Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0030] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the technical terms or scientific terms used in this application should have the common meanings understood by technicians in the field to which this application belongs.

[0031] Embodiment 1

[0032] Reference Figure 1 -Attached Figure 5 Embodiment 1 of the present application proposes a chassis, which includes: a chassis body 1, on which a vent 101 is opened; and an air outlet grid 2, which includes a first grid layer 201 and a second grid layer 202 arranged in a stacked manner, wherein the first grid layer 201 includes a plurality of first ventilation holes 201a, and the second grid layer 202 includes a plurality of second ventilation holes 202b, wherein the plurality of first ventilation holes 201a and the plurality of second ventilation holes 202b partially overlap, and the vent 101 is formed at the connecting portion.

[0033] Specifically, the chassis provided in this embodiment is the external structure of the host of a computer or the external shell structure of a server, which can be specifically a shell in the shape of a cube and having a cavity. The interior of the chassis is used to install electronic devices such as a motherboard, CPU, memory, hard disk, power supply, and a fan that plays a role in heat dissipation and cooling of each electronic device. A vent 101 is provided on the top of the chassis, which can be used for ventilation and heat dissipation of the chassis. The vent 101 can be specifically an air outlet; the shape of the vent 101 can be rectangular, and its area can be expanded as much as possible to increase the air outlet inside the chassis; in order to avoid a large amount of dust or other impurities from entering the interior of the chassis body 1 through the vent 101, thereby affecting the normal operation of the electronic devices inside the chassis body 1, in the technical solution adopted in this application, an air outlet grid 2 that is adapted to its shape and size can be installed at the vent 101. In order to take into account both the dust blocking and the air outlet efficiency at the vent 101, The air outlet grid 2 is set as a double-layer structure, which includes a first grid layer 201 and a second grid layer 202 that are stacked. The two-layer structure can be but is not limited to being processed by one-piece molding. The first grid layer 201 includes a plurality of first ventilation holes 201a, and the second grid layer 202 includes a plurality of second ventilation holes 202b, and is not limited to setting the first ventilation holes 201a and the second ventilation holes 202b to be the same size and the same dimension. The first grid layer 201 and the second grid layer 202 are staggered so that the plurality of first ventilation holes 201a of the first grid layer 201 partially overlap with the plurality of second ventilation holes 202b of the second grid layer 202 to form a ventilation gap. Such a design can ensure a higher air outlet efficiency at the vent 101 of the chassis body 1 through the setting of the grid layer structure, and the double-layer grid design can further play a role in isolating dust and debris, and has a better sense of shape, which is conducive to improving the aesthetics of the chassis appearance.

[0034] The first mesh layer 201 and the second mesh layer 202 can be partially overlapped in the thickness direction of the air outlet mesh 2, forming a design of upper and lower extrusion molding, and can form a 3D texture effect, making the chassis more stylish. In addition, a groove structure facing the vent 101 can be set at the top of the chassis body 1 and on the side of the vent 101. The upper wall of the groove structure is at the same height as the top surface of the air outlet mesh 2, so that a hidden handle 7 structure can be formed to facilitate users to move the chassis body 1 more conveniently.

[0035] For further information, see Attachment Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 In a specific implementation, the first grid layer 201 and the second grid layer 202 are grid structures formed by splicing; the first ventilation hole 201a and the second ventilation hole 202b meet similar conditions.

[0036] Specifically, taking into account both the air outlet efficiency and the dust-proof performance of the air outlet grid 2, in the technical solution adopted in the present application, the first grid layer 201 and the second grid layer 202 are respectively provided with grid structures formed by splicing, which can be formed by staggered splicing of long strip structures, or by sequentially connecting and splicing through multiple deformation structures, etc.; and the formed first ventilation holes 201a and second ventilation holes 202b meet similar conditions, which include multiple situations. The first situation is: the shapes of the first ventilation holes 201a and the second ventilation holes 202b are similar or the same; the second situation is: the sizes of the first ventilation holes 201a and the second ventilation holes 202b are similar or the same; the third situation is: the shapes and sizes of the first ventilation holes 201a and the second ventilation holes 202b are respectively similar or the same. When designing the first ventilation holes 201a and the second ventilation holes 202b, any one of the above situations can be selected for design.

[0037] For further information, see Attachment Figure 2 In a specific implementation, each of the first ventilation holes 201a and each of the second ventilation holes 202b are hexagonal holes surrounded by six edges; the three edges of three adjacent second ventilation holes 202b are connected to form a Y shape and overlap with the first ventilation holes 201a.

[0038] Specifically, in order to further improve the aesthetics and styling of the chassis body 1, the technical solution adopted in the present application adopts a design in which the shapes and sizes of the first ventilation hole 201a and the second ventilation hole 202b meet similar conditions, specifically: the first mesh layer 201 and the second mesh layer 202 have the same structure, and are respectively formed by splicing multiple edge structures, and the formed first ventilation holes 201a and second ventilation holes 202b are respectively hexagonal holes formed by six edges, and the positions of the first mesh layer 201 and the second mesh layer 202 are staggered so that the Y-shape formed by the three edges connecting the three adjacent second ventilation holes 202b is exposed in the first ventilation hole 201a, so that the air outlet grid 2 forms a 3D modeling effect, which is more aesthetically pleasing, and can better prevent dust and debris without affecting the ventilation efficiency.

[0039] For further information, see Attachment Figure 3 In a specific implementation, a light-transmitting window (not shown in the figure) is provided on the side of the chassis body 1; a light-transmitting plate is provided in the light-transmitting window, and a shielding portion 3 is partially provided in the light-transmitting window.

[0040] Specifically, in order to further enhance the aesthetics of the chassis body 1, in the technical solution adopted in the present application, a light-transmitting window is provided on the side of the chassis body 1, through which the lighting effect on the back of the chassis can be seen, making the appearance of the chassis body 1 cooler, and a shielding portion 3 is partially provided in the light-transmitting window, which can be used to shield the area on the back of the chassis where electronic devices are concentrated, which also plays a role in improving the aesthetics.

[0041] For further information, see Attachment Figure 3 In a specific implementation, the shielding portion 3 is configured as a grid-like structure having a plurality of light-transmitting holes 301; wherein the light-transmitting holes 301 are adapted to the shapes of the first ventilation holes 201a and the second ventilation holes 202b.

[0042] Specifically, in order to improve the consistency of the design of the chassis body 1, in the technical solution adopted in the present application, the shielding portion 3 can be set as a grid structure with multiple light-transmitting holes 301, and the basic structure of the shielding portion 3 is the same as the structure of the first grid layer 201 and the second grid layer 202, that is, the shape of the light-transmitting holes 301 is at least adapted to the shape of the first ventilation holes 201a and the second ventilation holes 202b. Such a design can make the shielding portion 3 of the chassis body 1 echo the design of the air outlet grid 2, while achieving a certain shielding effect, it can improve the aesthetics.

[0043] For further information, see Attachment Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 In a specific implementation, an air inlet 102 is provided at the bottom of the chassis body 1, a filter structure 4 corresponding to the air inlet 102 is movably provided inside the chassis body 1, and a pull-out opening corresponding to and adapted to the filter structure 4 is provided on the side of the chassis body 1; the filter structure 4 includes: a filter body 401 and a pull-out portion 402 connected to one side of the filter body 401, and the pull-out portion 402 is exposed at the pull-out opening.

[0044] Specifically, in order to avoid dust accumulation at the air inlet 102 of the chassis body 1 and affect the air intake efficiency of the chassis body 1, in the technical solution adopted by the present application, a pull-out opening connected to the air inlet 102 is opened at the side of the chassis body 1 and near the bottom, and a filter structure 4 adapted to the air inlet 102 is designed, and the filter structure 4 includes: a filter body 401 that plays a filtering role and a pull-out portion 402 located on one side of the filter body 401; the cross-sectional shape and size of the filter body 401 are adapted to the pull-out opening, and the shape of the pull-out portion 402 is adapted to the pull-out opening but its size is slightly larger than the pull-out opening. The filter structure 4 is designed to be detachably installed on the chassis body 1, specifically: the filter body 401 is passed through the pull-out port and gradually moved to a position corresponding to the air inlet 102, and the filter body 401 can filter dust at the air inlet 102. After dust accumulates after being used for a period of time, the pull-out portion 402 is exposed at the pull-out port, which makes it easy to disassemble the filter structure 4, and thus makes it convenient for users to clean the filter body 401. By setting up the detachable filter structure, when dust accumulates at the air inlet 102, there is no need to move and flip the chassis body 1, etc., which saves time and effort for users.

[0045] Furthermore, in a specific implementation, the chassis body 1 has a light bar (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the position of the drawer opening.

[0046] Specifically, in the technical solution adopted in the present application, a light strip is arranged on the side of the chassis at a position corresponding to the pull-out opening, which can improve the aesthetics of the chassis body 1, and the light strip can be combined with an independent lighting effect design to display the status of the filter body 401, so as to prompt the user to clean the filter body 401 in time.

[0047] For further information, see Attachment Figure 5 In a specific implementation, a first side beam 5 is provided at the edge of the back of the chassis body 1 , and a cable harness hole 501 is formed on the first side beam 5 .

[0048] Specifically, in order to facilitate the arrangement of wires on the back of the chassis body 1, in the technical solution adopted in the present application, a first side beam 5 is provided at the edge of the back of the chassis body 1, and a wiring hole 501 is pierced through the first side beam 5. All wires connected to the plug plugged in the back of the chassis body 1 can pass through the wiring hole 501 for easy arrangement, thereby making the appearance of the chassis body 1 more tidy and beautiful and improving the comfort of user use; wherein, the first side beam 5 can be provided on the side of the chassis body 1 or at the bottom of the chassis body 1.

[0049] For further information, see Attachment Figure 5 In a specific implementation, a second side beam 6 is provided on the back edge of the chassis body 1 opposite to the first side beam 5; the first side beam 5 and the second side beam 6 are located in the same plane away from the surface of the chassis body 1.

[0050] Specifically, in order to prevent the plug plugged into the back of the chassis body 1 from being accidentally touched and affecting the reliability of the connection, in the technical solution adopted in the present application, a second side beam 6 is arranged on the side of the back of the chassis opposite to the first side beam 5. The second side beam 6 can be the same size as the first side beam 5, so that the back panel of the chassis body 1 can be sunk into the chassis shell, so that the plug of the power supply and the like plugged into the back of the chassis body 1 will not protrude from the surface of the chassis body 1, thereby greatly reducing the risk of the plug being accidentally touched.
