Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of servers, in particular to a wall-mounted device. Background Art
[0002] As server integration continues to increase, their size may continue to increase. However, due to the limited space required for server installation, higher requirements are placed on the miniaturization of server designs. As a result, the size of traditional rack-mounted servers is difficult to meet the requirements of miniaturization and high integration, so edge servers with smaller sizes and diverse application scenarios have been introduced. Typically, edge servers are placed directly inside a cabinet or computer room, and the installation method is relatively simple. When the cabinet space is insufficient or the computer room space is small, it will make it impossible to install the server properly.
[0003] Therefore, how to improve the installation flexibility of the server has become a difficult problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model provides a wall-mounted device for improving the installation flexibility of a server.
[0005] The utility model provides a wall-mounting device for mounting a server, wherein the server includes a chassis, and the wall-mounting device includes a bracket and a hook, wherein the bracket is hung on the hook, and the bracket includes a plug-in slot and a limiting hole, wherein the plug-in slot is used to plug the chassis. The limiting hole is provided on the side wall of the plug-in slot, and the limiting hole is used to limit the chassis plugged into the plug-in slot in the plug-in slot.
[0006] The wall-mounting device provided in this application allows the server to be mounted by plugging the server chassis into the bracket's socket and then hanging the bracket on the hook. This allows the server to be mounted on the inner wall of the cabinet or the wall of the computer room using the wall-mounting device when the cabinet's internal space is insufficient or the computer room is small, thus improving the flexibility and convenience of server installation.
[0007] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the chassis includes a plug-in structure that is inserted into the limiting hole and abuts against the side wall of the limiting hole or the outer side of the side wall of the plug-in slot. This facilitates the connection and stability between the server and the wall-mounted device.
[0008] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the retaining hole includes an opening and a first sidewall. The opening extends through the edge of the sidewall of the slot, extending from the slot bottom to the slot opening. The opening is configured for inserting the plug-in structure. This facilitates easier insertion between the server chassis and the slot. Furthermore, because the plane of the first sidewall intersects the direction from the slot bottom to the slot opening, the first sidewall is configured to abut against the plug-in structure. This effectively reduces the risk of the server falling out of the slot opening, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the wall-mounted device and the server.
[0009] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the socket includes two opposing sidewalls, and the bracket includes at least two stopper holes, one located on each sidewall of the socket. The chassis includes at least two plug-in structures, and the at least two plug-in structures correspond to the at least two stopper holes. This further improves the reliability of the connection between the server and the wall-mounted device.
[0010] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the socket further includes a mounting hole extending through a side wall of the socket, and the socket is secured to the chassis via a fastener extending through the mounting hole. This allows the fastener to apply pressure to the side wall of the server chassis, causing one side of the server chassis to abut the fastener and the other side to abut the side wall of the socket, further improving the connection reliability between the wall-mounted device and the server.
[0011] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the bracket further includes an adapter member located on and fixedly connected to the outer side of the bottom of the insertion slot. The adapter member is mounted on a hook, thereby enhancing the overall strength of the bracket while also making the connection between the bracket and the hook more convenient.
[0012] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the adapter includes at least one through-hole, the axis of which extends from the bottom of the insertion slot to the slot opening. A hook is inserted into the through-hole, abutting against the sidewall of the through-hole. The wall-mounting device provided by the present invention effectively enhances the ease of connection between the bracket and the hook. Furthermore, the abutment of the hook against the sidewall of the through-hole effectively improves the reliability of the connection between the bracket and the hook.
[0013] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the adapter includes a first bending portion and two second bending portions, and the first bending portion is located between the two second bending portions and is connected to the two second bending portions. The first bending portion is in contact with and fixedly connected to the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug-in slot, and a gap exists between the second bending portion and the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug-in slot. The through hole is located in the second bending portion. With the wall-hanging device provided by the present invention, since there is a gap between the second bending portion and the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug-in slot, and the through hole is provided in the second bending portion, the risk of the hook contacting the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug-in slot can be effectively reduced, and the convenience of connecting the bracket and the hook can be improved.
[0014] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the socket further includes a reinforcing protrusion located on the outer side of the socket bottom, and the first bent portion is in contact with and fixedly connected to the reinforcing protrusion. This improves the overall strength of the bracket while also making it easier to connect the adapter to the socket.
[0015] In one possible implementation of the present invention, the hook is used to securely connect to a wall or the inner sidewall of a server cabinet, thereby enabling the server chassis to be hung on the inner sidewall or wall of the cabinet. This effectively improves the flexibility and convenience of server installation when the cabinet interior space is insufficient or the computer room space is small. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the example embodiments can be implemented in various forms and should not be understood as being limited to the embodiments described herein. The same figure marks in the figures represent the same or similar structures, and thus their repeated descriptions will be omitted. The words expressing position and direction described in the embodiments of the present invention are all explained using the accompanying drawings as examples, but changes can be made as needed, and the changes made are all included in the scope of protection of the present invention. The drawings of the embodiments of the present invention are only used to illustrate the relative position relationship, and they do not represent the true proportions.
[0026] It should be noted that the following description sets forth specific details to facilitate understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in a variety of other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0027] As server integration continues to increase, their size may continue to increase. However, due to the limited space required for server installation, higher requirements are placed on the miniaturization of server designs. As a result, the size of traditional rack-mounted servers is difficult to meet the requirements of miniaturization and high integration, so edge servers with smaller sizes and diverse application scenarios have been introduced. Typically, edge servers are placed directly inside a cabinet or computer room, and the installation method is relatively simple. When the cabinet space is insufficient or the computer room space is small, it will make it impossible to install the server properly.
[0028] In view of this, the present invention provides a wall-mounted device for mounting a server, thereby improving the installation flexibility of the server. In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a wall-mounting device provided by the present invention. The wall-mounting device is used to mount a server, which includes a chassis. The wall-mounting device includes a bracket 1 and a hook 2. The bracket 1 is hung on the hook 2, and the hook 2 can be fixed to a wall or the inner wall of the server cabinet using expansion screws.
[0030] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 Schematic diagram of a structure of the hook 2 provided by the present invention. In the embodiment of the present invention, the surface of the hook 2 may be provided with reinforcing ribs 21 to improve the strength of the hook 2.
[0031] Figure 3 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of the wall-mounted device and the server in the plug-in state. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The bracket 1 includes a plug-in slot 11 and a limiting hole 12. The plug-in slot 11 is used to plug the chassis 01. The limiting hole 12 is set on the side wall of the plug-in slot 11, and the limiting hole 12 is used to limit the chassis 01 plugged in the plug-in slot 11 to the plug-in slot 11.
[0032] Using the wall-mounting device provided in this application, the server can be mounted by plugging the server chassis 01 into the socket 11 of the bracket 1 and hanging the bracket 1 on the hook 2. In this way, when the internal space of the cabinet is insufficient or the space of the computer room is small, the server can be hung on the inner wall of the cabinet or the wall of the computer room using the wall-mounting device, which is conducive to improving the flexibility and convenience of server installation.
[0033] In addition, the server can also be directly inserted into the cabinet. Users can choose different installation methods according to actual usage needs to improve the installation diversity of the server.
[0034] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 for Figure 3 The limiting hole 12 includes an opening 121 and a first side wall 122, and is formed along the direction from the bottom of the insertion slot 11 to the slot opening of the insertion slot 11 (as shown in FIG. Figure 4 In the X-axis direction shown, opening 121 extends through the edge of the side wall of plug slot 11. Furthermore, server chassis 01 also includes plug structure 011. In the present invention, opening 121 allows plug structure 011 to be inserted into retaining hole 12. It is understood that, along the Y-axis, opening 121 of retaining hole 12 is larger than that of plug structure 011 to facilitate insertion of plug structure 011.
[0035] Furthermore, the plane on which the first side wall 122 lies intersects the direction from the bottom of the insertion slot 11 to the notch of the insertion slot 11. Therefore, when the insertion structure 011 is inserted into the limiting hole 12, the first side wall 122 can be used to abut against the insertion structure 011. Thus, along the direction from the bottom of the insertion slot 11 to the notch of the insertion slot 11, the first side wall 122 can be used to limit the position of the server chassis 01, which helps reduce the risk of the server falling out of the notch of the insertion slot 11, thereby improving the connection reliability between the wall-mounted device and the server.
[0036] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific shape of the limiting hole 12. For example, Figure 4 As shown, the limiting hole 12 can be L-shaped, and the opening 121 of the limiting groove is located at the end of the long side, the first side wall 122 is located at the short side, and the plane where the first side wall 122 is located is at an angle of 90° to the direction of the X-axis, so as to further improve the plug-in reliability between the wall-mounted device and the server.
[0037] In addition, the present invention does not limit the specific structure of the plug-in structure 011. For example, the plug-in structure 011 can be an I-shaped nail. There is a gap between the large end of the I-shaped nail and the side wall of the server chassis 01. This can make the plug-in structure 011 more concise while meeting the functional requirements of the plug-in structure 011. And as Figure 4 As shown, along the X-axis direction, the width of the portion of the limiting hole 12 located on the first side wall 122 is smaller than the size of the large head of the I-nail, so that the side wall of the plug-in slot 11 can be located between the large head of the I-nail and the side wall of the server chassis 01, so as to further improve the plug-in reliability between the wall-mounted device and the server.
[0038] In a specific embodiment, reference Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the plug-in slot 11 provided by the present invention. The plug-in slot 11 includes a bottom plate 111 and two side walls 112 arranged opposite to each other. The bottom plate 111 is located between the two side walls 112 and connects the two side walls 112. The bracket 1 includes at least two limiting holes 12, and at least two limiting holes 12 are respectively provided on the two side walls 112 of the plug-in slot 11. In addition, the direction of the notch of the plug-in slot 11 toward the bottom of the slot is the same as the direction of the X-axis. At the same time, the two ends of the plug-in slot 11 along the Z-axis direction are open ends, and along the Z-axis direction, the server chassis 01 can extend along the open ends, which is conducive to improving the convenience of moving the server along the Z-axis direction.
[0039] In addition, the bottom plate 111 is provided with a curling edge at the open end, which helps to improve the overall strength of the plug slot 11. The side wall 112 and the bottom plate 111 can be an integral sheet metal bent part to further improve the overall strength of the plug slot 11.
[0040] Combined Figure 3 and Figure 5 The chassis 01 includes at least two plug-in structures 011, and the at least two plug-in structures 011 and the at least two limiting holes 12 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, which can further improve the plug-in reliability between the wall-mounted device and the server.
[0041] In addition, continue to refer to Figure 5 The sidewall of the socket 11 is further provided with a mounting hole 123, and the socket 11 is fixed to the chassis 01 via a fastener passing through the mounting hole 123. The mounting hole 123 can be, for example, a screw hole, and the fastener can be, for example, a screw. This allows the screw to apply pressure to the server chassis 01 along the Y-axis direction, so that one side of the server chassis 01 abuts the screw and the other side abuts the sidewall of the socket 11, which helps to further improve the plugging reliability between the wall-mounted device and the server.
[0042] It is worth mentioning that two mounting holes 123 can be set, and the two mounting holes 123 are respectively arranged on the two side walls of the plug-in slot 11, and the two mounting holes 123 are arranged opposite to each other, so that the two side walls of the server chassis 01 along the Y-axis direction can be in contact with the screws, which is conducive to improving the installation convenience of the server.
[0043] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the bracket 1 further includes a transition piece 13, which is located on the outer side of the bottom of the insertion slot 11 (ie, Figure 5 The bottom plate 111 shown is on the side away from the side wall 112 along the X-axis direction) and is fixedly connected to the outer side of the bottom of the slot 11, and the adapter is hung on the hook. This improves the overall strength of the bracket while improving the convenience of connection between the bracket and the hook. For details, refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 The schematic diagram of the structure of the adapter provided by the present invention is shown in FIG. The adapter 13 includes a first bending portion 131 and two second bending portions 132. The first bending portion 131 is located between the two second bending portions 132 and is connected to the two second bending portions 132. Figure 1 As shown, the first bent portion 131 is in contact with and fixedly connected to the outer side surface of the bottom of the insertion slot 11 .
[0044] It is worth mentioning that the second bending portion 132 includes a connecting portion 1321 and an extending portion 1322. The extending portion 1322 is connected to the first bending portion 131 through the connecting portion 1321. Figure 7 , Figure 7 for Figure 3B-direction view of the structure shown. At the same time, the connecting portion 1321 is bent relative to the first bending portion 131 in a direction away from the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug-in slot 11. There is a gap between the plane where the extension portion 1322 is located and the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug-in slot 11 between the connecting portion 1321 and the bottom of the plug-in slot 11. In addition, the adapter 13 also includes at least one through hole 133, and at least one through hole 133 is arranged in the second bending portion 132 along the direction from the bottom of the plug-in slot 11 to the notch of the plug-in slot 11, and the hook 2 abuts against the side wall of the through hole 133. It can effectively improve the convenience and reliability of connection between the bracket and the hook. In addition, the through hole 133 can be exemplarily arranged in the extension portion 1322.
[0045] With the wall-mounting device provided by the present invention, the gap between the second bent portion 132 and the outer side surface of the bottom of the insertion slot 11, and the through hole 133 provided in the extension portion 1322 of the second bent portion 132, effectively reduces the risk of the hook 2 contacting the outer side surface of the bottom of the insertion slot 11, and improves the ease of connection between the bracket 1 and the hook 2. Furthermore, because the hook 2 abuts the sidewall of the through hole 133, the connection reliability between the bracket 1 and the hook 2 is effectively improved.
[0046] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the material of the adapter 13 . Exemplarily, the material of the adapter 13 is sheet metal, and it can be an integrated structure, which is beneficial to improving the overall strength of the adapter 13 .
[0047] In addition, the adapter 13 and the plug slot 11 can be an integral structure or a split structure. When the adapter 13 and the plug slot 11 are split structures, the adapter 13 and the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug slot 11 can be connected by welding, which is conducive to improving the connection reliability between the adapter 13 and the plug slot 11, or the adapter 13 and the outer side surface of the bottom of the plug slot 11 can be connected by threaded connection, so as to improve the flexibility of connection and replacement between the two. And the adapter 13 can be provided with one or more Figure 1 Multiple shown.
[0048] It is worth mentioning that Figure 5 As shown, the socket 11 further includes a reinforcing protrusion 113, which is located on the outer side of the bottom of the socket 11 and protrudes in the positive direction of the X-axis. The first bent portion 131 is in contact with and fixedly connected to the reinforcing protrusion 113. This improves the overall strength of the socket 11 while also enhancing the ease of connection between the adapter 13 and the socket 11. Furthermore, it is understood that, along the X-axis, because the reinforcing protrusion 113 located on the inner side of the bottom of the socket 11 is groove-shaped, when the adapter 13 is connected to the outer side of the bottom of the socket 11 via fasteners, the risk of contact between the fasteners and the server chassis 01 is reduced.
[0049] In practical applications, the wall-mounted device provided by the present utility model is Figure 1 As shown, the two side walls of the insertion slot 11 can be arranged relative to each other along the Y-axis direction, so that along the direction of gravity, that is, Figure 1 In the Z-axis direction shown, the plug-in structure 011 can abut against the side wall of the limiting hole 12, thereby achieving the Z-axis direction of the plug-in slot 11 to limit the position of the server chassis 01. In addition, since the plug-in structure 011 abuts against the first side wall 122 of the limiting hole 12 along the X-axis direction, and the server chassis 01 abuts against the inner side wall or fastener of the plug-in slot 11 along the Y-axis direction, the plug-in slot can limit the position of the server chassis 01 along the X-axis and Y-axis directions. Therefore, the wall-mounting device provided by the utility model can ensure the reliability of the server mounting.
[0050] In addition, reference Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a structural diagram of another state of the wall-mounted device provided by the present invention, and Figure 8 It is used to illustrate another matching relationship between the bracket 1 and the hook 2, wherein the two side walls of the plug slot 11 are arranged relative to each other along the Z axis direction, so that along the direction of gravity, that is, Figure 8 In the Z-axis direction shown, the plug-in structure 011 can abut against the outer side surface of the side wall of the plug-in slot 11, thereby achieving the Z-axis direction of the plug-in slot 11 to limit the server chassis 01. In addition, since the plug-in structure 011 abuts against the first side wall 122 of the limiting hole 12 along the X-axis direction, and the server chassis 01 abuts against the side wall of the limiting hole 12 along the Y-axis direction, the plug-in slot 11 can limit the server chassis 01 along the X-axis and Y-axis directions. Therefore, using the wall-mounting device provided by the utility model, the relative direction of the bracket 1 and the hook 2 can be changed according to actual needs, which is conducive to improving the versatility of the wall-mounting device.
[0051] In summary, the wall-mounting device provided by the present invention allows the server to be mounted by plugging the server chassis 01 into the socket 11 of the bracket 1 and hanging the bracket 1 on the hook 2. This allows the server to be mounted on the inner wall of the cabinet or the wall of the computer room using the wall-mounting device when the cabinet interior space is insufficient or the computer room space is small, thereby improving the flexibility and convenience of server installation.
