Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of data equipment technology, and specifically relates to a storage server. Background Technology

[0002] A storage server is a computer server specifically designed for data storage and management. Its core objective is to provide large-capacity, highly reliable storage space and optimize data read and write performance. Through hard disk arrays (such as RAID), high-speed network interfaces, and storage management software, it meets the data storage needs of enterprises or large-scale operations. With the increasing demands of modern data centers for a balance between maintainability, reliability, and energy efficiency in storage servers, storage servers have begun to adopt modular designs (such as independent main control, heat dissipation, and power supply units) to support hot-swapping. This allows for quick replacement in case of failure, convenient maintenance, and reduced downtime.

[0003] In the existing technology, the modular heat dissipation unit of the storage server adopts a long strip frame distributed along the edge of the casing. The airflow direction of its cooling fan is parallel to the main control unit (rather than directly towards the heat source). It cannot directly extract heat from the heat source and needs to dissipate it through natural conduction and lateral airflow. The heat dissipation path is long and inefficient, which may lead to heat accumulation and a decrease in local heat dissipation efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a storage server that uses a cooling fan directly facing the main control module to draw heat away from the heat source area, avoiding the problems of heat accumulation caused by the bypassing of traditional parallel airflow. The L-shaped air duct guides the hot air to be discharged through the exhaust port. The air duct is closed-loop and has a short path, which can quickly reduce the heat retention inside, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency and achieving efficient heat dissipation in a compact space.

[0005] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A storage server includes a main control module located in the middle of the server body: heat dissipation modules are symmetrically and movably connected to both sides of the main control module; The heat dissipation module includes: a pluggable frame with several exhaust vents on its top; Several cooling fans are fixed at equal intervals on the side of the plug-in frame closest to the main control module, with the air intake side facing the main control module; An L-shaped duct is installed on the exhaust side of the cooling fan and is fixedly and sealed to the exhaust port.

[0006] The plug-in frame is a hollow cuboid with one side through, and a fixing frame is provided inside along the axial direction.

[0007] The L-shaped duct is connected to the cooling fan by fasteners, and its bent end adopts a rounded transition structure.

[0008] The number of exhaust vents is matched with the number of cooling fans.

[0009] The plug-in frame is fixedly connected at equal intervals to several diverter plates on the air intake side of the cooling fan.

[0010] A detachable dustproof net is provided on the top of the server body at the outlet of the L-shaped air duct bend; One end of the L-shaped duct is simultaneously fixedly welded to the fixed frame.

[0011] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows: by having the cooling fan directly facing the main control module, heat is directly drawn away from the heat source area, avoiding the problems of traditional parallel airflow and heat accumulation. The L-shaped air duct guides the hot air to be discharged through the exhaust port. The air duct is closed-loop and has a short path, which can quickly reduce the heat retention inside, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency and achieving efficient heat dissipation in a compact space.

[0014] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0015] like Figures 1-4As shown, a storage server includes a main control module 101 located in the middle of the server body 1. Heat dissipation modules are symmetrically and movably connected to both sides of the main control module 101. Each heat dissipation module includes: a pluggable frame 102 with several exhaust vents 106 on its top; the pluggable frame 102 is a hollow cuboid with one side through-holes; a fixing frame 103 is provided inside along its axial direction; several cooling fans 104 are equidistantly fixed to the side of the pluggable frame 102 near the main control module 101, with the air intake side facing the main control module 101; and an L-shaped duct 10. 5. Located on the exhaust side of the cooling fan 104 and fixedly and sealed to the exhaust port 106, the L-shaped air duct 105 is connected to the cooling fan 104 by fasteners, and its bent end adopts an arc transition structure; the number of exhaust ports 106 matches the number of cooling fans 104, and one end of the L-shaped air duct 105 is simultaneously fixedly welded to the fixed frame 103. The plug-in frame 102 is located on the air intake side of the cooling fan 104 and is fixedly connected with several diverter plates 107 at equal intervals. A detachable dustproof net 108 is provided on the top of the server body 1 at the outlet of the bent end of the L-shaped air duct 105.

[0016] According to the above structure, when the main control module 101 generates heat, the surrounding air will heat up. The cooling fan 104 is started by electricity, and it directly draws hot air from the heat source with negative pressure on the air intake side facing the main control module 101. There is no need to wait for the hot air to be naturally conducted to the air duct. The hot air can be directly guided into the L-shaped air duct 105 and discharged vertically upward from the horizontal direction. Compared with the traditional long air duct, the L-shaped air duct 105 has a shorter path and less hot air stay time. The bending end of the L-shaped air duct 105 adopts an arc design to reduce turbulence and wind resistance. The hot air is finally discharged through the exhaust port 106, while the cold air is replenished from other air intakes of the server, such as the bottom or side, forming a circulation. Furthermore, the fixing frame 103 provides structural support for the connection between the cooling fan 104 and the L-shaped air duct 105, ensuring a stable airflow path. The dust filter 108 covers the exhaust port 106, which can filter external dust, prevent it from entering the server, and allow hot air to be discharged. It can be fixed by magnetic attraction, clips, or bolts, making it easy to clean or replace regularly. The diverter plate 107 can divide the cross-section of the air intake side into multiple parallel channels, forcing the intake airflow to flow axially, eliminating rotating vortices, and preventing disordered gas turbulence from increasing fan noise and energy loss. The cooling fan 104 can also be disassembled periodically by pulling out the plug-in frame 102 to clean and wipe the L-shaped air duct 105.

[0017] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the main control module 101 is working and generates heat, the surrounding air will heat up. The cooling fan 104 is started by electricity. It directly draws hot air from the heat source with negative pressure on the air intake side facing the main control module 101. There is no need to wait for the hot air to be naturally conducted to the air duct. The hot air can be directly guided into the L-shaped air duct 105 and discharged vertically upward from the horizontal direction.
