Description
Technical Field
[0001] This article belongs to the technical field of DC bus ducts, and specifically relates to a track-type DC bus duct. Background Art
[0002] With the development of 5G technology, data center construction has entered a stage of rapid development. Data center dedicated bus ducts have also become popular.
[0003] DC power supply has advantages over AC power supply in data center applications:
[0004] 1. Efficiency improvement: DC power supply systems, especially 240V high-voltage DC systems, can achieve higher overall efficiency, reaching over 96%, due to the elimination of the inverter link. This is a significant improvement over traditional AC systems.
[0005] 2. Increased equipment density: Since DC power supply reduces heat emission, the voltage conversion module can be omitted in the server, thereby saving space and increasing equipment density.
[0006] 3. Reduced cooling requirements: DC power supply reduces heat generation due to improved efficiency, thereby reducing cooling requirements and helping to reduce data center energy consumption and operating costs.
[0007] 3. Improved reliability: In the DC power supply system, the battery can be directly connected in parallel to the output bus, and can directly supply power when the mains power is abnormal, thereby improving the reliability of the system.
[0008] 4. Easy maintenance: The modular design of the DC power supply system makes maintenance simpler and more convenient, reducing operation and maintenance costs.
[0009] 5. Economical: The DC power supply solution can more flexibly utilize the energy storage system during peak and off-peak periods of electricity consumption, and has better economical efficiency.
[0010] 6. Reduce conversion loss: DC power supply avoids the conversion loss from AC to DC. Especially in large-scale data centers, this efficiency improvement can bring significant energy efficiency improvements.
[0011] 7. Support for renewable energy: DC power supply systems are easier to combine with renewable energy systems such as solar energy, helping data centers achieve greater energy self-sufficiency and sustainability.
[0012] Currently, DC data center bus ducts on the market are directly replacing AC bus ducts, and the structure still uses the "AB CN PE" five-pole arrangement. This has the disadvantages of being overly complex and having large phase-to-phase capacitance. When transmitting DC power, the five-level structure easily causes uneven current distribution due to uneven load. Since the bus duct connectors in the five-level structure cannot reintegrate electrical energy, the result is large single-phase current and heat generation, and rapid aging of local single-phase insulation, posing a hidden danger. The dedicated DC bus duct for data centers has a three-level structure of "positive," "negative," and "ground," which concentrates the current distribution and evenly dissipates the generated heat, reducing the hidden danger of rapid local insulation aging. Utility Model Content
[0013] To address the aforementioned issues, this paper proposes a track-type DC busbar duct. Busbars are installed within the busbar housing of the DC busbar duct. The busbar housing is a center-split track housing. A plug-in slot is provided on the bottom surface of the busbar housing, which is connected to the centerline. Busbar insulation layers are provided on two parallel inner surfaces of the plug-in slot. The inner surfaces of the busbar insulation layers on both sides are provided with positive and negative busbars, respectively, which are plug-in and pass through. The ends of the busbar insulation layers protrude from the outer ends of the busbar housing. Fixing clips penetrate through the outer ends of the busbar insulation layers, connecting and securing the insulated sides of the busbars to the busbars. Grounding slots are symmetrically provided on both sides of the bottom of the plug-in slot. Grounding copper bars and grounding fixtures are provided within the grounding slots. Housing fixings are provided on the outer sides of the grounding fixtures at both ends of the bottom surface of the busbar housing. This dedicated DC busbar duct for data centers is specifically developed for powering data center PDU cabinets (DC). Based on the characteristics of DC power supply, the copper bars are divided into three levels: "positive," "negative," and "ground." The hidden danger of uneven current distribution and concentrated heating points is reduced.
[0014] The busbar housing is in the shape of a long rectangular housing. The upper, left and right sides of the busbar housing are provided with outer assembly grooves. The inner ends of the busbar housing are conductively provided with busbar cavities. The bottom of the busbar cavity is conductively provided with a plug-in slot. The inner walls of the busbar cavity are symmetrically provided with busbar slots on the left and right sides. The outer side of the bottom surface of the plug-in slot is protruding downwardly with a grounding slot. The inner side of the grounding slot is provided with a grounding cavity with conductive ends. The bottom of the grounding cavity is provided with a fixed guide groove. By directly arranging two busbar slots for installing the busbar on the inner side of the conventional track-type busbar housing, a DC positive and negative pole double busbar connection is achieved, which is simple and efficient.
[0015] The busbar insulation layer is in the shape of a rectangular long strip of card slot. The busbar insulation layer is fitted on the left and right sides of the inner wall of the busbar shell. The upper and lower sides of the busbar insulation layer are symmetrically provided with guide grooves. One side surface of the busbar insulation layer is concavely provided with a busbar card slot. Guide spikes are provided on both sides of the outside of the busbar card slot. Fixing holes are provided on the two end surfaces of the busbar insulation layer. The fixing holes are symmetrically passed through the inner side of the busbar card slot with the horizontal center line as the reference. The positive and negative busbars are directly installed to the inside of the busbar shell through the busbar insulation layer. Not only can absolute insulation performance be guaranteed, but the busbar is also fixed through the fixing buckles at both ends. Moreover, the guide spikes are provided to facilitate the guide installation of connection devices such as plug-in boxes and connection sockets.
[0016] The positive busbar and the negative busbar are both in the shape of long rectangular plates. Both end surfaces of the positive busbar and the negative busbar are provided with through holes. The positive busbar and the negative busbar are connected to the busbar insulation layer through the through holes and fixing clips. By directly arranging the positive and negative busbars of the DC busbar on both sides of the inner shell of the busbar, uniform heat conduction of the DC busbar is achieved to prevent heat accumulation.
[0017] The material of the fixing clip is insulating material, and the shape of the fixing clip is a round pressure nail. The top of the fixing clip is provided with a flat nail head, and the bottom of the fixing clip is vertically provided with a thorny one-way clamping column. The busbar insulation layer and the busbar are connected and fixed by a one-way plug-in fixing hook, and are arranged at both ends protruding from the outer end of the busbar shell to prevent interference and ensure smooth installation of the busbar insulation layer.
[0018] The inner top surface of the grounding slot is fitted with a grounding copper busbar, and the bottom surface of the grounding copper busbar is pressed with a grounding fixing piece. The grounding fixing piece is in the shape of a slide-type clip. The inner side of the grounding fixing piece is provided with a plurality of vertical push rods. The push rods are connected to the grounding copper busbar in a top-pressing manner. The grounding busbar of the busbar duct can be independently arranged on the outside of the busbar through the grounding slot, thereby preventing the busbar from affecting the performance of the grounding busbar.
[0019] Beneficial effects:
[0020] This data center DC bus duct is specifically developed for powering data center PDU cabinets (DC). Based on the characteristics of DC power supply, the copper busbars are divided into three levels: "positive," "negative," and "ground." This reduces the hidden dangers of uneven current distribution and concentrated hot spots.
[0021] By directly arranging two busbar slots for installing busbars on the inner side of a conventional track-type busbar housing, a DC type positive and negative pole double busbar connection is achieved, which is simple and efficient.
[0022] The positive and negative busbars are installed directly into the busbar casing through the busbar insulation layer, which not only ensures absolute insulation performance, but also fixes the busbar through the fixing clips at both ends, and also facilitates the connection and installation of connecting devices such as plug-in boxes and connection sockets through the provided guide tips.
[0023] By directly arranging the positive and negative busbars of the DC busbar on both sides of the inner portion of the busbar housing, the DC busbar is evenly conductive to prevent heat accumulation.
[0024] The busbar insulation layer and the busbar are connected and fixed by a one-way plug-in fixing hook, and are arranged at both ends protruding from the outer end of the busbar shell, thereby preventing interference and ensuring smooth installation of the busbar insulation layer.
[0025] The grounding slot can be used to independently set the grounding bar of the bus duct on the outside of the busbar, thereby preventing the busbar from affecting the performance of the grounding bar. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
