Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat dissipation devices, and in particular to a modular computer room heat dissipation device. Background Technology

[0002] Modular data center cooling systems are a combination of devices that break down the cooling system into independent standardized functional modules such as cooling, ventilation, and control. Each module is flexibly spliced ​​together through a unified interface. It can be deployed, expanded, or replaced as needed according to the heat load of the data center. It has advantages such as flexible deployment, convenient maintenance, and redundancy and reliability. It can accurately match the heat dissipation needs of the data center and reduce energy consumption. At the same time, through standardized design, it enables each module to work together, making it one of the mainstream solutions for efficient heat dissipation in data centers.

[0003] In existing equipment, a Chinese utility model with announcement number CN222277036U discloses a high-efficiency modular cooling fan unit and a high-efficiency modular cooling fan assembly. It expands the heat dissipation components by using a snap-fit ​​connection between two fans. However, in actual use, it was found that the main effect of modularization is to quickly position and install the device to correspond to different heat-generating locations in the server rack. However, the device cannot be quickly fixed in the gaps or openings of the server rack. The general snap-fit ​​method cannot effectively overcome the continuous lateral vibration of the server rack and fans, which may cause them to fall off. Utility Model Content

Two locking blocks 43 are slidably connected on the rotating rod 45. The locking blocks 43 and the hooks 44 are fixedly connected. A support spring 46 is provided between the two locking blocks 43. A rotating block 42 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the locking blocks 43. A toggle block 41 is installed on the side of the rotating block 42. The toggle block 41 is slidably connected in the mating groove 12 on the side of the connecting base 11. The rotating block 42 is rectangular.

[0032] The locking assembly 5 includes a torsion groove 51, a connecting rod 52, and a locking block 53. The connecting rod 52 is fixed to the end face of the corresponding locking block 43 on the expansion module 2. A through hole is formed on the connecting seat 11 in the direction of the connecting rod 52. A latch 47 is installed on the rotating rod 45 at the position corresponding to the through hole. A locking block 53 is formed at the top of the connecting rod 52 corresponding to the through hole. A locking groove 54 for engaging the locking block 53 is formed inside the latch 47.

[0033] Preferably, the rotating block 42 has a square cross-section when viewed from above, and the diagonal dimension of the rotating block 42 after rotation is larger than the short side of the card block 43.

[0034] Preferably, when the actuating block 41 is not rotated, it is flush with the end face of the locking block 43, and when the actuating block 41 is rotated, the angle between it and the end face of the locking block 43 is 45°.

[0035] Preferably, the thickness of the actuating block 41 is greater than the thickness of the rotating block 42, the actuating block 41 has a circular groove 411 formed on the end face of the corresponding locking block 43, and the locking block 43 has a rounded corner 431 formed on the end face of the corresponding actuating block 41.

[0036] Preferably, the expansion module 2 includes a mounting bracket 21, with heat dissipation holes 22 extending through the upper and lower end faces of the mounting bracket 21, and mounting holes 23 extending through the front and rear end faces of the mounting bracket 21. The heat dissipation component 3 is connected to the mounting bracket 21 by screws.

[0037] Preferably, a rotating rod 45 and a locking buckle 47 are installed on the end face of the fixing frame 21 away from the connecting rod 52, and the connecting rod 52 on the second fixing frame 21 is connected to the locking buckle 47 on the first fixing frame 21.

[0038] Preferably, the locking block 53 is a sphere, the latch 47 is a ball groove, the diameter of the latch 47 is smaller than the diameter of the locking block 53, and both the locking block 53 and the latch 47 are made of aluminum alloy.

[0039] Working principle: Select the appropriate heat sink 3 according to the installation location and the heat output of the cabinet. You can choose a DC fan or a centrifugal fan. Fix it to the mounting bracket 21 with screws. Then, find a suitable gap or heat dissipation vent of the cabinet according to the installation location.

[0040] In the initial state of the toggle block 41, the two toggle blocks 41 are engaged, causing the toggle blocks 41 to compress the support spring 46. After finding the appropriate position, the toggle blocks 41 are released, and the two locking blocks 43 and the locking hook 44 expand under the support of the support spring 46, thereby locking in the gap or heat dissipation vent. After the position is appropriate, the elastic support of the rotating rod 45 is used for pre-fixing.

[0041] Then, according to the required number of heat sinks 3, connect an appropriate number of fixing brackets 21, insert the connecting rods 52 on the fixing brackets 21 into the holes on the connecting seat 11. After insertion, move the actuating block 41 so that the actuating block 41 drives the rotating block 42 and the rotating rod 45 to rotate. When the rotating block 42 and the rotating rod 45 rotate, the diagonal point of the rotating block 42 will be stuck in the groove inside the connecting seat 11. At the same time, the locking groove 54 on the rotating rod 45 gradually squeezes and locks the locking block 53. After the actuating block 41 and the rotating block 42 rotate 45°, the round groove 411 is locked on the rounded corner 431 on the locking block 43, so that the actuating block 41, the rotating block 42, and the locking block 43 are fixed in position to each other, while ensuring that the locking buckle 47 is fixed to the locking block 53, thereby achieving rapid fixing and overcoming the continuous lateral vibration inside the heat sink 3 or the cabinet.
