Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of server technology, and in particular to a shockproof device for liquid cooling pipelines of an AI server. Background Technology

[0002] As the hardware carrier of AI technology, AI servers bear the heavy responsibility of processing massive amounts of data and performing complex algorithm calculations. Their performance directly determines the efficiency and effectiveness of AI applications. In order to effectively cool down AI servers, liquid cooling pipes are often used to dissipate heat from the internal chips of the server. The existing liquid cooling equipment for AI servers can basically meet the daily use needs, but there are still some shortcomings that need to be improved.

[0003] The rotating components inside an AI server, such as cooling fans and hard drives, generate continuous vibrations during operation. These vibrations are transmitted to the liquid cooling pipes through the server's rack and structure. As the coolant flows at high speed through the pipes, it impacts the inner walls of the pipes, causing vibrations. Under such vibration for a long time, the liquid cooling pipes are prone to wear, loosening, or even rupture. Once the pipes are worn, the coolant may leak. Coolant leakage can lead to the failure of the cooling system, causing the server temperature to run out of control and affecting the normal operation of the AI ​​server. To address these issues, we propose a vibration damping device for the liquid cooling pipes of AI servers. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shockproof device for the liquid cooling pipeline of an AI server to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a liquid cooling pipeline anti-vibration device for an AI server, comprising a server housing and multiple sets of computing modules installed inside the server housing. An integrated box is installed at the front end inside the server housing. The integrated box is connected to the outside of the computing modules through multiple sets of liquid cooling pipelines. Multiple sets of heat exchange fans are installed at the top of the integrated box. A rotating seat is installed at the rear end of the server housing.

A positioning hole is provided on the positioning block. The end of the bolt can enter the positioning hole. Anti-vibration components are provided at the bottom ends of the multiple sets of liquid cooling pipelines.

[0006] As an improved technical solution, the shockproof component includes a casing installed inside the server housing, multiple sets of sleeves installed inside the casing, a connecting rod installed inside each sleeve, a collar connected to the top of each connecting rod via a damper, the collars all fitting around the liquid cooling pipes, and a return spring provided at the bottom of each connecting rod.

[0007] As an improved technical solution, an iron sheet is installed inside the ventilation slot, and a magnetic sheet is installed on the edge of the filter screen.

[0008] As an improved technical solution, the positioning hole is a through-hole threaded hole, and the end of the bolt can be screwed into the positioning hole on the positioning block.

[0009] As an improved technical solution, the inner wall of the collar is fitted with a rubber gasket, and the collar is detachably connected to the top of the connecting rod by threads.

[0010] As an improved technical solution, the inner wall of the sleeve is provided with a guide groove, and the outer wall of the connecting rod is provided with a guide protrusion that matches the sleeve.

[0011] As an improved technical solution, the outer wall of the damper is fully fitted with the inner wall of the housing.

[0013] I. This utility model features an openable cover plate installed on the outside of the server housing, allowing the cover plate to rotate within a rotating base, facilitating quick opening of the cover plate. A positioning seat located at the front end of the server housing allows the cover plate to drive a positioning block into the positioning seat.

[0014] II. This utility model, by installing multiple sets of sleeves and dampers inside the casing, allows vibration to be transmitted to the collar through the liquid cooling pipeline, and allows the dampers to absorb the vertical impact force. It also allows the connecting rod to move linearly along the inside of the sleeve, and allows the return spring at the bottom of the connecting rod to provide a reverse elastic force to counteract the horizontal vibration, thereby achieving multi-directional vibration reduction and comprehensively reducing the vibration amplitude of the pipeline.

[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] This utility model provides a technical solution: such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown in this embodiment, a liquid cooling pipeline anti-vibration device for an AI server includes a server housing 1 and multiple sets of computing modules 2 installed inside the server housing 1. An integrated box 4 is installed at the front end inside the server housing 1. The integrated box 4 is connected to the outside of the computing modules 2 through multiple sets of liquid cooling pipelines 3. Multiple sets of heat exchange fans 5 are installed at the top of the integrated box 4. A rotating seat 9 is installed at the rear end of the server housing 1. A rotating rod 10 is rotatably connected inside the rotating seat 9. A cover plate 6 is connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 10 through a connecting bracket 11. A ventilation groove 7 is opened on the cover plate 6. A filter screen 8 is installed inside the ventilation groove 7. A positioning seat 12 is installed in the middle of the front end of the server housing 1. A positioning block 13 is installed at the end of the cover plate 6 away from the connecting bracket 11. A bolt 14 is threadedly connected to the side end of the positioning seat 12. A positioning hole 15 is opened on the positioning block 13. The end of the bolt 14 can enter the positioning hole 15. An anti-vibration component is provided at the bottom end of the multiple sets of liquid cooling pipelines 3.

[0024] By installing an openable cover plate 6 on the outside of the server housing 1, the cover plate 6 can drive the rotating rod 10 to rotate within the rotating seat 9, thus facilitating quick opening of the cover plate 6. Then, through the positioning seat 12 set at the front end of the server housing 1, when the cover plate 6 drives the positioning block 13 into the positioning seat 12, the end of the bolt 14 can be quickly inserted into the positioning hole 15 on the positioning block 13 by rotating the bolt 14, thereby forming a rigid connection between the cover plate 6 and the server housing 1, ensuring the stability of the cover plate 6 connection. Furthermore, by providing ventilation slots 7 on the cover plate 6, the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange fan 5 is ensured, and a removable filter screen 8 is installed in the ventilation slots 7, allowing the filter screen 8 to intercept airborne fluff and reduce the amount of fluff entering the server housing 1.

[0025] In other embodiments, the shock-absorbing component includes a housing 16 installed inside the server housing 1, multiple sets of sleeves 17 installed inside the housing 16, a connecting rod 18 installed inside each sleeve 17, a collar 19 connected to the top of the connecting rod 18 through a damper 21, the collar 19 being fitted around the outside of the liquid cooling pipe 3, and a return spring 20 provided at the bottom of the connecting rod 18.

[0026] By installing multiple sets of sleeves 17 and dampers 21 inside the housing 16, vibration is transmitted to the collar 19 through the liquid cooling pipeline 3, and the damper 21 absorbs the vertical impact force. The connecting rod 18 moves linearly along the inside of the sleeve 17, and the return spring 20 at the bottom of the connecting rod 18 provides a reverse elastic force to counteract the horizontal vibration, thereby achieving multi-directional vibration reduction and comprehensively reducing the vibration amplitude of the pipeline. In addition, the housing 16 integrates multiple sets of anti-vibration units, which facilitates installation and maintenance according to the number of liquid cooling pipelines.

[0027] In other embodiments, an iron sheet is installed inside the ventilation slot 7, and a magnetic sheet is installed on the edge of the filter screen 8;

[0029] In other embodiments, the positioning hole 15 is a through threaded hole, and the end of the bolt 14 can be screwed into the positioning hole 15 on the positioning block 13.

[0030] This design allows the bolt 14 to be screwed into the positioning hole 15 to form a mechanical lock, enhancing the connection strength between the cover plate 6 and the server housing 1 and preventing the cover plate 6 from opening on its own due to vibration.

[0031] In other embodiments, the inner wall of the collar 19 is fitted with a rubber gasket, and the collar 19 is detachably connected to the top of the connecting rod 18 by threads.

[0032] The collar 19 increases the friction with the liquid cooling line 3 through the rubber gasket, while avoiding wear caused by direct metal contact, and also makes it easy to replace collar 19 of different specifications according to the line size.

[0033] In other embodiments, the inner wall of the sleeve 17 is provided with a guide groove, and the outer wall of the connecting rod 18 is provided with a guide protrusion that matches the sleeve 17;

[0034] This design allows the connecting rod 18 to move vertically and linearly inside the sleeve 17, avoiding frictional loss caused by skewing, thereby improving the coordination efficiency of the damper 21 and the return spring 20.

[0035] In other embodiments, the outer wall of the damper 21 is fully fitted with the inner wall of the housing 16;

[0036] With this design, when the collar 19 transmits vibration to the damper 21, the damper 21 can move vertically up and down along the inner wall of the sleeve 16, and the damper 21 can convert the vibration into frictional force and release the heat energy generated by friction.

[0037] The electrical components mentioned in this article are all electrically connected to an external main controller and industrial power supply, and the main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that provides control.
