[0036] This application provides a heat exchanger cabinet, Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of a folding bracket provided in an embodiment of the present application installed in a cabinet in a folded state. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a folding bracket provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the folding bracket 100 includes a first bracket 10, the first bracket 10 includes a first bracket body 11, a first hinged arm 12 and a second hinged arm 13, one end of the first hinged arm 12 is used to be detachably connected to the cabinet 50, and the other end of the first hinged arm 12 is hingedly connected to one end of the first bracket body 11; the second hinged arm 13 includes a first support arm 131 and a second support arm 132, the first support arm 131 and the second support arm 132 are connected to form a preset angle, the end of the first support arm 131 away from the second support arm 132 is hingedly connected to the first bracket body 11, and the first support arm 131 or the second support arm 132 is also used to be detachably connected to the cabinet 50.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the folding bracket 100 is installed on the cabinet 50. The cabinet 50 body is also provided with a receiving cavity for installing a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger can be a plate heat exchanger, which can dissipate heat for heat-generating components (such as servers, etc.).
[0038] The folding bracket 100 further includes at least two first brackets 10 and at least one second bracket 20 , and the second bracket 20 is connected to the first bracket 10 .
[0039] In a specific embodiment, a plurality of parallel first brackets 10 can be installed on the side or other installation surface of the cabinet 50, and the first bracket body 11 of each first bracket 10 is connected in sequence through the second bracket 20. Specifically, a plurality of second brackets 20 are connected in sequence on the surface of the first bracket body 11 of the plurality of first brackets 10, and the second brackets 20 and the first brackets 10 are vertically cross-stacked to form a frame grid structure.
[0040] In some embodiments, the first bracket 10 and the second bracket 20 may be formed by round rods, square tubes, or channel steel structures. The processing method may be one-time stamping or machining. The folding bracket 100 may be made of stainless steel, aluminum alloy, or engineering plastics, etc., without limitation. To improve the stability and quality of the folding bracket 100, the folding bracket 100 is preferably made of stainless steel.
[0041] like Figure 3a 、 Figure 3b 、 Figure 4 As shown, two ends of the first bracket body 11 are respectively connected to the first hinge arm 12 and the second hinge arm 13 , and the first hinge arm 12 and the second hinge arm 13 are movably connected to the first bracket body 11 .
[0042] A hinge 121 is provided at one end of the first articulated arm 12. The hinge 121 allows the first articulated arm 12 to be movably connected to the cabinet 50. The other end of the first articulated arm 12 is movably connected to one end of the first bracket body 11. The connection between the first articulated arm 12 and the first bracket body 11 can be by a hinge, a rotating shaft, or the like, which is not limited herein. When one end of the first articulated arm 12 is articulatedly connected to the cabinet 50, the folding bracket 100 can be connected to the cabinet 50 via the first articulated arm 12 during transportation of the heat exchange equipment, without the need to remove the folding bracket 100. Upon arrival at the installation site, the folding bracket 100 is unfolded for ease of transportation and installation.
[0043] The first arm 131 and the second arm 132 of the second articulated arm 13 are connected to form a predetermined angle. For example, the predetermined angle can be 60 degrees, 80 degrees, 90 degrees, 120 degrees, etc., without limitation. In some preferred embodiments, the angle between the first arm 131 and the second arm 132 is 90 degrees, thereby enhancing the overall structural strength. The first arm 131 is movably connected to one end of the first bracket body 11, and the second arm 132 is detachably connected to the cabinet 50.
[0044] In the present application, the second articulated arm 13 is formed by bending and connecting the first arm 131 and the second arm 132. The user can choose one of them to be detachably connected to the mechanism 50 according to actual needs. This can not only meet the usage scenarios of the folding bracket 100 in different working conditions, but also realize rapid switching between the folded state and the unfolded state, which can reduce production costs and improve ease of use.
[0045] When the second articulated arm 13 is connected to the mounting surface of the cabinet 50, it pushes the first bracket body 11 to move and bend the first articulated arm 12, allowing the first bracket body 11 to move parallel to and away from the mounting surface of the cabinet 50. When the first articulated arm 12 moves to a position perpendicular to the mounting surface of the cabinet 50 and the first bracket body 11, the distance between the first bracket body 11 and the mounting surface of the cabinet 50 is maximized. At this point, the second arm 132 is in contact with the mounting surface of the cabinet 50, and the first bracket 10 switches to the deployed state. The multiple second brackets 20 and multiple first brackets 10 are stacked crosswise to form a grid structure that can also be deployed and expanded.
[0046] When the second articulated arm 13 is connected to the mounting surface of the cabinet 50 and the connection between the second support arm 132 and the cabinet 50 is released, the first bracket body 11 is acted upon by gravity and drives the first articulated arm 12 to fit toward the mounting surface of the cabinet 50, so that the first bracket body 11 and the first support arm 131 can also fit the mounting surface of the cabinet 50, the second support arm 132 is perpendicular to the mounting surface of the cabinet 50, the first bracket 10 switches to a folded state, and multiple second brackets 20 and multiple first brackets 10 are cross-stacked to form a frame grid structure that can also be folded and folded.
[0047] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of the folding bracket 100, the first arm 131 and the second arm 132 of the second hinged arm 13 are respectively provided with a plurality of strip holes 133. The strip holes 133 are used to pass through connecting parts (not shown). The connecting parts can be structures such as screws and bolts, which are not limited here. The first arm 131 or the second arm 132 is fixed to the mounting surface of the cabinet 50 using the connecting parts to facilitate installation and removal. Correspondingly, the mounting surface of the cabinet 50 will also have some pre-set installation holes. In order to adapt to the tolerances of various parts, the strip holes 133 can improve the installation convenience of the folding bracket 100.
[0048] In order to improve the stability of the entire folding bracket 100 , the length of the first support arm 131 is the same as that of the first hinge arm 12 .
[0049] In some specific embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a first rotation axis 135 and a second rotation axis 136 are provided at the connection between the first bracket body 11 and the first hinged arm 12, and the second hinged arm 13. The first rotation axis 135 is provided at the connection between the first bracket body 11 and the first hinged arm 12, while the second rotation axis 136 is provided at the connection between the first bracket body 11 and the second hinged arm 13. Furthermore, the first rotation axis 135 and the second rotation axis 136 are located in the same plane of the first bracket body 11. Therefore, the first hinged arm 12 and the second hinged arm 13 can rotate and swing about the first rotation axis 135 and the second rotation axis 136. In other embodiments, the first rotation axis 135 and the second rotation axis 136 can also be axles, pins, or other structures.
[0050] Furthermore, the first bracket 10 also includes a first locking member 138. A plurality of locking holes 137 are provided on the surface of the first bracket body 11 near the first rotation axis 135 and the second rotation axis 136. The first locking member 138 is installed in the locking hole 137. The locking hole 137 can be a circular hole structure, and the first locking member 138 can be a bolt, a screw, etc. In the above scheme, the first locking member 138 cooperates with the locking hole 137, so that the first hinged arm 12 and the first bracket body 11 can maintain a fixed bending angle when in the folded state. Similarly, the first arm 131 of the second hinged arm 13 and the first bracket body 11 can also maintain a fixed bending angle, such as 90 degrees, to enhance the stability of the folding bracket 100 in the folded state and limit its displacement, swinging, etc.
[0051] In some embodiments, as Figure 6As shown, the second bracket 20 includes a second bracket body 21 and a support step portion 211. The support step portion 211 is connected to one end of the second bracket body 21. The support step portion 211 can be a boss, groove or perforation structure.
[0052] The support step portion 211 is provided with a mounting hole 2111 , and the support step portion 211 is detachably connected to the cabinet 50 through the mounting hole 2111 .
[0053] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of the second bracket 20, the first bracket body 11 is further provided with a plurality of first fixing holes 111, and the second bracket body 21 is provided with a plurality of second fixing holes 212. The second fixing holes 212 cooperate with the first fixing holes 111, and the connecting parts pass through the second fixing holes and the first fixing holes 111, so that the second bracket 20 and the first bracket 10 are assembled to form a folding bracket 100. The connecting parts can be screws, bolts, etc. The first bracket body 11 is provided with a plurality of third fixing holes 112 for installing a plurality of fixing parts 34. The fixing parts 34 are used to fix the spray pipe 30. The fixing parts 34 can be bolts, slots, clamps or other structures. The spray pipe 30 includes a manifold 31, a plurality of parallel branch pipes 32 and a spray head 33, wherein the plurality of branch pipes 32 can be arranged along an extension direction parallel to the second bracket body 21.
[0054] When the folding bracket 100 is unfolded, the spray pipe 30 connects the branch pipes 32 to the first bracket body 11 via the fixing member 34. The header 31 is mounted on the support step 211 at one end of the second bracket body 21. The branch pipes 32 are connected and communicate with the header 31. The spray head 33 is mounted on the branch pipes 32. It is understood that in other embodiments, the spray pipe 30 can also be fixed to the first bracket body 11 in other ways.
[0055] When the folding bracket 100 is in the folded state, in order to support the spray pipe 30 , support blocks 51 are further provided at both ends of the cabinet 50 , and the support blocks 51 are used to carry the spray pipe 30 .
[0056] In a specific embodiment, installing multiple spray pipes 30 will increase the spray area. According to the heating conditions and heat dissipation requirements of the equipment in the cabinet 50, the two side surfaces, top or end surfaces of the entire cabinet 50 are used as installation surfaces, and the folding bracket 100 and the spray pipes 30 set on the folding bracket 100 are installed, which can further enhance the heat dissipation effect.
[0057] Please continue reading Figure 1The folding bracket 100 is in a folded state, and the first bracket body 11 of the first bracket 10 and the first hinge arm 12 and the second hinge arm 13 are integrally extended in the length direction. The folding bracket 100 occupies less space in the width direction of the cabinet 50, which is convenient for transportation, can reduce the phenomenon of equipment being too wide during transportation, and reduce transportation costs. Figure 2 As shown, the folding bracket 100 is in an unfolded state, and the first arm 131 and the second arm 132 form a preset angle, so that the first bracket body 11 is away from the cabinet 50 body, so that the spray head 33 on the spray pipe 30 installed on the folding bracket 100 can increase the spraying area and achieve efficient heat dissipation of the heat exchange equipment.
[0058] The folding bracket 100 in the above solution can be folded and unfolded. It can be folded during transportation and unfolded at the equipment use site. It can meet the transportation and use requirements of such heat exchanger cabinets and refrigeration equipment and reduce transportation costs.
[0059] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
