[0026] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 :
[0028] The utility model proposes a power distribution box for a data center, comprising: a power distribution box body 1;
[0029] Two doors 2 are installed on the front side of the distribution box 1 by hinges; five sets of guide rails 3 are arranged at equal distances on the left and right inner walls of the distribution box 1; an equipment mounting plate 4 is slidably installed between the five sets of guide rails 3; an equipment mounting rail 5 is fixed to the front side of the equipment mounting plate 4; a pull rod 6 is provided on the left and right sides of the front of the equipment mounting plate 4; five air inlet pipes 7 and five air outlet pipes 8 are fixed to the rear inner wall of the distribution box 1; an air inlet cover 9 is welded to the rear outer wall of the distribution box 1; a fan 10 is installed on the top of the distribution box 1, and the air outlet of the fan 10 is connected to the air inlet cover 9.
[0030] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, a row of circular holes connected to the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 8 are provided on the left and right sides of the rear of the distribution box body 1, and the circular holes on the rear side of the air inlet pipe 7 are connected to the cavity inside the air inlet cover 9. When the fan 10 is working, the cooling air will be blown into the air inlet cover 9, and then the cooling air in the air inlet cover 9 will enter the cavity inside the equipment mounting plate 4 through the air inlet pipe 7. The air entering the cavity of the equipment mounting plate 4 will flow to the right and be discharged outward through the air outlet pipe 8. Because part of the heat generated when the equipment instrument is working will be transferred to the equipment mounting plate 4, the heat can be taken away when the air flows to achieve the heat dissipation effect.
[0031] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 3-Figure 6As shown, a rectangular rod is provided on both sides of the equipment mounting plate 4, and the thickness of the rectangular rod is equal to the height of the empty slot in the middle of the guide rail 3 and can slide back and forth inside it. When in use, the pull rods 6 on the left and right sides of the front of the equipment mounting plate 4 can be held and pulled forward. During this process, the rectangular rods on the left and right sides of the equipment mounting plate 4 will slide forward stably in the empty slot in the middle of the guide rail 3, ensuring the stability of the equipment mounting plate 4 when adjusting.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when the equipment mounting plate 4 slides to the frontmost side, it will be located outside the distribution box body 1. When the equipment mounting plate 4 slides to the rearmost side, its rear outer wall will be tightly attached to the front outer walls of the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 8, and the front end face of the pull rod 6 will be located in the same vertical plane as the front side face of the distribution box body 1. Therefore, when the equipment mounting plate 4 is pulled to the frontmost side, the equipment instrument can be installed. After installation, the equipment mounting plate 4 can be pushed backward to the rearmost side. At this time, the front ends of the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 8 will be tightly attached to the rear outer wall of the equipment mounting plate 4 and connected to the internal cavity through the circular holes on the left and right sides of the rear of the equipment mounting plate 4. Then, the two box doors 2 are closed and locked. At this time, the box door 2 will be tightly attached to the front end face of the pull rod 6, thereby limiting the forward and backward movement of the equipment mounting plate 4.
[0033] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a rectangular protrusion is provided at the top and bottom of the rectangular rods on the left and right sides of the equipment mounting plate 4, and a corresponding guide groove is also provided at the top and bottom of the empty slot in the middle of the guide rail 3. When in use, the pull rods 6 on the left and right sides of the front of the equipment mounting plate 4 can be held to pull it forward. During this process, the rectangular rods on the left and right sides of the equipment mounting plate 4 will slide forward steadily in the empty slot in the middle of the guide rail 3, and the rectangular protrusions at the top and bottom of the rectangular rods will also slide in the guide grooves at the top and bottom of the empty slot in the middle of the guide rail 3, thereby limiting the equipment mounting plate 4 to prevent it from moving too much forward and falling off.
[0034] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 4 As shown, a rectangular cavity is provided inside the equipment mounting plate 4, and a circular hole penetrating inside and outside is provided on the left and right sides of the rear of the equipment mounting plate 4. When the fan 10 is working, the cooling air will be blown into the air inlet cover 9, and then the cooling air in the air inlet cover 9 will enter the cavity inside the equipment mounting plate 4 through the air inlet pipe 7. The air entering the cavity of the equipment mounting plate 4 will flow to the right and be discharged outward through the air outlet pipe 8. Because part of the heat generated when the equipment instrument is working will be transferred to the equipment mounting plate 4, the heat can be taken away when the air flows to achieve the heat dissipation effect.
[0035] Example 2, based on Example 1, Figures 1-6As shown, an annular plate is provided on the outer side of the front end of the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 8, and the outer side of the annular plate is wrapped with a layer of rubber. After installation, the equipment mounting plate 4 can be pushed backward to the rear side. At this time, the front ends of the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 8 will be tightly attached to the rear outer wall of the equipment mounting plate 4 and connected to the internal cavity of the equipment mounting plate 4 through the circular holes on the left and right sides of the rear of the equipment mounting plate 4. The annular plates at the front ends of the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 8 and the rubber on their outer sides can enhance the sealing effect.
[0036] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: when in use, the distribution box body 1 can be fixed in the computer room of the data center. When the equipment instruments need to be installed, the two box doors 2 are first unlocked and opened, and then the pull rods 6 on the left and right sides of the front of the equipment installation plate 4 can be held to pull it forward. During this process, the rectangular rods on the left and right sides of the equipment installation plate 4 will slide forward steadily in the empty slot in the middle of the guide rail 3, and the rectangular protrusions at the top and bottom of the rectangular rods will also slide in the guide slots at the top and bottom of the empty slot in the middle of the guide rail 3, so that the equipment installation plate 4 can be limited to prevent it from moving forward too much and falling off. Finally, the equipment installation plate 4 will move to the outside of the distribution box body 1, and then the equipment instruments can be installed on the front side of the equipment installation rail 5. After installation, the equipment instruments will also be tightly attached to the front outer wall of the equipment installation plate 4. After installation, the equipment can be installed When the plate 4 is pushed backward to the rearmost side, the front ends of the air inlet duct 7 and the air outlet duct 8 will be tightly attached to the rear outer wall of the equipment mounting plate 4 and connected to the internal cavity through the circular holes on the left and right sides of the rear of the equipment mounting plate 4. Then the two doors 2 will be closed and locked. At this time, the door 2 will be tightly attached to the front end surface of the pull rod 6, thereby limiting the forward and backward movement of the equipment mounting plate 4. Then the fan 10 can be powered on and turned on. When the fan 10 is working, it will blow cooling air into the air inlet hood 9, and then the cooling air in the air inlet hood 9 will enter the cavity inside the equipment mounting plate 4 through the air inlet duct 7. The air entering the cavity of the equipment mounting plate 4 will flow to the right and be discharged outward through the air outlet duct 8. Because part of the heat generated when the equipment instrument is working will be transferred to the equipment mounting plate 4, the heat can be taken away when the air flows to achieve the heat dissipation effect.
