Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] As the performance requirements of artificial intelligence (AI) servers continue to upgrade, not only do computing nodes need to be efficiently interconnected with switches, but graphics processing unit (GPU) nodes also need to establish connections with switches. These GPU nodes must also be compatible with network card configurations of multiple speeds to meet the diverse needs of customers in different application scenarios.

[0003] Currently, to accommodate the addition of network cards to GPU nodes, the industry's common approach is to add a new panel area to the chassis panel to install and secure the network card module. However, this approach often requires significant adjustments to the existing chassis structure. Whether creating a new chassis mold or revising the existing one, this inevitably leads to a significant increase in costs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a server to solve the problem that the original chassis structure needs to be significantly adjusted to meet the demand for adding a new network card configuration to a graphics processor node, resulting in a significant increase in cost.

[0005] The present invention provides a server, including a chassis and a network card module; the chassis is provided with a fan frame, and the fan frame is provided with a plurality of fixing slots, and the fixing slots are used to install the fan module; the network card module is detachably connected to the fixing slots and is used to be installed in the corresponding fixing slots after the fan module is removed.

[0006] The network card module is detachably connected to the fixed slot, so it can be installed in the preset fixed slot in the chassis, making full use of the original fan frame design of the chassis, thereby avoiding additional changes to the chassis structure; it allows the fan module in the fixed slot at any position to be flexibly replaced with the required network card module according to actual needs without changing the chassis mold. This flexible modular design not only fully meets the expansion needs of system functions, but also ensures the optimization and upgrade of hardware configuration without increasing the cost of the chassis.

[0007] In an optional embodiment, a force-bearing member is provided in the fixing groove, and the network card module includes a frame structure and a rotating handle. The rotating handle is arranged at one end of the frame structure away from the interior of the chassis and is rotatably connected to the frame structure. The rotating handle has an installation position for engaging with the force-bearing member and a disengagement position for disengaging from the force-bearing member.

[0008] By setting the rotating handle at the end of the frame structure away from the inside of the chassis, it is convenient for the operator to grasp and move the entire network card module from the outside; the force-bearing member set in the fixed groove cooperates with the rotating handle, so that the network card module can be firmly fixed in the required position; and the rotatable connection design between the rotating handle and the frame structure allows the operator to connect or disconnect the frame structure and the force-bearing member in the fixed groove by rotating the handle, which simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the network card module, improves the convenience and flexibility of operation, reduces the difficulty of operation, and improves work efficiency.

[0009] In an optional embodiment, the rotating handle includes two handle pieces and an assist piece; the two handle pieces are respectively arranged on both sides of the frame structure, and the handle pieces are rotatably connected to the frame structure; the two ends of the assist piece are respectively fixedly connected to the two handle pieces; the assist piece has a fixed position connected to the frame structure, and a separated position separated from the frame structure; when the rotating handle is in the installation position, the assist piece is in the fixed position; when the rotating handle is in the disengaged position, the assist piece is in the separated position.

[0010] By setting two handles on both sides of the frame structure, it is ensured that both sides of the network card module can be reliably connected to the fixing slot, thereby enhancing the stability and safety of the network card module installation; by setting a power assist piece, the operator only needs to operate with one hand to achieve simultaneous control of the two handles, which not only simplifies the operation process and reduces the difficulty of operation, but also significantly improves work efficiency and ensures that the installation process is fast and smooth.

[0011] In an optional embodiment, the handle member includes a force-bearing end and a power-assisting end; the force-bearing end has a first locking position and a second locking position that are locked with different force points of the force-bearing member; the power-assisting end is connected to the power-assisting member; when the force-bearing end is in the first locking position, the power-assisting end rotates to assist the connection between the network card module and the fixed slot; when the force-bearing end is in the second locking position, the power-assisting end rotates to assist the separation of the network card module from the fixed slot.

[0012] Since the torque required to connect and disconnect the network card module from the fixed slot is constant, the setting of the power-assisting end can significantly reduce the force required to act on the power-assisting end based on the lever principle, allowing the operator to input less force, thereby achieving a significant labor-saving effect and making the installation of the network card module more convenient and efficient.

[0013] In an optional embodiment, a groove is provided on the side of the force-bearing end facing away from the power-assisting end, and when the rotating handle is in the installation position, the force-bearing member is located in the groove.

[0014] Through the setting of the groove, when the rotary handle is in the installation position, the force-bearing member in the fixed groove will be embedded in the groove, effectively preventing the network card module from moving or offsetting when subjected to external force, and ensuring the network card module is firmly installed in the fixed slot, avoiding the risk of falling off due to accidental collision or vibration during transportation or use.

[0015] In an optional embodiment, the groove includes a first side wall and a second side wall, and the first side wall and the second side wall are arranged opposite to each other; when the force-bearing end is in the first locking position, the force-bearing member abuts against the first side wall; when the force-bearing end is in the second locking position, the force-bearing member abuts against the second side wall.

[0016] When the force-bearing end is in the first locking position, the force-bearing member will form a tight abutment state with the first side wall, ensuring that when the handle member starts to rotate, the force-bearing member can use the contact point with the first side wall as a rotation fulcrum, effectively converting the rotational force of the handle member into a driving force for pushing the network card module to be inserted into the fixed slot; when the force-bearing end is in the second locking position, the force-bearing member will form a tight abutment state with the second side wall, ensuring that when the handle member starts to rotate, the force-bearing member can use the contact point with the second side wall as a rotation fulcrum, effectively converting the rotational force of the handle member into the driving force required to pull out the network card module; through the setting of the first side wall and the second side wall, it is ensured that the force-bearing member can maintain a stable abutment state with the force-bearing end in different locking positions, thereby improving the stability and efficiency of the network card module insertion and removal process.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, the network card module also includes a torsion spring, a limiting groove is provided in the frame structure, and a through hole is provided at one end of the limiting groove close to the handle member; the torsion spring is located in the limiting groove, and one torsion arm of the torsion spring passes through the through hole and is connected to the rotating handle, and the other torsion arm is connected to the groove wall of the limiting groove.

[0018] Through the setting of the torsion spring, when the assisting member is connected to the frame structure at a preset fixed position, the torsion spring is placed in a compressed energy storage state. Once the assisting member and the frame structure are decoupled at the separation position, the torsion spring will use its accumulated elastic potential energy as a power source to drive the rotating handle to automatically pop open, thereby optimizing the operating process and ensuring that when the assisting member is in the separation position, the rotating handle can be quickly and automatically separated from the frame structure, providing the operator with an easy-to-grip handle, facilitating subsequent plugging and unplugging operations, and improving the convenience and efficiency of the overall operation.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, an installation space is provided in the frame structure; the network card module also includes one or more trays, multiple trays are arranged in sequence in the vertical direction in the installation space, and a network card is installed in each tray; a avoidance opening is provided at the bottom of the tray, a radiator is provided on the network card, and the radiator is connected to the network card and is located at the avoidance opening.

[0020] By setting up an avoidance opening, not only the weight of the pallet can be reduced, but also the heat dissipation capacity of the pallet can be enhanced. The other end of the radiator can be extended to the external space of the pallet, removing the physical restriction of the pallet on the radiator height and achieving decoupling between the pallet and the radiator height, thereby maximizing the radiator height design and ensuring the optimization of the heat dissipation effect.

[0021] In an optional embodiment, a slide is protruded from the inner wall of the installation space, the slide is arranged along the installation direction of the tray, and the tray is slidably connected to the slide.

[0022] By setting the slide, the sliding path of the tray is guided to ensure that the tray can slide in the preset direction.

[0023] In an optional embodiment, a stop groove is provided on the top of the tray, and the stop groove is located at one end of the tray close to the rotating handle; a limiting protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the installation space, and the limiting protrusion and the slide are spaced apart in the vertical direction, and the stop groove and the limiting protrusion are slidably engaged.

[0024] By setting the stop groove and the limiting protrusion, when the pallet slides in the installation space, the limiting protrusion will interact with the stop groove, and can achieve precise limiting and stopping functions when reaching the preset position. The slide and the limiting protrusion are spaced apart in the vertical direction, and the two work together to effectively limit the pallet in the vertical direction.

[0025] In an optional embodiment, the tray further includes an operating panel, and the operating panel is protrudingly provided at an end of the tray away from the stop groove.

[0026] By setting up an operation panel, operators can plug and unplug the pallet by grabbing the operation panel, which not only simplifies the installation process of the pallet, but also ensures the smooth disassembly and reinstallation of the pallet in subsequent maintenance operations, thereby effectively improving the convenience, accuracy and overall maintenance efficiency of pallet operation.

[0027] In an optional embodiment, the frame structure includes a bracket and a frame assembly, the bracket is arranged at one end of the frame assembly close to the rotating handle and is detachably connected to the frame assembly; the rotating handle is rotatably connected to the bracket.

[0028] By arranging the bracket to be detachably connected to the frame assembly and the rotating handle to be connected to the bracket, the disassembly and installation of the rotating handle is facilitated, thereby facilitating the assembly of the network card module.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, the network card is provided with a network card cage, which is arranged at one end close to the bracket and corresponds to the position of the interface of the network card; the bracket is provided with one or more groups of limiting card slots, and the multiple groups of limiting card slots are arranged in sequence along the height direction of the bracket, and the limiting card slots correspond one-to-one to the network cards; the network card cage is arranged in the corresponding limiting card slots.

[0030] The setting of the network card cage facilitates the connection between the external switch and other structures and the interface of the network card, ensures the precise alignment and close contact between the interface of the network card and the interface of the external device, reduces the loss and interference during signal transmission, and improves the efficiency and stability of signal transmission; by setting a limit card slot on the bracket, it is convenient to fix the network card cage, and can effectively resist displacement when subjected to external force, preventing the network card cage from loosening or falling off, which not only improves the stability of the network card installation, but also extends the service life of the network card interface and reduces the risk of failure caused by improper installation or vibration.

[0031] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of groups of first ventilation holes are provided on the bracket, and the plurality of groups of first ventilation holes are arranged in sequence along the height direction of the bracket, and a group of limiting slots are provided between two adjacent groups of first ventilation holes; and a second ventilation hole is provided on the assisting member, and when the assisting member is in the fixed position, the second ventilation hole is connected to the first ventilation hole at the corresponding position.

[0032] By setting a first ventilation hole on the bracket, the ventilation and heat dissipation effect of the frame structure can be enhanced, and the heat dissipation inside the installation space can be effectively promoted, thereby ensuring that the network card module can still maintain a stable temperature level under high-intensity working conditions and extending its service life; by setting a second ventilation hole on the assisting part, when the assisting part is in a fixed position, the second ventilation hole is connected to the first ventilation hole, avoiding the physical obstruction of the first ventilation hole caused by the assisting part, ensuring the unobstructed air circulation path, and ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the first ventilation hole.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, a light guide column is provided at one end of the network card close to the bracket, and a limiting hole is provided on the bracket. The light guide column passes through the limiting hole to be connected to an external structure.

[0034] By setting a light guide on the network card, the indicator light status of the network card can be clearly transmitted to the external panel or other easily observable structures. The user can intuitively understand the working status of the network card without opening the network card module and observing the network card itself closely, thereby greatly improving the usability and maintenance efficiency of the system; by setting a limit hole on the bracket, it not only serves to connect the light guide with the external panel and other structures, ensuring that the optical signal can be accurately transmitted to the user's visible area, but also realizes the limitation and fixation of the light guide; improves the stability of the overall structure, prevents the light guide from loosening or dislocation due to vibration or external force, ensures the stability and consistency of the light transmission path, and thus guarantees the accuracy and reliability of the indicator light status transmission.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, a connector is provided at one end of the network card facing away from the bracket, and the connector is used to connect to the structure inside the chassis.

[0036] By setting up a connector on the network card, a stable connection between the network card and the internal structure of the chassis is achieved, thereby ensuring that the network card can access the complex data transmission network inside the chassis. This not only improves the overall integration and interoperability of the system, but also realizes the collaboration between the network card and other key components.

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 making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0048] The following combination Figures 1 to 7 , describing embodiments of the present invention.

[0049] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, a server is provided, including a chassis 1 and a network card module 2; the chassis 1 is provided with a fan frame 11, and the fan frame 11 is provided with a plurality of fixing slots 111, and the fixing slots 111 are used to install the fan module; the network card module 2 is detachably connected to the fixing slots 111, and is used to be installed in the corresponding fixing slots 111 after the fan module is disassembled.

[0050] The network card module 2 is detachably connected to the fixing slot 111, and the network card module 2 can be installed in the preset fixing slot 111 in the chassis 1, making full use of the design of the original fan frame 11 of the chassis 1, thereby avoiding additional changes to the structure of the chassis 1; it allows the fan module in the fixing slot 111 at any position to be flexibly replaced with the required network card module 2 according to actual needs without changing the mold of the chassis 1. This flexible modular design not only fully meets the expansion requirements of the system functions, but also ensures that the hardware configuration is optimized and upgraded without increasing the cost of the chassis 1.

[0051] In one embodiment, a force-bearing member is provided in the fixing groove 111, and the network card module 2 includes a frame structure 21 and a rotating handle 22. The rotating handle 22 is arranged at one end of the frame structure 21 away from the interior of the chassis 1 and is rotatably connected to the frame structure 21. The rotating handle 22 has an installation position for engaging with the force-bearing member and a disengagement position for disengaging from the force-bearing member.

[0052] By setting the rotating handle 22 at the end of the frame structure 21 facing away from the inside of the chassis 1, it is convenient for the operator to grab and move the entire network card module 2 from the outside; the force-bearing member set in the fixing groove 111 cooperates with the rotating handle 22, so that the network card module 2 can be firmly fixed in the required position; and the rotatable connection design between the rotating handle 22 and the frame structure 21 allows the operator to connect or disconnect the frame structure 21 with the force-bearing member in the fixing groove 111 by rotating the handle 22, which simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the network card module 2, improves the convenience and flexibility of operation, reduces the difficulty of operation, and improves work efficiency.

[0053] In one embodiment, the rotating handle 22 includes two handle pieces 221 and a power-assisting piece 222; the two handle pieces 221 are respectively arranged on both sides of the frame structure 21, and the handle pieces 221 are rotatably connected to the frame structure 21; the two ends of the power-assisting piece 222 are respectively fixedly connected to the two handle pieces 221; the power-assisting piece 222 has a fixed position connected to the frame structure 21, and a separation position separated from the frame structure 21; when the rotating handle 22 is in the installation position, the power-assisting piece 222 is in the fixed position; when the rotating handle 22 is in the disengaged position, the power-assisting piece 222 is in the separation position.

[0054] By setting two handle pieces 221 on both sides of the frame structure 21, it is ensured that both sides of the network card module 2 can be reliably connected to the fixing slot 111, thereby enhancing the stability and safety of the installation of the network card module 2; by setting the power assist piece 222, the operator only needs to operate with one hand to achieve simultaneous control of the two handle pieces 221, which not only simplifies the operation process and reduces the difficulty of operation, but also significantly improves work efficiency and ensures that the installation process is fast and smooth.

[0055] In a specific embodiment, a first threaded hole is provided on the frame structure 21, and a second threaded hole is provided on the assisting member 222. When the assisting member 222 is in a fixed position, fasteners such as hand screws pass through the second threaded hole and the first threaded hole in sequence to achieve locking and fixation of the assisting member 222 to the frame structure 21.

[0056] In another embodiment, the assisting member 222 may also be detachably connected to the frame structure 21 via a buckle.

[0057] In one embodiment, the handle piece 221 includes a force-bearing end 2211 and a power-assisting end 2212; the force-bearing end 2211 has a first locking position and a second locking position that are locked with different force points of the force-bearing piece; the power-assisting end 2212 is connected to the power-assisting piece 222; when the force-bearing end 2211 is in the first locking position, the power-assisting end 2212 rotates to assist the connection between the network card module 2 and the fixed slot 111; when the force-bearing end 2211 is in the second locking position, the power-assisting end 2212 rotates to assist the separation of the network card module 2 and the fixed slot 111.

[0058] Since the torque required for plugging and separating the network card module 2 and the fixing slot 111 is constant, the setting of the assisting end 2212 can significantly reduce the force required to act on the assisting end 2212 according to the lever principle, allowing the operator to input with less force, thereby achieving a significant labor-saving effect, making the installation of the network card module 2 more convenient and efficient.

[0059] In one embodiment, a groove 2213 is provided on a side of the force-bearing end 2211 away from the power-assisting end 2212 . When the rotating handle 22 is in the installation position, the force-bearing member is located in the groove 2213 .

[0060] Through the setting of the groove 2213, when the rotating handle 22 is in the installation position, the force-bearing member in the fixing groove 111 will be embedded in the groove 2213, effectively preventing the network card module 2 from moving or offsetting when subjected to external force, and ensuring the network card module 2 is firmly installed in the fixing groove 111, avoiding the risk of falling off due to accidental collision or vibration during transportation or use.

[0061] In one embodiment, the groove 2213 includes a first side wall 22131 and a second side wall 22132, and the first side wall 22131 and the second side wall 22132 are arranged opposite to each other; when the force-bearing end 2211 is in the first locking position, the force-bearing member abuts against the first side wall 22131; when the force-bearing end 2211 is in the second locking position, the force-bearing member abuts against the second side wall 22132.

[0062] When the force-bearing end 2211 is in the first locking position, the force-bearing piece will form a tight abutment with the first side wall 22131, ensuring that when the handle 221 starts to rotate, the force-bearing piece can use the contact point with the first side wall 22131 as a rotation fulcrum, effectively converting the rotational force of the handle 221 into a driving force that pushes the network card module 2 to be inserted into the fixing slot 111; when the force-bearing end 2211 is in the second locking position, the force-bearing piece will form a tight abutment with the second side wall 22132, ensuring that when the handle 221 starts to rotate, the force-bearing piece can use the contact point with the first side wall 22131 as a rotation fulcrum, effectively converting the rotational force of the handle 221 into a driving force that pushes the network card module 2 to be inserted into the fixing slot 111; The abutment state ensures that when the handle piece 221 starts to rotate, the force-bearing piece can use the contact point with the second side wall 22132 as a rotation fulcrum, effectively converting the rotational force of the handle piece 221 into the driving force required to pull out the network card module 2; through the setting of the first side wall 22131 and the second side wall 22132, it is ensured that in different card positions, the force-bearing piece can maintain a stable abutment state with the force-bearing end 2211, thereby improving the stability and efficiency of the network card module 2 plugging and unplugging process.

[0063] In one embodiment, the network card module 2 also includes a torsion spring 23, a limiting groove 211 is provided in the frame structure 21, and a through hole 212 is provided at one end of the limiting groove 211 close to the handle piece 221; the torsion spring 23 is located in the limiting groove 211, and one torsion arm of the torsion spring 23 passes through the through hole 212 and is connected to the rotating handle 22, and the other torsion arm is connected to the groove wall of the limiting groove 211.

[0064] Through the setting of the torsion spring 23, when the assisting member 222 is connected to the frame structure 21 at a preset fixed position, the torsion spring 23 is placed in a compressed energy storage state. Once the assisting member 222 and the frame structure 21 are decoupled at the separation position, the torsion spring 23 will use its accumulated elastic potential energy as a power source to drive the rotating handle 22 to automatically pop open, thereby optimizing the operating process and ensuring that when the assisting member 222 is in the separation position, the rotating handle 22 can be quickly and automatically separated from the frame structure 21, providing the operator with an easy-to-grip handle, facilitating subsequent plugging and unplugging operations, and improving the convenience and efficiency of the overall operation.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, the handle 221 and the frame structure 21 are rotatably connected by riveting.

[0066] In one embodiment, an installation space is provided in the frame structure 21; the network card module 2 also includes one or more trays 25, and multiple trays 25 are arranged in the installation space in sequence along the vertical direction, and a network card 26 is installed in each tray 25; a avoidance opening 251 is provided at the bottom of the tray 25, and a radiator 261 is provided on the network card 26, and the radiator 261 is connected to the network card 26 and is located at the avoidance opening 251.

[0067] By setting the avoidance opening 251, not only the weight of the tray 25 can be reduced, but also the heat dissipation capacity of the tray 25 can be enhanced, and the other end of the radiator 261 can extend to the external space of the tray 25, thereby removing the physical restriction of the tray 25 on the height of the radiator 261, and realizing the decoupling between the height of the tray 25 and the radiator 261, thereby maximizing the height design of the radiator 261, and further ensuring the optimization of the heat dissipation effect.

[0068] In a specific embodiment, in the height direction of the frame structure 21 , one end of the radiator 261 is located inside the tray 25 , and the other end passes through the avoidance opening 251 and extends outside the tray 25 .

[0069] In a specific embodiment, the heat sink 261 abuts against the interface of the network card 26 to dissipate heat from the interface of the network card 26 .

[0070] In a specific embodiment, the heat sink 261 may be a heat sink structure.

[0071] In a specific embodiment, the tray 25 is provided with positioning step studs and common studs, wherein the positioning step studs are used for pre-positioning the network card 26 during installation, and the common studs are responsible for fixing the network card 26 in place.

[0072] In one embodiment, a slideway 213 is protruded from the inner wall of the installation space. The slideway 213 is arranged along the installation direction of the tray 25 , and the tray 25 is slidably connected to the slideway 213 .

[0073] By providing the slideway 213 , the sliding path of the tray 25 is guided, ensuring that the tray 25 can slide in a preset direction.

[0074] In a specific embodiment, the slide 213 is a sprouting slide, and sprouting slides are provided on the two opposite side walls of the installation space. The tray 25 is placed above the sprouting slide and is slidingly connected to the sprouting slide. The sprouting slide guides the sliding of the tray 25 so that the tray 25 slides along a predetermined direction.

[0075] In one embodiment, a stop groove 252 is provided on the top of the tray 25, and the stop groove 252 is located at one end of the tray 25 close to the rotating handle 22; a limit protrusion 214 is provided on the inner wall of the installation space, and the limit protrusion 214 and the slide 213 are spaced apart in the vertical direction, and the stop groove 252 is slidably engaged with the limit protrusion 214.

[0076] By setting the stop groove 252 and the limiting protrusion 214, when the tray 25 slides in the installation space, the limiting protrusion 214 will interact with the stop groove 252, and can achieve precise limiting and stopping functions when reaching the preset position, and the slide 213 and the limiting protrusion 214 are spaced apart in the vertical direction, and the two work together to effectively limit the tray 25 in the vertical direction.

[0077] In a specific embodiment, a first screw hole is provided on the side wall of the frame structure 21, and a second screw hole is provided on the side wall of the tray 25.
