Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of server rack technology, specifically to a base and server rack. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, forklift holes are usually provided on the base of the outdoor cabinet to facilitate its handling. When moving the cabinet, the forklift forks pass through the forklift holes to lift the cabinet.

[0003] However, as the size of the cabinet continues to increase, the span of the front and rear beams or left and right beams of its base increases accordingly. When the forklift forks enter the forklift hole, the forks are prone to tilting upwards during movement due to the large span, which can cause the bottom plate of the cabinet to collide with the forks, resulting in deformation and damage to the bottom plate of the cabinet. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, this application provides a base and cabinet to solve or improve the problem that the forklift forks are prone to collide with the bottom plate of the cabinet when lifting the cabinet.

[0005] In a first aspect, this application provides a base, including a frame body and a limiting member. The frame body has an inner cavity, and the top of the frame body along a first direction is used to support the bottom plate of a cabinet. The frame body has multiple side walls, and at least one side wall of the frame body is provided with a forklift hole for a forklift fork to enter. The limiting member is disposed in the inner cavity and connected to the frame body. The limiting member is at least partially used to pad between the fork and the bottom plate of the cabinet, and the limiting member extends along the forklift hole's entry path direction.

[0006] Beneficial effects: By setting a limiting member in the inner cavity of the frame body, with at least a portion of the limiting member located between the forklift hole and the base plate, when the forklift fork enters the inner cavity through the forklift hole, the fork can be restricted by the limiting member, making it difficult for the fork to move towards the base plate, thereby preventing the fork from contacting and colliding with the base plate and avoiding deformation and damage to the base plate.

[0007] In one alternative embodiment, the limiting member has a bottom surface and a top surface disposed opposite to each other along the first direction, and the bottom surface of the limiting member is flush with the top surface of the forklift hole in the first direction.

[0008] Beneficial effects: By setting the bottom surface of the limiting component flush with the top surface of the forklift hole, after the fork passes through the forklift hole, the height of the fork tilting upward under the action of the bottom surface of the limiting component is unlikely to exceed the top surface of the forklift hole, thereby improving the limiting effect on the fork and ensuring that a safe gap is always maintained between the fork and the base plate.

[0009] In one alternative embodiment, the extension trajectory of the limiting member coincides with the middle position of the forklift hole.

[0010] Beneficial effects: The bottom surface of the limiting component can serve as an extension of the top surface of the forklift hole in the horizontal direction. The limiting component is centrally located, which makes it easy for the fork body to correspond with the limiting component in the first direction when it is inserted into the forklift hole. This can prevent the limiting component from failing due to misalignment between the fork body and the limiting component.

[0011] In one alternative embodiment, the top surface of the limiting member is used to connect with the base plate.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The limiting component not only restricts the fork body, ensuring a safe clearance between the fork body and the base plate, but also supports the base plate, improving its installation and support strength.

[0013] In one optional embodiment, the frame body includes two crossbeams arranged opposite each other, and two longitudinal beams connected between the two crossbeams and arranged opposite each other; the forklift hole includes a first forklift hole, and the side walls of the two crossbeams are respectively provided with the first forklift hole arranged opposite each other, and the two ends of the limiting member are respectively connected to the two crossbeams.

[0014] Beneficial effects: First forklift holes are arranged on two opposing crossbeams. Forks can enter through the first forklift hole on one crossbeam and extend through the first forklift hole on the other crossbeam, allowing the forklift to support both crossbeams simultaneously. This avoids localized deformation caused by concentrated force on a single crossbeam during cabinet handling. Simultaneously, the two ends of the limiting components are connected to the two crossbeams respectively, acting as reinforcing ribs, significantly improving the overall strength of the base, reducing the risk of deformation, and extending the base's service life.

[0015] In one optional embodiment, the forklift hole further includes a second forklift hole, and the two longitudinal beams are respectively provided with the second forklift holes arranged opposite to each other, and the two ends of the limiting member are respectively connected to the two longitudinal beams.

[0016] Beneficial effects: Forklift holes are provided on both the crossbeams and longitudinal beams, allowing operators to easily select either the first or second forklift hole to insert the forks, thus improving the ease of use of the handling cabinet. Furthermore, the limiting components are connected to the two longitudinal beams at both ends, further enhancing the overall strength of the base.

[0017] In one optional embodiment, the inner cavity is provided with an intersecting first reinforcing beam and a second reinforcing beam. The two ends of the first reinforcing beam are respectively connected to the two crossbeams, and the second reinforcing beam is connected to the longitudinal beam. The first reinforcing beam and the second reinforcing beam are respectively provided with through holes, and the through holes are corresponding to the forklift holes.

[0018] Beneficial effects: Arranging the first and second reinforcing beams in the inner cavity can further enhance the strength of the base. Furthermore, as the forklift forks pass through the forklift hole and the through hole sequentially during insertion, the forks are constrained and supported by different beams along their movement path, further preventing the forks from tilting.

[0019] In one optional embodiment, a plurality of limiting members are provided, including intersecting first limiting members and second limiting members. The extension direction of the first limiting member is parallel to the crossbeam and intersects with the first reinforcing beam. The extension direction of the second limiting member is parallel to the longitudinal beam and intersects with the second reinforcing beam.

[0020] Beneficial effects: By setting the first and second limiting components, when the fork is inserted into the inner cavity from a direction parallel to the crossbeam or from a direction parallel to the longitudinal beam, the limiting components will limit the fork, making it less likely for the fork to tilt up. Furthermore, the intersecting first and second limiting components work together to form a grid-like structure, effectively improving the overall strength of the base.

[0021] In one alternative embodiment, the limiting member is an elongated structure; and / or, the limiting member is provided with a hollow cavity.

[0022] Beneficial effects: The elongated structure of the limiting component allows for a smaller cross-sectional size while maintaining the fork's position, thus reducing the space occupied and material usage. The hollow cavity in the limiting component further reduces its weight and material consumption, thereby lowering manufacturing costs.

[0023] Secondly, this application provides a cabinet, including a cabinet body and a base as described in any of the above claims, wherein the cabinet body is placed on the base.

[0024] Beneficial effects: The cabinet has the aforementioned base, and a limiting component is set in the frame body of the base. When the fork of the fork is inserted into the inner cavity through the forklift hole, the fork can be restricted by the limiting component, making it difficult for the fork to move towards the bottom plate, preventing the fork from contacting and colliding with the bottom plate, avoiding deformation and damage to the bottom plate, thereby making the cabinet less prone to damage and extending the service life of the cabinet.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] The following is combined Figures 1 to 5 This describes an embodiment of the present application.

[0030] According to an embodiment of this application, in a first aspect, this application provides a base, including a frame body 1 and a limiting member 3. The frame body 1 is provided with an inner cavity 101, and the top of the frame body 1 along a first direction Z is used to support the bottom plate 200 of the cabinet 100. The frame body 1 has multiple side walls, and at least one side wall of the frame body 1 is provided with a forklift hole 2 for the forklift fork to enter. The limiting member 3 is disposed in the inner cavity 101 and connected to the frame body 1. The limiting member 3 is at least partially used to pad between the fork and the bottom plate 200 of the cabinet 100, and the limiting member 3 extends along the forklift hole 2 in the forklift entry path direction.

[0031] First, it should be noted that, as Figure 2As shown, the first direction Z mentioned above refers to the vertical direction of the cabinet during normal use, which can also be described as the height direction of the cabinet. The bottom surface and top surface mentioned below are relative positions in the height direction, that is, the top surface is located above the bottom surface in the height direction.

[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the base mainly includes a frame body 1, which can be formed by welding or fastening metal profiles to create a rectangular frame structure with an inner cavity 101. Forklift holes 2 are provided on one or more side walls of the frame body 1, and preferably, there are at least two forklift holes 2 on the same side wall, so that the spaced forklift holes 2 correspond to different forks of a forklift. The forklift holes 2 allow the forklift forks to horizontally insert into the inner cavity 101, and during the handling of the cabinet, the forks contact the frame body 1 to achieve a lifting operation.

[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, the top of the frame body 1 along the first direction Z is used to install and support the base plate 200 of the cabinet 100. The base plate 200 can be located outside the inner cavity 101, specifically installed on the top surface of the frame body 1, supporting the base plate 200 through the top surface of the frame body 1. Alternatively, the base plate 200 can be located inside the inner cavity 101, fixed to the inner wall of the inner cavity 101, and also supported by the frame body 1. Understandably, while ensuring that the base plate 200 is positioned above the forklift hole 2 along the first direction Z, the relative position of the base plate 200 and the frame body 1 can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, a limiting member 3 is provided in the inner cavity 101. The limiting member 3 is fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the frame body 1 by means of welding or bolt connection. At least a portion of the limiting member 3 is located between the forklift hole 2 and the base plate 200 in the first direction Z. After the fork enters the inner cavity 101 through the forklift hole 2, it continues to move, so that the fork has a movement path. The limiting member 3 extends along the movement path direction of the fork.

[0035] Thus, when the cabinet needs to be moved, the forklift forks horizontally insert into the inner cavity 101 of the base through the forklift hole 2. During ideal horizontal movement, the forks and the limiting member 3 do not interfere with each other. If, due to a large base span or uneven ground, the forks tend to tilt upwards during movement, the upper surface of the forks will abut against the limiting member 3 located above them. Since the limiting member 3 is fixed to the frame body 1, it effectively prevents the forks from tilting further, making it difficult for them to continue moving towards the base plate 200, thereby preventing the forks from contacting and colliding with the base plate 200 and avoiding deformation and damage to the base plate 200.

[0036] Understandably, most cabinets have a base to support the cabinet 100. The base in this embodiment is suitable for both outdoor and indoor cabinets. Furthermore, the cabinet can be an energy storage cabinet, signal cabinet, or power distribution cabinet, or other cabinet structures that require a base.

[0037] In one embodiment, the limiting member 3 has a bottom surface and a top surface that are disposed opposite to each other along the first direction Z, and the bottom surface of the limiting member 3 is flush with the top surface of the forklift hole 2 in the first direction Z.

[0038] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the limiting member 3 can be a rod or a plate, giving it a bottom surface and a top surface in the first direction Z. The bottom surface of the limiting member 3 is at the same or nearly the same height as the top surface of the forklift hole 2 in the first direction Z. When the fork passes horizontally through the forklift hole 2 and enters the inner cavity 101, there is only a small gap between the upper surface of the fork and the top surface of the forklift hole 2. Since the bottom surface of the limiting member 3 is flush with the top surface of the forklift hole 2, it is equivalent to extending the top surface of the forklift hole 2 horizontally into the inner cavity 101 through the limiting member 3.

[0039] With this configuration, when the fork tends to tilt upwards, the tilted part of the fork will be blocked by the bottom surface of the limiting member 3 at the same height, ensuring that the maximum height of the fork tilting upwards is limited to the height of the top surface of the forklift hole 2, thereby improving the limiting effect on the fork and ensuring that a safe gap is always maintained between the fork and the base plate 200.

[0040] In one embodiment, in order to further enhance the limiting effect of the limiting member 3 on the fork body, the extension trajectory of the limiting member 3 coincides with the middle position of the forklift hole 2.

[0041] Understandable, such as Figure 1 As shown, in some cases, to facilitate the fork's insertion into the forklift hole 2, the width of the forklift hole 2 is greater than the width of the fork. The extension trajectory of the limiting member 3 is aligned with the center position of the forklift hole 2. Thus, even if the fork's insertion position deviates from the center position of the forklift hole 2 after the fork has inserted into it, the limiting member 3 can still correspond to the fork in the first direction Z, thereby preventing misalignment between the fork and the limiting member 3 and the limiting member 3 from failing to limit its position.

[0042] In one embodiment, the top surface of the limiting member 3 is used to connect with the base plate 200.

[0043] In this embodiment, the lower surface of the base plate 200 is attached to the top surface of the limiting member 3, and the base plate 200 and the top surface of the limiting member 3 can be fixed by welding or bolt connection. In this way, the limiting member 3 can not only limit the fork body, ensuring that a safe gap is always maintained between the fork body and the base plate 200, but also support the base plate 200, improving the installation strength and support strength of the base plate 200.

[0044] Optionally, when the base plate 200 is installed on the top surface of the frame body 1, the top surface of the limiting member 3 can be flush with the top surface of the frame body 1 in the first direction Z, so that the top surface of the frame body 1 and the top surface of the limiting member 3 cooperate to support the base plate 200. When the base plate 200 is installed in the inner cavity 101, the top surface of the limiting member 3 is lower than the top surface of the frame body 1 in the first direction Z, so that the top surface of the limiting member 3 can also support the base plate 200.

[0045] In one embodiment, the frame body 1 includes two crossbeams 102 arranged opposite to each other, and two longitudinal beams 103 connected between the two crossbeams 102 and arranged opposite to each other; the forklift hole 2 includes a first forklift hole 21, and the side walls of the two crossbeams 102 are respectively provided with the first forklift hole 21 arranged opposite to each other, and the two ends of the limiting member 3 are respectively connected to the two crossbeams 102.

[0046] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, two crossbeams 102 and two longitudinal beams 103 work together to enclose the inner cavity 101. On the side walls of the two crossbeams 102, first forklift holes 21 are respectively provided. The fork can be inserted through the first forklift hole 21 on one crossbeam 102 and extended through the first forklift hole 21 on the other crossbeam 102, so that the forklift can support the two crossbeams 102 at the same time, avoiding local deformation caused by the force being concentrated on a single crossbeam 102 during the handling of the cabinet.

[0047] A limiting member 3 is fixedly connected between the two crossbeams 102, so that the limiting member 3 not only plays a limiting role above the fork body to prevent it from tilting, but also acts as a reinforcing rib to connect the two crossbeams 102, which significantly improves the overall strength of the base, reduces the risk of deformation of the base, and extends the service life of the base.

[0048] In one embodiment, the forklift hole 2 further includes a second forklift hole 22. The two longitudinal beams 103 are respectively provided with oppositely arranged second forklift holes 22, and the two ends of the limiting member 3 are respectively connected to the two longitudinal beams 103.

[0049] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, in addition to the first forklift holes 21 on the two crossbeams 102, the two longitudinal beams 103 also have second forklift holes 22, so that forklift holes 2 are provided on all four side walls of the frame body 1. The forks can be inserted in four directions of the frame body 1, improving the ease of handling the cabinet, and the two ends of the limiting member 3 are connected to the two longitudinal beams 103 respectively, further improving the overall strength of the base.

[0050] In one embodiment, the inner cavity 101 is provided with an intersecting first reinforcing beam 4 and a second reinforcing beam 5. The two ends of the first reinforcing beam 4 are respectively connected to two crossbeams 102, and the second reinforcing beam 5 is connected to the longitudinal beam 103. The first reinforcing beam 4 and the second reinforcing beam 5 are respectively provided with through holes 6, and the through holes 6 are correspondingly provided with forklift holes 2.

[0051] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the first reinforcing beam 4 is fixedly connected to the crossbeam 102, and the second reinforcing beam 5 is fixedly connected to the longitudinal beam 103. The arrangement of the first reinforcing beam 4 and the second reinforcing beam 5 within the inner cavity 101 further enhances the strength of the base. Furthermore, during the forklift insertion process, the fork passes sequentially through the forklift hole 2 and the through hole 6, ensuring that the fork is constrained and supported by different beams along its movement path, further preventing the fork from tilting.

[0052] Optionally, in some cases, a clearance design is required in the inner cavity 101 to accommodate the drainage needs of the base, etc. For example, as Figure 3 As shown, one end of the second reinforcing beam 5 is connected and fixed to the longitudinal beam 103, and the other end of the second reinforcing beam 5 is connected and fixed to the first reinforcing beam 4, thereby meeting different usage requirements.

[0053] In one embodiment, multiple limiting members 3 are provided, including intersecting first limiting member 31 and second limiting member 32. The extension direction of the first limiting member 31 is parallel to the crossbeam 102 and intersects with the first reinforcing beam 4. The extension direction of the second limiting member 32 is parallel to the longitudinal beam 103 and intersects with the second reinforcing beam 5.

[0054] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the first limiting member 31 intersects with and is fixed to the first reinforcing beam 4, dividing the first limiting member 31 into multiple segments along its extension direction to keep the first reinforcing beam 4 intact. Similarly, the second limiting member 32 intersects with and is fixed to the second reinforcing beam 5, dividing the second limiting member 32 into multiple segments along its extension direction to keep the second reinforcing beam 5 intact. By setting the first limiting member 31 and the second limiting member 32, when the fork enters the inner cavity 101 from a direction parallel to the crossbeam 102 or from a direction parallel to the longitudinal beam 103, the fork will be limited by the limiting member 3, making it difficult for the fork to tilt. Furthermore, the intersecting first limiting member 31 and the second limiting member 32 cooperate to form a grid-like structure, effectively improving the overall strength of the base.

[0055] In one embodiment, the limiting member 3 is a long strip structure; and / or, the limiting member 3 is provided with a hollow cavity 301.

[0056] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the limiting member 3 is designed as a long strip structure, which allows the limiting member 3 to maintain the limiting position of the fork body while reducing its cross-sectional dimensions, thereby reducing the space occupied by the limiting member 3 and the amount of material used. The limiting member 3 is provided with a hollow cavity 301, which can further reduce the weight of the limiting member 3 and the amount of material used, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

[0057] Optionally, the limiting member 3 can be a long strip of flat steel, square steel or round steel, etc., which is a hollow profile.

[0058] Secondly, this application provides a cabinet, including a cabinet body 100 and a base as described above, wherein the cabinet body 100 is placed on the base.

[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the cabinet has the aforementioned base, and a limiting member 3 is provided in the frame body 1 of the base. When the fork of the forklift enters the inner cavity 101 through the forklift hole 2, the fork can be restricted by the limiting member 3, making it difficult for the fork to move towards the base plate 200, preventing the fork from contacting and colliding with the base plate 200, avoiding deformation and damage to the base plate 200, thereby making the cabinet less prone to damage and extending the service life of the cabinet.

[0060] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, a cover plate 7 is installed on the side wall of the frame body 1, which can cover the forklift hole 2. After the cabinet is moved, the cover plate 7 is installed on the side wall of the frame body 1 to seal the inner cavity 101 of the frame body 1 and prevent debris from entering the inner cavity 101.
