Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rack cabinet technology, and in particular to an air-conditioned network equipment rack cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] An air-conditioned network equipment rack cabinet is a type of cabinet specifically designed for storing and cooling network equipment. It can accommodate various network devices, providing centralized storage and easy access to each device. Using a network equipment rack cabinet improves the power efficiency of network equipment, accelerates cooling, prevents overheating and damage, and provides a safer working environment for the network equipment.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent CN221829282U discloses an air-conditioned network equipment rack cabinet, comprising an air-conditioned network equipment rack cabinet body. The top of the cabinet body has an installation chamber, and support frames are symmetrically installed on both sides of the inner wall of the installation chamber. Each support frame has equidistant fixing holes at one end, and a positioning slot is formed between two adjacent fixing holes at another end. Several partition plates are installed between the four support frames, and limit blocks are symmetrically welded to both sides of the bottom of each partition plate. Through the combined use of the positioning slots, fixing holes, limit blocks, fixing holes, and fixing pins, the partition plates can be fixed to the four support frames. By adjusting the spacing between adjacent partition plates, multiple network devices can be rationally placed inside the air-conditioned network equipment rack cabinet, facilitating its use.

[0004] This patent only allows adjustment of the distance between partitions, but it cannot open the back of the rack cabinet to install the wiring at the top rear. When wiring needs to be connected to the equipment on the upper level of the rack cabinet, it is easy for staff to not be able to reach the back of the equipment from the front of the rack cabinet, making wiring installation difficult. Furthermore, the wiring between various devices is mixed and inconvenient to find. At the same time, it cannot provide better ventilation for the equipment on the upper level of the rack cabinet, which can easily lead to insufficient ventilation inside the upper level of the rack cabinet. Utility Model Content

[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 The present invention will be further described below.

[0026] To address the problems existing in the background technology, this application proposes the following technical solution: an air-conditioned network equipment rack cabinet.

[0027] The specific technical solution includes a backplane 1 and a branch connection assembly 2;

[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the branch connection assembly 2 is installed on the back panel 1. The branch connection assembly 2 is used to facilitate the connection of wires behind the equipment inside the rack cabinet. The branch connection assembly 2 includes a branch structure symmetrically installed on the back panel 1. The branch structure includes a junction box 201 fixedly installed on the back panel 1. The junction box 201 can protect the lines. The junction box 201 has two partitions 202 fixedly installed inside and a slide rail 203 fixedly installed on the outer side wall. The partitions 202 can facilitate the connection of various equipment. The wiring is divided and stored separately. The slide rail 203 can easily fix the cover 204. The cover 204 located on one side of the partition 202 passes between the junction box 201 and the slide rail 203. The cover 204 can seal the side wall of the junction box 201 and press the wiring. The side wall of the junction box 201, the partition 202, and the side wall of the junction box 201 between the two partitions 202 are all provided with cable outlet holes 3. The cable outlet holes 3 can facilitate the connection of the wiring in the junction box 201 to the rear interface of the device.

[0029] The junction box 2 is located behind the equipment inside the rack cabinet. By opening the cover 204, the cables connected to each device are respectively threaded into the junction box 201. The partition 202 can separate the cables connected to each device to prevent them from mixing. After the cables are threaded into the partitioned area inside the junction box 201, they are threaded out from each cable outlet 3. At this time, the end of the cable connected to the device is located at the rear of the device, which facilitates the connection between the cable and the device. By inserting the cover 204 into the slide rail 203, the slide rail 203 can fix the cover 204. The cover 204 can seal the side wall of the junction box 201 and protect the cables connected to the device.

[0030] like Figure 1-4As shown, a ventilation circulation assembly 4 is installed below the back panel 1. The ventilation circulation assembly 4 is used to simultaneously dissipate heat from the upper and lower parts inside the rack cabinet. A through hole 5 is opened in the middle of the back panel 1, which allows the air blown out of the air outlet 6 to easily contact the equipment inside the rack cabinet. The ventilation circulation assembly 4 includes an air inlet pipe 401 located on one side of the back panel 1 and an air outlet plate 402 fixedly installed on one side of the back panel 1 and corresponding to the through hole 5. The air inlet pipe 401 allows air from outside the cabinet 7 to easily enter the air outlet pipe 404, and the air outlet plate 402 allows air to easily reach the equipment inside the rack cabinet. Air is supplied inside the cabinet 7. An air inlet duct 401 is fixedly installed with an air exchange fan 403 and an air outlet duct 404 fixedly connected to the bottom of the air outlet plate 402. The air exchange fan 403 can drive the air flow inside the air inlet duct 401, and the air outlet duct 404 can supply air to the air outlet plate 402. The side wall of the air outlet plate 402 is provided with an air outlet hole 6 that communicates with the through hole 5. The air outlet hole 6 can facilitate the air blowing out from inside the air outlet plate 402. The number of air outlet holes 6 is the same as that of the shelf 11 and they are located above each shelf 11.

[0031] By activating the ventilation fan 403, the air inside the air inlet duct 401 is circulated. The airflow inside the air inlet duct 401 draws air from outside the cabinet 7 into the air inlet duct 401. The air inside the air inlet duct 401 then enters the air outlet duct 404. The air inside the air outlet duct 404 enters the air outlet plate 402. The air inside the air outlet plate 402 is ejected from each air outlet hole 6. The air enters the cabinet 7 through the through hole 5. The air blown out from each air outlet hole 6 directly blows onto the surface of the equipment placed on each shelf 11, which can provide sufficient heat dissipation for the equipment in different spaces inside the rack cabinet.

[0032] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a cabinet 7 is fixedly installed on the back panel 1 and fitted outside the air inlet pipe 401. The cabinet 7 can store the equipment.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the side wall of the cabinet 7 is fixedly equipped with an air inlet screen 8 that is fixedly connected to the end of the air inlet pipe 401 away from the air outlet pipe 404. The air inlet screen 8 can filter the air entering the air inlet pipe 401.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, an air outlet 9 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the cabinet 7 corresponding to the air inlet 8, which facilitates the exhaust of hot air from inside the cabinet 7.

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, a card plate 10 is fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the cabinet 7. The card plate 10 can support the shelf 11. The shelf 11 is inserted through the card plate 10 and can support the equipment.

[0036] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, the scope of the present invention will be defined by the appended claims and their equivalents for those skilled in the art.
