Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power equipment cabinet structure technology, and in particular to a cabinet base with an integrated dustproof structure and an outdoor cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] As a core energy conversion device, the energy storage converter typically uses a steel structure for its cabinet, mainly composed of basic components such as a frame, cover plate, and base. To improve heat dissipation efficiency, the cabinet interior is divided into two independent chambers by sheet metal parts. The main circuit section is isolated to form an independent air duct for efficient air cooling. In this air duct, cool air enters from the air inlet at the top of the cabinet, flows through the heat-generating components, becomes hot air, and is finally discharged from the air outlet at the bottom. To promote airflow circulation, ventilation holes are provided on the bottom plate of the cabinet at positions corresponding to heat-generating components such as reactors.

[0003] When such server racks are used in outdoor environments, they need to withstand harsh conditions such as sandstorms and rain. Dustproof cotton is typically installed at the air outlets to block foreign objects, and regular maintenance and replacement are required. However, in existing technology, heavy components such as reactors are often installed above the internal ventilation holes of the rack, and the space constraints of the sheet metal structure make it difficult to integrate the dustproof structure inside the rack. Therefore, the dustproof cotton is often forced to be placed on the outside of the base. This arrangement not only increases the difficulty of maintenance and disassembly, but also makes the dustproof cotton susceptible to performance degradation due to long-term exposure to the external environment and weather conditions. This reduces the dustproof effect, allowing dust and foreign objects to enter the rack, damaging critical components and shortening the overall lifespan of the equipment.

[0004] In summary, the main drawbacks of the existing technology are: the air outlet of the independent air duct is directly opened on the base plate, the dustproof structure is external, and maintenance requires frequent disassembly of relevant components of the base, which is inconvenient and easily introduces secondary pollution; at the same time, the external dustproof cotton is prone to dust accumulation and blockage, requiring frequent replacement, which increases the operation and maintenance costs.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide a cabinet base and outdoor cabinet with an integrated dustproof structure to improve dustproof effect and cabinet operation reliability has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a cabinet base and outdoor cabinet with an integrated dustproof structure, so as to improve the dustproof effect and the reliability of cabinet operation.

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a cabinet base with an integrated dustproof structure, comprising: A grid-shaped frame is provided with a central longitudinal beam, two side longitudinal beams, a central transverse beam, and two side transverse beams; the two side longitudinal beams are arranged parallel to each other on the left and right sides of the central longitudinal beam; the two side transverse beams are arranged parallel to each other on the front and rear sides of the central transverse beam; the central longitudinal beam and the central transverse beam are perpendicular to each other; all the side longitudinal beams and side transverse beams are connected to form a rectangle. Two dustproof components are attached to the central crossbeam, central longitudinal beam, and side crossbeam on three sides respectively, located behind the central crossbeam, and connected to the central crossbeam and the rear side crossbeam.

[0008] Furthermore, the central longitudinal beam is provided with three crossbeam connection notches and three longitudinal beam reinforcing ribs; The central longitudinal beam is connected to the central crossbeam and the side crossbeams through three crossbeam connection notches.

[0009] Furthermore, the central crossbeam has a U-shaped structure, with a first longitudinal beam connection notch on each of the left and right sides, and two L-shaped brackets in the middle of the side, with a first dustproof component mounting hole on each of the two sides of each L-shaped bracket. The two ends of the central crossbeam are connected to a longitudinal beam on one side through a notch in the first longitudinal beam.

[0010] Furthermore, the side crossbeam has a U-shaped structure, with a second longitudinal beam connection notch on each of the left and right sides. The inward side has four second dustproof component mounting holes corresponding to the first dustproof component mounting holes, and the outward side has four maintenance notches corresponding to the second dustproof component mounting holes. The two ends of the side crossbeam are connected to one side longitudinal beam through the connecting notch of the second longitudinal beam.

[0011] Furthermore, the dustproof component includes: A dustproof cotton mounting bracket is provided with several ventilation holes, several crossbeam mounting holes, and several dustproof reinforcing ribs; the crossbeam mounting holes are located on the front and rear sides of the dustproof cotton mounting bracket. A piece of dustproof cotton is installed on the dustproof cotton mounting bracket; Several pins are used to install the dustproof component on the central crossbeam and the side crossbeams, respectively, by passing through the crossbeam mounting holes.

[0012] Secondly, the present invention provides an outdoor cabinet with an integrated dustproof structure, comprising: A server rack base; A cabinet frame is located at the top of the cabinet base; A rain cover is provided at the top of the cabinet frame; Two side panels are located on the left and right sides of the cabinet frame; Two door panels are located on the front and rear sides of the cabinet frame and are connected to the cabinet frame for opening and closing.

[0013] The advantages of this invention are: 1. By integrating the dustproof components into the grid-shaped frame of the cabinet base, transforming them from external to internal, the dustproof effect and cabinet operational reliability are significantly improved. On the one hand, the internal structure prevents the dustproof components from being directly exposed to the harsh outdoor environment, slowing down aging and clogging, and ensuring long-lasting and stable dustproof performance. On the other hand, the maintenance gaps on the side beams enable convenient maintenance, which greatly simplifies operation, avoids secondary pollution that may be introduced during maintenance, and reduces maintenance frequency and costs. Ultimately, this structural innovation provides more reliable protection for key components inside the cabinet, forming a systematic solution that greatly improves the dustproof effect and cabinet operational reliability.

[0014] 2. The design adopts a grid-shaped frame, including a reasonable layout of central longitudinal beams, side longitudinal beams, central cross beams, and side cross beams, forming a rigid rectangular structure. This design effectively distributes the load on the cabinet, enhances the base's resistance to deformation and overall stability, and is particularly suitable for the support needs of outdoor cabinets. It can withstand mechanical stress in harsh environments and extend its service life.

[0015] 3. By directly integrating two dustproof components on the base, fitting snugly against the central crossbeam, central longitudinal beam, and side crossbeams, a tight dustproof barrier is formed. This integrated design effectively prevents dust from entering the cabinet from the bottom, reducing the risk of contamination and failure of internal equipment, improving the reliability and maintenance intervals of the cabinet, and is especially suitable for outdoor or dusty environments.

[0016] 4. The central longitudinal beam is equipped with a crossbeam connection notch. The central crossbeam and the side crossbeams adopt a U-shaped structure and are equipped with longitudinal beam connection notches, which enables the components to be quickly aligned and fixed, simplifying the assembly process. The design of the maintenance notch and dustproof component mounting holes on the side crossbeams facilitates daily inspection, cleaning or replacement of dustproof components, improving the convenience and efficiency of use.

[0017] 5. The central and side crossbeams adopt a U-shaped structure, which reduces material usage and lowers overall weight and cost while ensuring sufficient structural strength; the design of the longitudinal beam reinforcing ribs further enhances the rigidity of key parts, improves the durability of the base, and achieves a balance between lightweight and high performance.

[0018] 6. The dustproof components, including dustproof cotton mounting brackets, dustproof cotton, and pins, adopt a modular design, which allows the dustproof components to be produced, installed, and replaced independently. This standardized component simplifies the manufacturing process, reduces production and maintenance costs, and facilitates inventory management and mass application, thereby improving overall economic efficiency.

[0019] 7. Combining the dustproof design of the cabinet base with the overall structure of the outdoor cabinet (including rain cover, side panels and door panels), this technical solution provides comprehensive protection; the integration of the dustproof base with the cabinet frame ensures that the cabinet can effectively prevent dust and rain in the outdoor environment, protect the internal equipment from environmental corrosion, thereby extending the equipment life and reducing operation and maintenance costs.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] The overall concept of the technical solution in this application embodiment is as follows: The built-in structure prevents the dustproof component 2 from being directly exposed to the harsh outdoor environment, slows down aging and clogging, and ensures long-lasting and stable dustproof performance; the maintenance gap 143 on the side beam 14 enables convenient maintenance, which simplifies operation, avoids secondary pollution that may be introduced during maintenance, and reduces maintenance frequency and cost. Ultimately, this structural innovation provides more reliable protection for key components inside the cabinet.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the cabinet base 100 with an integrated dustproof structure according to the present invention includes: A grid-shaped frame 1 is provided with a central longitudinal beam 11, two side longitudinal beams 12, a central transverse beam 13, and two side transverse beams 14. The two side longitudinal beams 12 are arranged parallel to each other on the left and right sides of the central longitudinal beam 11. The two side transverse beams 14 are arranged parallel to each other on the front and rear sides of the central transverse beam 13. The central longitudinal beam 11 and the central transverse beam 13 are perpendicular to each other. The side longitudinal beams 12 and the side transverse beams 14 are connected to form a rectangle. This grid-shaped structure not only provides uniform support for the cabinet frame 201 above and distributes the load, but the partitions formed inside also lay the foundation for the reasonable layout and installation of the subsequent dustproof components 2.

[0032] Two dustproof components 2 are respectively attached to the central crossbeam 13, the central longitudinal beam 11 and the side crossbeam 14 on three sides, located behind the central crossbeam 13 and connected to the central crossbeam 13 and the rear side crossbeam 14.

[0033] The central longitudinal beam 11 is provided with three crossbeam connection notches 111 and three longitudinal beam reinforcing ribs 112 to significantly enhance its bending resistance and improve the rigidity of the entire cabinet base 100. The central longitudinal beam 11 is connected to the central transverse beam 13 and the side transverse beam 14 through three transverse beam connecting notches 111.

[0034] The central crossbeam 13 has a U-shaped structure, and its opening direction can be set according to strength and installation requirements. There is a first longitudinal beam connection notch 131 on the left and right sides respectively, and two L-shaped brackets 132 are provided in the middle of the side. Each L-shaped bracket 132 has a first dustproof component mounting hole 1321 on both sides. The two ends of the central crossbeam 13 are connected to the side longitudinal beam 12 respectively through the first longitudinal beam connecting notch 131.

[0035] The side beam 14 has a U-shaped structure, with a second longitudinal beam connection notch 141 on each of the left and right sides. The inward-facing side has four second dustproof component mounting holes 142 corresponding to the first dustproof component mounting holes 1321, and the outward-facing side has four maintenance notches 143 corresponding to the second dustproof component mounting holes 142. The maintenance notches 143 provide an operating channel for maintaining (such as inspecting, cleaning, or replacing) the built-in dustproof component 2 from the outside. The two ends of the side crossbeam 14 are connected to the side longitudinal beam 12 respectively through the second longitudinal beam connection notch 141.

[0036] The dustproof component 2 includes: A dustproof cotton mounting bracket 21 is provided with several ventilation holes 211, several crossbeam mounting holes 212, and several dustproof reinforcing ribs 213; the crossbeam mounting holes 212 are located on the front and rear sides of the dustproof cotton mounting bracket 21; the dustproof cotton mounting bracket 21 is a supporting structure, the ventilation holes 211 are used to ensure that airflow can pass smoothly; the dustproof reinforcing ribs 213 are used to increase its rigidity and prevent deformation under wind pressure or during maintenance; A piece of dustproof cotton 22 is installed on the dustproof cotton mounting bracket 21. The dustproof cotton 22 is a piece of filter material (such as non-woven fabric, foam cotton, etc.), whose shape matches the dustproof cotton mounting bracket 21, and is fixedly installed on the dustproof cotton mounting bracket 21 by means of buckles (not shown) or pressure strips (not shown). Several pins 23 pass through a beam mounting hole 212 to install the dustproof component 2 on the central beam 13 and the side beam 14.

[0037] A preferred embodiment of the outdoor cabinet 200 with an integrated dustproof structure according to the present invention includes: One rack base costs 100; A cabinet frame 201 is located at the top of the cabinet base 100; A rain cover 202 is provided at the top of the cabinet frame 201 to prevent rainwater from entering from the top; Two side panels 203 are located on the left and right sides of the cabinet frame 201, and are usually fixed. Two door panels 204 are located on the front and rear sides of the cabinet frame 201 and are connected to the cabinet frame 201 for opening and closing.

[0038] Working principle of this invention: When the outdoor cabinet 200 is in operation, the cabinet base 100 serves as the basic component, the cabinet frame 201 is located at the top of the cabinet base 100, and the rain cover 202, side panels 203, and door panel 204 form a sealed outer shell, providing comprehensive protection. Airflow enters from the upper air inlet (not shown) of the outdoor cabinet 200, flows through the internal heating components (not shown), becomes hot air, and finally exits from below the cabinet base 100. Because the dustproof component 2 is built into the cabinet base 100, it avoids direct exposure to harsh outdoor environments such as sand and rain, slows down the aging and clogging of the dustproof cotton 22, and ensures long-lasting dustproof performance.

[0039] In summary, the advantages of this invention are as follows: 1. By integrating the dustproof components into the grid-shaped frame of the cabinet base, transforming them from external to internal, the dustproof effect and cabinet operational reliability are significantly improved. On the one hand, the internal structure prevents the dustproof components from being directly exposed to the harsh outdoor environment, slowing down aging and clogging, and ensuring long-lasting and stable dustproof performance. On the other hand, the maintenance gaps on the side beams enable convenient maintenance, which greatly simplifies operation, avoids secondary pollution that may be introduced during maintenance, and reduces maintenance frequency and costs. Ultimately, this structural innovation provides more reliable protection for key components inside the cabinet, forming a systematic solution that greatly improves the dustproof effect and cabinet operational reliability.

It can withstand mechanical stress in harsh environments and extend its service life.

[0041] 3.

This integrated design effectively prevents dust from entering the cabinet from the bottom, reducing the risk of contamination and failure of internal equipment, improving the reliability and maintenance intervals of the cabinet, and is especially suitable for outdoor or dusty environments.

[0042] 4. The central longitudinal beam is equipped with a crossbeam connection notch. The central crossbeam and the side crossbeams adopt a U-shaped structure and are equipped with longitudinal beam connection notches, which enables the components to be quickly aligned and fixed, simplifying the assembly process. The design of the maintenance notch and dustproof component mounting holes on the side crossbeams facilitates daily inspection, cleaning or replacement of dustproof components, improving the convenience and efficiency of use.

[0043] 5. The central and side crossbeams adopt a U-shaped structure, which reduces material usage and lowers overall weight and cost while ensuring sufficient structural strength; the design of the longitudinal beam reinforcing ribs further enhances the rigidity of key parts, improves the durability of the base, and achieves a balance between lightweight and high performance.
