[0024] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and should not be understood as limiting the present application.
[0025] In the present embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 4 , the liquid cooling assembly 100 comprises a cooling component 10, the cooling component 10 comprises a cooling housing 1, the cooling housing 1 comprises a bottom wall 14 and a peripheral wall 15, the peripheral wall 15 is arranged at the outer periphery of the bottom wall 14 and surrounds the bottom wall 14 to form a containing cavity 16, the cooling housing 1 has a cooling cavity 11, the cooling cavity 11 comprises a first cavity 111 and a second cavity 112 which are in communication with each other, the first cavity 111 is arranged in the bottom wall 14, and the second cavity 112 is arranged in the peripheral wall 15 and extends along the circumference of the peripheral wall 15, the cooling housing 1 has a medium inlet 12 and a medium outlet 13, the medium inlet 12 and the medium outlet 13 are both in communication with the cooling cavity 11, so as to transport cooling medium into the cooling cavity 11 through the medium inlet 12 and discharge the cooling medium in the cooling cavity 11 through the medium outlet 13.
[0026] As shown in Figure 5As shown, when the cooling component 10 is arranged below the server 500, the bottom of the server 500 can be arranged in the accommodating cavity 16, the bottom of the server 500 is in contact with the bottom wall 14 of the accommodating cavity 16, the side wall bottom of the server 500 is in contact with the side wall of the accommodating cavity 16, the contact range of the server 500 and the cooling component 10 is increased, and the cooling effect of the cooling component 10 on the server 500 is improved.
[0027] Specifically, a first connector can be arranged at the medium inlet 12, and a second connector can be arranged at the medium outlet 13, so as to facilitate the connection of the infusion pipeline with the medium inlet 12 and the medium outlet 13.
[0028] When the cooling component 10 cools the server 500, the bottom wall 14 is placed downward and the peripheral wall 15 is placed upward, the cooling component 10 can be arranged below the server 500, or can be arranged above the server 500, or can be arranged above and below the server 500.
[0029] It can be understood that the cooling shell 1 in the embodiment includes the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15, the first cavity 111 is arranged in the bottom wall 14, the second cavity 112 is arranged in the peripheral wall 15, and the first cavity 111 and the second cavity 112 are in communication with each other. When the cooling medium is transported into the cooling cavity 11 through the medium inlet 12, the cooling medium can flow to the first cavity 111 and the second cavity 112. With the continuous transportation of the cooling medium, the cooling medium flows to the cooling medium outlet 13 and then flows out of the cooling medium outlet 13, so that the cooling medium in the cooling cavity 11 is replaced in time, thereby improving the cooling effect. Since the bottom of the cooling shell 1 and the peripheral wall 15 are filled with cooling medium, under the action of gravity, the cooling medium flows to the first cavity 111 of the bottom wall 14, so that the first cavity 111 is first filled with cooling medium. When the cooling shell 1 is inclined, the cooling medium in the second cavity 112 flows into the first cavity 111, so that the first cavity 111 of the bottom wall 14 is filled with cooling medium, there is no gap in the position corresponding to the server 500 inside the bottom wall 14, and the bottom wall 14 can better contact the server for heat exchange, thereby improving the uniformity of the cooling of the server 500 by the cooling component 10.
[0030] In the embodiment, the medium inlet 12 and the medium outlet 13 are arranged on the peripheral wall 15, and the medium inlet 12 and the medium outlet 13 are located on opposite sides of the peripheral wall 15.
[0031] For example, the medium inlet 12 and the medium outlet 13 are located at one end of the peripheral wall 15 away from the bottom wall 14, so that more cooling medium can be filled into the cooling cavity 11 when the bottom wall 14 is placed downward and the peripheral wall 15 is placed upward, thereby reducing the dead zone.
[0032] It is understandable that after the cooling medium is input from the medium inlet 12, it flows from the medium interface side to the medium outlet 13 side. By setting the medium inlet 12 and the medium outlet 13 opposite to each other, the flow of the cooling medium can cross the cooling shell 1, which can make full use of the cooling medium for heat exchange, while also allowing the heated cooling medium to be discharged in time.
[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the peripheral wall 15 includes a first section 151, a second section 152, a third section 153, and a fourth section 154. The first section 151 and the third section 153 are arranged opposite to each other, and the second section 152 and the fourth section 154 are arranged opposite to each other. The medium inlet 12 is located in the first section 151, and the medium outlet 13 is located in the third section 153. The height of the first section 151 and the third section 153 is higher than the height of the second section 152 and the fourth section 154.
[0034] For example, when the bottom wall 14 is square, the positions of the first segment 151, the second segment 152, the third segment 153, and the fourth segment 154 correspond to the four sides of the bottom wall 14, respectively. Typically, the server 500 is a cuboid; making the bottom wall 14 square facilitates the matching and installation of the cooling housing 1 with the server 500. It should be noted that the bottom wall 14 can be square, or it can be a polygon such as a pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, or octagon. In this case, the outer perimeter of the peripheral wall 15 matches the outer perimeter of the bottom wall 14. Therefore, the number of segments constituting the peripheral wall 15 is not intended to limit the invention.
[0035] It is understandable that, since the height of the first segment 151 and the third segment 153 is higher than that of the second segment 152 and the fourth segment 154, when the cooling shell 1 is tilted, the cooling medium in the cooling cavity 11 will flow from high to low, which can preferentially ensure that the position of the peripheral wall 15 adjacent to the bottom wall 14 is filled with cooling medium, thereby improving the uniformity of cooling of the server 500 at the bottom of the peripheral wall 15.
[0036] In this embodiment, the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15 are integrally formed.
[0037] For example, the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15 can be integrally formed by 3D printing. Of course, the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15 can also be integrally formed in other ways, and there are no restrictions here.
[0038] It is understandable that by integrally molding the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15, the sealing effect of the cooling cavity 11 is improved, the leakage of the cooling medium during use is reduced, and thus the safety of using the cooling component 10 is improved. It should be noted that the purpose of making the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15 integrally molded is to improve the sealing effect of the cooling cavity 11. However, the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15 can also be molded separately to achieve a good seal. Therefore, the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15 can also be processed by separate molding. The integral molding of the bottom wall 14 and the peripheral wall 15 is not intended to limit the invention.
[0039] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the cooling component 10 also includes heat dissipation fins 2, which are disposed on the surface of the cooling housing 1 away from the server 500.
[0040] For example, when the cooling component is located below the server 500, the heat dissipation fins 2 are located on the side of the bottom wall 14 away from the peripheral wall 15. The side of the bottom wall 14 facing the peripheral wall 15 contacts the server 500. After the heat from the server 500 is transferred to the cooling housing 1, it can be further dissipated by the heat dissipation fins 2, thereby improving the cooling effect of the cooling component. Specifically, multiple heat dissipation fins 2 are provided, and the multiple heat dissipation fins 2 are arranged in a single arrangement.
[0041] When the cooling component is positioned above the server 500, the heat dissipation fins 2 are disposed within the receiving cavity 16, and the side of the bottom wall 14 facing away from the peripheral wall 15 contacts the server 500. The heat dissipation fins 2 can dissipate heat from the cooling housing 1, which is beneficial to improving the cooling effect of the cooling component. Similarly, multiple heat dissipation fins 2 are provided, and the multiple heat dissipation fins 2 are arranged sequentially.
[0042] When the cooling component 10 is installed inside the server rack to dissipate heat from the server 500, a blower assembly can be installed inside the server rack to dissipate heat from the heat sink fins 2 through convection, thereby further improving the heat dissipation effect.
[0043] It is understandable that by setting heat dissipation fins 2 on the surface of the cooling housing 1 away from the server 500, the setting of heat dissipation fins 2 does not affect the contact between the cooling housing 1 and the server 500. Heat dissipation fins 2 can improve heat dissipation efficiency by expanding the surface area, and the heat of the cooling housing 1 can be transferred to the surrounding environment to dissipate heat from the cooling housing 1, which is beneficial to improving the cooling effect of the cooling component 10.
[0044] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 The cooling component 10 further includes a mounting member 3, which is disposed on the cooling housing 1 and is used to mount the cooling housing 1.
[0045] Mounting component 3 can be provided as one or multiple. When multiple mounting components 3 are provided, they are spaced apart on the cooling housing 1. By using multiple mounting components 3 to install the cooling housing 1, the number of support points for the cooling housing 1 is increased, which helps to improve the reliability of the connection of the cooling components. For example, four mounting components 3 can be provided, distributed at the four corners of the cooling housing 1. Of course, the number and specific placement of mounting components 3 can be set according to actual installation needs and are not limited here.
[0046] For example, mounting component 3 can be an L-shaped connecting plate. One side of mounting component 3 is connected to the cooling housing 1, and the other side can be installed inside the server rack body 200. Both ends of mounting component 3 are provided with mounting holes, allowing mounting component 3 to be connected to the cooling housing 1 or the server rack body 200 by screws. Mounting component 3 can also be connected to the server rack body 200 by means of snap-fit or other methods. Those skilled in the art can set the specific structure of mounting component 3 according to the actual installation scenario, and no restrictions are imposed here.
[0047] It is understandable that by setting the mounting part 3 on the cooling housing 1, the cooling housing 1 can be fixed by the mounting part 3, which can facilitate the installation of the cooling housing 1 and improve the installation efficiency.
[0048] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the liquid cooling assembly 100 also includes a connecting component 4. Two cooling components 10 are arranged at an interval between the upper and lower parts. The space formed between the upper and lower cooling components 10 is used to accommodate the server 500. The upper and lower cooling components 10 are connected by the connecting component 4 so that the lower cooling component 10 supports the upper cooling component 10 through the connecting component 4.
[0049] Specifically, one or more connecting parts 4 can be provided. When multiple connecting parts 4 are provided, they are distributed around the circumference of the cooling part 10. By providing multiple connecting parts 4, the robustness of the connection between the lower and upper cooling parts 10 can be improved. For example, four connecting parts 4 can be provided, located at the four corners of the upper and lower cooling parts 10.
[0050] Understandably, when the server 500 is not installed in a rack, the lower cooling component 10 can support the upper cooling component 10 by using the connecting component 4. This allows both the bottom and top of the server 500 to be cooled by the cooling component 10, and the upper cooling component 10 can contact the top of the server 500 without putting excessive pressure on the server 500 and damaging it. This is beneficial for improving the cooling effect of the server 500.
[0051] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the connecting component 4 includes a first connecting seat 41, a second connecting seat 42, and a connecting support member 43. The first connecting seat 41 is disposed on the lower cooling housing 1; the second connecting seat 42 is disposed on the upper cooling housing 1; the first connecting part of the connecting support member 43 is connected to the first connecting seat 41, and the second connecting part of the connecting support member 43 is connected to the second connecting seat 42.
[0052] When multiple connecting components 4 are provided, multiple first connecting seats 41 are provided on the lower cooling housing 1, and multiple second connecting seats 42 are provided on the upper cooling housing 1. A connecting support 43 connects the first connecting seats 41 and their corresponding second connecting seats 42. For example, the four corners of the lower cooling housing 1 are provided with first connecting seats 41, and the four corners of the upper cooling housing 1 are provided with second connecting seats 42. The positions of the four first connecting seats 41 and the four second connecting seats 42 correspond one-to-one, and four corresponding connecting support 43s are provided. A connecting support 43 connects the corresponding first connecting seats 41 and second connecting seats 42.
[0053] It is understandable that by setting the first connecting seat 41, a support point can be formed on the lower cooling housing 1. Similarly, by setting the second connecting seat 42 on the upper cooling housing 1, a support point can be formed on the upper cooling housing 1. Then, by connecting the first connecting seat 41 and the second connecting seat 42 through the connecting support member 43, support can be formed on the upper cooling component 10.
[0054] In this embodiment, the connecting support 43 is tunably connected to the first connecting seat 41. And / or, the connecting support 43 is tunably connected to the second connecting seat 42.
[0055] In detail, the connecting support 43 is arbitrarily connected to the first connecting seat 41 and arbitrarily connected to the second connecting seat 42. Alternatively, the connecting support 43 can be arbitrarily connected to the first connecting seat 41 and arbitrarily connected to the second connecting seat 42. Or, the connecting support 43 can be arbitrarily connected to both the first and second connecting seats 41. All of these connection methods allow for adjustment of the distance between the lower and upper cooling components 10.
[0056] For example, such as Figure 6As shown, the connecting support 43 includes bolts. A first threaded hole is provided on the first connecting seat 41, and a second threaded hole is provided on the second connecting seat 42. The bolts are threadedly connected to the first and second threaded holes, respectively. By rotating the bolts, the distance between the upper and lower cooling components 10 can be adjusted, thus adapting to servers 500 of different heights and improving the cooling effect on the server 500. Alternatively, the connecting support 43 can be configured as a support plate, with multiple first connecting holes spaced apart on the support plate. Second connecting holes are provided on the first connecting seat 41 and the second connecting seat 42, respectively. By connecting the first connecting holes at different positions on the support plate to the second connecting holes of the first or second connecting seat 41, the distance between the lower and upper cooling components 10 can still be adjusted. Of course, those skilled in the art can configure the specific structures of the first connecting seat 41, the second connecting seat 42, and the connecting support 43 in other forms as needed, which are not limited here.
[0057] It is understood that by adjusting the position of the connecting support 43 to the first connecting seat 41 and / or the second connecting seat 42, the distance between the lower cooling component 10 and the upper cooling component 10 can be adjusted by adjusting the connection position of the connecting support 43 to the first connecting seat 41 and / or the second connecting seat 42. This allows the liquid cooling assembly 100 to be suitable for cooling services at different heights, thus expanding the application range of the liquid cooling assembly 100.
[0058] When using the liquid cooling component 100 in this embodiment, if a server 500 is provided with one cooling component 10, the cooling component can be located below or above the server 500. If a server 500 is provided with two cooling components 10, the two cooling components 10 are located above and below the server 500, respectively. The heat dissipation fins 2 of the cooling component 10 located below the server 500 are provided on the surface of the cooling housing 1 away from the server 500, and the heat dissipation fins 2 of the cooling component 10 located above the server 500 are provided on the surface of the cooling housing away from the server 500. The lower cooling component and the upper cooling component 10 are connected by the connecting component 4. When the cooling component 10 is used for heat dissipation, the cooling medium is introduced into the cooling chamber 11 through the cooling medium inlet. The first chamber 111 of the bottom wall 14 can be filled with the cooling medium. There is no gap in the position of the bottom wall 14 corresponding to the server 500. The bottom wall 14 can better exchange heat with the server, improving the uniformity of cooling of the server 500 by the cooling component 10. At the same time, as the cooling medium after heat exchange continuously flows out from the cooling medium outlet 13, the cooling medium in the cooling shell 1 is continuously replaced to ensure the heat exchange effect.
[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 5As shown, the server rack includes a rack body 200, a liquid cooling assembly 100, and a server 500. The liquid cooling assembly 100 is disposed inside the rack body 200; the server 500 is disposed inside the receiving cavity 16 of the liquid cooling assembly 100.
[0060] Specifically, the rack body 200 has a mounting cavity and an openable cabinet door, allowing the liquid cooling assembly 100 and server 500 to be installed inside the mounting cavity by opening the cabinet door. Furthermore, to facilitate the installation of the liquid cooling assembly 100 and server 500, a mounting bracket 201 can be provided inside the mounting cavity, and the server 500 and liquid cooling assembly 100 can be mounted on the mounting bracket 201. More specifically, the cooling component 10 is mounted on the mounting bracket 201 via a mounting member 3.
[0061] The server rack can include one or more servers 500. When there are multiple servers 500, the number of corresponding liquid cooling components 100 is also increased accordingly, so that each server 500 can be cooled by the liquid cooling components 100 to improve the cooling effect of the server 500.
[0062] In this embodiment, the liquid cooling assembly 100 may include one or two cooling components 10. When there is one cooling component 10, the cooling component 10 is placed at the bottom of the server 500. When there are two cooling components 10, one cooling component 10 is placed above and one below the server 500.
[0063] In this embodiment, the server rack body 200 is equipped with the liquid cooling component 100 described above, allowing the server 500 to contact the bottom wall 14 of the cooling housing 1 filled with coolant. This improves the uniformity of cooling of the server 500 by the cooling component, thereby enhancing the reliability and safety of the server rack.
[0064] In this embodiment, as As shown, the server rack also includes a main liquid inlet pipe 300 and a main liquid outlet pipe 400 disposed on the rack body 200. The main liquid inlet pipe 300 is connected to the media inlet 12 through a branch liquid inlet pipe, and the main liquid outlet pipe 400 is connected to the media outlet 13 through an outlet liquid outlet pipe.
[0065] It should be noted that when the liquid cooling assembly 100 includes multiple cooling components 10 or is equipped with multiple liquid cooling assemblies 100, the main liquid inlet pipe 300 is connected to multiple branch liquid inlet pipes, and the main liquid outlet pipe 400 is connected to multiple outlet liquid outlet pipes. Each medium inlet 12 is connected to one branch liquid inlet pipe, and each medium outlet 13 is connected to one outlet liquid outlet pipe. The main liquid inlet pipe 300 is connected to the liquid outlet of the refrigeration unit, and the main liquid outlet pipe 400 is connected to the liquid inlet of the refrigeration unit. Thus, the cooling medium output from the refrigeration unit enters the cooling assembly through the main liquid inlet pipe 300, cools the server 500 through the cooling assembly, and then flows to the main liquid outlet pipe 400 through the cooling medium outlet 13. The heated cooling medium flowing out of the main liquid outlet pipe 400 returns to the refrigeration unit for refrigeration recycling. The refrigeration unit is conventional existing technology, and its specific structure and working principle will not be detailed here.
[0066] It can be understood that by setting a main liquid inlet pipe 300 and a main liquid outlet pipe 400 inside the cabinet body 200, and connecting the main liquid inlet pipe 300 to the medium inlet 12 through a branch liquid inlet pipe and the main liquid outlet pipe 400 to the medium outlet 13 through a branch liquid outlet pipe, it is beneficial to simplify the pipeline structure and facilitate the supply and drainage of liquid to different cooling components 10.
