Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of array hard disk enclosures for data storage, specifically an array hard disk enclosure for data storage. Background Technology

[0002] In the era of big data, the demand for data storage capacity from enterprises, research institutions and individuals is growing exponentially. Due to its advantages such as multi-hard drive collaborative storage and data redundancy backup, array hard disk enclosures have become one of the core devices for data storage.

[0003] Traditional RAID hard drive enclosures have poor protection performance. In complex environments such as high temperature, impact, and humidity, the outer shell is prone to deformation and corrosion, making it difficult to meet the long-term, high-intensity data storage needs. The hard drives continuously generate heat during operation, and the heat dissipation efficiency is low. High temperature environments can easily lead to a decrease in hard drive read and write speed, a shortened lifespan, and even the risk of data loss, failing to provide stable protection for the internal hard drives.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an array hard disk enclosure for data storage to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. The information disclosed in this background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model, and is not necessarily to be regarded as an admission or to imply in any way that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an array hard disk enclosure for data storage to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] An array hard disk enclosure for data storage includes a hard disk enclosure shell, with hard disk bodies arranged sequentially from top to bottom on the front and back sides of the inner cavity of the hard disk enclosure shell. The hard disk enclosure shell includes an aluminum alloy base layer, a protective layer is disposed within the inner cavity of the aluminum alloy base layer, a strength layer is disposed on the outer surface of the aluminum alloy base layer, the protective layer includes a high-temperature resistant alloy layer, a heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer is disposed on the outer surface of the high-temperature resistant alloy layer, the strength layer includes an aluminum oxide film layer, and a fluorocarbon material layer is disposed on the outer surface of the aluminum oxide film layer.

[0008] Preferably, the lower part of the hard drive enclosure is provided with anti-slip pads, which are made of anti-slip rubber.

[0009] Preferably, the right side of the hard drive enclosure shell is provided with heat dissipation grilles from front to back, and the inner cavity of the heat dissipation grilles is provided with heat dissipation filters.

[0010] Preferably, the outer surface of the high-temperature resistant alloy layer is bonded to the inner surface of the heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer.

[0011] Preferably, the outer surface of the alumina film layer is bonded to the inner surface of the fluorocarbon material layer.

[0012] Preferably, the outer surface of the aluminum alloy base layer is bonded to the inner surface of the protective layer, and the outer surface of the protective layer is bonded to the inner surface of the strength layer.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: First, the operator installs multiple hard drives one by one into the preset positions on the front and back of the hard drive enclosure's inner cavity, from top to bottom, ensuring precise connection between the hard drive interface and the data transmission interface inside the enclosure. The anti-slip rubber pads on the bottom fit tightly against the placement surface, achieving stable fixation and preventing displacement during subsequent operation. The heat generated by the hard drive operation is exhausted outward through the heat dissipation grille on the right side of the hard drive enclosure, forming air convection. The heat dissipation filter inside the grille intercepts dust and impurities in the air, preventing them from entering the enclosure and affecting hard drive operation. The composite structure of the hard drive enclosure provides protection; the aluminum alloy base provides basic support; the high-temperature resistant alloy layer and heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer of the protective layer isolate internal heat from damage to the shell and the influence of the external high-temperature environment; and the aluminum oxide film layer and fluorocarbon material layer of the strength layer resist external impact and corrosion, comprehensively ensuring stable hard drive operation.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution for an array hard disk enclosure for data storage: it includes a hard disk enclosure shell 1, and a hard disk body 2 is arranged sequentially from top to bottom on the front and back of the inner cavity of the hard disk enclosure shell 1. The hard disk enclosure shell 1 includes an aluminum alloy base layer 3, and a protective layer 4 is arranged in the inner cavity of the aluminum alloy base layer 3. A strength layer 5 is arranged on the outer surface of the aluminum alloy base layer 3. The protective layer 4 includes a high temperature resistant alloy layer 410, and a heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer 420 is arranged on the outer surface of the high temperature resistant alloy layer 410. The strength layer 5 includes an aluminum oxide film layer 510, and a fluorocarbon material layer 520 is arranged on the outer surface of the aluminum oxide film layer 510.

[0021] Furthermore, anti-slip pads 6 are installed around the lower end of the hard drive enclosure 1. The anti-slip pads 6 are made of anti-slip rubber. The anti-slip rubber pads 6 installed around the lower end of the hard drive enclosure 1 can fit tightly against the desktop or flat surface. Even in the event of slight vibration or accidental touch, they can effectively prevent the hard drive enclosure 1 from shifting. At the same time, the anti-slip pads 6 can also buffer the impact of external vibration on the internal hard drive body 2, reduce the risk of physical damage to the hard drive body 2 caused by vibration, and further ensure data storage security.

[0022] Furthermore, the right side of the hard drive enclosure 1 is provided with heat dissipation grilles from front to back, and the inner cavity of the heat dissipation grilles is provided with heat dissipation filters. The heat dissipation grilles on the right side of the hard drive enclosure 1 along the front-to-back direction form a multi-channel heat dissipation structure, which can quickly dissipate the heat generated by the internal hard drive. At the same time, the heat dissipation filters in the inner cavity of the heat dissipation grilles can effectively block dust and impurities from entering the hard drive enclosure 1, avoiding dust accumulation that affects the heat dissipation effect or damages the hard drive components.

[0023] Furthermore, the outer surface of the high-temperature resistant alloy layer 410 is bonded to the inner surface of the heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer 420. The protective layer 4 is composed of the high-temperature resistant alloy layer 410 and the heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer 420. The high-temperature resistant alloy layer 410 can withstand temperatures above 300°C, and the heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer 420 further enhances the heat resistance. The dual heat-resistant structure can effectively isolate the external high-temperature environment and at the same time prevent the heat generated by the internal hard drive from being conducted outward and damaging the casing.

[0024] Furthermore, the outer surface of the alumina film layer 510 is bonded to the inner surface of the fluorocarbon material layer 520. The hardness of the alumina film layer 510 of the strength layer 5 can reach HV300 or higher. Combined with the fluorocarbon material layer 520 with excellent weather resistance, it can not only resist daily collisions and scratches, but also resist corrosive environments such as humidity and acid and alkali, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of the hard drive enclosure shell 1 and greatly extending the overall service life of the equipment.

[0025] Furthermore, the outer surface of the aluminum alloy base layer 3 is bonded to the inner surface of the protective layer 4, and the outer surface of the protective layer 4 is bonded to the inner surface of the strength layer 5. The hard drive enclosure shell 1 adopts a three-layer composite structure of "aluminum alloy base layer 3-protective layer 4-strength layer 5". The layers are tightly bonded together by an adhesive process, which significantly enhances the structural stability.

[0026] It should be noted that this utility model is an array hard drive enclosure for data storage. The enclosure shell 1 adopts a three-layer composite structure of "aluminum alloy base layer 3 - protective layer 4 - strength layer 5". The layers are tightly bonded together by an adhesive process, which significantly enhances the structural stability. The protective layer 4 consists of a high-temperature resistant alloy layer 410 and a heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer 420. The high-temperature resistant alloy layer 410 can withstand temperatures above 300℃, and the heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer 420 further enhances the heat resistance. This dual heat-resistant structure effectively isolates the external high-temperature environment and prevents damage to the shell caused by the heat generated by the internal hard drive during operation. The aluminum oxide film layer 510 of layer 5 has a hardness of HV300 or higher. Combined with the weather-resistant fluorocarbon material layer 520, it not only resists daily impacts and scratches but also resists corrosive environments such as humidity and acids / alkalis. This enhances the corrosion resistance of the hard drive enclosure 1, significantly extending the overall lifespan of the device. The heat dissipation grille on the right side of the hard drive enclosure 1, arranged along the front-to-back direction, forms a multi-channel heat dissipation structure, quickly dissipating the heat generated by the internal hard drive. Simultaneously, the heat dissipation filter inside the grille effectively prevents dust and impurities from entering the hard drive enclosure 1, avoiding dust accumulation that could affect heat dissipation or damage hard drive components. The anti-slip rubber pads 6 installed around the lower edge of the shell 1 can fit snugly against the desktop or flat surface, effectively preventing displacement of the hard drive enclosure shell 1 even under slight vibration or accidental contact. At the same time, the anti-slip pads 6 can also buffer the impact of external vibration on the internal hard drive body 2, reducing the risk of physical damage to the hard drive body 2 caused by vibration, and further ensuring data storage security. The aluminum alloy base layer 3, the protective layer 4, and the strength layer 5, as well as the high-temperature resistant alloy layer 410 and the heat-resistant aluminum alloy layer 420 inside the protective layer 4, and the alumina film layer 510 and the fluorocarbon material layer 520 inside the strength layer 5, all adopt a high-strength bonding process. After long-term use, it is not prone to interlayer peeling or cracking. Compared with the traditional layered hard drive enclosure shell 1, the structure of the hard drive enclosure shell 1 has improved durability and can adapt to long-term, high-intensity use scenarios, reducing equipment replacement costs. The hard drive enclosure shell 1 and the hard drive body 2 are both existing technologies and will not be described in detail here. The contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art. Their technical principles and implementation methods are within the general knowledge scope of those skilled in the art.
