[0002] With the rapid development of information technology, the number of data centers and computer rooms is constantly increasing, and the heat dissipation problem of computer rooms is becoming increasingly prominent.

[0003] For example, Chinese utility model patent CN218473697U discloses "an energy-saving data center cooling water device". This device is equipped with a water cooling mechanism. When the alarm and temperature sensor are connected by telecommunications, the alarm can sound an alarm. At this time, the water pump is started. The water pump drives the first water pipe to circulate the cold water in the cooler into the inlet pipe. The inlet pipe is divided into two second water pipes through the upper branch pipe. The two second water pipes are connected to the outlet pipe through the lower branch pipe and return to the cooler for cooling again.

[0004] However, during the water cooling process, water vapor in the air will adhere to and condense on the cold surface. When water droplets condense on the wall, these droplets will form a heat insulation layer, which will hinder the heat exchange between the wall and the external environment, thus reducing its heat dissipation and cooling effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a computer room cooling device that solves the problem that when water droplets condense on the heat-absorbing surface, they form a heat insulation layer, which reduces the heat dissipation and cooling effect.

This effectively removes moisture adhering to the surface of the cooling plate, preventing moisture from accumulating and forming an insulation layer. This ensures the cooling plate can continuously absorb heat from the computer room in good condition, maintaining a good cooling effect.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the cooling plate is provided with a mounting bracket, and the mounting bracket is provided with a stroke groove.

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a computer room cooling device, which includes a cooling plate 1 installed on the inner wall of the computer room and a cooling device installed outside the computer room. A circulating water pipe 100 is installed inside the cooling plate 1 and connected to the cooling device. A reciprocating drive unit includes a double helix column 4 rotatably installed on the top of the cooling plate 1 and a drive source 401 for driving the double helix column 4 to rotate. A cleaning unit includes a drive block 205 installed on the double helix column 4, a reciprocating arm 2 installed on the drive block 205 and a scraper arm 6 elastically connected to the reciprocating arm 2. The scraper arm 6 abuts against the cooling plate 1 and is used to clean the cooling plate 1.

[0022] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: By setting a cleaning unit on the cooling plate 1, the cleaning unit can clean the surface of the cooling plate 1 during operation. The scraper arm 6 abuts against the cooling plate 1. As the drive source 401 drives the double helix column 4 to rotate, the drive block 205 moves on the double helix column 4, driving the reciprocating arm 2 and the scraper arm 6 to reciprocate. This can promptly scrape off the moisture adhering to the surface of the cooling plate 1, preventing moisture from accumulating on the surface of the cooling plate 1 and forming a heat insulation layer. This ensures that the cooling plate 1 can continuously absorb heat from the computer room in a good condition and maintain a good cooling effect.

[0023] The cooling equipment in the above scheme is a necessary component of a common water-cooled cooling device. Water-cooled cooling technology is common and will not be described in detail in this embodiment. Only the working principle of this embodiment is simply described. First, the cooling equipment cools the coolant and then sends it to the cooling plate 1 through the circulating water pipe 100. The cooling plate 1 absorbs heat from the air, thereby reducing the temperature in the computer room. In a computer room, one or more cooling plates 1 can be installed according to actual needs. The circulating water pipes 100 in the multiple cooling plates 1 can be connected in series or in parallel to the cooling equipment as needed to realize the circulation of coolant.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, a mounting bracket 5 is provided on the top of the cooling plate 1, and a stroke groove 501 is provided on the mounting bracket 5. The double helix column 4 is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 5, and the double helix column 4 is located directly above the stroke groove 501. A mounting platform 502 is provided at one end of the mounting bracket 5, and the drive source 401 is located on the mounting platform 502.

[0025] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: The mounting bracket 5 is used to install the double helix column 4 and the drive source 401. The double helix column 4 is located on the upper side of the stroke groove 501, so that when the double helix column 4 rotates, it can accurately convert the rotational motion into the linear reciprocating motion of the drive block 205 in the stroke groove 501 through the cooperation of the thread with the drive block 205.

[0026] In the above embodiments, the drive source 401 is an electric motor. In other embodiments, a suitable drive component can be selected according to the actual situation.

[0027] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the reciprocating arm 2 includes a limiting seat 204 fixedly connected to the drive block 205, a cylindrical arm 203 fixedly connected to the limiting seat 204, and a mounting arm 202 fixedly connected to the cylindrical arm 203, wherein the limiting seat 204 is located in the stroke groove 501.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the limiting seat 204 forms planes on both sides and abuts against the side walls of the stroke groove 501.

[0029] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: The limiting seat 204 plays a key guiding and stabilizing role. It is located in the stroke groove 501, abutting against the side walls of the stroke groove 501 on both sides, and fixedly connected to the drive block 205. On the one hand, it constrains the movement of the drive block 205 within the trajectory defined by the stroke groove 501, ensuring that the entire cleaning unit can accurately clean the cooling plate 1 along the predetermined route and avoid movement deviation; on the other hand, it enhances the connection stability between the reciprocating arm 2 and the mounting frame 5, making the entire structure more reliable during operation. The cylindrical arm 203, as the intermediate component connecting the limiting seat 204 and the mounting arm 202, mainly plays the role of force transmission and structural extension. The mounting arm 202 is the part that directly connects to the scraper arm 6, providing the mounting base for the scraper arm 6.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the scraper arm 6 is provided with at least two columns 602, and the mounting arm 202 is provided with a number of through holes 201 corresponding to the number of columns 602. Each column 602 is located in the corresponding through hole 201. Each column 602 is fitted with a compression spring 603, and each compression spring 603 is located between the scraper arm 6 and the mounting arm 202.

[0031] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: The scraper arm 6 is connected to the mounting arm 202 through the column 602 with the compression spring 603 sleeved on it. The elasticity of the compression spring 603 enables the scraper arm 6 to adapt to the surface condition of the cooling plate 1, ensuring that the scraper arm 6 can contact the cooling plate 1 under any circumstances and effectively clean the water, thus ensuring the cleaning effect. At the same time, the compression spring 603 can play a buffering role to avoid damage to the cooling plate 1.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, a rubber pad 601 is provided on the contact surface between the scraper arm 6 and the cooling plate 1.

[0033] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: The rubber pad 601 has good flexibility and elasticity, which can closely fit the surface of the cooling plate 1 to form a good sealing effect, ensuring that the scraper arm 6 can more effectively scrape off the moisture on the surface of the cooling plate 1 during the cleaning process and reduce moisture residue.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, a water tank 3 is installed at the bottom of the cooling plate 1.

[0035] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: With the water tank 3 set up, the condensate water cleaned by the scraper arm 6 can be collected to prevent the condensate water from flowing to the ground and causing environmental interference. At the same time, the condensate water can be collected to realize the secondary use of water resources and achieve the purpose of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, multiple sets of mounting bases 101 are evenly distributed around the cooling plate.

[0037] The detailed working process of this embodiment is as follows: With the installation base 101, it is convenient to install the cooling plate 1 onto the wall of the computer room.

[0038] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: First, the cooling equipment is installed in a suitable location outside the computer room, and then the cooling plate 1 is installed in a suitable location inside the computer room. One or more plates can be installed according to actual needs. After installation, the computer room can be cooled. During the cooling process, the drive source 401 is powered on. As the drive source 401 drives the double helix column 4 to rotate, the drive block 205 moves on the double helix column 4, driving the reciprocating arm 2 and the scraper arm 6 to reciprocate, which can remove the moisture attached to the surface of the cooling plate 1 in time.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
