Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of equipment cabinets, and in particular to a cabinet blind plate and a modular cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] Server racks in data centers house multiple computer modules. During installation, one designated placement area for these modules is left open as a cable management port, allowing cables to pass through and connect to other modules within the rack. Since the rack has cold and hot aisles at the front and back for cooling, if these cable management ports are not blocked, some cool air from the cold aisles will flow into the hot aisles through these ports. This not only wastes cool air but also reduces the rack's cooling efficiency. To prevent air from passing through these ports, rack blind flanges are typically installed. Brushes on the blind flanges seal the cable management ports, allowing cables to pass through. This satisfies the need for cables to enter and exit the rack while simultaneously preventing air cross-flow between the cold and hot aisles using the brushes. In practical applications, the height of a cable entry port in a server rack is fixed. During use, the number of cables entering and exiting the server rack varies. When there are many cables, multiple cable entry ports need to be reserved and multiple server rack blind plates need to be installed for the cables to pass through. However, if multiple cable entry ports are reserved and server rack blind plates are installed at the beginning of the server rack installation, the actual number of cables required may be small, and the working space of the server rack used to reserve cable entry ports may be wasted. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a cabinet blind plate that can flexibly adjust the number of cable entry ports left in the cabinet according to the actual number of cables to be passed through, so as to achieve efficient and flexible cable management.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a cabinet blind plate, including a blind plate body with through holes and brushes covering the through holes. The brushes are characterized in that multiple brushes of different lengths are provided, and a brush of a specific length is detachably installed on the plate body to cover the through holes to varying degrees.
[0005] Furthermore, a magnet is installed on the inner wall of the through hole, and a corresponding magnetic strip is provided on the brush, which is attracted to the magnet.
[0006] Furthermore, the plate has blind plate screw holes, and screws are screwed into the blind plate screw holes to install and fix the plate.
[0007] This utility model also provides a modular cabinet, including a cabinet body and cable trays for cable passage. The cabinet body has multiple placement positions for placing computer modules, some of which serve as cable trays. A cabinet blind plate is installed on the cable tray. The cabinet blind plate is specifically as described above.
[0008] Furthermore, the cabinet has screw holes at the cable entry points, and screws on the blind flange are screwed into the blind flange screw holes and the cabinet screw holes to install and fix the plate.
[0009] The cabinet blind plate provided by this utility model has multiple brushes that can be detachably installed on the plate body. The number of empty computer modules can be changed according to the actual number of cables passing through the cabinet to form multiple adjacent cable ports. Different lengths of brushes can be replaced to cover multiple cable ports to meet the cable requirements of the cabinet without changing the number of cabinet blind plates. In addition, when the brushes wear out, only new brushes need to be replaced instead of replacing the entire blind plate, which reduces maintenance costs and time costs and facilitates daily maintenance and cleaning.

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0018] Cabinet blind plate 1 Figure 1 As shown, a rectangular through hole 18 is opened at the lower part of the plate 17. A magnet 13 is installed on the upper side of the inner wall of the through hole 18, and multiple brushes 11 are installed in the through hole 18. The brush 11 has a brush magnetic strip 14 at the beginning, and the brush magnetic strip 14 is attracted to the magnet 13. The brush 11 is thus installed on the through hole 18 and as shown. Figure 2The through hole 18 is shown to be covered.
[0019] Rack 2, etc. Figure 4 or Figure 6 As shown, the cabinet 22 houses multiple computer modules 23. During cabinet 2 installation, cable entry ports 25 are provided for cables to pass through and connect to the computer modules 23 within the cabinet 22. If the cabinet 2 is as follows... Figure 4 As shown, a placement space for placing the computer module 23 is left as a cable routing port 25. The brush 11 on the cabinet blind plate 1 is selected as follows: Figure 2 The short-bristled brush 111 shown covers the through-hole 18. The bristles 15 of the short-bristled brush 111 are just long enough to cover a cable entry port 25 the size of a computer module 23. Cables pass through the brush 111 and through the cable entry port 25. Later, to accommodate more cables, the cabinet 2 can be modified as follows... Figure 6 As shown, two adjacent placement positions for computer modules 23 are reserved as two adjacent cable routing ports 25. Therefore, the short brush 111 on the cabinet blind plate 1 needs to be replaced with... Figure 3 The long-bristled brush 112 covers the through hole 18, such as Figure 7 As shown, the bristles 15 of the long-bristled brush 112 are long enough to cover two adjacent thread openings 25.
[0020] In order to install cabinet blind plate 1 as follows Figure 4 or Figure 6 On the cable tray 25 of the cabinet 2 shown, the cabinet body 22 has two cabinet screw holes 24, one above the other, on the left side of the cable tray 25. Correspondingly, the cabinet blind plate 1 has two blind plate screw holes 12. During installation, the blind plate screw holes 12 of the cabinet blind plate 1 are aligned with the cabinet screw holes 24 of the cabinet body 22. Screws 16 are screwed into the blind plate screw holes 12 and the cabinet screw holes 24 to install and fix the cabinet blind plate 1 onto the cabinet 2. After installation, as shown... Figure 5 or Figure 7 As shown.
[0021] When the brush 11 on the cabinet blind plate 1 wears out, you only need to remove the old brush and replace it with a new brush 11. There is no need to replace the entire cabinet blind plate 1.
[0022] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the scope of patent protection. Any non-substantial changes or substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention will still fall within the scope of patent protection.
