unlocking structure, the person skilled in the art can change it according to the actual situation, and the present embodiment does not limit it, which can achieve the same technical effect.
[0056] Thus, the server is unlocked and locked through one-time operation, and the maintenance and assembly operation is more simple and convenient. In addition, no additional operation tool is needed, and the maintenance efficiency and assembly efficiency are greatly improved. Further, the unlocking mechanism is separated from the front window and is in the unfolded state when the technician needs to maintain and assemble the server. Thus, the server is unlocked and locked through one-time operation, and the maintenance and assembly operation is more simple and convenient. In addition, no additional operation tool is needed, and the maintenance efficiency and assembly efficiency are greatly improved. After the maintenance and assembly of the server are completed, the unlocking mechanism is attached to the front window of the cabinet, and the unlocking mechanism is in the storage state, so as to reduce the space occupied by the unlocking mechanism. Thus, the cabinet as a whole looks more complete and unified, and the appearance of the whole machine is improved.
[0057] In an alternative embodiment, the unlocking mechanism comprises a fixing seat 4, a driving member and a clamping member 6. Specifically, the fixing seat 4 is rotatably arranged on the cabinet 7. For example, a rotating shaft or a hinged shaft can be arranged between the fixing seat 4 and the cabinet 7, so that the fixing seat 4 is adapted to rotate along a horizontal plane, as shown in Figs. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The driving member is provided with a driving end, the driving end of the driving member is rotatably connected to the fixing seat 4 and located outside the cabinet and the cabinet, and the driving member is adapted to rotate along a vertical plane. The driving member can be a driving device such as a motor, a mechanical hand, a disassembling and assembling instrument, etc. The driving end can be a driving shaft of a motor, a gripping part of a mechanical hand or a disassembling and assembling end of a disassembling and assembling instrument. For the driving member provided as a driving device, the operation steps of the technician can be obviously saved, the operation process of the server during maintenance and assembly is optimized, and the work efficiency is improved. The driving member can also be a handle or a force arm for the technician to hold conveniently. The handle or the operating rod is connected to the fixing seat 4. In order to save the labor of the technician, the handle or the operating rod can be lengthened, and the lengthening direction of the handle or the operating rod is away from the fixing seat 4, that is, according to the principle of lever, the length of the force arm of the handle or the operating rod is increased.
[0058] Further, as shown in Figs. Figures 3 to 6As shown, the clamping member 6 is arranged on the fixing seat 4 and located in the cabinet and the case. During the driving of the driving member, the clamping member 6 is adapted to be inserted into the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8. Specifically, under the driving of the driving member, the driving member drives the fixing seat 4 to rotate, and then the fixing seat 4 can drive the clamping member 6 to move, so that the clamping member 6 is inserted into the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8, and the clamping member 6 is driven to be separated from the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8.
[0059] In the embodiment, the clamping member 6 can be arc-shaped or straight-angled and bent. The end of the clamping member 6 away from the fixing seat 4 can be inserted into the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8. Of course, the embodiment is only an example of the shape of the clamping member 6, but it is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can change it according to the actual situation, which can achieve the same technical effect.
[0060] In this way, the embodiment of the application drives the fixing seat 4 to rotate by arranging the driving member. The technician can use the driving member to drive the fixing seat 4 to rotate manually, or the technician can manually operate the driving member to drive the fixing seat 4 to rotate. In this way, the technician only needs to operate the unlocking mechanism when maintaining and assembling the server, and the unlocking mechanism can connect and separate the cabinet 7 and the case by external force, so that the unlocking and locking can be realized by one-time operation, thereby making the maintenance and assembly operation more simple and convenient. Moreover, no additional operation tool is needed, which greatly improves the maintenance efficiency and assembly efficiency.
[0061] In an alternative embodiment, the driving member is a handle assembly, one end of the handle assembly is connected with the fixing seat 4. That is, in the specific way of the technician operating the driving force, the technician can manually operate the handle assembly. By manually operating, the technician can change the size of the driving force according to the actual maintenance and assembly situation, so as to avoid damaging the unlocking structure due to excessive force. Moreover, different maintenance and assembly methods can be adopted according to the actual maintenance and assembly situation, such as cleaning operation before maintenance and assembly or recording specific operation. Thus, the specific operation of maintenance and assembly can be matched with the actual situation.
[0062] The connection between the handle assembly and the fixing seat 4 can be fixed connection or movable connection. For the fixed connection, adhesion, welding and other conventional fixed connection methods can be adopted.
[0063] In an alternative embodiment, the movable connection can be a detachable connection, i.e. the handle assembly is detachably connected with the fixed seat 4. For the detachable connection, a screw hole can be used for fixation. For example, a fixed plate can be additionally provided around the edge of the fixed seat 4, and the number of the fixed plates can be changed by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., and a screw hole is formed on the fixed plate, and another screw hole is formed on the handle assembly corresponding to the screw hole, and then the screw is sequentially inserted into the screw hole on the fixed plate and the screw hole on the handle assembly to connect the fixed seat 4 with the handle assembly. When the unlocking and locking are completed, the screw can be unscrewed in reverse to make the screw come out of the screw hole on the fixed plate and the screw hole on the handle assembly, so that the fixed seat 4 and the handle assembly are separated, and then the storage is convenient and the external space is saved. Of course, the buckle and the slot can also be used for fixation. For example, a buckle can be additionally provided around the edge of the fixed seat 4, and the number of the buckles can be changed by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., and a slot capable of cooperating with the buckle is formed on the handle assembly corresponding to the buckle, and then the buckle on the fixed seat 4 is directly inserted into the slot on the handle assembly, so that the fixed seat 4 and the handle assembly are connected. When the unlocking and locking are completed, the buckle can be pulled in reverse to make the buckle on the fixed seat 4 come out of the slot on the handle assembly, so that the fixed seat 4 and the handle assembly are separated, and then the storage is convenient and the external space is saved. Of course, the magnetic attraction can also be used for fixation. For example, a magnetic sheet can be additionally provided around the edge of the fixed seat 4, and the number of the magnetic sheets can be changed by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., and a magnetic sheet capable of attracting the magnetic sheet is formed on the handle assembly corresponding to the magnetic sheet, and then the magnetic sheet on the fixed seat 4 is directly inserted into the magnetic sheet on the handle assembly, so that the fixed seat 4 and the handle assembly are magnetically connected. When the unlocking and locking are completed, the fixed seat 4 can be pulled in reverse to make the magnetic sheet on the fixed seat 4 separate from the magnetic sheet on the handle assembly, so that the storage is convenient and the external space is saved.
[0064] Of course, the present embodiment only exemplifies the fixed connection and the detachable connection, but is not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art can change it according to the actual situation, as long as the same technical effect can be achieved.
[0065] In this way, the handle assembly is detachably connected to the fixing seat 4, when the technician needs to maintain and assemble the server, the handle assembly can be installed on the fixing seat 4, so that the unlocking and locking can be realized by one-time operation, and the maintenance and assembly operation is more simple and convenient. Moreover, no additional operation tool is needed, and the maintenance efficiency and assembly efficiency are greatly improved. Meanwhile, after the maintenance and the server assembly are completed, in order to reduce the space limitation of the cabinet body 7 as a whole, the handle assembly can be detached from the fixing seat 4, so that the handle assembly and the fixing seat 4 are separated. After being detached, the handle assembly can be placed in a special storage position, so that the cabinet body 7 as a whole looks more complete and unified, and the appearance of the whole machine is improved.
[0066] In an alternative embodiment, the movable connection can be a rotatable connection, i.e. the handle assembly is rotatably connected to the fixing seat 4, and the handle assembly is adapted to rotate along a vertical plane. Specifically, the handle assembly can be connected to the fixing seat 4 through a rotating shaft 1, and the fixing seat 4 can be connected by clamping an upper shell and a lower shell, the upper shell and the lower shell are clamped and formed with rotating holes for fixing both ends of the rotating shaft 1, and the upper shell and the lower shell are further fixed by a connecting piece. Under the driving action of external force, the handle assembly has a storage state and an unfolded state. Specifically, in the storage state, the handle assembly is in contact with the front window of the cabinet. In the unfolded state, the handle assembly is separated from the front window, and the handle assembly is driven by external force to drive the fixing seat 4 and the clamping piece 6 to move, so that the clamping piece 6 is inserted into and separated from the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8.
[0067] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 The handle assembly can be controlled to rotate along a horizontal plane, so as to drive the fixing seat 4 and the clamping piece 6 to move in a horizontal direction. Specifically, when the handle assembly is controlled to rotate rightward along the horizontal plane, the clamping piece 6 can be inserted into the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8, and when the handle assembly is controlled to rotate leftward along the horizontal plane, the clamping piece 6 can be separated from the first limiting hole 701 and the second limiting hole 8.
[0068] In this way, by setting the handle assembly to the unfolded state and the storage state, when a technician needs to maintain and assemble the server, the handle assembly can be separated from the front window, so that the handle assembly is in the unfolded state. In this way, unlocking and locking can be achieved by one-time operation, thereby making the maintenance and assembly operation more simple and convenient. Moreover, no additional operation tools are required, greatly improving the maintenance efficiency and assembly efficiency. Meanwhile, after completing the maintenance and assembling the server, in order to reduce the restriction of the cabinet 7 on the space as a whole, the handle assembly can be attached to the front window of the case, so that the handle assembly is in the storage state. Thus, the cabinet 7 as a whole can look more complete and unified, and the appearance of the whole machine is improved.
[0069] In an alternative embodiment, the handle assembly comprises a force handle 2 and a first fixing member 301. Specifically, the force handle 2 is rotatably connected with the fixing seat 4, and the force handle 2 is adapted to rotate along a vertical plane. The first fixing member 301 is arranged on the force handle 2, and the first fixing member 301 is detachably connected with the front window of the case.
[0070] In this embodiment, for the detachable connection mode, a buckle and a slot can be used for fixing. For example, buckles can be additionally arranged on the front window, and a person skilled in the art can change the number of buckles according to actual conditions, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Corresponding slots capable of cooperating with the buckles, i.e. the first fixing member 301, are arranged on the force handle 2. Then, the buckles on the front window are directly inserted into the slots of the force handle 2, so as to connect the front window with the force handle 2. At this time, the force handle 2 is directly attached to the front window, i.e. the force handle 2 is in the storage state, thereby reducing the external space. When it is needed to unfold the force handle 2, the buckles on the front window can be pulled out of the slots on the force handle 2, so as to unfold the force handle 2, thereby enabling the force handle 2 to be controlled.
[0071] Of course, a magnetic attraction mode can also be used for fixing. For example, magnetic sheets can be additionally arranged on the front window, and a person skilled in the art can change the number of magnetic sheets according to actual conditions, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Corresponding magnetic sheets capable of being attracted to the magnetic sheets are arranged on the force handle 2. Then, the magnetic sheets on the force handle 2 are directly aligned with the magnetic sheets on the front window, so as to magnetically connect the front window with the force handle 2.
[0072] In an alternative embodiment, the magnetic attraction mode can also be that the first fixing member 301 is arranged as a magnetic attraction member, and the front window of the case is made of a magnetic material.
[0073] In this way, the application can be directly adsorbed on the front window of the server or node cabinet during storage by setting the magnetic adsorption part, so as to reduce the operation steps during storage while ensuring the fixing reliability. Meanwhile, the magnetic adsorption part does not need to occupy much cabinet space and will not affect the space for plugging the connector on the front window of the server or node cabinet. In addition, the magnetic adsorption part can prevent the force applying handle 2 from being automatically separated, so as to fix reliably and save the overall occupied space of the handle assembly.
[0074] In an optional embodiment, the handle assembly further comprises an extension handle 3, one end of the extension handle 3 is rotatably connected to the end of the force applying handle 2 away from the fixing base 4, and the extension handle 3 is adapted to rotate along the vertical plane. Specifically, the end of the extension handle 3 away from the fixing base 4 can also be rotatably connected to the force applying handle 2 through the rotating shaft 1. The external force can be provided by manual operation of the technician.
[0075] In this way, the application can be directly adsorbed on the front window of the server or node cabinet during storage by setting the magnetic adsorption part, so as to reduce the operation steps during storage while ensuring the fixing reliability. Meanwhile, the magnetic adsorption part does not need to occupy much cabinet space and will not affect the space for plugging the connector on the front window of the server or node cabinet. In addition, the magnetic adsorption part can prevent the force applying handle 2 from being automatically separated, so as to fix reliably and save the overall occupied space of the handle assembly.
[0076] In an optional embodiment, under the action of the external force, the extension handle 3 has a retracted position abutting against the force applying handle 2 and an extended position away from the force applying handle 2 during automatic rotation.
[0077] Similarly, the external force can be provided by the driving device such as a motor, which automatically drives the extension handle 3 to rotate without the need for the technician to operate manually, so as to save the operation steps of the technician, optimize the operation process of the server during maintenance and assembly, and improve the work efficiency. Further, an inductor or a wireless controller can be installed on the motor driving device. The inductor can be an infrared inductor, a vibration inductor, etc. The inductor is in communication connection with the motor driving device. When the user approaches the inductor or the user taps the nearby object to make the vibration inductor sense the vibration, the motor driving device can automatically start to rotate the extension handle 3 from the retracted position to the extended position or from the extended position to the retracted position.
[0078] In this way, the present application can automatically expand the extension handle 3 under the driving of the external force, thereby rapidly lengthening the length of the force arm in the rotating process, and according to the principle of lever, increasing the length of the force arm can make the technician more labor-saving when unlocking the cabinet body 7 and the case, and greatly improve the maintenance efficiency and assembly efficiency. Meanwhile, the extension handle can also be automatically recycled, thereby saving the space occupied in the cabinet and the case, so that the cabinet body as a whole looks more complete and unified, and the appearance of the whole machine is improved.
[0079] In an alternative embodiment, the handle assembly further comprises a second fixing member 302 arranged on the extension handle 3. When the extension handle 3 is attached to the force handle 2, the second fixing member 302 is adapted to fix the extension handle 3 to the force handle 2.
[0080] Similarly, the extension handle and the force handle can be fixed in the way of buckle and slot. For example, buckles, i.e. second fixing members, can be additionally arranged on the extension handle, and the number of buckles can be changed by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Corresponding slots capable of cooperating with the buckles are formed on the force handle, and then the buckles on the extension handle are directly inserted into the slots on the force handle, thereby connecting the extension handle 3 to the force handle 2. At this time, the force handle 2 is directly attached to the front window, and the extension handle 3 is fixed to the force handle 2, i.e. the force handle 2 and the extension handle 3 are stored at the same time, thereby reducing the external space. When the extension handle 3 needs to be expanded, the buckles on the extension handle 3 can be pulled out of the slots on the force handle 2 in the reverse direction, thereby expanding the extension handle 3, and the extension handle 3 and the force handle 2 can be controlled as a whole.
[0081] Of course, the extension handle and the force handle can also be fixed in the way of magnetic attraction. For example, magnetic sheets can be additionally arranged on the extension handle, and the number of magnetic sheets can be changed by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Corresponding magnetic sheets capable of attracting the magnetic sheets are formed on the force handle, and then the magnetic sheets on the extension handle are directly aligned with the magnetic sheets on the force handle, thereby magnetically connecting the front window to the force handle. In this way, the magnetic sheets can complete the recycling and extension.
[0082] In an alternative embodiment, for the rotating mode of the fixing seat 4, a fixing hole 5 is formed on the fixing seat 4, and the fixing seat 4 is riveted with the cabinet 7 after the rivet passes through the fixing hole 5, so that the fixing seat 4 is rotatably arranged on the cabinet 7. Riveting is to press the rivet into the concave die through a simple convex die, and under the action of further pressure, the material in the concave die flows outward, generating a round connection point without edges and burrs, and without affecting the corrosion resistance. Even if the plate has a plating layer or a paint layer, it can also retain the original rust and corrosion resistance. Because the plating layer and the paint layer are also deformed and flow together, the material of the rivet is extruded to both sides and into the plate on the side of the concave die, thereby forming a connection point.
[0083] In this way, by riveting the fixing seat 4 with the cabinet, the overall fixing strength of the unlocking mechanism can be increased, preventing the unlocking mechanism from falling off the cabinet during use, thereby making the overall structure more reliable, prolonging the service life of the unlocking mechanism, and reducing the maintenance frequency of the unlocking mechanism.
[0084] Although the embodiments of the present application are described in conjunction with the drawings, various modifications and changes can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and such modifications and changes fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
