Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of server liquid cooling, in particular to a server test auxiliary device, a test system and a test method. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous improvement of server capacity, the requirement for heat dissipation is also getting higher and higher. In some servers, fans are arranged to perform air cooling heat dissipation, and heat pipes are arranged to perform liquid cooling heat dissipation. Before the server is shipped, its heat dissipation performance needs to be tested to ensure that it meets the design requirements.
[0003] However, in some special use environments, the server needs to be installed obliquely, that is, not installed on a horizontal plane. This oblique condition may cause abnormal noise when the fan rotates, and the cooling liquid formed by condensation at the condensation end of the heat pipe cannot flow smoothly back to the evaporation end, eventually leading to abnormal heat dissipation and overheating of the server. In the related art, there is no test system and method for this oblique installation environment. SUMMARY
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a server test auxiliary device, a test system and a test method, which can test the oblique installation environment of the server, so as to adaptively improve the heat dissipation performance of the server in this oblique installation environment before it is shipped, and reduce the probability of overheating of the server.

[0006] a bearing table for bearing a server, taking one end of the bearing table along a first direction as a first end and the other end as a second end, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the bearing direction of the bearing table; and
[0007] a driving mechanism comprising a first lifting rod connected to the bearing table and configured to drive the first end to lift relative to the second end.
[0008] The server test auxiliary device described above, the bearing table can be used to bear the server to realize the installation of the server. In the driving mechanism, the first lifting rod is connected to the bearing table and can drive the first end to lift relative to the second end, so as to realize that the first end of the bearing table is higher or lower than the second end, that is, to realize the inclination of the bearing table relative to the horizontal plane, thereby creating an oblique installation environment for the server borne by the bearing table, so that it can work in the oblique installation environment, so as to know its heat dissipation performance in the oblique installation environment. If it is found that the server has poor heat dissipation performance in this oblique installation environment, targeted improvement can be made before it is shipped to reduce the probability of overheating of the server in subsequent use.

[0010] The first lifting rod and the second lifting rod are respectively arranged at the first end and the second end, and both can drive the first end to lift relative to the second end, so that the first end can be lifted relative to the second end by the joint action of the first lifting rod and the second lifting rod. For example, the first end connected to the first lifting rod is lifted by the first lifting rod, and the second end connected to the second lifting rod is lowered by the second lifting rod, so that the first end is lifted relative to the second end. The two lifting rods cooperate to realize the simultaneous action of the first end and the second end, so that the inclination can be quickly realized, thereby improving the test efficiency.

[0012] The driving mechanism further comprises a third lifting rod connected to the bearing table, and the third lifting rod is used to drive the third end to lift relative to the fourth end.
[0013] The first lifting rod described above can realize the inclination of the bearing table relative to the horizontal plane in one direction, and on this basis, the third lifting rod can drive the third end to lift relative to the fourth end, so as to realize that the third end of the bearing table is higher or lower than the fourth end, that is, to realize the inclination of the bearing table relative to the horizontal plane in another direction, so that the bearing table can realize the inclination in different directions to provide more kinds of inclined installation environment and make the test process more comprehensive.
[0014] In one of the embodiments, the driving mechanism further comprises a fourth lifting rod connected to the bearing table, one of the fourth lifting rod and the third lifting rod is rotatably connected to the third end, and the other is rotatably connected to the fourth end, and the fourth lifting rod is used to drive the third end to lift relative to the fourth end.
[0015] The third lifting rod and the fourth lifting rod are respectively arranged at the third end and the fourth end, and both can drive the third end to lift relative to the fourth end, so that the third end can be lifted relative to the fourth end by the joint action of the third lifting rod and the fourth lifting rod. For example, the third end connected to the third lifting rod is lifted by the third lifting rod, and the fourth end connected to the fourth lifting rod is lowered by the fourth lifting rod, so that the third end is lifted relative to the fourth end. The two lifting rods cooperate to realize the simultaneous action of the third end and the fourth end, so that the inclination can be quickly realized, thereby improving the test efficiency.
[0016] In one of the embodiments, the server test auxiliary device further comprises a fixing mechanism connected to the bearing table, and the fixing mechanism is used to fix the server to the bearing table.
[0017] When the server is placed on the bearing table, the server can be fixed to the bearing table by the fixing mechanism to prevent the server from falling down due to tilting of the bearing table, so that the safety of the test process is higher.
[0018] In one of the embodiments, the fixing mechanism comprises a protruding piece protruding outward from the bearing table, and further comprises a pressing piece arranged on the side of the server away from the bearing table, and the pressing piece is fixedly connected with the protruding piece to press the server to the bearing table.
[0019] The pressing piece is arranged on the side of the server away from the bearing table and is fixedly connected with the protruding piece, so that the server can be pressed to the bearing table to prevent displacement of the server and falling down of the server due to tilting of the bearing table, so that the safety of the test process is higher.

[0022] In one of the embodiments, the server test system further comprises an inclination tester in communication connection with the driving mechanism, and the inclination tester is used to test the inclination of the bearing table relative to the horizontal plane.
[0023] The inclination of the bearing table relative to the horizontal plane is tested by the inclination tester, so that the inclination degree of the current bearing table can be known, so that the driving mechanism can be stopped in time when the desired inclination degree is reached to maintain the desired inclination degree.

[0025] Placing a server on a bearing table;
[0026] Adjusting the position of the bearing table to make one end of the bearing table rise and fall relative to the other end;
[0027] Starting the server to work and monitoring whether there is heat dissipation abnormality.
[0028] The server test method places the server behind the bearing table, and lifts one end of the bearing table relative to the other end, so as to make one end of the bearing table higher or lower than the other end, i.e. to make the bearing table tilt relative to the horizontal plane, thereby creating a tilted installation environment for the server carried by the bearing table. The server is allowed to work in the tilted installation environment, and whether the server has heat dissipation abnormality is monitored. If the heat dissipation abnormality is found, targeted improvement can be made before the server is shipped, so as to reduce the probability of overheating of the server in subsequent use.
[0029] In one of the embodiments, the server is allowed to work at maximum load; and / or,
[0030] After the server is allowed to work for a preset time, the temperature of each component of the server is measured.
[0031] Allowing the server to work at maximum load can monitor the heat dissipation performance of the server in a more extreme working environment, so as to know whether the server will have heat dissipation abnormality when working at maximum load, and thereby make targeted improvement before the server is shipped, so as to reduce the probability of overheating of the server in subsequent work at maximum load. After the server works for a period of time, the temperature of each component of the server is measured, so as to further confirm whether the server has overheating, and the heat dissipation abnormality is not easy to be missed, and the accuracy of the test is higher.

[0076] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 The server test system provided in an embodiment of the present application comprises the server test auxiliary device in any one of the above embodiments.
[0077] The server test system, by means of the server test auxiliary device, provides a tilted installation environment, and then tests the heat dissipation performance of the server 500 in this special installation environment, so as to make targeted improvements before the server 500 is shipped, so as to reduce the probability of overheating of the server 500 in subsequent use.
[0078] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the server test system further comprises an inclination tester which is communicatively connected to the driving mechanism 200, and the inclination tester is configured to test the inclination of the bearing table 100 relative to the horizontal plane.
[0079] Specifically, the inclination tester can be fixed to the server test auxiliary device, for example, fixed to the bearing table 100. Alternatively, the inclination tester can also be independently arranged at other positions, as long as it can measure the inclination of the bearing table 100 relative to the horizontal plane.
[0080] In the above embodiments, the inclination of the bearing table 100 relative to the horizontal plane is tested by the inclination tester, so that the degree of inclination of the bearing table 100 can be known, so that the driving mechanism 200 can be stopped in time when the desired degree of inclination is reached, so as to maintain the desired degree of inclination.
[0081] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 The server test method provided in an embodiment of the present application comprises:
[0082] S100, placing the server 500 on the bearing table 100;
[0083] S200, adjusting the position of the bearing table 100, so that one end of the bearing table 100 is raised or lowered relative to the other end;
[0084] S300, starting the server 500 to work, and monitoring whether there is heat dissipation abnormality.
[0085] The server test method can be realized by means of the server test system, after the server 500 is placed on the bearing table 100, one end of the bearing table 100 is raised or lowered relative to the other end, so that one end of the bearing table 100 is higher or lower than the other end, that is, the bearing table 100 is tilted relative to the horizontal plane, so as to create a tilted installation environment for the server 500 carried by the bearing table 100. The server 500 is allowed to work in this tilted installation environment, and whether there is heat dissipation abnormality is monitored, if it is found that there is heat dissipation abnormality, targeted improvements can be made before the server 500 is shipped, so as to reduce the probability of overheating of the server 500 in subsequent use.
[0086] Specifically, in step S100, the server 500 is placed on the top surface of the bearing table 100, and then the server 500 is fixed to the bearing table 100 using the fixing mechanism 300 described above, so that the server 500 does not shift position and fall over during the test. After step S100, the server 500 is also checked to ensure that it is working properly. After the check, the server 500 is powered on.
[0087] In step S200, the position of the bearing table 100 is adjusted so that when one end of the bearing table 100 is raised relative to the other end, the first end 110 and the second end 120 are raised, including adjusting the first lifting rod 210 and / or the second lifting rod 220, or the third end 130 is raised relative to the fourth end 140, including adjusting the third lifting rod 230 and / or the fourth lifting rod 240.
[0088] In step S300, it is monitored whether there is an abnormality in heat dissipation, including monitoring whether the server can execute various commands normally, and monitoring whether the fan has an abnormal noise, etc.
[0089] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the server 500 is operated at maximum load when it is working.
[0090] In the above embodiments, the server 500 is operated at maximum load, so that its heat dissipation performance can be monitored in a relatively extreme working environment, so as to know whether it will have an abnormality in heat dissipation when it is working at maximum load, so that targeted improvements can be made before it is shipped, so as to reduce the probability of overheating of the server 500 when it is working at maximum load later.
[0091] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the temperature of each component of the server 500 is measured after the server 500 has been working for a preset time.
[0092] Specifically, the preset time can be set artificially, for example, two hours. The server can be operated at maximum load for two hours, then it is placed horizontally and the temperature of each component is measured.
[0093] In the above embodiments, it is monitored whether there is an abnormality in heat dissipation during the working of the server 500. At the same time, the temperature of each component of the server 500 is measured after the server 500 has been working for a period of time, so that it can be further confirmed whether it has overheating, and it is not easy to miss the case of abnormal heat dissipation, so that the accuracy of the test is higher.
[0094] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, after step S300 is completed, step S200 is performed again, and the position of the bearing table 100 is adjusted so that the bearing table 100 has different degrees of inclination and / or different directions of inclination, and then step S300 is performed again.
[0095] In the above embodiments, the step S200 and the step S300 are alternately performed, and different inclination degrees and / or inclination directions are provided in each step S200, so that more comprehensive and diverse inclination installation environments are provided, and the server 500 is subjected to more comprehensive tests.
