Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of server structures, and in particular to a server. Background Art

[0002] A server is a high-performance computer composed of hardware and software. It has a series of application services such as processing requests, storing data, transmitting information, and providing computing for clients. When the server is running, it will generate a lot of heat inside, and the server needs to be cooled in time.

[0003] In the related art, a cooling fan is installed inside the server to dissipate heat. After a cooling fan fails, the heat inside the server will continue to accumulate, affecting the operation of the server and increasing the difficulty of subsequent operation and maintenance. Moreover, the operation and maintenance personnel need to power off and shut down the server before removing the faulty fan, and also need to disassemble the casing, which reduces the operation and maintenance efficiency and cannot guarantee the normal use of the server during the maintenance process. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application provides a server to at least solve the problem in the related art that the operation and maintenance efficiency is low when repairing or replacing a faulty cooling fan inside the server and the server cannot be used normally during operation and maintenance.

[0005] The present application provides a server, comprising: a shell, the shell having a heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity, the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity having a first opening and a second opening; a first heat dissipation mechanism, the first heat dissipation mechanism being arranged in the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity; a second heat dissipation mechanism, the second heat dissipation mechanism being arranged on an outer wall surface of the shell; a control module, the control module being arranged in the shell, the control module being used to monitor abnormal operation data of the first heat dissipation mechanism, and being used to control the first heat dissipation mechanism to slide out of the shell from the first opening according to the abnormal operation data; the control module is also used to control the second heat dissipation mechanism to slide into the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity from the second opening while controlling the first heat dissipation mechanism to slide out of the shell; the control module is also used to monitor abnormal position data of the first heat dissipation mechanism while controlling the first heat dissipation mechanism to slide out of the shell, and trigger an alarm signal according to the abnormal position data.

[0006] Through this application, since the control module can monitor the operating status of the first heat dissipation mechanism in real time, it can be moved to the outside of the server in time when the first heat dissipation mechanism fails. The operation and maintenance personnel can replace or repair the first heat dissipation mechanism without disassembling the casing, which reduces the difficulty of operation and maintenance and improves the operation and maintenance speed; at the same time, it can also maintain the normal operation of the server and improve the disaster recovery capability of the server.

[0007] A spare second heat dissipation mechanism is also provided on the top outer wall of the shell. When the first heat dissipation mechanism moves to the outside of the server, the second heat dissipation mechanism moves down to the inside of the server, quickly replacing the first heat dissipation mechanism to continue to dissipate heat for the server, thereby preventing server overheating caused by failure of the first heat dissipation mechanism.

[0008] The control module can also monitor the position of the first heat dissipation mechanism in real time, and trigger an alarm signal when the first heat dissipation mechanism fails and is not removed from the server in time, so that the operation and maintenance personnel can remove the faulty first heat dissipation mechanism from the server as soon as possible, ensuring that the second heat dissipation mechanism can quickly replace the first heat dissipation mechanism to continue to dissipate heat for the server.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0035] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0036] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The server provided in this application includes: a housing 100, a first heat dissipation mechanism 200, a second heat dissipation mechanism 300 and a control module.

[0037] The housing 100 may be a rectangular housing having a heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity. The first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is disposed in the housing 100 and in the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity. The first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is used to dissipate heat from the server when the server is running.

[0038] The second heat dissipation mechanism 300 is disposed outside the housing 100 and on an outer wall surface of the housing 100 , which may be a top outer wall surface 101 .

[0039] The control module is arranged in the shell 100, and the control module is used to monitor the operating status of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200. When the control module detects that the operation of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is abnormal, the abnormal operation data of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is obtained; it indicates that the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 has a fault at this time.

[0040] The heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity has a first opening and a second opening, and the first opening and the second opening are located in different positions; wherein, the first opening can be set on the side outer wall surface 102 of the shell 100, and the second opening can be set on the top outer wall surface 101 of the shell 100.

[0041] When assembling the server, the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 can be placed into the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity through the first opening. If the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 malfunctions, the control module will control the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 to slide out of the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity through the first opening based on the acquired abnormal operation data of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200, thereby sliding out of the housing 100.

[0042] The second heat dissipation mechanism 300 is disposed at a position on the top outer wall surface 101 corresponding to the second opening, that is, the second heat dissipation mechanism 300 is located directly above the second opening.

[0043] While controlling the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 to slide out of the shell 100, the control module controls the second heat dissipation mechanism 300 to slide into the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity from the second opening, so that the second heat dissipation mechanism 300 can synchronously replace the faulty first heat dissipation mechanism 200 and continue to dissipate heat for the server when the server is running.

[0044] The server provided in the present application monitors the operating status of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 in real time through a control module. When the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 fails, it is moved to the outside of the server. The operation and maintenance personnel can replace or repair the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 without disassembling the casing, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation and maintenance and improving the operation and maintenance speed; at the same time, it can also maintain the normal operation of the server and improve the disaster recovery capability of the server.

[0045] The server provided in the present application is also provided with a spare second heat dissipation mechanism 300 on the top outer wall 101 of the shell 100. When the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is moved to the outside of the server, the second heat dissipation mechanism 300 moves down to the inside of the server, quickly replacing the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 to continue to dissipate heat for the server, thereby preventing the server from overheating due to a failure of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present application, the control module can monitor the installation position of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 while monitoring the operating status of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200; when the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 fails and the installation position of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is outside the server, it indicates that the position data of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is normal, and the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 has been successfully moved out of the server; when the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 fails and the installation position of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is still inside the server, it indicates that the position data of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is abnormal, and the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 has not been successfully moved out of the server, and operation and maintenance personnel intervention is required at this time.

[0047] While monitoring the abnormal operating data of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200, the control module also monitors the abnormal position data of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200. The control module will trigger an alarm signal based on the abnormal position data so that the operation and maintenance personnel can remove the faulty first heat dissipation mechanism 200 from the server as soon as possible, ensuring that the second heat dissipation mechanism 300 can quickly replace the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 to continue to dissipate heat for the server, thereby avoiding heat accumulation in the server.

[0048] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment of the present application, the server further includes: a first cover plate 401 .

[0049] The housing 100 further has a first accommodating cavity. The first accommodating cavity and the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity are adjacent and connected along the length direction of the housing 100. A first processing device 501 is provided in the first accommodating cavity. The first processing device 501 may be a server storage device.

[0050] The first accommodating cavity has a first maintenance opening 103 . The first maintenance opening 103 can be provided on the side outer wall 102 of the housing 100 . The first cover plate 401 can be detachably connected to the first maintenance opening 103 .

[0051] When the first processing device 501 fails, the first cover plate 401 is opened and replaced or repaired, which reduces the difficulty of operation and maintenance and improves the speed of operation and maintenance.

[0052] At the same time, since the first accommodating cavity and the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity are adjacent and connected, when the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 fails and the installation position of the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is still inside the server, the operation and maintenance personnel can open the first cover 401 and move the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 out of the server.

[0053] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment of the present application, the server further includes: a second cover plate 402 .

[0054] The housing 100 further has a second accommodating chamber, which is adjacent to and connected to the first accommodating chamber. Moreover, the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating chamber, the first accommodating chamber and the second accommodating chamber are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the housing 100 .

[0055] A second processing device 502 is disposed in the second accommodating cavity, and the second processing device 502 may be a server graphics card.

[0056] The second accommodating cavity has a second maintenance opening 104 , which can be provided on the lateral outer wall 102 of the housing 100 . The second maintenance opening 104 and the first maintenance opening 103 are spaced apart along the length direction of the housing 100 .

[0057] The second cover plate 402 is detachably connected to the second maintenance port 104. When the second processing device 502 fails, the second cover plate 402 can be opened and replaced or repaired, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation and maintenance and improving the speed of operation and maintenance.

[0058] At the same time, the server provided in the present application is provided with a maintenance port and a cover for closing the maintenance port above the first processing device 501 and the second processing device 502, respectively. When the first processing device 501 or the second processing device 502 fails, there is no need to dismantle the entire server casing. The faulty equipment can be replaced or repaired by removing the cover of the corresponding processing device, which makes it convenient for operation and maintenance personnel to inspect specific locations inside the server, reduces the difficulty of operation and maintenance of internal equipment of the server, and improves operation and maintenance efficiency.

[0059] The outer surfaces of the first cover plate 401 and the second cover plate 402 may also be provided with labels corresponding to the internal devices, so that operation and maintenance personnel can quickly identify faulty devices that need to be replaced or repaired.

[0060] refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment of the present application, the first cover plate 401 may be a rectangular cover plate, and the first maintenance opening 103 may be a rectangular opening; the first cover plate 401 is provided with a first mounting groove 4011 and a second mounting groove 4012 spaced apart, and the first mounting groove 4011 and the second mounting groove 4012 are both close to one of the edges of the first cover plate 401.

[0061] A first connecting member 4013 that can elastically extend and retract is provided in the first mounting groove 4011. The first connecting member 4013 includes a first spring 40131 and a first slider 40132. One end of the first spring 40131 along its elastic extension direction is connected to the first inner end surface of the first mounting groove 4011, and the first inner end surface is away from the edge of the first cover plate 401; the first slider 40132 is connected to the other end of the first spring 40131 along its elastic extension direction, and the first slider 40132 protrudes from the notch of the first mounting groove 4011; when the first spring 40131 elastically extends, the first spring 40131 pushes the first slider 40132 to move toward the second inner end surface of the first mounting groove 4011, and the second inner end surface is close to the edge of the first cover plate 401; when the first spring 40131 elastically shortens, the first spring 40131 pulls the first slider 40132 to move toward the first inner end surface of the first mounting groove 4011.

[0062] Similarly, a second connecting member 4014 that can elastically extend and retract is provided in the second mounting groove 4012, and the second connecting member 4014 includes a second spring 40141 and a second slider 40142. One end of the second spring 40141 along its elastic extension direction is connected to the third inner end surface of the second mounting groove 4012, and the third inner end surface is away from the edge of the first cover plate 401; the second slider 40142 is connected to the other end of the second spring 40141 along its elastic extension direction, and the second slider 40142 protrudes from the notch of the second mounting groove 4012; when the second spring 40141 elastically extends, the second spring 40141 pushes the second slider 40142 to move toward the fourth inner end surface of the second mounting groove 4012, and the fourth inner end surface is close to the edge of the first cover plate 401; when the second spring 40141 elastically shortens, the second spring 40141 pulls the second slider 40142 to move toward the third inner end surface of the second mounting groove 4012.

[0063] The connecting rod 4015 is located above the first cover plate 401. The connecting rod 4015 is connected to the first slider 40132 and the second slider 40142 at both ends along its axis. The connecting rod 4015 can push the first slider 40132 and the second slider 40142 to slide synchronously in the first mounting groove 4011 and the second mounting groove 4012 respectively, so that the first connecting member 4013 and the second connecting member 4014 move synchronously.

[0064] The second inner end surface of the first mounting groove 4011 also has a first notch, which coincides with the side wall of the first cover plate 401; the first connecting member 4013 also includes a first clamping portion 40133, one end of the first clamping portion 40133 is connected to the first slider 40132, and the other end of the first clamping portion 40133 extends from the first notch to the edge of the first cover plate 401, and extends from the side wall of the first cover plate 401 to protrude from the side wall of the first cover plate 401.

[0065] Similarly, the fourth inner end surface of the second mounting groove 4012 also has a second notch, which coincides with the side wall of the first cover plate 401; the second connecting member 4014 also includes a second clamping portion 40143, one end of the second clamping portion 40143 is connected to the second slider 40142, and the other end of the second clamping portion 40143 extends from the second notch to the edge of the first cover plate 401, and extends from the side wall of the first cover plate 401 to protrude from the side wall of the first cover plate 401.

[0066] The sizes and shapes of the first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 are adapted to the clamping grooves on the first maintenance port 103. The first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 extend from the side wall of the first cover plate 401 and are engaged in their respective clamping grooves, so that the first cover plate 401 can be detachably connected to the first maintenance port 103.

[0067] When the first cover plate 401 needs to be removed, the connecting rod 4015 is pulled to move the connecting rod 4015 in a direction away from the edge of the first cover plate 401. The connecting rod 4015 simultaneously pulls the first slider 40132 and the second slider 40142 to slide synchronously in the first mounting groove 4011 and the second mounting groove 4012 respectively. The first spring 40131 and the second spring 40141 elastically shrink, and the first slider 40132 and the second slider 40142 respectively pull the first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 to move the first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 away from the edge of the first cover plate 401, thereby releasing the connection between the first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 and their respective clamping grooves, so that the first cover plate 401 is removed and the first maintenance port 103 is exposed.

[0068] After the disassembly is completed, the interior of the server is maintained and inspected. After the maintenance is completed, the first cover plate 401 is aligned with the first maintenance opening 103, and the connecting rod 4015 is continued to be pulled to move the connecting rod 4015 in the direction away from the edge of the first cover plate 401, so that the first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 are both moved in the direction away from the edge of the first cover plate 401, and the first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 are retracted from the side wall of the first cover plate 401 to ensure that the first cover plate 401 can be placed in the first maintenance opening 103; at this time, the first spring 40131 and the second spring 40141 are elastically contracted. After the connecting rod 4015 is released, the first spring 40131 and the second spring 40141 are reset and rebounded, so that the first clamping portion 40133 and the second clamping portion 40143 extend from the side wall of the first cover plate 401 and continue to be connected to their respective clamping grooves, completing the installation of the first cover plate 401.

[0069] In the above embodiment of the present application, the ends of the first clamping portion 40133 and the end of the second clamping portion 40143 respectively have guiding slopes.

[0070] When maintenance is complete and the first cover plate 401 needs to be installed on the first maintenance opening 103, the first cover plate 401 is first aligned with the first maintenance opening 103 so that the guiding slope abuts against the edge of the first maintenance opening 103. Then, the first cover plate 401 is pressed so that the first engaging portion 40133 and the second engaging portion 40143 are squeezed and retracted from the side wall of the first cover plate 401. This makes assembly of the first cover plate 401 more convenient.

[0071] In the above embodiment of the present application, at least one handle groove 4016 is provided at intervals on the upper surface of the first cover plate 401 , which facilitates operation and maintenance personnel to take the first cover plate 401 when disassembling and installing the first cover plate 401 .

[0072] Among them, two handle grooves 4016 are provided on the upper surface of the first cover plate 401, and the two handle grooves 4016 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the shell 100. The groove width of the two handle grooves 4016 enables them to accommodate two fingers of the operation and maintenance personnel respectively, making it convenient for the operation and maintenance personnel to take the first cover plate 401.

[0073] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application, the first mounting groove 4011 and the second mounting groove 4012 can each include two to form two groups of mounting grooves, and the two groups of mounting grooves can be arranged opposite to each other along the width direction of the shell 100, and each group of mounting grooves is close to the edge of the first cover plate 401; that is, the four corners of the rectangular first cover plate 401 are provided with mounting grooves, and each mounting groove is provided with a clamping portion that can be adapted to the clamping groove of the first maintenance port 103, and the four clamping portions are embedded in the clamping groove of the first maintenance port 103, so as to improve the installation stability of the first cover plate 401.

[0074] It should be noted that the first cover plate 401 and the second cover plate 402 have the same structure and shape.

[0075] refer to Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present application, the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 includes a first electric push rod and at least one first heat dissipation element 202 connected to the end of the first electric push rod. The control module is electrically connected to the first electric push rod. The control module is used to monitor the operating status of the first heat dissipation element 202. When an abnormal operation of the first heat dissipation element 202 is obtained, the first electric push rod will be controlled according to the abnormal operation data to drive the at least one first heat dissipation element 202 to slide out of the shell 100 from the first opening.

[0076] The second heat dissipation mechanism 300 includes a second electric push rod 301 and at least one second heat dissipation element 302 connected to the end of the second electric push rod 301. The control module is also electrically connected to the second electric push rod 301. The control module is used to control the second electric push rod 301 to drive at least one second heat dissipation element 302 to slide from the second opening into the heat dissipation mechanism accommodating cavity when at least one first heat dissipation element 202 slides out of the shell 100.

[0077] The shape and size of the second heat dissipation elements 302 are the same as those of the first heat dissipation elements 202 , so as to ensure that each second heat dissipation element 302 can smoothly replace a corresponding first heat dissipation element 202 .

[0078] The electric push rod has a simple structure and occupies a small area.

[0079] The first heat sink 202 and the second heat sink 302 can be fans. In this case, the abnormal operation data of the first heat sink 202 is the fan speed; that is, the control module can monitor the fan speed. When the speed is low or zero, it means that the fan is operating abnormally and needs to be replaced or repaired.

[0080] The first electric push rod may include a first motor and a first screw rod connected to the output shaft of the first motor. The control module is electrically connected to the first motor, and at least one first heat sink 202 is connected to the output end of the first screw rod; the control module is used to control the first motor to turn on or off so that the first motor drives the first screw rod to rotate. When the first screw rod rotates, the at least one first heat sink 202 will move on the first screw rod along the axis of the first screw rod, so that the at least one first heat sink 202 moves out of the shell 100 from the first opening.

[0081] The second electric push rod 301 may include a second motor and a second screw rod connected to the output shaft of the second motor. The control module is electrically connected to the second motor, and at least one second heat sink 302 is connected to the output end of the second screw rod; the control module is used to control the second motor to turn on or off so that the second motor drives the second screw rod to rotate. When the second screw rod rotates, the at least one second heat sink 302 will move on the second screw rod along the axis of the second screw rod, so that the at least one second heat sink 302 moves from the second opening into the housing 100.

[0082] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application, since the first opening is arranged on the side outer wall 102 of the shell 100, the second opening is arranged on the top outer wall 101 of the shell 100, and the second heat dissipation mechanism 300 is located directly above the second opening; the axis of the first screw rod and the axis of the second screw rod are perpendicular, the first screw rod is arranged horizontally, and the second screw rod is arranged vertically, so that at least one first heat dissipation element 202 can be moved out from the side outer wall 102 of the shell 100, and at least one second heat dissipation element 302 can be moved down from the top outer wall 101 of the shell 100 into the shell 100.

[0083] refer to Figure 5 In the above embodiment of the present application, the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 further includes: a support assembly 203, the bottom of the support assembly 203 is connected to the output end of the first electric push rod.

[0084] Among them, a connecting sleeve 2031 is provided at the bottom of the support component 203, and the connecting sleeve 2031 is connected to the output end of the first screw rod; when the first screw rod rotates, the connecting sleeve 2031 will move on the first screw rod along the axis of the first screw rod, thereby driving the support component 203 to move.

[0085] The support assembly 203 also includes at least one installation cavity 2032, the installation cavity 2032 has an installation opening, and at least one first heat dissipation member 202 is arranged in a corresponding installation cavity 2032 from the installation opening; wherein, the installation opening can be located at the top of the support assembly 203, that is, the first heat dissipation member 202 is arranged in the installation cavity 2032 from the installation opening from top to bottom.

[0086] The inner side wall 20322 of the mounting cavity 2032 is provided with a connecting groove 20323, the notch of the connecting groove 20323 faces the mounting cavity 2032, and the connecting groove 20323 has a first inner wall surface and a second inner wall surface relative to each other in the vertical direction. The first inner wall surface coincides with the mounting opening, and the second inner wall surface coincides with the inner bottom wall 20324 of the mounting cavity 2032, that is, the inner bottom wall 20324 is flush with the second inner wall surface.

[0087] A connecting protrusion 2022 that is adapted to the shape and size of the connecting groove 20323 is provided on the side outer wall 2021 of the first heat dissipation element 202. When the first heat dissipation element 202 is arranged in the installation cavity 2032 from the installation port from top to bottom, the connecting protrusion 2022 is embedded in the connecting groove 20323 from the first inner wall surface to improve the connection strength of the first heat dissipation element 202 in the installation cavity 2032.

[0088] Among them, the two opposite inner walls 20322 of the installation cavity 2032 are both provided with connecting grooves 20323. At the same time, the two opposite side outer walls 2021 of the first heat dissipation element 202 are both provided with connecting protrusions 2022, which improve the connection strength of the first heat dissipation element 202 in the installation cavity 2032 while improving its connection stability.

[0089] It should be noted that the bottom outer wall of the first heat sink 202 abuts against the inner bottom wall 20324 of the mounting cavity 2032, and the horizontal plane where the top outer wall of the first heat sink 202 is located is lower than the horizontal plane where the mounting port is located; this prevents the first heat sink 202 from protruding from the mounting cavity 2032, and ensures that the support assembly 203 can smoothly drive the first heat sink 202 out of the shell 100.

[0090] The connecting protrusion 2022 has two opposite end faces in the vertical direction, which are respectively flush with the top outer wall and the bottom outer wall of the first heat dissipation element 202, ensuring the contact area between the connecting protrusion 2022 and the connecting groove 20323, and further improving the connection strength of the first heat dissipation element 202 in the installation cavity 2032.

[0091] refer to Figure 5 In the above embodiment of the present application, the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 further includes: a connecting screw 204 .

[0092] A connecting through hole is provided on the connecting protrusion 2022, the central axis of the connecting through hole is parallel to the vertical direction, the connecting screw 204 is rotatably connected in the connecting through hole, and the first end 2041 and the second end 2042 of the connecting screw 204 along its axis extend out of the connecting through hole respectively.

[0093] A connecting screw hole 20325 is provided on the inner bottom wall 20324 of the installation cavity 2032 at a position overlapping with the second inner wall surface. The first end 2041 is fixedly connected to the connecting screw hole 20325, and the second end 2042 is exposed at the installation opening.

[0094] When the first heat sink 202 moves down from the mounting opening to the mounting cavity 2032, and the connecting protrusion 2022 is engaged in the connecting groove 20323, the first end 2041 of the connecting screw 204 will also move down to the connecting screw hole 20325; by rotating the second end 2042 exposed at the mounting opening, the first end 2041 is fixedly connected to the connecting screw hole 20325, further improving the connection strength of the first heat sink 202 in the mounting cavity 2032.

[0095] It should be noted that the horizontal plane where the second end 2042 exposed at the installation port is located is lower than the horizontal plane where the installation port is located; this prevents the connecting screw 204 from protruding from the installation cavity 2032, ensuring that the support assembly 203 can smoothly drive the first heat dissipation component 202 to move out of the shell 100.

[0096] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the above embodiment of the present application, the first heat dissipation mechanism 200 further includes: a positioning component 205 that can be elastically extended.

[0097] The positioning assembly 205 is connected to the first end 2041 of the connecting screw 204. When the first heat dissipation member 202 moves down from the mounting opening 20321 to the mounting cavity 2032, and the connecting protrusion 2022 is engaged in the connecting groove 20323, the first end 2041 of the connecting screw 204 gradually moves down to the connecting screw hole 20325. At this time, the positioning assembly 205 first extends into the connecting screw hole 20325 to position and guide the assembly of the first end 2041, ensuring that the first end 2041 can be aligned with the connecting screw hole 20325, making assembly more convenient and quick.

[0098] The positioning component 205 can also elastically expand and contract along the axis of the connecting screw 204. When the first end 2041 is fixedly connected to the connecting screw hole 20325, the positioning component 205 is set in the connecting screw hole 20325, and the positioning component 205 abuts against the inner bottom surface of the connecting screw hole 20325 and elastically contracts; when the first end 2041 is away from the connecting screw hole 20325, the positioning component 205 loses the extrusion force and will elastically reset. The elastic reset of the positioning component 205 can remind the operation and maintenance personnel that the first end 2041 has been disconnected from the connecting screw hole 20325, and there is no need to continue to rotate the connecting screw 204.

[0099] The diameter of the positioning component 205 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting screw 204 .

[0100] In the above embodiment of the present application, the positioning assembly 205 includes: a positioning sleeve 2051 , a compression spring, an extension rod 2052 and a positioning plate 2053 .

[0101] One end of the positioning sleeve 2051 is connected to the first end 2041 of the connecting screw 204, and the other end of the positioning sleeve 2051 has a barrel mouth; a compression spring is arranged in the positioning sleeve 2051, and the compression spring elastically expands and contracts along the axis of the connecting screw 204; one end of the extension rod 2052 extends from the barrel mouth into the positioning sleeve 2051 and is connected to the compression spring, and the other end of the extension rod 2052 extends from the barrel mouth out of the positioning sleeve 2051 and is connected to the positioning plate 2053.

[0102] When the first end 2041 is fixedly connected to the connecting screw hole 20325, the positioning plate 2053 abuts against the inner bottom surface of the connecting screw hole 20325 and the compression spring elastically contracts, and the other end of the extension rod 2052 will extend from the barrel into the positioning sleeve 2051; when the first end 2041 is away from the connecting screw hole 20325, the positioning plate 2053 will be away from the inner bottom surface of the connecting screw hole 20325, and the compression spring will lose the extrusion force and will elastically reset, and the compression spring will rebound.

[0103] When the first end 2041 is fixedly connected to the connecting screw hole 20325, the compression spring and the extension rod 2052 are squeezed into the positioning sleeve 2051, reducing the occupied area of the positioning component 205 in the connecting screw hole 20325 and ensuring the installation stability of the first end 2041 and the connecting screw hole 20325.

[0104] The diameter of the positioning plate 2053 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the positioning sleeve 2051 . When the extension rod 2052 is fully inserted into the positioning sleeve 2051 , the positioning plate 2053 abuts against the opening of the positioning sleeve 2051 .

[0105] In one embodiment of the present application, a lifting handle 2023 is further provided on the top outer wall of the first heat dissipation element 202 to facilitate operation and maintenance personnel to take it when disassembling and installing the first heat dissipation element 202.

[0109] The two first heat dissipation mechanisms 200 dissipate heat for the server at the same time, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the server. In addition, if one of the first heat dissipation mechanisms 200 fails, the other first heat dissipation mechanism 200 can continue to dissipate heat for the server.

[0110] It should be noted that the control module monitors the operating status of the two first heat dissipation mechanisms 200 in real time and controls the movement of the two first heat dissipation mechanisms 200 in a step-by-step manner. In other words, if the control module detects that one of the first heat dissipation mechanisms 200 is operating abnormally while the other is operating normally, only the abnormal first heat dissipation mechanism 200 is controlled to move out of the housing 100 through the first opening, ensuring that the normally operating first heat dissipation mechanism 200 continues to operate.

[0115] In the above embodiment of the present application, at least one second heat dissipation element 302 is disposed in the mounting assembly 304 .

[0116] It should be noted that the assembly structure and assembly method of the second heat dissipation element 302 and the mounting assembly 304 are the same as the assembly structure and assembly method of the first heat dissipation element 202 and the supporting assembly 203, and will not be repeated here.

When the mounting assembly 304 moves downward with the second heat sink 302, the protective shell 303 is prevented from shaking, thereby ensuring that the second heat sink 302 is accurately moved down to the preset position.

[0118] In the above embodiment of the present application, a fixing plate 3033 is also provided at the top of the protective shell 303, and the fixing plate 3033 includes a vertical plate, one end of the vertical plate is fixedly connected to the top of the protective shell 303, and the other end of the vertical plate is vertically connected to the horizontal plate, the second electric push rod 301 is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate, and the output end of the second electric push rod 301 extends toward the top of the protective shell 303 and is connected to the extension protrusion 3041.
