Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of server hard disk cooling, and in particular to a server hard disk hot-swap device and a server. Background Art

[0002] In the server technology field, hot swapping allows users to insert or remove components without shutting down the system or disconnecting the power cord, thereby connecting or disconnecting the component from the system. For example, hot swapping a hard drive during the operation of a server test system.

[0003] During the hot-swap test of a hard drive, the server test system remains on, generating heat for the hard drive. However, in related art, the hard drive is not cooled during the hot-swap test, which can easily lead to damage due to overheating during the hot-swap test.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a server hard disk hot-swap device to dissipate heat from the hard disk during a hot-swap test of the hard disk is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present application provides a server hard disk hot-swap device and a server, so as to at least solve the problem in the related art that the hard disk is damaged due to overheating during the hot-swap test process.

[0006] The present application provides a server hard disk hot-swap device, comprising:

[0007] A test box is provided with a test slot and an insertion port, the insertion port is used for allowing a hard disk to enter and exit the test slot along a first direction, the test box is provided with a cooling tank, and the test slot has cooling tanks on both sides along a second direction, and the two sides of the test slot are connected to the cooling tanks on the corresponding sides;

[0008] A cooling box is provided at the top of the test box along the third direction, corresponding to each test slot one by one, and the cooling box is provided with a pre-cooling slot correspondingly connected to the cooling slot, and the pre-cooling slot is connected to a cooling device for cooling the pre-cooling slot;

[0009] The cooling plate is movably arranged between the cooling box and the test box along a third direction so as to switch its position between the pre-cooling tank and the cooling tank.

[0010] The present application also provides a server, comprising the above-mentioned server hard disk hot-swap device.

[0011] According to the present invention, a cooling box is provided at the top of the test box along the third direction, and the cooling box is provided with pre-cooling slots corresponding to the cooling slots on both sides of the test slot along the second direction, and the pre-cooling slots are connected to a cooling device. The cooling device can be used to cool the pre-cooling slots of the cooling box, thereby cooling the cooling plate located in the pre-cooling slots. After the cooled cooling plate enters the cooling slot of the test box from the pre-cooling slot, it can cool the hard disk in the test slot. After the high temperature of the hard disk is transferred to the cooling plate, causing the temperature of the cooling plate to increase, the increased temperature of the cooling plate can enter the pre-cooling slot from the cooling slot for cooling. In this cycle, the cooling plate is used to cool the hard disk, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the hard disk during the hot-swap test. Therefore, the technical problem of hard disk damage due to overheating during the hot-swap test can be solved, and the technical effect of preventing hard disk damage due to overheating during the hot-swap test can be achieved.

[0027] 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.

[0028] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first direction refers to the plug-in and unplug direction of the hard disk, the second direction refers to the width direction of the hard disk, and the third direction refers to the height direction of the hard disk, that is, the first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the first direction is the X-axis direction, the second direction is the Y-axis direction, and the third direction is the Z-axis direction.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4, an embodiment of the present invention provides a server hard disk hot-swap device, including a test box 1, a cooling box 2, a cooling device and a cooling plate 3, the test box 1 is provided with a test slot 11 and a plug-in inlet 12, the plug-in inlet 12 is used for allowing the hard disk 9 to enter and exit the test slot 11 along a first direction, the test box 1 is provided with a cooling slot 13, the test slot 11 has cooling slots 13 on both sides along the second direction, and the two sides of the test slot 11 are connected to the cooling slots 13 on the corresponding sides; the cooling box 2 is arranged at the top of the test box 1 along the third direction, the cooling box 2 corresponds to the test slot 11 one by one, the cooling box 2 is provided with a pre-cooling slot 21 corresponding to the cooling slot 13, the pre-cooling slot 21 is connected to the cooling device, and the cooling device is used to cool the pre-cooling slot 21; the cooling plate 3 can be movably arranged between the cooling box 2 and the test box 1 along the third direction to switch positions between the pre-cooling slot 21 and the cooling slot 13.

[0030] That is to say, this embodiment adds a cooling box 2, a cooling plate 3 and a cooling device, and uses the cooling device to cool the pre-cooling tank 21 of the cooling box 2, thereby cooling the cooling plate 3 located in the pre-cooling tank 21. After the cooling, the cooling plate 3 enters the cooling tank 13 of the test box 1 from the pre-cooling tank 21. Since the cooling tank 13 is located on both sides of the test tank 11 and is correspondingly connected to the two sides of the test tank 11, the cooling plate 3 in the cooling tank 13 can cool the hard disk 9 in the test tank 11. After the high temperature of the hard disk 9 is transferred to the cooling plate 3 to increase the temperature of the cooling plate 3, the cooling plate 3 with increased temperature can enter the pre-cooling tank 21 from the cooling tank 13 to cool down. This cycle is repeated, and the cooling plate 3 is used to cool the hard disk 9, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the hard disk 9 during the hot-swap test of the hard disk 9, thereby preventing the hard disk 9 from being damaged due to overheating during the hot-swap test.

[0031] Furthermore, in order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the hard disk 9, as Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a retractable pleated plate 4 is provided in the pre-cooling tank 21, and the pleated plate 4 divides the pre-cooling tank 21 into a cooling space 211 and a heat preservation space 212 along the second direction. The heat preservation space 212 is closer to the test tank 11 than the cooling space 211, and the cooling space 211 is connected to the cooling device; the cooling box 2 is provided with a movable first baffle 22 and a movable second baffle 23, the first baffle 22 is used to block or make way for the first connection between the heat preservation space 212 and the cooling tank 13; the second baffle 23 is used to block or make way for The second connection point between the cooling space 211 and the cooling tank 13; two cooling plates 3 are provided between the pre-cooling tank 21 and the corresponding cooling tank 13, and the width of the cooling tank 13 along the second direction is greater than or equal to the sum of the thicknesses of the two cooling plates 3. The cooling plates 3 can enter the insulation space 212 from the cooling space 211, and can enter the position of the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13 from the position of the insulation space 212 of the cooling tank 13, so that the two cooling plates 3 on one side of the test tank 11 along the second direction alternately enter the cooling tank 13 and are alternately cooled.

[0032] It can be understood that a test box 1 can be provided with at least one test slot 11, and a cooling box 2 is provided at the position of the test box 1 corresponding to a single test slot 11, that is, the number of cooling boxes 2 is the same as the number of test slots 11 and the cooling boxes 2 correspond to the test slots 11 one-to-one; a test slot 11 is provided with a cooling slot 13 on both sides along the second direction, and the cooling box 2 is provided with a pre-cooling slot 21 on both sides along the second direction. In this embodiment, two cooling plates 3 are provided between the pre-cooling slot 21 and the corresponding cooling slot 13, that is, four cooling plates 3 are provided in a single cooling box 2, and the hard disk 9 in the test slot 11 has two cooling plates 3 on each side along the second direction. The two cooling plates 3 on the same side can alternately enter the cooling slot 13 to use the two cooling plates 3 to alternately dissipate heat for the hard disk 9 in the test slot 11. At the same time, in this embodiment, the pre-cooling slot 21 of the cooling box 2 is divided into an insulation space 212 and a cooling space 211. With the two cooling plates 3, one cooling plate 3 can be used to While the hard disk 9 is dissipating heat, the other cooling plate 3 is cooled in the cooling space 211. After the cooling plate 3 is cooled in the cooling space 211, it can be transferred to the insulation space 212 to wait for the next time to enter the cooling tank 13 to cool the hard disk 9; after the temperature of the cooling plate 3 that cools the hard disk 9 rises, it can be transferred to the cooling space 211 for cooling. In this way, by using the two cooling plates 3 to work alternately, continuous heat dissipation and cooling of the hard disk 9 can be achieved, and the hard disk 9 can be plugged in and out without waiting for the cooling time of the cooling plate 3, ensuring effective cooling of the hard disk 9 during continuous plugging and unplugging tests.

[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, when the pleated panels 4 are unfolded, the pre-cooling tank 21 is divided into a cooling space 211 and a heat-insulating space 212, which are isolated from each other. This allows the cooling device to more quickly cool the cooling plates 3 within the cooling space 211, thereby increasing the cooling speed and reducing energy consumption. When the pleated panels 4 are collapsed, the transfer of the cooling plates 3 from the cooling space 211 to the heat-insulating space 212 is not affected.

[0034] It can be understood that the cooling plate 3 can enter the insulation space 212 from the cooling space 211, and can enter the position of the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13 from the position of the insulation space 212 of the cooling tank 13. Combined with the cooling plate 3, it can switch positions between the pre-cooling tank 21 and the cooling tank 13. Through the movement of the cooling plate 3, the alternating cooling of the two cooling plates 3 and the alternating heat dissipation and cooling of the hard disk 9 can be achieved.

[0035] Specifically, during operation, the first baffle 22 is moved to a position that clears the first connection point between the heat preservation space 212 and the cooling tank 13. At this time, the cooling plate 3 can enter the cooling tank 13 from the heat preservation space 212 to dissipate heat and cool the hard disk 9 in the test slot 11; at the same time, the cooling device can cool the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211. When the temperature of the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211 reaches a certain temperature value, the pleated plate 4 can be folded and the first baffle 22 can be moved to a position that blocks the first connection point. At this time, the heat preservation space 212 is connected to the cooling space 211, and the heat preservation space 212 is closed, so the cooling plate 3 can enter the heat preservation space 212 from the cooling space 211 to wait for entering the cooling tank 13.

[0036] When the cooling plate 3 in the cooling tank 13 dissipates heat and cools the hard disk 9, the heat of the hard disk 9 is transferred to the cooling plate 3. When the temperature of the cooling plate 3 in the cooling tank 13 rises to a certain temperature value, the cooling plate 3 can no longer dissipate heat and cool the hard disk 9. At this time, the cooling plate 3 in the cooling tank 13 can be moved from the position corresponding to the insulation space 212 along the second direction to the position corresponding to the cooling space 211. Then, the cooling plate 3 after the temperature rises can be moved from the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13 along the third direction to the cooling space 211. It can be understood that at this time, the second baffle 23 can be moved to a position to clear the second connection between the cooling space 211 and the cooling tank 13, so that the cooling plate 3 can enter the cooling space 211 through the second connection. After the cooling plate 3 enters the cooling space 211, the second baffle 23 moves to a position to cover the second connection, closing the cooling space 211. At this time, the cooling device can be used to cool the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211.

[0037] When the temperature rises, the cooling plate 3 moves from the position of the insulation space 212 corresponding to the cooling tank 13 along the second direction to the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling tank 13, the first baffle 22 can be moved to the position of the first connection point between the insulation space 212 and the cooling tank 13, so that the cooling plate 3 in the insulation space 212 can enter the cooling tank 13 again from the insulation space 212 to dissipate heat and cool the hard disk 9. This cycle allows the hard disk 9 to be plugged in and out without waiting for the cooling time of the cooling plate 3, thereby ensuring effective cooling for continuous plugging and unplugging tests.

[0038] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific implementation method of the cooling plate 3 entering the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling tank 13 from the position of the insulation space 212 corresponding to the cooling tank 13, as long as the cooling plate 3 can enter the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling tank 13 from the position of the insulation space 212 corresponding to the cooling tank 13.

[0039] like Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, the test box 1 is provided with a first driving device 5 at the top and bottom along the third direction, respectively, and the first driving device 5 is used to drive the cooling plate 3 to move from the position of the cooling tank 13 corresponding to the insulation space 212 to the position of the cooling tank 13 corresponding to the cooling space 211.

[0040] The first driving device 5 includes a first slider 51 and a first driving member 52. The first slider 51 can be slidably provided on the test box 1 along the second direction, and is used to abut the cooling plate 3 at the position of the insulation space 212 of the cooling tank 13; the first driving member 52 is connected to the first slider 51. The first driving member 52 is used to push the first slider 51 to slide along the second direction when moving toward the first orientation, so that the first slider 51 pushes the cooling plate 3 from the position of the insulation space 212 of the cooling tank 13 to the position of the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13.

[0041] That is, in this embodiment, the first driving member 52 moves toward the first direction, driving the first slider 51 to slide along the second direction, thereby causing the first slider 51 to push the cooling plate 3 to move, thereby moving the cooling plate 3 from the position corresponding to the insulation space 212 of the cooling tank 13 to the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13; after the cooling plate 3 moves from the position corresponding to the insulation space 212 of the cooling tank 13 to the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13, the first driving member 52 can be moved toward the second direction to reset the first slider 51 to avoid the next cooling plate 3 entering the cooling tank 13 from the insulation space 212. This driving method is simple and easy to implement. It should be noted that in this embodiment of the present invention, the first direction and the second direction are two directions of movement of the first driving member 52, and the two directions are two opposite directions. For example, when the first driving member 52 is a motor, the first direction and the second direction represent the forward and reverse directions of the motor, respectively.

[0042] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific number of first drive devices 5, as long as the first slider 51 can stably push the cooling plate 3 to move. For example, one first drive device 5 is provided at the top of the test box 1 along the third direction, and the top first drive device 5 is located in the middle of the test box 1 along the first direction; two first drive devices 5 are provided at the bottom of the test box 1 along the third direction, and the two bottom first drive devices 5 are located on either side of the test box 1 along the first direction. The three first drive devices 5 form a triangular driving point to stably push the cooling plate 3 to move.

[0043] In order to facilitate the setting of the first drive device 5, please combine Figure 2 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the test box 1 is provided with mounting grooves 18 at the top and bottom along the third direction, respectively, and the first drive device 5 is installed in the corresponding mounting grooves 18. Furthermore, considering the stability of the movement of the first slider 51, in some embodiments, the first slider 51 is provided with a first limiting portion, and the inner groove wall of the mounting groove 18 is provided with a first limiting groove. The first limiting portion slidably cooperates with the first limiting groove to limit the movement of the first slider 51 and ensure the smooth movement of the first slider 51.

[0044] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the movement of the first baffle 22 from the position of blocking the first connection to the position of clearing the first connection, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the first driving device 5 at the top of the test box 1 along the third direction further includes an auxiliary plate 53 and a swinging plate 54, the auxiliary plate 53 is connected to the first slider 51; the swinging plate 54 is rotatably provided on the cooling box 2, one end of the swinging plate 54 abuts against the side of the auxiliary plate 53 away from the cooling groove 13, and the other end of the swinging plate 54 abuts against the first baffle 22, and the first baffle 22 is slidably provided on the cooling box 2 along the second direction; when the first driving member 52 moves toward the second direction, it drives the first slider 51 to drive the auxiliary plate 53 to push the swinging plate 54 to rotate, so that the swinging plate 54 pushes the first baffle 22 to move from a position blocking the first connecting point to a position clearing the first connecting point.

[0045] That is, in this embodiment, the first drive member 5, located along the third direction at the top of the test chamber 1, is used not only to drive the cooling plate 3 but also to drive the first baffle 22. When the first drive member 52 moves toward the second orientation, it drives the first slider 51 and the auxiliary plate 53 together in a direction away from the cooling tank 13, causing the auxiliary plate 53 to exert a thrust on one end of the swing plate 54, thereby causing the swing plate 54 to rotate relative to the cooling chamber 2. The other end of the swing plate 54 pushes the first baffle 22 in the second direction, causing the first baffle 22 to move from a position blocking the first connection to a position clearing the first connection, thereby allowing the cooling plate 3 within the insulation space 212 to enter the cooling tank 13. This solution can save power and reduce costs while also contributing to a compact structure.

[0046] To facilitate the passage of the cooling plate 3 from the heat-insulating space 212 into the cooling tank 13, in some embodiments, the third direction is vertical. When the first baffle 22 clears the first connection, the cooling plate 3 automatically flows from the heat-insulating space 212 through the first connection into the cooling tank 13 under the action of gravity. This solution is simple and easy to implement. Alternatively, a driving device can be used to drive the cooling plate 3 from the heat-insulating space 212 into the cooling tank 13, but this will not be discussed further here.

[0047] To facilitate the installation of the swing plate 54, in some embodiments, the bottom of the cooling box 2 is provided with an auxiliary groove connected to the mounting groove 18. The swing plate 54 is rotatably mounted in the auxiliary groove via a rotating shaft. The first baffle 22 is provided with a slot for inserting one end of the swing plate 54. The other end of the swing plate 54 abuts against the side of the auxiliary plate 53 away from the corresponding cooling groove 13. The auxiliary groove serves to accommodate the swing plate 54, and the slot facilitates the swing plate 54 to drive the movement of the first baffle 22.

[0048] In addition, it can be understood that when the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211 enters the insulation space 212, the first baffle 22 needs to block the first connection. In order to facilitate the movement of the first baffle 22 to the position of blocking the first connection, in some embodiments, the swing plate 54 is used to be provided with an iron sheet 55 at one end abutting against the first baffle 22, and the cooling box 2 is provided with an electromagnet 56. When the first baffle 22 moves to a position to clear the first connection, the iron sheet 55 contacts the electromagnet 56, and the electromagnet 56 is energized to adsorb the iron sheet 55; when the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211 needs to move to the insulation space 212, the electromagnet 56 is powered off; a first elastic member 57 is provided between the swing plate 54 and the cooling box 2, and the first elastic member 57 is used to provide elastic force to the swing plate 54 after the electromagnet 56 is powered off, so that the swing plate 54 pushes the first baffle 22 to block the first connection.

[0049] That is, in this embodiment, when the first baffle 22 moves to a position clearing the first connection, the electromagnet 56 attracts the iron sheet 55, maintaining the position of the swing plate 54 unchanged, thereby maintaining the position of the first baffle 22 clearing the first connection unchanged, thereby preventing the first baffle 22 from affecting the cooling plate 3 from entering the cooling tank 13 from the heat preservation space 212. When the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211 needs to move to the heat preservation space 212, the electromagnet 56 is de-energized, eliminating the magnetic attraction of the electromagnet 56 on the iron sheet 55. At this time, the swing plate 54 swings under the elastic force of the first elastic member 57, thereby causing the swing plate 54 to move the first baffle 22 from the position clearing the first connection to the position blocking the first connection, and the elastic force of the first elastic member 57 is used to keep the first baffle 22 in the position blocking the first connection. It is understandable that when the swing plate 54 drives the first baffle 22 to move from the position of clearing the first connection to the position of blocking the first connection, the auxiliary plate 53 has been reset to prevent the auxiliary plate 53 from abutting against the swing plate 54 and affecting the movement of the swing plate 54.

[0050] To facilitate the placement of the first elastic member 57, in some embodiments, the first elastic member 57 is disposed within the auxiliary groove described above. One end of the first elastic member 57 is secured to the inner wall of the auxiliary groove, and the other end is connected to the end of the swing plate 54 proximal to the first baffle 22. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the electromagnet 56 is secured to the wall of the auxiliary groove, and the electromagnet 56 is energized and de-energized by a control device. For example, when the iron sheet 55 contacts and collides with the electromagnet 56, the control device energizes the electromagnet 56; when the temperature within the cooling space 211 reaches a second predetermined value, the control device de-energizes the electromagnet 56, and so on.

[0051] In addition, in order to save power, facilitate setting, and make the structure compact, in some embodiments, a single first driving device 5 includes at least a pair of first sliders 51, and the paired first sliders 51 are respectively used to abut against the cooling plates 3 on both sides of the test slot 11 along the second direction; the first driving member 52 is used to drive the paired first sliders 51 to move synchronously.

[0052] That is to say, in this embodiment, when the first driving member 52 of the first driving device 5 is actuated, the two paired first sliders 51 are driven to move synchronously, so that the two paired first sliders 51 respectively push the cooling plates 3 on both sides of the test slot 11 along the second direction to move simultaneously, thereby achieving the effect that the cooling plates 3 on both sides of the test slot 11 along the second direction move simultaneously under the same first driving member 52. Therefore, power sources can be saved, costs can be reduced, and at the same time, the structure can be made compact and easy to control.

[0053] It should be noted that the above embodiments do not limit the specific structure and driving method of the first driving member 52. It is sufficient that the first driving member 52 can drive the first slider 51 to move in the second direction. For example, the first driving member 52 includes a first micromotor and a bidirectional lead screw connected to the first micromotor, and the two paired first sliders 51 are respectively threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw. That is, when the first micromotor rotates, it drives the bidirectional lead screw to rotate, which in turn, through thread transmission, causes the first slider 51 to slide in the second direction.

[0054] In addition, it should be noted that the above embodiments do not limit the specific implementation method of the cooling plate 3 entering the insulation space 212 from the cooling space 211, as long as the cooling plate 3 can enter the insulation space 212 from the cooling space 211.

[0055] like Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the cooling box 2 is provided with a second driving device 6, which is used to drive the cooling plate 3 from the cooling space 211 into the heat preservation space 212. The second driving device 6 includes a first rack 61, a second rack 62, a gear 63, and a second driving member 64. The first rack 61 is movably provided in the cooling box 2 along the second direction and is used to abut against the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211; the second rack 62 is movably provided in the cooling box 2 along the first direction; the gear 63 is respectively engaged with the first rack 61 and the second rack 62 for transmission; and the second driving member 64 is connected to the second rack 62 and is used to drive the second rack 62 to move along the first direction, so that the first rack 61 pushes the cooling plate 3 from the cooling space 211 into the heat preservation space 212.

[0056] That is, in this embodiment, the second drive member 64 provides a driving source, causing the second drive member 64 to drive the second rack 62 to move in the first reverse direction. Furthermore, through the meshing transmission between the second rack 62 and the gear 63, and the meshing transmission between the gear 63 and the first rack 61, the first rack 61 pushes the cooling plate 3 from the cooling space 211 into the heat-insulating space 212. It is understood that the first rack 61 and the second rack 62 have different movement directions. In this embodiment, the gear 63 meshes with the first rack 61 and the second rack 62, respectively, to achieve the reversal of the movement of the first rack 61 relative to the second rack 62. The teeth of the gear 63 are arranged so long as they can achieve the reversal of the movement of the first rack 61 and the second rack 62. It is understood that the first rack 61 and the second rack 62 are offset along the axial direction of the gear 63 to achieve the meshing transmission between the first rack 61 and the gear 63, and the second rack 62 and the gear 63, respectively. This structural form makes the structure compact and helps to reduce the structural space occupied by the second drive device 6 as a whole along the second direction. In addition, it can be understood that after the cooling plate 3 enters the heat preservation space 212 from the cooling space 211, the second driving member 64 can move in the reverse direction to reset the second rack 62, the gear 63 and the first rack 61.

[0057] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific number and location of the second drive devices 6, as long as the second drive devices 6 can drive the cooling plate 3 from the cooling space 211 into the heat-insulating space 212. For example, there is one second drive device 6, and the first rack 61 abuts against the center of the side of the cooling plate 3 away from the heat-insulating space 212. That is, when the second drive member 64 is actuated, the first rack 61 pushes the cooling plate 3 away from the center of the side of the heat-insulating space 212, moving the cooling plate 3 from the cooling space 211 to the heat-insulating space 212. This reduces the number of second drive devices 6 and results in a simple and compact overall structure.

[0058] To facilitate the installation of the second drive device 6, in some embodiments, a translation slot is provided within the cooling box 2, and the second drive device 6 is disposed within the translation slot. In other words, the translation slot serves to accommodate the second drive device 6. Furthermore, to ensure the smooth movement of the first rack 61, the first rack 61 is illustratively provided with a second stopper, and the inner wall of the translation slot is provided with a second stopper that slidably engages with the second stopper, thereby guiding the movement of the first rack 61. Simultaneously, the second rack 62 is provided with a third stopper, and the inner wall of the translation slot is provided with a third stopper that slidably engages with the third stopper, thereby guiding the movement of the second rack 62. Furthermore, a shielding plate may be provided at the translation slot to seal the translation slot.

[0059] In addition, this embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the second driving member 64. For example, the second driving member 64 is a micro cylinder, and the piston rod of the micro cylinder is connected to the second rack 62 to push the second rack 62 to move through the micro cylinder.

[0060] In addition, it should be noted that the above embodiment does not limit the specific implementation method of moving the cooling plate 3 from the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211, as long as the cooling plate 3 can be moved from the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211.

[0061] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the cooling plate 3 is provided with a contact block 31 ; the cooling box 2 is provided with a third driving device, which is used to drive the cooling plate 3 to move from the position of the cooling tank 13 corresponding to the cooling space 211 to the cooling space 211 .

[0062] The third driving device includes a second slider 71 and a third driving member 72. The second slider 71 is movably disposed in the cooling box 2 along a third direction. The second slider 71 has a first position. When the second slider 71 is in the first position, it aligns with the bottom side of the contact block 31 of the cooling plate 3 located at a position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13. The third driving member 72 is connected to the second slider 71 and is used to drive the second slider 71 to push the contact block 31 to move along the third direction, thereby moving the cooling plate 3 from the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211. It will be understood that the second slider 71 also has a second position. When the second slider 71 is in the second position, the cooling plate 3 is located within the cooling space 211.

[0063] That is, in this embodiment, the third driving member 72 is used to provide a power source, and the third driving member 72 is used to drive the second slider 71 to move along the third direction, so that the second slider 71 pushes the cooling plate 3 from the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211 by pushing the contact block 31. It is understandable that before the cooling plate 3 moves from the position corresponding to the heat preservation space 212 of the cooling tank 13 to the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13, the second slider 71 of the third driving device needs to be moved to the first position in advance to ensure that when the cooling plate 3 moves from the position corresponding to the heat preservation space 212 of the cooling tank 13 to the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13, the contact block 31 of the cooling plate 3 is located above the second slider 71, thereby ensuring that the second slider 71 can push the cooling plate 3 from the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 of the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211.

[0064] It should be noted that this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on the specific number or location of the third drive devices, as long as the third drive devices can stably propel the cooling plate 3 from the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 in the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211. For example, there are two third drive devices, one located on either side of the cooling space 211 along the first direction. Correspondingly, contact blocks 31 are provided on either side of the cooling plate 3 along the first direction.

[0065] To facilitate the installation of the third drive device, in some embodiments, the cooling box 2 is provided with a receiving slot on each side along the first direction, and the third drive device is disposed within the receiving slot, thereby accommodating the third drive device. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the receiving slot is provided corresponding to the pleated plate 4, and the length of the pleated plate 4 along the third direction can cover the receiving slot, thereby shielding the receiving slot with the pleated plate 4. In addition, to ensure the smooth movement of the second slider 71, in some embodiments, the second slider 71 is provided with a fourth limiter, and the inner wall of the receiving slot is provided with a fourth limiter that slidably cooperates with the fourth limiter, thereby limiting the movement direction of the second slider 71.

[0066] Furthermore, this embodiment does not limit the specific structure and driving method of the second driving member 64; as long as the second driving member 64 can drive the second slider 71 to move in the third direction, it is sufficient. For example, the second driving member 64 includes a second micromotor and a one-way screw connected to the second micromotor, and the second slider 71 is threadedly connected to the one-way screw. In other words, the rotation of the second micromotor drives the one-way screw, which in turn drives the second slider 71 to move in the third direction. This motion structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0067] In addition, the above embodiment does not limit the specific implementation method of the second baffle 23 making way for and blocking the second connection point. As long as the second baffle 23 can make way for the second connection point when the cooling plate 3 needs to move from the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling trough 13 to the cooling space 211 and the second baffle 23 can block the second connection point when the cooling plate 3 is located in the cooling space 211, it can be sufficient.

[0068] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the second baffle 23 can be movably provided in the cooling box 2 along the second direction, and a second elastic member 73 is provided between the second baffle 23 and the cooling box 2, and the second elastic member 73 is used to provide an elastic force to the second baffle 23 to cover the second connection point; the second baffle 23 is provided with an inclined surface 231 on the side facing the first baffle 22, and the inclined surface 231 is used to make the second baffle 23 move away from the second connection point under the push of the cooling plate 3 when the cooling plate 3 moves from the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211.

[0069] That is, when the cooling plate 3 moves from the position corresponding to the cooling space 211 in the cooling tank 13 to the cooling space 211, the cooling plate 3 pushes against the inclined surface 231 of the second baffle 23. The component of the pushing force of the cooling plate 3 against the inclined surface 231 along the second direction drives the second baffle 23 to compress the second elastic member 73, causing the second baffle 23 to move from a position blocking the second connection to a position clearing the second connection, thereby allowing the cooling plate 3 to smoothly enter the cooling space 211. When the cooling plate 3 fully enters the cooling space 211, the second baffle 23 moves toward blocking the second connection under the elastic force of the second elastic member 73 and remains in the position blocking the second connection. This structure is simple and easy to implement, and can save the need for a dedicated drive device for driving the second baffle 23.

[0070] In order to ensure the movement stability of the second baffle 23, in some embodiments, the cooling box 2 is provided with a sliding groove for the second baffle 23 to slide into, and the second elastic member 73 is provided in the sliding groove.

[0071] In addition, if Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a fixed plate 24 is provided at the position of the cooling box 2 corresponding to the pleated plate 4, and a first baffle 22 and a second baffle 23 are respectively located on either side of the fixed plate 24. When the first baffle 22 blocks the first connection, the first baffle 22 abuts the fixed plate 24. When the second baffle 23 blocks the second connection, the second baffle 23 abuts the fixed plate 24. The provision of the fixed plate 24 improves the positional reliability of the first baffle 22 and the second baffle 23 when the first baffle 22 is at the first connection and the second baffle 23 is at the second connection, and helps to improve the sealing of the thermal insulation space 212 and the cooling space 211.

[0072] In addition, the above embodiments do not limit the specific extension and retraction method of the pleated panel 4, as long as the pleated panel 4 can be extended and retracted.

[0073] like Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the cooling box 2 is provided with a fourth driving device 8 at at least one end along the third direction, and the fourth driving device 8 is used to drive the pleated plate 4 to extend and retract; the fourth driving device 8 includes a first winding wheel 81, a second winding wheel 82, a traction rope 83, a first limiting plate 84, a second limiting plate 85, a fourth driving member 86 and a fifth driving member 87, and the first winding wheel 81 and the second winding wheel 82 are respectively provided on both sides of the pleated plate 4 along the first direction; the traction rope 83 is provided through each plate body of the pleated plate 4, and the two ends of the traction rope 83 are respectively wound around the first winding wheel 81 and the second winding wheel 82 for a preset number of turns; The first limiting plate 84 and the second limiting plate 85 are arranged at intervals, and the first limiting plate 84 and the second limiting plate 85 are respectively connected to the traction rope 83, and the plate body of the pleated plate 4 closest to the second winding wheel 82 is clamped between the first limiting plate 84 and the second limiting plate 85; the fourth driving member 86 is connected to the first winding wheel 81, and is used to drive the first winding wheel 81 to rotate so that the traction rope 83 is wound around the first winding wheel 81, so that the pleated plate 4 is contracted and folded; the fifth driving member 87 is connected to the second winding wheel 82, and is used to drive the second winding wheel 82 to rotate so that the traction rope 83 is wound around the second winding wheel 82, so that the pleated plate 4 is unfolded.

[0074] It is understood that when the cooling panel 3 needs to move from the cooling space 211 to the heat-insulating space 212, the pleated panel 4 needs to be retracted and folded. At this time, the fourth driving member 86 is activated, causing the fourth driving member 86 to rotate the first reel 81. At the same time, the fifth driving member 87 drives the second reel 82 to rotate, causing the traction rope 83 on the second reel 82 to unwind. During this process, the traction rope 83 is continuously reeled onto the first reel 81, and the traction rope 83 drives the first limiting plate 84 and the second limiting plate 85 to move toward the first reel 81. In turn, the first limiting plate 84 and the second limiting plate 85 drive the plate body of the pleated panel 4 sandwiched therebetween to move in the first direction toward the first reel 81, causing the pleated panel 4 to retract and fold. After the pleated panel 4 is retracted and folded, the cooling space 211 and the heat-insulating space 212 are connected, and the cooling panel 3 can now move from the cooling space 211 into the heat-insulating space 212.

[0075] When the cooling plate 3 needs to cool in the cooling space 211, the pleated plate 4 is unfolded to separate the heat preservation space 212 from the cooling space 211, thereby improving cooling efficiency and reducing energy consumption. At this time, the fifth driving member 87 is activated to rotate the second reel 82. Simultaneously, the fourth driving member 86 drives the first reel 81 to rotate, causing the traction rope 83 on the first reel 81 to unwind. During this process, the traction rope 83 is continuously wound around the second reel 82, and the traction rope 83 drives the first limiting plate 84 and the second limiting plate 85 to move toward the second reel 82. This in turn causes the first limiting plate 84 and the second limiting plate 85 to drive the plate body of the pleated plate 4 sandwiched between them to move in the first direction toward the second reel 82, causing the pleated plate 4 to unfold. After the pleated plate 4 is unfolded, it separates the heat preservation space 212 from the cooling space 211.

[0076] In addition, it can be understood that the fourth driving device 8 is arranged at the end of the cooling box 2 along the third direction, so that the traction rope 83 is located on the side of the cooling plate 3 along the third direction to avoid the traction rope 83 affecting the cooling plate 3 from entering the insulation space 212 from the cooling space 211.

[0077] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific structures and driving principles of the fourth driving member 86 and the fifth driving member 87. It is sufficient that the fourth driving member 86 can drive the first winding wheel 81 to rotate, and the fifth driving member 87 can drive the second winding wheel 82 to rotate. For example, the fourth driving member 86 is a third micromotor, and the fifth driving member 87 is a fourth micromotor.

[0078] In addition, considering the convenience of setting the fourth drive device 8, in some embodiments, a matching groove is provided in the cooling box 2, and the fourth drive device 8 is provided in the matching groove. A cover plate for closing the matching groove can be provided at the matching groove.

[0079] In addition, the above embodiments do not limit the specific structure of the cooling device and its cooling principle, as long as the cooling device can cool the cooling space 211.

[0080] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the cooling box 2 is provided with an air inlet 25 and an air exhaust hole 26 respectively connected to the cooling space 211, and the cooling device includes an air outlet end and an air inlet end, the air outlet end is connected to the air inlet 25, and the air inlet end is connected to the exhaust hole 26. The cooling device is used to supply cooling air into the cooling space 211 and realize cooling air circulation.

[0081] That is to say, in this embodiment, cooling air is delivered to the cooling space 211 through the circulation of the cooling device, so as to cool the cooling plate 3 in the cooling space 211. The cooling device can be a refrigeration equipment such as an air conditioner. The cooling air prepared by the cooling device comes out from the air outlet of the cooling device and enters the cooling space 211 through the air inlet 25 of the cooling space 211. After the cooling air fills the cooling space 211, it comes out from the exhaust hole 26 and enters the air inlet end of the cooling device, thereby delivering the cooling air into the cooling space 211 and realizing the circulation of the cooling air.

[0082] Furthermore, a one-way valve can be provided on the pipeline between the air inlet 25 and the air outlet of the cooling device so that the cooling air can only enter the cooling space 211 from the air inlet 25 and will not return to the cooling device from the air inlet 25.

[0083] In addition, in order to improve the air flow, the cooling plate 3 is used to dissipate heat and cool down the hard disk 9 in the test slot 11. Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the test box 1 is provided with ventilation slots 14 communicating with the test slot 11 on both sides of the test slot 11 along the second direction and on the side away from the plug-in inlet 12 along the first direction. The ventilation slots 14 on both sides of the test slot 11 along the second direction are partially connected to the cooling slots 13 on the corresponding side (as shown in FIG. Figure 10 As shown); the slot walls of the ventilation slots 14 on both sides of the test slot 11 along the second direction are provided with first heat dissipation holes 151, the slot walls of the ventilation slots 14 on the side of the test slot 11 away from the plug inlet 12 along the first direction are provided with second heat dissipation holes 152, and the bottom of the test slot 11 along the third direction is provided with third heat dissipation holes 153.

[0084] That is to say, this embodiment sets up a ventilation slot 14, sets up a first heat dissipation hole 151 and a second heat dissipation hole 152 on the slot wall of the ventilation slot 14, and sets up a third heat dissipation hole 153 at the bottom of the test slot 11, so as to utilize the heat dissipation holes in multiple directions to improve the fluidity of the air around the test slot 11, and cools the air around the hard disk 9 through the cooling plate 3. The heat dissipated by the hard disk 9 is absorbed by the cooling plate 3 through thermal conduction, and the hard disk 9 is cooled with air as the medium. This solution can accelerate the heat dissipation and cooling effect of the cooling plate 3 on the hard disk 9, and reduce the damage to the hard disk 9 during the hot plug test.

[0085] In addition, in some embodiments, a first temperature sensor is provided in the test slot 11 for detecting the temperature in the test slot 11, so that when the temperature in the test slot 11 reaches a first preset value, the cooling plate 3 is moved from the position of the cooling slot 13 corresponding to the insulation space 212 to the position of the cooling slot 13 corresponding to the cooling space 211, so that the cooling plate 3 is moved from the position of the cooling slot 13 corresponding to the cooling space 211 to the cooling space 211.

[0086] That is to say, when the first temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the test slot 11 reaches the first preset value, it indicates that the cooling plate 3 no longer has a cooling effect on the hard disk 9. At this time, the cooling plate 3 corresponding to the insulation space 212 of the cooling slot 13 can be moved to the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling slot 13, so that the cooling plate 3 can be moved from the position of the cooling space 211 corresponding to the cooling slot 13 to the cooling space 211, so that the cooling plate 3 can be cooled in the cooling space 211.

[0087] Furthermore, in some embodiments, a second temperature sensor is provided in the cooling space 211 for detecting the temperature in the cooling space 211 so that when the temperature in the cooling space 211 reaches a second preset value, the cooling device is turned off and the pleated plate 4 is contracted and folded.

[0088] That is to say, when the second temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the cooling space 211 reaches the second preset value, it indicates that the cooling plate 3 has completed cooling in the cooling space 211. At this time, the cooling device can be closed and the pleated plate 4 can be contracted and folded to move the cooling plate 3 from the cooling space 211 to the insulation space 212.

[0089] In addition, the detection signal of the second temperature sensor can also be used to control the electromagnet 56 mentioned above to be powered off, that is, when the second temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the cooling space 211 reaches the second preset value, the electromagnet 56 is powered off, so that the swing plate 54 drives the first baffle 22 to block the first connection under the action of the first elastic member 57, so as to close the insulation space 212, so that the cooling plate 3 can enter the insulation space 212 from the cooling space 211.

[0090] In addition, if Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the pre-cooling tank 21 passes through the cooling box 2 along the third direction, and a sealing plate 27 is provided on the top of the pre-cooling tank 21, and the sealing plate 27 is detachably connected to the cooling box 2. It can be understood that the bottom of the pre-cooling tank 21 is connected to the corresponding cooling tank 13, and the top of the pre-cooling tank 21 passes through the cooling box 2, so as to facilitate the placement of the cooling plate 3 from the top of the pre-cooling tank 21, that is, after removing the sealing plate 27, the cooling plate 3 can be placed in the pre-cooling tank 21; when the sealing plate 27 is connected to the cooling box 2, the pre-cooling tank 21 can be closed by the sealing plate 27, that is, after covering the sealing plate 27, the cooling space 211 and the heat preservation space 212 can be both sealed spaces.

[0091] In addition, if Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom surface of the cooling box 2 is provided with a first support leg 28; the first support leg 28 is provided on the outside of the test box 1 and extends to a position flush with the bottom of the test box 1 or the bottom of the second support leg 16 of the test box 1. In other words, this embodiment utilizes the first support leg 28 to support the cooling box 2, preventing the cooling box 2 from exerting excessive pressure on the test box 1. It will be understood that when the bottom of the test box 1 is not provided with the second support leg 16, the first support leg 28 extends to a position flush with the bottom of the test box 1; when the bottom of the test box 1 is provided with the second support leg 16, the first support leg 28 extends to a position flush with the bottom of the second support leg 16 of the test box 1.

[0092] In addition, in some embodiments, an inner peripheral wall of the pre-cooling tank 21 is provided with a thermal insulation layer to utilize the thermal insulation layer to reduce the loss of cold in the pre-cooling tank 21. Exemplarily, the thermal insulation layer is thermal insulation cotton.

[0093] In addition, in some embodiments, a side of the test slot 11 along the first direction away from the plug-in entrance 12 is provided with a make way opening 17 for the test cable to be inserted into the test interface of the hard disk 9, so as to ensure that the test cable can be inserted into the test interface of the hard disk 9 and ensure that the hard disk 9 can perform hot plug testing normally.

[0094] It should be noted that the above embodiments do not limit the specific material of the cooling plate 3, as long as the cooling plate 3 can play a cooling role. For example, the cooling plate 3 is a copper plate, which has a strong thermal conductivity and has a good cooling effect.

[0095] In addition to the above-mentioned server hard disk hot-swap device, the present invention also provides a server including the server hard disk hot-swap device disclosed in the above embodiment.

[0096] The focus of this embodiment is that the server includes the server hard disk hot-swappable device disclosed in any one of the above embodiments, so that the server at least includes the beneficial effects of the above server hard disk hot-swappable device, which will not be repeated here.
