AI Technical Summary
During the installation of existing panoramic sunroofs, it is difficult to accurately align the lateral distance of the support components, resulting in the sunroof's fixed outer frame being too close, causing it to be unable to rotate or fall off.
The sunroof support components consist of a rectangular frame and a support plate. The flip-up sunroof body can be rotatably installed via a pivot. Combined with the cross-channel connecting beam and limiting shims, the lateral distance between the sunroof support components is fixed. Alignment and positioning are achieved through pre-drilled holes and bolt connections. A drop gap is left between the flip-up inner frame and the fixed outer frame.
This design achieves a fixed lateral distance between the skylight support components, ensuring the gap between the inner and outer frames of the tilting skylight, reducing on-site installation work, improving installation efficiency and material handling, and ensuring the free tilting and sealing of the skylight.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of door and window technology, and in particular to a data center frame-type panoramic skylight. Background Technology
[0002] In the data center industry, enclosed passageways are formed by relatively positioned server racks, side aisle doors, and skylights on top. Skylights typically consist of two parts: the skylight itself and the rack's top support structure. When assembling the skylight, the bottom supports must be aligned one by one before installing the rotating skylight itself. To improve passageway visibility and reduce skylight costs, panoramic skylights that eliminate the need for the horizontal bracing of the rotating skylight frame have been introduced to the market.
[0003] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a typical panoramic sunroof relies on the lateral installation distance between the two side support components to ensure the distance between the fixed outer frame and the inner frame. The size of the rotating inner frame is fixed, and there is a certain gap between the fixed outer frame and the rotating inner frame after installation, so that the inner frame can flip and fall.
[0004] like Figure 3 As shown, in a typical panoramic sunroof, each support is installed in an aligned manner, which makes it difficult to ensure the lateral distance between the supports on both sides along the entire length. This can lead to situations where the distance between the fixed outer frame of the sunroof is too small and the rotating part has no clearance, causing it to fail to rotate and fall. Utility Model Content
[0005] Based on the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a frame-type panoramic sunroof that can reduce on-site support and installation alignment work, ensure the lateral installation spacing between sunroof support components, and optimize the problem of ordinary panoramic sunroofs being easily clamped and unable to rotate or fall during installation.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is a data center frame-type panoramic skylight, including skylight support components, a tilting skylight body, and a cross-channel connecting beam, wherein:
[0007] The skylight support, which is vertically installed on the top of the independent frame on both sides of the passage, consists of a rectangular frame and a support plate fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame. The two vertical side frames of the rectangular frame are provided with prefabricated support alignment holes.
[0008] The tilt-and-turn sunroof body includes sunroof glass, a tilting inner frame, and a fixed outer frame, and its specific structure is as follows:
[0009] The front and rear ends of the sunroof glass are respectively fixedly connected to two flip-up inner frames. The flip-up inner frames are rotatably installed on the fixed outer frame via a pivot. The pivot is not located on the longitudinal center line of the sunroof glass. The flip-up inner frames can freely flip and fall under the action of eccentricity. The two fixed outer frames are respectively fixedly installed on the upper frame of the rectangular frame of the sunroof support on both sides of the passage. The fixed outer frames have pre-made holes for sunroof alignment on the left and right sides.
[0010] In specific implementation, the tilting sunroof body adopts a common suction mechanism on the market, such as an electromagnetic lock fixedly installed on the fixed outer frame and a suction plate fixedly installed on the tilting inner frame. When the sunroof glass is closed, the electromagnetic lock attracts the suction plate to keep the sunroof glass closed. In addition, the sunroof reset mechanism used to reset and close the sunroof glass after it has tilted and fallen adopts a common structure on the market, such as an electric push rod. Since this is not an improvement of this utility model, it will not be described in detail here.
[0011] The cross-channel connecting beam consists of vertical support rods and a horizontal beam. The two vertical support rods are respectively installed on the top of the independent frames on both sides of the channel, and the horizontal beam is fixedly connected to the top of the two vertical support rods.
[0012] The vertical support rod has a first prefabricated hole that is adapted to and aligned with the prefabricated hole aligned with the support, and the front and rear ends of the horizontal beam have a second prefabricated hole that is adapted to and aligned with the prefabricated hole aligned with the skylight.
[0013] During installation, a cross-channel connecting beam can be installed at each end of the channel, and multiple rotating sunroof bodies can be installed continuously in the middle.
[0014] The vertical side frame of the rectangular frame of the sunroof support component is aligned and positioned by the vertical support rod of the adjacent cross passage connecting beam through the support alignment prefabricated hole and the first prefabricated hole, thereby limiting the lateral distance between the sunroof support components to a fixed distance.
[0015] The fixed outer frame of the flip-up sunroof body and the horizontal beam of the cross-channel connecting beam are connected by alignment and positioning bolts through the sunroof alignment pre-fabricated holes and the second pre-fabricated hole. This ensures that all sunroofs are aligned between the first and last cross-channel connecting beams.
[0016] The fixed outer frame of the flip-up sunroof body is fixedly connected to the upper edge of the rectangular frame of the sunroof support component to ensure connection strength. The lower edge of the rectangular frame of the sunroof support component is fixedly connected to the top of the sunroof frame on both sides of the independent frame of the passage.
[0017] Furthermore, a limiting shim with a central through hole is detachably placed between the outer side of the flip inner frame and the inner side of the fixed outer frame. In the transport and non-use states (e.g., during installation), the transport screw passes through the through hole on the flip inner frame, the through hole on the limiting shim, and the threaded hole on the fixed outer frame in sequence, thereby fixing the flip inner frame and the fixed outer frame.
[0018] The limiting shims ensure the drop clearance between the inner rotating frame and the fixed outer frame, and also serve as a transport limit. After the sunroof is assembled, the limiting shims will fall off when the transport screws are removed. The only connection between the inner rotating frame and the fixed outer frame is the central pivot, allowing the inner rotating frame to freely rotate and fall under eccentric force.
[0019] Furthermore, the thickness of the limiting pad is 5mm.
[0020] Furthermore, the number of prefabricated support alignment holes opened on each vertical side frame of the rectangular frame is two, and the number of first prefabricated holes opened on the vertical support rod is also two.
[0021] Furthermore, the length of the skylight support component along the cabinet aisle is equal to the sum of the lengths of N flip-up skylight bodies along the cabinet aisle, where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1. Even when N is greater than 1, the upper and lower borders of the rectangular frame are both single, continuous borders, ensuring overall strength and reducing on-site installation while ensuring easy material handling. In this case, one or more longitudinal reinforcing columns can be fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame to guarantee strength.
[0022] Furthermore, N equals 3, meaning that the length of the skylight support along the cabinet passage is equal to the sum of the lengths of the three flip-up skylight bodies along the cabinet passage.
[0023] Furthermore, fully transparent sealing strips are fixedly installed at both ends of the sunroof glass, which can improve the sealing performance between the sunroof glass panes.
[0024] Furthermore, the support plate of the sunroof support component is made of glass, which can improve the overall light transmittance of the sunroof.
[0025] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0026] The crossbeams connecting the channels ensure the distance between the inner support of the panoramic sunroof, thereby ensuring the gap between the inner and outer frames of the tilting sunroof and allowing the inner frame of the sunroof to tilt and fall freely.
[0027] The limiting shims between the inner and outer frames of the sunroof ensure the clearance between the inner and outer frames during flipping and falling.
[0028] The main body of the flip-up sunroof can be prefabricated in the factory in units of cabinets, reducing on-site assembly of inner and outer frames and ensuring the overall weight is convenient for installers to operate.
[0029] Skylight support components can be provided in units of multiple flip-up skylight bodies or multiple cabinets, reducing on-site installation while ensuring easy material handling. Attached Figure Description

[0041] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0042] Example 1
[0043] Figures 4-10This illustration shows a first specific embodiment of the data center frame-type panoramic skylight of this utility model. The frame-type panoramic skylight is installed in a passageway with an independent frame 4, and the data equipment cabinet 5 is installed in the independent frame 4. The specific structure of the panoramic skylight is as follows:
[0044] Includes sunroof support component 1, tilting sunroof body 2, and cross-passage connecting beam 3, wherein:
[0045] The skylight support 1, which is vertically installed on the top of the independent frame 401 on both sides of the passage, consists of a rectangular frame 101 and a support plate 102 fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame 101. The support plate 102 is made of glass. Two support alignment prefabricated holes 101a are opened on each of the two vertical side frames on the left and right sides of the rectangular frame 101.
[0046] The length of the skylight support 1 along the cabinet passage is equal to the sum of the lengths of the three flip-up skylight bodies 2 along the cabinet passage. The upper and lower borders of the rectangular frame 101 are both made of a single piece of material, ensuring overall strength and reducing on-site installation while ensuring easy material handling. Two longitudinal reinforcing columns are fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame 101 to ensure strength.
[0047] The tilting sunroof body 2 includes a sunroof glass 201, a tilting inner frame 202, and a fixed outer frame 203, and its specific structure is as follows:
[0048] The front and rear ends of the sunroof glass 201 are fixedly connected to two flip-up inner frames 202, respectively. In this embodiment, the flip-up inner frames 202 are L-shaped. The front and rear ends of the sunroof glass 201 are fixedly connected to the horizontal parts of the bottom of the two flip-up inner frames 202, respectively. The flip-up inner frames 202 are rotatably mounted on the fixed outer frame 203 through the pivot 204. Specifically, the pivot 204 at the front and rear ends passes horizontally through the vertical part of the flip-up inner frame 202 and is connected to the fixed outer frame 203. The pivot 204 is not located on the longitudinal center line of the sunroof glass 201. The flip-up inner frame 202 can freely flip and fall under the action of eccentricity. The two fixed outer frames 203 are fixedly mounted on the upper edge of the rectangular frame 101 of the sunroof support member 1 on both sides of the passage. The fixed outer frame 203 has sunroof alignment pre-made holes 203a on the left and right sides.
[0049] The tilting sunroof body 2 adopts an existing electromagnetic attraction mechanism. An electromagnetic lock 208 is fixedly installed on the fixed outer frame 203, and a suction plate 209 is fixedly installed on the tilting inner frame 202. When the sunroof glass 201 is closed, the electromagnetic lock 208 attracts the suction plate 209 to keep the sunroof glass 201 closed. In addition, the sunroof reset mechanism for resetting the sunroof glass 201 after it has tilted and fallen adopts a structure commonly found in the market, such as an electric push rod.
[0050] The cross-channel connecting beam 3 consists of a vertical support rod 301 and a horizontal beam 302. The two vertical support rods 301 are respectively installed on the top of the independent frame 401 on both sides of the channel. The horizontal beam 302 is fixedly connected to the top of the two vertical support rods 301.
[0051] Each vertical support rod 301 has two first prefabricated holes 301a that are adapted to and aligned with the prefabricated holes 101a of the support, and the horizontal beam 302 has second prefabricated holes 302a that are adapted to and aligned with the prefabricated holes 203a of the skylight at both ends.
[0052] In this embodiment, a cross-channel connecting beam 3 is installed at each end of the channel, and three flip-up skylight bodies 2 are continuously installed in the middle.
[0053] The vertical side frame of the rectangular frame 101 of the sunroof support component 1 and the vertical support rod 301 of the adjacent cross passage connecting beam 3 are aligned and positioned by bolts through the support alignment pre-made hole 101a and the first pre-made hole 301a, thereby limiting the lateral distance between the sunroof support components 1 to a fixed distance.
[0054] The fixed outer frame 203 of the flip-up sunroof body 2 and the horizontal beam 302 of the cross-channel connecting beam 3 are connected by alignment positioning bolts through the sunroof alignment pre-made hole 203a and the second pre-made hole 302a. This ensures that all sunroofs between the first and last cross-channel connecting beams 3 are aligned.
[0055] The fixed outer frame 203 of the flip-up sunroof body 2 is fixedly connected to the upper edge of the rectangular frame 101 of the sunroof support component 1 by bolts to ensure connection strength. The lower edge of the rectangular frame 101 of the sunroof support component 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the sunroof frame 401 of the independent frames 4 on both sides of the passage by bolts.
[0056] A limiting washer 205 with a central through hole is detachably placed between the outer side of the flipping inner frame 202 and the inner side of the fixed outer frame 203. The limiting washer 205 has a thickness of 5mm. The transport screw 206 passes sequentially through the through hole on the flipping inner frame 202, the through hole on the limiting washer 205, and the threaded hole on the fixed outer frame 203, thereby fixing the flipping inner frame 202 and the fixed outer frame 203.
[0057] The limiting shim 205 ensures the drop gap between the flip-up inner frame 202 and the fixed outer frame 203, and also serves as a transport limit. After the sunroof is assembled, the limiting shim will fall off when the transport screws 206 are removed. The only connection between the flip-up inner frame 202 and the fixed outer frame 203 is the central pivot 204, allowing the flip-up inner frame 202 to freely flip and fall under eccentric action.
[0058] The sunroof glass 201 is fixedly installed with fully transparent sealing strips 207 at both ends to improve the sealing between the sunroof glass 201.
[0059] In this embodiment, the width of the cross-channel connecting beam is the same as the width of the independent frame sunroof, effectively ensuring the distance between sunroofs. The length of the sunroof along the cabinet channel is the same as the cabinet size, realizing the overall modular assembly layout and effectively ensuring that the sunroof can be opened and closed freely.

[0061] Figure 11 This illustration shows a second specific embodiment of the data center frame-type panoramic skylight of this utility model. The structure of the panoramic skylight in this embodiment is basically the same as in embodiment 1, except that it is used in renovation projects. The panoramic skylight is directly installed on the top of the server rack 5. Specifically, a cross-channel connecting beam 3 and skylight support 1 are first constructed on the top of the server rack 5, and then the flip-up skylight body 2 is installed sequentially, effectively ensuring the skylight can be opened and closed. Only one longitudinal reinforcing column is fixedly installed within the rectangular frame 101 of the skylight support 1.
