[0078] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 . Figure 1 is a perspective view of a fluid supply module according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 is Figure 1 an exploded view of the fluid supply module of Figure 3 is Figure 1 a sectional view of the fluid supply module of
[0079] The fluid supply module 10 of the present embodiment is, for example, a hot-plug cooling fluid dispensing unit. The hot-plug means that the system component is directly plugged in when the system is in operation, and the system can still operate normally without interruption. The fluid supply module 10 is adapted to be installed in a cabinet (not shown). The cabinet is, for example, a box of a reservoir pumping unit (RPU), and the fluid supply module 10 is used to connect to a reservoir container (not shown) in the cabinet. The reservoir container is, for example, a water tank. The fluid supply module 10 is used to contain a cooling fluid (not shown) and includes a containing shell 11, a fluid supply body 12, and a locking assembly 13.
[0080] The containing shell 11 includes a shell member 111, two guide posts 112, two first fluid connectors 113, and a first electrical connector 114. The two guide posts 112, the two first fluid connectors 113, and the first electrical connector 114 are disposed on the shell member 111. The fluid supply body 12 includes a fluid supply main body 121, two second fluid connectors 122, and a second electrical connector 123. The fluid supply main body 121 is removably installed on the shell member 111 and includes an outer shell 1211, a pump 1212, two connecting tubes 1213, an electrical driver 1214, and a control circuit board 1215. The two second fluid connectors 122 and the second electrical connector 123 are disposed on the outer shell 1211. The two second fluid connectors 122 are used to communicate with the two first fluid connectors 113, respectively. The second electrical connector 123 is used to electrically connect with the first electrical connector 114.
[0081] The pump 1212 is disposed in the outer shell 1211. The two connecting tubes 1213 are used to connect the two second fluid connectors 122 and the pump 1212. The electrical driver 1214 is disposed in the outer shell 1211 and electrically connected with the pump 1212 and the second electrical connector 123. The control circuit board 1215 is electrically connected with the second electrical connector 123 and the electrical driver 1214. By transmitting a control signal to the electrical driver 1214 through the control circuit board 1215, the pump 1212 is driven by the electrical driver 1214, so that the cooling fluid flows by the driving of the pump 1212.
[0082] The locking assembly 13 includes two latching members 131, two connecting rods 132, two handle members 133, and a grip member 134. Since the two guide posts 112 of the housing 11 are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides inside the housing 111, and the two latching members 131, two handle members 133, and two connecting rods 132 of the locking assembly 13 are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides inside the outer shell 1211 of the fluid supply body 121, and the structures of each guide post 112, each latching member 131, each handle member 133, and each connecting rod 132 are the same, the following description will focus on one guide post 112, one latching member 131, one handle member 133, and one connecting rod 132.
[0083] The latching member 131 is pivotally mounted on a portion of the housing 1211 of the fluid supply body 121. Specifically, the latching member 131 includes a main body portion 1311, a latching protrusion 1312, and a resisting protrusion 1313. The main body portion 1311 is pivotally mounted on a portion of the housing 1211 of the fluid supply body 121 near the latching protrusion 1312 and the resisting protrusion 1313. The latching protrusion 1312 and the resisting protrusion 1313 protrude from opposite sides of the main body portion 1311. Specifically, the guide post 112 has a latching groove 1121. The latching protrusion 1312 is detachably engaged with the latching groove 1121. The resisting protrusion 1313 is abutted by the end of the guide post 112 away from the housing 111.
[0084] Please refer to both at the same time for now. Figure 9 . Figure 9 for Figure 1 This is a partially enlarged cross-sectional view of the fluid supply module before the snap-fit protrusion engages with the snap-fit groove. Specifically, the snap-fit groove 1121 has a first abutting surface 11211. The end of the guide post 112 away from the housing 111 has a second abutting surface 1122. The first abutting surface 11211 faces away from the second abutting surface 1122. The snap-fit protrusion 1312 has a third abutting surface 13121. The abutting protrusion 1313 has a fourth abutting surface 13131. The third abutting surface 13121 faces the fourth abutting surface 13131. When the abutting protrusion 1313 is abutted by the end of the guide post 112 away from the housing 111, the second abutting surface 1122 abuts against the fourth abutting surface 13131. When the buckle protrusion 1312 is engaged with the buckle groove 1121, the third abutting surface 13121 abuts against the first abutting surface 11211.
[0085] The connecting rod 132 has a first pivot end 1321 and a second pivot end 1322. The main body 1311 is pivotally mounted on the side away from the latching protrusion 1312 and the abutting protrusion 1313 at the first pivot end 1321, so that the connecting rod 132 can drive the abutting protrusion 1313 to be abutted by the end of the guide post 112 away from the housing 111 to help the latching member 131 rotate, thereby causing the latching protrusion 1312 to engage with the latching groove 1121, and causing the two second fluid connectors 122 to be connected to the two first fluid connectors 113 respectively, and causing the second electrical connector 123 to be connected to the first electrical connector 114.
[0086] The handle 133 is pivotally mounted at another location on the outer casing 1211 of the fluid supply body 121. Specifically, the handle 133 includes a pivot portion 1331, an extension portion 1332, and an operating portion 1333. The pivot portion 1331 is pivotally mounted at another location on the outer casing 1211. That is, the rotation axis of the latching member 131 is not coaxial with the rotation axis of the handle 133. The extension portion 1332 and the operating portion 1333 are connected to the pivot portion 1331 and protrude in opposite directions. The extension portion 1332 is pivotally mounted at the second pivot end 1322. The operating portion 1333 is used to drive the handle 133 to rotate relative to the outer casing 1211, which in turn drives the connecting rod 132 and the latching member 131 to rotate, causing the latching member 131 to engage with the latching groove 1121. The extension portion 1332 and the operating portion 1333 are not coaxial. The grip 134 connects to the two operating parts 1333 of the second handle 133, so that the grip 134 drives the second handle 133 together.
[0087] In summary, when the fluid supply body 12 is pushed into the housing 11, the handle 133 rotates relative to the fluid supply body 12 and the abutting protrusion 1313 is pushed against by the guide post 112 at the end away from the housing 111, so as to jointly drive the latching protrusion 1312 to engage with the latching groove 1121.
[0088] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 and Figure 5 . Figure 4 for Figure 1 A side view of the locking assembly and guide post of the fluid supply module. Figure 5 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the locking assembly and guide post of the fluid supply module from another side.
[0089] The first connecting line R1 has a length L1, for example, greater than or equal to 1.1 times the length L2 of the second connecting line R2. The extension portion 1332 is pivotally connected to the second pivot end 1322 and the main body portion 1311 is pivotally connected to the first pivot end 1321, and a third connecting line R3 is formed therebetween. The main body portion 1311 is pivotally connected to the first pivot end 1321 and the main body portion 1311 is pivotally connected to the housing 1211, and a fourth connecting line R4 is formed therebetween. The main body portion 1311 is pivotally connected to the housing 1211 and the buckle protrusion 1312 abuts against the buckle slot 1121, and a fifth connecting line R5 is formed therebetween. The main body portion 1311 is pivotally connected to the housing 1211 and the abutment protrusion 1313 abuts against the guide post 112, and a sixth connecting line R6 is formed therebetween. The length L4 of the fourth connecting line R4 is greater than or equal to 1.1 times the length L5 of the fifth connecting line R5, for example. The length L4 of the fourth connecting line R4 is greater than or equal to 1.1 times the length L6 of the sixth connecting line R6, for example.
[0090] In the present embodiment, the angle (not labeled) between the fifth connecting line R5 and the sixth connecting line R6 affects the abutment of the third abutment surface 13121 against the first abutment surface 11211 or the second abutment surface 1122 against the fourth abutment surface 13131, and further affects the disassembly of the fluid supply body 12 from the accommodation shell 11. The angle between the fifth connecting line R5 and the sixth connecting line R6 is greater than or equal to 10 degrees and less than or equal to 90 degrees, for example. Further, the angle between the fifth connecting line R5 and the sixth connecting line R6 is greater than or equal to 45 degrees and less than or equal to 90 degrees, for example. In detail, when the angle between the fifth connecting line R5 and the sixth connecting line R6 is 45 degrees, for example, the third abutment surface 13121 abuts against the first abutment surface 11211, so that the buckle protrusion 1312 is buckled in the buckle slot 1121. When the angle between the fifth connecting line R5 and the sixth connecting line R6 is 90 degrees, for example, the second abutment surface 1122 abuts against the fourth abutment surface 13131, so that the buckle protrusion 1312 is unbuckled from the buckle slot 1121. Through the foregoing structure, the buckle protrusion 1312 can be buckled in the buckle slot 1121 with less effort.
[0091] In the present embodiment, since the fluid supply module 10 is provided with the locking assembly 13, the clasp 131 of the locking assembly 13 includes the clasp protrusion 1312 and the abutting protrusion 1313, and the guide column 112 of the accommodation shell 11 has the clasp groove 1121, when the fluid supply body 12 is installed in or removed from the accommodation shell 11, it is not necessary to open the accommodation shell 11 and perform complicated assembly and disassembly steps through additional assembly and disassembly elements, but the two first fluid connectors 113 and the two second fluid connectors 122 can be connected or disconnected at one time, and the first electrical connector 114 and the second electrical connector 123 can be connected or disconnected at one time, through the clasp or unclasp of the clasp 131 and the guide column 112, to complete the assembly or disassembly of the fluid supply body 12. Further, the abutting protrusion 1313 helps the clasp 131 rotate, so that the clasp protrusion 1312 is buckled in the clasp groove 1121, which saves labor. In this way, the convenience of assembly and disassembly of the fluid supply module 10 can be improved.
[0092] In the present embodiment, the fluid supply body 121 can also include a fan 1216, and the shell 1211 of the fluid supply body 121 can also have a plurality of ventilation openings 12111. The fan 1216 is arranged in the shell 1211 and is used to form a cooling airflow through the ventilation openings 12111 to cool the space in the fluid supply body 121.
[0093] In the present embodiment, the clasp protrusion 1312 is buckled in the clasp groove 1121 by the combination of the clasp 131, the connecting rod 132 and the handle 133, but this is not limited. In other embodiments, the clasp protrusion can also be buckled in the clasp groove by the combination of other structures such as gears, chains, belt pulleys and screw rods.
[0094] Please see Figures 6 to 10 . Figure 6 For Figure 1 the fluid supply body of the fluid supply module is installed in the accommodation shell. Figure 7 For Figure 1 the abutting protrusion of the fluid supply module is abutted by the guide column. Figure 8 For Figure 1 the clasp protrusion of the fluid supply module is buckled in the clasp groove. Figure 10 For Figure 1 the clasp protrusion of the fluid supply module is buckled in the clasp groove.
[0095] When the user wants to install the fluid supply body 12 in the accommodation shell 11, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 , first, the fluid supply body 12 is pushed into the accommodation shell 11 along the direction A. Then, as shown inFigure 8 As shown, the handle member 134 is rotated along direction B. At this time, the second pivot end 1322 and the first pivot end 1321 of the link member 132 are driven by the handle member 134 to rotate along direction C and direction D respectively, and the buckle member 131 is driven by the link member 132 to rotate along direction E, so as to buckle the buckle member 131 in the buckle slot 1121 of the guide column 112.
[0096] In detail, as shown in Figure 9 When the buckle member 131 rotates along direction E, first, the resisting protrusion 1313 is resisted by the end of the guide column 112 away from the shell member 111 to help the buckle member 131 rotate. In this way, the user can push the fluid supply body 12 more easily. Then, the buckle protrusion 1312 is resisted by the notch of the buckle slot 1121. At this time, the buckle slot 1121 generates a reaction force F at the position of resisting the buckle protrusion 1312. The reaction force F can be decomposed into a horizontal component F1 and a vertical component F2, and the angle A1 between the horizontal component F1 and the reaction force F is smaller than the angle A2 between the vertical component F2 and the reaction force F, so that the horizontal component F1 is greater than the vertical component F2, so that the user can buckle the buckle member 131 in the buckle slot 1121 more easily. Then, as shown in Figure 10 The buckle member 131 is buckled in the buckle slot 1121. In this way, the installation of the fluid supply body 12 in the accommodating shell 11 is completed.
[0097] On the contrary, when the user wants to remove the fluid supply body 12 from the accommodating shell 11, first, the handle member 134 is rotated along the reverse direction of direction B. At this time, the second pivot end 1322 and the first pivot end 1321 of the link member 132 are driven by the handle member 134 to rotate along the reverse direction of direction C and the reverse direction of direction D respectively, and the buckle member 131 is driven by the link member 132 to rotate along the reverse direction of direction E, so as to release the buckle of the buckle member 131 and the buckle slot 1121. Then, the fluid supply body 12 is pulled out of the accommodating shell 11 along the reverse direction of direction A. In this way, the removal of the fluid supply body 12 from the accommodating shell 11 is completed.
[0098] According to the fluid supply module of the above embodiments, since the fluid supply module is provided with the locking assembly, the buckle member of the locking assembly includes the buckle protrusion and the abutting protrusion, and the guide column of the accommodating shell has the buckle slot, when the fluid supply body is installed in the accommodating shell or removed from the accommodating shell, it is not necessary to open the accommodating shell and perform complicated assembly and disassembly steps through additional assembly elements and disassembly elements, but the two first fluid connectors and the two second fluid connectors can be directly communicated or not communicated, and the first electric connector and the second electric connector can be directly connected or not connected at one time through the buckling or unbuckling of the buckle member and the guide column, so as to complete the assembly or disassembly of the fluid supply body. Further, the abutting protrusion helps the rotation of the buckle member, so that the buckle protrusion is buckled in the buckle slot with less labor. In this way, the convenience of the assembly and disassembly of the fluid supply module can be improved.
[0099] Although the present application is disclosed with the above-mentioned embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present application, and any person skilled in the art can make some changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope defined by the claims attached to the present application.
