Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cabinet supporting equipment technology, and in particular to a data center cabinet top busbar fixing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the data center operating system, server racks serve as the carriers for core equipment such as servers and switches. The busbars mounted on top of these racks bear the critical function of power transmission and are an important component for ensuring stable power supply to servers, switches, and other equipment. With the continuous growth in data center computing power demand and the increasing density of server rack layouts, higher requirements are placed on the installation stability, space adaptability, and ease of maintenance of the busbars. Currently, the mounting of top busbars in data center server racks primarily relies on two traditional structures: hangers or brackets. Hanger mounting involves extending metal supports from the data center ceiling downwards, suspending and securing the busbars to the top area of ​​the rack. Bracket mounting, on the other hand, involves directly mounting metal brackets onto the top frame of the rack itself, providing bottom support and securing the busbars. These two mounting methods were widely used in early low-density rack layouts, with the core design concept revolving around basic mounting. Traditional connections between hangers and ceilings, and between brackets and foundation brackets, rely on rigid fastening methods such as bolts. This connection method essentially achieves fixation through physical locking. Hangers require long bolts to penetrate pre-drilled holes in the metal bracket and ceiling, then nuts are tightened to create a rigid anchor. Brackets, on the other hand, require bolts to directly attach metal plates to pre-defined points on the top frame of the server rack or foundation bracket. Neither method allows for flexible adjustment and only meets the basic requirement of long-term immobility after installation. When data centers need to change power supply paths due to equipment upgrades or increased computing power, requiring adjustments to busbar installation positions, workers must first use wrenches, screwdrivers, and other tools to remove the existing bolts one by one and remove the hangers or brackets. This entire adjustment process not only requires multiple workers to collaborate but may also damage the original building structure or the server rack itself. Therefore, a data center rack top busbar fixing device needs to be designed.

[0003] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of this application concept, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a data center cabinet top busbar fixing device to solve the problem that traditional hangers and brackets use bolts to rigidly fix the busbars, which requires removing bolts and components during adjustment, is labor-intensive, and may damage the building or cabinet.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: a data center cabinet top busbar fixing device, mainly including a data center cabinet, on which a power distribution busbar is mounted, the power distribution busbar being formed by connecting multiple sets of compact busbar trunking; an assembly component, which is disposed on the data center cabinet, the assembly component including a support part installed on the data center cabinet, the support part including a base bracket fixed on the data center cabinet in an arrangement, the vertical ends of the multiple sets of base brackets being connected to two sets of vertically arranged connecting rods, the horizontally arranged multiple sets of connecting rods having a slide rail fixed at one end, a sliding base being slidably disposed in both sets of slide rails, and a locking part for fixing the position of the compact busbar trunking being fixed on the sliding base.

[0006] Furthermore, the base bracket is L-shaped, the horizontal end of the base bracket is fixed to the data center cabinet, and the vertical end and the horizontal end of the base bracket are connected and fixed by a reinforcing rod. The slide rail has a U-shaped groove structure, and the two sets of slide rails are arranged in parallel with a gap between them.

[0007] Furthermore, an mounting plate is fixedly connected between the two sets of sliding bases arranged vertically. The mounting plate is fixedly connected to a set of dense busbars by fasteners. A handle is fixed between the two sets of sliding bases arranged vertically. The handle has a T-shaped cross-section. Opening grooves are provided on the side of the two sets of slide rails that are close to each other. The handle is located at the gap between the two sets of slide rails.

[0008] Furthermore, the locking part includes a base fixed on the sliding base, a pressing rod hinged to one end of the base, and a rotating member hinged to the other end of the base. The rotating member is movably connected to the pressing rod through the hinge. A screw passes through the pressing rod, and a clamping end is fixed to one end of the screw. Fixing holes are provided on the slide rail and the sliding base at the upper end.

[0009] Furthermore, the fixing holes on the slide rail are arranged at equal intervals to provide multiple locking positions for the sliding base.

[0010] Furthermore, a nut is threaded onto the screw, and the nut is fitted against the lower surface of the crimping rod.

[0011] Furthermore, one end of the rotating component is fixed with an operating handle that facilitates the application of force to it.

[0012] The above-mentioned technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects: A data center cabinet top busbar fixing device utilizes a support component with a base bracket and connecting rods to construct a stable support frame. The sliding rail and sliding base work together to form an adjustable structure. Unlike traditional hangers and brackets that rely on rigid bolt locking, this device eliminates the need for tools to remove bolts. Workers can flexibly adjust the position of the dense busbar trunking by simply pushing the sliding base along the rail, adapting to changes in power supply paths during data center equipment upgrades and computing power expansions, thus reducing manpower costs. Furthermore, the locking mechanism quickly secures the sliding base after adjustment, ensuring stable operation of the power distribution busbar while avoiding damage to the building structure or cabinet itself caused by traditional disassembly. This device balances the reliability of busbar fixing with the flexibility of position adjustment, meeting the long-term dynamic needs of data centers. Attached Figure Description

[0015] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0016] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Reference Figures 1-2 As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a data center cabinet top bus fixing device, including a data center cabinet 1, which is the core equipment carrier of the data center and is used to install IT equipment such as servers. It also provides an installation foundation for the cabinet top bus. A power distribution bus 2 is installed above the data center cabinet 1. It is the terminal power distribution and transmission component of the data center. It is formed by connecting multiple sets of dense bus trunking 21. It achieves high current transmission through densely arranged copper busbars and has the characteristics of low loss and high stability. A starting box 22 is fixed near one end of a set of dense bus trunking 21. The starting box 22 is the power input component of the power distribution bus 2 and is used to introduce external power into the bus system. At the same time, the bottom of the dense bus trunking 21 has a plug-in device (not shown in the figure), and a plug-in box 23 is plugged into the plug-in device. The plug-in box 23 is the power output component of the power distribution bus 2 and is used to distribute the power of the bus to the equipment in the data center cabinet 1. During operation, the external power supply is connected to the power distribution bus 2, which consists of multiple sets of dense busbar trunking 21, through the starting box 22. High current and low loss transmission are achieved through the dense copper busbar. The power is delivered to the plug-in box 23 through the plug-in device at the bottom of the busbar trunking. The plug-in box 23 then distributes the power to the IT equipment such as servers in the data center cabinet 1 below, thereby completing the power supply and distribution at the end of the data center and ensuring the stable operation of the equipment.

[0018] like Figures 3-5 As shown, an assembly component 3 for supporting and fixing the power distribution busbar 2 is provided on the data center cabinet 1. The assembly component 3 includes a support part installed on the data center cabinet 1. The support part includes a base bracket 31 arranged in an L shape and fixed on the data center cabinet 1. The horizontal end of the base bracket 31 is fixed on the data center cabinet 1. At the same time, the vertical end and the horizontal end of the base bracket 31 are connected and fixed by a reinforcing rod 32 to improve the deformation resistance of the base bracket 31 under load. Two sets of vertically arranged connecting rods 33 are connected and fixed to the vertical ends of multiple sets of base brackets 31. A slide rail 34 is connected and fixed to one end of the two sets of horizontally arranged connecting rods 33. The slide rail 34 adopts a U-shaped groove structure in cross section. The two sets of slide rails 34 are arranged in parallel and have a gap between them. Meanwhile, sliding bases 35 are slidably arranged in both sets of slide rails 34. A mounting plate 351 is fixedly connected between the two sets of sliding bases 35 arranged vertically. The mounting plate 351 is connected and fixed to a set of compact busbar troughs 21 by fasteners, realizing the assembly of the compact busbar troughs 21 and the sliding bases 35. At the same time, a handle 36 is fixed between the two sets of sliding bases 35 arranged vertically. The handle 36 has a T-shaped cross section, which is convenient for manual gripping and pushing, so that the sliding base 35 can slide linearly along the slide rails 34. At the same time, an open slide groove 341 is opened on the side of the two sets of slide rails 34 that are close to each other. The two ends of the handle 36 pass through the open slide groove 341 and are connected and fixed to the two sets of sliding bases 35. The handle 36 is located at the gap between the two sets of slide rails 34, so as to drive the sliding base 35 to slide along the linear direction of the slide rails 34. Furthermore, a locking part is fixed on the upper sliding base 35 to fix the position of the compact busbar trough 21. This locking part is a position locking component between the sliding base 35 and the slide rail 34, ensuring that the position of the compact busbar trough 21 is stable after adjustment and preventing displacement during operation. The locking part includes a base 37 fixed on the sliding base 35, and a pressing rod 38 is hinged to one end of the base 37. At the same time, a rotating member 311 is hinged to the other end of the base 37. The rotating member 311 is movably connected to the pressing rod 38 through a hinge 312, and one end of the rotating member 311 is fixed with an operating handle 313 for easy application of force, facilitating manual rotation of the rotating member 311. 11. Locking or unlocking operation is achieved, and a screw 39 passes through the crimping rod 38. One end of the screw 39 is fixed with a pressing end 391. Fixing holes 342 are provided on the upper slide rail 34 and the sliding base 35. The fixing holes 342 on the slide rail 34 are arranged at equal intervals. The fixing holes 342 are the positioning holes of the locking part. The equidistant fixing holes 342 on the slide rail 34 provide multiple locking positions for the sliding base 35. A nut 310 is threaded onto the screw 39. The nut 310 is set to fit against the lower surface of the crimping rod 38. By cooperating with the screw 39, the height of the pressing end 391 can be adjusted and the pressure locked.

[0019] When the locking mechanism is in operation, the operator manually rotates the operating handle 313 to drive the rotating component 311 to rotate. Through the hinge component 312, the pressing rod 38 rotates around the hinge point of the base 37, thereby pushing the screw 39 and the pressing end 391 downward, so that the pressing end 391 is inserted into the fixing hole 342 of the slide rail 34 and the sliding base 35. At the same time, the position of the nut 310 on the screw 39 can be adjusted. Through the contact between the nut 310 and the pressing rod 38, the pressing pressure of the pressing end 391 is locked, thereby locking the sliding base 35 and the slide rail 34, realizing the fixed position of the dense busbar trough 21 and preventing it from shifting during operation. When unlocking, rotating the operating handle 313 in the opposite direction will cause the pressing end 391 to disengage from the fixing hole 342.

[0020] Working Principle: During operation, external power is input to the distribution busbar 2, which consists of multiple sets of compact busbar trunking 21, via the starting box 22. High current is transmitted with low loss through the dense copper busbars, and then the power is distributed to the IT equipment in the data center cabinet 1 by the plug-in box 23. When the busbar position needs to be adjusted, there is no need to remove the bolts. Simply push the handle 36, and the sliding base 35 will slide flexibly along the U-shaped groove of the slide rail 34. The mounting plate 351 drives the compact busbar trunking 21 to move synchronously to adapt to the new power distribution layout. After the position is determined, turn the operating handle 313 to drive the locking part to work. The rotating part 311 causes the pressing rod 38 to rotate through the hinge part 312, pushing the screw 39 and the pressing end 391 to insert into the fixing hole 342 of the slide rail 34 and the sliding base 35. The nut 310 locks the pressing pressure, realizing the reliable locking of the sliding base 35 and the slide rail 34. This not only ensures the stability of the busbar position, but also avoids the cumbersome disassembly and assembly and structural damage of traditional rigid fastening.

[0021] The sliding structure of assembly component 3 overcomes the limitations of traditional rigid fastening, allowing the busbar position to be flexibly adjusted according to the development of the data center without removing bolts, reducing maintenance difficulty and the risk of structural damage. The mechanical locking structure of the locking part provides reliable fixation after adjustment, ensuring the stability of the busbar position during operation. The combined effect of these three components not only meets the efficiency and stability requirements of power distribution at the end of the data center, but also solves the shortcomings of traditional installation methods in terms of flexibility, adapting to the long-term development and dynamic changes of the data center.

[0022] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
