[0025] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the water pump mounting device provided in this application is used to install the water pump 100 into the interior of the cabinet 200, including: The first positioning structure 300 is used to support and limit the water pump 100. The second positioning structure 210 is used to be installed inside the cabinet 200. The first positioning structure 300 and the second positioning structure 210 are slidably engaged so that the first positioning structure 300 can be pushed into or pulled out of the cabinet 200 in the first direction. The third positioning structure 220 is installed inside the cabinet 200 and is used to limit the extreme position of the first positioning structure 300 so as to limit the water pump 100 to the target installation position.

[0026] The first positioning structure 300 is independent of the cabinet 200 and can be a plate-like or frame-like structure adapted to the shape of the water pump 100. It can be set on the periphery or one side of the water pump 100. The first positioning structure 300 is connected to the water pump 100 by multiple bolts to ensure that the water pump 100 and the first positioning structure 300 move synchronously. The second positioning structure 210 is a guide mechanism adapted to the first positioning structure 300 and is set inside the cabinet 200, such as on the side wall of the cabinet 200. The first positioning structure 300 and the second positioning structure 210 are slidably engaged. The second positioning structure 210 is arranged along a first direction so that the first positioning structure 300 can be pushed in or pulled out of the cabinet 200 along the first direction, thereby allowing the water pump 100 to be pushed in or pulled out of the cabinet 200 along the first direction for installation or removal and maintenance of the water pump 100.

[0027] The third positioning structure 220 is a limiting component fixed inside the cabinet 200. Its installation position is located at the end of the second positioning structure 210 near the inside of the cabinet 200, corresponding to the target installation position of the water pump 100. Its structural form is a component that can mechanically block the first positioning structure 300, such as a stop, boss, or crossbeam. When the first positioning structure 300 pushes the water pump 100 to its limit position along the first direction, the end of the first positioning structure 300 abuts against the third positioning structure 220, preventing further movement and thus precisely limiting the water pump 100 to the target installation position.

[0028] The second positioning structure 210 can be set at the bottom or side wall of the cabinet 200, and the first positioning structure 300 is set in conjunction with the second positioning structure 210.

[0029] The water pump installation device of this application connects the water pump 100 to the first positioning structure 300. Through the sliding cooperation between the first positioning structure 300 and the second positioning structure 210, the water pump 100 can be stably pushed into or pulled out of the cabinet 200 in the first direction without the need for lifting equipment or multiple people to assist, which is suitable for the narrow installation and maintenance space inside the cabinet 200. The third positioning structure 220 can effectively limit the excessive displacement of the water pump 100 in the first direction, so that the water pump 100 can quickly stop at the target installation position after being pushed in. The overall structure is simple and does not require complex positioning adjustment components, so that the water pump 100 can be conveniently disassembled and accurately positioned. It realizes the integration of stable support, smooth sliding and accurate positioning of the water pump 100 installation, which significantly reduces the operation difficulty of water pump 100 maintenance and improves maintenance efficiency.

[0030] The first positioning structure 300 has a first positioning end, a second positioning end, and a third positioning end 310. The first and second positioning ends are used to guide the water pump 100 to move in a first direction, and the third positioning end 310 is used to limit the excessive displacement of the water pump 100.

[0031] The first and second positioning ends can be points of contact between the first positioning structure 300 and the second positioning structure 210, or lines or surfaces of contact with the second positioning structure 210. When the first and second positioning ends are points, the line connecting the two points is perpendicular to the straight line of the first direction. Alternatively, when the first and second positioning ends are lines or surfaces, the planes of the first and second positioning ends are parallel to the first direction. The first and second positioning ends are used to ensure that the first positioning structure 300 moves accurately along the first direction without deviation under the guidance of the first and second positioning ends, thus preventing the water pump 100 from laterally shifting along the width direction during sliding. The third positioning end 310 can be any of the points, lines, or surfaces of contact with the cabinet 200, and it restricts the transition displacement of the first positioning structure 300 by abutting against the third positioning structure 220. When the third positioning end 310 is a line or surface, its plane intersects the plane of the first direction. When the water pump 100 is pushed into the cabinet 200 to the target position in the first direction, the third positioning end 310 will abut against the third positioning structure 220, thereby restricting the water pump 100 from being pushed in further and avoiding excessive displacement that could cause the water pump 100 to collide with internal components or pipes of the cabinet 200.

[0032] The three positioning ends have a clear division of labor. The first and second positioning ends restrict lateral movement to ensure accurate sliding direction and prevent water pump 100 from deviating. The third positioning end 310 restricts excessive displacement and enables water pump 100 to stop quickly at the target position without additional positioning adjustment.

[0033] Combination Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the first positioning structure 300 includes a pulley 320 with a first groove, and the second positioning structure 210 is a guide rail arranged along a first direction. The guide rail has a raised structure that is embedded in the first groove, and the pulley 320 slides within the guide rail. The pulley 320 can be connected to the water pump 100 via a connecting bracket or a rotating shaft. Alternatively, the first positioning structure 300 includes a mounting plate, with the water pump 100 mounted on one side of the mounting plate and the pulley 320 mounted on the other side of the mounting plate via a connecting bracket or a rotating shaft. When the first groove of the pulley 320 is aligned with the raised structure of the guide rail and embedded, the guide rail provides radial restraint to the pulley 320, preventing it from detaching from the guide rail. When the first positioning structure 300 is pushed, the pulley 320 rotates around the rotating shaft and rolls along the length of the guide rail, causing the first positioning structure 300 and the water pump 100 to move smoothly along the first direction, achieving push-in or pull-out.

[0034] Specifically, the two inner sides of the first groove on the pulley 320 are the first positioning end and the second positioning end, respectively, which can effectively prevent the pulley 320 from detaching from the guide rail during rolling and ensure the stability of the sliding process. The left and right end faces of each pulley 320 are the first positioning end and the second positioning end, respectively. When the mounting base is pushed or pulled, the pulley 320 rolls along the length of the guide rail, driving the mounting base and the water pump 100 to move smoothly in the first direction, realizing the pushing in or pulling out of the water pump 100. The rolling cooperation between the pulley 320 and the guide rail significantly reduces frictional resistance, improving operational convenience. The groove structure cooperates with the protruding structure of the guide rail to effectively limit the pulley 320, preventing it from detaching from the guide rail and ensuring the stability of the sliding process, adapting to the frequent disassembly and assembly needs of the water pump 100 over a long period.

[0035] In some embodiments, the first positioning structure 300 includes a mounting base, one side of which is used to mount the water pump 100. The second positioning structure 210 is a second groove disposed inside the cabinet 200. At least a portion of the first positioning structure 300 is adapted to be embedded in the second groove and is capable of sliding relative to the second groove along a first direction. By adapting the two side edges of the mounting base to be embedded in the second groove, and the sidewall of the mounting base abutting against the inner wall of the second groove, pushing or pulling the mounting base along the first direction can drive the water pump 100 to slide along the second groove, thereby achieving push-in or pull-out.

[0036] It is understood that the third positioning end 310 is the end of the mounting base facing away from the entrance of the cabinet 200. The first positioning structure 300 includes a mounting base, the water pump 100 is mounted on one side of the mounting base, and the other side of the mounting base is slidably engaged with the second groove of the second positioning structure 210. At least a portion of the first positioning structure 300 is adapted to be embedded in the second groove. The mounting base has at least two first positioning ends and a second positioning end. When the first positioning end and the second positioning end are points, the line connecting the two points is perpendicular to the straight line of the first direction. When the first positioning end and the second positioning end are lines or end faces, the planes they are located in are parallel to the first direction. The first positioning end and the second positioning end contact the side wall of the second groove and guide the movement of the mounting base along the first direction. The third positioning end 310 partially abuts against the cabinet 200 and can limit the transition displacement of the mounting base.

[0037] It is understandable that the pulley 320 is mounted on the side of the mounting base near the second positioning structure 210 via a connecting bracket, or the pulley 320 is directly mounted on the water pump 100 via a connecting bracket. When the pulley 320 is mounted on the side of the mounting base near the second positioning structure 210, the third positioning end 310 is mounted on the mounting base; when the pulley 320 is directly mounted on the water pump 100 via a connecting bracket, the third positioning end 310 is mounted on the connecting bracket.

[0038] In some other embodiments, the first positioning structure 300 is a mounting base, which can be wholly or at least partially adapted to be embedded in the second groove of the second positioning structure 210, and the first positioning structure 300 and the second positioning structure 210 are in surface contact.

[0039] In some other embodiments, the first positioning structure 300 and the second positioning structure 210 form a sliding pair through a concave-convex fit. For example, the first positioning structure 300 is provided with a protrusion structure, and the second positioning structure 210 is provided with a corresponding sliding groove. The protrusion is embedded in the sliding groove and can move along the length direction of the sliding groove, thereby driving the water pump 100 to push into or pull out of the cabinet 200 in the first direction; or the second positioning structure 210 is provided with a protrusion structure.

[0040] In some other embodiments, the two sides of the mounting base of the first positioning structure 300 abut against the second groove of the second positioning structure 210. It is understood that the portion of the mounting base abutting against the second groove is part of an arc, such as a circular or elliptical plate. The first and second positioning ends are the lines abutting against the second groove, and the planes of the first and second positioning ends are parallel to the first direction. The portion of the mounting base abutting against the second groove is a point. For example, if inclined pointed structures are provided on the left and right sides of the mounting base, with angles at the left and right ends of their cross-sections, then the first and second positioning ends are the points abutting against the second groove. It is understood that adjustable screws for abutting against the second groove are provided on the left and right sides of the mounting base, and the first and second positioning ends are the points abutting against the second groove. When the first and second positioning ends are the points abutting against the second groove, the line connecting the two points is perpendicular to the straight line of the first direction.

[0041] In some embodiments, the third positioning structure 220 includes a stop portion disposed inside the cabinet 200. The stop portion is used to limit the extreme position of the first positioning structure 300 to limit the water pump 100 to the target installation position.

[0042] A stop is provided at the target installation position of the water pump 100. The stop has a positioning hole, and a positioning pin 311 is provided at the third positioning end 310. The positioning pin 311 is inserted into the positioning hole. The positioning pin 311 is welded or threaded onto the third positioning end 310 of the first positioning structure 300. At the target installation position of the water pump 100 inside the cabinet 200, such as on the stop block abutting the third positioning end 310 or on the crossbeam of the cabinet 200, a corresponding positioning hole is provided. The diameter of the positioning hole is adapted to the positioning pin. When the water pump 100 is pushed into the target position, the third positioning end 310 abuts against part of the cabinet 200, and the positioning pin 311 is inserted into the positioning hole, forming a plug-in fit.

[0043] Alternatively, the stop may include a locating pin positioned at the target installation location of the water pump 100, with a locating hole provided at the third locating end 310, into which the locating pin is inserted. The locating pin 311 is inserted into the locating hole, forming a plug-in fit.

[0044] The insertion and removal of the positioning pin 311 and the positioning hole form a secondary positioning, which can effectively prevent the water pump 100 from shifting due to vibration of the cabinet 200 or external force after installation, and further improve the stability of the water pump 100 installation.

[0045] Furthermore, the end of the positioning pin 311 used for insertion into the positioning hole is set as a pointed tip, which serves as a guide and facilitates the insertion of the positioning pin 311 into the positioning hole.

[0046] In some embodiments, the mounting base is provided with a handle 330 for pushing in or pulling out the first positioning structure 300. The handle 330 is fixed to the mounting base by welding or bolting. The handle 330 is located near the inlet side of the cabinet 200 where the water pump 100 is pushed in. When the water pump needs to be disassembled or assembled, the operator holds the handle and pushes forward or pulls backward in a first direction, which causes the mounting base and the water pump 100 to slide in or out along the first direction. The handle 330 provides the operator with a clear point of force application.

[0047] This application also provides a liquid cooling device, including the water pump 100 mounting device as described above. The cabinet 200 serves as the mounting carrier for the liquid cooling device, and has internal installation space and a fixing structure. The water pump 100 can be detachably installed inside the cabinet 200 via the water pump mounting device. The water pump mounting device facilitates the quick and accurate installation of the water pump 100. When maintenance is required, the fixing structure can be released, and the water pump 100 can be pulled out of the cabinet 200 for repair. After repair, it can be pushed back into position and fixed, quickly restoring equipment operation. The stable positioning and fixing structure of the water pump mounting device ensures the reliability of the water pump 100's operation, reducing problems such as pipe leakage and system failure caused by water pump 100 displacement or vibration, and improving the overall operational stability and service life of the liquid cooling device.

[0048] In some embodiments, the liquid cooling equipment includes a connection structure, and the cabinet 200 has a delivery pipeline for delivering cooling medium inside, and the connection structure is used to connect the delivery pipeline and the water pump 100.

[0049] The connecting structure is used to install the water pump 100 at the target installation location, and is used to detachably fix the water pump 100 to the target installation location. The connecting structure is fixedly installed inside the cabinet 200 at the target installation location of the water pump 100, and its installation height is adapted to the connection position of the water pump 100 to ensure that the water pump 100 can accurately fit with the connecting structure after being positioned. For example, a detachable fit is achieved through buckles, locking parts, threaded connections, etc., to ensure that the water pump 100 can be firmly fixed after being positioned, and can be pushed and pulled simply by releasing the fixing during disassembly and assembly.

[0050] In some embodiments, the connection structure includes a clamp 250, the water pump 100 has a water pump outlet pipe 110, and a cabinet water inlet pipe 230 is provided in the cabinet 200 corresponding to the water pump outlet pipe 110. The cabinet water inlet pipe 230 is plugged into the water pump outlet pipe 110. The clamp 250 is provided at the part where the water pump outlet pipe 110 and the cabinet water inlet pipe 230 are plugged into, and the clamp 250 is used to prevent the water pump outlet pipe 110 and the cabinet water inlet pipe 230 from separating from each other.

[0051] The connection structure includes a cabinet water inlet pipe 230 and a clamp 250. The cabinet water inlet pipe 230 is used to be installed at the target installation position of the water pump 100. The clamp is installed at one end of the cabinet water inlet pipe 230 for connection. The cabinet water inlet pipe 230 is used to connect with the water pump outlet pipe 110 of the water pump 100. The clamp 250 is detachably fitted at the connection between the cabinet water inlet pipe 230 and the water pump outlet pipe 110. The cabinet water inlet pipe 230 is connected to the water pump outlet pipe 110, and the water pump 100 delivers material to the cabinet water inlet pipe 230. The clamp 250 is a quick-release clamp, such as a retaining clamp, which can be detachably fitted onto the outside of the connecting end of the water inlet pipe 230 of the server rack. When the water pump outlet pipe 110 is connected to the water inlet pipe 230 of the server rack, the clamp 250 is fitted onto the connection point of the two and locked to achieve fixation; releasing the clamp 250 from its locked state allows the water inlet pipe 230 of the server rack to be separated from the water pump outlet pipe 110. The clamp 250 can be locked and unlocked without tools, making it convenient to operate and suitable for the operation requirements of the narrow space inside the server rack 200.

[0052] In some embodiments, the connection structure includes a first connection part 120, a second connection part 240, and bolts. The water pump 100 has a water pump inlet pipe, and a cabinet outlet pipe is provided in the cabinet corresponding to the water pump inlet pipe. The first connection part 120 is provided on the water pump inlet pipe, the second connection part 240 is provided on the cabinet outlet pipe, and the bolts are used to connect the first connection part 120 and the second connection part 240.

[0053] Specifically, the second connecting part 240 is a structure fixed inside the cabinet 200. The first connecting part 120 and the second connecting part 240 each have at least two mounting holes through which bolts pass. The bolt's threaded portion remains exposed. The bolt is fixed in the mounting hole by welding or threading, with the bolt's threaded portion extending towards the water pump 100 and remaining exposed. When the water pump 100 is pushed into the target position, the first connecting part 120 aligns with the bolt's threaded portion, which passes through the mounting hole. The mounting holes can all be threaded holes; alternatively, they can be fixed by tightening nuts. During disassembly, the water pump 100 can be pulled out by unscrewing the nuts or hand-tightening the bolts. The bolt structure is simple, low-cost, and highly versatile, assisting in the precise positioning of the water pump 100 and adapting to most first connecting parts 120.

[0054] Specifically, the first connecting part 120 is a flange installed on the water pump 100, and the second connecting part 240 is a matching flange that mates with the flange of the water pump 100. The matching flange is used to install the water pump 100 at its target mounting position within the cabinet 200. The matching flange has at least two circumferentially distributed mounting holes, through which bolts pass, with the bolt threads exposed and facing the water pump 100. The central through-hole of the matching flange communicates with the piping of the liquid cooling system. The matching flange connects to the flange of the water pump 100, and its central through-hole communicates with the central through-hole of the flange of the water pump 100, for conveying substances to the water pump 100. The matching flange assists in the precise positioning of the water pump 100, and also stabilizes the water pump 100. The mating of the bolts and the flange holes achieves precise positioning and fixation of the water pump 100.

Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
