Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rack server technology, and in particular to a rack server installation structure. Background Technology

[0002] Rack servers are a type of server that uses a standard rack mounting architecture. They are named for their rack-like shape and ability to be installed in standard racks. In scenarios such as data centers and enterprise IT systems, they play a core computing and service support role. Through standardized design and high-density deployment, rack servers have become the "computing power cornerstone" of modern data centers. Their core role is to centrally provide computing resources, support critical business systems, ensure service availability, and adapt to the needs of different scenarios through flexible expansion.

[0003] An existing server installation device and rack-mounted server (announcement number: CN115509310B) has at least the following drawbacks: When installing the server, it is necessary to remove the baffles on both sides of the mounting bracket, which makes the installation process complicated. This not only consumes a lot of time but also increases labor costs and reduces installation efficiency. At the same time, it restricts the operating space to the inside of the rack, making it inconvenient for staff to operate in the confined space and making it difficult to flexibly adjust the server position, which increases the difficulty of installation. Furthermore, repeated removal of the baffles can easily lead to component damage, further affecting the installation and maintenance work. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a rack-mount server installation structure.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A rack-mount server mounting structure includes a dual-rack and a server mounting bracket. The dual-rack has several sliding grooves extending through its inner bottom and top. The server mounting bracket is movably mounted inside the dual-rack. The server mounting bracket includes a base frame, rear sliding brackets, and cable management racks. The base frame is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the server mounting bracket. Several rear sliding brackets are fixedly connected to the base frame and the top of the server mounting bracket, and are slidably connected through the sliding grooves. Several cable management racks are bolted to the back of the server mounting bracket. The server mounting bracket is slidably connected inside the dual-rack via the rear sliding brackets.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the double-opening frame is provided with a number of support bolts inside, and the number of support bolts are threadedly connected to the crossbar on one side of the bottom frame. The bottom of the double-opening frame is provided with a number of storage slots, and the bottom end of the support bolt is integrally connected to a support pad, which is located inside the storage slot.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the server mounting rack is provided with a built-in filter core at the top. The built-in filter core is fixedly connected to the top of the double-opening rack by bolt embedding. A cooling fan is fixedly connected to the top of the outer side of the double-opening rack, and the cooling fan is located on top of the built-in filter core.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, several ventilation slots are provided through both sides of the inner wall of the double-opening frame, and external filter elements are provided on the outer side of the ventilation slots. Several external filter elements are connected to both sides of the outer wall of the double-opening frame by bolt fitting. Door frames are fixedly connected to both the top and bottom ends of the double-opening frame.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a first sliding groove and a second sliding groove are respectively opened through a set of diagonal sections of the door frame. A front magnetic door and a rear magnetic door are provided at the front and rear openings of the double-opening frame. The structure of the rear magnetic door is the same as that of the front magnetic door. A rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the top and bottom ends of one side of the front magnetic door.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the rotating shaft of the front magnetic door is slidably connected in the first slide groove, and the rotating shaft of the rear magnetic door is slidably connected in the second slide groove. The front magnetic door and the rear magnetic door are both magnetically fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the double-opening frame, and the rear magnetic door is located on one side of several cable management racks.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The sliding grooves that run through the inner bottom and top of the dual-panel rack provide a stable sliding track for the server mounting rack. Workers can push and pull the server mounting rack, allowing it to slide along the rear slide rail within the grooves. This enables the server mounting rack to slide back and forth, facilitating adjustments for maintenance and testing needs. When installing servers, pulling the server mounting rack moves it out of the front opening of the dual-panel rack, allowing several servers to be sequentially fixed onto the L-shaped adjustable brackets. After installation, the server mounting rack is pushed into the dual-panel chassis while continuing to push backward, moving the rear slide rail to the end of the sliding groove. This moves the cable management rack out of the rear opening of the dual-panel rack, allowing workers to easily organize and secure the server cables, ensuring neat and orderly cabling. The entire installation structure works seamlessly together, enabling stable server installation and convenient operation within the rack.

[0014] 2. When the staff opens the front magnetic door, the rotating shaft rotates 270°, and the front magnetic door follows the rotation, so that the outer wall of the front magnetic door fits against the outer side of the double rack. The cooperation between the sliding groove and the rotating shaft ensures smooth opening and closing of the door. The rear magnetic door opens in the same way as the front magnetic door. After rotating 270°, the rear magnetic door fits against the other side of the double rack, making it convenient for staff to inspect and manage the servers and lines. The magnetic door design is easy to operate and can be quickly opened and closed without additional locks, improving maintenance efficiency. The door frame has a folding storage function for the front and rear magnetic doors, preventing the doors from occupying aisle space and affecting passage when opened. It also reduces the collision between the doors and people passing by, reducing the probability of door damage, and can accurately position the closed position. The front opening of the double rack is fully open, making it convenient for staff to operate and maintain the servers inside the double rack. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Reference Figures 1-6 A rack-mount server mounting structure includes a dual-rack 1 and a server mounting bracket 2. The dual-rack 1 has several sliding grooves 101 extending through its inner bottom and top. The server mounting bracket 2 is movably installed inside the dual-rack 1. The server mounting bracket 2 includes a bottom frame 201, a rear slide 202, and a cable management bracket 203. The bottom frame 201 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the server mounting bracket 2. Several rear slides 202 are fixedly connected to the bottom frame 201 and the top of the server mounting bracket 2. The rear slides 202 are slidably connected through the sliding grooves 101. Several cable management brackets 203 are fixedly connected to the back of the server mounting bracket 2 by bolts. The server mounting bracket 2 is slidably connected inside the dual-rack 1 through the rear slides 202.

[0026] In use, the sliding groove 101, which runs through the inner bottom and top of the dual-rack 1, provides a stable sliding track for the server mounting rack 2. Workers push and pull the server mounting rack 2, allowing it to slide within the sliding groove 101 along the rear slide 202. This enables the server mounting rack 2 to slide forward and backward, facilitating adjustments for maintenance and testing. When installing servers, pulling the server mounting rack 2 moves it out of the front opening of the dual-rack 1, allowing several servers to be sequentially fixed onto the L-shaped adjustable bracket of the server mounting rack 2. After installation, the server mounting rack 2 is pushed into the dual-rack chassis, and continued to be pushed backward. The rear slide 202 moves to the end of the sliding groove 101, causing the cable management rack 203 of the server mounting rack 2 to move out of the rear opening of the dual-rack 1. This facilitates the workers to secure and organize the server cables, ensuring neat and orderly cabling. The entire installation structure works seamlessly together, enabling stable server installation and convenient operation within the rack. This setup expands the installation range of the server mounting rack 2, preventing the installation space from being confined within the dual-rack 1 and affecting staff operations. At the same time, removing it from the dual-rack 1 provides good lighting for installation and testing, facilitating multiple operations on the server by staff. Unlike the comparison document, there is no need to disassemble the baffle for server installation. Through the sliding connection between the rear slide 202 and the sliding groove 101, the server mounting rack 2, along with the server, can be directly pushed into the dual-rack 1, greatly simplifying the installation process, saving installation time and labor costs, and improving installation efficiency.

[0027] In this embodiment, the double-opening frame 1 is provided with a number of support bolts 3 inside. The support bolts 3 are threadedly connected to the crossbar on one side of the bottom frame 201. The bottom of the double-opening frame 1 is provided with a number of storage slots 102. The bottom of the support bolts 3 is integrally connected to a support pad 301, which is located inside the storage slot 102.

[0028] In use, the support bolt 3 is threaded onto the crossbar of the bottom frame 201. The height can be adjusted by rotating the support bolt 3. After the server mounting bracket 2 slides into place in the double rack 1, the support bolt 3 is unscrewed so that the support pad 301 falls into the storage groove 102. The support bolt 3 supports the server mounting bracket 2, enhancing its stability. If the server mounting bracket 2 is moved out of the front opening of the double rack 1, the staff can rotate the support bolt 3 in advance to retract the support pad 301 into the bottom groove of the bottom frame 201. After the server mounting bracket 2 is moved out of the double rack 1, the support bolt 3 is rotated again to lower it, so that the support pad 301 rests on the ground to provide stable support for the server mounting bracket 2. This facilitates the disassembly and installation of the server by the staff, which not only prevents the server from shaking in the rack but also ensures the stability of the moved server mounting bracket 2.

[0029] In this embodiment, the server mounting rack 2 is provided with a built-in filter core 4 at the top. The built-in filter core 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the double-opening rack 1 by bolt embedding. A cooling fan 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer side of the double-opening rack 1. The cooling fan 5 is located on top of the built-in filter core 4.

[0030] When in use, the cooling fan 5 on the top outer side of the dual-rack 1 is turned on, generating suction to draw in outside air. When the air enters the rack, it must first pass through the built-in filter 4 fixed to the top inner side of the dual-rack 1. The built-in filter 4 is connected by bolts, and its filter structure can effectively intercept dust, hair, particles and other impurities in the air. The filtered clean air enters the rack, flows through the server on the server mounting rack 2, and carries away the heat generated by the server operation. The hot air is then discharged through the ventilation slots 103 on both sides of the dual-rack 1, forming a heat dissipation cycle.

[0031] In this embodiment, several ventilation slots 103 are provided through both sides of the inner wall of the double-opening frame 1. External filter elements 6 are provided on the outside of the ventilation slots 103. Several external filter elements 6 are connected to both sides of the outer wall of the double-opening frame 1 by bolt fitting. Door frames 7 are fixedly connected to both the top and bottom ends of the double-opening frame 1.

[0032] In use, the ventilation slots 103 on both sides of the inner wall of the double-opening rack 1 provide a lateral ventilation path for the inside of the double-opening rack 1. The hot air inside the double-opening rack 1 is discharged through the ventilation slots 103 and then filtered a second time by the external filter element 6. The easily removable external filter element 6 reduces the difficulty of maintenance. Regular cleaning or replacement of the filter element can continuously ensure good heat dissipation and dust prevention.

[0033] In this embodiment, a first sliding groove 701 and a second sliding groove 702 are respectively opened through a set of diagonal corners of the door frame 7. The front magnetic door 8 and the rear magnetic door 9 are provided at the front and rear openings of the double-opening frame 1. The rear magnetic door 9 has the same structure as the front magnetic door 8. The top and bottom ends of one side of the front magnetic door 8 are fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 801.

[0034] When in use, the staff opens the front magnetic door 8, and the rotating shaft 801 rotates 270°. The front magnetic door 8 rotates with the rotating shaft 801, so that the outer wall of the front magnetic door 8 fits against the outer side of the double-opening rack 1. The cooperation between the sliding groove and the rotating shaft 801 makes the door open and close smoothly. The door frame 7 has a folding storage function for the front magnetic door 8 and the rear magnetic door 9, which avoids occupying the passage space after the door is opened and affecting the passage passage. At the same time, it reduces the collision between the door and the passage personnel, reduces the probability of door damage, and can accurately position the closed position. The front opening of the double-opening rack 1 is fully opened, which makes it convenient for the staff to operate and maintain the server inside the double-opening rack 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 801 of the front magnetic door 8 is slidably connected in the first slide groove 701, and the rotating shaft 801 of the rear magnetic door 9 is slidably connected in the second slide groove 702. The front magnetic door 8 and the rear magnetic door 9 are both magnetically fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the double-opening frame 1, and the rear magnetic door 9 is located on one side of several cable management racks 203.

[0036] When in use, the rear magnetic door 9 opens in the same way as the front magnetic door 8. After rotating 270°, the rear magnetic door 9 fits against the other side of the double rack 1, making it convenient for staff to inspect and manage the server and lines. The magnetic door design is easy to operate and can be quickly opened and closed without additional locks, improving maintenance efficiency. The enclosed rack space helps maintain stable internal temperature, reduces external environmental interference, and prevents dust from entering, protecting the server hardware.

[0037] As can be seen from the above description, the above embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects: In the server installation process, the sliding grooves 101 on the inner bottom and inner top of the double-opening rack 1 provide a stable track for the server mounting frame 2. When the staff pushes and pulls the server mounting frame 2, the rear slide 202 slides in the sliding grooves 101, allowing the server mounting frame 2 to move back and forth. When installing the server, the mounting frame is pulled out of the front opening of the double-opening rack 1, and the server is fixedly connected to the L-shaped adjustable bracket with bolts. After the installation is completed, the server mounting frame 2 is pushed back to its original position, so that the cable management rack 203 moves out of the rear opening, which facilitates cable management and avoids the inconvenience of operating in a narrow rack, greatly simplifying the installation process. The support bolts 3 and the storage grooves 102 work together to ensure the stability of the server mounting frame 2. After the mounting bracket is in place within the dual-rack 1, unscrew the support bolt 3 to allow the support pad 301 to fall into the storage slot 102, supporting the mounting bracket. If the mounting bracket needs to be removed from the rack, retract the support pad 301 beforehand, and then adjust the support bolt 3 to ensure the support pad 301 touches the ground after removal, preventing the server from shaking and providing stable support for installation and disassembly. Regarding heat dissipation and dust prevention, after the cooling fan 5 on the top outer side of the dual-rack 1 is activated, air passes through the built-in filter 4 to remove dust and other impurities before entering the dual-rack 1 to carry away the heat generated by the server's operation. The hot air is then exhausted through the ventilation slots 103 on both sides, forming a heat dissipation cycle. Simultaneously, the external filter 6 on the outside of the ventilation slots 103 performs secondary filtration of the exhausted hot air. Regularly cleaning or replacing the internal and external filters 6 ensures consistently good heat dissipation and dust prevention. During routine maintenance, the first slide groove 701 and the second slide groove 702 on the door frame 7 cooperate with the rotating shaft 801. When the staff opens the front magnetic door 8, the rotating shaft 801 rotates 270°, causing the front magnetic door 8 to fold and fit snugly against the outside of the double-opening rack 1, without occupying aisle space and reducing the risk of door panel damage. When closed, the magnetic attraction makes it accurately positioned and tightly fitted, which can reduce external environmental interference, maintain stable temperature inside the double-opening rack 1, and facilitate staff to quickly open and close the rack for testing and management of servers and lines.

[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
