[0033] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] See Figures 1-3 This embodiment discloses an IT cabinet, including a cabinet body 115 and a partition 101 slidably installed in the cabinet body 115. A folding assembly 102 is installed in the cabinet body 115, and the partition 101 and the cabinet body 115 are connected through the folding assembly 102.

[0035] The folding assembly 102 includes a first wire bridge 103 and a second wire bridge 104, the first wire bridge 103 and the second wire bridge 104 are hinged together; the end of the first wire bridge 103 away from the second wire bridge 104 is hinged to the cabinet 115.

[0036] Both the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104 are provided with cable grooves 105 for limiting the cable position.

[0037] In this embodiment, the partition 101 is used to house the server body and other related equipment, on which the cables are connected. The equipment is slidably installed within the cabinet 115 via the partition 101, allowing for convenient and quick installation or removal of the server body or other equipment. Operators can easily push or pull the equipment into or out of the cabinet by sliding it, without the need for complex handling or adjustment. When maintenance or inspection of a device is required, the user can easily slide it out of the cabinet for subsequent operations. During equipment installation, the cables are sequentially passed through the cable trays 105 on the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104 before being connected to the equipment. When the equipment needs to be pushed into or pulled out of the cabinet, the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104 unfold or fold as the partition 101 moves, allowing the cables installed in the cable trays 105 to move along the trajectory of the mobile device without being excessively pulled or twisted. This prevents the cables from becoming loose or shifted due to pulling during equipment movement, which could lead to unstable or interrupted signal transmission. The cable trough 105 serves to fix and guide the cable, ensuring its stable position and condition during movement. This improves the cable's stability and reliability. The cable trough 105 can be located inside or outside the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104. In this embodiment, the cable trough 105 is located outside the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104. This arrangement prevents the cable installed within the cable trough 105 from being damaged or malfunctioning due to excessive bending angles, and also facilitates cable installation and replacement by operators.

[0038] In some embodiments, the end of the second wire bridge 104 away from the first wire bridge 103 is hinged to the partition 101. By hinged the second wire bridge 104 to the partition 101, the second wire bridge 104 can be moved during the movement of the partition 101, causing the folding assembly 102 to unfold. Compared to unfolding the folding assembly 102 by means of cables connected to the device, moving the second wire bridge 104 directly through the partition 101 avoids stress on the connection between the cable and the device during the movement of the partition 101, thereby further improving the stability of the cable-device connection.

[0039] In some embodiments, a slide rail is detachably installed inside the cabinet 115, and the partition 101 is slidably installed on the slide rail. The cabinet 115 has a plurality of mesh holes, and the slide rail is detachably connected to the cabinet 115 after engaging with the mesh holes using mounting bolts. The position of the slide rail can be adjusted according to actual needs. By setting the slide rail, the partition 101 can be limited and guided, making the movement of the partition 101 more stable.

[0040] In some embodiments, both the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104 are equipped with baffles 106 for shielding the cable tray 105. There are two baffles 106, which are detachably mounted on the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104. By providing the baffles 106, the cables installed in the cable tray 105 can be protected. In this embodiment, the baffles 106 are detachably connected to the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104 by bolts.

[0041] In some embodiments, a hinge is installed on the baffle 106, and the baffle 106 is rotatably connected to the first wire bridge 103 and the second wire bridge 104 via the hinge; a fixing component for fixing the baffle 106 is installed on the first wire bridge 103 and the second wire bridge 104. In this embodiment, there are two baffles 106, which are hinged to the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104 respectively. This allows operators to easily and quickly open the baffles 106 to install cables into the cable tray 105 or replace cables in the cable tray 105, further improving the efficiency of cable installation and removal. The fixing component includes a threaded post and a stop block 117. The stop block 117 is fixedly connected to the threaded post and is threadedly connected to the first cable bridge 103 and the second cable bridge 104 through the threaded post. Rotating the threaded post allows the stop block 117 to move to contact the baffle 106, thereby fixing the baffle 106 and protecting the cables in the cable tray 105.

[0042] In some embodiments, a connecting block 107 is rotatably mounted on the cabinet 115, and a connecting component 108 is provided on the connecting block 107; a slot 109 for cooperating with the connecting component 108 is provided at the end of the first cable bridge 103 away from the second cable bridge 104. The folding component 102 is detachably mounted on the connecting block 107 via the connecting component 108, facilitating the installation and replacement of the folding component 102.

[0043] In some embodiments, the connecting block 107 is provided with a sliding groove, and the connecting assembly 108 includes a spring 110 and locking blocks 111 slidably mounted at the upper and lower ends of the sliding groove. The upper and lower ends of the spring 110 are respectively connected to the two locking blocks 111. After the two locking blocks 111 contact the first wire bridge 103, they move towards each other, and the spring 110 is compressed. When the locking blocks 111 move to the position corresponding to the slot 109, the two locking blocks 111 move towards the slot 109 under the force of the spring 110, so that the first wire bridge 103 can be rotatably connected to the cabinet 115 through the rotating block, and it is convenient to quickly install and replace the folding assembly 102.

[0044] In some embodiments, a push block 112 is connected to the locking block 111. An operator presses the push block 112 to move the locking blocks 111 towards each other, compressing the spring 110. After moving the locking blocks 111 to a position corresponding to the slot 109, the operator releases the push block 112, causing the two locking blocks 111 to move towards the slot 109 under the force of the spring 110. By setting the push block 112, wear and tear can be avoided caused by the locking blocks 111 rubbing against the first wire bridge 103 during their movement to the position corresponding to the slot 109.

[0045] In some embodiments, a limiting block 113 is installed in the cable tray 105, and a limiting groove 114 is provided on the limiting block 113. The limiting block 113 is detachably installed in the cable tray 105 by bolts, and the limiting groove 114 is used to further limit the cables installed in the cable tray 105, so that the cable layout in the cable tray 105 is more neat and orderly, which facilitates the subsequent maintenance and management of the cables.

[0046] In some embodiments, cabinet doors 116 are rotatably connected to both the front and rear sides of the cabinet body 115. The cabinet doors 116 are hinged to the cabinet body 115. After opening the cabinet door 116 on the front side of the cabinet body 115, the partition 101 can be pulled to install, repair, and replace the equipment placed on the partition 101. Opening the cabinet door 116 on the rear side of the cabinet body 115 allows operators to easily disassemble and assemble the folding assembly 102 and fix the cables connected to the equipment in the cable tray 105.
