Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of server technology, and more specifically, to a terminal block conversion assembly and a network device. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, network devices typically have their wiring ports installed in fixed locations. For example, servers usually have network cable interfaces on the front or rear panels. This approach limits the flexibility of server deployment in data centers under different network cabling requirements. For instance, in some Internet Data Center (IDC) environments, servers may need to use rear panel cabling to optimize cabling management or meet specific space configuration needs; while in other scenarios, front panel cabling may be necessary to simplify maintenance and upgrades.

[0003] Because the server models proposed in the relevant technologies cannot flexibly adjust the outgoing cable direction, in actual application scenarios, users have to choose a specific type of server according to cabling requirements, or make complex cabling adjustments in the data center. This not only increases deployment costs, but may also affect the overall aesthetics and management efficiency of the data center. Utility Model Content

[0036] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in a more comprehensive manner with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the exemplary embodiments can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to these examples; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this application will be more comprehensive and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art.

[0037] Furthermore, the features, structures, or characteristics described in this application can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. Numerous specific details are provided in the following description to provide a full understanding of the embodiments of this application. However, those skilled in the art will recognize that when implementing the technical solutions of this application, not all the detailed features in the embodiments may be used, one or more specific details may be omitted, or other methods, elements, devices, steps, etc., may be employed.

[0038] It should be understood that in this application, "connection" and "connected" can both refer to a mechanical connection or a physical connection. That is, A and B being connected or A and B being connected can mean that there are fastened components (such as screws, bolts, rivets, etc.) between A and B, or that A and B are in contact with each other and A and B are difficult to separate.

[0039] It should be noted that "multiple" in this article refers to two or more. "And / or" describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A alone, A and B simultaneously, or B alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0040] The technical solution of this application embodiment mainly takes into account that network devices such as servers cannot flexibly adjust the outgoing line direction. Therefore, in actual application scenarios, users have to select a specific type of server according to cabling requirements, or make complex cabling adjustments in the computer room. This not only increases deployment costs, but may also affect the overall aesthetics and management efficiency of the computer room.

[0041] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, this application proposes a terminal block conversion component for network devices. Without changing the original terminal block layout of the network device, the terminal block conversion component can flexibly adjust the position of the network device's terminal blocks, thereby adapting to different cabling requirements of the network device, improving the flexibility and adaptability of network device deployment, and effectively reducing the deployment cost of network devices.

[0042] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4As shown, the network device 10 is provided with a terminal block 101 for connecting external devices. The terminal block 101 can be, for example, a network cable interface, a power cable interface, a signal cable interface, etc. Generally speaking, the terminal block 101 on the network device 10 can be located on the front panel of the network device 10, or on the rear panel of the network device 10, or on one side of the network device 10.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the terminal block conversion assembly 20 in this embodiment includes a component body 201, a first terminal block 202, and a second terminal block 203. The component body 201 is configured to be detachably mounted on the network device 10. The first terminal block 202 is located at a first end of the component body 201 and is configured to connect to the terminal block 101 on the network device 10. The second terminal block 203 is located at a second end of the component body 201 and is connected to the first terminal block 202 via a connecting line 204. The second terminal block 203 is configured to connect to an external device. This embodiment allows the terminal block conversion assembly 20 to adjust the position of the terminal blocks on the network device 10 to accommodate different cabling requirements.

[0044] In one example, if network device 10 is a server, and terminal block 101 on network device 10 is a network cable interface on the server, then the first terminal block 202 on terminal block conversion assembly 20 can be a network cable plug, and the second terminal block 203 can be a network cable interface. The network cable plug on terminal block conversion assembly 20 (i.e., the first terminal block 202) can be plugged into the network cable interface (i.e., terminal block 101) on the server, and the network cable interface (i.e., the second terminal block 203) on terminal block conversion assembly 20 is connected to the network cable plug (i.e., the first terminal block 202) on terminal block conversion assembly 20 via a network cable. This allows the network cable interface on the server to be converted to a network cable interface on terminal block conversion assembly 20. In this case, the position of the network cable interface on the server can be adjusted, for example, moving the network cable interface located on the front panel of the server to the rear panel of the server using terminal block conversion assembly 20.

[0045] In another example, if network device 10 is a server, and terminal block 101 on network device 10 is the power interface on the server, then the first terminal block 202 on the terminal block conversion assembly 20 can be a power plug, and the second terminal block 203 can be a power interface. The power plug on the terminal block conversion assembly 20 (i.e., the first terminal block 202) can be plugged into the power interface on the server (i.e., terminal block 101), and the power interface on the terminal block conversion assembly 20 (i.e., the second terminal block 203) is connected to the power plug on the terminal block conversion assembly 20 (i.e., the first terminal block 202) via a power cable. This allows the power interface on the server to be converted to the power interface on the terminal block conversion assembly 20. In this case, the position of the power interface on the server can be adjusted, for example, moving the power interface located on the rear panel of the server to the front panel of the server using the terminal block conversion assembly 20.

[0046] In another example, if network device 10 is a server, and terminal block 101 on network device 10 is a signal line interface on the server, then the first terminal block 202 on terminal block conversion assembly 20 can be a signal line plug, and the second terminal block 203 can be a signal line interface. The signal line plug on terminal block conversion assembly 20 (i.e., the first terminal block 202) can be inserted into the signal line interface (i.e., terminal block 101) on the server, and the signal line interface (i.e., the second terminal block 203) on terminal block conversion assembly 20 is connected to the signal line plug (i.e., the first terminal block 202) on terminal block conversion assembly 20 via a signal line. This allows the signal line interface on the server to be converted to the signal line interface on terminal block conversion assembly 20. In this case, the position of the signal line interface on the server can be adjusted, for example, moving a signal line interface located on the rear panel of the server to the front panel of the server using terminal block conversion assembly 20.

[0047] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the terminal block conversion assembly 20 may further include a first fixing member 205, which is disposed at the second end of the assembly body 201. The second terminal block 203 is fixed to the second end of the assembly body 201 by the first fixing member 205. Optionally, the first fixing member 205 may be a fixing plate, and the second terminal block 203 may be fixed to the fixing plate. The fixing plate may be fixed to the second end of the assembly body 201 by fasteners (such as screws), thereby fixing the second terminal block 203 to the second end of the assembly body 201.

[0048] Optionally, one end of the connecting wire 204 can be connected to the second terminal 203, and the other end of the connecting wire 204 is provided with a first terminal 202 and extends to the first end of the component body 201. In this embodiment, the connecting wire 204 and the first terminal 202 can be integrated, so that one end of the connecting wire 204 is connected to the second terminal 203, and the other end can directly extend to the first end of the component body 201.

[0049] As an optional embodiment, the connecting wire 204 can be integrated with the first terminal 202 and the second terminal 203, so that one end of the connecting wire 204 with the first terminal 202 can extend to the first end of the component body 201, and one end of the connecting wire 204 with the second terminal 203 can extend to the second end of the component body 201.

[0050] As an optional embodiment, the connecting wire 204 and the second terminal 203 can be integrated, so that one end of the connecting wire 204 with the second terminal 203 can extend to the second end of the component body 201, and the other end can be connected to the first terminal 202.

[0051] As an optional embodiment, the connecting wire 204 can be separately configured from the first terminal 202 and the second terminal 203, so that one end of the connecting wire 204 is connected to the first terminal 202 and the other end of the connecting wire 204 is connected to the second terminal 203.

[0052] Reference Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the component body 201 can form a receiving cavity, and the connecting cable 204 can be disposed in the receiving cavity. When the component body 201 is installed on the network device, the opening of the receiving cavity covers the network device 10, which can effectively protect the connecting cable 204 from damage.

[0053] Optionally, if the component body 201 has a receiving cavity, the second terminal 203 can be disposed within the receiving cavity, which can also effectively protect the second terminal 203 from damage. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, an opening of a size adapted to the second terminal 203 can be opened at the second end of the component body 201. This opening is used for the line connecting the second terminal 203 to the external device to pass through. This protects the second terminal 203 from damage and does not affect the connection between the second terminal 203 and the external device.

[0054] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, at least one cable management clip 207 can be distributed on the component body 201. The connecting wire 204 passes through the at least one cable management clip 207 to connect the second terminal 203 to the first terminal 202. The technical solution of this embodiment can ensure that the connecting wire 204 is neatly arranged inside the component body 201 by the cable management clip 207, avoiding a messy situation. It can also reduce the risk of physical damage that may occur during movement, handling, etc. by fixing the connecting wire 204.

[0055] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, at least one reinforcing rib 208 can be provided in the receiving cavity formed on the component body 201. The two ends of the reinforcing rib 208 are respectively fixed to the two opposite ends of the component body 201 to enhance the structural strength of the component body 201.

[0056] Alternatively, in this embodiment, the connecting wire 204 can also be fixed by means of the reinforcing rib 208. For example, through holes can be opened on the reinforcing rib 208, and the connecting wire 204 passes through the through holes opened on multiple reinforcing ribs 208 to connect the second terminal 203 and the first terminal 202. This method can achieve the fixing and arrangement of the connecting wire 204 without the need to add an additional cable clip 207.

[0057] In some alternative embodiments, the terminal block conversion assembly 20 may further include a protective front cover 209 configured to removably cover the first terminal block 202. Specifically, as Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 The diagram shown is of the front cover 209 without the protective cover installed. Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 The diagram shows the installation of the protective front cover 209. As can be seen from the comparison, after installing the protective front cover 209, the first terminal block 202 can be effectively protected, preventing damage to the first terminal block 202 during the transportation of network equipment.

[0058] In some alternative embodiments, the terminal block conversion assembly 20 may further include a second fixing member 206 disposed at the first end of the assembly body 201, and the first terminal block 202 is fixed to the first end of the assembly body 201 by the second fixing member 206.

[0059] Optionally, such as Figures 1 to 8As shown, the second fixing member 206 can be a flexible fixing member. One end of the flexible fixing member can be fixed to the component body 201, and the other end can be wrapped around the first terminal 202 to fix the first terminal 202 to the first end of the component body 201. It should be noted that... Figures 1 to 8 The diagram only shows the second fixing member 206 as a flexible fixing member in a non-wound state. In actual use, the first terminal 202 can be wrapped by bending the flexible fixing member.

[0060] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the component body 201 is provided with a disassembly tool storage section 210, which is used to store a terminal disassembly tool 214. The terminal disassembly tool 214 is used to disconnect the connection between the first terminal 202 and the network device 10. See the attached diagram for details. Figure 4 As shown, the first terminal 202 can be a right-angled network cable plug. When it is necessary to disconnect the connection between the first terminal 202 and the network device 10, the terminal removal tool 214 can be taken out from the disassembly tool storage section 210, and then the terminal removal tool 214 can be used to disconnect the connection between the first terminal 202 and the network device 10.

[0061] In some alternative embodiments, the size of the mounting surface on the network device 10 for mounting the terminal block conversion assembly 20 can be the same as the size of the terminal block conversion assembly 20. This ensures that the network device 10 and the terminal block conversion assembly 20 are more integrated after the terminal block conversion assembly 20 is mounted on the network device 10.

[0062] In some optional embodiments, a first heat dissipation hole 102 is provided on the mounting surface of the network device 10 for mounting the terminal block conversion assembly 20, and a second heat dissipation hole 211 opened on the terminal block conversion assembly 20 matches the size and position of the first heat dissipation hole 102. This embodiment ensures that the original heat dissipation function of the network device 10 is not affected after the terminal block conversion assembly 20 is installed on it. It should be noted that only one heat dissipation hole is shown in the accompanying drawings. It can be understood that if multiple heat dissipation holes are provided on the mounting surface of the network device 10, then multiple heat dissipation holes can be correspondingly provided on the terminal block conversion assembly 20, and the size and position of the heat dissipation holes can be consistent with the heat dissipation holes on the mounting surface of the network device 10.

[0063] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figures 5 to 8As shown, the first end and the second end of the component body 201 can be arranged opposite each other. This allows the terminal block conversion component 20 to be moved from one end of the network device 10 to the other end after it is installed on the network device 10. It should be noted that in other embodiments of this application, the first end and the second end of the component body 201 can be adjacent or have any arbitrary positional relationship. This allows the terminal blocks on the network device 10 to be flexibly moved to the required position according to actual cabling needs.

[0064] In one embodiment of this application, when installing the terminal block conversion assembly 20, it can be Figure 7 The state of the terminal block conversion assembly 20 shown is flipped over to obtain Figure 5 The state of the terminal block conversion assembly 20 shown is then as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the terminal block adapter 20 is placed over the mounting surface of the network device 10 and can be secured to the network device 10 using screws or other fasteners. Then, as... Figure 2 As shown, the first terminal 202 is connected to the terminal on the network device 10, and then the protective front cover 209 is placed over the first terminal 202 and installed on the component body 201 (for example, it can be installed using thumb screws or other fasteners), thereby obtaining... Figure 3 The installation is complete as shown.

[0065] Optionally, if the terminal block conversion assembly 20 is in Figure 6 or Figure 8 As shown in the diagram with the protective front cover 209 installed, when installing the terminal block conversion assembly 20 on the network device 10, the protective front cover 209 can be removed from the assembly body 201 first, and then the installation can be carried out according to the installation process in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0066] Accordingly, when disassembling the terminal block conversion assembly 20, such as Figure 4 As shown, the protective front cover 209 can be removed from the component body 201 first, and then the terminal block removal tool 214 can be taken out from the removal tool storage section 210. The terminal block removal tool 214 is used to disconnect the connection between the first terminal block 202 and the network device 10. After that, the screws and other fasteners used between the terminal block conversion assembly 20 and the network device 10 can be loosened, and the terminal block conversion assembly 20 can be removed from the network device 10. Optionally, the terminal block removal tool 214 may not be used when disconnecting the connection between the first terminal block 202 and the network device 10.

[0067] It should be noted that the number of first terminals 202 in this embodiment can be one, two, or more. If there are two or more, the types of these two or more first terminals 202 can be the same (e.g., all can be network cable terminals) or different (e.g., some are network cable terminals, others are power cable terminals). Similarly, the number of second terminals 203 can be one, two, or more. If there are two or more, the types of these two or more second terminals 203 can be the same (e.g., all can be network cable terminals) or different (e.g., some are network cable terminals, others are power cable terminals).

[0068] In one example, the illustration is based on the premise that there are two of both the first terminal 202 and the second terminal 203. Figure 9 As shown, a first label 212 can be provided on the inner side of the component body 201 near the location of the first terminal 202 to identify the two terminals, such as labeling them "PORT 1" and "PORT 2". Meanwhile, as... Figure 10 As shown, a second label 213 can be provided on the outer side of the component body 201 near the location of the second terminal 203 to identify the two terminals, such as "PORT 1" and "PORT 2". The technical solution of this embodiment allows the user to connect the corresponding first terminal 202 and second terminal 203 by identifying the first terminal 202 and the second terminal 203, and also makes it easy to distinguish the connected terminals.

[0069] For example, regarding server network cable interfaces, different servers may have different network topologies, and these different topologies may affect the connection order of the network cable interfaces. Therefore, by setting the first label 212 and the second label 213 mentioned above, these network cable interfaces can be effectively distinguished, so as to connect the corresponding network cable interfaces and network cable plugs. In this case, it is possible that... Figure 7 and Figure 8 The two connecting cables 204 shown were changed from being arranged side-by-side to being crossed to accommodate the network topology of different servers.

[0070] It should be noted that the above embodiments use a server as an example of a network device. A server can be a server providing various services; it 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, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. In other embodiments of this application, the network device can also be other devices, such as routers or switches.

Therefore, features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features.
