[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0025] This application discloses a video surveillance data storage device. (Refer to...) Figure 1-6 A video surveillance data storage device includes a storage box 1 and a door 2 hinged to the outer wall of the front of the storage box 1. A plurality of air inlets 3 are provided on one side of the outer wall of the storage box 1 for air intake, and a plurality of air outlets 4 are provided on the side of the outer wall of the storage box 1 away from the plurality of air inlets 3 for air exhaust. A heat dissipation component is provided on the inner wall of the storage box 1.

[0026] The heat dissipation assembly includes an exhaust fan 5 and an exhaust fan 6. Multiple exhaust fans 5 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the storage box 1 on the side where the air inlet 3 is located, and multiple exhaust fans 6 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the storage box 1 on the side where the air outlet 4 is located. Multiple exhaust fans 5 and multiple exhaust fans 6 correspond to form a heat dissipation air duct.

[0027] The heat dissipation assembly also includes a semiconductor cooler 7 embedded in the inner wall of the storage box 1. The cold end of the semiconductor cooler 7 is located inside the storage box 1, and its hot end is located outside the storage box 1. Multiple heat dissipation fins 8 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the hot end of the semiconductor cooler 7, and two cooling fans 9 are installed on the outer wall of the multiple heat dissipation fins 8.

[0028] Multiple adjustment brackets 10 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the storage box 1. Multiple mounting brackets 11 are installed on the outer walls of the multiple adjustment brackets 10. A data storage device 12 is fixedly installed on the top outer wall of the mounting bracket 11 by screws.

[0029] Multiple mounting brackets 11 are fixedly connected to both ends of an adjusting block 13. The adjusting block 13 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting bracket 10. An adjusting mechanism is installed inside the adjusting block 13. Multiple adjusting holes 17 are opened on the outer wall of the adjusting bracket 10.

[0030] The adjustment mechanism includes two movable slots 14 formed on the inner wall of the adjustment block 13. Movable blocks 15 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the two movable slots 14. A locking post 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable block 15 facing the adjustment frame 10. The end of the locking post 16 away from the movable block 15 passes through the adjustment block 13 and is adapted to be inserted into multiple adjustment holes 17.

[0031] A spring 21 is also installed inside the movable groove 14. One end of the spring 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable block 15 away from the locking post 16, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 14.

[0032] Two clearance grooves 18 are provided on the top outer wall of the adjusting block 13. The clearance grooves 18 are correspondingly connected to the movable groove 14. A connecting rod 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the clearance groove 18. The bottom end of the connecting rod 19 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the movable block 15. A handle 20 is fixedly connected to the top of each pair of connecting rods 19.

[0033] The implementation principle of the video surveillance data storage device in this application embodiment is as follows: In use, several data storage units 12 are fixed above multiple mounting brackets 11 by screws. By adjusting the mechanism, two handles 20 are moved inward. The handles 20 drive two connecting rods 19 to slide to the right on the inner wall of the clearance groove 18. The connecting rods 19 then drive the movable block 15 to slide to the right on the inner wall of the movable groove 14. At this time, the movable block 15 drives the locking pin 16 to disengage from the adjustment hole 17 at the current position. The two adjustment blocks 13 are no longer fixed. The adjustment block 13 is driven to slide up and down on the outer wall of the adjustment bracket 10 to adjust the appropriate height. After the adjustment is completed, the locking pin 16 is aligned with the adjustment hole 17 at the new position. The handles 20 are released, and the movable block 15 is reset under the elastic force of the spring 21. The movable block 15 drives the locking pin 16 to re-engage with the adjustment hole 17 at the new position, thus fixing the adjusted block 13 with the adjusted height. At this time, the mounting bracket 11 is also fixed, so that the spacing between multiple mounting brackets 11 can be adjusted to ensure that each layer of data storage units 12 has sufficient heat dissipation space.

[0034] Next, an external power supply is used to power all the electrical components inside the device, and the device is started by an external controller. When multiple data storage devices 12 are working, the storage box 1 accumulates heat and rises. At this time, multiple exhaust fans 5 are started, which introduce outside air into the storage box 1 through multiple air inlets 3. Then, multiple exhaust fans 6 are started, which exhaust the air in the storage box 1 through multiple air outlets 4, thereby forming a stable heat dissipation airflow channel, so that the high temperature accumulated in the storage box 1 can be stably discharged. At the same time, a semiconductor cooler 7 is started. The semiconductor cooler 7 is connected to an external DC power supply. The cold end of the semiconductor cooler 7 is cooled, which forces the storage box 1 to cool down, further reducing the temperature of the multiple data storage devices 12 when they are working. The high temperature generated by the multiple data storage devices 12 exchanges heat with the cold end of the semiconductor cooler 7. With the airflow channel formed by the multiple exhaust fans 5 and the exhaust fans 6, the temperature can be quickly discharged.

[0035] It is worth noting that while the cold end of the semiconductor cooler 7 is cooling, its hot end generates heat. The heat is directed to the outside of the storage box 1 through multiple heat dissipation fins 8. At this time, the cooling fan 9 is activated. The cooling fan 9 rotates and blows the outside air onto the surface of the multiple heat dissipation fins 8 in a forced convection manner, so that the heat on the surface of the heat dissipation fins 8 is quickly dissipated.
