[0026] Example
[0027] A fan cooling device, such as Figure 1As shown, the duct 1 includes an air duct 1 with two open ends, a fan assembly unit is arranged inside the duct 1, and the fan assembly unit includes a main fan 2 and a redundant fan 3, which are arranged vertically or horizontally and connected in combination; a filter device 4 is installed at one end of the air outlet of the duct 1. It also includes a control system for controlling the operation of the main fan 2 and the redundant fan 3. The main fan 2 and the redundant fan 3 are interlocked. When one of the fans fails, the control system will start the other fan to run. The control system of the main fan 2 and the redundant fan 3 is the existing technology in this field.
[0028] In this embodiment, the main fan 2 and the redundant fan 3 are arranged vertically. Figure 2 The main fan 2 and the redundant fan 3 have the same structure, both of which include a square housing 201 with two open ends. Figure 3 As shown, a bracket 204 is welded to each of the four inner side walls of the housing 201, and the other end of the bracket 204 is bolted to the motor 202. The motor 202 can use a 380V or 220V power supply as needed, and a plurality of fan blades 203 are provided on the output shaft of the motor 202. The upper and lower ends of the housings of the main fan 2 and the redundant fan 3 are fixedly connected to the wind tube 1 by bolts to reduce the vibration of the fan and facilitate inspection and maintenance. The bottom end of the housing of the main fan 2 is fixed to the top end of the housing of the redundant fan 3 by bolts, and an elastic pad 5 is placed between the two to avoid resonance between the two fans during operation, which causes the vibration of the running fan to deteriorate, thereby affecting the safe and stable operation of the cooling system.
[0029] The filter device 4 includes a support frame 401 of a frame structure, such as Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of support legs 406 are fixed to the bottom of the support frame 401, and the support legs 406 are fixed to one end of the air outlet of the air duct 1 by bolts. Mounting grooves 402 are provided on opposite sides of the support frame 401, and the filter screen 403 is inserted into the mounting grooves 402. Figure 5 As shown, elastic rings 404 are fixed on two opposite side walls of the outer frame of the filter 403, and columns 405 are fixed at the four corners of the top of the support frame 401, and the elastic rings 404 are sleeved on the columns 405. In order to prevent the elastic ring 404 from falling off the column 405, a limit plate larger than the diameter of the column 405 is fixed on the top of the column 405. The filter device 4 is open on all sides, and the air outlet is unobstructed. The filter 403 on the top can prevent debris from falling into the air duct 1, avoiding the main fan 2, the redundant fan 3 and the system equipment from affecting it. The installation groove 402 is arranged to facilitate the removal of the filter 403, and to facilitate the cleaning or replacement of the filter 403. The elastic ring 404 arranged on the outer frame of the filter 403 makes the installation of the filter 403 more convenient and labor-saving, and also plays a fixing role on the filter 403.
[0030] An inspection port is provided on the side wall of the wind duct 1, and a sealing door 6 is rotatably connected to the inspection port. The inspection port is provided to facilitate the inspection of the main fan 2 and the redundant fan 3. There is no need to disassemble the entire wind duct 1 from the main equipment cabinet. It is only necessary to open the sealing door 6 and disassemble the fan that needs to be inspected or replaced. In order to ensure the sealing of the wind duct 1, sealing strips are provided on all sides of the sealing door 6. A rectangular buckle 7 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the wind duct 1, and a rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the sealing door 6. A limit block 601 is fixed on the rotating shaft. When in use, the buckle 7 is directly put on the limit block 601, and then the limit block 601 is rotated 180° to the left or right. The length of the limit block 601 after rotation is greater than the width of the buckle 7, and the buckle 7 is limited, thereby realizing the locking of the sealing door 6.
[0031] The system main equipment can be installed with multiple air ducts as needed. The air ducts are equipped with main fans and redundant fans. The shape of the air duct can be designed to be square or cylindrical, and the fan casing can be designed to be square or cylindrical according to the shape of the air duct.
[0032] The fan cooling device provided by the utility model has a main fan and a redundant fan as backup for each other. They can be directly switched during normal operation to change the operation mode of the cooling fan. In the event of a failure of the main fan, the redundant fan can be automatically interlocked and started to ensure the safe and stable operation of the main equipment. The two cooling fans are modularly designed and can be arranged vertically or horizontally. The installation method is simple and flexible, and the configuration of the cabinet (box) of the main equipment can be optimized. It has the advantages of flexible operation mode, safety and reliability, and is more conducive to achieving the goal of intelligent and smart sites.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents.
