[0003] In the related art, the PCIE expansion card needs to be plugged into the motherboard to establish an electrical connection. The plug-in scheme between the PCIE expansion card and the motherboard is: align the gold finger at the end of the PCIE expansion card with the motherboard slot, and then insert it downward perpendicular to the motherboard so that the gold finger is inserted into the motherboard slot, thereby electrically connecting the two. However, this plug-in method has the following disadvantages: the insertion force of the gold finger is large, and it is difficult to insert it into place at one time. It requires a lot of force, which increases the probability of damage to the PCIE expansion card.

[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present application will be described in more detail below in conjunction with the drawings in the preferred embodiments of the present application. In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar parts or parts with the same or similar functions.

Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application. The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0043] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, or it can be an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0044] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are orientations or positional relationships based on the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0045] The terms "first", "second", "third" (if any) in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, for example.

[0046] In addition, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or display comprising a series of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements explicitly listed, but may include other steps or elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, product, or display.

[0047] In the related art, the PCIE expansion card needs to be plugged into the motherboard to establish an electrical connection. The plug-in scheme between the PCIE expansion card and the motherboard is: align the gold finger at the end of the PCIE expansion card with the motherboard slot, and then insert it downward perpendicular to the motherboard so that the gold finger is inserted into the motherboard slot, thereby electrically connecting the two. However, this plug-in method has the following disadvantages: the insertion force of the gold finger is large, and it is difficult to insert it into place at one time. It requires a lot of force, which increases the probability of damage to the PCIE expansion card. When it needs to be pulled out, there is no good force point, and it is difficult to pull the PCIE expansion card out of the motherboard, which makes it difficult to disassemble and assemble the PCIE expansion card.

[0048] In view of the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a server, in which a connecting piece is provided for rotatably setting an actuator on a side panel, and the actuator is connected to an expansion card assembly by setting an actuator part, so that when the actuator part rotates, the expansion card assembly is driven to move relative to the bottom plate to be plugged in or out of the mainboard assembly, so that the force point remains fixed each time the expansion card assembly is plugged in or out, and the expansion card assembly is plugged in and out more conveniently and labor-savingly.

[0049] In addition, since the heat dissipation effect of the liquid cooling method is stronger than that of the air cooling method, in the related technology, the PCIE expansion card can be cooled by liquid cooling. At present, the liquid cooling plug at the end of the PCIE expansion card mainly adopts blind plugging, wherein the blind plugging scheme is mainly: align the gold finger at the end of the PCIE expansion card with the motherboard slot, align the blind plug connector at the end of the PCIE expansion card with the blind plug connector at the end of the diverter, and then insert it downward perpendicular to the motherboard. However, this blind plugging scheme has the following disadvantages in actual application: First, the insertion force of the blind plug connector is large, and it is difficult to insert it into place at one time. It requires a lot of force, which increases the probability of damage to the PCIE expansion card. When it needs to be pulled out, there is no good force point, and it is difficult to pull out the PCIE expansion card. Secondly, because the insertion force is large, it is difficult to insert the PCIE expansion card smoothly. It is necessary to adjust the force point to press the PCIE expansion card downward many times, which will increase the probability of leakage at the blind plug connector position, thereby causing damage to the server.

[0050] Reference Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the server provided by the embodiment of the present application includes a chassis 100, a motherboard assembly 200, an expansion card assembly 300 and a plug-in assembly 400, the motherboard assembly 200 is connected to the chassis 100, the chassis 100 includes a bottom plate 110 and a side panel 120, the side panel 120 is connected to the side of the bottom plate 110, the motherboard assembly 200 is located on a side of the chassis 100 close to the bottom plate 110, and the side panel 120 has an avoidance gap 1221.

[0051] The plug-in assembly 400 includes a connector 410 and an actuator 420. The connector 410 is connected to the side of the avoidance gap 1221. The actuator 420 is rotatably connected to the connector 410. The actuator 420 includes an actuator part 421. When the actuator part 421 rotates in the avoidance gap 1221, it drives the expansion card assembly 300 to move relative to the base plate 110 so as to be plugged in or out of the motherboard assembly 200.

[0052] In the present application, the chassis 100 is used to install the motherboard assembly 200 and the expansion card assembly 300, etc., the plug-in assembly 400 is used to assist the expansion card assembly 300 to be plugged in with the motherboard assembly 200, or the plug-in assembly is used to assist the expansion card assembly 300 to be disconnected from the motherboard assembly 200, thereby simplifying the plug-in and unplugging process of the expansion card assembly 300.

[0053] It should be noted that the side panels 120 can be arranged on opposite sides of the bottom plate 110, and the side panels 120 located on opposite sides of the bottom plate 110 can be provided with plug-in board assemblies. In this way, downward force can be applied to the opposite sides of the expansion card assembly 300 at the same time, or upward force can be applied to the opposite sides of the expansion card assembly 300 at the same time, so that the force on the expansion card assembly 300 is more even, thereby preventing one side of the expansion card assembly 300 from tilting relative to the other side due to uneven force during the plugging and unplugging process of the expansion card assembly 300.

[0054] Specifically, the plug assembly 400 may include a connector 410 and an actuator 420, wherein the connector 410 is used to connect the bending portion 122 and the actuator 420, so that the actuator 420 is rotatably disposed on the bending portion 122, and can then rotate relative to the bending portion 122. In this way, when the expansion card assembly 300 and the mainboard assembly 200 need to be plugged in, the actuator 420 can be rotated, so that the actuator 421 drives the expansion card assembly 300 to move toward the bottom plate 110, so that the expansion card assembly 300 can be smoothly plugged in with the mainboard assembly 200. Alternatively, when the expansion card assembly 300 and the mainboard assembly 200 need to be disconnected from each other, the actuator 420 can be rotated, so that the actuator 421 drives the expansion card assembly 300 to move away from the bottom plate 110, so that the expansion card assembly 300 can be smoothly disconnected from the mainboard assembly 200.

[0055] Compared with the plug-in and unplugging method in the prior art, the server in the embodiment of the present application uses the actuator 420 to plug and unplug the expansion card assembly 300. When the actuator 421 drives the expansion card assembly 300 to move, the contact position between the actuator 421 and the expansion card assembly 300 is basically fixed and will not change due to changes in the operator. Therefore, the plug-in and unplugging assembly 400 can have a fixed force application point, and the expansion card assembly 300 can have a fixed force receiving point, so that the plug-in and unplugging process of the expansion card assembly 300 can be standardized, which is beneficial to improving the plug-in and unplugging efficiency of the expansion card assembly 300.

[0056] Moreover, compared with directly plugging and unplugging the expansion card assembly 300 by hand, by using the actuator 420 to press the expansion card assembly 300 downward, or by using the actuator 420 to push the expansion card assembly 300 upward, the lever principle can be used to save some effort, thereby making the plugging and unplugging of the expansion card assembly 300 more labor-saving.

[0057] The server provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a chassis 100, a mainboard assembly 200, an expansion card assembly 300 and a plug-in assembly 400, the chassis 100 includes a bottom plate 110 and a side plate 120, the side plate 120 includes an avoidance gap 1221, the plug-in assembly 400 includes a connector 410 and an actuator 420, and the actuator 420 includes an actuator 421. By providing a side panel body 121 for connecting to the bottom plate 110 and for installing the plug-in assembly 400, by providing an avoidance notch 1221 for avoiding the execution part 421, so as to avoid interference between the execution part 421 and the bending part 122 when the execution part 421 rotates, by providing a connecting member 410 for connecting the bending part 122 and the execution member 420, so that the execution member 420 is rotated and arranged on the bending part 122, and by using the execution member 421 to apply force to the expansion card assembly 300, the execution member 421 drives the expansion card assembly 300 to move toward the bottom plate 110 when rotating, so that the expansion card assembly 300 is plugged into the mainboard assembly 200, or the execution member 421 is rotated to drive the expansion card assembly 300 to move away from the bottom plate 110, so that the expansion card assembly 300 is disconnected from the mainboard assembly 200. Therefore, the expansion card assembly 300 in the server provided in the embodiment of the present application is convenient and labor-saving to plug and unplug.

[0058] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, the expansion card assembly 300 includes an expansion card 310 and an ear plate 320 connected to each other, the ear plate 320 has a first avoidance hole 321 , and the execution portion 421 has a second avoidance hole 4211 .

[0059] The plug-in assembly 400 also includes a fastener 430, which has an external thread. The side panel 120 has a connecting hole 1222, and the connecting hole 1222 has an internal thread matching the external thread. The fastener 430 passes through the second avoidance hole 4211 and the first avoidance hole 321 in sequence to be threadedly connected to the connecting hole 1222. The head of the fastener 430 stops at the end of the second avoidance hole 4211 that is away from the connecting hole 1222.

[0060] It is understandable that the ear plate 320 is mainly used to install the expansion card 310 on the side plate 120, and then the expansion card assembly 300 is fixedly installed on the chassis 100 as a whole through the ear plate 320 to prevent the expansion card assembly 300 from moving relative to the chassis 100 when the server is working.

[0061] Specifically, the ear plate 320, the executive part 421 and the side plate 120 can be threadedly connected together by the fastener 430, that is, the fastener 430 passes through the second avoidance hole 4211 of the executive part 421 and the first avoidance hole 321 of the ear plate 320 in sequence, and then the external thread of the fastener 430 cooperates with the internal thread of the connecting hole 1222, and the stopping effect of the head of the fastener 430 is used to relatively fix the ear plate 320, the executive part 421 and the side plate 120. In this way, the expansion card 310 can be firmly installed on the chassis 100, and when the expansion card 310 needs to be pulled out, the fastener 430 can be loosened and the executive part 421 can be rotated so that the executive part 421 drives the ear plate 320 to move relative to the bottom plate 110, thereby driving the expansion card 310 to be plugged in or out of the motherboard assembly 200.

[0062] In the above-mentioned setting method, the force point of the expansion card assembly 300 is located at the ear plate 320. The ear plate 320 itself has a relatively large structural strength and is not easily damaged by repeated force. The expansion card 310 itself has more electronic components inside and has a relatively low structural strength. This can avoid directly applying force to the expansion card 310 and causing damage to the expansion card 310.

[0063] Reference Figure 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, in a possible implementation, the plug assembly 400 further includes an elastic member 440 , which is sleeved on the fastener 430 , and the elastic member 440 elastically abuts between the head of the fastener 430 and the ear plate 320 .

[0064] In this way, the elastic member 440 can provide elastic force to the ear plate 320 , thereby pressing the ear plate 320 against the side plate 120 , thereby firmly installing the expansion card assembly 300 on the side plate 120 .

[0065] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the server provided by the embodiment of the present application also includes a liquid cooling component 500, the liquid cooling component 500 is connected to the chassis 100, the expansion card 310 has a first plug-in portion 311 and a second plug-in portion 312, the motherboard assembly 200 has a third plug-in portion 210, and the liquid cooling component 500 has a fourth plug-in portion 510. The first plug-in portion 311 is plugged into the third plug-in portion 210 to electrically connect the expansion card 310 and the motherboard assembly 200, and the second plug-in portion 312 is plugged into the fourth plug-in portion 510 to mechanically connect the expansion card 310 and the liquid cooling component 500, and the plug-in directions of the first plug-in portion 311 and the second plug-in portion 312 are consistent.

[0066] It is understandable that when the expansion card assembly 300 adopts liquid cooling for heat dissipation, a liquid cooling assembly 500 needs to be set in the chassis 100. The liquid cooling assembly 500 needs to be provided with an entrance and exit of the cooling medium, that is, the fourth plug-in portion 510, and the expansion card 310 also needs to be provided with an entrance and exit of the cooling medium, that is, the second plug-in portion 312. After the second plug-in portion 312 and the fourth plug-in portion 510 are plugged into each other, the cooling medium can flow between the liquid cooling assembly 500 and the expansion card 310, and then the heat of the expansion card 310 is taken away by the cooling medium.

[0067] In the above-mentioned setting method, the plugging directions of the first plug-in portion 311 and the second plug-in portion 312 are consistent, that is, when the expansion card 310 is plugged into the mainboard assembly 200, the expansion card 310 can be plugged into the liquid cooling assembly 500. With the assistance of the plug-in assembly 400, not only can the plugging and unplugging of the second plug-in portion 312 and the fourth plug-in portion 510 be made more convenient and labor-saving, thereby improving the plug-in and unplugging efficiency of the expansion card 310, but also repeated plugging due to inaccurate plug-in position can be prevented, thereby preventing one or both of the second plug-in portion 312 and the fourth plug-in portion 510 from leaking liquid.

[0068] Reference Figure 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, in a specific implementation, the execution part 421 includes a first execution part 4212 and a second execution part 4213 , an angle is formed between the extension direction of the first execution part 4212 and the extension direction of the second execution part 4213 , and the second avoidance hole 4211 is located at the first execution part 4212 .

[0069] In this way, when the execution part 421 rotates relative to the avoidance notch 1221, due to the angle between the first execution part 4212 and the second execution part 4213, the two have different positions relative to the ear plate 320. One of the first execution part 4212 and the second execution part 4213 can abut against the ear plate 320, and the other of the first execution part 4212 and the second execution part 4213 can be disengaged from the abutment with the ear plate 320, thereby driving the ear plate 320 to move toward the bottom plate 110 or away from the bottom plate 110.

[0070] For example, when the expansion card 310 needs to be plugged into the motherboard assembly 200, the first actuator 4212 is rotated until it abuts against the ear plate 320, and then the ear plate 320 is pressed downward, thereby driving the expansion card 310 to move toward the bottom plate 110, so that the expansion card 310 is plugged into the motherboard assembly 200. When the expansion card 310 needs to be disconnected from the motherboard assembly 200, the second actuator 4213 is rotated until it abuts against the ear plate 320, and then the ear plate 320 is pushed downward, thereby driving the expansion card 310 to move away from the bottom plate 110, so that the expansion card 310 is disconnected from the motherboard assembly 200.

[0071] Reference Figure 5 , Figures 9 to 11 As shown, in some embodiments, the first execution portion 4212 has a first abutting surface 4212a on one side facing the second execution portion 4213, and the second execution portion 4213 has a second abutting surface 4213a on one side facing the first execution portion 4212. The first abutting surface 4212a is configured to abut against a side of the ear plate 320 facing away from the bottom plate 110 when the expansion card 310 is installed, so as to drive the expansion card 310 to move toward the bottom plate 110. The second abutting surface 4213a is configured to abut against a side of the ear plate 320 facing the bottom plate 110 when the expansion card 310 is removed, so as to drive the expansion card 310 to move away from the bottom plate 110.

[0072] In this way, the first abutment surface 4212a of the first execution part 4212 can abut against the side of the ear plate 320 facing away from the bottom plate 110, and when the expansion card 310 needs to be plugged into the mainboard assembly 200, the ear plate 320 can be pressed downward, and the second abutment surface 4213a of the second execution part 4213 can abut against the side of the ear plate 320 facing the bottom plate 110 to push the ear plate 320 upward, so that the execution part 421 can effectively assist the operator during the insertion and removal of the expansion card 310, thereby improving the plug-in and removal efficiency of the expansion card 310 and avoiding leakage of the expansion card 310 or the liquid cooling assembly 500.

[0073] In some embodiments, the angle is greater than or equal to 25° and less than or equal to 50°. It is understandable that if the angle between the first execution portion 4212 and the second execution portion 4213 is too small, the expansion card 310 has not been fully inserted into the motherboard assembly 200, and the first execution portion 4212 cannot continue to apply force to the ear plate 320, or has not been completely pulled out of the motherboard assembly 200, and the second execution portion 4213 cannot continue to apply force to the ear plate 320, which will reduce the convenience of the plug-in assembly 400. If the angle between the first execution portion 4212 and the second execution portion 4213 is too large, it is necessary to rotate a larger angle to make the first execution portion 4212 or the second execution portion 4213 abut against the ear plate 320, which will increase the difficulty of operation for the operator.

[0074] Therefore, setting the angle between the first execution part 4212 and the second execution part 4213 between 25° and 50° is a relatively suitable range. For example, the angle can be any one of 25°, 30°, 45°, and 50° or within any two value ranges.

[0075] Reference Figure 5 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10As shown, in a possible implementation, the actuator 420 further includes a force-applying portion 422 , and the force-applying portion 422 is connected to the actuator 421 , so as to drive the actuator 421 to rotate through an external force acting on the force-applying portion 422 .

[0076] In this way, external force of the hand can be applied to the force-applying part 422, and the force-applying part 422 can be provided with an anti-slip structure, such as a bump or an anti-slip rib, and then the external force can be transmitted to the execution part 421 through the force-applying part 422 to drive the execution part 421 to rotate, thereby driving the expansion card assembly 300 to move relative to the base plate 110.

[0077] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in a possible implementation, the plug assembly 400 further includes a rotating shaft 450, the actuator 420 further includes a hinge portion 423, the connector 410 includes a first connector 411, and the rotating shaft 450 is passed through the first connector 411 and the hinge portion 423, so that the actuator 420 is rotatably disposed on the connector 410. The force-applying portion 422 and the actuator 421 are respectively connected to both sides of the hinge portion 423.

[0078] In this way, the actuator 420 can be rotatably disposed on the connecting member 410 via the rotating shaft 450. When the force-applying part 422 is pressed downward, the force of the force-applying part 422 is directed to the bottom plate 110, and the actuator 421 moves away from the bottom plate 110, thereby driving the expansion card 310 to move away from the bottom plate 110, so that the expansion card 310 is disengaged from the motherboard assembly 200, and the expansion card 310 is disengaged from the liquid cooling assembly 500. When the force-applying part 422 is lifted upward, the force of the force-applying part 422 is directed to the direction away from the bottom plate 110, and the actuator 421 moves toward the bottom plate 110, thereby driving the expansion card 310 to move toward the bottom plate 110, so that the expansion card 310 is plugged into the motherboard assembly 200, and the expansion card 310 is plugged into the liquid cooling assembly 500.

[0079] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting member 410 further includes a second connecting portion 412 , the first connecting portion 411 is bent relative to the second connecting portion 412 in a direction away from the avoidance notch 1221 , and the first connecting portion 411 and the side panel 120 are connected via the second connecting portion 412 .

[0080] In this way, the connector 410 can be rotatably connected to the actuator 420 via the first connecting portion 411 , and fixedly connected to the side panel 120 via the second connecting portion 412 , so that the plug-in assembly can be integrally mounted on the side panel 120 via the connector 410 .

[0081] Reference Figures 6 to 8As shown, it should be understood that the side panel 120 can be arranged perpendicular to the bottom panel 110, but for better operation, in some embodiments, the side panel 120 may include a side panel body 121 and a bending portion 122 that are connected to each other, and the bending portion 122 is bent toward the outside of the side panel 120 relative to the side panel body 121, and the avoidance notch 1221 and the connecting hole 1222 are located at the bending portion 122.

[0082] In this way, the side panel body 121 is vertically arranged with the bottom panel 110, and the bending portion 122 can be arranged parallel with the bottom panel 110, which makes the operation more convenient when connecting the ear panel 320, the bending portion 122 and the execution portion 421, and facilitates the hand to apply force to the force application portion 422, thereby improving the convenience of operation.

[0083] The side plate body 121 has a guide groove 1211, the extension direction of the guide groove 1211 is consistent with the plug-in direction of the expansion card 310, and the side of the expansion card 310 is inserted into the guide groove 1211. In this way, when the expansion card 310 is plugged in or out, the expansion card 310 can be moved along the guide groove 1211 relative to the bottom plate 110, thereby preventing the movement direction of the expansion card 310 from being offset, thereby improving the plug-in efficiency of the expansion card 310.

[0084] In some embodiments, the plug-in assembly 400 is disposed on opposite sides of the expansion card assembly 300 so as to simultaneously apply force downward or upward to the opposite sides of the expansion card assembly 300. The number of expansion card assemblies 300 can be two or more, and multiple expansion card assemblies 300 are arranged in an array, and the plug-in assembly 400 is arranged corresponding to the expansion card assembly 300, that is, two plug-in assemblies 400 are arranged corresponding to one expansion card assembly 300, thereby improving the plug-in efficiency of each expansion card assembly 300.

Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents.
