Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of servers, and in particular to a server group. Background Art

[0002] Server cabinets, as support and protection structures for electronic equipment, are mainly composed of a frame system and closable covers or doors. They generally present a standardized rectangular shape, creating a suitable operating environment for internal electronic equipment and providing the necessary safety protection barrier.

[0003] The current server cabinet has multiple installation slots in the vertical direction, and each installation slot is suitable for installing a layer of server units. However, this design is limited in flexibility and it is difficult to accurately match the requirements of different numbers of server modules, resulting in a waste of space. If a simple multi-layer server unit stacking method is adopted, although it seems to save space, once a server unit fails and needs maintenance, the maintenance personnel have to remove all the server units stacked above it one by one in order to access and remove the failed server, which undoubtedly greatly increases the complexity and inconvenience of the maintenance operation and affects the maintenance efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a server group to solve the problem of complex maintenance operations and low maintenance efficiency of multi-layer server units.

[0005] The present invention provides a server group, comprising one or more layers of server units, wherein the server units are arranged in sequence along a first direction; the server units comprise a shell and two groups of support components, wherein the two groups of support components are respectively arranged on both sides of the shell along a second direction and are detachably connected to the shell; the support components extend along the first direction, and the support components of two adjacent layers are plug-connected; and the shells of two adjacent layers are slidably connected along a third direction; the first direction is a vertical direction, and the first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0006] Beneficial effect: Since two adjacent layers of supporting components are plug-in connected, when it is necessary to install a multi-layer server unit, it is only necessary to plug in the supporting components of each layer in sequence along the first direction to achieve cabinet-free installation and firm fixation of the multi-layer server unit, thereby improving the flexibility and space utilization efficiency of server unit deployment and effectively saving installation space; since the shell and the supporting component are detachably connected, and the adjacent two side shells are slidably connected along the third direction, when a server unit of a certain layer fails and needs maintenance, it is only necessary to separate and disassemble the supporting component of the server unit of that layer from the shell, and then move the shell out along the third direction through the sliding mechanism, so as to directly inspect and repair the faulty server unit. During this process, the position of the supporting component remains unchanged and can still play a supporting role. The single-layer server can be repaired without making major adjustments to the entire structure, thereby simplifying the maintenance process, shortening the maintenance time, and improving the overall maintenance efficiency and convenience.

[0007] In an optional embodiment, the server unit further includes a heat dissipation component, and an air inlet and an air outlet are provided on the shell; the top of the shell is open, and the bottom of the shell is provided with a communication port.

[0008] Beneficial effects: The heat dissipation design of the server unit is realized by setting the heat dissipation components, air inlets and air outlets; since the top opening of the shell is set and a connecting port is provided at the bottom of the shell, when multiple layers of servers are arranged in sequence along the first direction to form a multi-layer stacking structure, the air between adjacent server units can be smoothly circulated and exchanged through the top opening and the bottom connecting port, thereby realizing effective dispersion of heat, promoting the balanced distribution of temperature inside the server group, and providing a strong guarantee for the continuous and stable operation of the server units.

[0009] In an optional embodiment, the server unit further includes an adjustment component, which is located inside the shell and is arranged at the position where the air outlet is located; the adjustment component has a first position for shielding part of the air outlet, and a second position adjacent to the air outlet.

[0010] Beneficial effect: By setting an adjustment component at the position of the air outlet, when the heat dissipation component function of one of the server units is damaged, the adjustment components of all server units in the same column will be adjusted to the preset first position, reducing the opening degree of the air outlet of each server unit, increasing the air outlet damping of each server unit, and forcing the airflow to be redistributed to the inside of the adjacent server unit through the connecting port after the original path is blocked, and finally acting on the server unit where the heat dissipation component is damaged, ensuring that even if the heat dissipation component of a server unit fails, the remaining server units can still effectively perform emergency heat dissipation on it through shared airflow, thereby maintaining the thermal management efficiency of the server unit with a failed heat dissipation component to a certain extent, reducing the risk of server unit downtime due to heat dissipation failure, greatly shortening the potential fault recovery time, and effectively improving the work efficiency and operation stability of the entire server group, and realizing the flexible adjustment of the opening degree of the air outlet according to the heat dissipation requirements and system status, thereby optimizing the airflow distribution and heat dissipation efficiency.

[0011] In an optional embodiment, the adjustment assembly includes a driving member and an adjustment plate; the driving member is arranged at the position of the air outlet and fixed on the shell; the adjustment plate is fixedly connected to the driving end of the driving member and is suitable for rotating under the drive of the driving member.

[0012] Beneficial effects: By setting the adjustment plate, it is possible to achieve a shielding effect on part of the air outlet; by setting the driving member, power is provided for the movement of the adjustment plate, ensuring that the adjustment plate can be driven to the preset first position or second position.

[0014] Beneficial effects: Since the air inlet and the air outlet are relatively arranged on both sides of the shell, and the heat dissipation component is arranged on the side where the air inlet is located, cold air can smoothly enter the shell from the air inlet and flow directly to the heat dissipation component, effectively reducing the temperature of the heat dissipation component and its surrounding area; at the same time, hot air is quickly discharged through the air outlet, avoiding the retention and circulation of hot air inside the shell, thereby improving the overall heat dissipation efficiency; by arranging the connecting port between the heat dissipation component and the air outlet, it is ensured that the cold air generated by the heat dissipation component can efficiently flow to the adjacent server units.

[0015] In an optional embodiment, the shell further includes a lifting piece, which is arranged at the top of the shell and opposite to the connecting port; the server unit further includes a blocking component, which is movably arranged at the position where the connecting port is located, and has a blocking position for blocking the connecting port, and a separation position abutting against the lifting piece and separated from the connecting port.

[0016] Beneficial effect: By setting up the blocking component, it is ensured that the bottom of the server unit at the bottom layer in both the single-layer server unit and the multi-layer server unit stacking structure can be effectively sealed, which not only prevents external impurities and unregulated air from directly entering the server unit and causing potential damage to the internal components, but also provides a stable and closed working environment for the server unit, ensuring its normal operation and performance; when the server unit has multiple layers, the lifting piece abuts against the blocking component, prompting the blocking component to move to the separation position, thereby releasing the originally blocked connection port, realizing air circulation and heat exchange between the two adjacent layers of server units, ensuring the effective dispersion of heat between the multi-layer server units, and further improving the heat dissipation efficiency and stability of the entire server unit stacking structure.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, the blocking assembly includes a base plate and two guide inclined plates; the base plate is arranged inside the shell; in the second direction, both sides of the base plate are protruding with a first protrusion; and in the first direction, the bottom of the base plate is protruding from the first protrusion, and the bottom of the base plate is suitable for extending into the connecting port; in the first direction, one side of the base plate close to the connecting port is protruding with two second protrusions, and the two second protrusions are respectively arranged on both sides of the base plate along the second direction, and the second protrusions are suitable for extending into the connecting port; the two guide inclined plates are respectively arranged corresponding to the two second protrusions; in the first direction, one side of the guide inclined plate is connected to the bottom of the second protrusion, and the other side is provided with a guide The air inlet and the air outlet are respectively arranged on both sides of the shell along the third direction; the distance between the guide slope and the substrate gradually increases towards the side close to the air outlet; the lifting member is arranged in a rod-shaped structure, extending along the second direction, and the two ends of the lifting member are respectively connected to the two sides of the shell; when the blocking assembly is in the blocking position, the first protrusion abuts against the top of the bottom wall of the shell, the bottom of the substrate and the second protrusion are located in the connecting port, and the guide inclined plate passes through the connecting port and extends out of the bottom wall of the shell; when the blocking assembly is in the separation position, the guide slope abuts against the lifting member, and the side of the substrate close to the air outlet is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the shell.

[0018] Beneficial effect: Since the bottom of the substrate protrudes from the first protrusion, the bottom of the substrate can cooperate with the second protrusion to extend into and effectively block the connecting port, thereby ensuring the sealing of the server unit when the connection is not required; by setting a guide inclined plate and cooperating the guide inclined plate with the lifting piece, the side of the substrate close to the air outlet can be spaced apart from the bottom wall of the shell, and the blocking component is in a separated position at this time, allowing the connecting port to connect the server units of two adjacent layers; when the server unit in the middle position is repaired and needs to be reinstalled, when the shell of the server unit is pushed forward along the third direction, the setting of the guide inclined surface can avoid interference between the blocking component and the lifting piece, thereby facilitating the smooth advancement of the shell; and the guide inclined surface contacts and interacts with the lifting piece, and under the push of the lifting piece, the substrate is pushed upward, thereby releasing the connecting port, so that the server units of two adjacent layers can achieve air circulation and heat exchange through the connecting port.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, it further comprises a top cover, which is detachably covered on the top opening of the shell of the server unit on the top layer.

[0023] In an optional embodiment, the air outlet is a strip-shaped hole opened on the side wall of the shell, and a filter plate is connected to the side wall where the air outlet is provided.

[0024] Beneficial effect: By setting a filter plate at the air outlet, external impurities can be effectively prevented from entering the shell, thus avoiding damage to the components inside the shell or affecting the normal operation of the components inside the shell, and reducing the failure rate caused by impurity accumulation inside the shell, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are 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 those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Combine the following Figures 1 to 5 , describing an embodiment of the present invention.

[0039] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a server group is provided, comprising one or more layers of server units 1, wherein the server units 1 are arranged in sequence along a first direction; the server units 1 comprise a shell 11 and two groups of support components 12, wherein the two groups of support components 12 are respectively arranged on both sides of the shell 11 along a second direction and are detachably connected to the shell 11; the support components 12 extend along the first direction, and two adjacent layers of the support components 12 are plug-connected; and two adjacent layers of the shell 11 are slidably connected along a third direction; the first direction is a vertical direction, and the first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0040] Since the two adjacent layers of support components 12 are plug-in connected, when it is necessary to install a multi-layer server unit 1, it is only necessary to plug in the support components 12 of each layer in sequence along the first direction to achieve cabinet-free installation and firm fixation of the multi-layer server unit 1, thereby improving the flexibility and space utilization efficiency of the deployment of the server unit 1 and effectively saving the installation space; since the shell 11 and the support component 12 are detachably connected, and the adjacent two side shells 11 are slidably connected along the third direction, when a server unit 1 of a certain layer fails and needs maintenance, it is only necessary to separate and disassemble the support component 12 of the server unit 1 of that layer from the shell 11, and then move the shell 11 out along the third direction through the sliding mechanism, so that the faulty server unit 1 can be directly repaired. During this process, the position of the support component 12 remains unchanged and can still play a supporting role. The single-layer server can be repaired without making major adjustments to the entire structure, which simplifies the maintenance process, shortens the maintenance time, and improves the overall maintenance efficiency and convenience.

[0041] In one embodiment, the server unit 1 further includes a heat dissipation assembly 13 , and an air inlet 111 and an air outlet 112 are provided on the shell 11 ; the top of the shell 11 is open, and a communication port 113 is provided on the bottom of the shell 11 .

[0042] The heat dissipation design of the server unit 1 is realized by setting the heat dissipation component 13, the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 112; since the top opening of the shell 11 is set and the connecting port 113 is provided at the bottom of the shell 11, when multiple layers of servers are arranged in sequence along the first direction to form a multi-layer stacking structure, the air between adjacent server units 1 can be smoothly circulated and exchanged through the top opening and the bottom connecting port 113, thereby realizing effective dispersion of heat, promoting balanced distribution of temperature inside the server group, and providing strong guarantee for the continuous and stable operation of the server unit 1.

[0043] Specifically, the heat dissipation assembly 13 includes one or more positive-pressure fans, and the multiple positive-pressure fans are arranged in sequence along the second square.

[0044] In one embodiment, the server unit 1 further includes an adjustment component 14, which is located inside the shell 11 and is arranged at the position where the air outlet 112 is located; the adjustment component 14 has a first position for covering part of the air outlet 112, and a second position adjacent to the air outlet 112.

[0045] By setting the adjustment component 14 at the position where the air outlet 112 is located, when the function of the heat dissipation component 13 of one of the server units 1 is damaged, the adjustment components 14 of all the server units 1 in the same row will be adjusted to the preset first position, reducing the opening degree of the air outlet 112 of each server unit 1, increasing the air outlet damping of each server unit 1, and forcing the airflow to be redistributed to the inside of the adjacent server unit 1 through the connecting port 113 after the original path is blocked, and finally acting on the server unit 1 where the heat dissipation component 13 is damaged, ensuring that even if the heat dissipation component 13 of a server unit 1 fails, the remaining server units 1 can still be effectively cooled by shared airflow in an emergency, thereby maintaining the thermal management efficiency of the server unit 1 where the heat dissipation component 13 fails to a certain extent, reducing the risk of downtime of the server unit 1 due to heat dissipation failure, greatly shortening the potential fault recovery time, effectively improving the work efficiency and operation stability of the entire server group, and realizing the flexible adjustment of the opening degree of the air outlet 112 according to the heat dissipation requirements and system status, thereby optimizing the airflow distribution and heat dissipation efficiency.

[0046] In one embodiment, the adjustment component 14 includes a driving member 141 and an adjustment plate 142; the driving member 141 is arranged at the position of the air outlet 112 and is fixed on the shell 11; the adjustment plate 142 is fixedly connected to the driving end of the driving member 141 and is suitable for rotating under the drive of the driving member 141.

[0047] By setting the adjustment plate 142, a shielding effect on part of the air outlet 112 can be achieved; by setting the driving member 141, power is provided for the movement of the adjustment plate 142, ensuring that the adjustment plate 142 can be driven to the preset first position or second position.

[0048] In a specific embodiment, the driving member 141 is a stepping motor, and the adjusting plate 142 is an arc-shaped plate, which can rotate around a first direction under the drive of the stepping motor; and an arc-shaped section corresponding to the shape of the arc-shaped plate is opened on the inner wall of the shell 11 on the side close to the air outlet 112, and the arc-shaped section is located on the upper and lower sides of the air outlet 112 to avoid interference between the arc-shaped plate and the inner wall of the shell 11 during rotation.

[0049] In one embodiment, the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 112 are relatively arranged on two sides of the shell 11 , the heat dissipation component 13 is arranged on the side where the air inlet 111 is located, and the connecting port 113 is located between the heat dissipation component 13 and the air outlet 112 .

[0050] Since the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 112 are relatively arranged on both sides of the shell 11, and the heat dissipation component 13 is arranged on the side where the air inlet 111 is located, cold air can smoothly enter the shell 11 from the air inlet 111 and directly flow to the heat dissipation component 13, effectively reducing the temperature of the heat dissipation component 13 and its surrounding areas; at the same time, hot air is quickly discharged through the air outlet 112, avoiding the retention and circulation of hot air in the shell 11, thereby improving the overall heat dissipation efficiency; by arranging the connecting port 113 between the heat dissipation component 13 and the air outlet 112, it is ensured that the cold air generated by the heat dissipation component 13 can efficiently flow to the adjacent server unit 1.

[0051] In a specific implementation, the communication port 113 is disposed on a side close to the air inlet 111 .

[0052] In one embodiment, the shell 11 also includes a lifting piece 114, which is arranged at the top of the shell 11 and is arranged opposite to the connecting port 113; the server unit 1 also includes a blocking component 15, which is movably arranged at the position where the connecting port 113 is located, and has a blocking position for blocking the connecting port 113, and a separation position abutting against the lifting piece 114 and separated from the connecting port 113.

[0053] By providing the blocking component 15, it is ensured that the bottom of the server unit 1 at the bottom layer in either a single-layer server unit 1 or a multi-layer server unit 1 stacking structure can be effectively sealed, which not only prevents external impurities and unregulated air from directly entering the server unit 1 and causing potential damage to the internal components, but also provides a stable and closed working environment for the server unit 1, ensuring its normal operation and performance; when the server unit 1 is provided with multiple layers, the lifting member 114 abuts against the blocking component 15, prompting the blocking component 15 to move to the separation position, thereby releasing the originally blocked connecting port 113, realizing air circulation and heat exchange between two adjacent layers of server units 1, ensuring the effective dispersion of heat between the multi-layer server units 1, and further improving the heat dissipation efficiency and stability of the entire server unit 1 stacking structure.

[0054] In one embodiment, the blocking assembly 15 includes a base plate 151 and two guide inclined plates 154; the base plate 151 is arranged inside the shell 11; in the second direction, both sides of the base plate 151 are protruded with a first protrusion 152; and in the first direction, the bottom of the base plate 151 is protruded from the first protrusion 152, and the bottom of the base plate 151 is suitable for being extended into the communication port 113; in the first direction, one side of the base plate 151 close to the communication port 113 is protruded with two second protrusions 153, and the two second protrusions 153 are respectively arranged on both sides of the base plate 151 along the second direction, and the second protrusions 153 are suitable for being extended into the communication port 113; the two guide inclined plates 154 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two second protrusions 153; in the first direction, one side of the guide inclined plate 154 is connected to the bottom of the second protrusion 153, and the other side is provided with a guide inclined surface 15 41; the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 112 are respectively arranged on both sides of the shell 11 along the third direction; the distance between the guiding inclined surface 1541 and the base plate 151 gradually increases toward the side close to the air outlet 112; the lifting member 114 is arranged in a rod-shaped structure, extending along the second direction, and the two ends of the lifting member 114 are respectively connected to the two sides of the shell 11; when the blocking component 15 is in the blocking position, the first protrusion 152 abuts against the top of the bottom wall of the shell 11, the bottom of the base plate 151 and the second protrusion 153 are located in the connecting port 113, and the guiding inclined plate 154 passes through the connecting port 113 and extends out of the bottom wall of the shell 11; when the blocking component 15 is in the separation position, the guiding inclined surface 1541 abuts against the lifting member 114, and the side of the base plate 151 close to the air outlet 112 is spaced from the bottom wall of the shell 11.

[0055] Since the bottom of the substrate 151 protrudes from the first protrusion 152, the bottom of the substrate 151 can cooperate with the second protrusion 153 to extend into and effectively block the communication port 113, thereby ensuring the sealing of the server unit 1 when no connection is required; by setting the guide inclined plate 154 and matching the guide inclined plate 154 with the lifting member 114, the side of the substrate 151 close to the air outlet 112 can be spaced from the bottom wall of the shell 11. At this time, the blocking component 15 is in a separated position, allowing the communication port 113 to connect the server units of two adjacent layers. server unit 1; when the server unit 1 in the middle position is repaired and needs to be reinstalled, when the shell 11 of the server unit 1 is slid and pushed along the third direction, the setting of the guide slope 1541 can avoid interference between the blocking component 15 and the lifting member 114, so as to facilitate the smooth advancement of the shell 11; and the guide slope 1541 contacts and interacts with the lifting member 114. Under the push of the lifting member 114, the base plate 151 is pushed upward, thereby releasing the connecting port 113, so that the server units 1 of the two adjacent layers can achieve air circulation and heat exchange through the connecting port 113.

[0056] In a specific embodiment, when the server unit 1 needs to be repaired, the shell 11 is moved along the third direction to the side where the air inlet 111 is located, which can avoid interference between the guide inclined plate 154 and other components inside the shell 11 of the lower server unit 1; when the server unit 1 is repaired and needs to be reinstalled, the shell 11 is moved along the third direction from the side where the air outlet 112 is located to the side where the air inlet 111 is located, which can avoid interference between the guide inclined plate 154 and other components inside the shell 11 of the lower server unit 1, and can also avoid interference between the guide inclined plate 154 and the lifting piece 114 of the lower server unit 1, thereby ensuring that the repaired server unit 1 can be smoothly installed in place.

[0057] Preferably, a groove is provided on the bottom wall of the shell 11, and the connecting port 113 is arranged at the bottom of the groove. When the sealing component 15 is in the sealing position, the first protrusion 152 is located in the groove and abuts against the bottom of the groove. At this time, the top plane of the sealing component 15 is aligned with the top edge of the bottom wall of the shell 11, and together they form a continuous and flat plane, so that when the single-layer server unit 1 is in use, the sealing component 15 can not only effectively seal the connecting port 113, but also will not cause any physical interference or space restriction to other components inside the shell 11, so that the space inside the shell 11 is more efficiently utilized.

[0058] Preferably, the side of the base plate 151 close to the air inlet 111 is hinged to the bottom wall of the shell 11, thereby realizing a rotatable connection between the base plate 151 and the bottom wall of the shell 11, achieving stability and reliability of the blocking assembly 15 when switching between the blocking position and the separation position, and effectively preventing the position of the blocking assembly 15 from shifting during the switching process between the blocking position and the separation position.

[0059] In one embodiment, a top cover is further included, and the top cover is detachably covered on the top opening of the housing 11 of the server unit 1 on the top layer.

[0060] By providing a top cover at the top opening of the shell 11 of the server unit 1, the top opening of the shell 11 is fully and effectively covered, thereby protecting the circuits, components, etc. inside the server unit 1 from external environment such as dust and moisture, which helps to extend the service life of the server unit 1 and ensure its stable operation.

[0061] In one embodiment, one side of the housing 11 along the third direction is open to form the air inlet 111 , and a filter plate 16 is disposed at the air inlet 111 .

The top of the support rod 121 is provided with a first connecting groove 1211, and the bottom of the support rod 121 is provided with a first connecting protrusion 1212. The first connecting protrusion 1212 of the upper server unit 1 is plugged and connected with the first connecting groove 1211 of the lower server unit 1.

[0067] Since the support assembly 12 includes at least two support rods 121, and at least two support rods 121 are arranged in sequence along the third direction, the stability of the support assembly 12 supporting the shell 11 in the third direction is ensured; not only the structural stability of the shell 11 is enhanced, but also the load is effectively dispersed and the overall load-bearing capacity is improved. Through the setting of the first connecting groove 1211 and the first connecting protrusion 1212, the plug-in connection of the support assembly 12 between two adjacent layers is realized, so that the support assembly 12 can provide necessary support in the vertical direction.

[0068] In a specific embodiment, a first threaded hole is provided on the outer wall of the shell 11, and a second threaded hole is provided on the support rod 121. Fasteners such as bolts pass through the second threaded hole and are connected to the first threaded hole, thereby realizing a detachable connection between the support rod 121 and the shell 11.

[0069] In one implementation of the present embodiment, the support assembly 12 includes two support rods 121, which are respectively arranged at two ends of the housing 11 along the third direction; in another implementation of the present embodiment, the support assembly 12 includes three support rods 121, which are arranged in sequence along the third direction. Specifically, the number of support rods 121 can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0070] In one embodiment, a second connection groove 115 is provided on the top of the shell 11, and a second connection protrusion 116 is provided on the bottom of the shell 11; the second connection protrusion 116 of the upper server unit 1 is slidably connected to the second connection groove 115 of the lower server unit 1.

[0071] By setting the second connecting groove 115 and the second connecting protrusion 116, while realizing the sliding connection between two adjacent layers of server units 1, it also ensures the precise alignment of the server units 1 during the stacking installation process, effectively preventing the skewness or deviation caused by improper installation, thereby ensuring the overall stability and reliability of the multi-layer server unit 1 stack.

[0072] In a specific implementation, the support rod 121 and the housing 11 are first connected by bolts and other fasteners; when installing multiple layers of server units 1, they are installed layer by layer from bottom to top, and the first connection protrusion 1212 of the upper layer falls into the first connection groove 1211 of the lower layer, and the second connection protrusion 116 of the upper layer falls into the second connection groove 115 of the lower layer to achieve position fixing, and finally the cover plate 2 is installed at the top opening of the topmost server unit 1. When one layer of server units 1 fails, the housing 11 is pulled out by removing a plurality of bolts and other fasteners, and the remaining server units 1 are supported by the support rod 121. At this time, the cover plate 2 is covered at the top opening of the server unit 1 below the pulled out server unit 1, and at the same time, the blocking component 15 of the server unit 1 above the pulled out server unit 1 falls down under the action of gravity because it loses the support of the lifting member 114, thereby blocking the connecting port 113, and does not affect the normal operation of the server unit 1 above. When the maintenance is completed, after removing the cover plate 2 under the pulled out server unit 1, the shell 11 of the repaired server unit 1 is inserted. During the insertion, the lifting member 114 contacts the guide slope 1541, and the guide slope 154 is lifted upward, so that the side of the base plate 151 close to the air outlet 112 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the shell 11, thereby realizing the connection between the repaired server unit 1 and the adjacent server unit 1 through the connecting port 113.

[0073] In a specific embodiment, when the positive pressure fan of one of the server units 1 is damaged, the stepper motor of the server units 1 in the same row is activated to drive the adjustment plate 142 at the position of the air outlet 112 to rotate to the first position, thereby reducing the opening of the air outlet 112 and increasing the air outlet damping of the server unit 1, so that the gas is forced to be distributed to the adjacent server unit 1 through the connecting port 113, and finally acts on the server unit 1 with the damaged heat dissipation component 13, thereby playing an emergency heat dissipation role for the server unit 1 with the damaged heat dissipation component 13.

[0074] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
