[0027] The following description, in conjunction with Figures 1 and 2, describes the rodent-blocking device for computer rooms provided by this utility model.
[0028] Given that traditional technologies lack rodent-proofing devices in computer rooms, leading to easy damage to machinery and equipment by rats, this utility model provides a rodent-proofing device for computer rooms, installed in front of the computer room door 6. The device includes a mounting base 1 and a rodent-proof plate 2.
[0029] The rodent-blocking device provided by this utility model is suitable for computer rooms with a height difference from the ground 5. The mounting base 1 has a certain height and can be set against the computer room door 6. The upper end of the mounting base 1 is used to connect with the computer room door 6, and the lower end of the mounting base 1 is used to support the ground 5. One end of the rodent-blocking plate 2 is rotatably set on the upper end of the mounting base 1 so that the rodent-blocking plate 2 has at least a first state and a second state. Referring to Figure 1, in the first state, the rodent-blocking plate 2 is set vertically on the mounting base 1, which can prevent rodents from entering the computer room door 6. Referring to Figure 2, in the second state, the rodent-blocking plate 2 is set at an angle on the mounting base 1, and the end of the rodent-blocking plate 2 is connected to the ground 5. The rodent-blocking plate 2 forms a ramp, and its surface can support the passage of the inspection robot.
[0030] It should be noted that the width of the rodent barrier 2 should be the same as or slightly larger than the width of the computer room door 6. This prevents rats from entering the computer room through the gap between the rodent barrier 2 and the computer room door 6. Compared to computer rooms without rodent-proof devices or with static rodent barriers, the rodent-proof device provided by this utility model not only provides rodent protection but can also work in conjunction with inspection robots. It has a simple structure and is stable and reliable.
[0031] As mentioned earlier, the rodent barrier 2, in its second state, can support the passage of the inspection robot. To accommodate inspection robots of different sizes and types, the rodent barrier 2 includes multiple telescopically connected barriers. By adjusting the extension and retraction of each barrier, the length of the rodent barrier 2 can be adjusted, allowing it to have various slopes when tilted. Understandably, smaller robots can climb the rodent barrier 2 with a steeper slope, while larger robots can only climb the rodent barrier 2 with a gentler slope. The extension and retraction length of the rodent barrier 2 can be adjusted according to the size and type of robot to facilitate stable passage for different robots.
[0032] Specifically, the rodent-blocking plate 2 includes a main plate 21 and sub-plates 22 sequentially sleeved within the main plate 21. The computer room rodent-blocking device includes a telescopic drive component. In an optional embodiment, the telescopic drive component includes a lead screw, a first drive motor, and multiple nuts. The lead screw is located within the main plate 21 and extends along the length of the main plate 21. The first drive motor is located within the main plate 21 and is used to drive the lead screw to rotate. Multiple nuts are threadedly connected to the lead screw and are spaced apart along the axial direction of the lead screw. The sub-plates 22 are connected to the corresponding nuts. It should be noted that the nuts are positioned differently on the lead screw, and nuts at different positions are connected to different sub-plates 22. For example, starting from the end of the nut furthest from the first drive motor, the first nut corresponds to the first telescopic sub-plate 22, the second nut corresponds to the second telescopic sub-plate 22, and so on, achieving the effect of different sub-plates 22 extending sequentially. In another optional embodiment, the telescopic drive component includes a telescopic cylinder disposed within the main baffle 21. The telescopic cylinder includes multiple telescopic sections, each of which is connected to a separate baffle 22. It is understood that the first telescopic section extends first, bringing out the first extended baffle 22, followed by the second telescopic section extending, bringing out the second extended baffle 22, and so on, achieving the effect of sequential extension of each baffle 22. It should be noted that the relationship between the driving amount of the first drive motor and the telescopic cylinder and the telescopic extension amount of the baffle 2 can be calculated in advance. This allows for the corresponding control of the driving amount of the first drive motor and the telescopic cylinder according to the robot's passage requirements.
[0033] Furthermore, the rodent-blocking device in the computer room includes a rotary drive component 3. The rotary drive component 3 includes a second drive motor 31 and a rotating shaft 32 disposed on the mounting base 1. The second drive motor 31 drives and connects to the rotating shaft 32, which extends along the length direction of the mounting base 1. The main baffle 21 is disposed on the rotating shaft 32. In an optional embodiment, the second drive motor 31 can be directly disposed on the upper surface of the mounting base 1, and the rotating shaft 32 can also be disposed on the upper surface. In this case, the rotating shaft 32 needs to be supported by a bracket, so that the rodent-blocking plate 2 will be a certain distance away from the upper surface of the mounting base 1. In this case, the rodent-blocking plate 2 will not interfere with the upper surface of the mounting base 1 when it rotates and tilts. In another optional embodiment, the mounting base 1 includes at least a first step 11 and a second step 12 arranged sequentially along the height direction. The second drive motor 31 is disposed in the second step 12, and the rotating shaft 32 is disposed on the edge of the second step 12. It should be noted that mounting base 1 is designed in the form of a common staircase. When the rodent barrier 2 is in its first state, mounting base 1 allows users to walk into the machine room. In this state, the rodent barrier 2 is at its shortest extension, allowing users to step over it to enter the machine room. When the rodent barrier 2 is in its second state, it provides support for the robot, facilitating its movement into the machine room and avoiding the problem of the robot being unable to use stairs. Of course, if a staircase is already installed at the machine room door 6 in practical applications, then mounting base 1 is not necessary; the existing staircase at the machine room door 6 can be used as mounting base 1.
[0034] Furthermore, the second drive motor 31 is equipped with a reduction gear mechanism to adapt to the working conditions of the rotating shaft 32 reducing speed and increasing torque. The rotating shaft 32 is rigidly connected to the rodent-blocking plate 2, enabling the rodent-blocking plate 2 to rotate around the shaft. The second drive motor 31 is a three-phase asynchronous motor, which can be connected in a Y-type configuration to achieve smooth start-up. The second drive motor 31 can also be equipped with a thermal overload relay to ensure that the motor is not burned out in the event of a stall.
[0035] As mentioned above, the rodent barrier 2 allows the robot to pass through during inspections. To facilitate the linkage between the rodent barrier 2 and the robot, the rodent barrier device in this invention also includes a controller and a communicator mounted on the mounting base 1. The controller, communicator, and rodent barrier 2 are electrically connected. The communicator receives robot signals, and the controller controls the rodent barrier 2 to rotate to a second state when the communicator receives a robot signal, facilitating robot passage. Furthermore, the controller can obtain the corresponding robot model during communication with the communicator to facilitate controlling the extension and retraction of the rodent barrier 2.
[0036] Furthermore, the computer room rodent-proof device also includes a rodent repellent 4 installed on the mounting base 1. The rodent repellent 4 is electrically connected to the controller. The rodent repellent 4 is used to play sound waves of a preset frequency when the rodent-proof plate 2 is rotated to the second state to drive away the rodents. This can prevent the rodents from entering the computer room when the rodent-proof plate 2 is tilted.
[0037] Furthermore, the rodent barrier 2 may cause inconvenience when moving certain objects. Therefore, in the technical solution provided by this utility model, the rodent barrier 2 also includes a third state. In the third state, the rodent barrier 2 is rotated to fit the upper surface of the mounting base 1, so that the rodent barrier 2 can be parallel to the upper surface of the mounting base 1, which facilitates dragging and moving goods.
[0038] The rodent barrier 2 uses a welded steel frame as its skeleton, while the entire panel is made of aluminum alloy, ensuring the structural strength required to support the inspection robot while reducing weight. Furthermore, a needle roller bearing hinge is used at the rotating shaft 32 to meet the high load-bearing requirements within a limited volume.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
