Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model specifically relates to a backboard air conditioner, an integrated cabinet and an air conditioning system. Background Art

[0002] In the communication room, the back panel air conditioner is usually hung directly on the server cabinet as a door panel. This will cause the back panel air conditioner to block our view of the server in the cabinet and we cannot see the operation status of the server in the cabinet. Therefore, during maintenance, the back panel air conditioner needs to be turned on to enable maintenance personnel to visually check the server for faults.

[0003] When maintenance personnel turn on the backplane air conditioner to perform a visual inspection of the server, it will cause the following two adverse effects:

[0004] 1. When the back panel air conditioner is turned on for visual inspection, the hot air from the server is not cooled by the back panel air conditioner, but is directly sent to the computer room, which will cause a sudden temperature rise in some areas of the computer room. In addition, maintenance personnel have to face the hot air directly for visual inspection, which makes the body feel less comfortable.

[0005] 2. The refrigerant inlet and outlet pipes of the back panel air conditioner are hard-connected at the door hinge, and the door opening action will affect the life of the door hinge. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a back panel air conditioner, an integrated cabinet and an air conditioning system in view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, which enables the staff to observe the inside of the cabinet through the observation window without opening the back panel, which is beneficial to reducing the life loss of the door shaft and avoiding the hot air inside the cabinet from blowing directly on the staff when the staff is observing, thereby improving the physical comfort of the staff.

[0007] In the first aspect, an embodiment of the utility model provides a back panel air conditioner, which includes a back panel, a heat exchange component and an observation window. The back panel is hinged on the cabinet and is used to open or close the cabinet; the outer side plate of the back panel includes a flat mounting plate, an inclined mounting plate and a connecting plate, and the flat mounting plate, the inclined mounting plate and the connecting plate are sequentially connected in the horizontal direction; the flat mounting plate is arranged close to the hinge position between the back panel and the cabinet, the inclined mounting plate is inclined toward the side close to the inner side plate of the back panel, and the connecting plate is connected to the inner side plate of the back panel. The heat exchange component is arranged on the flat mounting plate and is used to dissipate heat inside the cabinet. The observation window is arranged on the inclined mounting plate; an observation hole is arranged on the inner side plate of the back panel at a position corresponding to the observation window, and the interior of the cabinet can be observed through the observation window and the observation hole.

[0008] In some embodiments, the angle α between the inclined mounting plate and the planar mounting plate satisfies: 26°≤α≤28°.

[0009] In some embodiments, in the horizontal direction, a ratio b of a width of the observation window to a width of the inclined mounting plate satisfies 0.8≤b<1.

[0010] In some embodiments, in the horizontal direction, the length L1 of the observation window satisfies 60 mm ≤ L1 ≤ 100 mm.

[0011] In some embodiments, there are multiple observation windows, and the multiple observation windows are vertically distributed in sequence on the entire inclined mounting plate.

[0012] In some embodiments, the heat exchange assembly includes a heat exchanger and a fan. The heat exchanger is arranged on the inner side panel of the planar mounting plate, and a refrigerant flows inside the heat exchanger. The fan is arranged on the outer side panel of the planar mounting plate, and is used to increase the wind speed near the heat exchanger.

[0013] Therefore, in the back panel air conditioner in the embodiment of the utility model, the outer side plate of the back panel includes a flat mounting plate, a bevel mounting plate and a connecting plate. By setting the heat exchange component on the flat mounting plate of the back panel, the inside of the cabinet can be cooled. By setting the observation window, the staff can observe the inside of the cabinet through the observation window without opening the back panel, which reduces the number of times the cabinet door is opened, which is beneficial to reducing the life loss of the door shaft, and can also avoid the hot air inside the cabinet blowing directly on the staff when the staff observes, which is beneficial to improving the physical comfort of the staff. By making the bevel mounting plate tilt toward the side of the inner side plate close to the back panel, the observation window set thereon can also be tilted. Therefore, in the direction facing the back panel, even if the size of the bevel mounting plate is small, the actual size of the observation window can be made larger, which is beneficial to expanding the area of ​​the observation window; and the tilted observation window can also make one side of the observation window closer to the cabinet, which is beneficial to expanding the visual range of the staff when observing through the observation window.

[0014] In a second aspect, the embodiment of the utility model further provides an integrated cabinet, which includes a cabinet and the back panel air conditioner in the first aspect. The cabinet is placed indoors, and a storage space is formed inside the cabinet. The back panel of the back panel air conditioner is hinged on the cabinet so that the back panel air conditioner forms a cabinet door of the cabinet.

[0015] In some embodiments, the maximum rotation angle β of the back panel air conditioner relative to the cabinet satisfies 120°≤β≤140°.

[0016] In some embodiments, the integrated cabinet further includes a server. The server is disposed in the accommodating space of the cabinet, and a minimum distance L2 between the server and the backboard of the backboard air conditioner is greater than or equal to 100 mm.

[0017] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the utility model further provides an air conditioning system, the air conditioning system comprising the integrated cabinet and an outdoor unit in the second aspect. The outdoor unit is connected to the heat exchange component of the back plate air conditioner in the integrated cabinet through a refrigerant pipeline; the refrigerant can circulate between the outdoor unit and the heat exchange component through the refrigerant pipeline to achieve heat transfer between the outdoor unit and the heat exchange component.

[0018] The integrated cabinet and air conditioning system provided by the embodiment of the utility model have the same beneficial effects as the above-mentioned back panel air conditioner, which will not be repeated here. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0024] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Embodiment 1:

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides a backboard air conditioner, which is applied to a cabinet in a communication room. The backboard air conditioner comprises a backboard 1, a heat exchange component 5 and an observation window 6.

[0027] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4The back panel 1 is hinged on the cabinet 7 and is used to open or close the cabinet 7. The outer side panel of the back panel 1 includes a plane mounting plate 2, an inclined mounting plate 3 and a connecting plate 4, which are sequentially connected in the horizontal direction; the plane mounting plate 2 is arranged close to the hinge position between the back panel 1 and the cabinet 7, the inclined mounting plate 3 is inclined toward the side close to the inner side panel of the back panel 1, and the connecting plate 4 is connected to the inner side panel of the back panel 1.

[0028] Exemplarily, the back panel 1 is hinged to the cabinet 7 via a door shaft. The back panel 1 forms a shell of the back panel air conditioner, and can support and protect the components arranged thereon.

[0029] Exemplarily, the outer side plate of the back plate 1 may be formed by bending a plate multiple times.

[0030] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The heat exchange assembly 5 is arranged on the flat mounting plate 2 for dissipating heat inside the cabinet 7. The observation window 6 is arranged on the inclined mounting plate 3; an observation hole is arranged on the inner side plate of the back plate 1 at a position corresponding to the observation window 6, and the inside of the cabinet 7 can be observed through the observation window 6 and the observation hole.

[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, the heat exchange assembly 5 includes a heat exchanger 51 and a fan 52. The heat exchanger 51 is arranged on the inner side panel of the flat mounting plate 2, and a refrigerant flows inside the heat exchanger 51. The fan 52 is arranged on the outer side panel of the flat mounting plate 2, and is used to increase the wind speed near the heat exchanger 51.

[0032] For example, Figure 5 As shown, the heat exchanger 51 has a refrigerant liquid pipe 53 and a refrigerant gas pipe 54. Liquid low-temperature refrigerant enters the heat exchanger 51 from the refrigerant liquid pipe 53, and after vaporizing and absorbing heat inside the heat exchanger 51, it flows out from the refrigerant gas pipe 54 to take away the heat on the heat exchanger 51.

[0033] Exemplarily, the fan 52 includes a plurality of exhaust fans, and the fan 52 can accelerate the discharge of heat from the cabinet 7 to improve the heat dissipation effect inside the cabinet 7 .

[0034] By providing the observation window 6, the staff can observe the inside of the cabinet without opening the back panel 1, thereby reducing the number of times the cabinet door is opened, which is beneficial to reducing the life loss of the door shaft, and can also avoid the hot air inside the cabinet blowing directly on the staff during observation, which is beneficial to improving the physical comfort of the staff and avoiding the loss of cold and hot air during door opening.

[0035] Usually, in order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the heat exchange component 5, the size of the heat exchange component 5 is set larger. Accordingly, in the direction facing the back plate 1, the size of the flat mounting plate 2 is larger, and the size of the inclined mounting plate 3 is smaller.

[0036] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inclined mounting plate 3 is inclined, and the observation window 6 arranged thereon is also inclined. Therefore, in the direction facing the back plate 1, even if the size of the inclined mounting plate 3 is small, the actual size of the observation window 6 can be made larger, which is conducive to expanding the area of ​​the observation window 6, so that the staff can observe the inside of the cabinet through the larger observation window 6.

[0037] On the other hand, combined Figure 4 and Figure 5 The heat exchanger 51 and the fan 52 in the heat exchange assembly 5 will block the sight of the staff. Figure 5 In the figure, area S1 is the visible range when the staff observes through the observation window 6, and area S2 is the invisible range. The inclined observation window 6 can also make one side of the observation window 6 closer to the cabinet 7, which is conducive to expanding the visible range when the staff observes through the observation window 6.

[0038] Therefore, in the backboard air conditioner in the embodiment of the utility model, the outer plate of the backboard 1 includes a flat mounting plate 2, a bevel mounting plate 3 and a connecting plate 4. By setting the heat exchange component 5 on the flat mounting plate 2 of the backboard 1, the inside of the cabinet 7 can be cooled. By setting the observation window 6, the staff can observe the inside of the cabinet through the observation window 6 without opening the backboard 1, which reduces the number of times the cabinet door is opened, which is conducive to reducing the life loss of the door shaft, and can also avoid the hot air inside the cabinet blowing directly on the staff when the staff observes, which is conducive to improving the physical comfort of the staff. By making the bevel mounting plate 3 tilted toward the side of the inner plate close to the backboard 1, the observation window 6 set thereon can also be tilted. Therefore, in the direction facing the backboard 1, even if the size of the bevel mounting plate 3 is small, the actual size of the observation window 6 can be made larger, which is conducive to expanding the area of ​​the observation window 6; and the tilted observation window 6 can also make one side of the observation window 6 closer to the cabinet 7, which is conducive to expanding the visual range of the staff when observing through the observation window 6.

[0039] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the included angle α between the inclined mounting plate 3 and the flat mounting plate 2 satisfies: 26°≤α≤28°.

[0040] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the thickness of the back plate 1 is a fixed value, for example, 110 mm. Due to process limitations, the minimum size of the connecting plate 4 can be 10 mm to 20 mm.

[0041] In this case, combined Figure 4 and Figure 5 If α is large, the size of the connecting plate 4 is difficult to guarantee; if α is small, the size of the connecting plate 4 is large, and one side of the observation window 6 is further away from the cabinet 7, reducing the visual range of the staff when observing through the observation window 6.

[0042] For example, the value of the angle α between the inclined mounting plate 3 and the flat mounting plate 2 may be 26°, 27°, or 28°.

[0043] Through the above arrangement, the process requirements of the connecting plate 4 can be met, and the visual range of the staff when observing through the observation window 6 can be guaranteed.

[0044] In some embodiments, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the horizontal direction, the ratio b of the width of the observation window 6 to the width of the inclined mounting plate 3 satisfies 0.8≤b<1.

[0045] For example, the value of b may be 0.8 or 0.9 or 0.95, etc.

[0046] For example, in the horizontal direction, if the width of the inclined mounting plate 3 is 100 mm, the width of the observation window 6 may be 80 mm, 90 mm, or 95 mm.

[0047] Through the above arrangement, the area of ​​the observation window 6 can be increased as much as possible, so that the staff can obtain a better visual range when observing the interior of the cabinet through the observation window 6.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, in the horizontal direction, the length L1 of the observation window 6 satisfies 60 mm ≤ L1 ≤ 100 mm.

[0049] For example, the length L1 of the observation window 6 may be 60 mm, 70 mm, or 100 mm.

[0050] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, the length L1 of the observation window 6 can be maintained within a reasonable range. On the premise of ensuring the observation function of the observation window 6, the length L1 of the observation window 6 is prevented from being too large to affect the arrangement space of the heat exchange component 5, so that the size of the heat exchange component 5 can meet the normal heat dissipation effect of the cabinet 7.

[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple observation windows 6, and the multiple observation windows 6 are vertically distributed in sequence on the entire inclined mounting plate 3.

[0052] Exemplarily, the number of the observation windows 6 is 6, 8, or 10, etc.

[0053] Through the above arrangement, the upper and lower parts of the cabinet can be comprehensively observed through the multiple observation windows 6.

[0054] Embodiment 2:

[0055] The utility model also provides an integrated cabinet. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the integrated cabinet includes a cabinet 7 and the backboard air conditioner in Embodiment 1. The cabinet 7 is placed indoors, and a storage space is formed inside the cabinet 7. The backboard 1 of the backboard air conditioner is hinged on the cabinet 7 so that the backboard air conditioner forms a cabinet door of the cabinet 7.

[0056] The cabinet 7 may be a communication cabinet, and the cabinet 7 is placed in a communication room.

[0057] By rotating the back panel 1, the back panel air conditioner can be driven to rotate as a whole to open or close the cabinet 7.

[0058] In working state, Figure 3 As shown, the back panel 1 makes the integrated cabinet in a closed state so that the back panel air conditioner can dissipate heat inside the cabinet; when the equipment inside the cabinet 7 needs to be maintained, such as Figure 4 As shown, the back panel 1 is rotated to open the integrated cabinet, so that the staff can maintain the equipment inside the cabinet 7 conveniently.

[0059] Through the above arrangement, the back panel air conditioner can be used as the cabinet door of the cabinet 7, which simplifies the structure of the integrated cabinet and is conducive to improving the integration of the integrated cabinet. In addition, the back panel air conditioner is close to the cabinet 7 to dissipate heat inside the cabinet 7, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the cabinet 7.

[0060] In some embodiments, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 The maximum rotation angle β of the back panel air conditioner relative to the cabinet 7 satisfies 120°≤β≤140°.

[0061] Exemplarily, β may be 120°, 130°, or 140°.

[0062] The above-mentioned β value is based on the space required for the staff to maintain the equipment inside the cabinet 7, while ensuring that the rotation angle of the back panel air conditioner each time is not too large to affect the life of the door shaft and the connection sealing of the refrigerant liquid pipe 53 and the refrigerant gas pipe 54.

[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the integrated cabinet further includes a server 8. The server 8 is arranged in the accommodation space of the cabinet 7, and the minimum distance L2 between the server 8 and the back plate 1 of the back plate air conditioner is greater than or equal to 100 mm.

[0064] Exemplarily, the server 8 may be a communication device, a power source, etc.

[0065] Understandable, see Figure 5 The larger the size of L2 is, the more the entire server 8 will fall within the visible range S1 of the observation window 6 , and the staff can observe the entire server 8 through the observation window 6 .

[0066] The smaller the size of L2 is, the more a portion of the server 8 will fall within the visible range S1 of the observation window 6 , and the staff can observe the portion of the server 8 through the observation window 6 .

[0067] After actual testing, when the thickness of the back panel 1 is 110 mm, the size of the connecting plate 4 is 10 mm to 20 mm, the above α satisfies: 26°≤α≤28°, and the width of the viewing window 6 is not less than 60 mm, when L2 is 100 mm, 30% of the overall area of ​​the server 8 falls within the visible range S1 of the observation window 6, that is, when the total width of the server 8 is 640 mm, only the part of the server 8 with a width of 192 mm can be observed through the observation window 6; when L2 is 358 mm, the entire server 8 falls within the visible range S1 of the observation window 6.

[0068] Through the above arrangement, the needs of the staff to observe the server 8 can be met, and the accommodation space of the cabinet 7 can be fully utilized.

[0069] Embodiment 3:

[0070] The embodiment of the utility model also provides an air conditioning system, which includes the integrated cabinet and the outdoor unit in embodiment 2. The outdoor unit is connected to the heat exchange component 5 of the back plate air conditioner in the integrated cabinet through a refrigerant pipeline; the refrigerant can circulate between the outdoor unit and the heat exchange component 5 through the refrigerant pipeline to achieve heat transfer between the outdoor unit and the heat exchange component 5.

[0071] Exemplarily, the outdoor unit is arranged outside the communication room, and the outdoor unit is used to generate low-temperature liquid refrigerant and transport it to the heat exchanger 51 of the heat exchange component 5. The low-temperature liquid refrigerant absorbs heat in the heat exchanger 51 and is converted into a high-temperature gaseous refrigerant, and then re-enters the outdoor unit to be converted into a low-temperature liquid refrigerant, thereby realizing the circulation of the refrigerant and taking away the heat in the heat exchange component 5.

[0072] Thus, the heat in the heat exchange component 5 can be transferred to the outdoors through the outdoor unit, so that the backplane air conditioner can continue to dissipate heat inside the cabinet 7.

[0073] It is understood that the above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments used to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
