[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Terms used in this application to indicate spatial relative positions, such as “above,” “over,” “below,” “under,” “first end,” “second end,” “one end,” and “other end,” are used for ease of explanation to describe the relationship of one unit or feature relative to another unit or feature as shown in the accompanying drawings. The terms of spatial relative positions may be intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation other than those shown in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is flipped, a unit described as being “below” or “under” other units or features would be located “above” other units or features. Therefore, the exemplary term “below” can encompass both above and below orientations. The device may be oriented in other ways (rotated 90 degrees or other orientations), and the spatially related descriptive terms used herein will be interpreted accordingly.

[0018] Furthermore, the terms "installation," "setup," "equipped with," "connection," "sliding connection," "fixed," and "sleeve connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral structure; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be an internal connection between two devices, components, or parts. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0019] In the wind wall solution, multiple small fans operate in parallel to replace a single large fan, which can provide better ventilation and heat dissipation. Moreover, its redundancy function can ensure safe operation without shutdown.

[0020] Most existing wind wall devices are composed of multiple axial flow fans assembled in the factory. After assembly, they are bulky and inconvenient to transport. Moreover, when it is necessary to adjust the number of fans or add or remove some fans, professional personnel and a lot of tools are required, which makes it inconvenient for users to quickly disassemble and assemble according to the required number, and the operation is cumbersome.

[0021] Therefore, how to improve the structure of existing windbreak devices so that users can quickly disassemble and assemble them according to the required quantity and facilitate transportation has become an urgent issue to be addressed in this field.

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described in this application are only a part of the embodiments, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] Please see also Figures 1 to 4 In one feasible implementation, this application provides an airflow barrier device. This airflow barrier device can be applied in data centers to exchange heat with hot air to generate cold air, thereby achieving a cooling effect.

[0024] In this embodiment, the windbreak device comprises at least multiple sets of outer frames 1, and each set of outer frames 1 is equipped with a fan 2. Connecting strips 4 are fixedly connected to the top and left side of the outer frames 1, and each connecting strip 4 has a limiting port 7. Connecting grooves 6 are provided on the right side and bottom of the outer frames 1, and the connecting grooves 6 are adapted to the connecting strips 4 so that adjacent outer frames 1 can be spliced ​​together as a whole through the connecting grooves 6 and connecting strips 4. In this way, multiple outer frames 1 can be slidably fitted together through the adaptation of the connecting strips 4 and connecting grooves 6, allowing multiple outer frames 1 to be combined for combined use of multiple fans. This method facilitates the addition and removal of fans, improves the convenience of actual operation, and eliminates the need for professional personnel for assembly. Furthermore, the device is detachable, which is beneficial for storage and transportation.

[0025] Preferably, a limiting structure 8 is provided at the lower right corner of the outer frame 1. When two adjacent outer frames 1 are joined together by connecting grooves 6 and connecting strips 4, the limiting structure 8 of one outer frame 1 is inserted into the limiting opening 7 of the other outer frame 1. In this way, the limiting structure 8 maintains the stability of the connection between the outer frames 1, preventing the outer frames 1 from easily detaching after assembly, maintaining the connection stability between multiple sets of fans, making the assembly method more convenient and faster, and accelerating the work process. It should be noted that the up, down, left, right, front, and back defined in this application are all based on... Figure 1 The view shown is set as a baseline.

[0026] In one feasible implementation, the connecting strip 4 is shaped like a dovetail protrusion, and the connecting groove 6 is shaped like a dovetail groove. The dovetail shapes of the connecting strip 4 and the connecting groove 6 can fit together to prevent the connecting strip 4 from coming out of the connecting groove 6, thereby maintaining the stability of the outer frame 1 and preventing the outer frame 1 from separating from the left and right sides.

[0027] In practical applications, the outer frame 1 has two connecting slots 6 on the right and bottom sides, which are spaced apart; the outer frame 1 has two connecting strips 4 on the top and left sides, which are spaced apart, and the distance between the two connecting slots 6 is equal to the distance between the two connecting strips 4.

[0028] In one feasible implementation, please refer again to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, two handles 5 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom sides of the front of the outer frame 1. In this way, the handles 5 can be used as force points during operation, making it convenient for workers to lift the fan 2 for relocation.

[0029] Furthermore, a mesh plate 3 is fixedly connected to the back of the outer frame 1, and the mesh plate 3 blocks the rear opening of the connecting groove 6. The mesh plate 3, with its numerous mesh holes, maintains airflow, allowing the fan 2 to ventilate smoothly, and also blocks air entering the outer frame 1, achieving a filtration effect. On the other hand, the mesh plate 3 blocks the connecting strip 4 from sliding into the connecting groove 6, ensuring that the limiting rod 85 on the connecting strip 4 corresponds to the limiting opening 7.

[0030] In one feasible implementation, the outer frame 1 is also equipped with a cooling module. In practical applications, the outer frame 1 has an air guide channel connecting the front and back of the outer frame 1. The cooling module and the fan 2 are installed within the air guide channel. The fan 2 guides airflow from the front of the outer frame 1 through the air guide channel to the back of the outer frame 1. The cooling module cools the air flowing through the air guide channel to achieve a cooling effect. The cooling module can be a cooling coil.

[0031] In one feasible implementation, please also refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The limiting structure 8 may include an operating block 81. The operating block 81 is angled upwards, allowing it to be pulled upwards to press the connecting shaft 86 through the movable opening 87, thus enabling the connecting shaft 86 to smoothly drive the limiting rod 85, facilitating simultaneous operation of both limiting rods 85. A tension spring 83 is fixedly connected between the operating block 81 and the lower right corner of the outer frame 1, pulling the operating block 81 towards the lower right corner of the outer frame 1, allowing the operating block 81 to smoothly complete its reset. The operating block 81 has four movable openings 87. When the operating block 81 is operated, the movable openings 87 can press the connecting shaft 86, and provide space for the connecting shaft 86 to move smoothly. A connecting shaft 86 is slidably connected between every two movable openings 87, and a limiting rod 85 is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting shaft 86. The size of the limiting rod 85 is adapted to the size of the limiting opening 7.

[0032] Furthermore, the limiting rod 85 is slidably connected to the support sleeve 84, which is embedded in the outer frame 1 to facilitate the sliding of the limiting block 85 relative to the outer frame 1 and reduce friction.

[0033] In one feasible implementation, a fluorescent material layer 82 is fixedly connected to the operating block 81. A retaining edge 9 is provided at the lower right corner of the outer frame 1, and the operating block 81 is located behind the retaining edge 9. When the limiting structure 8 of one outer frame 1 is inserted into the limiting opening 7 of the other outer frame 1, the retaining edge 9 blocks the fluorescent material layer 82. In other words, if a portion of the fluorescent material layer 82 is still exposed after the two outer frames 1 are properly assembled, it can be clearly seen through the fluorescent material layer 82 that the frame is not properly secured, facilitating adjustment. In this way, the fluorescent material layer 82 not only makes it easy for workers to identify whether the outer frames 1 are properly assembled, but also facilitates identification by workers in low-light conditions.

[0034] To facilitate understanding of how multiple outer frames 1 are assembled in this application, the following description uses the assembly of two outer frames 1 as an example: The user first pulls the limiting rod 85 inward using the operating block 81, then assembles the outer frames 1, allowing the connecting strip 4 to slide into the connecting groove 6. Then, the operating block 81 is reset by the tension of the tension spring 83. During this process, the operating block 81 presses the connecting shaft 86 to reset, and the connecting shaft 86 drives the limiting rod 85 to insert into the limiting port 7, thus limiting the connecting strip 4 and maintaining a stable connection between the outer frames 1, allowing multiple sets of fans 2 to complete the assembly operation. Furthermore, this method facilitates the coordinated operation of multiple sets of fans 2, and this operation method allows for assembly and use on-site. Assembly is convenient and quick, requiring no professional personnel, thus greatly improving operational convenience. The disassembly of the fans 2 also facilitates transportation operations.

[0035] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a heat exchange unit. This heat exchange unit can be used independently, or multiple heat exchange units can be spliced ​​together to form a wind wall device.

[0036] Specifically, the heat exchange unit includes at least an outer frame 1, in which a fan 2 is installed; two spaced connecting strips 4 are fixedly connected to the top and left side of the outer frame 1, and each connecting strip 4 has a limiting port 7; two connecting grooves 6 are provided on the right side and bottom of the outer frame 1, and the two connecting grooves 6 are adapted to the two connecting strips 4 so that two adjacent outer frames 1 are spliced ​​together with the connecting strips 4 through the connecting grooves 6; a limiting structure 8 is provided at the lower right corner of the outer frame 1, and when two adjacent outer frames 1 are spliced ​​together with the connecting strips 4 through the connecting grooves 6, the limiting structure 8 of one outer frame 1 is inserted into the limiting port 7 of the other outer frame 1.

[0037] It should be noted that the specific structures of the outer frame 1, connecting strip 4, connecting groove 6 and limiting structure 8 can be referred to the above content, and will not be repeated here.

[0038] Therefore, the technical solution provided in this application allows multiple outer frames to be combined and multiple sets of fans to be used together through the sliding fit of connecting strips and connecting grooves. Secondly, the limiting structure maintains the stability of the connection between the outer frames, preventing them from easily detaching after assembly and ensuring the connection stability between multiple sets of fans. This makes the assembly method more convenient and faster, accelerating the work process. Furthermore, this method facilitates the addition and removal of fans, improving the convenience of actual operation, and eliminates the need for professional personnel for assembly. Additionally, the device is detachable, facilitating storage and transportation.

[0039] Furthermore, by fixing a fluorescent material layer to the operating block, the accuracy of the assembly between the two outer frames can be determined by whether the fluorescent material layer is obscured by the edge. If a portion of the fluorescent material layer is exposed, it clearly indicates any incomplete fixing, facilitating adjustments. In this way, the fluorescent material layer allows workers to easily identify whether the outer frames are properly assembled, and it also facilitates operation of the limiting structure even in low-light conditions.

[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
