Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of server fans, and more specifically, to a quick-release server fan. Background Technology

[0002] A server, also known as a servo server, is a device that provides computing services. It is a type of computer that provides computing or application services to other client machines (such as PCs, smartphones, ATMs, etc.) on a network. Because servers need to respond to and process service requests, they must have the ability to undertake and guarantee services. Compared to general computer architectures, servers have higher requirements in terms of processing power, stability, reliability, security, scalability, and manageability.

[0003] Servers require cooling fans for heat dissipation. Since these fans need to work continuously for extended periods, they are very prone to damage. However, current cooling fans are installed using screws, making disassembly and replacement difficult and inconvenient.

[0004] Therefore, we made improvements and proposed a quick-release server fan. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the issue that cooling fans are prone to damage because they need to work continuously for long periods of time. However, existing cooling fans are installed with screws, which makes disassembly and replacement difficult and inconvenient.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] Quick-release server fans were introduced to address the aforementioned issues.

[0008] The application is as follows:

[0009] The system includes a fan mounted on a server. A partition is installed inside the server, and a connector is screwed onto the partition. The fan is inserted into the connector. A first mounting rod is installed inside the connector. Connecting rods are fixedly mounted at both ends of the first mounting rod. A second mounting rod is fixedly mounted on the connecting rod. Insert blocks are fixedly mounted at the bottom of both the first and second mounting rods. A connecting column is rotatably connected to the top of the first mounting rod, and a drive mechanism is provided on the connecting column.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the driving mechanism includes a threaded rod fixedly installed on the connecting column, and a rotating rod fixedly installed on the top of the threaded rod.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, an auxiliary block is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting seat, the auxiliary block is threadedly connected to the threaded rod, and connecting lugs are fixedly installed on both sides of the connecting seat.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the connector has a connecting groove on its front side.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this application, connecting blocks are fixedly installed at the top and bottom of the fan, and the connecting blocks cooperate with the connecting groove.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this application, each of the connecting blocks is provided with a slot, and the slot cooperates with the plug block.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a slide bar is fixedly installed on the side wall of the connecting rod, and the connecting rod is slidably connected to the connecting seat through the slide bar.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] In the scheme of this application:

[0018] 1. The rotating rod drives the threaded rod to rotate, which rotates along the auxiliary block and moves upward, causing the bottom connecting column to move upward. The connecting column then drives the first mounting rod to move upward, which in turn drives the connecting rod to move upward. The connecting rod drives the slide bar to slide along the connecting seat, and simultaneously, the connecting rod drives the second mounting rod to move upward. As the first and second mounting rods move upward, they also drive the insert block, causing it to disengage from the slot on the connecting block. Then, the fan can be removed, allowing the connecting block to disengage from the connecting slot, thus removing the fan. This design eliminates the need to remove screws during the initial installation, making subsequent fan replacements quick and easy. It solves the problem of traditional screw-based installation being neither fast nor convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0033] like Figure 1-7 As shown, this embodiment proposes a quick-release server fan, including a fan 3 mounted on a server 1. A partition 11 is provided inside the server 1, and a connecting seat 2 is installed on the partition 11 by screws. The fan 3 is inserted into the connecting seat 2. A first mounting rod 21 is provided inside the connecting seat 2. Connecting rods 22 are fixedly installed at the bottom of both ends of the first mounting rod 21. The first mounting rod 21 drives the connecting rods 22 to move upward. A second mounting rod 23 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 22. The connecting rod 22 drives the second mounting rod 23 to move upward. Insert blocks 24 are fixedly installed at the bottom of both the first mounting rod 21 and the second mounting rod 23. When the first mounting rod 21 and the second mounting rod 23 move upward, they drive the insert blocks 24, causing the insert blocks 24 to disengage from the slots 32 on the connecting blocks 31. A connecting post 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the first mounting rod 21, and a driving mechanism is provided on the connecting post 4.

[0034] To facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the fan 3, the drive mechanism includes a threaded rod 41 fixedly mounted on the connecting column 4, and a rotating rod 42 fixedly mounted on the top of the threaded rod 41. Rotating the rotating rod 42 causes the threaded rod 41 to rotate. An auxiliary block 26 is fixedly mounted on the top of the connecting seat 2. The auxiliary block 26 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 41, and the threaded rod 41 rotates along the auxiliary block 26 and moves upward.

[0035] Connecting lugs 27 are fixedly installed on both sides of the connecting seat 2.

[0036] A connecting groove 28 is provided on the front of the connector 2.

[0037] Connecting blocks 31 are fixedly installed at the top and bottom of the fan 3. The connecting blocks 31 cooperate with the connecting groove 28. When the fan 3 is removed, the connecting blocks 31 are disengaged from the connecting groove 28.

[0038] Each connecting block 31 has a slot 32, which cooperates with the insert block 24. When the fan 3 is disassembled, the insert block 24 is disengaged from the slot 32 on the connecting block 31.

[0039] A slide bar 25 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the connecting rod 22. The connecting rod 22 is slidably connected to the connecting seat 2 through the slide bar 25. The connecting rod 22 drives the slide bar 25 to slide along the inside of the connecting seat 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, server 1 is manufactured by Shenzhen Haotianchen Technology Co., Ltd., model number D2000; its structure, principle and usage are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0041] Specifically, when fan 3 of this quick-release server fan needs to be replaced due to damage: rotate the rotating rod 42, which drives the threaded rod 41 to rotate. The threaded rod 41 rotates along the auxiliary block 26 and moves upward, causing the bottom connecting post 4 to move upward. The connecting post 4 drives the first mounting rod 21 to move upward, and the first mounting rod 21 drives the connecting rod 22 to move upward. The connecting rod 22 drives the slide bar 25 to slide along the connecting seat 2. At the same time, the connecting rod 22 drives the second mounting rod 23 to move upward. As the first mounting rod 21 and the second mounting rod 23 move upward, they drive the insertion block 24, causing the insertion block 24 to disengage from the slot 32 on the connecting block 31. Then, remove the fan 3, causing the connecting block 31 to disengage from the connecting groove 28, and the fan 3 can be removed. In this way, only screws are needed during the first installation. When the fan 3 is damaged and needs to be replaced in the future, it is not necessary to remove the screws for replacement. It is convenient and quick to install and disassemble, and easy to use.

[0042] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0043] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
