[0054] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0055] The principle of the rack 1000 proposed in this application will be explained in detail below:

[0056] In related technologies, the fans of electrical equipment are noisy and have a short lifespan, which affects the stability of the electrical equipment.

[0057] To solve this technical problem, this application provides a cabinet 1000, as described below. Figures 1-9 The cabinet 1000 according to an embodiment of this application is described.

[0058] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the cabinet 1000 in this embodiment of the application includes: cabinet 100, fan 200 and suspension 300.

[0059] The cabinet 100 in this embodiment is a rectangular structure, but it can also be a pentagon or other shapes. The cabinet 100 is hollow inside for installing the fan 200.

[0060] The 200 fan can be either a centrifugal fan or an axial fan.

[0061] In this embodiment, the fan 200 can be a wind-cooled centrifugal fan. The wind-cooled centrifugal fan adopts forced air cooling to dissipate the heat generated by the high-heat power devices. The wind-cooled centrifugal fan has good ventilation effect and can ensure good heat dissipation effect.

[0062] It should be noted that the fan 200 can be installed horizontally, vertically, or at an angle. Different installation directions require adjustment of the suspension stiffness 300 to achieve optimal vibration isolation and stability performance.

[0063] like Figures 5-9 As shown, the suspension 300 includes: a first connector 310, a vibration damping element 320, and a second connector 330.

[0064] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 are connected by a vibration damping element 320.

[0065] The vibration damping element 320 is used to achieve a flexible connection between the fan 200 and the cabinet 100. The vibration damping element 320 can be rubber, air spring, coil spring or steel leaf spring, etc.

[0066] In this embodiment, the vibration damping element 320 can be made of rubber. Rubber vibration damping elements have good elasticity, wear resistance and insulation, and are easy to process and mold.

[0067] like Figure 9 As shown, the first connector 310 is connected to the fan 200. The connection method between the first connector 310 and the fan 200 can be welding, bolting, or gluing.

[0068] In this embodiment, the first connector 310 and the fan 200 can be connected by bolts, which has high connection strength and is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0069] like Figure 9 As shown, the second connector 330 is connected to the cabinet 100. The connection method between the second connector 330 and the cabinet 100 can be welding, bolting, gluing, or plugging.

[0070] In this embodiment, the second connector 330 can be connected to the cabinet 100 by bolts, which provides high connection strength and is easy to assemble and disassemble.

[0071] In related technologies, fans are usually directly connected to the cabinet, which often integrates a large number of power devices. During operation, a complex vibration environment is generated, causing the vibration to be directly transmitted to the fan, causing the fan body to vibrate. Under long-term action, key components such as bearings inside the fan are prone to wear, accelerating the failure of the fan, reducing its service life, and thus affecting the stability and reliability of the entire electrical equipment. At the same time, fan vibration also generates noise, affecting the operating environment of the electrical equipment and the user experience.

[0072] In this embodiment, the cabinet 1000 has a vibration damping element 320 installed between a first connector 310 and a second connector 330. The first connector 310 is connected to the fan 200, and the second connector 330 is connected to the cabinet 100. When the vibration generated by the power devices inside the cabinet 100 is transmitted to the fan 200 through the cabinet 100, the vibration is first transmitted to the vibration damping element 320 via the second connector 330. The vibration damping element 320 has elastic damping characteristics, which reduces the vibration amplitude. The vibration transmitted to the fan 200 via the first connector 310 is reduced or eliminated, reducing the impact of external vibration on the fan 200, helping to protect the internal structure of the fan 200, extending the service life of the fan 200, reducing noise, and improving the stability and reliability of electrical equipment.

[0073] According to the cabinet 1000 provided in the embodiment of this application, the fan 200 is installed on the cabinet 100 by the suspension 300, which reduces or eliminates the vibration transmitted to the fan 200, reduces the influence of external vibration on the fan 200, extends the service life of the fan 200, reduces noise, and improves the stability and reliability of electrical equipment.

[0074] In some embodiments, such as Figures 5-9 As shown, both the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 may include a tubular structure.

[0075] One of the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 is sleeved on the outside of the other, and the vibration damping element 320 is sleeved between the first connector 310 and the second connector 330.

[0076] In this embodiment, the aperture of the first connector 310 is larger than the aperture of the second connector 330, the first connector 310 is sleeved outside the second connector 330, and the vibration damping element 320 is sleeved between the first connector 310 and the second connector 330.

[0077] It should be noted that the aperture and wall thickness of the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 can be set according to the actual use, and no specific restrictions are imposed in this embodiment.

[0078] According to the embodiment of this application, the cabinet 1000 can effectively utilize space while providing the necessary strength and rigidity by designing the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 as tubular structures.

[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6-8 As shown, the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 may be provided with a first concave-convex structure 312 and a second concave-convex structure 332, respectively.

[0080] like Figure 7 As shown, the first concave-convex structure 312 is located on the wall surface of the first connector 310 facing the vibration damping element 320, as... Figure 8 As shown, the second concave-convex structure 332 is located on the wall of the second connector 330 facing the vibration damping element 320.

[0081] In this embodiment, the first concave-convex structure 312 consists of multiple arc-shaped protrusions surrounding the inner surface of the first connector 310, and the second concave-convex structure 332 consists of multiple arc-shaped protrusions surrounding the outer surface of the second connector 330. The vibration damping element 320 is made of rubber and is vulcanized on the first concave-convex structure 312 and the second concave-convex structure 332. It has good wear resistance and elasticity, and the structure is relatively stable and reliable.

[0082] It should be noted that the number of arc-shaped protrusions can be set according to actual usage, and no specific limit is imposed in this embodiment.

[0083] According to the cabinet 1000 provided in the embodiments of this application, the stability of the vibration damping element 320 is improved by providing a first concave-convex structure 312 and a second concave-convex structure 332 on the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 respectively.

[0084] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, both ends of the damping element 320 can be located inside the ends of the tubular structures of the first connector 310 and the second connector 330.

[0085] In this embodiment, the vibration damping element 320 is made of rubber. The vibration damping element 320 is vulcanized on the first concave-convex structure 312 and the second concave-convex structure 332. After vulcanization, the vibration damping element 320 is at a certain distance from the ends of the tubular structures of the first connector 310 and the second connector 330, that is, there is a certain space between the end face of the vibration damping element 320 and the ends of the tubular structures of the first connector 310 and the second connector 330.

[0086] It should be noted that when the first connector 310 and the second connector 330 transmit vibration, the damping element 320 can have greater elastic deformation in the free space, resulting in a better vibration suppression effect.

[0087] According to the cabinet 1000 provided in the embodiments of this application, by setting the assembly relationship between the vibration damping element 320, the first connector 310 and the second connector 330, the vibration can be better suppressed by elastic deformation, the noise can be reduced and the stability of the electrical equipment can be improved.

[0088] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the second connector 330 may protrude from the first connector 310.

[0089] The first connector 310 is sleeved outside the second connector 330, and at least one end of the second connector 330 protrudes axially from the first connector 310.

[0090] The second connector 330 may protrude axially from the first connector 310 at one end, or the second connector 330 may protrude axially from the first connector 310 at both ends.

[0091] In this embodiment, the end of the second connector 330 near the cabinet 100 can protrude axially from the first connector 310, so that the fan 200 and the cabinet 100 maintain a certain distance. The fan 200 and the cabinet 100 are connected by the suspension 300, the contact surface is small, the transmitted vibration is reduced, the vibration reduction effect is improved, and the noise of the cabinet 1000 is low.

[0092] According to the embodiment of this application, the cabinet 1000 has a second connector 330 protruding from the first connector 310, which reduces the contact area between the fan 200 and the cabinet 100, resulting in less transmitted vibration, better vibration reduction effect, and lower noise in the cabinet 1000.

[0093] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6-9 As shown, the first connector 310 may have a first flange 313, and the second connector 330 may have a second flange 333.

[0094] like Figure 9 As shown, the first flange 313 is connected to the fan 200.

[0095] In this embodiment, the first flange 313 is located at the bottom end of the first connector 310.

[0096] The connection between the first flange 313 and the fan 200 can be achieved by welding, bolting, or gluing.

[0097] In this embodiment, the first flange 313 and the fan 200 can be connected by bolts, which provides high connection strength and is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0098] like Figure 9 As shown, the second flange 333 is connected to the cabinet 100.

[0099] In this embodiment, the second flange 333 is located at the bottom end of the second connector 330.

[0100] The connection between the second flange 333 and the cabinet 100 can be achieved by welding, bolting, gluing, or plugging.

[0101] In this embodiment, the second flange 333 can be connected to the cabinet 100 by bolts, which provides high connection strength and is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0102] According to the embodiment of this application, the cabinet 1000 has a high connection strength and is easy to disassemble and assemble by respectively providing a first flange 313 and a second flange 333 on the first connector 310 and the second connector 330.

[0103] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6-8 As shown, the first connector 310 may include a first sleeve 311 and a first flange 313, and the second connector 330 may include a second sleeve 331 and a second flange 333.

[0104] like Figure 9 As shown, the first flange 313 is connected to the end of the first sleeve 311, and the first flange 313 is connected to the fan 200.

[0105] like Figure 9 As shown, the second flange 333 is connected to the end of the second sleeve 331, and the second flange 333 is connected to the cabinet 100.

[0106] The first flange 313 can be bolted to the fan 200, and the second flange 333 can be bolted to the cabinet 100. The connection strength is high and it is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0107] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the second sleeve 331 may be partially threaded, and the screws are connected to the sleeve by bolts on the other side of the cabinet, which improves stability when subjected to vibration.

[0108] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the second sleeve 331 may be entirely threaded.

[0109] The first sleeve 311, the vibration damping element 320, and the second sleeve 331 are sequentially installed from the outside to the inside.

[0110] The outer diameter of the second flange 333 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first sleeve 311.

[0111] In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the second flange 333 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first sleeve 311. When the vibration damping element 320 is subjected to vibration compression, the second flange 333 can enter the interior of the first sleeve 311, increasing the elastic deformation distance of the vibration damping element 320, improving the ability to suppress vibration, and resulting in better vibration damping effect.

[0112] The second flange 333 protrudes axially from the outside of the first sleeve 311, and the fan 200 is separated from the mounting surface of the cabinet 100.

[0113] In this embodiment, the second flange 333 can protrude axially from the first connector 310, so that the fan 200 and the cabinet 100 maintain a certain distance. The fan 200 and the cabinet 100 are connected by the suspension 300, the contact surface is small, the transmitted vibration is reduced, the vibration reduction effect is improved, and the noise of the cabinet 1000 is low.

[0114] According to the embodiment of this application, the cabinet 1000 improves the vibration suppression capability by setting the assembly relationship between the second flange 333 of the second connector 330 and the first sleeve 311 of the first connector 310, resulting in a better vibration reduction effect and lower noise in the cabinet 1000.

[0115] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the fan 200 may include: a mounting plate 210 and a fan body 220.

[0116] The first connector 310 is connected to the mounting plate 210. The connection method between the first connector 310 and the mounting plate 210 can be welding, bolting, or gluing.

[0117] In this embodiment, the first connector 310 and the mounting plate 210 can be connected by bolts, which has high connection strength and is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0118] The fan body 220 is mounted on the mounting plate 210.

[0119] In this embodiment, the fan body 220 and the mounting plate 210 can be connected by threads, which provides high connection strength and is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0120] The mounting plate 210 can be made of materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, fiberglass or galvanized steel, and no specific restrictions are made in this embodiment.

[0121] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 210 has ventilation holes in the middle for heat dissipation of power devices.

[0122] According to the cabinet 1000 provided in the embodiment of this application, the fan body 220 is connected to the suspension 300 through the mounting plate 210, which has good stability. At the same time, multiple suspensions 300 can be installed, which has a good vibration reduction effect.

[0123] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the mounting plate 210 may have mounting holes 211.

[0124] The first connector 310 is mounted in the mounting hole 211, which helps to position the first connector 310.

[0125] The second connector 330 passes through the mounting hole 211.

[0126] In this embodiment, the mounting holes 211 are located at the four corners of the mounting plate 210, which ensures good stability while ensuring the number of second connectors 330 installed.

[0127] Mounting plate 210 is spaced apart from the mounting surface of cabinet 100.

[0128] In this embodiment, the second connector 330 passes through the mounting hole 211 and connects to the cabinet 100, so that the fan 200 and the cabinet 100 maintain a certain distance. The fan 200 and the cabinet 100 are connected by the suspension 300, the contact surface is small, the transmitted vibration is reduced, the vibration reduction effect is improved, and the noise of the cabinet 1000 is low.

[0129] According to the cabinet 1000 provided in the embodiment of this application, by providing mounting holes 211 on the mounting plate 210, it is convenient to connect the first connector 310 and pass through the second connector 330, which helps to suspend the fan 200 300 on the cabinet 100, reduce vibration, and has a better vibration reduction effect.

[0130] In some embodiments, the fan body 220 is installed in the middle of the mounting plate 210, the mounting holes 211 are provided at the four corners of the mounting plate 210, the first flange 313 of the first connector 310 is installed at the mounting hole 211, the first sleeve 311 of the first connector 310, the vibration damping element 320 and the second sleeve 331 of the second connector 330 are arranged sequentially from the outside to the inside, the vibration damping element 320 cooperates with the first concave-convex structure 312 of the first connector 310 and the second concave-convex structure 332 of the second connector 330, and the second flange 333 of the second connector 330 passes through the mounting hole 211 and is connected to the cabinet 100 to reduce the vibration transmitted between the cabinet 100 and the fan 200.

[0131] Understandably, the suspension 300 can also reduce the reaction force of the fan 200 on the cabinet 100 to a certain extent, reduce the overall vibration level of the cabinet 1000, and further improve the stability and quietness of the electrical equipment.

[0132] According to the cabinet 1000 provided in the embodiment of this application, the fan 200 is installed on the cabinet 100 by the suspension 300, which reduces or eliminates the vibration transmitted between the cabinet 100 and the fan 200, reduces the impact of external vibration on the fan 200, extends the service life of the fan 200, reduces noise, and improves the stability and reliability of electrical equipment.

[0151] In this embodiment, the cabinet 1000 has a vibration damping element 320 installed between a first connector 310 and a second connector 330. The first connector 310 is connected to the fan 200, and the second connector 330 is connected to the cabinet 100. When the vibration generated by the power devices inside the cabinet 100 is transmitted to the fan 200 through the cabinet 100, the vibration is first transmitted to the vibration damping element 320 via the second connector 330. The vibration damping element 320 has elastic damping characteristics, which reduces the vibration amplitude. The vibration transmitted to the fan 200 via the first connector 310 is reduced or eliminated, reducing the impact of external vibration on the fan 200, helping to protect the internal structure of the fan 200, extending the service life of the fan 200, reducing noise, and improving the stability and reliability of electrical equipment.

[0152] According to the fan 200 assembly provided in the embodiments of this application, the fan 200 is installed on the cabinet 100 by the suspension 300, which reduces or eliminates the vibration transmitted to the fan 200, reduces the impact of external vibration on the fan 200, extends the service life of the fan 200, reduces noise, and improves the stability and reliability of electrical equipment.
