Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of data center infrastructure technology, specifically to a cable management and heat dissipation device for a server rack. Background Technology

[0002] Server racks are critical infrastructure in data centers used for the centralized installation, fixation, and management of IT equipment such as servers. To ensure the stable operation of the equipment inside, existing server racks typically integrate basic cable management devices and cooling systems. A common cable management method involves fixing cable management boards or cable managers to the uprights or side panels of the rack to bundle and secure various data cables and power cables behind the servers.

[0003] However, in actual installation and maintenance, when the installation position of servers needs to be adjusted vertically within the rack according to changes in the size or number of server devices, the overall position of the dense cable bundles connected behind them will also change accordingly. Currently, the cable management devices fixed to the rack frame cannot be flexibly adjusted in height accordingly, easily leading to interference and pulling between the cables and the devices. This not only makes cable management inconvenient but may also affect connection reliability due to excessive bending or stress on the cables. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a cable management and heat dissipation device for server racks, in order to solve the problems of fixed position of cable management device in existing server racks, which cannot be adjusted in height synchronously with the server, causing interference between cables and cable management device when adjusting the server installation position, resulting in inconvenience in equipment maintenance and cable management.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cable management and heat dissipation device for a server rack, including a rack, wherein positioning plate groups are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides inside the rack, wherein one side of the positioning plate group includes two positioning plates distributed vertically, and the positioning plates are detachably connected to the rack.

[0006] The mounting frame is symmetrically and vertically installed on the positioning plate group on one side, and the server is installed on the mounting frame;

[0007] A support plate is movably connected between two mounting frames on the same side, and a height adjustment component is provided between the support plate and the mounting frame;

[0008] A cable fastener is mounted on the support plate to secure the cable.

[0009] An exhaust fan is installed on the top panel of the cabinet;

[0010] An air supply fan is installed on the left and right side panels of the cabinet to deliver external air into the cabinet.

[0011] Furthermore, the positioning plate is threadedly connected to the cabinet via a locking component, and both the positioning plate and the mounting frame are made of steel.

[0012] Furthermore, two of the mounting frames on one side are fixed with vertical guide plates facing away from each other. The outer side of the guide plates is provided with guide grooves, and the cross-section of the guide grooves is arc-shaped.

[0013] Furthermore, the cross-section of the support plate is concave and is formed by bending a metal plate. The concave openings of the support plates on both sides are opposite each other. The two vertical sections of the concave shape of the support plate are provided with positioning posts. A guide ball is movably embedded in the positioning post. Part of the spherical surface of the guide ball extends out of the positioning post and movably cooperates with the guide groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the height adjustment component includes threaded holes and wing screws. The threaded holes are vertically spaced on the mounting frame, and the wing screws are symmetrically mounted on the support plate. The wing screws pass through the support plate and are locked into the threaded holes.

[0015] Furthermore, the cable fasteners are spaced apart on the inner wall of the bearing plate, and the cable fasteners are Velcro straps, elastic buckles, or cable management rings.

[0016] Furthermore, the air supply fan is installed on the side panel of the cabinet near the bottom.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the cable management and heat dissipation device for server racks provided by this utility model integrates a movable support plate and a height adjustment component onto the mounting frame of the server rack, and is supplemented by a coordinated cooling fan layout. First, in terms of cable management and space management, the support plate serves as a unified cable management platform, and various server-related cables can be centrally and orderly fixed on it through the cable fixing components, effectively avoiding cable clutter. The height adjustment component allows the support plate to be flexibly adjusted vertically according to the server port positions and the actual cable layout requirements. This design improves the convenience and adaptability of cable management operations, while solving the inherent defects of traditional cable management devices and heat dissipation ducts interfering with each other in space and occupying effective heat dissipation space.

[0018] Secondly, in terms of heat dissipation efficiency, the device constructs a highly efficient active cooling system. The air supply fan located at the bottom of the side panel of the rack is responsible for continuously sending external cool air into the rack to cool the server. Finally, the exhaust fan at the top of the rack quickly exhausts the hot air heated by the equipment. This coordinated airflow organization enhances the airflow and heat exchange efficiency inside the rack, effectively avoiding local overheating, thereby improving the operational stability and reliability of the entire server rack.

[0027] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 As shown:

[0029] Example:

[0030] This utility model provides a cable management and heat dissipation device for a server rack, including a rack 1, which has positioning plate groups arranged symmetrically on the left and right sides inside. One side of the positioning plate group includes two positioning plates 2 distributed vertically. The positioning plates 2 are detachably connected to the rack 1.

[0031] Mounting frame 3 is symmetrically and vertically installed on the positioning plate group on one side, and server 4 is installed on the mounting frame 3;

[0032] A support plate 5 is movably connected between two mounting frames 3 on the same side, and a height adjustment component is provided between the support plate 5 and the mounting frame 3;

[0033] Cable fixing piece 6 is installed on the support plate 5 to fix the cable;

[0034] Exhaust fan 7 is installed on the top plate of the cabinet 1;

[0035] The air supply fan 8 is installed on the left and right side panels of the cabinet 1 and is used to deliver external air into the cabinet 1.

[0036] It should be noted that by integrating the movable support plate 5 and the height adjustment component onto the mounting frame 3 of the server 4 rack 1, and supplementing it with a coordinated cooling fan layout, firstly, in terms of cable management and space management, the support plate 5 serves as a unified cable management platform. Through the cable fixing brackets 6 on it, various cables related to the server 4 can be centrally and orderly fixed on it, effectively avoiding cable clutter. Secondly, the height adjustment component allows the support plate 5 to be flexibly adjusted vertically according to the port position of the server 4 and the actual cable layout requirements. This design improves the convenience and adaptability of cable management operations, while solving the inherent defects of traditional cable management devices and cooling ducts interfering with each other in space and occupying effective heat dissipation space.

[0037] Secondly, in terms of heat dissipation efficiency, the device constructs a highly efficient active cooling system. The air supply fan 8 located at the bottom of the side panel of the rack 1 is responsible for continuously sending external cold air into the rack 1 to provide cooling for the server 4. Finally, the exhaust fan 7 at the top of the rack 1 quickly exhausts the hot air heated by the equipment. This coordinated airflow organization enhances the airflow and heat exchange efficiency inside the rack 1, effectively avoiding local overheating, thereby improving the overall operational stability and reliability of the server 4 rack 1.

[0038] In this embodiment: the positioning plate 2 is threadedly connected to the cabinet 1 via the locking member 9, and the positioning plate 2 and the mounting frame 3 are made of steel.

[0039] It should be noted that the locking component 9 is preferably a bolt or screw. This structure achieves reliable fixing of the positioning plate 2 to the cabinet 1 through threaded connection, while ensuring convenient disassembly, facilitating the installation, maintenance, and position adjustment of the entire device. The positioning plate 2 and mounting frame 3, made of steel, have excellent mechanical strength and load-bearing capacity, and can stably support the weight of the server 4 and cable management device, ensuring the structural stability and safety of the equipment during long-term operation.

[0040] In this embodiment: two mounting frames 3 on one side are fixed with vertical guide plates 10 facing away from each other. The outer side of the guide plate 10 is provided with a guide groove 11, and the cross-section of the guide groove 11 is arc-shaped.

[0041] It should be noted that the guide plate 10 and guide groove 11 located on the outside of the mounting frame 3 constitute a precise guiding mechanism for the lifting and lowering movement of the bearing plate 5. The arc-shaped cross-section of the guide groove 11 can form a good fit with the guide ball 13, evenly distributing the gravity and vibration load on the bearing plate 5, effectively preventing the bearing plate 5 from tilting or jamming during lifting and lowering, ensuring its smooth and stable movement, and providing a reliable structural foundation for achieving precise height adjustment.

[0042] In this embodiment: the cross-section of the bearing plate 5 is concave and is formed by bending a metal plate. The concave openings of the bearing plate 5 on both sides are opposite each other. The two vertical sections of the concave shape of the bearing plate 5 are provided with positioning posts 12. A guide ball 13 is movably embedded in the positioning post 12. Part of the spherical surface of the guide ball 13 extends out of the positioning post 12 and movably cooperates with the guide groove 11.

[0043] It should be noted that the concave structure of the support plate 5 provides sufficient structural strength while naturally creating space for accommodating and organizing cables. The concave opening facing the guide plate 10 makes the entire structure more compact. The design of the positioning post 12 and the guide ball 13 transforms sliding friction into rolling friction, reducing frictional resistance during adjustment of the support plate 5 and allowing for easy height adjustment with one hand. The cooperation between the guide ball 13 and the arc-shaped guide groove 11 ensures guiding accuracy while allowing for a certain degree of self-adjustment, improving the device's tolerance to different installation errors.

[0044] In this embodiment: the height adjustment component includes threaded holes 14 and wing screws 15. The threaded holes 14 are vertically spaced on the mounting frame 3, and the wing screws 15 are symmetrically installed on the support plate 5. The wing screws 15 pass through the support plate 5 and are locked into the threaded holes 14.

[0045] It should be noted that this height adjustment component uses a combination of threaded holes 14 and wing screws 15. The vertically spaced threaded holes 14 provide multiple reliable fixing positions, allowing the support plate 5 to be precisely positioned at different heights. The wing screws 15 are designed for easy manual operation, requiring no special tools for tightening and loosening, thus improving the efficiency of cable management and maintenance. The symmetrical arrangement of the wing screws 15 ensures balanced force on the support plate 5, preventing uneven loading caused by unilateral fixing and guaranteeing the stability and reliability of the device.

[0046] In this embodiment: the cable fixing components 6 are distributed at intervals on the inner wall of the bearing plate 5, and the cable fixing components 6 are Velcro straps, elastic buckles or cable management rings.

[0047] It should be noted that the spaced cable fasteners 6 can classify and secure cables of different types and quantities, preventing them from becoming tangled or crossing. Multiple types of cable fasteners 6 are available to adapt the device to various application scenarios: Velcro cable ties are suitable for binding cable bundles of varying thicknesses and offer flexible adjustment; elastic clips facilitate quick installation and removal of individual cables; and cable management rings provide better protection at cable bends, preventing excessive bending. This diverse securing method significantly improves the standardization and reliability of cable management.

[0048] In this embodiment, the air supply fan 8 is installed on the side panel of the cabinet 1 near the bottom.

[0049] It should be noted that placing the supply fan 8 near the bottom of the side panel of the rack 1 conforms to the thermodynamic principle that cold air sinks and hot air rises, thus most effectively delivering cold air into the equipment's air intake area. This arrangement, together with the exhaust fan 7 at the top, forms an orderly airflow path from bottom to top, avoiding airflow short-circuiting and mixing of hot and cold air. It ensures that cold air flows fully over the heat-generating components of the server 4 before being exhausted, significantly improving heat dissipation efficiency while reducing fan energy consumption.

[0050] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
