[0027] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and drawings.

[0028] Embodiment 1:

[0029] See Figure 1-10 As shown, a server cabinet includes a cabinet body 1, and the cabinet body 1 is provided with an installation U position 11 for loading a removable server 2. In specific use, the server 2 is inserted and positioned in the installation U position 11 of the cabinet body 1, and the server 2 can be removed from the installation U position 11 at a later stage to ensure the normal use and maintenance of the server 2.

[0030] In order to improve the assembly and use efficiency of the server 2, the utility model also makes the following improvements: the cabinet 1 is provided with a power socket 3 connected to the power supply, and the power socket 3 is also placed in the installation U position 11; the rear end of the server 2 is provided with a power plug 4, and after the server 2 is installed in the installation U position 11, the power plug 4 and the power socket 3 are plugged and conductive. When the server 2 is assembled with the cabinet 1, after the server 2 is directly inserted and positioned in the installation U position 11 of the cabinet 1, the power plug 4 at the rear end of the server 2 is plugged and conductive with the power socket 3, so as to complete the power connection, and the assembly is very simple and efficient. Since the power plug 4 is directly arranged at the rear end of the server 2, there is no power cord between them, the structure is simpler, the cost is lower, and less space is required. In the later stage, there will be no problems such as the power cord being exposed and blocking the front end of the server, affecting the operation of the server, and there will be no messy power cord phenomenon, which ensures the neatness of the entire assembly structure. At the same time, there is no need to manually insert the plug with the power cord into the socket of the cabinet 1 after the server 2 is installed in the cabinet 1, simplifying the assembly steps.

[0031] Among them, the power socket 3 is strip-shaped and is vertically distributed in the cabinet 1, and is also placed at the rear end of each installation U position 11. That is to say, the power socket 3 serves all servers 2 inserted in the installation U position 11, that is, when any server 2 is installed in any installation U position 11, the power plug 4 of the server 2 is inserted into the power socket 3 to achieve power conduction.

[0032] The power socket 3 includes an insulating seat 31 and a positive power plate 32 and a negative power plate 33 fixed in the insulating seat 31 and distributed longitudinally. The positive power plate 32 and the negative power plate 33 pass through the installation U position 11 from top to bottom and penetrate all the installation U positions 11. The power plug 4 has a positive terminal 41 and a negative terminal 42. When the power plug 4 is plugged into the power socket 3, the positive terminal 41 and the negative terminal 42 are in contact with the positive power plate 32 and the negative power plate 33 respectively, and the assembly structure is very simple.

[0033] There are multiple positive terminals 41, which are spaced apart in a row or a column; there are multiple negative terminals 42, which are spaced apart in a row or a column, thereby ensuring the stability of the power plug 4 and the power socket 3, improving the plugging and unplugging force, and ensuring the reliability of power supply.

[0034] In this embodiment, the front end of the insulating seat 31 is provided with a first slot 311 and a second slot 312 which are vertically spaced apart. The positive power plate 32 is installed in the first slot 311, and the negative power plate 33 is installed in the second slot 312, and penetrates all the installation U positions 11. Correspondingly, the front end of the power plug 4 has a first pair of plugs 43 and a second pair of plugs 44 which are spaced apart and respectively adapted to the first slot 311 and the second slot 312. The positive terminal 41 is exposed on the side of the first pair of plugs 43, and the negative terminal 42 is exposed on the side of the second pair of plugs 44. When the power plug 4 is plugged into the power socket 3, the first pair of plugs 43 and the second pair of plugs 44 are respectively inserted into the first slot 311 and the second slot 312, and the positive terminal 41 and the negative terminal 42 are respectively in contact with the positive power plate 32 and the negative power plate 33, thereby realizing power conduction.

[0035] The other side of the first pair of plug-in parts 43 opposite to the positive terminal 41 is also provided with a first elastic arm 45 for enhancing the plugging and extraction force. After the first pair of plug-in parts 43 are inserted into the first slot 311, the first elastic arm 45 is pressed and contacted with the first slot 311, thereby enhancing the plugging and extraction force; the other side of the second pair of plug-in parts 44 opposite to the negative terminal 42 is also provided with a second elastic arm 46 for enhancing the plugging and extraction force. After the second pair of plug-in parts 44 are inserted into the second slot 312, the second elastic arm 46 is pressed and contacted with the second slot 312, thereby enhancing the plugging and extraction force, thereby ensuring that the power plug 4 and the power socket 3 are stably plugged in and not easy to be separated, thereby improving the reliability of power-on.

[0036] The ends of the positive terminal 41 and the negative terminal 42 are both configured to be arc-shaped and can generate elastic deformation, thereby ensuring that the positive terminal 41 and the negative terminal 42 form elastic pressing contact with the positive power plate 32 and the negative power plate 33 respectively, thereby ensuring the stability of the contact.

[0037] A positioning sleeve 111 is provided at the rear side of the installation U position 11, and a positioning column 21 is also provided at the rear end of the server 2. The positioning column 21 is embedded in the positioning sleeve 111, thereby ensuring that the server 2 is more stably assembled in the installation U position 11, which can enhance the firmness of the assembly structure.

[0038] The first slot 311 is provided with first guiding bevels 301 on both sides of the port; correspondingly, the first pair of inserting parts 43 are provided with first inclined guiding surfaces 401 adapted to the first guiding bevels 301 on both sides of the end, which can ensure that the first pair of inserting parts 43 can be inserted into the first slot 311 more quickly and have a certain tolerance; the second slot 312 is provided with second guiding bevels 302 on both sides of the port; correspondingly, the second pair of inserting parts 44 are provided with second inclined guiding surfaces 402 adapted to the second guiding bevels 302 on both sides of the end, which can ensure that the second pair of inserting parts 44 can be inserted into the second slot 312 more quickly and have a certain tolerance, thereby improving the efficiency and smoothness of assembly.

[0039] The front end of the power positive plate 32 is provided with a concave first conductive groove 321, and the front end of the power negative plate 33 is provided with a concave second conductive groove 331. The first conductive groove 321 and the second conductive groove 331 have a certain blocking effect, which can prevent the first pair of inserting parts 43 and the second pair of inserting parts 44 from being inserted too far.

[0040] The positive power plate 32 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 322 penetrating through the two side surfaces, and the negative power plate 33 is provided with a plurality of second through holes 332 penetrating through the two side surfaces and corresponding to the first through holes 322. A plurality of insulating screws are spirally fixed in the insulating seat 31, and the insulating screws are fastened with the insulating nuts 303 after passing through the first through holes 322 and the second through holes 332. The heads of the insulating screws press the negative power plate 33, and the insulating nuts 303 press the positive power plate 32, thereby ensuring that the positive power plate 32 and the negative power plate 33 are stably installed in the insulating seat 31.

[0041] In summary, when the server 2 is assembled with the cabinet 1, the server 2 is directly inserted and positioned in the installation U position 11 of the cabinet 1, and the power plug 4 at the rear end of the server 2 is plugged into the power socket 3 and conducts electricity, thereby completing the power connection. The assembly is very simple and the efficiency is extremely high. Since the power plug 4 is directly set at the rear end of the server 2, there is no power cord in between, the structure is simpler, the cost is lower, and less space is required. In the later stage, there will be no problems such as the power cord being exposed and blocking the front end of the server, affecting the operation of the server, and there will be no messy power cord phenomenon, ensuring the neatness of the entire assembly structure. At the same time, there is no need to manually insert the plug with the power cord into the socket of the cabinet 1 after the server 2 is installed in the cabinet 1, simplifying the assembly steps.

[0042] Embodiment 2:

[0043] The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that: the second embodiment no longer designs two first slots 311 and second slots 312 that are spaced apart, but a slot is provided at the front end of the insulating seat 31, and the positive power plate 32 and the negative power plate 33 are respectively installed on the inner walls on both sides of the first slot 311; correspondingly, the second embodiment no longer designs two first plug-in parts 43 and second plug-in parts 44 that are spaced apart, but a plug-in part with slot adaptability is provided at the front end of the power plug 4, and the positive terminal 41 and the negative terminal 42 are respectively exposed on the two sides of the plug-in part. When the plug-in part is inserted into the slot, the positive terminal 41 and the negative terminal 42 are respectively in contact with the positive power plate 32 and the negative power plate 33, and the purpose of conduction can also be achieved, achieving the same technical effect as the first embodiment.
