Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cable management racks, and in particular relates to a smart identification and quick-installation cable management rack for data centers. Background Technology

[0002] A data center cable management rack is a specialized device used to organize and manage various cables (such as fiber optic cables, network cables, and power cables) within a data center cabinet. Its core function is to achieve orderly cable arrangement, fixed protection, and convenient management through structured design, making it a key component of the data center infrastructure cabling system.

[0003] Currently, cable management in data centers primarily relies on traditional cable management racks and labeling techniques. The mainstream labeling method is still manual labeling, using paper or plastic labels to record information such as device details and port numbers at both ends of the cable. However, this method has the following drawbacks:

[0004] 1. Dust and equipment vibration in the data center cause the labels to fade and fall off easily, with an average lifespan of less than 6 months, requiring regular manual replacement;

[0005] 2. When the cable route is adjusted due to equipment relocation, fault replacement, etc., it is necessary to manually relabel the cable and synchronize it to the management system. In actual operation, there are cases where the cable label does not match the actual cable, which increases the error rate of fault location during troubleshooting. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing a smart, quick-install cable management rack for data centers. This rack uses connectable cable management blocks to neatly organize cables and is equipped with readable and writable RFID tags, replacing traditional paper or plastic tags and preventing fading and peeling caused by dust and vibration. Furthermore, the RFID tags can be updated directly via a reader, eliminating the need for manual relabeling and resolving the issue of discrepancies between the labels and the actual cable arrangement after adjustments.

[0007] In view of this, the present invention provides a smart identification and quick-installation cable management rack for data centers, comprising:

[0008] Multiple cable management blocks are connected to each other by connecting components to form a cable management frame. Each cable management block includes a bottom block and a top block. The bottom block and the top block are respectively provided with slots for accommodating cables at their opposite ends. The top block and the bottom block are connected by a fixing component.

[0009] An RFID tag is placed on the top of the top block and is a readable and writable tag. After the RFID tag is activated by a reader in conjunction with electromagnetic waves, its stored content can be read and rewritten.

[0010] In this technical solution, cables are neatly stored by splicable cable management blocks, and readable and writable RFID tags replace traditional paper or plastic tags, avoiding the problem of tags fading and falling off due to dust and vibration. At the same time, the RFID tags can be updated directly through the reader, without the need for manual relabeling, solving the problem of discrepancies between the labels and the actual situation after cable adjustment.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting assembly includes two first permanent magnets, which are respectively embedded in the two ends of the base block. The outer end of the first permanent magnet is coplanar with the end face of the base block, and the outer ends of the two first permanent magnets and the second permanent magnet have opposite magnetic poles.

[0012] In this technical solution, a first permanent magnet with opposite magnetic poles is used to enable the cable management blocks to be quickly attracted and spliced, simplifying the installation and adjustment process, facilitating flexible reorganization according to changes in cable paths, reducing manual operation costs, and alleviating the problem of inconvenient adjustment of traditional cable management racks.

[0013] Furthermore, symmetrical insertion holes are provided on both sides of the first permanent magnet at one end of the base block, and symmetrical insertion rods are fixedly connected on both sides of the first permanent magnet at the other end of the base block. The two insertion rods correspond to the positions of the two insertion holes and are adapted in size.

[0014] In this technical solution, the combination of the socket and the plug provides positioning guidance for the connection of the cable management block, enhances the stability of the permanent magnet connection, prevents loosening and displacement after splicing, ensures the stability of the cable management frame structure, ensures neat cable storage, and reduces the risk of misalignment of labels due to unstable connection.

[0015] Furthermore, the fixing component includes:

[0016] Four inserts are fixedly connected to the four corners of the top block near the bottom block. Each of the four inserts has a connecting hole on its outer side. A first spring is fixedly connected in each of the four connecting holes, and a limit post is slidably connected in each of the four connecting holes. The other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the limit post.

[0017] Four rectangular holes are provided at the top four corners of the base block, and the four rectangular holes correspond to the positions of the four insertion posts and are adapted in size.

[0018] Four limiting holes are provided on both sides of the bottom block away from the two ends of the connecting component, and the four limiting holes are respectively connected to the inner cavities of the four rectangular holes.

[0019] In this technical solution, the top block and bottom block can be quickly engaged and disassembled through the cooperation of the insert, the first spring and the limiting post. This makes disassembly and assembly convenient, facilitates the placement and maintenance of cables, and avoids the problem of cumbersome fixing of traditional structures that affects operational efficiency.

[0020] Furthermore, the limiting post and the limiting hole are positioned and matched in size, and the end of the limiting post away from the first spring is provided with a semi-circular protrusion.

[0021] In this technical solution, the limiting post and the limiting hole are matched and the end is a semi-circular protrusion, which not only ensures the connection between the top block and the bottom block, but also makes the insertion and removal process smoother, reduces component wear, and improves the service life of the cable management block.

[0022] Furthermore, a second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of each of the four rectangular holes.

[0023] In this technical solution, the second spring inside the rectangular hole provides elastic force assistance when disassembling the top block, making it easier to separate the top block from the bottom block, further improving disassembly and assembly efficiency, and facilitating quick cable adjustment.

[0024] Furthermore, a storage slot is provided at the center of the top of the top block, the RFID tag is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage slot, an inner edge is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage slot, a cover plate is provided above the inner edge, a fixing bolt is passed through the cover plate, and the fixing bolt is threaded to the surface of the inner edge.

[0025] In this technical solution, the RFID tags can be sealed and protected by the storage slot and cover plate, reducing the impact of dust and vibration on the tags, extending their service life, solving the problem of easy damage of traditional tags, and facilitating tag replacement and maintenance.

[0026] Furthermore, the top of the RFID tag abuts against the cover plate.

[0027] In this technical solution, the distance between the RFID tag and the cover plate is reduced, ensuring that the reader can read the information of the RFID tag even through the cover plate.

[0028] Furthermore, a second permanent magnet is embedded at the bottom end of the base block, and the bottom end face of the second permanent magnet is coplanar with the bottom end face of the base block.

[0029] In this technical solution, the second permanent magnet at the bottom of the base block facilitates the quick adsorption and fixation of the cable management rack onto the metal surface, making the installation flexible and stable, adapting to the cable management needs of different scenarios in the data center, and improving installation efficiency.

[0030] Furthermore, rubber rings are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the slots of both the bottom block and the top block, and the rubber rings are elastic.

[0031] In this technical solution, the elastic rubber ring on the inner wall of the slot can buffer the contact between the cable and the cable management block, protect the cable sheath, and at the same time enhance the friction between the cable and the slot, prevent the cable from sliding and misaligning, and maintain the correspondence between the label and the cable.

[0032] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0033] 1. This utility model achieves neat cable storage through splicable cable management blocks, and with the addition of readable and writable RFID tags, it replaces traditional paper or plastic tags, avoiding the problem of tags fading and falling off due to dust and vibration; at the same time, the RFID tags can be updated directly through the reader, without the need for manual relabeling, thus solving the problem of discrepancies between the markings and the actual situation after cable adjustment.

[0034] 2. This utility model uses a first permanent magnet with opposite magnetic poles, which enables the cable management blocks to be quickly attracted and spliced, simplifying the installation and adjustment process, facilitating flexible reorganization according to changes in cable paths, reducing manual operation costs, and alleviating the problem of inconvenient adjustment of traditional cable management racks.

[0047] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a smart identification and quick-installation cable management rack for data centers, comprising:

[0048] Multiple cable management blocks are connected to each other by connecting components to form a cable management frame. Each cable management block includes a bottom block 11 and a top block 1. The bottom block 11 and the top block 1 are respectively provided with a slot 12 for accommodating cables. The top block 1 and the bottom block 11 are connected by a fixing component.

[0049] RFID tag 44 is disposed on the top of top block 1 and is a readable and writable tag. After the RFID tag 44 is activated by a reader in conjunction with electromagnetic waves, its stored content can be read and rewritten.

[0050] A cable management frame is formed by splicing multiple cable management blocks through connecting components. The slots 12 of the bottom block 11 and the top block 1 cooperate to securely accommodate cables and prevent them from becoming messy and shifting. The top block 1 and the bottom block 11 are connected by a fixing component, which facilitates quick assembly and disassembly for cable adjustment. Readable and writable RFID tags 44 replace traditional paper or plastic tags. The reader places the RFID tag 44 on the tag, and then the reader's antenna emits radio waves of a specific frequency to form an electromagnetic field. The antenna on the RFID tag 44 receives the electromagnetic wave energy and activates the internal chip circuit. Once activated, the tag chip modulates the stored cable information (such as ID, production date, category, etc.) by changing the antenna's reflection characteristics of electromagnetic waves, scattering it back to the reader in the form of electromagnetic waves. After receiving the signal, the reader amplifies, filters, and demodulates it through its internal module, restoring it to a digital signal and transmitting it to a computer or management system for rapid identification of the cable information. On the one hand, it can resist the influence of dust and vibration in the data center, reducing the problems of tag fading and falling off, and lowering the labor costs of regular replacement. On the other hand, when the cable path is adjusted due to equipment relocation, fault replacement, etc., the tag content can be directly rewritten by the reader without manual relabeling, avoiding discrepancies between the label and the actual cable, and reducing location errors during fault diagnosis. Example

[0051] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the connecting assembly includes two first permanent magnets 3, which are respectively embedded in the two ends of the base block 11. The outer end of the first permanent magnet 3 is coplanar with the end face of the base block 11, and the outer ends of the two first permanent magnets 3 and the second permanent magnet 13 have opposite magnetic poles.

[0052] By using two first permanent magnets 3 of the connecting component, which are located at both ends of the bottom block 11 with opposite magnetic poles, adjacent cable management blocks can be quickly spliced ​​together by magnetic attraction without the need for complicated tools. This simplifies the assembly process of the cable management rack. This magnetic connection method allows for flexible adjustment of the number of cable management blocks according to the cable path, adapting to changes in cable layout in scenarios such as equipment relocation. It also reduces human error caused by cumbersome cable management rack adjustments and indirectly ensures the consistency between cable markings and the actual state.

[0053] The first permanent magnet 3 at one end of the base block 11 has symmetrically opened insertion holes 31 on both sides of the base block 11. The first permanent magnet 3 at the other end of the base block 11 has symmetrically fixedly connected insertion rods 32 on both sides of the base block 11. The two insertion rods 32 are respectively positioned and matched with the two insertion holes 31.

[0054] The insertion rods 32 at both ends of the base block 11 mate with the insertion holes 31, providing positioning and guidance during the magnetic attraction of the permanent magnets. This ensures precise alignment of adjacent cable management blocks and prevents misalignment from causing the cable tray 12 to shift. Simultaneously, the cooperation between the insertion rods 32 and the insertion holes 31 enhances the stability of the cable management block connection, reduces loosening of the cable management frame caused by equipment vibration, and prevents cables from shifting within the tray 12. This maintains the correspondence between the cables and the RFID tags 44, further reducing the risk of discrepancies between the labels and the actual cables. Example

[0055] like Figure 3-5 As shown, the fixing component includes:

[0056] Four inserts 5 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the top block 1 near the bottom block 11. Each of the four inserts 5 has a connecting hole 54 on its outer side. Each of the four connecting holes 54 has a first spring 55 fixedly connected in it, and each of the four connecting holes 54 has a limit post 51 slidably connected in it. The other end of the first spring 55 is fixedly connected to the limit post 51.

[0057] Four rectangular holes 52 are provided at the top four corners of the bottom block 11. The four rectangular holes 52 correspond to the positions of the four insertion posts 5 and are adapted in size.

[0058] Four limiting holes 53 are provided on both sides of the bottom block 11 away from the two ends of the connecting component, and the four limiting holes 53 are respectively connected to the inner cavities of the four rectangular holes 52.

[0059] The insertion post 5 and the rectangular hole 52 provide precise positioning for the connection between the top block 1 and the bottom block 11. The combination of the first spring 55 and the limiting post 51 enables the two to be quickly locked together. When it is necessary to place or adjust the cable, pressing the limiting post 51 will release the lock. The top block 1 and the bottom block 11 can be disassembled and assembled without tools, improving the efficiency of cable management.

[0060] The limiting post 51 and the limiting hole 53 are positioned and matched in size, and the end of the limiting post 51 away from the first spring 55 is provided with a semi-circular protrusion.

[0061] By using the limiting post 51 to fit the limiting hole 53 and having a semi-circular protrusion at the end, it ensures that the connection between the top block 1 and the bottom block 11 is stable after they are engaged, resisting the risk of loosening caused by equipment vibration. At the same time, the arc surface reduces frictional resistance during disassembly and assembly, making the insertion and removal process smoother and reducing component wear.

[0062] A second spring 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of each of the four rectangular holes 52.

[0063] The second spring 6 inside the rectangular hole 52 is in a compressed state when the top block 1 and the bottom block 11 are engaged. When the locking of the limiting post 51 is released, the elastic force of the second spring 6 will actively push the top block 1 upward, assisting the separation of the top block 1 and the bottom block 11, further simplifying the disassembly operation. Example

[0064] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, a storage groove 42 is provided at the top center of the top of the top block 1. The RFID tag 44 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage groove 42. An inner edge 43 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage groove 42. A cover plate 4 is provided above the inner edge 43. A fixing bolt 41 passes through the cover plate 4, and the fixing bolt 41 is threadedly connected to the surface of the inner edge 43.

[0065] The RFID tag 44 is provided with a closed space by the storage slot 42, and the inner edge 43 is connected to the cover plate 4 by the fixing bolt 41 to form a sealed structure, which can effectively prevent dust from entering the data center and extend the service life of the RFID tag 44.

[0066] The top of the RFID tag 44 is in contact with the cover plate 4.

[0067] By reducing the distance between the RFID tag 44 and the cover plate 4, it is ensured that the reader can read the information of the RFID tag 44 through the cover plate 4.

[0068] The bottom end of the base block 11 is inlaid with a second permanent magnet 13, and the bottom end face of the second permanent magnet 13 is coplanar with the bottom end face of the base block 11.

[0069] The cable management rack can be quickly attached to the surface of the cabinet, metal bracket, etc. by the second permanent magnet 13 at the bottom of the base block 11. No drilling or bolt fixing is required. The installation process is simple and efficient. The position of the cable management rack can be flexibly adjusted according to the cable layout, while ensuring the stability of the installation.

[0070] The inner walls of the slots 12 of the bottom block 11 and the top block 1 are both fixedly connected with rubber rings 2, and the rubber rings 2 are elastic.

[0071] The elastic rubber ring 2 on the inner wall of the slot 12 can fit tightly against the cable surface, and the friction force restricts the cable from sliding in the slot, preventing displacement when the equipment vibrates or the cable is adjusted. In addition, the elastic properties of the rubber ring 2 can also buffer the rigid contact between the cable and the slot wall, protecting the cable sheath from damage.

[0072] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
