Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of servers, and more specifically, to a server structure. Background Art

[0002] Front-out maintenance means that the server modules and module cable outlets are designed with a server front window, where the modules and cables can be plugged in and out for maintenance. In a front-out server system, the switch board is set horizontally, and the opening of the PCIE (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard) connector is set upward and close to the front window for connecting the network card.

[0003] For the vertically inserted network card, it is vertically plugged into the PCIE connector to achieve signal connection; for the front-inserted network card, since the PCIE connector of the switch board is close to the front window, and the corresponding position of the rear-end wiring part of the module after the front-inserted network card module is assembled is in the direction of the rear window, it is more difficult to connect the connector of the front-inserted network card and the PCIE connector of the switch board.

[0004] In the related art, systems need to be set up separately for the vertically inserted network cards and the front-inserted network cards, and the two systems are then interconnected using cables via the connectors on the panel. The PCIE connector of the same switch board cannot simultaneously meet the signal connection with the vertically inserted network card or the front-inserted network card. The switch board cannot be reused and needs to be redesigned, resulting in a high design cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0061] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0062] The core of the present invention is to provide a server structure that is compatible with the vertically inserted network card module 2 and the front-inserted network card module 3, thereby reducing production costs.

[0063] The server structure provided by the present invention is specifically a front-outlet server structure, which can be inspected and maintained at the front window 11 of the server, and is compatible with the vertical-insertion network card module 2 and the front-insertion network card module 3 .

[0064] Specifically, the server structure includes a chassis 1 and a switch board 9. The switch board 9 is disposed in the chassis 1. Specifically, the switch board 9 is fixed to the studs of the chassis 1 by hand screws 92 through the second fixing holes 93 disposed on the switch board 9 and the I-shaped nails of the chassis 1. Fig.17 , Figure 1 , Figure 6The second fixing hole 93 is a gourd hole. When installing the exchange board 9, it is assembled by vertically lowering it and then pushing it horizontally toward the front window of the chassis 1. One end of the gourd hole has a smaller aperture and the other end has a larger aperture. When pushing horizontally, the I-shaped nail of the chassis 1 is pushed from the larger position of the gourd aperture to the smaller position to complete the fixation, so that the exchange board 9 is fixed in the chassis 1. That is, when installing the exchange board 9, the larger aperture position of the gourd hole is set close to the front window position of the chassis 1.

[0065] In addition, the switch board 9 further includes a switch board I / O front window 92 , and the switch board I / O front window 92 is located at the front window position of the chassis 1 .

[0066] A connector 91 for signal transmission is provided on the switch board 9 near the front window of the chassis 1. The connector 91 is a PCIE connector. The connector 91 is used to interconnect with the network card. The interconnection here is a signal connection. The specific network card is a vertical network card and a front network card corresponding to the vertical network card module 2 and the front network card module 3 respectively. The connector 91 of the switch board 9 is arranged near the front window, which is designed to facilitate the plugging and unplugging of maintenance modules and cables at the front window of the server.

[0067] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the socket of the connector 91 is arranged upward, and upward here specifically refers to relative to Figure 1 and Figure 6 When applied to the vertically inserted network card module 2, several vertically inserted network card modules 2 are plugged into the sockets of the connector 91 from top to bottom to realize the signal connection between the vertically inserted network card module 2 and the switch board 9.

[0068] For the front-inserted network card module 3, the signal connection with the switch board 9 is realized by means of the wire bonding board assembly 4. Specifically, the wire bonding board assembly 4 includes a gold finger assembly 44 and a signal transmission element connected thereto. Specifically, the gold finger assembly 44 is arranged near the front window position of the chassis 1, and the signal transmission element is arranged near the rear window position of the chassis 1. The rear window here is relative to the front window, and is determined in combination with the actual definition of which part of the front window position of the chassis 1 is. By setting the wire bonding board assembly 4 to connect the front-inserted network card module 3 and the switch board 9, the convenience of operation is improved.

[0069] The signal transmission element is arranged near the rear window of the chassis 1 because the corresponding position of the rear wiring part of the module after the front-plug network card module 3 is assembled is arranged in the direction of the rear window, which is convenient for wiring of the front-plug network card module 3 and ensures that the front-plug network card module 3 can be connected to the signal transmission element through the signal. The signal transmission element is connected to the gold finger component 44. When the gold finger component 44 and the connector 91 are plugged in, the signal connection between the front-plug network card module 3 and the switch board 9 is realized.

[0070] like Figure 4 As shown, after the gold finger assembly 44 is plugged into the connector 91, the gold finger assembly 44 is located at the lower end of the front plug-in network card module 3, and the signal transmission element is located at the right end of the front plug-in network card module 3. The right end and the lower end here are based on Figure 4 In terms of location.

[0071] In this embodiment, the signal transmission element may be a signal line or other element capable of transmitting a signal, and is selected based on the effect of connecting the rear end wiring part of the front-inserted network card module 3 .

[0072] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the connector 91 is either connected to the gold finger assembly 44 or to the vertical plug-in network card module 2, corresponding to the front plug-in network card module 3 and the vertical plug-in network card module 2. The same switch board 9 and chassis 1 can be reused, and the structure of the switch board 9 does not need to be designed separately, saving design and manufacturing costs.

[0073] The switch board 9 is provided with a connector 91 near the front window of the chassis 1. The vertically inserted network card module 2 and the connector 91 are plugged in to realize the signal connection between the vertically inserted network card module 2 and the switch board 9. For the front-inserted network card module 3, the signal connection with the switch board 9 is realized by means of the wire bonding board assembly 4. Specifically, the wire bonding board assembly 4 is arranged in the chassis 1, including a gold finger assembly 44 and a signal transmission element arranged near the front window of the chassis 1. The signal transmission element is arranged near the rear window of the chassis 1 and the signal is connected to the front-inserted network card module 3. The rear-end wiring part of the front-inserted network card module 3 can be operated conveniently by setting the signal transmission element, thereby improving the convenience of wiring. The rear end here refers to the rear end of the front-inserted network card module 3 corresponding to the rear window of the chassis 1.

[0074] This server structure, through the setting of the welding wire board assembly 4, makes the same chassis 1 and the same switching board 9 compatible with the vertical plug-in network card module 2 and the front plug-in network card module 3. The connector 91 of the same switching board 9 can simultaneously meet the plug-in requirements of the vertical plug-in network card and the front plug-in network card, reducing the design and processing costs.

[0075] The specific number of the wire bonding board assemblies 4 is determined according to the number of front-plug network cards of the front-plug network card module 3 , and is not limited to the specific application number.

[0076] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, the signal transmission element is a transmission cable welded on the gold finger assembly 44 , and the transmission cable signal is connected to the front-inserted network card module 3 .

[0077] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the reliability of signal transmission between the switching board 9 and the front-plug network card module 3 and reduce signal loss, the transmission cable is directly welded to the gold finger assembly 44, and directly connected to the wiring part at the rear end of the front-plug network card module 3 through the transmission cable to ensure signal strength and signal transmission between the switching board 9 and the front-plug network card module 3.

[0078] On the basis of any of the above embodiments, the signal transmission element is a cable connector 45 , and the cable connector 45 is connected to the gold finger assembly 44 through a welding cable 42 .

[0079] Please refer to Figure 4 , Fig.12 , Fig.13 The signal transmission element is a cable connector 45, and the cable connector 45 is arranged at the rear end position of the welding wire board assembly 4, while the gold finger assembly 44 is arranged at the front end position of the welding wire board assembly 4. In order to realize the signal connection between the cable connector 45 and the gold finger assembly 44, firstly, a welding cable 42 should be arranged between the two. The welding cable 42 here is the signal line. On this basis, the wiring part at the rear end of the front-plug network card module 3 is connected to the cable connector 45, so that the signal connection between the gold finger assembly 44 and the front-plug network card module 3 can be realized. When the gold finger assembly 44 and the connector 91 are plugged in, the signal connection between the front-plug network card module 3 and the switch board 9 is realized.

[0080] In this embodiment, the cable connector 45 and the gold finger assembly 44 can be independently arranged. The cable connector 45, the gold finger assembly 44 and the welding cable 42 can be connected as a whole and then installed in the chassis 1 as needed. Alternatively, the gold finger assembly 44 and the welding cable 42 can be installed first, and then the cable connector 45 can be assembled. Adaptive changes can be made according to actual assembly conditions to improve the flexibility of the installation of the welding wire board assembly 4.

[0081] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the gold finger assembly 44 is reliably plugged into the connector 91, a certain floating space can be set in the connector 91 or the gold finger assembly 44. The floating space here means that the gold finger assembly 44 and the connector 91 can have space for fine-tuning when they are plugged together, which can avoid component damage caused by manufacturing errors and ensure reliable plug-in of the gold finger assembly 44 and the connector 91.

[0082] Based on any of the above embodiments, the welding wire board assembly 4 includes: a first fixed bracket 41, which is arranged near the front window of the chassis 1 and is used to install a gold finger assembly 44; a second fixed bracket 43, which is arranged away from the front window of the chassis 1 and is used to install a cable connector 45; a welding wire board cable 46, which is arranged on the second fixed bracket 43 and connected to the welding cable 42, and the signal of the welding wire board cable 46 is connected to the cable connector 45.

[0083] Please refer to Fig.12 , Fig.13 The wire bonding board assembly 4 includes a first fixing bracket 41 , a second fixing bracket 43 , a wire bonding board cable 46 , a cable connector 45 , and a gold finger assembly 44 .

[0084] The cable connector 45 is disposed at the top of the second fixing bracket 43 and has a connecting end extending toward the bottom of the second fixing bracket 43, while the soldering wire board cable 46 is disposed at the bottom of the second fixing bracket 43, and the connecting end of the cable connector 45 is connected to the soldering wire board cable 46 to achieve signal connection.

[0085] One end of the welding cable 42 is connected to the welding board cable 46, and the other end is connected to the gold finger assembly 44. The signal connection between the cable connector 45 and the welding cable 42 is realized through the welding board cable 46, and the signal connection between the welding cable 42 and the gold finger assembly 44 is formed by welding. The gold finger assembly 44 specifically includes a board 441 and a gold finger 442 provided on the board 441, wherein the welding cable 42 is specifically welded on the board 441, and the gold finger 442 is plugged into the connector 91.

[0086] In specific application, when the gold finger assembly 44 is plugged into the connector 91 , the connection between the switch board 9 and the rear end wiring of the front-inserted network card module 3 is realized through the gold finger assembly 44 , the welding cable 42 , the welding wire board cable 46 and the gold finger assembly 44 .

[0087] The gold finger assembly 44 is arranged on the first fixed bracket 41, and the first fixed bracket 41 and the second fixed bracket 43 are relatively independent. When installing the soldering wire board assembly 4, it can be determined whether to assemble the cable end first or the card end first according to the actual proofing and trial assembly situation. The cable end here is the second fixed bracket 43, the cable connector 45, and the soldering wire board cable 46, and the card end is the first fixed bracket 41, the gold finger assembly 44, and the welding cable 42.

[0088] Taking a specific implementation as an example, one end of the soldering wire board cable 46, the gold finger assembly 44, and the first fixed bracket 41 are first assembled on the switch board 9, and then the cable connector 45 and the second fixed bracket 43 are first hung on the ears 12 on both sides of the chassis 1. After the front-plug network card frame 31 of the front-plug network card module 3 is assembled, the other end of the soldering wire board cable 46 is connected to the second fixed bracket 43, and the cable connector 45 and the second fixed bracket 43 are fixed to the front-plug network card frame 31.

[0089] Taking another specific implementation as an example, the cable connector 45, the second fixing bracket 43, and the soldering wire board cable 46 are first fixed as a whole to the front network card frame 31 of the front network card module 3; when the front network card frame 31 is against the front window position of the chassis 1, the soldering wire board cable 46 is fixed to the switch board 9 through the welding cable 42 and the gold finger assembly 44; finally, the front network card frame 31 is fixed to the chassis 1.

[0090] Based on any of the above embodiments, an L-shaped groove 431 is provided on the side of the second fixing bracket 43, where the side refers to the front and rear sides of the second fixing bracket 43, and the front and rear sides of the second fixing bracket 43 are connected to two opposite inner walls of the chassis 1.

[0091] The L-shaped slot 431 is specifically connected to the straight nail on the front network card frame 31 of the front network card module 3. The straight nail is first connected to the horizontal end of the L-shaped slot 431, and then connected upward to the vertical end of the L-shaped slot 431. When the straight nail is connected to the vertical end of the L-shaped slot 431, the movement of the second fixed bracket 43 in the height and length directions is restricted.

[0092] Furthermore, a threaded hole 432 is also provided on the side of the second fixing bracket 43 having the L-shaped groove 431. A fastener passes through the front-inserted network card module 3 and extends into the threaded hole 432 to fix the second fixing bracket 43 and the front-inserted network card module 3. At this time, the movement of the second fixing bracket 43 in the width direction is restricted.

[0093] In this embodiment, the length, width and height directions of the second fixing bracket 43 are specifically, taking the second fixing bracket 43 as an elongated strip structure as an example, the longer side is the length direction, and the wider side is the width direction.

[0094] In this embodiment, when the straight nail is connected to the L-shaped slot 431, the gold finger assembly 44 and the switch board 9 are both located on the lower side of the front-plug network card module 3, and the second fixed bracket 43 is located at the rear end of the front-plug network card module 3 to facilitate the cable connector 45 on the second fixed bracket 43 and the rear end wiring connection of the front-plug network card module 3.

[0095] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Fig.16 , Figure 6 The server structure also includes a crossbeam 8, which is specifically used for the case where the vertically inserted network card module 2 is installed in the chassis 1, and can provide support for the vertically inserted network card module 2. The two ends of the crossbeam 8 are connected to the two opposite inner walls of the chassis 1, and the bottom of the crossbeam 8 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the chassis 1, so as to be reliably fixed in the chassis 1 to enhance the strength of the entire chassis 1.

[0096] In the actual server structure, one, two or more vertically inserted network card modules 2 can be provided, so the two ends of the crossbeam 8 are directly connected to the two inner walls of the chassis 1 that are opposite to each other, and several vertically inserted network card modules 2 are fixed on the crossbeam 8 to achieve support and fixation, which is convenient for assembly and disassembly.

[0097] A plurality of first fixing holes 81 are provided in the length direction of the crossbeam 8, the rear end of the vertically inserted network card module 2 is connected to the crossbeam 8 through at least one first fixing hole 81, and the front end of the vertically inserted network card module 2 is fixed to the chassis 1, and based on the connection between the vertically inserted network card module 2 and the connector 91, the reliable stability of the vertically inserted network card module 2 in the chassis 1 is ensured.
