Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model is a high-density computer room quick-connect tap distribution structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of power systems, modular busbars are widely used in industrial plants, high-rise buildings, and data centers due to their compact structure, flexible wiring, and convenient installation and maintenance. In practical applications, modular busbar systems often require multiple tap units to allow for flexible connection to different electrical devices. However, existing connection methods between tap units and the busbar mostly employ simple plug-in structures or bolt fastening, which have significant shortcomings in terms of structural reliability, installation efficiency, and operational safety.

[0003] While plug-in structures are convenient to operate, they generally suffer from problems such as loose connections and insecure plugging, especially during long-term operation or in environments subject to vibration, which can lead to poor contact and subsequently electrical faults or safety hazards. On the other hand, bolted structures provide a secure connection, but the installation and disassembly process is cumbersome, requires tools, and is inconvenient to operate at heights or in confined spaces, which greatly affects assembly efficiency and maintenance response speed.

[0004] Furthermore, current positioning structures lack effective limit control mechanisms, making it difficult to accurately position or reliably lock during tap changer assembly. This can easily lead to positioning deviations or misoperations, affecting the overall system's operational stability. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a combined busbar tap changer positioning structure that ensures secure connection, convenient assembly and disassembly, and reliable positioning and locking functions to improve overall system performance and operational safety. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a high-density data center quick-connect tap distribution structure.

[0006] A high-density data center quick-connect power distribution structure includes a tap unit body and a busbar. The front end of the busbar is provided with several sockets, and the rear end of the tap unit body is provided with corresponding plugs. Each socket is provided with a snap-fit ​​bracket on both sides. The snap-fit ​​bracket is provided with a connection port on its surface. The length of the connection port is greater than its width. The snap-fit ​​bracket is provided with a space communicating with the connection port inside. Pull rods are movably inserted through both sides of the plug. The end of the pull rod away from the snap-fit ​​bracket is provided with a handle, and the other end near the snap-fit ​​bracket is provided with a stop block. The length of the stop block is greater than the width of the connection port and less than the length of the connection port. The width of the stop block is less than the width of the connection port. The pull rod passes through the mounting base in the tapping unit body. The mounting base is rotatably connected to the mounting port on the front side plate of the tapping unit body. One end of the handle is provided with a connecting part, and the other end is a free end. One end of the connecting part is hinged to one end of the pull rod, and the other end is hinged to one end of the connector. The other end of the connector is hinged to the mounting base.

[0007] Furthermore, the connecting part is a two-branch structure extending from one end of the handle. The connecting part and the handle form a Y-shaped structure. The connecting part is provided with a first connecting point and a second connecting point. The line connecting the first connecting point and the second connecting point is at a first predetermined angle with the line connecting the first connecting point and the free end of the handle. The first connecting point is used to connect with the connecting piece, and the second connecting point is used to connect with the pull rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the first predetermined angle is 90°. Furthermore, the connector includes a left side plate, a right side plate, and a connecting plate. The two ends of the connecting plate are fixedly connected to the middle of the left side plate and the right side plate, respectively. The upper parts of the left side plate and the right side plate are hinged to the first connection point of the connecting part, and the lower parts are hinged to the second connection point of the connecting part.

[0009] Furthermore, a through hole is provided at the center of the mounting base, and a cylinder is provided at the through hole. The mounting base is sleeved on the pull rod through the through hole and is located outside the front side plate of the tapping unit body. A limiting block is provided on the inner side of the front side plate and sleeved on the cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a limiting mechanism, the limiting structure including a limiting plate and a limiting ring. The limiting plate is set at the mounting port on the surface of the front side plate of the tapping unit body, and the limiting ring is sleeved on the cylinder of the mounting base and located outside the front side plate of the tapping unit body. The outer surface of the limiting ring is provided with a limiting protrusion, and the surface of the limiting plate is provided with a clearance notch for the mounting base. The inner wall of the clearance notch is provided with two limiting steps at intervals along the rotation trajectory of the limiting protrusion. The included angle between the lines connecting the two limiting steps to the center point of the rotation trajectory of the limiting protrusion is a second predetermined angle.

[0011] Furthermore, the second predetermined angle is 90°.

[0012] Furthermore, a handle is provided on the tap unit body.

[0013] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: This positioning structure has significant advantages in structural design and operation. Firstly, in terms of connection stability, by providing a rotatable mounting base and a matching pull rod and stop mechanism, it can achieve precise insertion and secure locking between the tap unit body and the busbar, avoiding the problems of easy loosening or poor contact in traditional plug-in structures, and effectively improving the reliability and safety of system operation.

[0014] Secondly, this structure significantly improves ease of operation. Axial movement is achieved by driving the lever with a handle, and locking or releasing the stop is accomplished in conjunction with the rotating mounting base. The entire connection and disassembly process requires no external tools, making operation intuitive and simple. It is suitable for frequent assembly or maintenance operations, significantly reducing the labor intensity and training threshold for workers.

[0015] In addition, this structure is equipped with a limiting mechanism (including a limiting plate, a limiting ring, a step, and rotation angle control) to ensure that the mounting base only works within the set angle range, avoiding locking failure or disassembly difficulties caused by misoperation, and further improving the operational accuracy and safety of the system.

[0016] In terms of mechanical stability, the stop is designed to be rotatable and locked inside the buckle bracket. Its structural dimensions and the connection port have high matching precision, and it has good anti-disengagement ability. At the same time, the snap-fit ​​structure between the locking buckle foot and the busbar housing further enhances the shock resistance and external interference resistance of the entire tap unit in the working state.

[0017] Finally, this positioning structure has good modularity and adaptability, and can be applied to various specifications of combined busbar systems. It also has high reusability and standardization potential, which is conducive to mass production and later maintenance, and improves the economy and engineering efficiency of the overall system.

[0019] To enhance understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. These embodiments are only used to explain the present utility model and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0020] A high-density data center quick-connect power distribution structure includes a tap unit body and a busbar 2. The front end of the busbar 2 has several sockets 3, and the rear end of the tap unit body has corresponding plugs 7. Each socket 3 has a latching bracket 4 on both sides. The latching bracket 4 has a connection port 5 on its surface, with the length of the connection port 5 being greater than its width. The latching bracket 4 has a space communicating with the connection port 5 inside. Pull rods 8 are movably inserted through both sides of the plug 7. The pull rod 8 has a handle 15 at the end away from the latching bracket 4 and a... There is a stop block 9. The length of the stop block 9 is greater than the width of the connection port 5 and less than the length of the connection port 5. The width of the stop block 9 is less than the width of the connection port 5. The pull rod 8 passes through the mounting base 20 in the body of the tapping unit. The mounting base 20 is rotatably connected to the mounting port of the front side plate 10 of the tapping unit body. One end of the handle 15 is provided with a connecting part 16, and the other end is a free end. One end of the connecting part 16 is hinged to one end of the pull rod 8, and the other end is hinged to one end of the connector 19. The other end of the connector 19 is hinged to the mounting base 20.

[0021] The tap unit body and busbar 2 are connected by a plug-in positioning mechanism through the above structure. During assembly, the operator can use the handle to pick up the tap unit body and precisely align the plug 7 with the socket 3 of the busbar 2 before inserting it.

[0022] When the plug 7 enters the socket 3, the operator rotates the mounting base 20, allowing the stop 9 to smoothly pass through the connection port 5 of the snap-fit ​​bracket 4 and enter the internal space. The mounting base 20 is then rotated further, aligning the stop 9 with the width of the connection port 5 from its length direction, creating a snap-fit ​​and preventing it from sliding out freely. Subsequently, by rotating the handle 15, the pull rod 8 is pushed forward axially, pressing the stop 9 against the inner wall of the connection port 5, thus preventing the pull rod 8 from moving backward. Due to the axial constraint between the pull rod 8 and the tap unit body, the tap unit body will thus be pressed tightly against the socket 3, resulting in a tighter electrical connection between the plug 7 and the socket 3.

[0023] This positioning structure effectively improves the connection stability and electrical contact reliability of the tap unit, preventing loosening or detachment due to vibration or external interference. Simultaneously, the rotational operation, rather than push-pull or plug-in manipulation, reduces manual labor intensity and improves assembly convenience and precision. Furthermore, the design of the motion transmission relationship between the pull rod 8, mounting base 20, connector 19, and handle 15 in this structure is reasonable, providing good operating feel and feedback performance, which is beneficial for batch assembly operations.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the connecting part 16 is a two-branch structure extending from one end of the handle 15. The connecting part 16 and the handle 15 form a Y-shaped structure. The connecting part 16 is provided with a first connecting point 17 and a second connecting point 18. A first predetermined angle is provided between the line connecting the first connecting point 17 and the second connecting point 18 and the line connecting the first connecting point 17 and the free end of the handle 15. The first connecting point 17 is used to connect with the connector 19, and the second connecting point 18 is used to connect with the pull rod 8.

[0025] This structure achieves synchronous transmission between the handle 15, the pull rod 8, and the connector 19 through the Y-shaped connecting part 16. The Y-shaped structure provides a large lever space, which helps to stabilize the force transmission. By setting the positions of the first connection point 17 and the second connection point 18, the pull rod 8 can move axially in a controlled manner, while driving the connector 19 to move, so that the entire locking structure works stably and improves the smoothness and reliability of the mechanism operation.

[0026] In one possible implementation, the first predetermined angle is 90°.

[0027] Setting the angle to 90° achieves the best leverage effect in force transmission, optimizes the driving force path of the handle 15 to the pull rod 8 during rotation, enhances the mechanical stability of the positioning mechanism, simplifies manufacturing and assembly, and facilitates standardized production.

[0028] In one possible implementation, the connector 19 includes a left side plate, a right side plate, and a connecting plate. The two ends of the connecting plate are fixedly connected to the middle of the left side plate and the right side plate, respectively. The upper parts of the left side plate and the right side plate are hinged to the first connection point 17 of the connecting part 16, and the lower parts are hinged to the second connection point 18 of the connecting part 16.

[0029] Through the above structure, the connector 19 plays a role in flexibly rotating and transmitting force between the mounting base 20 and the pull rod 8. The left and right side plates form a stable frame through the connecting plate, respectively connecting to the two connection points of the connecting part 16, realizing force transmission and mechanical stability during operation. This structure ensures that the connector 19 can provide good support and response when rotating the handle 15, enhancing the overall reliability of the mechanism.

[0030] In one possible implementation, the mounting base 20 has a through hole at its center, and a cylinder 22 is provided at the through hole. The mounting base 20 is sleeved on the pull rod 8 through the through hole and is located outside the front side plate 10 of the disassembly unit body 1. A limiting block 21 sleeved on the cylinder 22 is provided on the inner side of the front side plate 10.

[0031] The cylinder 22, in conjunction with the through hole, forms the core rotation fulcrum of the mounting base 20, limiting its rotation range and position. The limiting block 21 is located inside the front side plate 10, effectively preventing axial displacement of the mounting base 20, ensuring that the pull rod 8 is controlled during rotational transmission, and improving the accuracy and repeatability of the entire locking structure.

[0032] In one possible implementation, a limiting mechanism is also included. The limiting structure includes a limiting plate 11 and a limiting ring 23. The limiting plate 11 is disposed at the mounting opening on the surface of the front side plate 10 of the disassembly unit body 1. The limiting ring 23 is sleeved on the cylinder 22 of the mounting base 20 and is located outside the front side plate 10 of the disassembly unit body 1. The outer surface of the limiting ring 23 is provided with a limiting protrusion 12. The surface of the limiting plate 11 is provided with a clearance notch 13 for the mounting base 20. The inner wall of the clearance notch 13 is provided with two limiting steps 14 at intervals along the rotation trajectory of the limiting protrusion 12. The included angle between the lines connecting the two limiting steps 14 to the center point of the rotation trajectory of the limiting protrusion 12 is a second predetermined angle.

[0033] The limiting structure, through the cooperation between the limiting ring 23 and the limiting plate 11, forms a reliable rotation angle limiting mechanism. The interaction between the limiting protrusion 12, the clearance notch 13, and the step can effectively control the rotation of the mounting base 20 within a specific angle, avoiding positional deviation or connection abnormalities of the pull rod 8 caused by excessive or misoperation, thereby ensuring operational safety and connection reliability.

[0034] In one possible implementation, the second predetermined angle is 90°.

[0035] Setting the rotation angle of the limiting structure to 90° provides a clear rotation limit, which helps operators quickly complete positioning or release operations, while ensuring the stability and repeatability of the locking and unlocking actions, improving product consistency and user experience.

[0036] In one possible implementation, the disassembly unit body 1 is provided with a handle.

[0037] The handle enhances ease of operation during assembly or disassembly. Operators can apply force with the handle to accurately insert or remove the tap unit body into or out of the busbar 2 connector 3, reducing workload and improving overall assembly efficiency.

[0038] In one possible implementation, locking feet are provided on both sides of the tap unit body. The middle part of the locking feet 6 is hinged to the tap unit body, and a downward bending section is provided on the side near the busbar 2. The bending section is used to snap into the recess of the busbar 2 housing.

[0039] With this structure, after the plugging operation is completed, the bent section of the plugging unit can be inserted into the recess of the busbar 2 housing by rotating the locking foot, forming an additional mechanical lock. This prevents the tap unit from accidentally falling off due to vibration, external force or environmental interference, and enhances the overall connection stability and safety.

[0040] Working Principle: This positioning structure achieves reliable connection and convenient disassembly between the tap unit body and the busbar 2 through the linkage between the handle 15, pull rod 8, connector 19, and mounting base 20. During assembly, the operator can align the plug 7 with the busbar 2 socket 3 using the handle on the tap unit body and push it in to complete the initial insertion and positioning. Subsequently, rotating the mounting base 20 causes the stop 9 at the end of the pull rod 8 to pass through the connection port 5 on the busbar 2 clip bracket 4 and enter its internal space. Continuing to rotate the mounting base 20 causes the stop 9 to change from longitudinal to lateral positioning, with its length direction corresponding to the short side of the connection port 5, thereby preventing the stop 9 from disengaging from the connection port 5 and forming a preliminary mechanical lock.

[0041] After locking the stop 9, the operator rotates the handle 15. Through the hinged transmission relationship between the handle 15, the pull rod 8, and the connector 19, the pull rod 8 is driven to move forward axially, causing the stop 9 to abut against the inner wall of the buckle bracket 4. In this state, the pull rod 8 cannot move backward, and due to the reaction force between the pull rod 8 and the tap unit body, the tap unit body will further press against the socket 3, enhancing the tightness of the contact between the plug 7 and the socket 3, ensuring a stable and reliable electrical connection.

[0042] After the above basic connection is completed, the locking feet on both sides of the tap unit body are rotated to lock the bent section into the recess of the busbar 2 housing, forming the final anti-loosening locking mechanism to prevent the connection from loosening or the body from falling off due to external force or vibration during operation.

[0043] When disassembly is required, the operator first releases the locking buckle from the busbar 2 housing, then rotates handle 15 in the opposite direction to move lever 8 backward, releasing the stop block 9 from pressing against the inner wall of connection port 5. Next, rotate mounting base 20 to readjust stop block 9 so it can pass through connection port 5, completing the unlocking process. Finally, the operator can smoothly pull the tap unit body off busbar 2 using the handle, achieving a safe and efficient disassembly operation.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
