Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of server rack technology, specifically to a server rack cable management and fixing device. Background Technology

[0002] Server racks are used to assemble and install panels, plug-ins, cabinets, electronic components, devices, and mechanical parts and components into a complete installation enclosure. Server racks consist of a frame and a cover, and are generally rectangular in shape, placed on the floor. They provide a suitable environment and safety protection for the normal operation of electronic equipment. This is the first level of assembly, second only to the system level. A rack without a closed structure is called a server rack. Server racks have good technical performance. The structure of the rack should have good rigidity and strength, as well as good electromagnetic isolation, grounding, noise isolation, ventilation and heat dissipation performance. In addition, server racks should have vibration resistance, impact resistance, corrosion resistance, dustproof, waterproof, and radiation protection properties to ensure stable and reliable operation of the equipment.

[0003] Server racks are a crucial component of servers. To ensure the safety of server racks and servers, and to guarantee the stable operation of servers within the racks, cable management and fixing devices are needed for cable organization and ease of user management. A search revealed Chinese patent CN217159170U, which discloses a cable organization and fixing device for substations.

The bottom of the inner wall of the organization box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing ring, and the two sides of the bottom of the organization cover are movably connected to the two sides of the top of the organization box. This invention uses grooves to insert loose cables. As the cables are inserted, they compress spring clips, causing the clips to move outwards. The spring clips then rebound to fix the cables. Fixing blocks are then used to fill the upper and lower positions of the cables, improving the cable fixing effect and solving the problem of relatively standardized organization of integrated cables. However, some loose cables are often randomly laid at the bottom of the inner wall of the organization box, which not only affects aesthetics but also makes it difficult for electricians to find the correct cables when maintenance or replacement is needed.

The front of the support block 302 extends through the front of the horizontal block 2. A fixing block 303 is provided inside the support block 302. The front of the fixing block 303 extends through the interior of the horizontal block 2. A positioning component 304 is provided on the rear side inside the horizontal block 2. The side of the positioning component 304 near the cabinet 1 extends through the interior of the cabinet 1.

[0025] refer to Figure 4 The positioning component 304 includes a gear 304a, which is located on the rear side inside the horizontal block 2. The top and bottom of the gear 304a are provided with locking blocks 304b. The side of the locking block 304b near the cabinet 1 extends into the interior of the cabinet 1. A connecting rod 304c is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the gear 304a. The front of the connecting rod 304c extends into the front of the horizontal block 2 and is fixedly connected to a rotating block 304d.

[0026] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the positioning component 304 can be used to position the horizontal block 2 and prevent the horizontal block 2 from detaching from the cabinet 1.

[0027] refer to Figure 3 Both sides of the inner wall of the cabinet 1 are provided with limiting grooves 4 for use with the horizontal block 2, and the inner wall of the limiting grooves 4 is provided with slots 5 for use with the card block 304b.

[0028] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the position of the horizontal block 2 can be limited by the setting of the limiting groove 4 to prevent the horizontal block 2 from leaving the cabinet 1. The position of the horizontal block 2 can be positioned by the setting of the card slot 5 to prevent the horizontal block 2 from moving when it is not needed.

[0029] refer to Figure 4 The side of the locking block 304b near the gear 304a has a tooth groove that works with the gear 304a. The top and bottom of the gear 304a mesh with the surface of the locking block 304b. The side of the horizontal block 2 near the clamping block 301 is fixedly connected to a first washer 6, and the side of the clamping block 301 away from the support block 302 is fixedly connected to a second washer 7.

[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the tooth groove can facilitate the movement of the clamping block 304b when the gear 304a rotates. The first shim 6 and the second shim 7 can reduce the friction between the cross block 2 and the clamping block 301 on the cable and protect the cable.

[0031] refer to Figure 4 Springs 8 are provided on both sides inside the horizontal block 2. One side of the spring 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the horizontal block 2, and the other side of the spring 8 is fixedly connected to the surface of the locking block 304b.

[0032] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the position of the locking block 304b can be limited by the setting of the spring 8, so as to facilitate the reset of the locking block 304b and the gear 304a.

[0033] refer to Figure 4 The inner wall of the horizontal block 2 is provided with a fixing groove 9 that works with the fixing block 303. The back of the fixing block 303 is provided with a spring piece 10, and the back of the spring piece 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support block 302.

[0034] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the position of the support block 302 and the clamping block 301 can be limited by the setting of the fixing groove 9, and the fixing block 303 can be easily reset by the setting of the spring piece 10.

[0035] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, the user rotates the rotating block 304d clockwise. The rotation of the rotating block 304d causes the connecting rod 304c and gear 304a to rotate clockwise. The rotation of gear 304a causes the locking block 304b to move inward, disengaging it from the slot 5. The inward movement of the locking block 304b compresses the spring 8. Then, the user pulls the horizontal block 2 forward, disengaging it from the cabinet 1. At this point, the horizontal block 2 can be disassembled. Installation is performed by reversing the operation to install the horizontal block 2. Afterward, when organizing and securing cables, the user presses the fixing block 303 backward, disengaging it from the fixed block. The fixing block 303 moves backward to compress the spring 10 in the fixed slot 9. At the same time, the user pulls the support block 302 inward. The support block 302 moves inward, causing the clamping block 301 to move inward. At this time, the user places the cable into the clamping block 301 and the horizontal block 2 to sort and organize the cable. Then, the user pushes outward to clamp the cable inside the horizontal block 2 with the clamping block 301. After that, the fixing block 303 is released, and the spring force of the spring 10 causes the fixing block 303 to return to its original position, so that the fixing block 303 is inserted into the fixed slot 9 to position the support block 302 and the clamping block 301. At this time, the cable can be sorted and fixed.

[0036] In summary, this server rack cable management and fixing device uses positioning component 304 to fix the position of horizontal block 2, and then fixes and organizes the cables inside the rack 1 through fixing mechanism 3. This solves the problem that most cable management and fixing devices are installed and fixed with bolts, which is cumbersome, increases the user's construction time, and can also cause bolt damage or stripping due to improper operation, resulting in unstable connection and detachment of the cable management and fixing device from the server rack.
