Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of servers, in particular to a limiting mechanism of a server rack. Background Art
[0002] A server is a type of computer that runs faster, handles higher loads, and is more expensive than a typical computer. Servers provide computing or application services to other clients on a network, and their efficiency directly impacts the efficiency of the entire network. To ensure stable operation, servers are typically placed in racks. However, existing server racks lack retaining mechanisms. Accidental impacts with external forces can cause the racks to move, impacting the server's operating efficiency. Furthermore, collisions with other objects during movement can damage the servers placed on them, shortening their service life.
[0003] Secondly, since multiple servers are placed on the existing server rack, the servers generate a lot of heat during operation. The heat dissipation mechanism inside the server will dissipate the heat inside the server, causing heat to accumulate in the rack. If this heat is not dissipated in time, it will affect the heat dissipation effect of the server, thereby affecting the normal operation of the server. Utility Model Content

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] Example 1:
[0028] See also Figure 1-6 The two ends of the two bidirectional screws 5 pass through the moving chamber 4 and are connected with a transmission belt structure 13 between the rotating shaft 12 and the rotating shaft 13. A heat dissipation chamber 14 is provided on the upper end of the limit seat 1, and two fans 15 are movably provided in the heat dissipation chamber 14.
[0029] In this embodiment, four moving wheels 16 that cooperate with the moving grooves 3 are provided at the lower end of the rack body 10. The rack body 10 is pushed to rotate the moving wheels 16, thereby moving the rack body 10 along the moving grooves 3 to the limiting seat 1.
[0030] In this embodiment, a rotating shaft 17 is provided on both sides of the fan 15 . The rotating shaft 17 is rotatably connected to the heat dissipation chamber 14 . When the rotating shaft 17 rotates, the rotating shaft 17 drives the fan 15 to rotate in the heat dissipation chamber 14 .
[0031] In this embodiment, an electric push rod 18 is provided in the heat dissipation chamber 14, and a rack 19 is provided at the driving end of the electric push rod 18. The rack 19 is slidably connected to the heat dissipation chamber 14 through a track structure. The rack 19 is meshed with two first gears 20, and the two first gears 20 are respectively provided on two rotating shafts 17. When the electric push rod 18 is started, the electric push rod 18 pushes the rack 19 to move along the sliding connection with the heat dissipation chamber 14, and the rack 19 drives the two first gears 20 to rotate, and the first gear 20 drives the rotating rod 12 and the fan 15 to rotate. When the electric push rod 18 pulls the rack 19, the fan 15 rotates in the opposite direction. This operation is repeated, so that the fan 15 swings back and forth while starting to blow air.
[0032] In this embodiment, a turning handle 21 is provided at one end of the turning rod 12 , and a second gear 22 is provided on the turning rod 12 . When the turning handle 21 is rotated, the turning handle 21 drives the turning rod 12 and the second gear 22 to rotate.
[0033] In this embodiment, a support plate 23 is provided on one side of the limit seat 1, and two limit rods 24 are symmetrically provided on the upper end of the support plate 23. The two limit rods 24 are both plugged and connected with a fixed block 25 that cooperates with the second gear 22. The upper end of each limit rod 24 passes through the fixed block 25 and is connected to the limit plate 26, pushing the fixed block 25 downward, so that the fixed block 25 moves downward along the two limit rods 24 and separates from the second gear 22.
[0034] In this embodiment, a spring 27 is provided on the movable sleeve of each limit rod 24, and the spring 27 is arranged between the fixed block 25 and the support plate 23. When the fixed block 25 moves downward, the spring 27 is compressed. When the fixed block 25 is released, the fixed block 25 moves back to its original position under the action of the spring 27 and fixes the second gear 22.
[0035] Example 2:
[0036] In summary, when in use, multiple servers are placed on the rack body 10, and the rack body 10 is pushed to rotate the moving wheel 16, thereby moving the rack body 10 along the moving groove 3 to the limit seat 1, and two of the moving wheels 16 are moved to one end of the moving groove 3, pushing the fixed block 25 downward, so that the fixed block 25 moves downward along the two limit rods 24 and separates from the second gear 22, and the spring 27 is compressed. At this time, the handle 21 can be turned, and the handle 21 drives the rotating rod 12 and the second gear 22 to rotate, and the rotating rod 12 drives the two bidirectional screws 5 through the transmission belt structure 13 When rotating at the same time, the rotation of each bidirectional screw 5 will drive the two moving blocks 6 to move in adjacent directions along the sliding connection with the moving chamber 4, and the moving block 6 drives the pushing rod 7 to rotate, so that the pushing rod 7 rotates and pushes the pushing block 8 to move in the direction close to the frame body 10, and the pushing block 8 drives the inserting block 9 to move, so that the inserting block 9 is inserted into the slot 11 of the frame body 10, thereby limiting and fixing the frame body 10, loosening the fixing block 25, and under the action of the spring 27, the fixing block 25 moves back to its original position and fixes the second gear 22, thereby fixing the rotating rod 12.
[0037] Example 3:
[0038] In summary, when in use, the electric push rod 18 is started, and the electric push rod 18 pushes the rack 19 to move along the sliding connection with the heat dissipation chamber 14. The rack 19 drives the two first gears 20 to rotate, and the first gear 20 drives the rotating rod 12 and the fan 15 to rotate. When the electric push rod 18 pulls the rack 19, the fan 15 rotates in the opposite direction. This operation is repeated, so that the fan 15 swings back and forth while starting to blow air, thereby blowing air and dissipating heat to the rack body 10.

For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is given priority. The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with this technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
