Therefore, a feature defined as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.
[0025] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0026] To address the technical problems of low space utilization and unreasonable layout of CT scanner cabinets in the prior art, this application proposes a computer and power distribution cabinet for a CT scanner.
[0027] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3In one possible implementation, the computer and power distribution cabinet for a CT scanner includes: a computer drawer area located in the upper region of the cabinet 1, with multiple drawers 2, which are retractably connected to two computer area support columns 3 arranged along the height direction of the cabinet 1; an emergency power supply and switch support plate 4 located in the middle region of the cabinet 1, horizontally mounted on two side columns 5 of the cabinet 1; and a power distribution unit mounting area located in the lower region of the cabinet 1, including a front panel 6 mounted on the front side of the cabinet 1 and a rear panel 7 mounted on the rear side of the cabinet 1, and also including four power area support columns 8 arranged along the height direction of the cabinet 1, the power area support columns 8 being respectively connected to the front panel 6. A gap is provided between the power distribution unit and the rear panel 7. The gap between the power distribution unit support column 8 and the front panel 6 accommodates the input and output terminals of the power distribution unit. The front panel 6 is provided with input and output terminal holes 9 that are compatible with the input and output terminals of the power distribution unit. The gap between the power distribution unit support column 8 and the rear panel 7 accommodates the protection and control terminals of the power distribution unit. The rear panel 7 is provided with protection and control terminal holes 10 that are compatible with the protection and control terminals of the power distribution unit. A support beam 11 is provided at the bottom of the power distribution unit mounting area cabinet 1, and the power distribution unit is mounted on the support beam 11. A door panel 12 is provided on the front side of the cabinet 1. A top cover 13 is provided above the upper area of the cabinet 1.
[0028] In the above design, cabinet 1 utilizes the upper and lower spaces to partition and house the computer, emergency power supply, switch, and power distribution unit, clearly defining their functions. The computer drawer area features multiple drawers supported by support columns, facilitating the placement and removal of computer modules. The middle area houses support plates for the emergency power supply and switch, ensuring their installation stability. The lower area, through the design of the front and rear panels, accommodates and protects the input / output terminals, protection, and control terminals of the power distribution unit, while supporting beams provide a robust mounting foundation for the power distribution unit.
[0029] The cabinet features a compact structure, rational functional layout, and ease of maintenance and management. The drawer-style design facilitates quick removal and replacement of computer modules, while the perforated front and rear panels provide convenient access to the power supply port. The top panel enhances overall strength and protects the internal components.
[0030] In one possible implementation, a sound-silencing structure 14 is provided on the inner side of the top cover 13.
[0031] By incorporating a sound-absorbing structure on the inner side of the top cover, the cabinet effectively reduces the transmission of external noise and the propagation of noise generated during the operation of internal equipment. This sound-absorbing structure can include sound-absorbing cotton, noise-reducing coatings, or composite sound-insulating materials. By absorbing and attenuating sound waves, it significantly improves the cabinet's suitability for imaging scanning environments, ensuring quieter operation.
[0032] The above solutions can effectively reduce operating noise, providing a quieter working environment for hospitals and other imaging scanning scenarios, and improving patient comfort.
[0033] In other embodiments, the sound-silencing structure 14 can be made of different material combinations, such as polyurethane foam and sound insulation panels, or specialized noise reduction technologies can be selected according to different noise sources. Furthermore, the location of the sound-silencing structure can be extended to the side panels or bottom panel of the cabinet to further enhance the noise reduction effect.
[0034] In one possible implementation, a sound-silencing structure 14 is provided on the inner side of the door panel 12.
[0035] Adding a sound-silencing structure to the inside of the door panel further reduces the propagation of noise generated during cabinet operation. Since the door panel is usually the area in the cabinet where sound waves are most easily transmitted, setting up a sound-silencing structure can significantly improve the overall noise reduction performance of the cabinet.
[0036] In one possible implementation, an emergency power supply and switch support column 17 is provided on the emergency power supply and switch support plate 4, and the emergency power supply and switch support plate 4 and the emergency power supply and switch support column 17 define the position of the emergency power supply and switch.
[0037] The emergency power supply and switch are mounted on a stable structure via support plates and columns. This arrangement prevents the power supply equipment and switch from shifting during transportation or operation, thus ensuring the normal operation and safety of the equipment.
[0038] This design improves the stability of the equipment inside the cabinet, preventing damage caused by equipment relocation, while also facilitating the precise positioning and maintenance of power supply equipment and switches.
[0039] In one possible implementation, conductive foam 15 is provided on the inner side of the door panel 12 along the height direction of the cabinet 1.
[0040] Conductive foam can form a continuous conductive path when the door panel and cabinet frame come into contact, effectively shielding electromagnetic interference (EMI). This design is particularly suitable for high-precision imaging scanning equipment such as CT scanners, ensuring the stability of their electronic components.
[0041] By incorporating conductive foam, the cabinet can significantly reduce the impact of external electromagnetic interference on internal equipment, while also preventing electromagnetic wave leakage from internal equipment from interfering with other devices.
[0042] See Figure 1 and Figure 5 In one possible implementation, drawer 2 is provided with three layers.
[0043] The three-drawer design provides more storage space for computer modules within a limited area, while keeping the drawers easy to pull out without affecting heat dissipation and wiring.
[0044] In one possible implementation, casters 16 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the cabinet 1.
[0045] The bottom casters facilitate movement of the cabinet on flat surfaces, providing stable support and flexible mobility through their four corner distribution, adapting to the needs of different position adjustments.
[0046] The following is a detailed description of a computer and power distribution cabinet for a CT scanner according to an embodiment of this utility model:

[0053] 3. The upper part has a computer, and the inner side of the sheet metal has a sound-silencing structure;
[0054] 4. The middle partition divides the upper and lower parts into independently operating areas;
[0055] 5. Both parts have conductive foam, which can effectively prevent electromagnetic interference generated by the device.
