Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of server cabinet heat dissipation technology, and in particular to a server cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Server racks are specialized rack-mount structures used for the centralized installation, management, and protection of servers, and are widely used in data centers, enterprise server rooms, and other similar settings. Servers generate a significant amount of heat during operation, and prolonged operation can lead to excessive temperature rise, severely impacting server speed and lifespan.

[0003] Current cooling methods mostly use cooling fans to provide air cooling within the cabinet. However, since these fans are typically installed on the side walls of the cabinet, their airflow is unidirectional and difficult to adjust, resulting in poor air circulation and dead zones, thus affecting the effectiveness of air cooling. Furthermore, existing server racks use a tray structure to support servers, with the bottom of the servers completely flush against the tray, leading to poor airflow and hindering server heat dissipation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a server rack to at least solve the problem of poor heat dissipation in server racks in related technologies.

[0005] This application provides a server rack, including:

[0006] The main cabinet body is used to house the servers;

[0007] The heat dissipation mechanism includes a fan assembly, an air swing assembly, and a drive assembly; the fan assembly includes multiple fans arranged at intervals along the vertical direction; the air swing assembly is located on the air outlet side of the fan assembly and includes multiple air guide plates arranged at intervals and capable of synchronously reciprocating; the drive assembly is drivenly connected to the fan assembly and the air swing assembly so as to drive multiple fans to rotate while driving multiple air guide plates to reciprocate.

[0008] The lifting mechanism, located inside the main cabinet body, is used to lift the server so that it can be suspended inside the main cabinet body; the air oscillation component is positioned opposite the lifting mechanism to direct air towards the server.

[0009] This application utilizes a heat dissipation mechanism comprising a fan assembly, a swing assembly, and a drive assembly. The drive assembly synchronizes the operation of the fan assembly and the swing assembly. Multiple vertically spaced fans ensure even airflow throughout the cabinet body. Multiple continuously oscillating air guides change the airflow direction in real time, ensuring that the cooling air blown by the fans is evenly distributed throughout the cabinet body, preventing heat loss in any dead zones. Furthermore, with the assistance of a support mechanism, the server is suspended and fixed within the cabinet body, allowing for full contact between the server and the cooling air, increasing the heat dissipation contact area. The swing assembly, positioned directly opposite the support mechanism, directs airflow towards the server, further enhancing heat dissipation. This server rack effectively solves the problem of poor heat dissipation and significantly improves the overall cooling performance of server racks. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] Embodiments of this application provide a server rack, which includes a rack body 1, a heat dissipation mechanism 2, and a support mechanism 3. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the interior of the cabinet body 1 is hollow to house the server. The heat dissipation mechanism 2 includes a fan assembly 21, a swing assembly 22, and a drive assembly 23. The fan assembly 21 includes multiple fans 211 arranged vertically at intervals. In this embodiment, three fans 211 are provided to supply air into the cabinet body 1, so as to continuously blow external air into the cabinet body 1 and improve the air flow inside the cabinet body 1. The swing assembly 22 is located on the air outlet side of the fan assembly 21. It includes multiple air guide plates 221 arranged at intervals and capable of synchronous reciprocating. The multiple air guide plates 221 can change the air direction in real time. The drive assembly 23 is connected to the fan assembly 21 and the swing assembly 22 to drive the fan assembly 21 and the swing assembly 22 to move synchronously. Under the action of the drive assembly 23, multiple fans 211 rotate synchronously and multiple air guide plates 221 also reciprocate at the same time. The air direction of the air on the air outlet side of the fan 211 changes continuously under the action of the air guide plates 221, so that a large amount of cold air can be blown evenly to all parts of the cabinet body 1, reducing the heat dissipation dead corners inside the cabinet body 1. The lifting mechanism 3 is installed inside the cabinet body 1 to lift the server so that the server can be suspended inside the cabinet body 1. The top, bottom and four circumferential walls of the server can fully contact the cooling air, increasing the heat dissipation contact area. The air swing component 22 is set directly opposite the lifting mechanism 3, which can guide the air to the server, which helps to further improve the heat dissipation effect of the server.

[0030] The server rack in this embodiment has a simple overall structure. The drive component 23 synchronously drives the fan component 21 and the swing component 22. Multiple fans 211 arranged vertically at intervals can make the air intake of the main body of the rack 1 uniform in all directions. Multiple air guide plates 221 that swing back and forth can change the air direction in real time so that the cooling air blown by the fans 211 can be evenly blown to all parts of the main body of the rack 1, preventing the main body of the rack 1 from having heat dissipation dead corners. In addition, the server is lifted and suspended in the main body of the rack 1 by the lifting mechanism 3, so that the server can fully contact the cooling air, increasing the heat dissipation contact area. The swing component 22 is set directly opposite the lifting mechanism 3, which can guide the air to the server, which is conducive to further improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0031] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the main cabinet 1 of this embodiment is divided into a main cabinet 11 and a secondary cabinet 12 that are connected to each other. The servers are mainly placed inside the main cabinet 11 of the main cabinet 1. The main cabinet 1 has a rotatable cabinet door 13 for easy access to the servers. A cabinet lock 14 is provided on the cabinet door 13 to lock the cabinet door 13 and improve the anti-theft performance of the main cabinet 1. Dust filters 15 are laid on both sides of the main cabinet 1, which can improve the airflow and heat dissipation of the main cabinet 1 and prevent external dust and foreign objects from entering the interior of the main cabinet 1. Support legs 16 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the main cabinet 1. The height of each support leg 16 is adjustable. If the ground is uneven, the height of each support leg 16 can be adjusted to level the main cabinet 1. A large area of ​​tempered glass is provided on the cabinet door 13 to achieve a visible effect. Technicians can check the operation of each server inside the main cabinet 1 through the tempered glass without opening the cabinet door 13.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the drive assembly 23 in this embodiment includes a rotating spindle 231, multiple first transmission bevel gears 232, multiple second transmission gears 233, a third transmission gear 234, a guide frame 235, a moving frame 236, a swing arm 237, a transmission rack 238, multiple fourth transmission gears 239, and a drive device 2310. Specifically, the rotating spindle 231 extends vertically and is rotatably connected to the sub-cabinet 12. Optionally, the top and bottom ends of the rotating spindle 231 can be rotatably connected to the top and bottom surfaces of the sub-cabinet 12 respectively via bearing components. Multiple first transmission bevel gears 232 are vertically spaced on the rotating spindle 231. The number of first transmission bevel gears 232 is related to the number of fans 211. In this embodiment, three fans 211 are vertically spaced, and the fans 211 are fixedly installed in the sub-cabinet 12 via a crossbeam 212. Specifically, as Figure 4 As shown, the two ends of the crossbeam 212 are respectively connected to the two opposite inner walls of the sub-cabinet 12. An assembly hole is provided in the middle of the crossbeam 212, and the fan 211 is fixedly installed in the assembly hole. The fan 211 has a rotatable fan shaft. Multiple second transmission gears 233 are correspondingly connected to the fan shafts of the multiple fans 211, and the multiple second transmission gears 233 mesh with multiple first transmission bevel gears 232. In this embodiment, the first transmission bevel gears 232 and the second transmission gears 233 are bevel gears. The first transmission bevel gear 232 is fixedly connected to the rotating main shaft 231, and the second transmission gear 233 is fixedly connected to the fan shaft. When the rotating main shaft 231 rotates, it synchronously drives the first transmission bevel gear 232 to rotate, and the rotation of the first transmission bevel gear 232 drives the rotation of the second transmission gear 233, thereby achieving synchronous rotation of the multiple fans 211.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 The X direction shown is the first horizontal direction described below, the Y direction shown is the second horizontal direction described below, and the Z direction shown is the vertical direction described above and below. The third transmission gear 234 is rotatably mounted inside the cabinet body 1 and is connected to the rotating main shaft 231. When the rotating main shaft 231 rotates, it drives the third transmission gear 234 to rotate. In this embodiment, the rotating main shaft 231 and the third transmission gear 234 preferably use a conveyor belt and gear meshing transmission method, which will be described in detail later. The guide frame 235 is located at the inner bottom of the cabinet body 1 and is spaced apart from the third transmission gear 234. Specifically, the line connecting the guide frame 235 and the rotation center of the third transmission gear 234 is in the same direction as the first horizontal direction X. The movable frame 236 is slidably connected to the guide frame 235 along the first horizontal direction X. Specifically, the guide frame 235 is provided with a through hole, and the movable frame 236 is provided with an extension 2362 extending along the first horizontal direction X. The extension 2362 extends into the through hole of the guide frame 235 and is slidably connected to the through hole. The movable frame 236 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 2361 extending along the second horizontal direction Y. The first horizontal direction X and the second horizontal direction Y are coplanar and perpendicular to each other. One end of the swing arm 237 is connected to the rotation center of the third transmission gear 234. Specifically, the third transmission gear 234 is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 1 through the third transmission gear shaft. More specifically, the third transmission gear shaft is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 1. One end of the third transmission gear 234 and one end of the swing arm 237 are both fixedly connected to the third transmission gear shaft so that when the third transmission gear 234 rotates, it can drive the swing arm 237 to rotate synchronously. The other end of the swing arm 237 is provided with a guide post 2371 that can be slidably connected to the slot 2361. The guide post 2371 extends into the slot 2361. The guide post 2371 and the swing arm 237 can be directly fixedly connected or rotated, so that when the swing arm 237 rotates, under the limiting action of the guide frame 235, the swing arm 237 can drive the moving frame 236 to reciprocate only along the first horizontal direction X via the guide post 2371. The transmission rack 238 is slidably connected to the cabinet body 1 along the first horizontal direction X. The moving frame 236 is connected to the transmission rack 238. When the moving frame 236 reciprocates along the first horizontal direction X, it can drive the transmission rack 238 to reciprocate synchronously. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, multiple fourth transmission gears 239 are connected to the air guide plate shafts of multiple air guide plates 221. In this embodiment, the number of fourth transmission gears 239 corresponds to the number of air guide plates 221. The air guide plates 221 are rotatably connected to the cabinet body 1 through the air guide plate shaft. The fourth transmission gears 239 are fixedly connected to the air guide plate shaft. The transmission rack 238 meshes with multiple fourth transmission gears 239. When the transmission rack 238 moves back and forth, it drives the air guide plate 221 to swing back and forth.

[0034] Furthermore, as described above, in this embodiment, the rotating spindle 231 and the third transmission gear 234 preferably employ a transmission method involving both a conveyor belt and gear meshing, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the drive assembly 23 includes a first pulley 2311, a second pulley 2312, a third pulley 2313, a fourth pulley 2314, a fifth transmission gear 2315, a first transmission belt 2316, and a second transmission belt 2317. The first pulley 2311 is located at the rotational output end of the drive device 2310. In this embodiment, the drive device 2310 is a commonly used rotary motor in the field. The second pulley 2312 and the third pulley 2313 are coaxially fixed on the rotating main shaft 231. The first pulley 2311 and the second pulley 2312 are connected by the first transmission belt 2316, so that the rotational output end of the drive device 2310 can drive the rotating main shaft 231 to rotate via the first transmission belt 2316. The fourth pulley 2314 and the fifth transmission gear 2315 are coaxially rotatably connected inside the cabinet body 1. Specifically, the fifth transmission gear drive shaft of the fifth transmission gear 2315 is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 1. The fifth transmission gear 2315 and the fourth pulley 2314 are fixedly mounted on the fifth transmission gear drive shaft. The third pulley 2313 is connected to the fourth pulley 2314 via the second transmission belt 2317. The fifth transmission gear 2315 is meshed with the third transmission gear 234 so that when the rotating main shaft 231 rotates, it can drive the fifth transmission gear 2315 to rotate via the second transmission belt 2317, thereby causing the third transmission gear 234 to rotate to realize the reciprocating swing of the air guide plate 221.

[0035] Preferably, in this embodiment, two guide frames 235 are provided, which are respectively provided on both sides of the movable frame 236 along the first horizontal direction X, so as to improve the stability of the movable frame 236 moving along the first horizontal direction X.

[0036] The specific operation process of the driving component 23 in this embodiment is as follows:

[0037] First, the drive unit 2310 starts, causing the first pulley 2311 to rotate. The first pulley 2311 drives the rotating main shaft 231 to rotate via the first transmission belt 2316. When the rotating main shaft 231 rotates, it drives multiple first transmission bevel gears 232 on the rotating main shaft 231 to rotate, so that multiple second transmission gears 233 rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the rotation of multiple fans 211. On the other hand, the rotation of the rotating main shaft 231 drives the third pulley 2313 on it to rotate. The third pulley 2313 drives the fourth pulley 2314 to rotate via the second transmission belt 2317. The rotation of the fourth pulley 2314 drives the fifth transmission gear 2315, which is coaxial with it, to rotate. The rotation of the fifth transmission gear 2315 further drives the third transmission gear 234 to rotate. The rotation of the third transmission gear 234 drives the swing arm 237 on it to rotate synchronously. When the swing arm 237 rotates, its guide post 2371 rotates in a circular motion around the rotation center of the third transmission gear 234. Since the guide post 2371 is slidably disposed within the slot 2361 of the movable frame 236, and the movable frame 236 is limited by the two guide frames 235, it can only reciprocate in the first horizontal direction X. Driven by the guide post 2371, the movable frame 236 can only reciprocate in the first horizontal direction X. When the movable frame 236 reciprocates, it drives the transmission rack 238 to reciprocate, causing multiple fourth transmission gears 239 to rotate reciprocally, thereby realizing the reciprocating oscillation of the air guide plate 221 and continuously changing its angle. It can be understood that the rotation speed of the drive device 2310 can be adjusted according to the actual situation to regulate the rotational speed of the multiple fans 211 and the reciprocating oscillation frequency of the multiple air guide plates 221, thereby achieving adjustment of the air intake volume and the oscillation frequency of the air direction.

[0038] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism 3 in this embodiment also includes a lifting part 31, a lifting seat 32, a bidirectional screw 33, a movable seat 34, and a connecting rod assembly 35. For example... Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a bidirectional screw 33 is rotatably connected to a support seat 32. The bidirectional screw 33 has a first thread 331 and a second thread 332 with opposite directions of rotation. Two movable seats 34 are provided, respectively screwed to the first thread 331 and the second thread 332. Two sets of connecting rod assemblies 35 are provided, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bidirectional screw 33. The two ends of the connecting rod assemblies 35 are rotatably connected to the two movable seats 34. The support part 31 is provided on the connecting rod assembly 35. When the bidirectional screw 33 rotates, it can drive the two movable seats 34 to move away from or towards each other along the axial direction of the bidirectional screw 33. Under the cooperative action of the two connecting rod assemblies 35, the two support parts 31 are driven to move away from or towards each other synchronously. Since the two support parts 31 can move away from or towards each other, they can be adapted to servers of different sizes, which helps to improve the versatility and adaptability of the server rack, so that servers of various sizes can be adequately cooled inside the rack.

[0039] More specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, the linkage assembly 35 includes a first link 351, a second link 352, and a third link 353 rotatably connected in sequence. The second link 352 extends along the axial direction of the bidirectional screw 33. The first link 351 is rotatably connected to a movable seat 34, and the third link 353 is rotatably connected to another movable seat 34. The lifting part 31 is disposed on the second link 352. Optionally, in this embodiment, a support part is provided on the top surface of the second link 352. In this embodiment, the support part is a support rod, one end of which is connected to the top surface of the second link 352, and the other end is connected to the bottom surface of the lifting part 31. When the bidirectional screw 33 rotates, the bidirectional screw 33 can drive the two movable seats 34 to move towards each other, and the distance between the two movable seats 34 gradually decreases. Under the squeezing action of the two movable seats 34, the first link 351 and the third link 353 simultaneously push the second link 352 outward, so that the distance between the two lifting parts 31 increases to a suitable distance. After the two support parts 31 are adjusted to a suitable distance, the server is placed horizontally on the two support parts 31. Then, the bidirectional screw 33 is rotated in the opposite direction. The bidirectional screw 33 drives the two moving seats 34 to move in a relatively distant direction. The distance between the two moving seats 34 gradually increases. Driven by the two moving seats 34, the first link 351 and the third link 353 rotate inward synchronously and push the second link 352 inward, so that the distance between the two support parts 31 is reduced. The two support parts 31 gradually fit and clamp against the wall of the server, so that the server is limited and fixed on the two support parts 31. This makes the support mechanism 3 adaptable to servers of various length and width, improving versatility.

[0040] Preferably, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the support part 31 in this embodiment has an overall L-shaped structure, preferably bent at a right angle, to match the dimensions of the server's corners. The L-shaped support part 31 can effectively clamp and limit the server, supporting at least the corners of the server so that part of the server's bottom surface is exposed, increasing the contact area between the cooling air and the server, and improving the heat dissipation effect. In addition, the support part 31 can also be of other types to achieve server limiting and fixing, but this embodiment preferably uses an L-shaped support part 31 to ensure the stability of the server when placed, prevent the server from shaking, and improve the protection effect.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the lifting seat 32 in this embodiment is a split structure, which includes a detachably connected lifting top seat 321 and a lifting base 322. The bidirectional screw 33, the movable seat 34, and the connecting rod assembly 35 are disposed on the lifting top seat 321. The lifting base 322 is detachably connected to the cabinet body 1. In this embodiment, the lifting seat 32 is designed as a split connection so that when the lifting mechanism 3 malfunctions and gets stuck, the lifting top seat 321 can be removed from the lifting base 322 for easy maintenance.

[0042] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the supporting base 322 and the cabinet body 1 are preferably connected by a plug-in method, such as... Figure 9 As shown, a support plate 17 is vertically arranged along the inner edge of the cabinet body 1. Multiple insertion holes 171 are evenly spaced vertically along the upper edge of the support plate 17. A plug 3221, which can be inserted into the insertion holes 171, is provided on the support base 322. Specifically, as shown... Figure 7 As shown, the plug-in 3221 in this embodiment has an L-shaped structure and can be hooked into the socket 171. In use, the plug-in 3221 is inserted into the socket 171 at a suitable height according to the height of the server. Preferably, there are two plug-ins 3221 and two sockets 171 respectively to improve the support stability of the support base 322.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the lifting base 322 of this embodiment is provided with a first limiting part 3223, and the bottom wall of the lifting top seat 321 is also provided with a second limiting part 3211 that can be inserted and connected to the first limiting part 3223. In this embodiment, there are preferably two first limiting parts 3223 and second limiting parts 3211, which are respectively spaced along the length direction of the lifting base 322 and the length direction of the lifting top seat 321. The lifting base 322 and the lifting top seat 321 can be quickly inserted and assembled through the first limiting part 3223 and the second limiting part 3211.

[0044] Preferably, such as Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, a limiting groove 3222 is also provided on the lifting base 322. The limiting groove 3222 can accommodate the limiting lifting top seat 321. The lifting top seat 321 is partially inserted into the limiting groove 3222. The opposite sides of the lifting top seat 321 are in contact with the two opposite inner walls of the limiting groove 3222. The limiting groove 3222 can effectively limit the width of the lifting top seat 321. In this embodiment, the second limiting part 3211 is provided in the limiting groove 3222 to effectively limit the lifting top seat 321.

[0045] Preferably, such as Figure 7As shown, in this embodiment, the top surface of the lifting top seat 321 is flush with the lifting surface 310 of the lifting part 31, so that the server can always remain horizontal under the support of the lifting surface 310 and the lifting top seat 321.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the lifting mechanism 3 also includes a knob 36, which is connected to a bidirectional screw 33. Specifically, the knob 36 is located at one end of the bidirectional screw 33 that is exposed outside the lifting top seat 321. It can rotate relative to the lifting top seat 321. When in use, technicians can rotate this knob 36 to rotate the bidirectional screw 33.

[0047] In addition, the server rack in this embodiment also includes a control system module, such as Figure 10 As shown, the control system module is electrically connected to the drive assembly 23, specifically to the drive device 2310, to control the start / stop, forward / reverse rotation, and speed of the drive device 2310, thereby controlling the operating status of the fan assembly 21 and the swing assembly 22. Furthermore, the server rack in this embodiment may also include a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor, installed inside the main body 1 of the rack, for real-time monitoring of the temperature and humidity inside the rack, and feeding back the relevant temperature and humidity data to the control system module. The control system module communicates with external devices via a communication module to send the server rack's operating status and monitoring data to the external devices, and simultaneously receives control commands from the external devices to achieve remote control. Moreover, the server rack may also include a storage module for storing the size parameters of different servers and the corresponding spacing parameters between the two support sections 31, so that technicians can quickly adjust the spacing between the two support sections 31 by referring to the corresponding parameters in the storage module.
