[0030] In the present embodiment, in order to facilitate the understanding of the installation of the ear part and the actual application scene, the ear part is installed on the server for operation as an example. Other electronic devices that need to use the ear part, such as rack-type disk array devices, reinforced mainboards, industrial computers, large computers and switches, etc. Electronic devices can achieve the same abnormal state feedback function after installing the ear part, so the present embodiment does not affect the protection scope of the claims.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] The present embodiment provides an abnormal state feedback kit, as shown in Figures 1-5 which mainly includes two parts of the ear part 1 and the external part 2. In the present embodiment, the ear part 1 is mainly installed on the side of the server, as shown in Figure 7The external part 2 is independent of the ear part 1, so that the external part 2 can be linked with the ear part 1 to obtain the server abnormal state information only when the server has a problem, and the abnormal state information is displayed to the user through the display module 202-2 and the like. In general, the external part 2 can be separated from the ear part 1 to reduce the occupied space of the server during daily use and the like.
[0033] The ear part 1 is a main server abnormal state information transmission tool, as shown in Figures 1-2 The ear part 1 is a main server abnormal state information transmission tool, as shown in
[0034] The external part 2 is a main server abnormal state information receiving tool and an analysis tool, which comprises an external module shell 201, an external board card assembly 202 installed in the external module shell 201, and a connection kit 3. The external board card assembly 202 comprises a data processing chip 202-1 and a display module 202-2, which are linked with each other. One end of the connection kit 3 is connected with the data processing chip 202-1, and the other end is movably connected with the external data transmission port 102-1. The movable connection mode includes a plug-in connection mode and the like. In this structure, when the external part 2 receives abnormal state information, the data processing chip 202-1 and the external data transmission port 102-1 can be linked with each other through the connection kit 3 to transmit related server information data. After the display module 202-2 receives the information data transmitted by the ear part 1, the information data can be processed and transmitted to the display module 202-2. Finally, the display module 202-2 embedded in the first display opening 201-1 of the external module shell 201 can inform the user of the current state of the server in the form of numbers, texts and the like, so as to realize the interaction between the user and the server.
[0035] Preferably, as shown in Figures 3-5As shown, the external card assembly 202 also contains a data receiving port 202-3, which is linked with the data processing chip 202-1. Correspondingly, the connection kit 3 can be separated from the external part 2, which contains a first interface 301 and a second interface 302, and the first interface 301 and the second interface 302 can be linked by a cable or a PCB board. At this time, the connection kit 3 will be mainly connected with the external data transmission port 102-1 through the first interface 301, and connected with the data receiving port 202-3 through the second interface 302. At the same time, in order to adapt to the plug-in connection and other active connection methods between the second interface 302 and the data receiving port 202-3, the external module shell 201 also has a second external opening 201-2, so that the data receiving port 202-3 can be connected with the outside through the second external opening 201-2.
[0036] Preferably, as shown in the figure, Figure 1 The external data transmission port 102-1 is a MICRO USB interface, which is compatible with the USB 2.0 standard, and its data transmission rate can reach 480 Mbps, which can basically meet the transmission of abnormal state information data of servers and other electronic devices.
[0037] Preferably, as shown in the figure, Figures 4-5 The data receiving port 202-3 is a USB interface, which can provide appropriate data transmission rate according to different devices and needs, and ensure the efficiency of data receiving.
[0038] Preferably, as shown in the figure, Figure 6 The connection kit 3 also contains a hard shell 303, and the first interface 301 and the second interface 302 are fixedly installed at both ends of the hard shell 303. The overall length of the connection kit 3 under this structure is short but hard. Compared with the connection kit 3 structure using a soft long cable to connect the first interface 301 and the second interface 302, after the external part 2 is installed on the hanging ear part 1, no additional fixing is needed, which is conducive to the user to perform other operations; at the same time, the soft long cable will certainly be bent during multiple storage processes, which not only easily causes damage to the cable itself, but also has a greater possibility of causing damage to the connection between the cable and the first interface 301 and the second interface 302, thereby increasing the probability of distortion of the abnormal state information data of the server and other electronic devices, which is not conducive to the abnormal state analysis of the server and other electronic devices. The structure can ensure the stable connection between the first interface 301 and the second interface 302, and reduce the above risks.
[0039] Preferably, the display module 202-2 includes a digital display module 202-2a and / or a display screen module. Both the digital display module 202-2a and / or the display screen module are linked to the data processing chip 202-1, capable of receiving relevant information data processed and converted by the data processing chip 202-1, and displaying it to the user in different formats. Specifically, the digital display module 202-2a can display information in the form of digital codes; the display screen module can display information in the form of text. If both the digital display module 202-2a and the display screen module are provided, they can corroborate each other, and the display screen module can display more information, including relevant text content describing the problem, which helps users understand the current status of the server more intuitively. Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, only the digital display module 202-2a is used.
[0040] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the ear-mounted part 1 also includes a power button 103 connected to the motherboard of the electronic device. In this embodiment, it is convenient for users to directly perform power on / off operations on the server.
[0041] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the ear-mounted part 1 also includes a reset button 104 connected to the motherboard of the electronic device. In this embodiment, it is convenient for users to directly restore the server to its default settings, restart it, and perform other tasks.
[0042] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the ear-mounted part 1 also includes an indicator light 105 connected to the motherboard of the electronic device. In this embodiment, retaining this indicator light structure allows the user to quickly locate the malfunctioning server from the server group before the external display part 2 is connected, thereby speeding up the server repair and maintenance work.
[0043] Example 2:
[0044] This embodiment provides a server, on one side of which is installed the ear-hook 1 from the abnormal state feedback kit described in Embodiment 1, and the ear-hook 1 is also equipped with an external display part 2. For example... Figure 7 In the state shown, the server has the ear-hook 1 installed. Under normal circumstances, the external display 2 is separated from the ear-hook 1. Only when abnormal status feedback is required is the external display 2 connected to the ear-hook 1 via the connection kit 3.
