Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a joint floating fixing seat, in particular to a joint floating fixing seat structure for reducing radial sliding resistance in a water cooling system. Background Art

[0002] As the computing performance of servers increases, the heat generated by the computing units inside them also increases. In addition, multiple servers are installed in a server cabinet at the same time, and the space between each server is very narrow. It is no longer possible to set up additional heat dissipation modules to dissipate heat for each server one by one. The traditional heat dissipation modules that use air cooling can no longer meet the heat generated by today's servers. In addition, the narrow space between servers easily generates heat accumulation inside. Therefore, the industry uses water cooling to provide heat dissipation for each server in the server cabinet. Since the server has precise electronic parts, various water cooling pipe configurations must first avoid water leakage at each connection point to prevent damage to electronic components caused by water leakage. In order to prevent water leakage, most of the server pipes use hard or metal pipes to configure cooling water pipes. Moreover, most of the circulation pipelines are arranged on the server cabinets, and since each server and the server cabinet are assembled in a horizontal pulling manner like a drawer, a male and a female quick connector are arranged on the server and the server cabinet at the same time. Since a small radial tolerance will be generated when assembling the water cooling pipelines on the server and the server cabinet, in order to facilitate the rapid correction of the small radial tolerance of the two quick connectors, at least one guide column is arranged near the position where the quick connector is arranged on the server cabinet, and a guide seat is arranged on the side of the quick connector of the server corresponding to the position of the guide column, and the guide seat has a guide hole. When assembling the two quick connectors, the guide column is first inserted into the guide hole of the guide seat, and the two quick connectors with slight eccentricity are first guided to be close to the coaxial center and then smoothly docked.

[0003] However, conventional water-cooling joints are all fixed type. When the eccentricity of the two quick joints is too large, it is impossible to guide the joint through the guide column and the guide seat. Therefore, some industry insiders provide a joint floating fixed seat with radial offset, which can be used to correct the tolerance of two non-coaxial quick joints with radial translation, so as to correct the radial offset between the two quick joints with excessive radial tolerance. However, the conventional joint floating fixed seat has a large resistance during radial sliding, which will affect the mutual connection between the two joints. The conventional joint floating fixed seat has a large resistance during radial sliding for the following reasons. The main reason is that the spring force is too large in the structure of the conventional joint floating fixed seat, and the position of the sliding element is not conducive to radial sliding. In addition, the force arm of the guide hole opening from the sliding element to the guide seat is long, and the torque generated is large, which will cause a large radial sliding resistance when the two joints are connected. In addition, the radial sliding resistance of the conventional joint floating fixed seat is affected by the axial force, which will cause a more unstable state. And the conventional joint floating fixed seat is easy to cause the sliding element of the joint floating fixed seat to fall off when the two joints are connected. Therefore, the various deficiencies derived therefrom are the directions that the inventor of this case and the relevant practitioners engaged in this industry are eager to study and improve. Summary of the invention

[0004] Therefore, in order to effectively solve the above problems, the purpose of the present invention is to improve the existing joint floating fixed seat, which has a large resistance during radial sliding and the radial sliding resistance of the joint floating fixed seat is affected by the axial force, resulting in a more unstable state, and provide a joint floating fixed seat structure.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to improve the problem that the sliding element of the conventional joint floating fixing seat is easily dropped off when two joints are connected, thereby providing a joint floating fixing seat structure.

Moreover, the radial sliding resistance of the adapter seat is less affected by the pre-pressure of the spring. In addition, the compression stroke provided by the spring allows the adapter seat to withstand axial tolerances while allowing the joint to tilt slightly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The above-mentioned objects and the structural and functional characteristics of the present invention will be described based on the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0038] Please refer to the present invention Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention provides a joint floating fixing seat structure, which at least includes a fixing seat 1, an adapter seat 2, a guide sliding group 3, a supporting gasket 5, a spring 6, a fixing element 7, a sliding gasket 8 and an elastic element 9.

[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the interior of the fixing base 1 has an accommodating space 10, and its two ends are respectively provided with an open end 11 and a closed end 12, the accommodating space 10 is located between the open end 11 and the closed end 12, the closed end 12 is provided with a through hole 120, the open end 11 has an opening 110, and the opening 110, the accommodating space 10 and the through hole 120 are connected.

[0040] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the two ends of the adapter 2 are respectively provided with a sleeve section 23 and a joint section 21, and the sleeve section 23 and the joint section 21 are connected via a buffer section 22. The sleeve section 23 passes through the opening 110 and the accommodating space 13 of the fixing seat 1 and extends to protrude outside the through hole 120, the buffer section 22 is located in the accommodating space 10 of the fixing seat 1, and the joint section 21 is located outside the opening 110 of the fixing seat 1. In some embodiments, the adapter 2 may be provided with a pipe channel inside to allow stable transmission of fluid, and be connected and docked with the male connector A through methods such as thread locking, or the joint section 21 may extend another structure to be used in conjunction with other components, or the adapter 2 and the male connector A may be integrally formed, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0041] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 and Figure 6 to Figure 7 As shown, the guide sliding group 3 can be movably accommodated in the accommodating space 10 and sleeved on the buffer section 22 in a cross-moving actuation mode relative to the fixed seat 1. The guide sliding group 3 includes: a sliding element 31, which is slidably arranged in the accommodating space 10 and is provided with a sliding slot 310 for the buffer section 22 to pass through, and the sliding element 31 is provided with a sliding channel 311 corresponding to the opening 110 of the open end 11 of the fixed seat 1, and the sliding element 31 is provided with an inner gasket sliding groove 312 corresponding to the closed end 12 of the fixed seat 1; a guide seat 32, which passes through the opening 110 and is slidably arranged in the sliding channel 311 and sleeves the buffer section 22, so that the adapter seat 2 can move up and down, axially or vertically along the sliding channel 311; and an inner gasket 33, which is sleeved on the buffer section 22 and accommodated in the accommodating space 10, and the inner gasket 33 is slidably arranged in the inner gasket sliding groove 312.

[0042] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the sliding element 31 is slidably arranged left and right or horizontally slidably (movably) accommodated in the accommodating space 10, and a sliding slot 310 is passed through it to allow the buffer section 22 to pass through, and to allow the adapter 2 to slide radially. For example, the sliding element 31 can be a block with a hollow shape, but the shape of the sliding element 31 is not limited to a cube, a circle, an ellipsoid or a polygon. In addition, in the present embodiment, the sliding slot 310 is in the shape of a long hole extending up and down, so that the buffer section 22 can move up and down or vertically in the sliding slot 310, so that the adapter 2 and the fixed seat 1 can move relative to each other radially. Furthermore, the sliding slot 310 is axially connected to the sliding channel 311, and the radial length of the sliding slot 310 is less than the length of the sliding channel 311.

[0043] In this embodiment, the adapter seat 2 inserted into the sliding element 31 can slide left and right in the fixed seat 1 together with the sliding element 31. Furthermore, the adapter seat 2 can also slide up and down in the sliding slot 310 without interference. For example, the sliding slot 310 extends longitudinally, so that a space for the adapter seat 2 to slide up and down is reserved. Therefore, although the sliding element 31 is limited by the fixed seat 1 above and below, the adapter seat 2 can still slide up and down in its sliding slot 310. The guide seat 32 can be slidably arranged in the sliding groove 311 and sleeved with the buffer section 22, so that the adapter seat 2 can move up and down along the sliding groove 311. In this way, the guide sliding group 3 can be movably accommodated in the accommodating space 10 in a cross-moving actuation mode relative to the fixed seat 1, and at the same time, the adapter seat 2 can also be driven to move left and right and up and down in a cross-shaped manner.

[0044] Furthermore, the inner gasket sliding groove 312 and the sliding channel 311 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the sliding element 31, so as to slide the inner gasket 33 and the guide seat 32 respectively, so that they can slide up and down along the inner gasket sliding groove 312 and the sliding channel 311 respectively. In addition, the inner gasket 33 and the guide seat 32 are also respectively sleeved on the buffer section 22 of the adapter seat 2, because the inner gasket 33 and the guide seat 32 are tightly or closely sleeved on the buffer section 22 of the adapter seat 2 (that is, they will not produce relative radial sliding), so the buffer section 22, the inner gasket 33 and the guide seat 32 move together, so that the adapter seat 2 can be slidably arranged up and down in the sliding groove hole 310.

[0045] In summary, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the sliding element 31 and the adapter seat 2 can slide left and right relative to the accommodating space 10 in the fixed seat 1, and the adapter seat 2 can also slide up and down relative to the sliding element 31 together with the inner gasket 33 and the guide seat 32. In this way, the present invention can achieve the effect of allowing the adapter seat 2 to slide freely in the radial direction relative to the fixed seat 1 (i.e., up and down, left and right); at the same time, the adapter seat 2 can be fixed in the fixed seat 1 and is not easy to be separated, so as to achieve structural stability and improve reliability.

[0046] Also, see Figure 4 As shown, the inner gasket 33 is sleeved on the buffer section 22 and accommodated in the accommodation space 10, and the inner gasket 33 is located between the guide sliding group 3 and the closed end 12, more specifically, the inner gasket 33 is located between the sliding element 31 and the closed end 12. The abutting gasket 5 is sleeved on the buffer section 22 of the adapter 2 and accommodated in the accommodation space 10, and the abutting gasket 5 is located between the inner gasket 33 and the closed end 12, and is located in the accommodation space 10 of the fixed seat 1 close to the through hole 120, adjacent to the closed end 12 of the fixed seat 1. Correspondingly, the sliding gasket 8 is sleeved on the sleeve section 23 of the adapter 2, disposed on the fixed seat 1 and close to the outside of the closed end 12 of the fixed seat 1, and is located between the fixed element 7 and the closed end 12.

[0047] Specifically, the abutting gasket 5 abuts against the inner wall surface of the closed end 12 of the fixing seat 1, and the abutting gasket 5 has a convex portion 51 on the side facing the through hole 120. The convex portion 51 extends through the through hole 120, for example, the convex portion 51 can be a ring-shaped tubular structure with a fixed diameter, so that the sliding gasket 8 can be directly abutted and supported by the convex portion 51 of the abutting gasket 5. In some embodiments, the abutting gasket 5 and its convex portion 51 can be integrally formed or non-integrally arranged, but it is not limited thereto.

[0048] In this embodiment, the sleeve section 23 of the adapter 2 extends to the outside of the through hole 120 of the fixed seat 1 and can provide structural support for components (such as coolant delivery pipes or seals, not shown). In addition, the outer periphery of the sleeve section 23 is usually provided with a groove for fixing components such as the sliding gasket 8 so that they cannot be separated from the through hole 120 and thus produce axial limitation, so as to prevent the adapter 2 from shifting and separating from the fixed seat 1.

[0049] The protrusion 51 extends axially through the through hole 120 and directly contacts the sliding gasket 8, so that the external force can be directly transmitted to the sliding gasket 8 to avoid the force acting on the inner periphery of the through hole 120, and then the sliding gasket 8 itself (or an additional fixing element 7) which is axially limited bears the force from the sliding gasket 8; thereby, when the abutting gasket 5 is pushed, the force will not act between the abutting gasket 5 and the fixed seat 1, effectively reducing the friction resistance of the contact surface. Therefore, the present invention can achieve the effect of avoiding the influence of the force on the displacement of the adapter seat 2, and further avoid the increase of the sliding resistance of the adapter seat 2 due to the influence of external force, ensuring that it can still slide radially freely under the force. Furthermore, through the cooperation of the abutting gasket 5 and the sliding gasket 8, the adapter seat 2 passes through and cooperates with the fixed seat 1 to be stably fixed, while effectively reducing the resistance.

[0050] At this time, if Figure 4 As shown, the joint section 21 of the adapter 2 is located at the other end opposite to the sleeve section 23, and the joint section 21 is also outside the accommodating space 10 of the fixing base 1. Specifically, the inner circumference of the pipe passage near the end face of the joint section 21 can be provided with a thread or a buckle structure for locking, which is used to connect the male connector A. When the connector is connected, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the force applied by the male connector A during docking can be directly guided to the joint section 21 to promote radial sliding of the adapter 2 .

[0051] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the guide seat 32 may also be L-shaped and branched to connect a guide block 321 extending from the bottom thereof, and extending parallel to the axial direction of the adapter seat 2. The guide block 321 has a guide hole 322 that can correspond to a guide post (not shown) for insertion, and the movement of the adapter seat 2 is guided by inserting the guide post into the guide hole 322; when docking, the guide seat 32 can use this guide block 321 to correspond to the guide post (not shown) and be inserted to guide the movement of the adapter seat 2 in the radial direction, to correct the tolerance and thus enable smooth docking. It is understandable that in order to allow the guide block 321 to move up and down smoothly, a notch 111 is provided at the open end 11 of the fixed seat 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown, the lower notch 111 is connected to the opening 110 and the accommodating space 10 , and the guide block 321 can extend through the lower notch 111 to protrude out of the fixing base 1 .

[0052] In addition, in the present embodiment, the buffer section 22 includes an outer buffer section 221 adjacent to the opening 110 and an inner buffer section 222 away from the opening 110, the inner gasket 33, the abutting gasket 5 and the spring 6 are arranged on the inner buffer section 222, the guide sliding assembly 3 is arranged on the outer buffer section 221, and a gap G is formed between the sliding element 31 and the inner gasket 33. It can be understood that the outer diameter of the outer buffer section 221 is greater than the outer diameter of the inner buffer section 222, so that a differential surface 223 is formed between the outer buffer section 221 and the inner buffer section 222, and the differential surface 223 can limit the inner gasket 33 on the inner buffer section 222. In addition, the fixing seat 1 is provided with a sliding surface 13 in the accommodating space 10, the sliding element 31 slides on the sliding surface 13, and the sliding surface 13 and the differential surface 223 are not located on the same plane. In this way, the sliding element 31 and the inner gasket 33 will not contact each other due to the gap G, which effectively solves the problem of large resistance when the conventional joint slides, so that the operation can be more stable, convenient and labor-saving. It can be understood that the length L of the sliding surface 13 from the opening 110 is greater than or equal to the thickness T of the guide sliding group 3, so as to ensure that the guide sliding group 3 moves in the accommodating space 10 and can be completely protected by the fixing seat 1 to prevent the guide sliding group 3 from falling off.

[0053] In this embodiment, the buffer section 22 is the connecting portion between the engagement section 21 and the sleeve section 23, and its outer diameter is slightly smaller than that of the engagement section 21, and is inserted into the sliding slot 310 of the sliding element 31 in the setting state to perform various radial sliding relative to the fixed seat 1 (such as up, down, left, and right). In addition, the difference in outer diameter between the buffer section 22 and the engagement section 21 forms a limiting portion 211. The limiting portion 211 is an annular planar structure, which surrounds the junction between the adapter seat 2 and the engagement section 21 and contacts the guide seat 32, and is stopped by the fixed seat 1 together with the guide seat 32, which can prevent the engagement section 21 from excessively moving into the fixed seat 1 in the axial direction, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure. In addition, the limiting portion 211 can also effectively disperse the external force applied to the adapter seat 2, while ensuring that the relative position between the adapter seat 2 and the fixed seat 1 remains accurate.

[0054] In addition, the fixing element 7 may be sleeved on the outer periphery of the sleeve section 23 of the adapter 2 to limit the sleeve section 23 in the axial direction, and the fixing element 7 abuts against the sliding gasket 8. In this embodiment, the fixing element 7 may be a buckle (e.g., a C-shaped buckle) or a nut with a thread inside the ring for locking. The sleeve section 23 may also form a corresponding groove corresponding to the buckle ring fixed thereon, so as to be suitable for fastening the buckle ring at a predetermined position (e.g., at the groove), so that the components of the joint floating fixing seat structure will not have an undesired relative axial movement. As long as the axial limit can be effectively achieved, the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0055] The spring 6 is sleeved on the buffer section 22 of the adapter 2 and accommodated in the accommodating space 10. Its two ends respectively abut against the inner gasket 33 and the abutting gasket 5, and provide a certain pre-pressure toward the two ends to support the radial position of the adapter 2 floating in the fixed seat 1, and also provide force buffering during docking. At the same time, the compression stroke of the spring 6 can adapt to the tolerance changes in the axial direction, allowing the adapter 2 to withstand a certain range of dimensional errors during operation. In addition, the flexible design of the spring 6 enables it to support slight tilt adjustments of the adapter 2, further improving the dynamic adaptability and operational stability of the structure. Furthermore, using the inner gasket 33 and the abutting gasket 5 to lean against the adapter 2 respectively can eliminate the influence of the pre-pressure of the spring 6 on the fixed seat 1.

[0056] When the joint is docked, because the spring 6, the inner gasket 33 and the abutting gasket 5 are all sleeved on the buffer section 22 and abut against the inner gasket 33 and the abutting gasket 5, the pre-pressure of the spring 6 can be dispersed and evenly applied to the buffer section 22 by the inner gasket 33 and the abutting gasket 5, so that the spring 6 can smoothly slide up and down and left and right together with the adapter 2 and the guide sliding group 3 without excessive resistance. At this time, the inner gasket 33 and the abutting gasket 5 can ensure that the pre-pressure of the spring 6 will not directly act on the guide sliding group 3 to cause excessive resistance and slide failure, or cause the uneven pre-pressure of the spring 6 to rub the sliding element 31, causing the sliding element 31 or the spring 6 to be damaged.

[0057] On the other hand, in the direction toward one end of the through hole 120, the pre-pressure of the spring 6 is transmitted to the abutting gasket 5 and then transmitted to the sliding gasket 8 through the protrusion 51, so that the pre-pressure will not be transmitted to the fixed seat 1, but is instead transmitted to the sliding gasket 8 axially fixed on the adapter seat 2; thereby, the minimum radial force that needs to be overcome to start radial sliding is greatly reduced, so that even when it is inconvenient to assemble in a convenient posture, the adapter seat 2 can still effectively trigger radial sliding with the receiving force, so as to immediately correct the axial eccentricity tolerance and smoothly bring the joint into the docking position.

[0058] Therefore, by using the inner gasket 33 and the abutting gasket 5 on the adapter 2, the present invention can eliminate the influence of the preload of the spring 6 on the fixing seat 1, and greatly reduce the resistance of radial sliding. In addition, the preload provided by the spring 6 within a certain range of compression can also make the adapter 2 withstand axial tolerance, and the elasticity allows the male connector A to tilt slightly, but the present invention is not limited to this.

[0059] At the same time, the present invention may also have an elastic element 9 sleeved on the sleeve section 23, which is arranged between the outer surface of the closed end 12 of the fixed seat 1 and the sliding gasket 8, and is adjacent to the sleeve section 23 of the adapter seat 2, and can be an element made of a material with elastic properties, such as: O-ring, elastic gasket, rubber ring, etc. The elastic element 9 is compressed by the sliding gasket 8 to generate a positive force, which can provide elastic force to help the adapter seat 2 to slide and temporarily hover at any position in the radial space at any time. In some embodiments, the pre-pressure of the spring 6 in the present invention is guided to the sliding gasket 8 by the protrusion 51. At this time, the source of the radial sliding resistance of the adapter seat 2 can be provided by cooperating with the elastic element 9 to provide more precise adjustment, and the size of the radial sliding resistance provided can be controlled by the compression amount of the elastic element 9 or the selection of the material.

[0060] Thereby, the floating fixed seat structure of the joint of the present invention improves the problem that the floating fixed seat of the conventional joint has large resistance during radial sliding, and the sliding of the conventional fixed seat is affected by the resistance, which will cause the structure and docking to be unstable, and improves the risk of the sliding element of the conventional fixed seat falling off easily when the joint is connected.

[0061] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the fixing seat 1 of the present invention is used as a fixing part for fixing the whole element. When an offset adjustment is required relative to the adapter seat 2 in the radial direction, the sliding element 31 and the guide seat 32 in the guide sliding group 3 can cooperate with the offset adjustment path in both directions (horizontal axis X and vertical axis Y). Figure 6 As shown, the fixing seat 1 provides the sliding element 31 with an offset adjustment in the X direction. Figure 7 As shown, the guide seat 32 provides the transfer seat 2 with an offset adjustment in the Y direction. The offset adjustment provided by the guide slide assembly 3 can prevent the transfer seat 2 from tilting in the axial direction.

[0062] In summary, the present invention not only allows the adapter 2 to smoothly slide radially through the guide sliding group 3, but also has flexibility and can be stably fixed in the fixed base 1; and the cooperation of the abutting gasket 5, the spring 6 and the sliding gasket 8 makes the pre-pressure of the spring 6 supported therebetween dispersed or offset, eliminating the risk of failure of the radial sliding function due to excessive resistance. In this way, the present invention achieves effective adjustment of the docking position, thereby effectively providing the user with a stable hand feel.

[0063] The above is a detailed description of the present invention, and the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, which should not limit the scope of the present invention. That is, all equivalent changes and modifications made according to the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent of the present invention.
