Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of equipment heat dissipation, and in particular to a fan device and an equipment housing. Background Art

[0002] In modern technology equipment, cabinets are an important part of carrying and protecting key equipment, so the design and maintenance of their cooling systems are particularly critical. At present, most cabinet cooling systems use fan components to effectively cool internal equipment, but in actual use, since cabinets are often placed against the wall, the limited back space brings certain difficulties to maintenance work.

[0003] Since the fan assembly is usually installed at the back of the cabinet, it means that during the maintenance process, the cabinet needs to be moved or dismantled to obtain sufficient space for maintenance, which not only increases the complexity of maintenance, but also greatly prolongs the time required for maintenance, reduces maintenance efficiency, and increases maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problem that the fan assembly at the back of the cabinet is difficult to repair, the present application provides a fan device and an equipment housing.

[0005] The fan device and the device housing provided in the present application adopt the following technical solutions:

[0006] A fan device comprises: a plurality of fan elements;

[0007] A rotating member, two adjacent fan members are connected by the rotating member; a plurality of the fan members can be arranged in a curve.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, during the installation process, a plurality of fan parts are connected in sequence using a rotating part, and after the assembly is completed, the adjacent fan parts can rotate relative to each other; when maintenance is required, the fan parts are pulled out of the equipment. At this time, since the adjacent fan parts rotate relative to each other, and a plurality of fan parts can form a curved arrangement, the movement of the fan device in a limited space can be realized, so that the fan part that needs to be repaired is conveniently obtained, without moving the entire device or performing complicated disassembly, and maintenance space and installation space are saved, making the fan device more compact and convenient to install; with this design, maintenance personnel can perform back maintenance more easily, reduce the workload and risks during the maintenance process, make back maintenance more convenient, and solve the problem that the fan device is set against the wall and cannot be directly repaired from the back, while saving the time and cost required for maintenance, and improving the flexibility and operability of maintenance operations.

[0009] In a specific possible implementation manner, the fan member includes a fan housing, and two adjacent fan housings are rotatably connected via the rotating member.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, adjacent fan casings are directly connected through rotating parts, which reduces the number of connecting parts and the possibility of loosening, thereby improving the stability and durability of the entire fan device. In addition, this design does not require an additional connecting structure. This design can save space and is suitable for occasions where space is limited or a compact layout is required. In addition, the direct rotating connection of the fan casing simplifies the maintenance and installation process. When the fan needs to be repaired or replaced, it is only necessary to unfasten the connection between the adjacent fan casings without the need for complicated disassembly or adjustment.

The design of the inclined structure provides a convenient operation and adjustment method, so that the user can easily control the movement direction of the fan component, thereby making the installation and maintenance of the fan component in different spatial layouts more convenient; when the fan needs to be maintained or replaced, it only needs to be pulled out from the side of the device without disassembling the entire device or operating from the back of the device. In this process, the design of the inclined structure allows multiple fan components to bend and wrap around each other, thereby reducing the space required when pulling out the fan at the back of the device, thereby simplifying the maintenance process and saving the time and labor required for maintenance.

[0015] In a specific possible implementation manner, the rotating member includes a rotating shaft and two connecting plates, one side of the two connecting plates is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft, and the other side of the connecting plates is connected to the fan member.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, one side of the connecting plate is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft, and the other side of the connecting plate is connected to the fan part. The fan part is connected to the rotating shaft through the connecting plate, so that the purpose of the rotating part driving the adjacent fan part to rotate can be achieved. The fan part that needs to be repaired can be easily obtained by simply rotating the adjacent fan parts. There is no need to move the entire device or perform complicated disassembly, which solves the problem that the fan device is set against the wall and cannot be directly repaired from the back.

[0017] In a specific possible implementation manner, it further comprises a pull-out handle assembly, wherein the pull-out handle assembly is arranged on the first or last fan component.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the user needs to adjust the position of the fan, he can simply pull out the pull-out handle and then move the fan part to the desired position. By setting up the pull-out handle assembly and extending it out of the opening, the adjustability and ease of use of the fan part can be improved, providing the user with a better usage experience.

[0019] In a specific possible implementation manner, the pull-out handle assembly is rotatably connected to the fan member.
