Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] In the embodiments of this application, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," and "side" are generally used in the following ways: Figure 1 The relative positions shown are based on the given information, and these directional terms are used only to more clearly describe the relationships between structures, not to describe absolute positions. Positions may change when the product is placed in different orientations; for example, "up" and "down" may be interchanged.

[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all technical terms used in the embodiments of this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art.

[0029] To make the technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] The first aspect of this application provides a bracket, such as Figure 1 As shown, the support includes a housing 1 and a frame 2, wherein,

[0031] The frame 2 includes a first stop structure 21, a second stop structure 22 and a support part 23. The first stop structure 21 and the second stop structure 22 are arranged at both ends of the support part 23 along the first horizontal direction, and the first stop structure 21 is located on the outside of the shell 1 and the second stop structure 22 is located on the inside of the shell 1.

[0032] The support part 23 can move along the first horizontal direction and enter and exit the housing 1 through the opening of the housing 1;

[0033] The support includes switching between working and non-working states;

[0034] In the working state, at least a portion of the support 23 is located outside the housing 1, and the second stop structure 22 abuts against the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 1.

[0035] In the non-working state, the entire support part 23 is located inside the housing 1, and the first stop structure 21 abuts against the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1.

[0036] With the above arrangement, the housing 1 can be placed inside the server, serving as the support component 23. By extending the support component 23 out of the opening in the housing 1, pipes and other fittings can be supported by the support component 23, which also provides a binding point for cable ties. The connection between the second stop structure 22 and the housing 1 provides support force to the support component 23, improving the stability of the fittings. When not in use, the first stop structure 21 confines the support component 23 within the housing 1, thus facilitating the storage of the frame 2.

[0037] In related technologies, the surface of the server rack is generally flat, and the cable ties do not have sufficient contact area with it during binding, which can lead to the cable ties loosening. The cable ties can be wrapped around the support 23 to achieve binding, which helps to reduce the possibility of the cable ties loosening.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, in the working state, at least a portion of the support portion 23 is located outside the housing 1, the second stop structure 22 abuts against the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 1, and the support portion 23 located on the outer side of the housing 1 can be used for cable ties.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, in the non-working state, the entire support part 23 is located inside the housing 1, the first stop structure 21 abuts against the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1, and the frame 2 can be housed inside the housing 1, which helps to reduce the interference caused by the protruding support part 23.

[0040] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the housing 1 may have a receiving cavity 101 inside to accommodate the frame 2. The housing 1 may include an upper cover 11 and a bottom shell 12, with the edge of the upper cover 11 connected to the edge of the bottom shell 12, thereby forming the receiving cavity 101.

[0041] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first stop structure 21 includes a first stop plate 211 and a first connector 212. The first stop plate 211 is connected to the end of the support portion 23 and is located outside the housing 1. In the non-working state, the first stop plate 211 abuts against the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1, and the first connector 212 is used to connect the first stop plate 211 to the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1.

[0042] With the above arrangement, in the non-working state, the first stop plate 211, by abutting against the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1, can transmit the gravity force exerted by the support part 23 on the water pipes and other fittings, thus helping the support part 23 maintain a relatively stable posture. The first stop plate 211 is located on the outside of the housing 1, which allows the user to switch the support part 23 between the working and non-working states by pulling the first stop plate 211.

[0043] In this embodiment of the application, the first connector 212 can connect the first stop plate 211 to the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1 by means of snap-fit ​​or other methods.

[0044] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the second stop structure 22 includes a second stop plate 221 and a second connector 222. The second stop plate 221 is connected to the end of the support portion 23 and is located inside the housing 1. In the working state, the second stop plate 221 abuts against the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 1, and the second connector 222 is used to connect the second stop plate 221 to the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 1.

[0045] With the above arrangement, the second stop plate 221 abuts against the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 1, which can confine the support part 23 inside the housing 1 and prevent the second stop plate 221 from leaving the housing 1 through the opening of the housing 1 and causing interference.

[0046] In this embodiment of the application, the second connector 222 can connect the second stop plate 221 to the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1 by means of snap-fit ​​or other means.

[0047] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first stop structure 21 includes a first stop plate 211 and a first connector 212. The first stop plate 211 is connected to the end of the support portion 23 and is located on the outside of the housing 1. In the non-working state, the first stop plate 211 abuts against the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1, and the first connector 212 is used to connect the first stop plate 211 to the outer surface of the side wall of the housing 1. The second stop structure 22 includes a second stop plate 221 and a second connector 222. The second stop plate 221 is connected to the end of the support portion 23 and is located on the inside of the housing 1. In the working state, the second stop plate 221 abuts against the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 1, and the second connector 222 is used to connect the second stop plate 221 to the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 1.

[0048] With the above arrangement, the frame 2 has sufficient stability in both working and non-working states, which is conducive to the storage of the frame 2 and the support of the pipe fittings.

[0049] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the housing 1 includes a first mounting hole 102, which is located on the side wall of the housing 1. The first stop plate 211 includes a first connecting hole 2111, and the first connector 212 is used to pass through the first connecting hole 2111 and be fastened to the first mounting hole 102.

[0050] With the above arrangement, when the first connecting hole 2111 is fastened to the first connecting member 212 and the first mounting hole 102, it can be subjected to the pressure generated by the fastening connection of the first connecting member 212. This pressure acts on the first stop plate 211, which can achieve the contact between the first stop plate 211 and the wall of the housing 1, so that the support part 23 can be in a non-working state.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first connector 212 and the first mounting hole 102 can be fastened together by threaded connection.

[0052] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the housing 1 includes a second connecting hole 103, which is located on the side wall of the housing 1. The second stop plate 221 includes a second mounting hole 2211. The second connector 222 is used to pass through the second connecting hole 103 and be fastened to the second mounting hole 2211.

[0053] With the above arrangement, when the second connector 222 is fastened to the second mounting hole 2211, the second stop plate 221 can abut against the side wall of the housing 1, so that the support part 23 can be in working state.

[0054] In this embodiment, the second connector 222 and the second mounting hole 2211 can be fastened together by threaded connection.

[0055] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the housing 1 includes a first mounting hole 102 located on the side wall of the housing 1, a first stop plate 211 including a first connecting hole 2111, and a first connector 212 for passing through the first connecting hole 2111 and being fastened to the first mounting hole 102; and / or, the housing 1 includes a second connecting hole 103 located on the side wall of the housing 1, a second stop plate 221 including a second mounting hole 2211, and a second connector 222 for passing through the second connecting hole 103 and being fastened to the second mounting hole 2211.

[0056] With the above arrangement, the support can maintain the stability of the positional relationship between the support part 23 and the housing 1 by abutting against the side wall of the housing 1 in both working and non-working states.

[0057] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1As shown, there is one first connector 212 and two second connectors 222, with the two second connectors 222 located on opposite sides of the first connector 212.

[0058] With the above arrangement, since the support part 23 needs to support the pipe fitting when in working condition, the two second connectors 222 help to improve the support stability of the bracket.

[0059] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 2 As shown, the support part 23 includes a base plate 231 and a plurality of positioning posts 232, which are arranged at intervals on the top surface of the base plate 231.

[0060] With the above arrangement, the positioning posts 232 can be used to abut against the ends of the pipe fitting to achieve positioning and limiting of the pipe fitting, which is beneficial for the pipe fitting to be supported by the base plate 231. For example, the ends of the pipe fitting can abut against the side walls of the two positioning posts 232 to help fix their position.

[0061] In this embodiment, the number of positioning posts 232 can be determined according to the number of pipe fittings.

[0062] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 2 As shown, the support part 23 includes a wire hole 2301, which is arranged vertically through the base plate 231.

[0063] With the above arrangement, the wire hole 2301 can be used for cable ties and other structures to pass through, so that with the cooperation of the positioning post 232, the pipe on the base plate 231 can be tied to the support part 23, which helps to improve the stability of the pipe.

[0064] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, the housing 1 includes two guide parts 13, which are located inside the housing 1 and spaced apart along the first horizontal direction, and the frame 2 is located between the two guide parts 13.

[0065] With the above arrangement, the guide part 13 can guide the movement direction of the frame 2. The frame 2 can be interfered with when it deviates from its movement direction by contacting the guide part 13. The interference of the two guide parts 13 makes the movement direction of the frame 2 relatively fixed, and the support part 23 can move in and out of the seat.

[0066] In this embodiment, the two guide parts 13 can be guide rail structures, which can guide the frame 2.

[0067] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1As shown, the support includes multiple frame bodies 2, which are arranged at intervals along the second horizontal direction.

[0068] With the above arrangement, multiple frames 2 can support different positions of the pipe fittings and fix the pipe fittings with the binding action of cable ties, thereby improving the stability of the pipe fittings.

[0069] A second aspect of this application provides a server rack, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cabinet includes a cabinet body 3 and a bracket as described in the above technical solution, with the bracket located inside the cabinet body 3.

[0070] With the above arrangement, the bracket located inside the cabinet 3 can be stored in the cabinet while also serving as a structure to support other components inside the cabinet 3, thus improving the structural compactness of the mechanism.

[0071] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cabinet also includes at least one liquid cooling line, which is placed on the support 23 when the bracket is in operation.

[0072] With the above arrangement, the liquid cooling pipes are placed on the support 23, which can be used to dissipate heat from the components inside the cabinet.

[0073] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cabinet includes multiple supports, which are stacked vertically, with a 300mm space between adjacent supports.

[0074] With the above arrangement, multiple brackets can serve as support structures for other components inside the cabinet, and the space 300 between the brackets can accommodate these other components that require bracket support.

[0075] A third aspect of this application provides a server, which includes a bracket as described above and / or a cabinet as described above.

[0076] Since the brackets and / or cabinets of the above embodiments are used, they have the same technical effects as those of the above embodiments, and will not be described again here.

[0077] In this application embodiment, the server can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communication, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content delivery networks (CDNs), and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. The terminal can be a smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop computer, smart speaker, smartwatch, etc., but is not limited to these.
