Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer chassis auxiliary equipment technology, and in particular to an extended flange for mounting and inserting chassis. Background Technology

[0002] Rack enclosures, also known as chassis, are used in many fields. Their main functions include protecting electronic equipment, integrating logic control functions, improving the reliability and durability of equipment, and adapting to extreme environments.

[0003] Currently, the standard flanges with handles on both sides of the chassis are flush with the chassis panel. In cases involving extended connectors, the traditional flange design lacks a protective area, making the extended connectors easily damaged and resulting in a high failure rate. Furthermore, the current standard flanges have limited load-bearing capacity and cannot support heavy chassis.

[0004] To solve the above problems, an extended flange for mounting and inserting boxes is designed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an extended flange for the upper rack insertion box, which adopts two sets of extended flange bodies so that the flanges extending on the left and right sides of the chassis form a protective area, thereby effectively protecting the long connectors.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] An extended flange for mounting a chassis is characterized by comprising a flange body, with two sets of flange bodies respectively disposed on the two side walls of the chassis, the front end of the flange body extending beyond the chassis. Each flange body consists of a handle mounting plate, an extended flange portion, and a flange mounting plate. One end of the extended flange portion is fixedly connected to the flange mounting plate as a single unit, and the other end of the extended flange portion is fixedly connected to the handle mounting plate as a single unit, with the extended flange portion and the handle mounting plate arranged perpendicular to each other.

[0008] The flange mounting plate is provided with flange mounting holes, and the flange mounting plate is installed on the side wall of the chassis by screws.

[0009] The flange mounting plate is provided with auxiliary mounting holes to assist in installing the flange body onto the chassis.

[0010] The handle mounting plate is provided with handle mounting holes, and the handle is mounted on the handle mounting plate by bolts.

[0011] Furthermore, the handle mounting plate is provided with cabinet mating holes.

[0012] Furthermore, the flange body is made with a thickened flange wall, which enhances the strength of the flange body and enables it to support heavier weights.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] The extended flange designed in this utility model has two sets of flange bodies installed on both sides of the chassis, with the front end of the flange body extending beyond the chassis. This creates a protective area between the extended flange bodies on the left and right sides of the chassis, effectively protecting the long connectors and solving the problem of easy damage to long connectors in the transmission chassis. This reduces the defect rate and improves product quality.

[0015] This utility model uses a thickened flange wall to make the flange body, which gives the flange body sufficient strength to support heavier weights. In addition, the extended flange can also be used on chassis with heavy counterweights to solve the problem that ordinary flanges cannot support heavy chassis. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, two sets of flange bodies 1 are respectively installed on the two side walls of the housing 100, with the front end of the flange body 1 extending beyond the housing 100. This creates a protective area between the extended flange bodies on both sides of the housing 100, effectively protecting long connectors and solving the problem of easy damage to long connectors in the transmission housing, reducing the defect rate and improving product quality. Furthermore, a crossbeam 1001, matching the flange bodies 1, is installed on the housing 100 between the two sets of flange bodies 1.

[0024] like Figure 2 The flange body 1 consists of a handle mounting plate 13, a flange extension 12, and a flange mounting plate 11. One end of the flange extension 12 is fixedly connected to the flange mounting plate 11 as a whole, and the other end of the flange extension 12 is fixedly connected to the handle mounting plate 13 as a whole, with the flange extension 12 and the handle mounting plate 13 arranged perpendicularly to each other. The flange mounting plate 11 has flange mounting holes 111, allowing it to be mounted on the side wall of the housing 100 using screws. Auxiliary mounting holes 112 are also provided on the flange mounting plate 11 to assist in mounting the flange body 1 onto the housing 100.

[0025] The handle mounting plate 13 is provided with handle mounting holes 131, so that the handle 101 can be installed on the handle mounting plate 13 by bolts, and the handle mounting plate 13 is provided with cabinet mating holes 132.

[0026] Furthermore, the flange body 1 is made with a thickened flange wall, which enhances the strength of the flange body and can support heavier weights. This extended flange can also be used on chassis with heavy counterweights to solve the problem that ordinary flanges cannot support heavy chassis.
