DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0061] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0062] The core of the present application is to provide a server structure which is compatible with vertical plug-in network card module 2 and front plug-in network card module 3, and reduces the production cost.
[0063] The server structure provided by the present application is a front wire outlet server structure, which can be maintained and repaired at the server front window 11 position, and is compatible with vertical plug-in network card module 2 and front plug-in network card module 3.
[0064] Specifically, the server structure includes a case 1 and an exchange plate 9, the exchange plate 9 is arranged in the case 1, and specifically, the second fixed hole 93 arranged on the exchange plate 9 is matched with the dowel of the case 1, and the exchange plate 9 is fixed to the stud of the case 1 by the hand-held screw 94, such as Figure 17 , Figure 1 , Figure 6The second fixing hole 93 is a gourd hole. When the switching board 9 is installed, the switching board 9 is assembled by vertically lowering and then pushing horizontally to the front window position of the cabinet 1. The gourd hole has a smaller diameter at one end and a larger diameter at the other end. When pushed horizontally, the I-shaped pin of the cabinet 1 is pushed from the position where the gourd hole has a larger diameter to the position where the gourd hole has a smaller diameter to complete the fixing, so that the switching board 9 is fixed in the cabinet 1. That is, when the switching board 9 is installed, the position of the larger diameter of the gourd hole is close to the front window position of the cabinet 1.
[0065] In addition, the switching board 9 also includes a switching board I / O front window 92, which is located at the front window position of the cabinet 1.
[0066] The switching board 9 is provided with a connector 91 for signal transmission close to the front window position of the cabinet 1. The connector 91 is a PCIE connector, which is used for interconnection with the network card. The interconnection here refers to signal connection. The specific network card refers to the vertical insertion network card and the front insertion network card corresponding to the vertical insertion network card module 2 and the front insertion network card module 3, respectively. The connector 91 of the switching board 9 is arranged close to the front window position, which is designed to facilitate the plugging and unplugging of the maintenance module and the cable operation at the front window position of the server.
[0067] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 6 , the connector 91 is arranged upward. Here, upward refers to the upper position relative to Figure 1 and Figure 6 . When applied to the vertical insertion network card module 2, a plurality of vertical insertion network card modules 2 are inserted from top to bottom into the connector 91, so as to realize the signal connection between the vertical insertion network card module 2 and the switching board 9.
[0068] For the front insertion network card module 3, the signal connection with the switching board 9 is realized by means of the soldering wire plate assembly 4. Specifically, the soldering wire plate assembly 4 includes a gold finger assembly 44 and a signal transmission element connected thereto. The gold finger assembly 44 is arranged close to the front window position of the cabinet 1, and the signal transmission element is arranged close to the rear window position of the cabinet 1. Here, the rear window is relative to the front window. The specific front window position of the cabinet 1 is determined in combination with the actual definition. The soldering wire plate assembly 4 is arranged to connect the front insertion network card module 3 and the switching board 9, which improves the convenience of operation.
[0069] The signal transmission element is arranged close to the rear window position of the cabinet 1, which is based on the corresponding position of the rear end wiring part of the front insertion network card module 3 after assembly. The rear end wiring part is arranged in the direction of the rear window, which is convenient for wiring of the front insertion network card module 3. It is ensured that the front insertion network card module 3 can be connected to the signal transmission element, and the signal transmission element is connected to the gold finger assembly 44. When the gold finger assembly 44 and the connector 91 are connected, the signal connection between the front insertion network card module 3 and the switching board 9 is realized.
[0070] AsFigure 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 network card module 3, and the signal transmission element is located at the right end of the front-plug network card module 3. The right end and the lower end here are both based on the middle position. Figure 4
[0071] In this embodiment, the signal transmission element can be a signal line or other element capable of transmitting signals, so as to be selected according to the effect of the rear wiring part of the front-plug network card module 3.
[0072] In this embodiment, it is to be noted that the connector 91 is connected with the gold finger assembly 44 or the vertical-plug network card module 2, corresponding to the front-plug network card module 3 and the vertical-plug network card module 2, respectively. The same switching board 9 and the case 1 can be reused, and the structure of the switching board 9 does not need to be designed separately, thereby saving the design and manufacturing cost.
[0073] The switching board 9 is provided with the connector 91 near the front window of the case 1, and the vertical-plug network card module 2 is plugged into the connector 91 to realize the signal connection between the vertical-plug network card module 2 and the switching board 9. As for the front-plug network card module 3, the signal connection with the switching board 9 is realized by means of the soldering wire plate assembly 4. Specifically, the soldering wire plate assembly 4 is arranged in the case 1 and includes the gold finger assembly 44 arranged near the front window of the case 1 and the signal transmission element arranged near the rear window of the case 1 and signal-connected with the front-plug network card module 3. The rear end of the front-plug network card module 3 corresponds to the rear end near the rear window of the case 1. The rear end of the front-plug network card module 3 can be conveniently operated by means of the arrangement of the signal transmission element, thereby improving the convenience of wiring.
[0074] The server structure, by means of the arrangement of the soldering wire plate assembly 4, makes the same case 1 and the same switching board 9 compatible with the vertical-plug network card module 2 and the front-plug network card module 3. The connector 91 of the same switching board 9 can simultaneously satisfy the plugging requirements of the vertical-plug network card and the front-plug network card, thereby reducing the design and processing cost.
[0075] The number of the soldering wire plate assembly 4 is determined according to the number of the front-plug network cards of the front-plug network card module 3, and the number of the specific application is not limited.
[0076] On the basis of the above embodiment, the signal transmission element is a transmission cable welded on the gold finger assembly 44, and the transmission cable is signal-connected with the front-plug network card module 3.
[0077] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the reliability of the signal transmission between the switching board 9 and the front-plug network card module 3 and reduce the loss of the signal, the transmission cable is directly welded on the gold finger assembly 44, and the transmission cable is directly connected with the wiring part at the rear end of the front-plug network card module 3, thereby ensuring the signal strength and ensuring the signal transmission between the switching board 9 and the front-plug network card module 3.
[0078] In any of the above embodiments, the signal transmission element is a cable connector 45, and the cable connector 45 is signal connected to the gold finger assembly 44 through the soldering cable 42.
[0079] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 , the signal transmission element is a cable connector 45, and the cable connector 45 is arranged at the rear end of the soldering board assembly 4, and the gold finger assembly 44 is arranged at the front end of the soldering board assembly 4. In order to realize the signal connection between the cable connector 45 and the gold finger assembly 44, first of all, the soldering cable 42 between the two needs to be arranged, that is, the signal line. On this basis, the wiring part at the rear end of the front plug-in network card module 3 is connected to the cable connector 45, that is, the signal connection between the gold finger assembly 44 and the front plug-in network card module 3 is realized. When the gold finger assembly 44 and the connector 91 are plugged, the signal connection between the front plug-in network card module 3 and the exchange board 9 is realized.
[0080] In this embodiment, the cable connector 45 and the gold finger assembly 44 can be independently arranged. According to the actual assembly situation, the cable connector 45, the gold finger assembly 44, and the soldering cable 42 can be connected as a whole and then installed in the case 1, or the gold finger assembly 44 and the soldering cable 42 can be installed first, and then the cable connector 45 can be assembled. According to the actual assembly situation, the adaptability can be changed, and the flexibility of the soldering board assembly 4 installation is improved.
[0081] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the gold finger assembly 44 can be reliably plugged into the connector 91, a certain floating space can be arranged on 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 a fine adjustment space when they are plugged in. The component damage problem caused by manufacturing errors can be avoided, and the reliable plugging of the gold finger assembly 44 and the connector 91 is ensured.
[0082] On the basis of any of the above embodiments, the soldering board assembly 4 comprises: a first fixed support 41 arranged close to the front window position of the case 1, used for installing the gold finger assembly 44; a second fixed support 43 arranged away from the front window position of the case 1, used for installing the cable connector 45; and a soldering board cable 46 arranged on the second fixed support 43 and connected to the soldering cable 42. The soldering board cable 46 is signal connected to the cable connector 45.
[0083] Please refer to Figure 12 , Figure 13 , the soldering board assembly 4 comprises a first fixed support 41, a second fixed support 43, a soldering board cable 46, a cable connector 45, and a gold finger assembly 44.
[0084] The cable connector 45 is arranged on the top of the second fixing support 43 and has a connecting end extending to the bottom of the second fixing support 43, and the soldering plate cable 46 is arranged on the bottom of the second fixing support 43, the connecting end of the cable connector 45 is connected with the soldering plate cable 46 to realize signal connection.
[0085] The soldering cable 42 is connected with the soldering plate cable 46 at one end and connected with the gold finger assembly 44 at the other end, the signal connection between the cable connector 45 and the soldering cable 42 is realized through the soldering plate cable 46, and the signal connection between the soldering cable 42 and the gold finger assembly 44 is realized through soldering. The gold finger assembly 44 specifically comprises a board card 441 and a gold finger 442 arranged on the board card 441, and the soldering cable 42 is specifically soldered on the board card 441, and the gold finger 442 is inserted into the connector 91.
[0086] In a specific application, when the gold finger assembly 44 is inserted into the connector 91, the connection between the switching board 9 and the rear end wiring of the front-inserted network card module 3 is realized through the gold finger assembly 44, the soldering cable 42, the soldering plate cable 46 and the gold finger assembly 44.
[0087] The gold finger assembly 44 is arranged on the first fixing support 41, and the first fixing support 41 and the second fixing support 43 are relatively independent, and when the soldering plate assembly 4 is installed, it can be determined according to the actual sample fitting condition whether to assemble the cable end first or the card end first, the cable end here is the second fixing support 43, the cable connector 45 and the soldering plate cable 46, and the card end is the first fixing support 41, the gold finger assembly 44 and the soldering cable 42.
[0088] Taking a specific embodiment as an example, one end of the soldering plate cable 46, the gold finger assembly 44 and the first fixing support 41 are assembled on the switching board 9 first, then the cable connector 45 and the second fixing support 43 are hung on the two side hanging ears 12 of the case 1, after the front-inserted network card frame 31 of the front-inserted network card module 3 is assembled, the other end of the soldering plate cable 46 is connected to the second fixing support 43, and the cable connector 45 and the second fixing support 43 are fixed to the front-inserted network card frame 31.
[0089] Taking another specific embodiment as an example, the cable connector 45, the second fixing support 43 and the soldering plate cable 46 are fixed as a whole to the front-inserted network card frame 31 of the front-inserted network card module 3, the soldering plate cable 46 is fixed to the switching board 9 through the soldering cable 42 and the gold finger assembly 44 when the front-inserted network card frame 31 is placed on the front window position of the case 1, and finally the front-inserted network card frame 31 is fixed to the case 1.
[0090] Based on any of the above embodiments, an L-shaped groove 431 is provided on the side of the second fixed bracket 43. Here, the side refers to the front and rear sides of the second fixed bracket 43, and the front and rear sides of the second fixed bracket 43 are connected to the two opposing inner walls of the chassis 1.
[0091] Specifically, the L-shaped groove 431 is connected to the straight pin on the front plug-in network card frame 31 of the front plug-in network card module 3. The straight pin is first connected to the horizontal end of the L-shaped groove 431, and then connected upward to the vertical end of the L-shaped groove 431. When the straight pin is connected to the vertical end of the L-shaped groove 431, the movement of the second fixed bracket 43 in the height and length directions is restricted.
[0092] Furthermore, the second fixed bracket 43 is provided with a threaded hole 432 on the side of the L-shaped groove 431. After the fastener passes through the front plug-in network card module 3, it extends into the threaded hole 432 to fix the second fixed bracket 43 and the front plug-in network card module 3. At this time, the movement of the second fixed bracket 43 in the width direction is restricted.
[0093] In this embodiment, the length, width, and height directions of the second fixed bracket 43 are specifically defined as follows: taking the second fixed bracket 43 as a long strip structure, the longer side is the length direction, and the wider side is the width direction.
[0094] In this embodiment, when the straight pin is connected to the L-shaped slot 431, the gold finger assembly 44 and the switching board 9 are both located on the lower side of the front plug-in network card module 3, while the second fixing bracket 43 is located at the rear end of the front plug-in network card module 3, so as to facilitate the connection between the cable connector 45 on the second fixing bracket 43 and the rear end wiring of the front plug-in network card module 3.
[0095] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 16 , Figure 6 The server structure also includes a crossbeam 8, which is specifically used when the vertically inserted network card module 2 is installed inside the chassis 1, providing support for the vertically inserted network card module 2. The two ends of the crossbeam 8 are connected to the two opposing inner walls of the chassis 1, and the bottom of the crossbeam 8 is connected to the bottom wall of the chassis 1, so as to strengthen the overall strength of the chassis 1 by reliably fixing it inside the chassis 1.
[0096] Since in the actual server structure, one, two or more vertically inserted network card modules 2 can be set, 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. Several vertically inserted network card modules 2 are fixed on the crossbeam 8 to achieve support and fixation, which facilitates assembly and disassembly.
[0097] The horizontal beam 8 is provided with a plurality of first fixing holes 81 in the length direction, the rear end of the vertical plug-in network card module 2 is connected to the horizontal beam 8 through at least one first fixing hole 81, and the front end of the vertical plug-in network card module 2 is fixed to the cabinet 1, so as to ensure the reliable stability of the vertical plug-in network card module 2 in the cabinet 1 on the basis of the plug-in connection between the vertical plug-in network card module 2 and the connector 91.
