[0027] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. Now, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, a preferred embodiment of the present utility model is described in detail.

[0028] The present utility model embodiment provides a cloud storage device, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cloud storage device includes a shell 1, a first hard disk 2 and a heat dissipation component 3: a hard disk assembly space 11 is provided in the shell 1, the first hard disk 2 and the heat dissipation component 3 are assembled in the hard disk assembly space 11, the heat dissipation component 3 includes a turbofan 31, a first air inlet 121 is provided at the bottom of the shell 1 corresponding to the air inlet of the turbofan 31, and a first air outlet 122 is provided, and the air outlet of the turbofan 31 blows toward the first air outlet 122; an air guide slope 111 is provided in the hard disk assembly space 11 corresponding to the position of the first air outlet 122, which guides the air outlet of the first air outlet 122 to the outside of the bottom of the shell 1.

[0029] The cloud storage device of the utility model is provided with a hard disk assembly space 11 at the bottom of the housing 1. The hard disk assembly space 11 is used as a dedicated assembly space for the first hard disk 2, and a dedicated heat dissipation component 3 is correspondingly provided. The heat is blown away by the correspondingly provided turbo fan 31, so that the first hard disk 2 can be dissipated more effectively in a small space. In the hard disk assembly space 11, a wind guide slope 111 is provided corresponding to the position of the first air outlet 122 to guide the air outlet of the first air outlet 122 to the outside of the bottom of the housing 1. The air outlet of the first air outlet 122 flows toward the outside of the bottom of the housing 1 under the guidance of the wind guide slope 111, so that the hot air blown out of the first air outlet 122 is not easily sucked back into the hard disk assembly space 11 by the first air inlet 121 at the bottom, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect. And because the air outlet flows toward the outside of the bottom under the guidance of the wind guide slope 111, it can drive the external air to flow quickly toward the first air inlet 121 at the bottom, accelerate the air intake, and improve the heat dissipation effect, and the heat dissipation effect of the cloud storage device is good.

[0030] Specifically, the hard disk assembly space 11 is arranged at the bottom of the housing 1. The first hard disk 2 may be a solid-state drive (SSD), and a plurality of first hard disks 2 may be arranged and installed side by side in the hard disk assembly space 11, for example, four first hard disks 2 are arranged side by side.

[0031] Specifically, an airflow blocking edge is provided between the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122 on the bottom of the shell 1, and the airflow blocking edge is used to block the air flow between the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122. In this solution, an airflow blocking edge is further provided between the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122 for blocking, which can reduce the possibility that the hot air from the first air outlet 122 is sucked back to the first air inlet 121. The airflow blocking edge is a blocking edge with a certain height formed on the bottom surface of the shell 1. Specifically, when the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122 are provided on the cover plate 12 described below, the airflow blocking edge is also provided on the cover plate 12 accordingly.

[0032] The cloud storage device further includes a main control circuit board, which is installed in the housing 1. Figure 6As shown, the main control circuit board is provided with an insertion port 4. A first opening 112 that passes through the interior of the housing 1 is provided in the hard disk assembly space 11, and the insertion port 4 is inserted into the first opening 112 from the interior of the housing 1, and the connection end of the first hard disk 2 is inserted into the insertion port 4. The insertion port 423 can be, for example, an M.2 interface. The first hard disk 2 is inserted into the insertion port 4 to achieve its installation and use. The other end of the first hard disk 2 can be fixed by screws. Further, a spacing space 5 is formed at the bottom of the housing 1, and the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122 are located at the spacing space 5, so that the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122 are spaced from the placement surface of the cloud storage device. The spacing space 5 facilitates the circulation of air at the bottom after the cloud storage device is placed on the placement surface, ensuring that air can enter the hard disk assembly space 11 from the first air inlet 121, and blow out from the first air outlet 122. Specifically, a foot pad 13 can be provided at the bottom of the housing 1 to form the spacing space 5, or the spacing space 5 can be formed by a bottom recess. When the bottom is concave, the concave edge can be provided with a gap corresponding to the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122 for air flow.

[0033] Specifically, the heat dissipation assembly 3 further includes a heat dissipation element 32, which is disposed corresponding to the first hard disk 2, and the air discharged by the turbo fan 31 blows through the heat dissipation element 32. The heat dissipation element 32 can quickly take away the heat.

[0034] The wind guiding slope 111 is an arc-shaped slope arranged on the side of the hard disk assembly space 11. The arc-shaped slope is conducive to smoothly and effectively guiding the airflow blown out by the turbofan 31 to the first air outlet 122 for blowing out, reducing wind resistance, reducing noise, and improving air guiding efficiency. The upper edge of the arc-shaped slope is arranged close to the first air outlet 122, and the lower edge is arranged close to the heat sink 32. In this solution, the two side edges of the arc-shaped slope are respectively close to the docking first air outlet 122 and the heat sink 32, and the airflow passing through the heat sink 32 can be directly guided to the first air outlet 122 by the arc-shaped slope, reducing the flow of airflow to the surroundings.

[0035] The heat sink 32 includes a mounting plate 321 and heat sink fins 322 connected to each other. The turbofan 31 is mounted on the mounting plate 321. The first air outlet 122 of the turbofan 31 is arranged corresponding to the heat sink fins 322, and the heat sink fins 322 are arranged corresponding to the first air outlet 122. In addition to being a heat dissipation component, the heat sink 32 also provides an installation position for the turbofan 31. The first air outlet 122 of the turbofan 31 is arranged corresponding to the heat sink fins 322, and the heat sink fins 322 are arranged corresponding to the first air outlet 122, so that the heat of the heat sink fins 322 can be quickly taken away from the first air outlet 122. Specifically, the heat sink fins 322 are close to the wind guide slope 111, and the mounting plate 321 is far away from the wind guide slope 111. The heat sink fins 322, as the main heat dissipation part of the heat sink 32, are arranged close to the wind guide slope 111, so that the heat of the heat sink fins 322 can be quickly taken away through the wind guide slope 111 and the first air outlet 122. Two turbo fans 31 are provided, and both turbo fans 31 are mounted on the mounting plate 321 . Two first air inlets 121 are provided corresponding to the two turbo fans 31 , so as to improve the heat dissipation effect.

[0036] Further, a heat conducting member 8 is attached to the first hard disk 2, and the heat sink 32 is attached to the heat conducting member 8. The heat conducting member 8 can increase the heat transfer speed on the first hard disk 2, and the heat dissipation effect is better. The heat conducting member 8 can be a heat conductive film.

[0037] Furthermore, if Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the housing 1 includes a cover plate 12, which is detachably covered on the hard disk assembly space 11; the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 122 are arranged on the cover plate 12. The detachable cover plate 12 is arranged so that the hard disk assembly space 11 can be inspected and disassembled at any time for the heat dissipation component 3 and the first hard disk 2. The cover plate 12 can be fixedly installed on the hard disk assembly space 11 by screws to achieve its detachable installation. Specifically, the heat sink 32 is installed on the inner side of the cover plate 12, and the turbo fan 31 and the heat sink 32 are installed on the cover plate 12 to form a modular structure. When the cover plate 12 is opened, the turbo fan 31 and the heat sink 32 can be removed at the same time to expose the first hard disk 2, and the disassembly and inspection of the first hard disk 2 are convenient. A connecting pin 6 can be arranged on the main control circuit board, and the connecting pin 6 is inserted into the through hole in the hard disk assembly space 11. A connecting circuit board 7 connected to the turbo fan 31 through a socket and a plug is installed on the inner side of the cover plate 12, and a connecting terminal 71 is arranged on the connecting circuit board 7 corresponding to the connecting pin 6. When the cover plate 12 is covered on the hard disk assembly space 11 , the connecting pin 6 is connected to the connecting terminal 71 , so that the turbo fan 31 is powered on and controlled.
