[0048] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structural design of a communication device provided in some embodiments of this application.

[0049] In some examples, technical problems existing in the relevant technologies are addressed by referring to... Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a communication device. The communication device may include a cabinet 10.

[0050] In some examples, cabinet 10 may include cabinet 11. Cabinet 11 may be made of materials such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel.

[0051] In some examples, the cabinet 11 may have a first receiving space 111. A support frame 30 may be provided in the first receiving space 111.

[0052] In some examples, the support frame 30 can be formed by square steel, angle steel or I-beams.

[0053] In some examples, the communication device may include an electrical component 20. The electrical component 20 may be mounted on a support frame 30.

[0054] In some examples, there may be multiple electrical components 20, and these multiple electrical components 20 may be located at different positions within the first receiving space 111.

[0055] In some examples, refer to Figure 1 As shown, multiple electrical components 20 can be along a first direction (e.g., Figure 1 The components (in the direction indicated by the z-axis) are arranged on the support frame 30.

[0056] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the fan and cabinet of the communication device provided in some embodiments of this application.

[0057] In some examples, this is for heat dissipation of electrical components 20 within the first accommodating space 111. See reference... Figure 2 As shown, the cabinet 10 may include a cooling fan 12. The cooling fan 12 may be located in the cabinet body 11.

[0058] In some examples, the cooling fan 12 may be located outside the cabinet 11. The cooling fan 12 can drive air from outside the cabinet 11 into the cabinet 11 and exchange heat with the electrical components 20. The hot air after heat exchange can be exhausted from the other side of the cabinet 11.

[0059] In some examples, refer to Figure 1 As shown, multiple electrical components 20 can be installed inside the cabinet 11, and these multiple electrical components 20 are arranged along a first direction within the first receiving space 111. The airflow driven by the cooling fan 12 into the first receiving space 111 may only be able to dissipate heat from a portion of the electrical components 20. This may result in some electrical components 20 within the first receiving space 111 experiencing localized overheating.

[0060] Therefore, referring to Figure 2 As shown in some examples of embodiments of this application, the cabinet 10 may include an air duct 14. The first end 141 of the air duct 14 may be connected to the air outlet of the cooling fan 12. The second end 142 of the air duct 14 may be connected to the first accommodating space 111.

[0061] In some examples, the second end 142 can be located within the first receiving space 111 at least along a first direction (e.g., Figure 1The device moves in the direction indicated by the z-axis. In this way, the cool air delivered by the cooling fan 12 can be delivered to various positions within the first accommodating space 111 through the moving second end 142, which can dissipate heat from the electrical components 20 at each position, improve the uniformity of heat dissipation from the electrical components 20, and improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the communication device.

[0062] In some examples, to improve the space utilization within the first accommodating space 111, the cooling fan 12 can be installed outside the cabinet 11. For example, the cooling fan 12 can be fixedly installed on the outer wall of the cabinet 11.

[0063] In some examples, to protect the cooling fan 12, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cabinet 10 may include a fan cover 13. The fan cover 13 may be fixedly mounted on the side wall of the solid side. The cooling fan 12 may be disposed inside the fan cover 13.

[0064] In some examples, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the fan cover 13 may be provided with an air inlet 131. The air inlet 131 may be located on the side of the fan cover 13 away from the cabinet body 11.

[0065] In some examples, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the air inlet 131 may be provided with a first filter 132. The first filter 132 may be fixedly connected to the fan cover 13, and the first filter 132 may block the air inlet 131.

[0066] In some examples, the first filter 132 can allow airflow. The first filter 132 can block large debris such as dust, leaves, twigs, or garbage bags.

[0067] In some examples, the first filter 132 may be the same as, similar to or similar to the filter in the related art. For details, please refer to the detailed description in the related art. The embodiments of this application will not repeat the details.

[0068] The cabinet 10 provided in this embodiment is connected to the air outlet of the cooling fan 12 via a first end 141 of a first air duct 14, and a second end 142 of the air duct 14 is connected to a first accommodating space 111. The second end 142 is configured to be movable within the first accommodating space 111 at least along a first direction. Thus, airflow can be delivered to different locations within the first accommodating space 111 by moving the second end 142 of the air duct 14. The movable second end 142 within the first accommodating space 111 can deliver airflow to different locations within the first accommodating space 111, thereby dissipating heat at different locations. This removes heat from the electrical components 20 located within the first accommodating space 111, preventing localized overheating and improving the uniformity of heat dissipation from the fan to the equipment within the cabinet 10, thus enhancing heat dissipation efficiency and improving the operational stability of the communication device.

[0069] In some examples, refer to Figure 2 As shown, a flow equalization element 15 may be provided within the first accommodating space 111. The flow equalization element 15 may be provided on at least one of the side wall, bottom wall, or top wall of the cabinet 11. In some examples of embodiments of this application, for ease of explanation, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the flow equalization element 15 is provided on one of the side walls of the cabinet 11 as an example.

[0070] In some examples, the flow equalization component 15 may have a flow equalization cavity (not shown in the figure). The flow equalization component 15 may be a component with a hollow structure, such as a box or a pipe, and the hollow part may serve as a flow equalization cavity.

[0071] In some examples, the flow equalization element 15 may have multiple airflow holes 151 on the side facing the electrical component 20. The airflow holes 151 may penetrate the inner and outer walls of the flow equalization element 15, thereby connecting the flow equalization cavity with the first receiving space 111.

[0072] In some examples, multiple airflow holes 151 may be arranged in a second direction (e.g., on the flow equalizer 15).

[0073] In some examples, multiple airflow holes 151 can be evenly distributed along the second direction on the flow equalizer 15.

[0074] In some examples, the second end 142 of the air supply duct 14 can be connected to the flow equalization cavity. That is, the air supply duct 14 can deliver the airflow from the heat dissipation fan through the second end 142 to the flow equalization cavity of the flow equalization member 15; and then deliver it to the first receiving space 111 through the multiple airflow holes 151 on the flow equalization member 15.

[0075] In some examples, the flow equalization element 15 can be at least along a first direction within the first receiving space 111 (e.g., Figure 1 and Figure 2 Move in the direction shown by the z-axis.

[0076] In some examples, the second end 142 can move along a first direction within the first receiving space 111 under the action of the flow equalization element 15.

[0077] In some examples, the air supply duct 14 can be configured as a retractable duct within the first receiving cavity; thus, when the flow equalization element 15 moves along the first direction within the first receiving space 111, it can drive the air supply duct 14 to extend or retract through the second end 142, thereby maintaining a stable connection between the second end 142 and the flow equalization element 15.

[0078] In some examples of embodiments of this application, a flow equalization member 15 is provided in the first accommodating space 111, and a plurality of airflow holes 151 are arranged on the flow equalization member 15 along the second direction, with the airflow holes 151 communicating with the flow equalization cavity of the flow equalization member 15. The second end 142 is also connected to the flow equalization cavity. The flow equalization member 15 is configured to be movable at least along the first direction within the first accommodating space 111. Thus, the airflow in the air duct 14 can be distributed along the second direction to the plurality of airflow holes 151 through the flow equalization cavity of the flow equalization member 15, and discharged from the plurality of airflow holes 151. When the flow equalization member 15 moves along the first direction, the airflow discharged from the plurality of airflow holes 151 can dissipate heat from the electrical components 20 in the first accommodating space 111. Therefore, heat dissipation of the electrical components 20 can be achieved in both the first and second directions, improving the uniformity of heat dissipation of the electrical components 20 and enhancing the heat dissipation efficiency and communication stability of the communication device.

[0079] In some examples, refer to Figure 2 As shown, a drive assembly 16 may be provided within the first accommodating space 111. The drive assembly 16 may be located on the inner wall of the cabinet 11.

[0080] In some examples, the output of the drive component 16 can be connected to the flow equalizer 15. The drive component 16 can drive the flow equalizer 15 to move within the first receiving space 111 along a first direction.

[0081] In some examples of embodiments of this application, a driving component 16 is disposed within the first accommodating space 111, and the output terminal of the driving component 16 is connected to the current sharing component 15. Thus, the driving component 16 can drive the current sharing component 15 to move along a first direction within the first accommodating space 111. This facilitates the movement of the current sharing component 15 within the first accommodating space 111, thereby facilitating heat dissipation for the electrical components 20 at various locations within the first accommodating space 111 and improving the heat dissipation efficiency and communication stability of the communication device.

[0082] In some examples, drive component 16 may include drive element 162. Drive element 162 may include linear drive element 162.

[0083] In some examples, the driving direction of the linear drive 162 can be along a first direction. That is, the linear drive 162 can drive the flow equalization member 15 to move within the first receiving space 111 along the first direction.

[0084] In some examples, the drive unit 162 may include a telescopic cylinder. The telescopic cylinder may extend or retract in a first direction. The free end of the telescopic cylinder may be connected to the flow equalization element 15. The telescopic cylinder may be fixed to the inner wall of the cabinet 11. When the telescopic cylinder extends or retracts, it can drive the flow equalization element 15 to move in the first direction.

[0085] In some examples, the drive element 162 may include a linear motor. The output of the linear motor may be connected to the flow equalizer 15.

[0086] In some examples, the drive element 162 may include a motor capable of both forward and reverse rotation. For example, it may include a servo motor, a synchronous motor, or a stepper motor.

[0087] In some examples, the drive assembly 16 may include at least two gears, which may be arranged side by side along a first direction. A timing belt, belt, or chain may be fitted onto the two gears. The timing belt, belt, or chain may be connected to the flow equalizer 15.

[0088] In some examples, the drive unit 162 can be driven to one of the two gears. When the drive unit 162 drives the gear to rotate, the timing belt, belt, or chain can drive the flow equalizer 15 to move in the first direction, thereby dissipating heat from the electrical components 20 located in various positions within the first accommodating space 111.

[0089] In some examples, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the drive assembly 16 may include a support member 161. The support member 161 may be fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cabinet 11.

[0090] In some examples, the drive element 162 may be located on the support element 161.

[0091] In some examples, the drive assembly 16 may include a lead screw 163. The lead screw 163 may be rotatably mounted on the support 161.

[0092] In some examples, the axial direction of the lead screw 163 can be set along a first direction. The lead screw 163 can be connected to the output shaft of the drive 162.

[0093] In some examples, to improve the stability of the lead screw 163 rotation, refer to Figure 2 As shown, two support members 161 may be provided. The two support members 161 may be arranged opposite each other along the first direction.

[0094] In some examples, along the axial direction of the lead screw 163, two supports 161 may be disposed opposite each other at both ends of the lead screw 163.

[0095] In some examples, the drive assembly 16 may include a slider 164. The slider 164 may fit around the outer periphery of the lead screw 163. The slider 164 may be threadedly connected to the lead screw 163. The slider 164 may be connected to the flow equalizer 15.

[0096] In some examples of embodiments of this application, a support member 161 is provided on the inner wall of the cabinet 11, and the drive member 162 is mounted on the support member 161. This facilitates the installation and fixation of the drive member 162 on the side wall of the cabinet 11, improving the installation and assembly efficiency of the cabinet 10. A lead screw 163 is rotatably provided on the support member 161, with the axial direction of the lead screw 163 along a first direction. The lead screw 163 is connected to the output shaft of the drive member 162. A slider 164 is sleeved on the lead screw 163, and the slider 164 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 163 and connected to the flow equalization member 15. Thus, when the drive member 162 drives the lead screw 163 to rotate, the lead screw 163 can drive the slider 164 to move along the first direction, thereby causing the slider 164 to drive the flow equalization member 15 to move along the first direction. When the flow equalization component 15 moves along the first direction, the lead screw 163 guides the movement of the flow equalization component 15 through the slider 164, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the flow equalization component 15. This enhances the safety of the flow equalization component 15 moving within the first accommodating space 111.

[0097] In some examples, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a guide mechanism 17 may be provided within the first accommodating space 111. The guiding direction of the guide mechanism 17 may be consistent with the first direction.

[0098] In some examples, the guide mechanism 17 may be connected to the flow equalizer 15. As the flow equalizer 15 moves in a first direction, the guide mechanism 17 may guide the flow equalizer 15 in that first direction.

[0099] In some examples of embodiments of this application, a guide mechanism 17 is provided in the first accommodating space 111, the guide direction of the guide mechanism 17 is consistent with the first direction, and the guide mechanism 17 is connected to the flow equalization member 15; in this way, the flow equalization member 15 can be guided in the first direction by the guide mechanism 17, which can improve the stability of the flow equalization member 15 moving in the first direction and improve the security of the communication device.

[0100] In some examples, refer to Figure 2 As shown, along the second direction, the guide mechanism 17 and the drive assembly 16 can be located at opposite ends of the flow equalization member 15.

[0101] In some examples, along the second direction, the guide mechanism 17 may be located at one end of the flow equalizer 15. The guide mechanism 17 may be located at the other end of the flow equalizer 15.

[0103] In some examples, the guide groove 171 may be provided on either the inner wall of the cabinet 11 or the flow equalization element 15.

[0104] In some examples, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the guide groove 171 can be provided on the inner wall of the cabinet 11. The guide groove 171 can be recessed into the inner wall of the cabinet 11.

[0105] In some examples, two opposing protrusions can be provided on the inner wall of the cabinet 11, and the gap between the two protrusions can serve as a guide groove 171.

[0106] In some examples, guide groove 171 may be provided on flow equalizer 15. Guide groove 171 may be located on the side of flow equalizer 15 away from electrical component 20.

[0107] In some examples, the guide mechanism 17 may include a guide block 172. The guide block 172 may be disposed on either the inner wall of the cabinet 11 or the flow equalization element 15. The guide block 172 is embedded in at least a portion of the guide groove 171.

[0108] In some examples, guide block 172 may be disposed on flow equalizer 15. Guide block 172 may be located on the side of flow equalizer 15 opposite to electrical component 20. At least a portion of guide block 172 may be disposed within guide groove 171 on inner wall of cabinet 11. Guide block 172 may slide in a first direction within guide groove 171.

[0109] In some examples, the guide block 172 may be disposed on the inner wall of the cabinet 11. The guide block 172 may include a protrusion disposed on the inner wall of the cabinet 11. The protrusion may be a strip-shaped structure along a first direction. The guide block 172 may be disposed in the guide groove 171 on the flow equalization member 15, and the flow equalization member 15 may move along the guide block 172 in the first direction.

[0110] In some examples of embodiments of this application, a guide groove 171 along a first direction is provided on one of the inner wall of the cabinet 11 and the flow equalization component 15, and a guide block 172 is provided on the other side of the inner wall of the cabinet 11 and the flow equalization component 15.
