[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN110113908B, which discloses a cloud data storage device. The device includes a cabinet with a cavity. A drawer cabinet is slidably installed within the cavity. A support plate is slidably installed on a guide rail. A clamping plate is located on the upper side of the support plate. A memory device capable of directly storing information data is fixedly clamped between the clamping plate and the support plate. After the memory device is placed and clamped within the clamping plate and support plate, pushing it to the left retracts it into the cavity. Rotating a rotating rod engages a stop with the support plate, preventing the support plate and clamping plate from sliding freely back and forth within the guide rail. This device is fixed relative to the drawer cabinet, allowing for unified data communication and management of the memory. The device's high-voltage and low-voltage areas are separated, facilitating maintenance and increasing safety. The device's power outlets can be completely fixed to the cabinet, protecting the normal access and use of data.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors have discovered the following drawbacks: During the data storage and retrieval process, the circuit boards and storage disks inside the storage device generate a large amount of heat. If the heat cannot be dissipated in time, it will lead to a decrease in device performance or even damage to the device, affecting the security and stability of the data. Utility Model Content

[0029] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0030] This application discloses a storage cabinet for cloud data storage.

The sealing plug 307 is movably sleeved inside the storage cabinet body 1. The sealing plate 308 is fixedly connected to the side of the sealing plug 307 away from the limiting plate 306. The sealing plate 308 is fixedly installed on one side of the storage cabinet body 1.

[0033] The cooling assembly 3 also includes a positioning partition 309, a heat-conducting plate 310, a heat-conducting plate fixing plate 311, a coolant circulation hole 312, and a storage disk body 313. The positioning partition 309 is fixedly installed inside the storage cabinet body 1. A coolant circulation hole 312 is provided at the bottom of the positioning partition 309. Heat-conducting plates 310 are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the positioning partition 309. A heat-conducting plate fixing plate 311 is fixedly connected to the side of the heat-conducting plate 310 closest to the inner wall of the storage cabinet body 1. A storage disk body 313 is fixedly sleeved on one side of the positioning partition 309. The storage disk body 313 is electrically connected to the circuit board inside the storage cabinet body 1.

[0034] The heat-conducting plates 310 are distributed in an array with equal spacing along the height direction of the storage cabinet body 1, and each heat-conducting plate 310 has a wave-shaped heat dissipation fin on its surface. The heat-conducting plate fixing plate 311 is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the storage cabinet body 1 by a thermally conductive silicone layer.

[0035] The circulating pump 4 is located in the interlayer space between the coolant storage tank 301 and the data reading cabinet 2. The input end of the circulating pump 4 is connected to the outlet pipe 303 through a flexible pipeline, and the output end is connected to the inlet pipe 302 and the external coolant supply system through a three-way connector.

[0036] The sealing plug 307 is made of elastic rubber material, and its outer surface is provided with annular sealing protrusions that cooperate with the inner wall of the storage cabinet body 1. The outer side of the sealing plate 308 is provided with a rotating handle, which is detachably fixed to the side wall of the storage cabinet body 1 by means of threaded connection.

[0037] The storage disk body 313 adopts a drawer-type pluggable structure. Its bottom is equipped with a slide rail mechanism that cooperates with the positioning partition 309. The front panel of the storage disk body 313 is equipped with a status indicator light and an emergency eject button.

[0038] The limiting plate 306 has honeycomb-shaped flow guide holes, the diameter of which decreases gradually along the flow direction of the coolant, and the liquid-facing surface of the limiting plate 306 is coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0039] Further explanation is needed:

[0040] The coolant storage tank 301 is installed on one side of the data reading cabinet 2. Its interior is divided into two independent cavities by a partition. The inlet pipe 302 and the outlet pipe 303 are connected to different independent cavities respectively. The inlet pipe 302 is connected to the internal cavity of the storage cabinet body 1 through the inlet hole 304 and the outlet pipe 303 is connected to the internal cavity of the storage cabinet body 1 through the outlet hole 305. This structure allows the coolant to circulate between the storage cabinet body 1 and the coolant storage tank 301, carrying away the heat generated inside the storage cabinet, effectively reducing the internal temperature of the storage cabinet, and ensuring the stability of the data storage environment.

[0041] The positioning partition 309 is installed inside the storage cabinet body 1. It has a coolant circulation hole 312 at its bottom to facilitate coolant flow. The heat-conducting plates 310 on the left and right sides are evenly distributed along the height direction of the storage cabinet body 1 and have wavy heat dissipation fins on their surfaces to increase the heat dissipation area. The heat-conducting plates 310 are tightly connected to the inner wall of the storage cabinet body 1 through the heat-conducting plate fixing plate 311, which can quickly conduct the heat generated by the positioning partition 309 and the storage tray body 313 to the cabinet wall, further improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The limiting plate 306 divides the inside of the storage cabinet body 1 into a connected cavity. The honeycomb-shaped flow guide hole on it helps the coolant flow evenly, and the anti-corrosion coating on the liquid-facing surface can protect the limiting plate 306. The sealing plug 307 and the sealing plate 308 ensure the sealing of the inside of the storage cabinet to prevent coolant leakage, while facilitating the maintenance and repair of internal components.

[0042] The implementation principle of a cloud data storage cabinet in this application embodiment is as follows:

[0043] First, coolant is injected into coolant storage tank 301 through inlet pipe 302. Since the coolant storage tank 301 is divided into two independent cavities by a partition, the injected coolant will be stored in one of the cavities for later use, in preparation for subsequent cooling cycles.

[0044] Secondly, when the storage cabinet starts working and generates heat that needs to be cooled, the circulation pump 4 starts. The circulation pump 4 is located in the interlayer space between the coolant storage tank 301 and the data reading cabinet 2. Its input end is connected to the outlet pipe 303 through a flexible pipe. After starting, the circulation pump 4 draws out the coolant from another cavity of the coolant storage tank 301 and puts it into the circulation system.

[0045] Next, the extracted coolant flows through the output end of the circulation pump 4 and a portion of it into the inlet pipe 302 via the tee connector. Then, the coolant flows along the inlet pipe 302 and enters the cavity inside the storage cabinet body 1 through the inlet hole 304. The limiting plate 306 divides the inside of the storage cabinet body 1 into two interconnected cavities on the left and right sides. The limiting plate 306 is provided with honeycomb-shaped guide holes. During the flow process, the coolant passes through these guide holes to achieve uniform distribution and initially cools the heat-generating components inside the storage cabinet body 1.

[0046] Next, the heat generated by the storage disk body 313 during operation is transferred to the positioning partition 309. The heat-conducting plates 310 fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the positioning partition 309 are distributed in an equally spaced array along the height direction of the storage cabinet body 1 and have wavy heat dissipation fins on their surface. They can efficiently absorb the heat from the positioning partition 309 and conduct the heat to the inner wall of the storage cabinet body 1 through the heat-conducting plate fixing plate 311 and the heat-conducting silicone layer. At the same time, the coolant also absorbs the heat dissipated to the surroundings by the storage disk body 313 and other components during the flow of the coolant in the storage cabinet body 1.

[0047] Finally, the coolant that has absorbed heat flows into the outlet pipe 303 through the outlet hole 305 and returns to the coolant storage tank 301 to complete one cycle. After a brief heat exchange and temperature balance in the storage tank, the coolant re-enters the circulation pump 4 to start the next cycle, repeating the process continuously to cool the cloud data storage components in the storage cabinet body 1 and ensure the stable operation of the storage cabinet.

[0048] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
