Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of server racks, and more particularly to ventilated and filtered server racks. Background Technology

[0002] The storage environment (operating and idle storage) of a server directly determines its stability, lifespan, and data security. The core requirements revolve around six dimensions: temperature and humidity, cleanliness, power supply, vibration and shock, electromagnetic interference, and space ventilation. However, hosting a server in a standard storage room is very expensive, so some small businesses put their servers in idle rooms. Current server racks are designed according to cleanroom standards and do not have the ability to filter dust. This means that storing servers in ordinary environments will cause a large amount of dust to accumulate on the surface and inside of the server, which is not conducive to the long-term preservation of the server. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model provides a ventilated and filtered server cabinet.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A ventilated and filtered server rack includes a rack body and a door hinged to the rack body for opening and closing. The rack body is a hollow rack body consisting of a top plate, a left side plate, a bottom plate, and a right side plate surrounding a back plate. The door is a rectangular frame, with an inward-facing filter cover mounting groove on the inner side of the outer frame of the door's outward-facing side for installing a filter cover. The rack body is characterized by further including a filter cover, a first filter plate, a second filter plate, a third filter plate, and a fan. An exhaust vent is located on the back plate of the rack body, with a partition covering the end of the exhaust vent. A fan is mounted on the partition and installed inside the exhaust vent. The filter cover is fixedly connected to the mounting groove. The filter cover is a rectangular box, and the size and shape of its outer ring match the size and shape of the inner ring of the mounting groove. Ventilation holes are located on the side of the filter cover away from the door body. The first filter plate is fixedly connected inside the filter cover, and the second and third filter plates are fixedly connected inside the door body. The shape and size of the third filter plate match the shape and size of the inner frame of the door body. When the fan is under negative pressure, the design allows air to pass through three layers of filter plates from the door into the cabinet and then be discharged from the exhaust vent. The filter plates ensure that the air entering the cabinet is clean air.

[0005] Furthermore, the first filter plate is made of spunbond polyester fiber (PET) nonwoven fabric or polypropylene (PP) spunbond nonwoven fabric to intercept large particulate impurities in the air and prevent them from clogging the subsequent second and third filter plates.

[0006] Furthermore, the second filter plate uses modified PP meltblown nonwoven fabric or coated glass fiber felt to capture medium-sized dust particles, further reducing the filtration load on the third filter plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the third filter plate uses PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) membrane filter material or nano-silica coated glass fiber filter paper to intercept fine dust and aerosols.

[0008] Furthermore, the ventilation and filtration server rack is also equipped with a locking device, which includes a locking groove and a locking buckle that cooperates with the locking groove. The locking groove is located on the outer wall of the left side panel of the rack near the opening, and the locking buckle is located on the outer wall of the left side frame of the door near the opening. The position of the locking buckle corresponds to the position of the locking groove. The locking groove has a rectangular groove, and the top surface of the locking groove has a locking groove hole that connects to the rectangular groove. The locking buckle has a ring buckle, the size and position of which are adapted to the rectangular groove. The ring buckle has a ring buckle hole that runs longitudinally through the ring buckle. The size and position of the locking groove hole and the ring buckle hole are matched. The locking device is designed for normal locking of the rack.

[0009] Furthermore, the fan includes an impeller and blades mounted on the side of the impeller. The impeller is a rearward impeller, and the blades are bent in the opposite direction to the rotation direction. The impeller is mounted on a partition plate, and the connection of the drive motor passes through an opening in the partition plate and is connected to the impeller. This design enables the fan to perform negative pressure ventilation.

[0010] Furthermore, the partition is a circular grid panel with several openings for ventilation. The size of the partition matches the size of the ventilation openings. This design allows the gas inside the cabinet to be discharged normally, thereby achieving gas circulation.

[0011] Furthermore, a sealing groove is provided on the opening surface of the cabinet, and the sealing groove is in close contact with the edges of the top panel, left side panel, bottom panel and right side panel of the cabinet; a sealing gasket is provided on the side of the door that closes with the opening surface of the cabinet, and the position, shape and height of the sealing gasket match the position, shape and depth of the sealing groove; this design seals the opening and closing of the cabinet and the door to prevent external gas from entering the cabinet from the opening and closing seam.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom plate of the cabinet is equipped with wiring holes; this design is used to connect the server's connection cable to the outside world.

[0013] Furthermore, the door body and the filter cover are fixedly connected by bolts and bolt holes. Bolt holes are provided at the four corners of the filter cover mounting groove, and corresponding bolt holes are provided at the corresponding positions on the filter cover. The bolt holes on the filter cover are through holes.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The ventilation and filtration server cabinet of this utility model can filter the air entering the cabinet to ensure that the air entering the cabinet is clean air, and can continuously ventilate the cabinet, so that the cabinet can maintain a clean internal environment even if it is not placed in a clean room, and can effectively solve the problem of dust accumulation inside the server after long-term use.

The shape and size of the third filter plate 206 are matched with the shape and size of the inner frame of the door 200. It uses PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) membrane filter material or nano-silica coated glass fiber filter paper to intercept fine dust and aerosols.

[0021] like Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the fan 500 is a negative pressure fan using a backward impeller 504. The blades 501 bend in the opposite direction to the rotation direction and are mounted on the side of the impeller 504. The impeller 504 is mounted on a partition plate 503, which is a circular grid plate. The size of the partition plate 503 matches the size of the exhaust port 107. The partition plate 503 has several openings for exhaust. The front end of the drive motor 502 passes through the openings on the partition plate 503 and connects to the impeller 504 of the fan 500. The partition plate 503 is mounted at the tail end of the exhaust port 107, and the outer edge of the partition plate 503 is in contact with the outer edge of the exhaust port 107.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 He Ru Figure 10 As shown, the ventilation and filtration server cabinet is also equipped with a locking device 300. The locking device 300 includes a locking groove 301, a locking buckle 302 that cooperates with the locking groove 301, and an insert 303 that connects and fixes the locking groove 301 and the locking buckle 302 together. The locking groove 301 is located on the outer wall of the left side panel 102 of the cabinet near the opening. The locking groove 301 is a rectangular cube with a rectangular slot 3011 inside. A locking slot hole 3012 is opened on the top surface of the locking groove 301, which extends to the rectangular slot 3011 but does not penetrate the bottom of the locking groove 301. The locking buckle 302 is located on the left side frame of the door near the opening. On the outer wall, the position of the locking buckle 302 corresponds to the position of the locking groove 301. The locking buckle 302 is provided with an annular buckle 3021 that can be inserted into the rectangular groove 3011.
