Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of AI server racks, specifically to an AI server rack for teaching and training. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, AI-related courses are becoming increasingly important in the education field to cultivate professionals who can meet the needs of the times. AI servers, as key equipment for processing massive amounts of data and performing complex model calculations in teaching and training, directly impact teaching effectiveness due to their stable operation. AI server racks, as the physical carriers of AI servers, must not only provide a stable installation space for the servers in teaching and training scenarios but also ensure their stable performance during long-term operation.

[0003] Heat dissipation performance is crucial for the stable operation of AI servers in teaching and training. During teaching, servers may run under high load for extended periods, and excessively high temperatures can lead to performance degradation or even malfunctions, thereby affecting teaching progress and students' practical experience.

[0004] However, most existing server racks use a uniform cooling system, failing to adequately consider the heat dissipation differences between different height areas within the rack. This results in heat buildup in some areas that cannot dissipate in time, while other areas experience excessive heat dissipation, leading to energy waste. Therefore, the unreasonable cooling methods in existing AI server racks not only affect the operating efficiency and stability of AI servers but also increase maintenance costs, making it difficult to meet the ever-increasing high-performance operating demands of AI servers. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problem that existing AI server racks cannot effectively dissipate heat from different height areas within the rack, thus affecting the operating efficiency of AI servers, this invention provides an AI server rack for teaching and training. Through an innovative design of the heat dissipation chamber and fan layout, combined with precise temperature monitoring and intelligent control modules, it achieves differentiated and precise heat dissipation for different height areas within the rack, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency, ensuring stable server operation, and reducing energy consumption.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] An AI server rack for teaching and practical training includes:

[0008] The cabinet has a first heat dissipation chamber and a second heat dissipation chamber that communicate with the interior of the cabinet on its opposite sides.

[0009] The first heat dissipation chamber has multiple first heat dissipation fans spaced apart along the height direction, and the second heat dissipation chamber has multiple second heat dissipation fans spaced apart along the height direction at corresponding height positions. The air outlets of the first heat dissipation fans face the inside of the cabinet, and the air outlets of the second heat dissipation fans face the outside of the cabinet.

[0010] The cabinet is equipped with multiple temperature sensors spaced along its height, each sensor detecting the temperature of a different height region.

[0011] The control module is electrically connected to the temperature sensor, the first cooling fan, and the second cooling fan, and is used to control the speed of the first cooling fan and the second cooling fan at the corresponding height position according to the temperature signals detected by each temperature sensor.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the front sides of the first heat dissipation chamber and the second heat dissipation chamber are respectively provided with transparent glass cabinet doors, and the cabinet door frames are provided with dust covers; the first heat dissipation fan and the second heat dissipation fan are arranged at the cabinet door frames, and the dust covers cover the heat dissipation fans to form a dustproof isolation.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the cabinet is provided with an inclined mounting plane, and the mounting plane is provided with an embedded display screen, the display surface of the embedded display screen being parallel to the mounting plane.

[0014] Preferably, the tilt angle of the mounting plane is 15 to 30 degrees.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the mounting surface is provided with a mounting opening, a slide rail is provided below the mounting opening, a guide pulley assembly is provided inside the slide rail, and the embedded display screen is installed into the mounting surface along the slide rail via the guide pulley assembly.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cabinet is provided with a push-pull keyboard drawer below the display screen, which is used to place the keyboard.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, at least one humidity sensor is provided inside the cabinet.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, multiple humidity sensors are arranged at intervals along the height direction inside the cabinet, and the humidity sensors are installed side by side with the temperature sensors in the corresponding height areas.

[0019] The advantages of this utility model based on the above solution are as follows:

[0020] This invention features first and second heat dissipation chambers connected to the interior on opposite sides of the cabinet. First and second cooling fans with opposite vent directions are arranged at corresponding heights within these chambers, forming a directional heat dissipation channel. Simultaneously, multiple temperature sensors are spaced along the height of the cabinet to monitor the temperature in different areas in real time. The control module precisely adjusts the speed of the cooling fans at corresponding heights based on the temperature signals from each sensor. This allows for on-demand heat dissipation to address the heat generation differences in different height areas during AI server operation, avoiding energy waste and insufficient localized heat dissipation caused by traditional uniform heat dissipation methods. This not only effectively improves heat dissipation efficiency and ensures stable server operation but also reduces energy consumption and extends server lifespan. Attached Figure Description

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an AI server rack for teaching and training includes:

[0030] The cabinet 1 has a first heat dissipation chamber 2 and a second heat dissipation chamber 3 that are connected to the interior of the cabinet 1 on its opposite sides.

[0031] Multiple first cooling fans are spaced apart along the height direction in the first heat dissipation chamber 2, and multiple second cooling fans are spaced apart along the height direction at corresponding height positions in the second heat dissipation chamber 3. The air outlets of the first cooling fans face the inside of the cabinet 1, and the air outlets of the second cooling fans face the outside of the cabinet 1.

[0032] Multiple temperature sensors are spaced along the height direction inside the cabinet 1, and each temperature sensor detects the temperature of a different height area.

[0033] The control module is electrically connected to the temperature sensor, the first cooling fan, and the second cooling fan, and is used to control the speed of the first cooling fan and the second cooling fan at the corresponding height position based on the temperature signals detected by each temperature sensor.

[0034] When the AI ​​server rack is running, assuming the bottom area of ​​the rack experiences significant heat due to dense equipment, the temperature sensor in that area will detect a high-temperature signal and transmit the data to the control module. After analysis and judgment, the control module will immediately increase the speed of the first cooling fan located at the corresponding height in the first heat dissipation chamber 2, allowing more cool air to be quickly directed towards the heat-generating area. Simultaneously, it will increase the speed of the second cooling fan located at the corresponding height in the second heat dissipation chamber 3 to promptly expel the hot air that has absorbed heat from the rack. Conversely, if the temperature in the upper area of ​​the rack is lower, the temperature sensor at that height will report a low-temperature signal, and the control module will reduce the speed of the first and second cooling fans at that location to minimize unnecessary energy consumption.

[0035] As can be seen, this utility model utilizes the first and second heat dissipation chambers 3 located on both sides of the cabinet 1, and the cooling fans with opposite air outlet directions arranged at corresponding heights within the chambers, to construct a bidirectional convection heat dissipation channel, allowing air to flow directionally within the cabinet and quickly remove heat. Multiple temperature sensors distributed along the height inside the cabinet 1 monitor the temperature of each area in real time and feed the data back to the control module. Based on these temperature signals, the control module intelligently adjusts the speed of the cooling fans at corresponding heights, increasing heat dissipation in high-temperature areas and reducing fan speed in low-temperature areas. This avoids the problems of heat accumulation and overheating in some areas found in traditional uniform heat dissipation models, significantly improves heat dissipation efficiency, reduces energy consumption, creates a stable operating environment for the AI ​​server, and effectively extends the server's lifespan.

[0036] In this invention, transparent glass cabinet doors 4 are respectively provided on the front sides of the first heat dissipation chamber 2 and the second heat dissipation chamber 3, and dust covers 5 are provided on the cabinet door frames. The first and second heat dissipation fans are located on the cabinet door frames, and the dust covers 5 cover the heat dissipation fans to form a dustproof isolation. The transparent glass cabinet doors 4 can not only block external dust and debris from entering the cabinet, providing basic protection for the server equipment, but also facilitate maintenance personnel to quickly check the operation and connection status of the servers inside the cabinet without frequently opening the cabinet doors, reducing the chance of external dust entering the cabinet. The dust covers 5 on the cabinet door frames cover the first and second heat dissipation fans, forming a tight dustproof isolation structure, preventing dust from adhering to the fan blades and entering the heat dissipation chambers, and preventing the increase in fan operating resistance and the decrease in heat dissipation efficiency due to dust accumulation.

[0037] In this invention, the top of the cabinet 1 has an inclined mounting plane, on which an embedded display screen 6 is mounted. The display surface of the embedded display screen 6 is parallel to the mounting plane. Preferably, the inclination angle of the mounting plane is 15 to 30 degrees, so that the display surface of the embedded display screen 6 forms an ergonomic viewing angle. Maintenance personnel can clearly view server operating parameters, temperature data, alarm information, etc., on the display screen without excessive head bending while standing, effectively reducing operational fatigue. The embedded installation method makes the display screen flush with the top of the cabinet 1, saving space compared to traditional external display screens and avoiding the risk of collision damage caused by a protruding display screen. Furthermore, the inclined mounting plane of the display screen prevents dust and water droplets from accumulating on the screen surface, reducing the frequency of cleaning and maintenance, ensuring the display screen is always in good working condition, and providing maintenance personnel with a stable and clear information interaction interface.

[0038] In this invention, the mounting surface has a mounting opening, and below the mounting opening is a slide rail. A guide pulley assembly is installed within the slide rail. The embedded display screen 6 is mounted onto the mounting surface via the guide pulley assembly along the slide rail. The mounting opening provides an entry and exit channel for the embedded display screen 6. The sliding system formed by the lower slide rail and the guide pulley assembly creates a low-resistance movement path for the installation and removal of the display screen. During installation, maintenance personnel simply push the display screen along the guide pulley assembly into the slide rail. The pulley assembly effectively reduces friction, allowing the display screen to slide smoothly and easily into the designated position on the mounting surface for precise installation. Similarly, during removal, the sliding guide of the pulley assembly allows for quick removal of the display screen.

[0039] In this invention, the cabinet 1 has a pull-out keyboard drawer 7 below the display screen, which is used to store the keyboard. When operation is needed, the keyboard drawer can be pulled out of the cabinet 1, revealing the keyboard. This allows maintenance personnel to input commands via the keyboard to perform parameter settings, system debugging, and other operations on the server, enabling interaction with information displayed on the screen and improving operational convenience and efficiency. When the keyboard is not in use, the drawer can be pushed back into the cabinet 1, thus storing the keyboard and avoiding occupying extra space. This makes the working environment around the cabinet more tidy and orderly, achieving efficient space utilization.

[0040] In this invention, at least one humidity sensor is installed inside the cabinet 1, which can detect changes in humidity inside the cabinet in real time, providing crucial monitoring and protection for the AI ​​server's operating environment. When the ambient humidity rises abnormally, it can cause the server's electronic components to become damp, leading to faults such as short circuits and corrosion. The humidity sensor can detect this change in a timely manner and feed it back to the control module, so that maintenance personnel can take dehumidification measures in time to avoid equipment damage.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, multiple humidity sensors are spaced apart along the height direction inside the cabinet 1, and the humidity sensors are installed side by side with temperature sensors at corresponding height areas. Humidity may vary in different height areas inside the AI ​​server cabinet, which is related to factors such as the heat distribution of the server equipment and air circulation. The multiple humidity sensors spaced apart along the height direction enable real-time and accurate monitoring of humidity at different height locations inside the cabinet 1, providing a comprehensive understanding of the humidity distribution within the cabinet.

[0042] Installing the humidity sensor alongside the temperature sensor at the corresponding height allows the control module to simultaneously acquire temperature and humidity information for the same height area. Because temperature and humidity are interrelated, both affect the server's operating status. For example, high temperature and high humidity environments can easily lead to short circuits and corrosion of electronic components, while low temperature and low humidity may cause electrostatic discharge hazards. By combining temperature and humidity data for comprehensive analysis, the control module can gain a more complete and accurate understanding of the environmental conditions inside the server rack.

[0043] In this invention, temperature and humidity sensors inside the cabinet 1 collect real-time temperature and humidity data from various areas and convert these analog signals into digital signals, which are then transmitted to the control module. After analyzing and processing the data, the control module transmits the data to an embedded display screen 6 mounted on the inclined surface at the top of the cabinet 1 via an internal communication line. The display screen is pre-programmed with data parsing and visualization techniques, displaying the received temperature and humidity data in intuitive charts and numerical formats. Maintenance personnel can view the temperature and humidity values ​​at different heights within the cabinet at any time via the display screen. Temperature and humidity thresholds can also be set; when the data exceeds the normal range, the display screen issues an alarm using a prominent color or flashing, allowing maintenance personnel to promptly understand the internal environment of the cabinet and take appropriate action to ensure the stable operation of the AI ​​server.

[0044] In one optional embodiment, the control module sends control signals to a corresponding number of fan drive circuits based on different temperature thresholds. For example, when the temperature reaches 40°C, the control module sends start signals to a small number of cooling fans; as the temperature successively reaches 60, 70, 80, and 90°C, the control module gradually increases the number of cooling fans started to meet different levels of heat dissipation needs.

[0045] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0046] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
