Summary of the Invention

[0036] Optionally, the anti-pulling elements provided on both sides of the combing assembly include the rotating rollers whose surfaces face opposite directions.
[0037] In this embodiment, since the rack housing is divided into multiple linearly distributed enclosures, the rack housing can form multiple independently configured enclosures. Different functional electronic components can then be placed in each enclosure, facilitating the classification of electronic components with different functions for the expansion rack server. Furthermore, since a combing assembly is installed on the side wall of each enclosure, the combing assembly includes a drive component, a rotating component, and a winding component. The drive component and the rotating component are movably connected to the side wall of the enclosure. The rotating component is connected to the drive component, and the drive component drives the rotating component to rotate along a first rotation direction and a second rotation direction. The winding component is installed at the end of the rotating component away from the side wall of the enclosure, thus allowing the winding component to rotate along different rotation directions as the rotating component rotates. In addition, the housing has at least two through holes communicating with the inner cavity of the housing, and the combing assembly has at least one through hole on each side. The through holes are configured as channels for the wire harness to enter the inner cavity of the housing. Therefore, when the drive unit drives the rotating part in the first rotation direction, the wire harness passes through the through hole on one side of the combing assembly, is wound around the winding part, and passes through the through hole on the other side of the combing assembly into the inner cavity of the housing. This allows the wire harness to enter the through hole through the winding part by being guided by the winding part, thereby achieving the effect of combing the wire harness. When the drive unit drives the rotating part in the second rotation direction, the wire harness between the through holes on both sides of the combing assembly is wound around the winding part. Therefore, redundant wire harness between the through holes on both sides of the combing assembly can be wound around the winding part, which not only saves the space occupied by the wire harness, but also avoids the wire harness from crossing and tangling, thereby reducing the wire harness failure rate and false contact rate.
[0038] In summary, in this embodiment of the application, while facilitating the classification of electronic components with different functions of the expansion cabinet server, it is possible to avoid cross-tangling of wire harnesses, thereby reducing the failure rate and accidental contact rate of wire harnesses, reducing safety hazards of the expansion cabinet server, and keeping the wire harnesses neat, making it easier for staff to quickly locate and replace faulty wire harnesses, saving maintenance time and costs.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides an expansion cabinet server, which includes:
[0053] The cabinet housing 1 is divided into multiple linearly distributed boxes 11.
[0054] The combing assembly 2 is installed on the side wall of each box 11. The combing assembly 2 includes a driving component 21, a rotating component 22, and a winding component 23. The driving component 21 and the rotating component 22 are movably connected to the outer wall of the box 11. The rotating component 22 is connected to the driving component 21. The driving component 21 drives the rotating component 22 to rotate in a first rotation direction and a second rotation direction. The winding component 23 is installed at the end of the rotating component 22 away from the outer wall of the box 11. The first rotation direction and the second rotation direction are two opposite rotation directions.
[0055] The housing 11 has at least two wire-passing holes 13 that communicate with the inner cavity of the housing 11. The combing assembly 2 has at least one wire-passing hole 13 on each side. The wire-passing holes 13 are configured as channels for the wire harness to enter the inner cavity of the housing 11.
[0056] When the drive member 21 drives the rotating member 22 in the first rotation direction, the wire harness passes through the thread hole 13 on one side of the combing assembly 2, is wound around the winding member 23, and passes through the thread hole 13 on the other side of the combing assembly 2 into the inner cavity of the housing 11. When the drive member 21 drives the rotating member 22 in the second rotation direction, the wire harness between the thread holes 13 on both sides of the combing assembly 2 is wound around the winding member 23.
[0057] As can be seen from the above embodiments, in this application embodiment, since the cabinet housing 1 is divided into multiple linearly distributed boxes 11, the cabinet housing 1 can form multiple independently set boxes 11, and different functional electronic components can be placed in each box 11 to facilitate the classification of electronic components with different functions of the expansion cabinet server. Furthermore, since a combing assembly 2 is installed on the side wall of each box 11, the combing assembly 2 includes a drive member 21, a rotating member 22, and a winding member 23. The drive member 21 and the rotating member 22 are both movably connected to the side wall of the box 11. The rotating member 22 is connected to the drive member 21, and the drive member 21 drives the rotating member 22 to rotate along a first rotation direction and a second rotation direction. The winding member 23 is installed at the end of the rotating member 22 away from the side wall of the box 11, so the winding member 23 can rotate along different rotation directions as the rotating member 22 rotates. Furthermore, the housing 11 has at least two threading holes 13 communicating with the inner cavity of the housing 11. The combing assembly 2 has at least one threading hole 13 on each side. These threading holes 13 are configured as channels for the wire harness to enter the inner cavity of the housing 11. Therefore, when the driving member 21 drives the rotating member 22 in the first rotation direction, the wire harness passes through the threading hole 13 on one side of the combing assembly 2, is wound around the winding member 23, and then passes through the threading hole 13 on the other side of the combing assembly 2 into the inner cavity of the housing 11, allowing the wire harness to... Guided by the winding member 23, the wires enter the threading hole 13 to achieve the effect of combing the wire harness. When the driving member 21 drives the rotating member 22 in the second rotation direction, the wire harness between the threading holes 13 on both sides of the combing component 2 is wound on the winding member 23. Therefore, the redundant wire harness between the threading holes 13 on both sides of the combing component 2 can be wound on the winding member 23, which not only saves the space occupied by the wire harness, but also avoids the wire harness from crossing and tangling, thereby reducing the wire harness failure rate and accidental contact rate.
[0058] In summary, in this embodiment of the application, while facilitating the classification of electronic components with different functions of the expansion cabinet server, it is possible to avoid cross-tangling of wire harnesses, thereby reducing the failure rate and accidental contact rate of wire harnesses, reducing safety hazards of the expansion cabinet server, and keeping the wire harnesses neat, making it easier for staff to quickly locate and replace faulty wire harnesses, saving maintenance time and costs.
[0059] In the above embodiments, the cabinet housing 1 is a square housing structure. The cabinet housing 1 can be divided into multiple cavity structures by partitions 12, baffles, or other partition structures, so that the cabinet housing is divided into multiple linearly distributed boxes 11. The linear distribution of multiple boxes 11 can be understood as multiple boxes 11 arranged longitudinally. The number of boxes 11 included in the cabinet housing 1 can be determined according to the functional types of electronic components that need to be placed in the cabinet housing 1. This application embodiment does not limit this. It should be noted that since different types of electronic devices with different functions require different types of wiring harnesses, when electronic components are classified by boxes 11, the wiring harnesses that are electrically connected to the electronic components are also classified along with the boxes 11, which can distinguish the types of wiring harnesses to a certain extent.
[0060] Furthermore, the combing assembly 2 installed on the side wall of each housing 11 mainly serves to wind the wire harness. The combing assembly 2 includes a driving component 21, a rotating component 22, and a winding component 23. The driving component 21 can be any type of rotating component, such as a gear and rack structure or a motor lead screw structure. The rotating component 22 can be hinged to the outer wall of the housing 11, allowing it to rotate around a rotation axis. The rotating component 22 can be a cylindrical structure, a columnar structure, or other structures; this embodiment does not limit this. The winding component 23 is a component with a wire harness winding structure. The winding component 23 can be an L-shaped rod structure, an I-shaped frame structure, or other components that can provide a wire harness for storage; this embodiment does not limit this. Since the winding component 23 is installed at the end of the rotating component 22 away from the outer wall of the housing 11, when the driving component 21 drives the rotating component to rotate, the winding component 23 can rotate along with the rotating component 22, thereby achieving the effect of winding the wire.
[0061] Each housing 11 has at least two threading holes 13. The at least two threading holes 13 should be located on both sides of the combing assembly 2. That is, there is at least one threading hole 13 on one side of the combing assembly 2 and at least one threading hole 13 on the other side of the combing assembly 2. This allows the wire bundle to pass out from one threading hole 13 and be guided by the combing of the combing assembly 2 to pass into the threading hole 13 on the other side.
[0062] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, the first rotation direction and the second rotation direction are two opposite rotation directions. For example, when the first rotation direction is clockwise, the second rotation direction is counterclockwise, and when the first rotation direction is counterclockwise, the second rotation direction is clockwise.
[0063] The structure of the combing component 2 provided in this embodiment will be described in detail below:
[0064] In one embodiment, the winding member 23 includes at least two oppositely arranged winding portions, each of which includes a receiving groove for accommodating a wire harness.
[0065] In this embodiment, since the winding member 23 includes at least two oppositely arranged winding portions, each winding portion includes a receiving groove for accommodating the wire bundle, the openings of the receiving grooves formed by the two winding portions are oriented in opposite directions. Thus, the wire bundle can be limited by the two receiving grooves with opposite opening orientations, ensuring the collection and accommodating function of the winding member 23 for the wire bundle.
[0066] Regarding the type of drive element 21, in one possible implementation, drive element 21 includes a gear 211 and a rack 212; rotating element 22 includes a rotating rod 221, a spring 222, and a rotating sleeve 223; rotating rod 221 is hinged to the outer wall of housing 11, rotating sleeve 223 is sleeved on rotating rod 221, rotating sleeve 223 includes a receiving cavity, and one end of spring 222 is fixed to the inner wall of the receiving cavity of rotating sleeve 223. The other end of component 2 is fixed to the end of rotating rod 221. Gear 211 is sleeved on rotating sleeve 223. Gear 211 and rotating sleeve 223 are coaxially arranged, and the rotation direction of gear 211 is the same as the rotation direction of rotating sleeve 223. Rack 212 is arranged on one side of rotating sleeve 223 and is slidably connected to the side wall of housing 11. Rack 212 and gear 211 mesh. Winding component 23 is fixed on the surface of rotating sleeve 223 away from housing 11.
[0067] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the gear 211 has a mounting through hole in its middle, through which the rotating sleeve 223 passes, resulting in an interference fit between the gear 211 and the rotating sleeve 223. That is, the gear 211 is fitted onto the rotating sleeve 223, and the gear 211 and the rotating sleeve 223 are coaxially arranged, with the rotation direction of the gear 211 and the rotation direction of the rotating sleeve 223 being the same. Thus, when the gear 211 rotates, the rotating sleeve 223 rotates synchronously, and vice versa. The rotating rod 221 can be hinged to the outer wall of the housing 11 via a rotating shaft or a rotating pin, allowing the rotating rod 221 to rotate relative to the housing. The spring 222 is a type of coil spring, meaning a spring whose helix lies in a single plane. With one end of the spring 222 fixed to the inner wall of the receiving cavity of the rotating sleeve 223, and the other end fixed to the end of the rotating rod 221, when the spring 222 is subjected to torque due to external force, the material of the spring 222 is subjected to bending moment, resulting in elastic bending deformation. Consequently, the spring 222 twists within its own plane. The rack 212 is slidably connected to the side wall of the housing 11. The rack 212 meshes with the gear 211, allowing the rack 212 to undergo linear displacement as the gear 211 rotates.
[0068] Based on the above structure, the driving process of the driving member 21 provided in this embodiment is as follows: When the rack 212 slides along the first direction, the rack 212 drives the gear 211 to rotate along the first rotation direction, the gear 211 drives the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate along the first rotation direction, the winding member 23 rotates along the first rotation direction with the rotation of the rotating sleeve 223, and the rotating sleeve 223 drives the spring 222 to twist along the first rotation direction so that the torque of the spring 222 continuously increases; when the rack 212 slides along the second direction, the rotating sleeve 223 has no constraint force on the spring 222, the spring 222 rotates back to its original position along the second rotation direction, the torque of the spring 222 continuously decreases, the spring 222 drives the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate along the second rotation direction, and the winding member 23 rotates along the second rotation direction with the rotation of the rotating sleeve 223, wherein the first direction and the second direction are two opposite directions.
[0069] Specifically, when routing the wire harness, when the rack 212 slides along the first direction, it causes the rack 212 to drive...
[0070] Gear 211 rotates in the first rotation direction, and rotating sleeve 223 rotates synchronously with gear 211. Winding member 23 rotates synchronously with rotating sleeve 223. Since the wire harness's path direction is tangential to and opposite to the first rotation direction during threading, the wire harness can move towards the threading hole 13 on the other side under the guidance of winding member 23. During this process, rotating sleeve 223 continuously causes rotating rod 221 to rotate, which in turn exerts a force on spring 222, generating torque in spring 222. This torque causes spring 222 to be subjected to bending moment, resulting in bending elastic deformation. Consequently, spring 222 twists in its own plane. As the angle of twist increases, the torque of spring 222 continuously increases. When the wire harness needs to pass through the wire hole 13, the force of the rack 212 disappears, thus removing the constraint of the rotating sleeve 223 on the spring 222. The spring 222 rotates back to its original position in the second rotation direction, and the torque of the spring 222 continuously decreases. The spring 222 drives the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate in the second rotation direction, and the winding member 23 rotates in the second rotation direction along with the rotation of the rotating sleeve 223. During this process, the wire harness routing direction is tangent to the second rotation direction and the same as the first direction, so the wire harness is continuously wound on the winding member 23. Therefore, the redundant wire harness between the wire holes 13 on both sides of the combing assembly 2 can be wound on the winding member 23, which not only saves the space occupied by the wire harness, but also avoids the wire harness routing from crossing and tangling, thereby reducing the wire harness failure rate and false contact rate.
[0071] In another embodiment, a sliding groove 14 extending in a first direction is provided on the outer wall of the housing 11, and a slider 213 is installed on the rack 212 in the direction away from the tooth surface, and the slider 213 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 14.
[0072] It should be noted that in this embodiment, both the longitudinal section of the slider 213 and the cross-section of the sliding groove 14 are convex, meaning that a portion of the slider 213 is engaged in the sliding groove 14, while the other portion extends out of the sliding groove 14. Thus, when the slider 213 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 14, as the slider 213 slides, it drives the rack 212 to move along either the first or second direction.
[0073] In another embodiment, the expansion cabinet server also includes a limiting member 3; when the rack 212 slides along the first direction and the torque of the spring 222 increases to its maximum value, the limiting member 3 and the slider 213 are detachably connected; when the limiting member 3 and the slider 213 are separated, the torque of the spring 222 continuously decreases and the rack 212 slides along the second direction.
[0074] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when the rack 212 slides along the first direction and the torque of the spring 222 increases to its maximum value, the position of the rack 212 can be fixed by the limiting member 3, thereby preventing the gear 211 and the rotating sleeve 223 from rotating, ensuring that the torque of the spring 222 is always at its maximum value. Thus, when the limiting member 3 and the slider 213 separate, the rotating sleeve 223 exerts no constraint on the spring 222, and the spring 222 rotates back to its original position along the second rotation direction. The torque of the spring 222 continuously decreases, and the spring 222 drives the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate along the second rotation direction. The winding member 23 rotates along the second rotation direction with the rotating sleeve 223, ultimately allowing the redundant wire bundle between the threading holes 13 on both sides of the combing assembly 2 to be wound onto the winding member 23. It should also be noted that the limiting member 3 can be one or more of specific elastic components, snap-fit components, or plug-in components; this embodiment does not limit this.
[0075] In another embodiment, the limiting member 3 includes a mounting plate 31, a locking rod 32, and a first elastic member 33. The mounting plate 31 is fixed to the outer wall of the housing 11, the locking rod 32 is movably connected to the mounting plate 31, and the first elastic member 33 is sleeved on the locking rod 32 and located between the locking rod 32 and the mounting plate 31. The surface of the slider 213 away from the rack 212 is provided with a locking groove 2131. When the rack 212 slides along the first direction and the torque of the spring 222 increases to its maximum value, the end of the locking rod 32 is inserted into the locking groove 2131, and the first elastic member 33 is in a compressed state.
[0076] In this embodiment, a through hole can be made in the mounting plate 31, allowing the locking rod 32 to pass through the through hole. The locking rod 32 can be a T-shaped rod structure, that is, one end of the locking rod 32 has a rod cap structure, so that the first elastic element 33 can be sleeved between the rod cap structure and the mounting plate 31. In this way, when the rack 212 slides along the first direction and the torque of the spring 222 increases to its maximum value, the end of the locking rod 32 is inserted into the locking groove 2131, and the first elastic element 33 is in a compressed state. Therefore, the locking rod 32 can move longitudinally, and after the end of the locking rod 32 disengages from the locking groove 2131, the locking rod 32 can return to its initial state under the action of the first elastic element 33. It should be noted that the first elastic element 33 can be an elastic body capable of elastic deformation and returning to its initial state, such as a spring, rubber strip, or other components.
[0077] In another embodiment, the winding member 23 includes at least two winding rods 231 in relative positions; the winding rod 231 includes a mounting rod 2311, an extension rod 2312 and a limiting plate 2313, the end of the extension rod 2312 is fixed on the rotating sleeve 223, the first end of the mounting rod 2311 is inserted into the extension rod 2312, the second end of the mounting rod 2311 is connected to the limiting plate 2313, and the extension direction of the mounting rod 2311 intersects the plane where the limiting plate 2313 is located.
[0078] In this embodiment, since the winding member 23 includes at least two winding rods 231 in relative positions, the first end of the mounting rod 2311 is inserted into the extension rod 2312, the second end of the mounting rod 2311 is connected to the limiting plate 2313, and the extension direction of the mounting rod 2311 intersects the plane where the limiting plate 2313 is located, the winding rod 231 can include at least two mounting rods 2311 and the limiting plate 2313 forming a receiving groove, and the openings of the two receiving grooves face opposite directions. Thus, the wire harness can be limited by the two receiving grooves with opposite opening directions, ensuring the collection and receiving function of the winding member 23 for the wire harness.
[0079] In another embodiment, the first end of the mounting rod 2311 is inserted into the inner cavity of the extension rod 2312, and the first end of the mounting rod 2311 and the inner cavity of the extension rod 2312 are telescopically connected.
[0080] It should be noted that the extension rod 2312 can be a hollow rod-shaped structure, and the first end of the mounting rod 2311 can extend into the inner cavity of the extension rod 2312, forming a plug-in structure between the mounting rod 2311 and the extension rod 2312. This allows for a telescopic connection between the first end of the mounting rod 2311 and the inner cavity of the extension rod 2312. Therefore, the length of the winding portion of the mounting rod 2311 can be adjusted by changing the length of the first end of the mounting rod 2311 extending into the extension rod 2312, to accommodate the winding requirements of wire harnesses of different lengths.
[0081] In another embodiment, the inner cavity of the extension rod 2312 is provided with a second elastic member 2314, and the first end of the mounting rod 2311 abuts against the end of the second elastic member 2314, wherein the second elastic member 2314 is in a compressed state.
[0082] In this embodiment, since the first end of the mounting rod 2311 abuts against the end of the second elastic member 2314, and the second elastic member 2314 is in a compressed state, the length of the first end of the mounting rod 2311 extending into the extension rod 2312 can be easily adjusted by the elastic force of the second elastic member 2314. It should be noted that the second elastic member 2314 can be an elastic body capable of elastic deformation and returning to its initial state, such as a spring, rubber strip, or similar component.
[0083] In another possible implementation of the drive component 21, the drive component 21 includes a drive gear, a drive screw, and a drive motor. The rotating component 22 includes a rotating rod 221 and a rotating sleeve 223. The drive shaft of the drive motor is connected to the drive screw, one end of the drive screw meshes with the drive gear, and the drive motor is fixed to the outer wall of the housing 11. The rotating rod 221 is hinged to the outer wall of the housing 11, the rotating sleeve 223 is sleeved on the rotating rod 221, and the drive gear is sleeved on the rotating sleeve 223. The drive gear and the rotating sleeve 223 are coaxially arranged, and the rotation direction of the drive gear is the same as the rotation direction of the rotating sleeve 223.
[0084] It should be noted that the drive gear has a mounting through hole in the middle, through which the rotating sleeve 223 passes, resulting in an interference fit between the drive gear and the rotating sleeve 223. That is, the drive gear is fitted onto the rotating sleeve 223, and the drive gear and rotating sleeve 223 are coaxially arranged, with the rotation direction of the drive gear and the rotating sleeve 223 being the same. This allows the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate synchronously when the drive gear rotates, and the gear 211 to rotate synchronously when the rotating sleeve 223 rotates. Since the drive shaft of the drive motor is connected to the drive screw, and one end of the drive screw meshes with the drive gear, which is fitted onto the rotating sleeve 223, the drive gear can rotate in different directions under the drive screw's influence, causing the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate in different directions. Because the rotation direction of the drive motor is controllable and the rotation accuracy is adjustable, it is convenient to control the rotation direction of the winding component 23.
[0085] The driving process of the driving component 21 provided in this embodiment is as follows: When the rotating shaft of the driving motor rotates along the first rotation direction, the driving screw moves along the first direction, the driving screw drives the driving gear to rotate along the first rotation direction, the driving gear drives the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate along the first rotation direction, and the winding component 23 rotates along the first rotation direction with the rotation of the rotating sleeve 223; when the rotating shaft of the driving motor rotates along the second rotation direction, the driving screw moves along the second direction, the driving screw drives the driving gear to rotate along the second rotation direction, the driving gear drives the rotating sleeve 223 to rotate along the second rotation direction, and the winding component 23 rotates along the second rotation direction with the rotation of the rotating sleeve 223, wherein the first direction and the second direction are two opposite directions.
[0086] Specifically, during the wiring of the wire harness, the drive motor's rotating shaft rotates in a first rotation direction, causing the drive screw to move in the first direction, which in turn drives the drive gear to rotate in the first rotation direction. The rotating sleeve 223 and the drive gear rotate synchronously, and the winding member 23 rotates synchronously with the rotating sleeve 223. Since the wiring direction of the wire harness is tangent to and opposite to the first rotation direction during the wire threading process, the wire harness can move towards the threading hole 13 on the other side under the guidance of the winding member 23. When the wire harness needs to pass through the threading hole 13, the drive motor's rotating shaft rotates in a second rotation direction, causing the drive screw to move in the second direction, which in turn drives the drive gear to rotate in the second rotation direction. The rotating sleeve 223 and the drive gear rotate synchronously, and the winding member 23 rotates synchronously with the rotating sleeve 223. During this process, the routing direction of the wire harness is tangent to the second rotation direction and the same as the first direction, so that the wire harness is continuously wound on the winding member 23. Therefore, the redundant wire harness between the wire holes 13 on both sides of the combing component 2 can be wound on the winding member 23, which not only saves the space occupied by the wire harness, but also avoids the wire harness routing from crossing and tangling, thereby reducing the wire harness failure rate and false contact rate.
[0087] In another embodiment, the inner cavity of the cabinet housing 1 includes multiple partitions 12, which divide the cabinet housing 1 into multiple linearly distributed enclosures 11. Since different types of electronic devices require different types of wiring harnesses, when electronic components are classified by enclosures 11, the wiring harnesses that are electrically connected to the electronic components are also classified along with the enclosures 11, which can distinguish the types of wiring harnesses to a certain extent.
[0088] In another embodiment, at least one anti-pull member 4 is provided on both sides of the combing component 2. The anti-pull member 4 is installed on the outer wall of the housing 11 and is located between the wire hole 13 and the combing component 2. The wire harness between the wire hole 13 and the combing component 2 is wound around the anti-pull member 4. The anti-pull member 4 is used to reduce the tension on the wire harness.
[0089] It should be noted that since the anti-pull component 4 is set between the wire hole 13 and the combing component 2, and the wire harness between the wire hole 13 and the combing component 2 is wrapped around the anti-pull component 4, the anti-pull component 4 is used to reduce the tension on the wire harness. Therefore, when the wire is pulled out or in, the tension on the wire harness can be reduced by the anti-pull component 4, thereby reducing the damage caused by pulling the wire harness and further protecting the integrity of the wire harness structure.
[0090] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the anti-pull component 4 includes an anti-pull housing 41, a buffer rod 42, and a rotating roller 43; one end of the buffer rod 42 is telescopically connected to the inner cavity of the anti-pull housing 41, and the other end of the buffer rod 42 is hinged to the rotating roller 43, and the wire harness between the thread hole 13 and the combing assembly 2 is wound around the wheel surface of the rotating roller 43.
[0091] Thus, in this embodiment, since one end of the buffer rod 42 is retractably connected to the inner cavity of the anti-pull housing 41, and the other end of the buffer rod 42 is hinged to the rotating roller 43, the wire harness between the thread hole 13 and the combing assembly 2 is wound around the wheel surface of the rotating roller 43. Therefore, when the wire harness passes through the surface of the rotating roller 43, the rolling of the rotating roller 43 can provide guidance, and the friction between the wire harness and the rotating roller 43 can be kinetic friction, i.e., sliding friction, thereby reducing the frictional force on the wire harness during the movement, and thus reducing the tension on the wire harness.
[0092] Optionally, in some embodiments, the anti-pull member 4 further includes a third elastic member 44, one end of which is fixed in the inner cavity of the anti-pull housing 41, and the other end of which is connected to the end of the buffer rod 42 away from the rotating roller 43.
[0093] It should be noted that since one end of the third elastic element 44 is fixed in the inner cavity of the anti-pull housing 41, and the other end of the third elastic element 44 is connected to the end of the buffer rod 42 away from the rotating roller 43, when the wire harness comes into contact with the rotating roller 43, the third elastic element 44 can be compressed, thereby causing the buffer rod 42 to move towards the third elastic element 44, so that the wire harness has a certain buffering effect during the movement, reducing the tension on the wire harness and reducing the damage caused by pulling the wire harness.
[0094] In another embodiment, the anti-pull members 4 on both sides of the combing assembly 2 include rotating rollers 43 with opposite orientations. This allows the anti-pull members 4 on both sides of the combing assembly 2 to exert opposite supporting forces on the wire harness, thereby facilitating the guidance of the wire harness at the two rotating rollers 43 and reducing the tension on the wire harness during exiting and threading.
[0095] As can be seen from the above embodiments, in this application embodiment, since the cabinet housing 1 is divided into multiple linearly distributed boxes 11, the cabinet housing 1 can form multiple independently set boxes 11, and different functional electronic components can be placed in each box 11 to facilitate the classification of electronic components with different functions of the expansion cabinet server. Furthermore, since a combing assembly 2 is installed on the side wall of each box 11, the combing assembly 2 includes a drive member 21, a rotating member 22, and a winding member 23. The drive member 21 and the rotating member 22 are both movably connected to the side wall of the box 11. The rotating member 22 is connected to the drive member 21, and the drive member 21 drives the rotating member 22 to rotate along a first rotation direction and a second rotation direction. The winding member 23 is installed at the end of the rotating member 22 away from the side wall of the box 11, so the winding member 23 can rotate along different rotation directions as the rotating member 22 rotates. Furthermore, the housing 11 has at least two threading holes 13 communicating with the inner cavity of the housing 11. The combing assembly 2 has at least one threading hole 13 on each side. These threading holes 13 are configured as channels for the wire harness to enter the inner cavity of the housing 11. Therefore, when the driving member 21 drives the rotating member 22 in the first rotation direction, the wire harness passes through the threading hole 13 on one side of the combing assembly 2, is wound around the winding member 23, and then passes through the threading hole 13 on the other side of the combing assembly 2 into the inner cavity of the housing 11, allowing the wire harness to... Guided by the winding member 23, the wires enter the threading hole 13 to achieve the effect of combing the wire harness. When the driving member 21 drives the rotating member 22 in the second rotation direction, the wire harness between the threading holes 13 on both sides of the combing component 2 is wound on the winding member 23. Therefore, the redundant wire harness between the threading holes 13 on both sides of the combing component 2 can be wound on the winding member 23, which not only saves the space occupied by the wire harness, but also avoids the wire harness from crossing and tangling, thereby reducing the wire harness failure rate and accidental contact rate.
[0096] In summary, in this embodiment of the application, while facilitating the classification of electronic components with different functions of the expansion cabinet server, it is possible to avoid cross-tangling of wire harnesses, thereby reducing the failure rate and accidental contact rate of wire harnesses, reducing safety hazards of the expansion cabinet server, and keeping the wire harnesses neat, making it easier for staff to quickly locate and replace faulty wire harnesses, saving maintenance time and costs.
