[0040] If the background art part does not describe the defects of the related art in detail, the defects of the related art are analyzed in detail here to introduce the present solution.

[0041] As the data center develops towards high density, large scale, and intelligence, the evolution of the power supply architecture is changing from traditional distributed PDU (Power Distribution Unit) power supply to centralized and efficient power supply to meet the requirements of higher power density, lower energy consumption, and more intelligent management. The centralized power supply architecture is still in the stage of exploration and development, and the existing architecture is modified on the basis of the power supply method of the traditional cabinet 1. The nodes are inserted from the front, and the busbar is located behind the cabinet 1.

[0042] The following combines Figures 1 to 13 , to describe the embodiments of the present invention.

[0043] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, a cabinet 1 is provided, including a cabinet body 101 and a first busbar 102.

[0044] The first busbar 102 is connected to the cabinet 101 and is located at one end of the cabinet 101 in the depth direction, and is used to connect the power supply. An adapter 1021 is formed on the first busbar 102. The cabinet 101 can accommodate the power supply frame 2. The adapter 1021 can be connected to the adapter 103, and the adapter 103 is used to connect between the first busbar 102 and the input end of the power supply frame 2.

[0045] During the assembly process of the cabinet 1 of the embodiment of the present invention, the power supply can be connected to the first busbar 102, and the first busbar 102 is connected to the power supply frame 2 through the adapter 103. The power supply frame 2 can convert the current provided by the power supply into direct current that can be used by the power nodes. The first busbar 102 is arranged at one end of the server cabinet 1 along the depth direction, so that after the power supply frame 2 is plugged into the cabinet 1, the first busbar 102 can be located at one side of the power supply frame 2 and will not be completely covered by the power supply frame 2, thereby facilitating the operator to electrically connect the power supply frame 2 to the first busbar 102 through the adapter 103.

[0046] Therefore, the present application uses the first busbar 102 to replace a large number of cables to connect between the power supply and the power supply frame 2. The first busbar 102 itself occupies a small volume, and the first busbar 102 cooperates with the adapter 103, and the connection relationship is clear. It can overcome the defects of connecting the power supply and the power supply frame 2 through a large number of cables, which causes a complicated wiring process and occupies a large space. It can facilitate the installation and maintenance of the cabinet 1, and save more space for deploying electrical equipment, which helps to improve the density of the cabinet 1.

[0047] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first busbar 102 is arranged at one end of the cabinet 101 along the depth direction, which means that the first busbar 102 is arranged in the area at one end of the cabinet 101 along the depth direction. The setting position of the first busbar 102 may be at a certain distance from the edge of the cabinet 1, and is not necessarily at the edge of the cabinet 101.

[0048] In one embodiment, the first busbar 102 is disposed at the front end of the cabinet 101 .

[0049] As a convertible implementation, in an embodiment not shown in the drawings, the first busbar 102 is disposed at the rear end of the cabinet 101 .

[0050] In one embodiment, the first busbar 102 extends in a vertical direction and is connected to a cabinet column 1011 .

[0051] The depth direction of the server cabinet 1 generally refers to the horizontal distance between the front and rear of the cabinet 1 , that is, the straight line length from the front door to the rear door of the cabinet 1 .

[0052] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in a drawing, the first busbar 102 extends in the horizontal direction and is provided on the top wall 1012 or the bottom wall 1013 of the cabinet 101.

[0053] In an embodiment, side plates are provided on the sides of the cabinet 101, and the side plates are connected to the cabinet columns 1011. The side plates can be fixed on both sides of the cabinet 1 to form an enclosed space, protecting the devices inside the cabinet 1 from external physical damage, such as dust, water mist, mechanical shock, static electricity, etc., reducing the risk of failure of the server devices. The side plates can also prevent dust, moisture and other pollutants from entering the inside of the cabinet 1, thus maintaining the normal operation of the server devices, extending the service life of the devices, and being able to hide the messy cables and other unsightly parts inside the server cabinet 1, making the cabinet 1 look neat and orderly.

[0054] Among them, the first busbar 102 is preferably but not limited to a copper busbar or an aluminum busbar, etc.

[0055] In an embodiment, the cabinet 101 is welded by galvanized steel plates and can be used to carry the equipment on the rack, including power consumption nodes, power supply frames 2, and power supply systems, water supply systems, network systems, etc.

[0056] Among them, the water supply system includes but is not limited to a coolant distribution unit, a supply and return liquid manifold, a circulation pump, etc.

[0057] The network system includes but is not limited to a network switch and a cable tray, etc.

[0058] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in a drawing, the cabinet 101 can also be optionally made of aluminum alloy, carbon fiber reinforced plastic, fiberglass polyester, steel-aluminum hybrid material, or conductive plastic and metal lining.

[0059] In an embodiment, the power supply can be an AC power supply. The alternating current is transmitted to the inside of the power supply frame 2 through the first busbar 102 and the adapter 103. The power supply frame 2 can convert the alternating current into direct current, so as to supply power to the power consumption nodes in the cabinet 1. Supplying power to the cabinet 1 through an AC power supply can maintain a high conversion efficiency during long-distance transmission, is widely applicable to most devices, is easy to adjust the voltage through a transformer, has a small transmission loss during high-voltage power transmission, and does not require additional conversion equipment.

[0060] As a transformable embodiment, the power supply can also be a high-voltage direct current. The high-voltage direct current is transmitted to the inside of the power supply frame 2 through the first busbar 102 and the adapter 103. The power supply frame 2 can convert the high-voltage direct current into low-voltage direct current available for the power consumption nodes, so as to supply power to the power consumption nodes in the cabinet 1.

[0061] The cabinet 1 is powered by a DC power supply, which can be stored and transmitted by means of batteries, etc., and is suitable for applications that require long-term storage or long-distance transmission of energy. The control and regulation are relatively easy, especially in situations where a stable voltage is required.

[0062] In one embodiment, the first busbar 102 includes an insulating housing 1022 , a first electrical conductor 1023 , and a second electrical conductor 1024 .

[0063] The insulating housing 1022 is connected to the cabinet 101. The first conductor 1023 is disposed in the insulating housing 1022. The second conductor 1024 is disposed in the insulating housing 1022 and is spaced apart from the first conductor 1023. The adapter 1021 includes a first avoidance hole 10211 and a second avoidance hole 10212 disposed on the insulating housing 1022. The first avoidance hole 10211 can expose the first conductor 1023, and the second avoidance hole 10212 can expose the second conductor 1024.

[0064] By such arrangement, the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 can be confined in the insulating housing 1022 , and confined on the cabinet 101 through the insulating housing 1022 .

[0065] The adapter 103 can pass through the first avoidance hole 10211 and the second avoidance hole 10212 to be connected to the power frame 2 .

[0066] The insulating shell 1022 is preferably connected to the cabinet 101 by fasteners, bonding, welding or clamping, but is not limited to the above.

[0067] As a convertible implementation, in an embodiment not shown in the drawings, the adapter 103 is integrally connected to the first busbar 102 to facilitate the connection between the first busbar 102 and the power supply frame 2 .

[0068] As a convertible implementation, in an embodiment not shown in the accompanying drawings, a first avoidance hole 10211 and a second avoidance hole 10212 are provided on the insulating shell 1022, and connectors are provided at the parts of the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 for connecting with the power frame 2, and the first avoidance hole 10211 and the second avoidance hole 10212 can expose the connectors on the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024, respectively.

[0069] In one embodiment, the power source is an AC power source, the first conductor 1023 is a neutral line, and the second conductor 1024 is a live line.

[0070] As a convertible implementation, the power source is a DC power source, in which case the first conductor 1023 is the positive pole and the second conductor 1024 is the negative pole.

[0071] In one embodiment, an insulating separator is provided between the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 to prevent a short circuit between the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024, which may cause electric arcs, equipment damage or even fires, and helps reduce the electromagnetic interference between the first conductive member 110 and the second conductive member 111. Among them, the insulating separator is preferably but not limited to an insulating partition. The insulating partition is usually made of materials with high strength and high insulation performance, such as epoxy boards, ceramics, etc.

[0072] In one embodiment, insulating sleeves are respectively wrapped around the outer peripheries of the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024. The insulating sleeves are used for wrapping to prevent electric leakage and short circuits. The insulating sleeves are usually made of insulating materials such as rubber and plastics, and have good insulation performance and wear resistance.

[0073] In one embodiment, insulating layers are formed on the surfaces of the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024. The insulating layers are preferably but not limited to insulating paints coated on the surfaces of the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024.

[0074] As another alternative embodiment, in one embodiment, air insulation is adopted between the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024. By reasonably designing the structure and spacing of the first busbar 102, a certain air gap is maintained between the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024, thereby achieving insulation. This method is simple and reliable.

[0075] In one embodiment, a leakage protection device is provided inside the cabinet 101. Once a leakage occurs, the leakage protection device will immediately act to cut off the power supply to protect the safety of personnel and equipment.

[0076] The first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 are preferably but not limited to being made of conductive materials such as copper bars or aluminum bars.

[0077] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the cross-section of the insulating housing 1022 is U-shaped. The first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 can be inserted into the housing through the open side of the U-shape, and the open side of the insulating housing 1022 is connected to the cabinet column 1011.

[0078] As an alternative embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, the insulating housing 1022 is a tubular housing, and the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 are inserted into the tubular housing through the ends of the tubular housing.

[0079] In one embodiment, the adapter 1021 includes a first conductive row and a second conductive row. The first end of the first conductive row passes through the first avoidance hole 10211 and is conductively connected to the first conductor 1023. The second end of the first conductive row is provided with a connector, which is plugged into the input end of the power frame 2;

[0080] The first end of the second conductive row passes through the second avoidance hole 10212 and is conductively connected to the second conductor 1024 . The second end of the second conductive row is provided with a connector, which is plugged into the input end of the power frame 2 .

[0081] The first conductive bar and the second conductive bar can be selected as flexible copper bars or aluminum bars, so that the operator can bend the first conductive bar and the second conductive bar during the connection process, and then connect the connectors at the second ends of the first conductive bar and the second conductive bar to the power frame 2.

[0082] One end of the first conductive bar and the second conductive bar is preferably but not limited to being connected to the first busbar 102 by bolt connection or welding.

[0083] As a convertible implementation, the first conductive bar and the second conductive bar may also be rigid conductive bars, and are bent to facilitate connection between the first busbar 102 and the power frame 2 .

[0084] In one embodiment, the adapter 1021 includes a first cable and a second cable, the first end of the first cable passes through the first avoidance hole 10211 and is electrically connected to the first conductor 1023, and the second end of the first cable is provided with a connector, which is plugged into the input end of the power supply frame 2;

[0085] The first end of the second cable passes through the second avoidance hole 10212 and is electrically connected to the second conductor 1024 . The second end of the second cable is provided with a connector, which is plugged into the input end of the power supply frame 2 .

[0086] The first ends of the first cable and the second cable are preferably connected to the first busbar 102 by bolting or welding, but not limited thereto.

[0087] In one embodiment, the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 are spaced apart in the depth direction of the chassis in the insulating housing 1022. The first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 are larger in the depth direction of the cabinet 101 than in the width direction of the cabinet 101.

[0088] By setting it in this way, when the first end of the adapter 103 is connected to the first busbar 102, the larger surfaces of the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 can be used to connect to the adapter 103, which helps to strengthen the connection strength between the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 and the adapter 103, and reduces the resistance at the connection between the first conductive member 110 and the second conductive member 111 and the adapter 103.

[0089] In one embodiment, the first end is the front end of the cabinet 1, and the second end is the rear end of the cabinet 1.

[0090] As a variant embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, the first end may alternatively be the rear end of the cabinet 1, and the second end may alternatively be the front end of the cabinet 1.

[0091] As a variant embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, the first conductor 1023 and the second conductor 1024 may also be arranged such that their dimension in the depth direction of the cabinet body 101 is smaller than the dimension of the first conductor 1023 in the width direction of the cabinet body 101.

[0092] In one embodiment, the cabinet body 101 has cabinet columns 1011, the first busbar 102 is arranged inside the cabinet body 101 and connected to the cabinet columns 1011, connection through-holes are formed on the top wall 1012 or the bottom wall 1013 of the cabinet body 101, and the first busbar 102 has a connection terminal that passes through the connection through-hole.

[0093] By setting it in this way, the first busbar 102 can be arranged inside the cabinet 1, so that it is convenient for the operator to connect the first busbar 102 to the power supply frame 2. On this basis, the connection terminal passes through the top wall 1012 or the bottom wall 1013 of the cabinet 1 and exits the cabinet body 101, which is convenient for accessing power from the chassis.

[0094] As a variant embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, connection through-holes are provided on both the top wall 1012 and the bottom wall 1013 of the cabinet body 101. These two methods can basically cover the power supply forms of the data center computer room.

[0095] As a variant embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in another drawing, the first busbar 102 is arranged on the cabinet columns 1011 and located outside the cabinet body 101. The power supply can be directly connected to the first busbar 102 outside the cabinet 1, and the adapter 103 can extend into the cabinet 1 bypassing the edge of the cabinet column 1011 and be connected to the power supply frame 2.

[0096] In one embodiment, the connection through-hole is formed on the top wall 1012 of the cabinet body 101, and the connection terminal passes through the top of the cabinet 1 and exits the cabinet body 101.

[0097] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in a drawing, connection through-holes are formed on the bottom wall 1013 of the cabinet body 101, and the connection terminals pass through the bottom of the cabinet 1 and extend out of the cabinet body 101.

[0098] As another transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in a drawing, the connection terminals of the first bus bar 102 are arranged inside the cabinet body 101, and the power cable extends into the cabinet body 101 and is connected to the input end of the first bus bar 102.

[0099] In an embodiment, a grounding part is formed on the cabinet body 101, and a conductive part is formed on the insulating housing 1022, and the conductive part is in contact with the grounding part.

[0100] By setting like this, the insulating housing 1022 can play the roles of physical protection and grounding at the same time, can simplify the assembly process of the first bus bar 102, and helps to reduce the space occupied by the first bus bar 102.

[0101] Among them, the grounding part is preferably but not limited to a grounding bar, etc. The insulating housing 1022 can be selected as a conductive housing with an insulating layer formed on its surface. A part of the insulating layer on the surface of the insulating housing 1022 is removed to form the conductive part. When the first bus bar 102 is installed on the cabinet body 101, the conductive part is in contact with the grounding part, so as to realize the grounding of the cabinet body 101.

[0102] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in a drawing, the first bus bar 102 can also be directly connected to the main grounding terminal of the building (such as the grounding bar or grounding grid in the power distribution room) through a copper cable with a cross-sectional area ≥ 6 mm².

[0103] In an embodiment, the first bus bars 102 are arranged in pairs and are respectively arranged on both sides of the cabinet body 101 along the width direction.

[0104] By setting like this, the two first bus bars 102 can access different computer room power supplies to achieve redundant power input, and still maintain the power supply of the cabinet 1 when one of the circuits is powered off, improving the reliability and stability of the system.

[0105] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in a drawing, only one side of the cabinet body 101 is provided with the first bus bar 102.

[0106] In an embodiment, the cabinet 1 further includes a second bus bar 104. As Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, the second busbar 104 is disposed within the cabinet body 101. The extending direction of the second busbar 104 is parallel to the extending direction of the first busbar 102. The second busbar 104 is used to connect the output terminal of the power supply frame 2. The cabinet body 101 can also accommodate power consumption nodes, and the second busbar 104 can be plugged into the power consumption nodes.

[0107] In the embodiment of the present application, the second busbar 104 can be used to transmit the direct current output by the power supply frame 2 to the power consumption nodes. The power consumption nodes can be plugged into the second busbar 104 in a blind plugging manner, thus facilitating the assembly of the cabinet body 101.

[0108] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, the output terminal of the power supply frame 2 can also be optionally connected through a cable, a backplane, or a conductive track.

[0109] In one embodiment, the cabinet body 101 has a first end and a second end in the depth direction. The first busbar 102 is disposed at the first end of the cabinet body 101. The cabinet 1 further includes a third busbar 105.

[0110] As Figure 5 shown in the figure, along the depth direction of the cabinet body 101, the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105 are located in the middle of the cabinet 1. The third busbar 105 is electrically connected to the second busbar 104. The extending direction of the third busbar 105 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the second busbar 104, and is disposed on the side of the second busbar 104 away from the first busbar 102.

[0111] The power consumption nodes include a first node 3 and a second node 4. The thickness direction of the first node 3 is parallel to the extending direction of the second busbar 104, and can pass through the first end of the cabinet body 101 and be plugged into the second busbar 104. The thickness direction of the second node 4 is parallel to the extending direction of the third busbar 105, and can pass through the second end of the cabinet body 101 and be plugged into the third busbar 105.

[0112] In the related art, the busbar is generally disposed behind the cabinet 1, and the power consumption nodes can only be inserted from the front side of the cabinet 1, which limits the power density of the cabinet 1 and cannot maximize the use of the computer room and the cabinet 1 space; and since the busbar generally extends in the vertical direction, the power consumption nodes can only be placed horizontally, resulting in the inability to accommodate vertically inserted nodes in the cabinet 1, and the configuration of the cabinet 1 is not flexible.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present application, the second busbar 104 extends vertically by itself, so that the first end of the cabinet 101 can be used to plug in the horizontal first node 3, and the third busbar 105 extends horizontally by itself, so that the rear end of the cabinet 101 can be used to plug in the vertical second node 4. Thus, the cabinet 1 can be compatible with both horizontally plugged nodes and vertically plugged nodes, making the configuration of the cabinet 1 more flexible, improving the compatibility of the cabinet 1, maximizing the utilization of the space of the computer room and the cabinet 1, and helping to increase the power density of the cabinet 1. Moreover, the first node 3 can draw power from the second busbar 104, and the second node 4 can draw power from the third busbar 105, ensuring that nodes with different functions can obtain stable power, meeting the working requirements such as high-energy consumption operation of the graphics processing unit nodes and data transmission of the switching nodes, and guaranteeing the stable operation of the system.

[0114] On this basis, since the input end of the power supply frame 2 is usually connected to the power supply at the rear side of the cabinet 1, and the input end and the output end of the power supply frame 2 are arranged on the same side of the cabinet 1, it results in that usually only one side of the cabinet body 101 in the related art can be used to insert the power-consuming nodes, restricting the improvement of the power density of the cabinet 1.

[0115] In the cabinet 1 of the embodiment of the present application, a first busbar 102 is arranged at the first end of the cabinet body 101. By such an arrangement, the power supply can be input into the cabinet 1 at the first end of the cabinet 1, and the middle part of the cabinet 1 can be used to accommodate the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105. Thus, both the first end and the second end of the cabinet 1 can insert the power-consuming nodes, ensuring that the cabinet 1 can be compatible with both horizontally plugged nodes and vertically plugged nodes, and improving the compatibility and power density of the cabinet 1.

[0116] Among them, the power-consuming nodes preferably but are not limited to including GPU servers (Graphics Processing Unit Servers), CPU servers (Central Processing Unit Servers), switching nodes, etc.

[0117] Among them, the switching node can be used for data exchange and communication between nodes, building a data transmission network.

[0118] The graphics processing unit server can cooperate with the switching node to realize data processing and transmission.

[0119] In the embodiment of the present application, it should be noted that, as Figure 5 shown, the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105 are arranged at the middle position of the cabinet body 101 in the depth direction, which does not mean that the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105 are arranged at the exact middle of the cabinet 1 in the depth direction. The specific positions of the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105 can be adaptively adjusted according to the sizes of the first node 3 and the second node 4.

[0120] In one embodiment, the second busbar 104 includes a plurality of sub-busbars 1041. The plurality of sub-busbars 1041 are sequentially arranged along the length direction of the second busbar 104. There are a plurality of third busbars 105, and each third busbar 105 is connected to one sub-busbar 1041.

[0121] By setting like this, the cabinet 1 of the present application separates a plurality of accommodation areas in the cabinet body 101, and a power supply frame 2, a second busbar 104 and a third busbar 105 can be configured in each accommodation area.

[0122] Since the length of each sub-busbar 1041 is relatively small, the resistance of each sub-busbar 1041 is small. Without setting a relatively large cross-sectional area of the sub-busbar 1041, good conductivity can be ensured. Furthermore, while ensuring the conductivity of the second busbar 104, the cost and weight of the second busbar 104 are reduced, the space occupied by the second busbar 104 is reduced, and it is allowed to replace the commonly used copper material of the second busbar 104 with an aluminum material with slightly worse conductivity but lower price to reduce the cost of the second busbar 104 while ensuring the conductive effect.

[0123] Also, in the present application, a first busbar 102 is provided on the cabinet body 101, and transfer parts 1021 are respectively provided at positions corresponding to the power supply frames 2 in each accommodation area, which can ensure that the first busbar 102 is respectively connected to the power supply frames 2 in a plurality of accommodation areas with a relatively short transmission distance, thereby shortening the distance that the power supply needs to cross to be connected to the power supply frames 2 in each accommodation area, and thus reducing the transmission loss.

[0124] Secondly, a power supply frame 2 is respectively provided in each accommodation area, which enables the power supply frames 2 and the power consumption nodes in other accommodation areas to continue to work normally when the power supply frame 2 in one of the accommodation areas has an abnormality, thereby reducing the fault area of the cabinet 1 and ensuring that the fault in one area will not spread to other components or devices.

[0125] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the number of accommodation areas is not limited. Exemplarily, in an optional embodiment, the accommodation areas can be four and are sequentially arranged in the vertical direction, and the height of each accommodation area is equal.

[0126] In the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the said features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0127] As a transformable embodiment, the accommodation areas can also be selected to be three, five, six or other numbers, and the volume of each accommodation area can also be selected to be different, so as to be suitable for different types of nodes.

[0128] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, each accommodation area can optionally include one or more power supply boxes 2, which can be adaptively set by comprehensively considering power supply redundancy, equipment load, the space of the cabinet 1 and future expansion requirements.

[0129] In the embodiment of the present application, the model and quantity of the power supply box 2 are not limited. Exemplarily, in an optional embodiment, the height of the power supply box 2 is 1U.

[0130] Exemplarily, in one embodiment, each accommodation area includes three power supply boxes 2, and three groups of first avoidance holes 10211 and second avoidance holes 10212 are correspondingly provided at positions corresponding to the conductive sheet rows on the insulating housing 1022. The three power supply boxes 2 are all connected to the first bus bar 102.

[0131] In one embodiment, as Figure 8 shown, the cabinet body 101 further includes cabinet columns 1011, a plurality of layers and a first installation frame 108.

[0132] Among them, the plurality of layers are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction and are connected to the cabinet columns 1011 for partitioning a plurality of accommodation areas in the cabinet 1.

[0133] The first installation frame 108 is used to accommodate the power supply box 2 and the first node 3, and can be detachably connected to the layer board through the first end of the cabinet 1. At least one first installation frame 108 is provided in each accommodation area, and the mother-son bus bar 1041 and the third bus bar 105 are connected to the first installation frame 108.

[0134] By setting like this, by partitioning a plurality of installation areas in the cabinet body 101, it also enables the first installation frame 108 to not only be used to accommodate the power supply box 2 and the first node 3, but also be used to install the mother-son bus bar 1041 and the third bus bar 105. The operator can install the second bus bar 104 and the third bus bar 105 in the first installation frame 108, then install the first installation frame 108 on the layer board, and then plug the power supply box 2 and the first node 3 into the installation frame, without having to complete the installation operation of the second bus bar 104 and the third bus bar 105 in the middle of the cabinet body 101, which greatly facilitates the assembly of the cabinet 1 and reduces the labor intensity of the operator.

[0135] In one embodiment, the layer board is preferably but not limited to be connected to the cabinet body 101 by means of welding connection, bolt connection or track connection, etc.

[0136] In one embodiment, both ends of the primary-secondary busbar 1041 are respectively connected to the left and right sidewalls of the first mounting frame 108, and both ends of the third primary busbar 105 are respectively connected to the upper and lower sidewalls of the first mounting frame 108.

[0137] The connection manner of the primary-secondary busbar 1041 and the third primary busbar 105 to the first mounting frame 108 is preferably but not limited to bolt connection.

[0138] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one drawing, the primary-secondary busbar 1041 is connected to the top wall 1012 or the bottom wall 1013 of the first mounting frame 108, and the third primary busbar 105 is connected to the sidewall of the first mounting frame 108.

[0139] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in another drawing, the first mounting frame 108 is not provided in the cabinet 1, the second primary busbar 104 and the third primary busbar 105 are arranged on the shelf of the cabinet body 101, and a first guiding slide rail 1081 extending along the depth direction of the cabinet 1 is formed on the sidewall of the cabinet 1. The power supply frame 2 and the first node 3 are installed in the cabinet 1 through the first guiding slide rail 1081.

[0140] The first guiding slide rail 1081 can guide the first node 3 and the power supply frame 2, reduce the damping required to be overcome during the process of inserting the first node 3 and the power supply frame 2 into the cabinet 1, and can limit the first node 3 and the power supply frame 2 after the installation is completed.

[0141] In one embodiment, the shelf includes a first shelf 106 and a second shelf 107 that are spaced apart along the depth direction of the cabinet body 101. The cabinet 1 further includes a cable tray and a supply-return liquid manifold. The cable tray and the supply-return liquid manifold are arranged between the first shelf 106 and the second shelf 107 and are inserted into the first node 3 and the second node 4.

[0142] By arranging like this, the cable tray can be used for the connection between the graphics processing unit node and the switching node. Usually, thousands of cables are arranged in the cable tray, which is responsible for transmitting the high-speed data signals required for inter-node communication.

[0143] The supply-return liquid manifold is used for efficiently distributing and recovering the coolant. The heat generated during the operation of the node is taken away by the circulating flow of the coolant, ensuring the stable heat dissipation of the server under high-density computing and ensuring that each component works within a suitable temperature range.

[0144] The cable tray and the supply-return liquid manifold can be arranged between the first shelf 106 and the second shelf 107, and are respectively inserted into the first node 3 and the second node 4, thereby realizing the liquid and signal connection between the cabinet 1 and the power-consuming node.

[0145] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, the signal connection between the cabinet 1 and the power consumption node may also be alternatively implemented through a cable or a plug-in backplane.

[0146] In one embodiment, the cabinet 1 further includes a second mounting frame 109. The second mounting frame 109 is used to accommodate the second node 4 and is detachably connected to the second layer board 107 through the second end of the cabinet body 101.

[0147] By setting it like this, the second mounting frame 109 can be connected to the second layer board 107 and mount and limit the second node 4.

[0148] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, the second mounting frame 109 is not provided in the cabinet 1, and second guiding slide rails 1091 extending in the depth direction of the cabinet body 101 are formed on the second layer board 107, the bottom wall 1013 and the top wall 1012 of the cabinet body 101. The second node 4 is directly inserted into the second guiding slide rails 1091. The second guiding slide rails 1091 can guide the second node 4, reduce the damping required to be overcome during the process of inserting the second node 4 into the cabinet 1, and can limit the second node 4 after the installation is completed.

[0149] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in another drawing, the second layer board 107 is not provided in the cabinet body 101, the second mounting frame 109 is directly and detachably connected inside the cabinet body 101, and the second node 4 is inserted into the second mounting frame 109 through the second guiding slide rails 1091. Among them, the second mounting frame 109 is preferably but not limited to being connected to the cabinet body 101 by welding, bolt connection, or through guiding slide rails.

[0150] In one embodiment, the mother-daughter busbar 1041 is arranged at the middle position of the cabinet body 101 in the width direction, and the second mounting frames 109 are arranged in pairs and are respectively arranged on both sides of the mother-daughter busbar 1041.

[0151] By setting it like this, the second nodes 4 can be symmetrically distributed in the cabinet 1, which helps to avoid local overheating inside the cabinet 1, and can make the center of gravity of the cabinet 1 centered, preventing the cabinet 1 from tilting or deforming due to uneven load. On this basis, symmetric wiring (such as power lines and data lines being arranged separately on the left and right) can reduce electromagnetic interference and improve network transmission quality.

[0152] In one embodiment, the second mounting frame 109 and the second node 4 are provided with avoiding notches 1092 at positions corresponding to the third busbar 105. By setting like this, when the second mounting frame 109 is mounted on the second layer board 107 and the second node 4 is inserted into the second mounting frame 109, the third busbar 105 can be located at the avoiding notches 1092 of the second mounting frame 109 and the second node 4. Therefore, the second mounting frame 109 and the second node 4 will not interfere with the third busbar 105, and the spaces above and below the third busbar 105 can both be used to accommodate the second node 4, which helps to increase the node density in the cabinet 1.

[0153] In one embodiment, a third busbar 105 is connected to each side of each main and sub busbar 1041. One of the third busbars 105 is connected to the main and sub busbar 1041 at the bottom of the main and sub busbar 1041, and the other third busbar 105 is connected to the main and sub busbar 1041 at the top of the main and sub busbar 1041. The avoiding notches 1092 on the second mounting frame 109 and the second node 4 are respectively arranged at positions corresponding to the third busbar 105.

[0154] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one drawing, the avoiding notches 1092 are not provided on the second mounting frame 109 and the second node 4. When the second node 4 is inserted into the third busbar 105, the third busbar 105 and the second node 4 are arranged in sequence along the depth direction of the cabinet 1.

[0155] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in another drawing, the main and sub busbar 1041 is arranged at one side position of the cabinet 1 and is connected to a third busbar 105.

[0156] In one embodiment, a first guiding slide rail 1081 is arranged in the first mounting frame 108. The first guiding slide rail 1081 is arranged on the side wall of the first mounting frame 108 along the width direction of the cabinet body 101 and extends along the depth direction of the cabinet body 101. The first node 3 and the power supply frame 2 can be slidably connected to the first guiding slide rail 1081.

[0157] The first guiding slide rail 1081 can guide the first node 3 and the power supply frame 2, reduce the damping required to be overcome during the process of inserting the first node 3 and the power supply frame 2 into the cabinet 1, and can limit the first node 3 and the power supply frame 2 after the installation is completed.

[0158] A second guiding slide rail 1091 is arranged in the second mounting frame 109. The second guiding slide rail 1091 is arranged on the top wall 1012 and the bottom wall 1013 of the second mounting frame 109 and extends along the depth direction of the cabinet body 101. The second node 4 can be slidably connected to the second guiding slide rail 1091.

[0159] The second guiding slide rail 1091 can guide the second node 4, reduce the damping to be overcome during the process of inserting the second node 4 into the cabinet 1, and can limit the position of the second node 4 after the installation is completed.

[0160] In one embodiment, the mother-son busbar 1041 includes a first positive electrode 10411 and a first negative electrode 10412 that are spaced apart in the width direction of the cabinet body 101, and the third mother busbar 105 includes a second positive electrode 1051 and a second negative electrode 1052 that are spaced apart in the vertical direction;

[0161] The first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051 are connected by bolts, and the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052 are connected by bolts.

[0162] Specifically, the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051 are respectively provided with a first bolt hole and a second bolt hole, and the bolt can pass through the first bolt hole and the second bolt hole to connect the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051.

[0163] In one embodiment, a bent edge is formed on one of the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051, and the bent edge is used to abut against the other of the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051, so as to facilitate the bolt connection between the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051. A bent edge is formed on one of the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052, and the bent edge can be used to abut against the other of the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052, so as to facilitate the bolt connection between the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052. The bent edge can not only be used for the bolt to pass through, but also be used to increase the contact area between the first positive electrode 10411, the second complete machine, and between the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052, and reduce the resistance at the contact position between the second mother busbar 104 and the third mother busbar 105.

[0164] In one embodiment, as Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown, the bent edges are formed on the first positive electrode 10411 and the first negative electrode 10412. As an alternative embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in a drawing, the bent edges are formed on the second positive electrode 1051 and the second negative electrode 1052.

[0165] In one embodiment, as Figure 11 shown, the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051 are integrally formed, and the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052 are integrally formed.

[0166] In one embodiment, as Figure 12As shown, a first conductive member 110 is provided between the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051, and a second conductive member 111 is provided between the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052.

[0167] As a transformable embodiment, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, a connector is provided between the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105 and they are connected to each other through the connector.

[0168] In one embodiment, the first conductive member 110 includes a first extension section 1101 and a second extension section 1102, and the planes where the first extension section 1101 and the second extension section 1102 are located are perpendicular to each other. By such an arrangement, the first extension section 1101 of the first conductive member 110 can be in surface contact with the first positive electrode 10411, and the second extension section 1102 of the first conductive member 110 can be in surface contact with the second positive electrode 1051, thereby reducing the resistance at the connection between the first positive electrode 10411 and the second positive electrode 1051.

[0169] In one embodiment, the second conductive member 111 includes a third extension section 1111 and a fourth extension section 1112, and the planes where the third extension section 1111 and the fourth extension section 1112 are located are perpendicular to each other. By such an arrangement, the third extension section 1111 can be in surface contact with the first negative electrode 10412, and the fourth extension section 1112 can be in surface contact with the second negative electrode 1052, thereby reducing the resistance at the connection between the first negative electrode 10412 and the second negative electrode 1052.

[0170] Among them, the first conductive member 110 and the second conductive member 111 are preferably but not limited to metal bars such as copper bars or aluminum bars.

[0171] In one embodiment, the first conductive member 110 and the second conductive member 111 are preferably but not limited to be connected between the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105 by means of welding connection or bolt connection.

[0172] Exemplarily, in the embodiment as shown in Figure 12 the first conductive member 110 and the second conductive member 111 are bolt - connected between the second busbar 104 and the third busbar 105.

[0173] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 the size of the second busbar 104 in the depth direction of the cabinet 101 is greater than the size of the second busbar 104 in the width direction of the cabinet 101, and the size of the third busbar 105 in the depth direction of the cabinet 101 is greater than the size of the third busbar 105 in the vertical direction.

[0174] By setting it like this, since the first node 3 and the second node 4 are inserted into the second bus bar 104 and the third bus bar 105 along the depth direction of the cabinet 1, therefore, setting the dimensions of the second bus bar 104 and the third bus bar 105 in the depth direction of the cabinet body 101 to be larger than the dimensions in the width direction of the cabinet body 101 can increase the contact area between the power consumption node and the bus bar, which helps to enhance the connection strength between the power consumption node and the bus bar and reduce the resistance at the contact position between the power consumption node and the bus bar.

[0175] In one embodiment, the first node 3 and the second node 4 are respectively inserted into the second bus bar 104 and the third bus bar 105 through power supply blind plug connectors. By setting it like this, during the process of inserting the second node 4 and the third node into the cabinet 1, the power supply blind plug connectors can float along the vertical or horizontal direction, thereby absorbing the manufacturing tolerances at the cabinet 1 end, so that the first node 3 and the second node 4 can be blindly plugged and connected to the second bus bar 104 and the third bus bar 105 respectively, and the connection is stable and reliable.

[0176] In one embodiment, the floating amounts of the power supply blind plug connectors along the vertical direction and the horizontal direction are both set to be greater than the cumulative manufacturing tolerances of the cabinet 1 to ensure that the floating range of the power supply blind plug connectors is sufficient to absorb the errors at the cabinet 1 end.

[0177] Exemplarily, in an alternative embodiment, the floating amount of the power supply blind plug connector along the horizontal direction is 2 mm to 6 mm. In a preferred embodiment, the floating amount of the power supply blind plug connector along the horizontal direction is 2 mm.

[0178] In an alternative embodiment, the floating amount of the power supply blind plug connector along the vertical direction is 2 mm to 6 mm. In a preferred embodiment, the floating amount of the power supply blind plug connector along the vertical direction is 2 mm.

[0179] In one embodiment, the power supply blind plug connector has inserts, and chamfers are provided on the inserts. The dimension of the chamfer along the horizontal direction is 4 mm, which can ensure that the power supply blind plug connector and the bus bar are guided and inserted into each other within the allowable floating amount range.

[0180] As a transformable implementation manner, in an embodiment not shown in one of the drawings, the second bus bar 104 and the third bus bar 105 can also be alternatively set to have dimensions along the depth direction of the cabinet 1 smaller than the dimensions along the width direction of the cabinet 1.

[0181] Next, the power supply process of the cabinet 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described, as Figure 13As shown: First, the AC power source is connected to the first busbar 102 through the terminal, and the first busbar 102 is connected to the power frame 2 through the adapter 103. The power frame 2 converts the AC power into DC power and outputs it to the second busbar 104. The DC power can be transmitted to the third busbar 105 through the second busbar 104. The first node 3 draws power from the second busbar 104, and the second node 4 draws power from the third busbar 105.

[0182] In one embodiment, the bottom of the cabinet 101 is further provided with feet. The feet can be used to contact the ground, support the cabinet 1 and the internal equipment, and adjust the height according to the specifications to ensure the levelness of the cabinet 1, compensate for the unevenness of the ground, prevent the cabinet 1 from sliding, and at the same time lift the bottom of the cabinet 1 off the ground to prevent water erosion, and promote airflow and heat dissipation at the bottom of the cabinet 1, so that cables can enter from the bottom of the cabinet 1 to avoid bending and squeezing.

[0183] In one embodiment, the cabinet 1 may be an artificial intelligence cabinet, which is a special cabinet 1 for artificial intelligence computing, and is usually equipped with multiple high-performance central processing units or graphics processing units to support large-scale deep learning model development and training. In order to improve computing power density, more nodes are required to be concentrated in the same cabinet 1 to achieve efficient use of resources.
