[0002] Cabinets used to install servers, network equipment, power supplies and other equipment play an important role in data centers, network centers and other environments. The chassis is one of the important components of the equipment inside the cabinet. Its main function is to divide the cabinet into different areas and protect the circuit boards, electronic components and other components inside the chassis. Usually, multiple chassis are installed in a cabinet. For some cabinets with larger control ranges, the number of chassis installed is also more. The chassis needs daily maintenance and inspection to ensure stable performance and safe operation of the equipment.
[0003] At present, when a chassis is repaired and inspected, it is usually necessary to remove it from the cabinet. However, some cabinets are relatively high, and workers need to move to a high place to operate when installing and disassembling the chassis. The operation is complicated and affects work efficiency. In addition, since the lines in the cabinet are usually arranged tightly and neatly, the cabinet may easily become disconnected after the chassis is disassembled, affecting the overall use of the cabinet. For some equipment chassis with heavy weight, high installation and maintenance accuracy, and high requirements for maintenance time and inspection efficiency, it is not suitable to remove them from the cabinet for inspection.

[0041] Reference Figure 1-4 A flip chassis disclosed in the present application includes a chassis body 3, a pull-out mechanism, a rotating connection assembly and a locking assembly; wherein the pull-out mechanism is connected and fixed to the cabinet body 11, the chassis body 3 is connected to the movable end of the pull-out mechanism and is installed on the cabinet body 11 through the pull-out mechanism, and by pulling the movable end of the pull-out mechanism, the chassis body 3 can be moved horizontally so as to be extended from the cabinet body 11 for maintenance and inspection by staff.
[0042] Specifically, two groups of pull-out mechanisms are provided, and the two groups of pull-out mechanisms are respectively provided at the two ends of the chassis body 3 and are arranged symmetrically. The pull-out mechanism is a guide rail mechanism commonly used in the art, specifically including a fixed rail 12 and a sliding rail 1, wherein the fixed rail 12 is horizontally fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cabinet device, and the sliding rail 1 is provided in the horizontal direction and slidably connected to the fixed rail 12, and the sliding rail 1 and the fixed rail 12 are provided in parallel with each other and the sliding rail 1 is located on the side where the two fixed rails 12 are close to each other; wherein the sliding rail 1 is a multi-segment sliding rail, one end of the sliding rail 1 is slidably connected to the fixed rail 12, and the chassis body 3 is connected to the other end of the sliding rail 1, and the sliding rail 1 can continue to extend after sliding with the chassis body 3, and when the sliding rail 1 is extended to the maximum length, the pull-out mechanism completes the self-locking position, and the horizontal position of the chassis body 3 remains stable and unchanged, and by extending the moving distance of the chassis body 3, interference with the cabinet body 11 can be avoided when the chassis body 3 is driven to flip.
[0043] Furthermore, the chassis body 3 is rotatably connected to the sliding rail 1 through a rotating connection assembly to achieve a radial flipping action. The rotation axis of the chassis body 3 is perpendicular to its connection surface, and the chassis body 3 is rotated to adjust the inspection angle of the chassis body 3; the locking assembly is detachably connected between the chassis body 3 and the sliding rail 1 to fix the relative positions of the two.
[0044] Reference Figure 5-6 More specifically, the rotating connection assembly includes a rotating support plate 2 and a rotating spindle 8. The rotating support plate 2 is detachably connected to a side of the sliding rail 1 close to the chassis body 3 by a plurality of first fixing bolts 4. The rotating spindle 8 is detachably connected between the rotating support plate 2 and the chassis body 3. One end of the rotating spindle 8 is rotatably connected to the rotating support plate 2, and the other end is rotatably connected to the chassis body 3. The rotating spindle 8 is not directly connected to the sliding rail 1 to avoid interference between the rotating spindle 8 and the fixed rail 12 when the sliding rail 1 moves. One end of the rotating spindle 8 is integrally formed with a step portion 8-1, the inner wall of the chassis body 3 is provided with a first through hole whose diameter is smaller than the step portion 8-1, and the rotating support plate 2 is provided with a second through hole. The rotating spindle 8 is clearance-matched with the first through hole and the second through hole in the axial and radial directions. When installing the rotating spindle 8 in this embodiment, the end of the rotating spindle 8 away from the step portion 8-1 is passed through the first through hole and the second through hole and then connected to the limit member 10 by the second fixing bolt 6. The limit member 10 adopts a circular cover plate with a diameter larger than the second through hole to connect the chassis body 3 and the rotating support plate 2.

After the baffle 7 is installed, the first step groove can be closed and the step portion 8-1 on one side of the baffle 7 is fitted, so that the end of the rotating spindle 8 close to the step portion 8-1 is more stably arranged. At the same time, since the baffle 7 is located on the inner side of the chassis body 3, it can effectively prevent the rotating spindle 8 from falling into the interior of the box body after the connection between the rotating spindle 8 and the stopper 10 fails and falls off, causing interference and damage to the circuit board and electronic components inside the box body. In summary, both ends of the rotating main shaft 8 are stably connected, thereby improving the rotation stability of the chassis body 3.

The locking bolt 5 passes through the locking hole and is threadedly connected to the threaded positioning hole, so that the rotating support plate 2 and the chassis body 3 are connected as a whole, thereby fixing the chassis body 3; when the chassis body 3 needs to be flipped over, the locking bolt 5 is removed, and the locking bolt 5 is rotated to disengage it from the threaded positioning hole, so that the chassis body 3 can be flipped over.
[0047] In another feasible embodiment, the locking mechanism includes a plurality of butterfly bolts, which are threadedly connected to the rotating support plate 2. A positioning groove for inserting the butterfly bolt is provided at the end of the chassis body 3. The butterfly bolt is rotated to move the rear end thereof and insert it into the positioning groove to fix the chassis body 3. When the chassis body 3 needs to be flipped, the butterfly bolt is rotated to move it out of the positioning groove, so that the chassis body 3 can be flipped. An anti-slip sheet is also fixedly connected to one end of the butterfly bolt close to the chassis body 3. Rotating the butterfly bolt can make the anti-slip sheet fit the outer wall of the chassis body 3, so that the chassis body 3 can be fixed after being rotated to any angle.
[0048] The present application also discloses a cabinet device, including a cabinet body 11 and the above-mentioned flip chassis, a mounting groove is opened on one side of the cabinet body 11, and a plurality of flip chassis are installed in the mounting groove on the cabinet body 11 in sequence along the vertical direction, a fixed rail 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove and arranged horizontally, and the chassis body 3 is slidably connected to the fixed rail 12 through a sliding rail 1.
