[0055] In the description of the application, the relationship terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between the entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "contain" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or equipment including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, article or equipment. Without more limitation, the element defined by the statement "including a" does not exclude the presence of another identical element in the process, method, article or equipment including the element.
[0056] Referring to Figures 1 to 14 The embodiments of the application provide a server cabinet, which comprises a first upright column 100, a second upright column 400 and a first cross beam 500. The first upright column 100 is located at the front of the cabinet and is used to support and fix the server to be installed at the front of the cabinet. The second upright column 400 is arranged at the rear of the cabinet along the installation direction of the server. The first cross beam 500 is connected between the first upright column 100 and the second upright column 400 on the same side of the cabinet and is arranged along the side of the fixing space 200 of the server to be installed. The upper portion of the first cross beam 500 is provided with a containing space for accommodating the target device 800. The first upright column 100 and / or the second upright column 400 is / are provided with an installation opening leading to the containing space, and the installation opening is used at least for the target device 800 to enter and exit the containing space.
[0057] It should be understood that the server cabinet at least provides the fixing space 200 for installing the server, that is, the server is contained in the fixing space 200 for normal use. After the server is installed in the cabinet, the front face (i.e. the face with function keys, etc.) of the server faces the front of the cabinet, the back face (i.e. the face away from the front face) of the server faces the rear of the cabinet, and the installation direction of the server refers to the direction from the front of the cabinet to the rear of the cabinet. For example, the first upright column 100 and the second upright column 400 are arranged along the installation direction of the server, and the first cross beam 500 is arranged along the side of the fixing space 200 of the server to be installed. Figure 4The space rectangular coordinate system shown in the figure is taken as an example. The side of the cabinet facing the positive direction of the X axis is the front side, the side of the cabinet facing the negative direction of the X axis is the back side, the side of the cabinet facing the positive direction of the Y axis is the left side, the side of the cabinet facing the negative direction of the Y axis is the right side, the side of the cabinet facing the positive direction of the Z axis is the upper side, and the side of the cabinet facing the negative direction of the Z axis is the lower side.
[0058] The front and back of the cabinet are distributed along the installation direction of the servers. The front of the cabinet is closer to the front of the cabinet than the back of the cabinet, and the back of the cabinet is closer to the back of the cabinet than the front of the cabinet. The first column 100 is located at the front of the cabinet, and the second column 400 is located at the back of the cabinet. Therefore, the first column 100 is closer to the front of the cabinet than the second column 400, and the second column 400 is closer to the back of the cabinet than the first column 100. The first cross beam 500 is connected between the first column 100 and the second column 400 on the same side of the cabinet, and is arranged along the side of the fixed space 200 in the cabinet, that is, the first cross beam 500 can be connected to the first column 100 and the second column 400 on the left side of the cabinet, or the first column 100 and the second column 400 on the right side of the cabinet. The first cross beam 500 is located outside the fixed space 200 for installing servers in the cabinet, and therefore does not occupy the fixed space 200 for installing servers in the cabinet. The area above the first cross beam 500 between the first column 100 and the second column 400 has a receiving space, which can be used to accommodate the target device 800. The target device 800 can enter and exit the receiving space through the installation opening provided on the first column 100 or the second column 400. The target device 800 can be, for example, a switch, a power distribution unit, a cooling liquid distribution unit, etc. The present application does not limit the type of target device 800.
[0059] In the server cabinet provided in the present application, the area above the first cross beam 500 connecting the first column 100 and the second column 400 can be used to accommodate the target device 800, and the target device 800 can not occupy the fixed space 200 for installing servers in the cabinet. Compared with the conventional server cabinet, the available space in the cabinet is enriched, and therefore the development demand for supporting integrated devices with limited space can be better met.
[0060] In some embodiments, the first column 100 can be provided with a first installation opening 101, and the second column 400 can be provided with a second installation opening 401, that is, the server cabinet can be configured to have installation openings leading to the receiving space on both the first column 100 and the second column 400. In other embodiments, only one of the first column 100 and the second column 400 can be provided with an installation opening, as long as the installation needs of the target device 800 can be met.
[0061] In Figure 1 and Figure 3In the embodiment shown by way of example, each of the two first uprights 100 at the front of the cabinet is provided with two first mounting openings 101, and each of the two second uprights 400 at the back of the cabinet is provided with four second mounting openings 401. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of first mounting openings 101 and second mounting openings 401 can be set to other values as required, and only one of the two first uprights 100 can be provided with first mounting openings 101, and only one of the two second uprights 400 can be provided with second mounting openings 401.
[0062] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , since the first uprights 100 and the second uprights 400 of the cabinet have a vertical dimension much greater than a horizontal dimension, the first mounting openings 101 and the second mounting openings 401 can be set to vertical oblongs, and the length dimension and the width dimension can be set according to the mounting needs of the target device 800. Of course, in other embodiments, the first mounting openings 101 and the second mounting openings 401 can be set to other shapes, such as long circular holes, etc. Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 9 , the target device 800 can be supported by the first cross beam 500 after being pushed into the accommodation space above the first cross beam 500 from the mounting openings.
[0063] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , in some embodiments, the first uprights 100 and / or the second uprights 400 can be provided with fixing holes offset in the vertical direction from the mounting openings, which are used to mount fasteners connecting the lugs 810 of the target device 800. The first uprights 100 can be provided with first fixing holes 103 offset in the vertical direction from the first mounting openings 101, and the second uprights 400 can be provided with second fixing holes 403 offset in the vertical direction from the second mounting openings 401, so as to Figure 10 For example, after the target device 800 is pushed into the second mounting openings 401, the mounting holes on the lugs 810 of the target device 800 are aligned with the second fixing holes 403, and the fasteners passing through the mounting holes and the second fixing holes 403 can fixedly connect the target device 800 with the second uprights 400. In this way, the stability of the target device 800 in the cabinet can be improved. It should be noted that, in Figure 10 In the embodiment shown by way of example, the second fixing holes 403 are provided above and below the second mounting openings 401, and in other embodiments, the second fixing holes 403 can be provided only above or below the second mounting openings 401. Similarly, the first fixing holes 103 can be provided above and below the first mounting openings 101, or only above or below the first mounting openings 101.
[0064] Referring to Figure 5, Figure 6 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the first column 100 and / or the second column 400 may have a first cable-passing hole at the cross-sectional position corresponding to the first crossbeam 500, and the first crossbeam 500 may have a cable-passing groove 530 communicating with the first cable-passing hole. In this structure, the first crossbeam 500 may be non-solid, and the hollow structure of the first crossbeam 500 forms the cable-passing groove 530, which communicates with the first cable-passing hole. The first cable-passing hole and the cable-passing groove 530 can be used to arrange cables and similar cable facilities, such as cables, conduits, etc. Figure 5 and Figure 9 In the exemplary embodiment shown, the first column 100 is provided with a first wire passage hole a102, and the second column 400 is provided with a first wire passage hole b402.
[0065] See Figure 6 In some embodiments, the upper surface of the first crossbeam 500 may have a second cable passage hole 510 communicating with the cable passage groove 530. The second cable passage hole 510 can be used for arranging cables and similar cable facilities. It should be noted that the position and number of the second cable passage holes 510 on the upper surface of the first crossbeam 500 can be set as needed. For example, in… Figure 12 In the exemplary embodiment, the first crossbeam 500 has two second wire-passing holes 510 at positions near the first column 100 and near the second column 400. Similarly, the lower surface of the first crossbeam 500 may have a third wire-passing hole 520 communicating with the wire-passing groove 530. The position and number of the third wire-passing holes 520 on the lower surface of the first crossbeam 500 can be set as needed.
[0066] See Figures 5 to 7 In some embodiments, the first crossbeam 500 may have an opening located between its upper and lower surfaces, connected by a cable tray 530. It is readily understood that the opening is located on the side of the first crossbeam 500 facing the mounting space 200 within the server rack, allowing personnel to organize cables and other equipment located inside the first crossbeam 500. The shape and size of the opening can be customized as needed; for example, the opening may be rectangular and occupy more than 80% of the overall dimension of the first crossbeam 500 in the horizontal direction.
[0067] In some embodiments, the server rack may include a cover 700, which may be disposed on the first crossbeam 500 at a position corresponding to an opening, and is detachably connected to the first crossbeam 500 to cover the opening. It is easy to understand that during installation and maintenance, workers can first remove the cover 700 from the first crossbeam 500, then organize or repair cables and other items arranged inside the first crossbeam 500 through the opening, and after the work is completed, replace the cover 700 at the opening position, thus protecting the cables and other items inside the first crossbeam 500.
[0068] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the cover plate 700 may be provided with a first snap-fit structure 710 for engaging with the first crossbeam 500, and the first crossbeam 500 may be provided with a second snap-fit structure 540 that cooperates with the first snap-fit structure 710. This configuration allows workers to easily disassemble and install the cover plate 700 without the need for additional tools. In some embodiments, the first snap-fit structure 710 may be a claw, and the second snap-fit structure 540 may be a slot. Workers can hold the cover plate 700, align the claw with the slot, and press to install the cover plate 700 onto the first crossbeam 500. Of course, in other embodiments, the cover plate 700 and the first crossbeam 500 may be detachably connected in other ways. For example, the cover plate 700 may be provided with a hook, and the first crossbeam 500 may be provided with a hanging hole that cooperates with the hook. Workers can hang the cover plate 700 onto the first crossbeam 500 to cover the opening.
[0069] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the server rack may include a first spring clip 600, which is disposed on the upper surface of the first crossbeam 500. The first spring clip 600 has a first abutment portion protruding into the accommodating space, which is used to abut against the outer surface of the target device 800 vertically. The first spring clip 600 can provide a certain elastic support for the target device 800 within the accommodating space and can play a role in buffering and vibration reduction during transportation. Moreover, when a fixing hole for connecting the lug 810 of the target device 800 is provided below the mounting opening, the fixing hole may be a through hole communicating with the accommodating space. In this case, the lower edge of the mounting opening will be higher than the upper surface of the first crossbeam 500. The first spring clip 600, being disposed on the upper surface of the first crossbeam 500, can play a leveling role. That is, after the target device 800 is installed into the accommodating space, the first abutment portion of the first spring clip 600 is at the same height as the lower edge of the mounting opening, so that the outer surface of the target device 800 abutting against the first abutment portion is in a horizontal or nearly horizontal state. Of course, in other embodiments, the first spring 600 can be replaced by a rigid member, in which case the rigid member provides rigid support to the target device 800, and the upper surface of the rigid member can be set to be at the same height as the lower edge of the mounting port.
[0070] See Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 The server rack may have a first shell plate 310 and a second shell plate 320 arranged opposite to each other. The first shell plate 310 and the second shell plate 320 provide part of the exterior surface of the server rack. The first upright 100 and the second upright 400 may be located inside the first shell plate 310 and the second shell plate 320. The first shell plate 310 and the second shell plate 320 may be configured to extend beyond the first upright 100 and / or the second upright 400 in the server installation direction. In some embodiments, there may be two or more first crossbeams 500 connecting the same set of first uprights 100 and second uprights 400. These first crossbeams 500 are distributed vertically at intervals, and the area between two adjacent first crossbeams 500 can serve as an accommodating space for the target device 800. It is easy to understand that since an accommodating space needs to be formed above the first crossbeams 500, the first crossbeams 500 cannot be connected to the highest position of the first uprights 100 and the second uprights 400. However, in order to improve the overall structural strength of the server rack, the server rack may include a second crossbeam (not shown in the figure). The second crossbeam can be connected to the upper end of the first column 100 and the upper end of the second column 400. That is, the second crossbeam is connected between the first column 100 and the second column 400 in the same way as the first crossbeam 500, except that the position of the second crossbeam is higher than that of the first crossbeam 500.
[0071] In some embodiments, a second spring (not shown in the figure) may be provided on the lower surface of the first crossbeam 500. The first spring 600 may have a second abutment portion protruding into the accommodating space, which is used to abut against the outer surface of the target device 800 vertically. The structure and function of the second spring can be referred to the previous description of the first spring 600, and will not be repeated here. It is easy to understand that when the target device 800 is located between the upper and lower first crossbeams 500, the first spring 600 and the second spring can clamp the target device 800 vertically, thereby making the target device 800 more stable in the cabinet. Similarly, in embodiments where the cabinet is provided with the aforementioned first crossbeam 500, a second spring may be provided on the lower surface of the first crossbeam 500 so that it can clamp the target device 800 together with the first spring 600 on the second crossbeam below the first crossbeam 500.
[0072] See Figures 11 to 14In some embodiments, the first upright 100 may include a first tube 110, a first bend 120, and a first connecting portion 130. The first tube 110 has a rectangular cross-section, the first bend 120 has an L-shaped cross-section, and the concave side of the first bend 120 faces the diagonal of the cabinet. The first connecting portion 130 connects the first tube 110 and the first bend 120, and may be provided with a first mounting port 101. This design effectively balances the weight and strength of the first upright 100. Specifically, the structural design minimizes the weight of the first upright 100 while maintaining relatively high strength, thus preventing bending and deformation during cabinet transportation and operation.
[0073] The first tube portion 110 and the first bend portion 120 extend vertically. The horizontal cross-section of the first tube portion 110 is rectangular, and the horizontal cross-section of the first bend portion 120 is L-shaped. The cross-section of the first bend portion 120 includes a first bend and a second bend forming the bend. The lengths of the first bend and the second bend can be equal or unequal. One of the first bend and the second bend satisfies the condition of being parallel to the installation direction of the server, such that the concave side of the bend formed by the first bend and the second bend faces the diagonal direction of the rack. That is, the horizontal cross-section of the rack is approximately rectangular, and the concave side of the first bend portion 120 faces the middle of the horizontal cross-section of the rack, and the direction it faces is parallel or approximately parallel to the diagonal of the horizontal cross-section of the rack. For example, the first upright 100 located on the right side of the rack has its first bend portion 120 with its concave side facing the second upright 400 located on the left side of the rack.
[0074] The cross-section of the first tube portion 110 is frame-shaped and can be square or rectangular. The first tube portion 110 is located on the outer convex side of the first corner portion 120 and is connected to the first corner portion 120 through the first connecting portion 130. Within the cross-section of the first column 100, the first connecting portion 130 can satisfy the collinearity condition with one frame edge of the first tube portion 110 and one bend edge of the first corner. The other frame edges of the first tube portion 110 and the other bend edge of the first corner are located on the same side of the first connecting portion 130 in the front-back direction of the cabinet. This can be the side of the first connecting portion 130 facing the accommodating space for the target device 800, or the side of the first connecting portion 130 facing away from the accommodating space.
[0075] When the first column 100 includes a first tube portion 110, a first bend portion 120 and a first connecting portion 130, the cross-section of the first column 100 is generally irregular in shape. Of course, in other embodiments, the first column 100 can be configured in other structural forms. For example, the first column 100 can be configured to have a regular rectangular cross-section.
[0076] See Figure 12 Based on the first column 100 including the first connecting portion 130, in order to further improve the structural strength of the first column 100, the server rack may include a first reinforcing member 140. The first reinforcing member 140 may be located on the concave side of the first corner portion 120, and is at least partially fixedly connected to the first mounting opening 101 corresponding to the first corner portion 120. The cross-section of the first reinforcing member 140 is L-shaped, and the first reinforcing member 140 and the first partial portion of the first corner portion 120 form a tubular shape. That is, within the same cross-section, the first reinforcing member 140 and the first corner portion 120 can form a frame-shaped structure.
[0077] In the height direction of the first column 100, the size of the first reinforcing member 140 can be set to be equal to or approximately equal to the size of the first corner portion 120, that is, the first reinforcing member 140 strengthens the structural strength at all points along the full height of the first corner portion 120. Alternatively, the size of the first reinforcing member 140 in the height direction can be set according to the size of the first mounting opening 101 on the first column 100, and positioned in the first corner portion 120 corresponding to the first mounting opening 101. In this structure, the first reinforcing member 140 occupies a portion of the height of the first corner portion 120, which can enhance the structural strength of key parts while reducing the overall weight of the cabinet.
[0078] like Figure 12 As shown, in cross-section, both the first reinforcing member 140 and the first bend 120 are L-shaped. The first reinforcing member 140 is located on the concave side of the first bend 120. One bend of the first reinforcing member 140 can satisfy the parallel condition with the first bend of the first bend 120, and the other bend of the first reinforcing member 140 can satisfy the parallel condition with the second bend of the first bend 120. The size of the first reinforcing member 140 is smaller than the size of the first bend 120, that is, the bend of the first reinforcing member 140 is smaller than the bend of the first bend 120 that satisfies the parallel condition. The sizes of the two bends of the first reinforcing member 140 can be equal or unequal. Figure 12In the exemplary embodiment, the two folded edges of the first reinforcing member 140 have unequal dimensions. The shorter folded edge is perpendicular to the direction from the first column 100 to the second column 400, while the longer folded edge is parallel to the direction from the first column 100 to the second column 400. This arrangement allows the first reinforcing member 140 to form a larger frame with the first corner portion 120 while avoiding excessive space occupied on the folded edge of the first corner portion 120 that is perpendicular to the direction from the first column 100 to the second column 400. This allows for more space on the folded edge of the first corner portion 120 to accommodate square hole strips. It should be understood that the square hole strips in the server rack serve to indicate position height; the size and spacing of the square holes can be set according to industry standards, and will not be elaborated further here.
[0079] In some embodiments, the first tube portion 110, the first bend portion 120, and the first connecting portion 130 can be connected together by welding, riveting, or other means. Alternatively, the first tube portion 110, the first bend portion 120, and the first connecting portion 130 can also be configured as an integral structure. Similarly, the first reinforcing member 140 and the first bend portion 120 can be connected together by welding, riveting, or other means, or the first reinforcing member 140 and the first bend portion 120 can be configured as an integral structure.
[0080] The above design for the structure of the first column 100 also applies to the second column 400, see [link / reference]. Figures 11 to 14 In some embodiments, the second column 400 may include a second tube portion 410, a second bend portion 420, and a second connecting portion 430. The second tube portion 410 has a rectangular cross-section, the second bend portion 420 has an L-shaped cross-section, and the concave side of the second bend portion 420 faces the diagonal direction of the cabinet. The second connecting portion 430 connects the second tube portion 410 and the second bend portion 420, and may be provided with a second mounting port 401. The structural configuration of the second tube portion 410, the second bend portion 420, and the second connecting portion 430 can be referred to the previous description of the first tube portion 110, the first bend portion 120, and the first connecting portion 130, and will not be repeated here.
[0081] To further enhance the structural strength of the second column 400, the server rack may include a second reinforcing member 440. The second reinforcing member 440 may be located on the concave side of the second corner portion 420 and is at least fixedly connected to a second portion corresponding to the second mounting opening 401 of the second corner portion 420. The cross-section of the second reinforcing member 440 is L-shaped, and the second reinforcing member 440 and the second portion form a tubular structure. The structural configuration of the second reinforcing member 440 can be referenced in the previous description of the first reinforcing member 140, and will not be repeated here.
