[0066] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0067] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0068] It should be noted that the directional words such as "upper end, lower end, left side, right side" described below are all defined based on the drawings in the specification.
[0069] Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the server cabinet provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a cabinet body 10 , a moving component 30 , a moving control device 40 and a plug-in locking device 50 .
[0070] The cabinet 10 includes an outer shell 12 and a support frame 13 . The support frame 13 is fixed to the inner wall of the outer shell 12 . The support frame 13 is used to support the entire structure of the outer shell 12 to ensure the overall stability of the cabinet 10 .
[0071] The cabinet 10 is provided with a mounting assembly 20, which includes a plurality of mounting strips 21. Each mounting strip 21 is provided with first holes 211 sequentially arranged at intervals along a first direction. The first direction may be the Z-axis direction as shown in FIG.
[0072] The moving component 30 is movably connected to the mounting component 20 . The moving component 30 is used to place the server and drive the server to move relative to the mounting component 20 along a first direction. The moving component 30 is provided with a second hole 311 .
[0073] The mobile control device 40 is disposed in the cabinet 10, and is used to control the movement of the mobile assembly 30 relative to the installation assembly 20. In this way, the mobile control device 40 controls the movement of the mobile assembly 30 relative to the installation assembly 20, and as the mobile assembly 30 moves along the first direction, the server on the mobile assembly 30 can adjust the position in the cabinet 10.
[0074] The plug-in locking device 50 is arranged on the moving component 30 , and the plug-in locking device 50 includes a plug-in control component 51 and a latch 52 . The plug-in control component 51 is used to control the latch 52 to be inserted into the second hole 311 and the corresponding first hole 211 along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction to lock the moving component 30 .
[0075] The second direction may be the X-axis direction as shown in FIG. 2 .
[0076] When the mobile component 30 moves to the specified position, the movement of the latch 52 is controlled and the latch 52 is inserted into the second hole 311 and the corresponding first hole 211 to lock the mobile component 30 at the specified position on the installation component 20, thereby ensuring that the mobile component 30 and the server thereon are accurately locked at the required adjustment position.
[0077] In this way, when performing maintenance work on the server in the cabinet 10, the mobile control device 40 is used to control the movement of the mobile component 30 relative to the installation component 20, so that the position of the server to be maintained can be flexibly adjusted relative to the cabinet 10. After the position of the server to be maintained is adjusted, the plug-in control component 51 is used to control the pin 52 to be inserted into the second hole 311 and the corresponding first hole 211 to lock the mobile component 30, thereby facilitating the operator to perform maintenance work on the server.
[0078] Due to the large overall weight of the server, currently, when workers install and maintain the server inside the server cabinet, they need to rely entirely on manual handling to adjust the position of the server inside the cabinet 10. This not only increases the physical burden on the operators, but may also cause accidents during the handling process, such as collisions, falls, etc., causing damage to the server.
[0079] In contrast, when the server cabinet provided by the present application needs to adjust the position of the server in the cabinet 10, the mobile control device 40 is used to control the movement of the mobile component 30 relative to the installation component 20, so that the server can be flexibly adjusted relative to the cabinet 10. The setting of the mobile component 30 allows the server to be maintained to move along the installation component 20, providing flexibility in adjusting the position of the server in the cabinet 10. At the same time, the integrated setting of the mobile control device 40 allows the operator to easily control the movement of the server, avoiding manual handling and improving operation and maintenance efficiency. In addition, after the server is moved to the designated position, the plug-in locking device 50 can ensure that the server at the designated position is firmly locked to prevent the server from accidentally moving, which makes it convenient for the operator to perform maintenance work on the server, solving the problem of inconvenience in server installation and maintenance caused by the inability to flexibly and reliably adjust the position of the server in the server cabinet.
[0080] In order to solve the technical problems of poor heat dissipation effect and high energy consumption of the cabinet, a vent is provided on the cabinet body 10, and the vent is used to allow cold air outside the cabinet to enter the cabinet to dissipate heat for the working parts of the cabinet. The server cabinet also includes a ventilation device 60, which is arranged on the vent. The ventilation device 60 is used to control the opening and closing of the vent, and is used to control the opening of the vent according to actual heat dissipation needs.
[0081] Please refer to FIG. 3 , the ventilation device 60 includes a fixed plate 61, a fixed shaft 62, a sealing plate 63 and a telescopic driving member 64. There are two fixed plates 61, and the two fixed plates 61 are respectively fixed to the inner walls of the cabinet 10 on both sides of the vent. The two fixed plates 61 are symmetrically distributed on the vertical center line of the sealing plate 63. The fixed shaft 62 is connected between the two fixed plates 61. The fixed shaft 62 is used to connect the fixed plates 61 on both sides. The sealing plate 63 is movably arranged between the two fixed plates 61. The sealing plate 63 is used to move along a first direction to open and close the vent. One end of the telescopic driving member 64 is hinged to the sealing plate 63, and the other end is hinged to the fixed shaft 62. The telescopic driving member 64 is used to drive the sealing plate 63 to move relative to the two fixed plates 61 along the first direction to open the vent when the temperature in the cabinet 10 reaches a threshold.
[0082] Specifically, the vent is adjusted by moving the sealing plate 63 to adjust the temperature inside the cabinet 10. The positions of the two fixed plates 61 determine the track or space for the movement of the sealing plate 63 to ensure the movement range of the sealing plate 63. The telescopic drive member 64 can be a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod, one end of which is hinged to the sealing plate 63, and the other end is hinged to the fixed shaft 62, which is used to drive the sealing plate 63 to move in the first direction. The fixed shaft 62 serves as a fixed point of the device. One end of the telescopic drive member 64 is hinged to the fixed shaft 62 to provide the force required to move the sealing plate 63.
[0083] In addition, at least one temperature sensor may be disposed inside the server cabinet, and the temperature sensor is used to monitor the temperature inside the cabinet 10 .
[0084] In this way, through the cooperation of the temperature sensor and the telescopic drive member 64, automatic temperature control can be achieved, energy efficiency and operation convenience can be improved, and the telescopic drive member 64 can accurately control the position of the sealing plate 63, thereby accurately adjusting the opening of the vent to meet different ventilation needs. For example, when the temperature in the cabinet 10 is too high, the vent is automatically opened, which can effectively dissipate heat and reduce the increase in energy consumption caused by overheating.
[0085] This setting can prevent the equipment in the cabinet from being damaged due to overheating by maintaining a suitable temperature, thereby extending the service life of the equipment. At the same time, automated control also reduces the need for manual monitoring and intervention, reducing maintenance costs.
[0086] In order to facilitate the movement of the sealing plate 63, the two fixed plates 61 are provided with a moving groove 611, and the back of the sealing plate 63 is connected to a moving rod 65, and the two ends of the moving rod 65 are respectively movably arranged in the two moving grooves 611. One end of the telescopic driving member 64 is hinged to the moving rod 65, and the other end is hinged to the fixed shaft 62.
[0087] In this way, when the temperature inside the cabinet is too high, the telescopic driving member 64 contracts, pulling the moving rod 65 to move upward, and then the moving rod 65 drives the sealing plate 63 to move upward to open the vent.
[0088] Moreover, the moving groove 611 is bent, and the sealing plate 63 is configured to be staggered with the cabinet 10 during the movement of the moving rod 65 , so that external cold air can enter the interior of the cabinet 10 from both sides of the sealing plate 63 .
[0089] In some embodiments, the movable groove 611 may be a Z-shaped groove body, and the movable groove 611 includes a first groove, a second groove and a third groove, and the first groove, the second groove and the third groove are connected in sequence from bottom to top, wherein the two ends of the second groove are respectively connected to the first groove and the third groove, and the second groove is inclined to the first groove or the third groove, and the first groove and the third groove both extend along the first direction, and the first groove and the third groove are not in the same plane, and the two are staggered with each other in the plane where the fixed plate 61 is located.
[0090] In this arrangement, the movement of the sealing plate 63 is guided by the sliding of the moving rod 65 inside the moving groove 611. When the moving rod 65 moves from the first groove to the second groove, the sealing plate 63 moves upward to open the vent, and at the same time, it will flip outward at a preset angle relative to the cabinet body 10, so that the sealing plate 63 is offset from the cabinet body 10 by a certain space during the movement. This action quickly increases the opening area on the side of the cabinet, allowing external cold air to enter the cabinet at a higher flow rate and exchange with the internal hot air, thereby effectively reducing the temperature of the cabinet.
[0091] It can be understood that according to the above-mentioned setting, external cold air can enter the interior of the cabinet through the air inlet area. The area of the air inlet area, in addition to the front air inlet area opened by the upward movement of the sealing plate 63, also includes at least the side air inlet area that is staggered from the cabinet body 10 after the sealing plate 63 is flipped outward at a preset angle relative to the cabinet body 10.
[0092] In some embodiments, the server cabinet also includes a control module 70, which is communicatively connected to the telescopic drive member 64. The control module 70 is used to calculate the air volume that needs to pass through the vent when the temperature value in the cabinet is lower than the set threshold value based on the air pressure value and the temperature value in the cabinet when the temperature value in the cabinet is higher than the set threshold value, and to calculate the target position that the sealing plate 63 needs to reach based on the air volume, and to transmit control instructions to the telescopic drive member 64 according to the target position to control the telescopic drive member 64 to perform a contraction action.
[0093] In some embodiments, the server cabinet further includes a detection module, which is integrated on the control module 70 and is in communication with the control module 70, and is used to detect air pressure and temperature. The detection module includes an air pressure detection unit and a temperature detection unit, the air pressure detection unit is used to detect the air pressure value in the cabinet 10, and the temperature detection unit is used to detect the temperature value in the cabinet 10.
[0094] The control module 70 is connected to the server inside the device and to the external network to facilitate remote control of the cabinet. The control module 70 integrates a high-precision air pressure detection unit, a temperature detection unit and an intelligent algorithm. When the temperature T inside the cabinet rises to a set threshold, the control module 70 responds quickly and sends a command to the telescopic drive 64 to drive it to retract. The control module 70 automatically controls the movement of the sealing plate 63 according to the following algorithm:
[0095] P_in(LWH)=n(RT)
[0096] n=V / V m
[0097] Among them, P_in is the air pressure inside the cabinet, L, W, H are the length, width, and height of the cabinet respectively, and n is the amount of substance (V is the gas volume, V m is the standard gas molar volume), R is the ideal gas constant, and T is the temperature inside the cabinet.
[0098] It should be noted that the air volume refers to the volume of air passing through a certain cross section per unit time. If the area of the vent increases, the air volume will also increase accordingly. In this embodiment, the control module 70 monitors the air pressure value P_in and the temperature value T in the cabinet. When the temperature value T in the cabinet is higher than a certain set threshold, in order to control the temperature in the cabinet to be lower than this threshold, the control module 70 obtains the air volume that needs to pass according to the above algorithm, that is, the gas volume V, wherein the air volume or gas volume V passing is related to the opening and closing size of the sealing plate 63, and the two are proportional. Therefore, the control module 70 can obtain the specific size A_open of the opening and closing of the sealing plate 63 according to this proportional relationship, and a certain time delay is set during implementation to ensure that the actual temperature in the cabinet meets the requirements.
[0099] In this way, when the temperature value in the cabinet is higher than the set threshold, the control module 70 can calculate the air volume that needs to pass through the vent when the temperature value is lower than the set threshold based on the air pressure value and temperature value in the cabinet, and calculate the target position that the sealing plate 63 needs to reach based on the air volume, and is used to transmit control instructions to the telescopic drive member 64 according to the target position, and control the telescopic drive member 64 to retract, so that the specific size of the opening and closing of the sealing plate 63 satisfies the air volume that needs to pass through the vent when the temperature value is lower than the set threshold.
[0100] Specifically, when the temperature value in the cabinet is higher than the set threshold, the control module 70 adjusts the position of the sealing plate 63 according to A_open, and then controls the telescopic driving member 64 to contract, and the telescopic driving member 64 pulls the moving rod 65 to move upward, and then the moving rod 65 drives the sealing plate 63 to move upward, so that air can enter the interior of the cabinet 10 from both sides. Under the same environmental conditions (such as room temperature 25°C, external wind speed 2m / s), when the automatic ventilation system is not turned on, the internal temperature of the cabinet may continue to maintain at around 50°C; after the system is enabled, with the opening of the sealing plate 63, the internal temperature of the cabinet can quickly drop to below 40°C within a few minutes, and The air convection speed is increased by about 30%-50% compared to when it is not turned on. The specific increase depends on the area of the cover 63 opened and the external wind speed conditions, thereby enhancing the ventilation effect of the cabinet. At the same time, the control module 70 can adjust the size of the open area of the cover 63 according to the temperature of the internal core of the server. The moving rod 65 slides inside the moving groove 611 to guide the movement of the cover 63, so that the cover 63 is offset from the cabinet body 10 by a certain space during the movement. This action quickly increases the opening area on the side of the cabinet, allowing external cold air to enter the cabinet at a higher flow rate and exchange with the internal hot air, thereby effectively reducing the cabinet temperature.
[0101] In some embodiments, the cabinet 10 includes a cabinet door 11, on which a user operation module 80 is provided. The user operation module 80 is communicatively connected to the control module 70. The user operation module 80 is used to transmit user operation instructions to the control module 70 and to display temperature parameters and pressure parameters in the cabinet 10.
[0102] In this embodiment, the user operation module 80 may be a touch screen or a display screen, which is used to display and adjust various technical parameters in the cabinet.
[0103] In some embodiments, the installation assembly 20 includes two groups of installation bars 21, and any of the installation bars 21 is provided with first holes 211 sequentially arranged in intervals along the first direction. Correspondingly, the moving assembly 30 includes a connecting frame 31 and a moving plate 32. The two groups of connecting frames 31 are detachably connected to the two groups of installation bars 21 in a one-to-one correspondence, and the moving plate 32 is fixed on the two groups of connecting frames 31. The moving plate 32 is used to place the server and is used to move relative to the installation assembly 20 along the first direction.
[0104] Specifically, the moving plate 32 is a rectangular plate body, and a connecting frame 31 is disposed at each of the four corners of the moving plate 32. There are four mounting bars 21, and the four mounting bars 21 are disposed opposite to each other in pairs inside the supporting frame 13. In this way, when the moving plate 32 moves along the first direction, the second hole 311 on the connecting frame 31 cooperates with the first hole 211 on the corresponding mounting bar 21, so that the position of the moving plate 32 is fixed after the latch 52 is inserted.
[0105] Please refer to Figures 4 and 5 together. The plug-in control assembly 51 includes a cover 511, a connecting shaft 512, a screw 513 and a moving seat 514.

[0106] The two screw rods 513 are symmetrically distributed on the vertical center line of the connecting shaft 512. The thread directions of the two screw rods 513 arranged on both sides of the connecting shaft 512 are opposite, so that when the connecting shaft 512 rotates, the screw rods 513 at both ends can move toward or away from each other.
[0107] Furthermore, the movable seat 514 is provided with a guide groove 5141, and the movable plate 32 is provided with a guide rail 321. The guide groove 5141 and the guide rail 321 are slidably matched to limit the rotation of the movable seat 514 to guide the movement of the movable seat 514 so that the movable seat 514 moves along the second direction.
[0108] It should be noted that the moving seat 514 includes a moving part and a connecting part. The connecting part and the moving part are an integrally formed structure. The moving part is provided with a guide groove 5141 and a screw hole for screwing the screw 513. The connecting part is vertically arranged on the moving part. The end of the connecting part is connected to the latch 52, and the axis of the latch 52 is parallel to the axis of the moving part. In this way, under the rotation of the screw 513 and the guiding action of the guide structure, the moving seat 514 moves along the second direction and drives the latch 52 to insert into the second hole 311 and the corresponding first hole 211, so as to fix the position of the moving plate 32 and the server thereon.
[0109] In addition, the connecting frame 31 is connected to the movable plate 32 via a connecting block 33 . The connecting block 33 is provided with a threaded hole, and the screw rod 513 is threadedly matched with the threaded hole.
[0110] Of course, according to actual needs, the connecting block 33 can be a triangular connecting block, which is used to connect the corresponding connecting frame 31 and the moving plate 32 to strengthen the strength of the overall structure composed of the moving plate 32 and each connecting frame 31. At the same time, the connecting block 33 can also serve as a supporting structure for the connecting shaft 512. The connecting block 33 is provided with a threaded hole, and the connecting shaft 512 is screwed into the threaded hole to support the screw rod 513 and ensure the rotation stability of the screw rod 513.
[0111] In some embodiments, there are two plug-in locking devices 50, the two plug-in locking devices 50 are relatively arranged on the bottom surface of the movable plate 32, the two plug-in locking devices 50 are arranged on the bottom surfaces on both sides of the movable plate 32 along the third direction, and the connecting shafts 512 of the two plug-in locking devices 50 are connected by a transmission belt 53.
[0112] Furthermore, in order to facilitate driving the two plug-in locking devices 50 to operate, each screw rod 513 of the two plug-in locking devices 50 is selectively connected to a driving handle 54 , and the two plug-in locking devices 50 are driven to operate by operating the driving handle 54 .
[0113] In this way, by operating the driving handle 54, the connecting shaft 512 of the locking device 50 on one side is linked to the connecting shaft 512 of the locking device 50 on the other side, so that the four pins 52 are respectively inserted into the corresponding second holes 311 and the first holes 211, and the position of the movable plate 32 and the server thereon in the cabinet 10 is locked by fixing the four corners.
[0114] In some embodiments, the number of the mobile control devices 40 is two, and the two mobile control devices 40 are respectively disposed inside the supporting frame 13 on both sides along the third direction to control the movement of the mobile component 30 relative to the mounting component 20, and the third direction, the second direction and the first direction are perpendicular to each other;
[0115] The third direction may be the Y-axis direction as shown in FIG. 2 .
[0116] Please also refer to FIG. 6 , the movement control device 40 includes a slide rod 41 , a threaded rod 42 , a slider 43 , a threaded sleeve 44 , a connecting rod 45 , a supporting assembly 46 and a driving assembly 47 . Among them, the sliding rod 41 and the threaded rod 42 are arranged parallel to each other inside the supporting frame 13 on both sides along the second direction, the sliding rod 41 and the threaded rod 42 both extend along the first direction, the sliding rod 41 is fixed to the supporting frame 13, the threaded rod 42 is rotatably connected to the supporting frame 13, the sliding block 43 slides with the sliding rod 41, the sliding block 43 is used to slide relative to the sliding rod 41 along the first direction, the screw sleeve 44 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 42, the screw sleeve 44 is used to slide along the axial direction of the threaded rod 42 under the rotation of the threaded rod 42, the connecting rod 45 is connected between the sliding block 43 and the screw sleeve 44, the connecting rod 45 extends along the second direction, the supporting assembly 46 is arranged on the connecting rod 45, and is located on the same straight line along the first direction as the cover shell 511, the supporting assembly 46 is used to support the cover shell 511 to drive the moving assembly 30 to move, and the driving assembly 47 is installed at the rotating end of the threaded rod 42, and the driving assembly 47 is used to drive the threaded rod 42 to rotate relative to the supporting frame 13.
[0117] Of course, the driving component 47 can be a driving motor, and the screw sleeve 44 and the threaded rod 42 form a screw transmission mechanism. In this way, the driving motor provides a selected driving force to drive the threaded rod 42 to rotate around the axis of the first direction, so that the screw sleeve 44, the connecting rod 45, the supporting component 46 and the slider 43 slide under the guidance of the sliding rod 41, thereby achieving the purpose of supporting the moving component 30 and driving the moving component 30 to move.
[0118] In some embodiments, the supporting assembly 46 includes a connecting seat 461, a bracket 462 and an elastic member. The connecting seat 461 is arranged on the connecting rod 45, the bracket 462 is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting seat 461, the bracket 462 is used to rotate relative to the connecting seat 461 along the axis of the second direction, the two ends of the elastic member are respectively connected to the bracket 462 and the connecting seat 461, and the elastic member is used to provide elastic force to the bracket 462 so that the bracket 462 has a tendency to rotate back into the connecting seat 461.
[0119] It should be noted that the bracket 462 and the cover 511 are arranged to be located on the same vertical center line. In the process of the bracket 462 moving up and down, the bracket 462 can be first rotated relative to the connection seat 461 under the push of the cover 511 and then opened, and then supported the cover 511 after rotating a certain angle. Among them, the bracket 462 can be arranged to be stored in the connection seat 461 in the vertical position and to be opened in the horizontal position, that is, the bracket 462 is opened relative to the connection seat 461 after rotating 90°, so as to achieve the purpose of supporting the cover 511 from the bottom.
[0120] Of course, according to actual needs, the elastic member can be a torsion spring, which is used to provide elastic force to the bracket 462 after the bracket 462 completes the supporting task, so that the bracket 462 is reset to the connecting seat 461.
[0121] In some embodiments, a power assembly may be provided on the connection seat 461, and the power assembly provides power so that the bracket 462 can rotate relative to the connection seat 461 at an appropriate position to achieve opening, and after completing the supporting work, the bracket 462 is driven by the power assembly to be retracted into the connection seat 461. Of course, the power assembly may also be a telescopic power assembly.
[0122] When the height of the server needs to be adjusted, the drive assembly 47 is started, so that the threaded rod 42 uses the thread to drive the screw sleeve 44 to rise and fall, and the screw sleeve 44 is used to move the connecting seat 461 to the bottom of the movable plate 32, and the bracket 462 is pushed to rotate so that the bracket 462 leaves the interior of the connecting seat 461, and the connecting seat 461 is lifted by the bracket 462 and the cover shell 511 by bringing the bracket 462 into contact with the cover shell 511, so as to adjust the position of the movable plate 32, and the movement of the connecting seat 461 is guided by the sliding of the slider 43 on the slide rod 41 to reduce the shaking of the connecting seat 461, and the bracket 462 is rotated and retracted into the interior of the connecting seat 461 when idle, so that the bracket 462 is not easily collided with or contacted with other movable plates 32 during movement.
[0123] In some embodiments, the server cabinet may also be provided with a visual acquisition module, which may collect information of the operator, such as height information. Specifically, the visual acquisition module includes a camera and a bracket, and the camera may be movably mounted on the bracket. The camera, as the main component of the visual acquisition module, is used to capture the image or video data of the operator. The bracket is located on the front side of the cabinet (the so-called front side is the side of the cabinet 10 close to the cabinet door 11). The bracket is used to fix the camera and allow it to move within a certain range to adjust the shooting angle and field of view. The visual acquisition module may collect the height information of the operator and transmit the height information of the operator to the control module 70 inside the cabinet 10.
[0124] Furthermore, the control module 70 can integrate the received height information of the operator and the information of the server to be maintained inside the cabinet, and calculate the height to which the server to be maintained needs to be adjusted, and the height is specifically adapted to the operator, that is, the server to be maintained is adjusted to the position that is most comfortable and convenient for the operator to perform maintenance operations. Afterwards, the control module 70 transmits the height signal to the drive component 47 of the mobile control device 40, and the drive component 47 executes the instruction to adjust the height of the mobile plate 32 and the corresponding server.
[0125] In this way, by collecting the height information of the operator, the control module 70 can automatically adjust the position or height of the server to be maintained inside the cabinet to adapt to operators of different heights, thereby improving the comfort and convenience of the operator's maintenance of the server. In addition, in addition to height information, the camera can also be used to collect other operation-related data, such as the operator's identity verification information, to further enhance security.
[0126] In addition, the cabinet body 10 also includes a first air intake fence net 14, a second air intake fence net 15, a top cover 16, a back plate 17 and other structures. The first air intake fence net 14 is arranged inside one side of the cabinet door 11, and the second air intake fence net 15 is fixed inside the back plate 17 to achieve a filtering effect on the intake air. The top cover 16 is fixed to the top of the outer shell 12.
[0127] When the server cabinet is in use: open the cabinet door 11, open the cabinet body 10, connect the movable plate 32 to the server by bolts, then insert the movable plate 32 into the cabinet body 10 at an angle, and adjust the movable plate 32 so that each connecting frame 31 is located on the outside of the corresponding mounting strip 21, and lock and fix the connecting frame 31 and the mounting strip 21 by the plug-in locking device 50. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the server, use the mobile control device 40 to assist in lifting the movable plate 32, and adjust the position of the server inside the cabinet body 10. When the temperature inside the device is too high, use the ventilation device 60 to expand the ventilation range of the cabinet to quickly discharge the hot air and reduce the energy consumption of the cabinet.
[0128] In summary, the server cabinet provided in the present application, on the one hand, drives the threaded rod 42 to rotate through the driving component 47 to drive the screw sleeve 44 to rise and fall, and uses the bracket 462 to lift the movable plate 32 through the cover shell 511 to facilitate the up and down adjustment of the position of the movable plate 32, thereby realizing the auxiliary lifting function, significantly reducing the manpower requirements, and at the same time being able to adjust the height and position of the server as needed, thereby facilitating subsequent management and maintenance work, which can significantly shorten the server deployment cycle and facilitate the removal of the server for maintenance. On the other hand, through the perfect combination of precise control and efficient heat dissipation, it is achieved that while ensuring the stable operation of the equipment, energy consumption is greatly reduced. Specifically, the cabinet adopts advanced control technology. The control module 70 integrates high-precision temperature sensors and intelligent algorithms, which can monitor the temperature changes inside the cabinet in real time and automatically adjust the working state of the telescopic drive member 64 accordingly. When the temperature inside the cabinet rises to the set threshold, the control module 70 responds quickly and sends an instruction to the telescopic drive member 64 to drive it to retract. This action drives the moving rod 65 and the sealing plate 63 thereon to move upward smoothly and quickly through a precise mechanical transmission system. As the sealing plate 63 gradually moves upward, the openings on both sides of the cabinet that were originally closed gradually expand, forming an efficient air circulation channel. This design cleverly utilizes the principle of natural convection, allowing the relatively cool air from the outside to smoothly enter the cabinet through the enlarged opening and fully exchange heat with the hot air inside. In this way, the heat inside the cabinet can be more directly and efficiently dissipated to the external environment through the side panel openings, thereby effectively reducing the accumulation of heat inside the cabinet and avoiding the occurrence of local overheating. At the same time, the continuous replenishment of cold air further improves the air circulation efficiency inside the cabinet, providing a more stable and suitable working environment for core equipment such as servers.
