[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The present application embodiment discloses a server air guide structure based on a memory slot 22, comprising an air guide assembly 1 located on a server, the server comprising a main board 2, a CPU mounting portion 21 and a memory slot 22, the CPU mounting portion 21 and the memory slot 22 are both mounted on the main board 2, at least one side of the CPU mounting portion 21 is provided with a plurality of memory slots 22, the air guide assembly 1 is connected with the memory slot 22 in plug-in mode, and the air guide assembly 1 is mounted on different memory slots 22 to adjust the position of the air guide assembly 1 relative to the CPU mounting portion 21.

[0027] Specifically, this embodiment is applicable to the application scenario where only one CPU is installed in a dual-CPU motherboard 2 server. In this scenario, it is necessary to fill the air guide structure in the position where the CPU and memory stick are not installed to improve the air duct inside the server chassis. The main purpose of the air guide structure is to optimize the air flow inside the server and improve the heat dissipation efficiency, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the server. In this embodiment, by plugging the air guide assembly 1 into the memory slot 22, the position of the air guide assembly 1 can be flexibly adjusted according to the position of the memory slot 22 to maintain the optimal air flow path. This design ensures that no matter what size the CPU is, the air guide assembly 1 can be installed correctly and the heat dissipation performance of the server can be guaranteed.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the air guide assembly 1 includes a plug-in board 11 and a plurality of air guide plates 12 , and the plug-in board 11 and the air guide plates 12 are an integrated structure.

[0029] Specifically, the plug-in board 11 is the base part of the air guide assembly 1, which is used to plug into the server memory slot 22 to fix the position of the air guide assembly 1. The plug-in board 11 has a size and shape that matches the memory slot 22 to ensure a stable connection. The air guide plate 12 is an extension of the plug-in board 11, which is used to guide the air flow inside the server. These air guide plates 12 can have different shapes and sizes to adapt to different heat dissipation requirements inside the server. In this embodiment, the air guide plate 12 is designed to be an integrated structure with the plug-in board 11. The integrated structure design makes it possible for there to be no gap or looseness between the plug-in board 11 and the air guide plate 12, thereby improving the overall stability and reliability of the air guide assembly 1. This design also simplifies the manufacturing and assembly process of the air guide assembly 1 and reduces production costs.

[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, the number of air guide components 1 is two, and two identical air guide components 1 form a split air guide structure. The two air guide components 1 are connected in the form of a "finger buckle", and there is an adjustment gap between the two, so that they can be compatible with different CPU models and different memory slot 22 spacings.

[0031] It is understandable that in other embodiments, the number of air guide components 1 can be one or more than two, etc., and can be specifically set according to the specific situation of the server.

[0032] like Figure 1-3 As shown, both sides of the plug board 11 are provided with plug-in pieces 111 , and the plug-in pieces 111 are plugged into the memory slots 22 .

[0033] Specifically, as the basic part of the air guide assembly 1, the plug-in board 11 not only provides a platform for connection with the air guide plate 12, but also has plug-in tabs 111 designed on both sides thereof. These plug-in tabs 111 are precisely processed into a size and shape that matches the memory slot 22. The plug-in tabs 111 are protruding parts on the plug-in board 11, which are used to form a plug-in connection with the memory slot 22. When installing the air guide assembly 1, the user only needs to align the plug-in tabs 111 on both sides of the plug-in board 11 with the memory slot 22 of the server and then gently push it in. The plug-in tabs 111 will slide along the guide part of the slot until they are fully inserted and locked in the slot. This design makes the installation process of the air guide assembly 1 simple and quick, without the need for additional tools or fasteners, and due to the precise match between the plug-in tabs 111 and the memory slot 22, the air guide assembly 1 can be applied to servers of different brands and models, which makes the air guide assembly 1 have a wider application prospect in the market.

[0034] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the insert 111 includes a snap-on portion 1111 and an inserting portion 1121 . The snap-on portion 1111 is located at the top of the insert 111 , and the inserting portion 1121 is located at the bottom of the insert 111 . The snap-on portion 1111 is connected to the buckles at both ends of the memory slot 22 , and the snap-on portion 1111 is inserted into the memory slot 22 .

[0035] Specifically, when installing the air guide assembly 1, the user only needs to align the plug-in board 11 with the memory slot 22 of the server, and align the plug-in portion 1121 of the plug-in piece 111 with the entrance of the slot. Then, gently push the plug-in board 11 to slide the plug-in piece 111 along the inside of the slot. During the sliding process, the snap-in portion 1111 will contact the snaps at both ends of the memory slot 22, and form a snap-in connection with the snaps through elastic deformation or a sliding mechanism. Once the snap-in portion 1121 is fully inserted into the slot and locked in place, the air guide assembly 1 is installed. The snap-in connection between the snap-in portion 1111 and the two ends of the memory slot 22 ensures the stability of the plug-in piece 111 in the slot. Even if the server is subjected to vibration or impact during operation, the plug-in piece 111 can maintain its position unchanged, thereby ensuring the safety of the air guide assembly 1 and the server hardware.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the wind guide plate 12 is divided into a horizontal wind guide plate 121 and a vertical wind guide plate 122. The horizontal wind guide plate 121 guides the wind flow in the vertical direction, and the vertical wind guide plate 122 guides the wind flow in the horizontal direction.

[0037] Specifically, the horizontal air guide plate 121 and the vertical air guide plate 122 respectively guide the airflow blowing toward the position where the CPU and memory stick are not installed. The horizontal air guide plate 121 guides the airflow in the vertical direction so that the airflow flows toward the position where the CPU and memory stick are installed. The vertical air guide plate 122 guides the airflow in the horizontal direction so that the airflow also flows toward the position where the CPU and memory stick are installed. The design of the two ensures that the air duct in the chassis is not damaged when a single CPU is used, and can also effectively improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the CPU and memory stick on the other side.

[0038] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a clearance notch 1211 is provided at the bottom of the transverse air guide plate 121 close to the CPU mounting portion 21 , and the clearance notch 1211 cooperates with the CPU mounting portion 121 .

[0039] Specifically, during the installation of the air guide assembly 1, since the CPU mounting portion 21 in this embodiment does not have a CPU installed, the CPU mounting portion 21 has a large number of pins, and the CPU mounting portion 21 cannot directly contact the transverse air guide plate 121. Therefore, by providing a clearance notch 1211 in the CPU mounting portion 21, a gap is created between the bottom of the transverse air guide plate 121 and the CPU mounting portion 21, effectively preventing damage to the pins of the CPU mounting portion 21. Secondly, in the case where the CPU mounting portion 21 is provided with a CPU end cap, the size of the clearance notch 1211 is configured to be compatible with different CPU end caps, thereby improving the compatibility of the air guide assembly 1.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, a limiting portion 1212 is provided on a side of the avoidance gap 1211 away from the CPU installation portion 21 , and a height of the limiting portion 1212 is lower than a height of the CPU installation portion 21 .

[0041] Specifically, the main function of the stopper 1212 is to provide additional support and positioning, ensuring that the transverse air deflector 121 maintains a stable position after installation. Because it is lower than the CPU mounting portion 21, the stopper 1212 does not interfere with the CPU mounting portion 21, while effectively preventing the transverse air deflector 121 from shifting or tilting during installation.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, a support portion 1213 is provided at the bottom of the transverse air guide plate 121 away from the CPU installation portion 21 , and the support portion 1213 is located above the memory slot 22 .

[0043] Specifically, the support portion 1213 is a support plate for providing additional support and stability, which not only ensures that the transverse air guide plate 121 remains stable during installation and use, but also prevents interference with the memory slot 22 or other components.

[0044] In an optional embodiment, the position adjustment range of the air guide assembly 1 on the memory slot 22 is 0 to 12 mm.

[0045] Specifically, the position of the air guide assembly 1 is adjusted within a range of 0 to 12 mm, so that it can adapt to the slight differences in CPU size and memory slot 22 of servers of different brands and models. This adaptability makes the air guide assembly 1 have a wider application prospect in the market.

[0046] In an optional embodiment, the height of the air guide plate 12 on the CPU mounting portion 21 is adjustable.

[0047] Specifically, the height-adjustable air deflector 12 allows the user to dynamically adjust it according to needs. This flexibility allows the user to optimize the heat dissipation solution according to the server's load conditions, working environment or heat dissipation requirements.

[0048] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, and such modifications or substitutions are intended to be within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be subject to the scope of protection of the claims.
