[0019] Example 1 like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a server chassis, compared with existing ordinary server chassis assemblies, firstly, has a top cleaning mechanism installed at the top of the chassis body 1. This top cleaning mechanism includes a mounting base 21 installed on the top surface of the chassis body. A motor 22 is fixedly connected inside the mounting base 21. The output end of the motor 22 is connected to a lead screw 23 via a shaft connector. A ball bearing nut seat 24 is movably mounted on the lead screw 23, and the ball bearing nut seat 24 is used for sliding and limiting contact with the top surface of the chassis body 1. A mounting rod 25 is connected to the ball bearing nut seat 24, and a rubber scraper 26 is mounted on the mounting rod 25, which is used for contacting the top surface of the chassis body 1.

[0020] In this embodiment, a top cleaning mechanism is added to the upper part of the server chassis 1. When the top cleaning mechanism is working, the motor 22 in the mounting base 21 rotates in both directions, driving the lead screw 23 to rotate. The ball nut seat 24 can slide along the lead screw 23, driving the rubber scraper 26 connected to the mounting rod 25 to clean the top of the chassis. At the same time, a dust leakage hole 3 is provided at the bottom inner part of the mounting base 21, and a collection box 4 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the chassis 1, and the collection box 4 is located below the dust leakage hole 3. The cleaned dust falls through the dust leakage hole 3 and is collected by the collection box 4. This design can maintain the cleanliness of the upper surface of the chassis 1 and reduce the number of steps required for manual maintenance and cleaning.

[0021] Example 2 Furthermore, the outer surface of the server chassis 1 is provided with an outer shell 7, and a buffer protection structure for elastic protection is installed and connected between the chassis 1 and the outer shell 7. This buffer protection structure includes several buffer springs 6; the buffer springs 6 are evenly distributed around the gap between the chassis 1 and the outer shell 7, with one end of each buffer spring 6 connected to the chassis 1 and the other end connected to the outer shell 7. When the chassis is subjected to an accidental impact, the outer shell 7 can first withstand the impact, and the buffer springs 6 can cushion the external force, reducing the impact of the accidental impact on the interior of the chassis 1.

[0022] Meanwhile, the outer casing 7 has several ventilation holes 8 for ventilation and heat dissipation; the ventilation holes 8 ensure better heat dissipation and ventilation inside the casing 1.

Under the action of the deformation spring restoring its deformation, the wedge block is moved and positioned in the wedge groove, where it is elastically and adaptively matched with the wedge groove.

[0025] In this embodiment, by pulling the pull rod 10 upward, the pull rod 10 moves along the movable channel (upward) opened in the pull seat 9; when the pull rod 10 moves along the movable channel to the position of the movable guide hole opened in the upper side wall of the movable channel, the wedge block, under the action of the deformation spring restoring deformation, drives the wedge block to move and be placed in the wedge groove, and is elastically limited and adapted to contact the wedge groove, thereby limiting the pull rod 10 to facilitate the movement of the server housing 1 by the pull rod 10.

[0026] Example 4 Furthermore, the bottom of the housing 1 is provided with retractable and movable universal shock-absorbing wheels 12, which are connected to the housing 1 in a retractable and movable manner through a movable structure.

[0027] In this embodiment, the movable structure includes an electric telescopic rod 11; one end of the electric telescopic rod 11 is connected to the universal shock-absorbing wheel 12 via a connecting structure; a limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, and the end of the electric telescopic rod 11 away from the universal shock-absorbing wheel 12 passes through the limiting groove and is used to connect with the inner side wall of the housing.

[0028] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the connection structure includes a movable connecting plate 111, which is movably positioned in a limiting groove at the bottom of the housing 1. The bottom end of the movable connecting plate 111 is used to connect with the universal shock-absorbing wheel 11, and the top end of the movable connecting plate 111 is used to hinge to the electric telescopic rod 11. One end of the movable connecting plate 111 is provided with a movable hinge seat 112; one end of the movable hinge seat 112 is rotatably connected to the movable connecting plate 111 via a rotating shaft, and the other end of the movable hinge seat 112 is movably hinged to the side wall of the limiting groove via a movable seat. A spring damper 113 is hinged to one end of the movable hinge seat 112 near the movable connecting plate 111; a movable guide groove is provided at one end of the movable connecting plate 111 near the spring damper 113, and the end of the spring damper 113 away from the movable hinge seat 112 passes through the movable guide groove elastically and has a movable adjusting rod 114 passing through its end, which is used to adjust the movable connecting plate 111.

[0029] Furthermore, the movable adjusting rod 114 is rotatably mounted on the fixed block 115; the bottom end face of the movable connecting plate 111 is connected to a movable guide rail groove 116, and the fixed block 115 is disposed in the movable guide rail groove 116; the bottom end face of the movable guide rail groove 116 has a bottom movable groove, and the bottom end of the fixed block 115 is connected to a bottom sliding block, which is movably adapted to the bottom movable groove, and the bottom sliding block is limitedly connected to the bottom end of the movable guide rail groove by bolts; the side end face of the movable guide rail groove 116 has The fixed block 115 has a side movable groove, and the two side walls of the fixed block 115 are respectively connected to side sliding blocks.

The positioning screws 117 are used to pass through the fixed block 115, and the movable connecting plate 111 and the fixed block 115 are limited to the fixed block 115 by positioning screws 117.

[0030] In this embodiment, the movement of the electric telescopic rod 11 is controlled by a control switch 13. When the server chassis 1 needs to be moved, the electric telescopic rod 11 is extended by the control switch. The electric telescopic rod 11 then drives the universal shock-absorbing wheel 12 at the bottom of the movable connecting plate 111 to move downwards (towards the ground) under the action of the movable hinge seat 112, so that the universal shock-absorbing wheel 12 rolls into contact with the ground, thereby facilitating the movement of the server chassis 1. When the server chassis 1 is moved to a designated position, the electric telescopic rod 11 is retracted by the control switch. The electric telescopic rod 11 then drives the universal shock-absorbing wheel 12 at the bottom of the movable connecting plate 111 to move upwards (away from the ground) under the action of the movable hinge seat 112, so that the universal shock-absorbing wheel 12 disengages from the ground and enters the limiting groove at the bottom of the chassis 1, where it is hidden.

[0031] Furthermore, during implementation, the position of the fixed block 115 in the movable guide groove 116 can be adjusted according to factors such as the size of the server chassis 1 and the angle of contact with the ground, thereby achieving the purpose of vibration reduction, labor saving, and convenient movement.
