AI Technical Summary

⚠Technical Problem

In existing technologies, the installation and removal of server fan modules are difficult, especially when performing batch maintenance or replacement, which increases the complexity and time cost of maintenance. Furthermore, traditional designs cannot achieve unified operation of fan modules.

⚗Method used

A fan module is designed, including a fan assembly and an operating component. By setting a limit engagement between the operating component and the docking part, the fan module can be quickly plugged in and unplugged and installed and disassembled as a whole. The operating component switches between locked and released positions, simplifying the connection and disconnection of the fan module from the server chassis.

🎯Benefits of technology

This improved the efficiency of fan module installation and removal, reduced the labor intensity of workers, enabled tool-free installation, and enhanced maintenance efficiency, equipment safety, and reliability.

Abstract

A fan module for a server, and a server. The fan module for a server comprises a fan assembly (10) and operating members (20). The fan assembly (10) is detachably arranged in a server chassis (40), the fan assembly (10) is provided with docking portions (11), and the docking portions (11) can be positioned and docked with locking portions (411) of the server chassis (40). Each operating member (20) is movably arranged at the corresponding docking portion (11), and the operating member (20) has a locked position and a release position. When the operating member (20) is in the locked position, the operating member (20) is in limiting fit with the corresponding locking portion (411) and prevents the docking portion (11) from separating from the locking portion (411); and when the operating member (20) is in the release position, the operating member (20) is in avoidance fit with the corresponding locking portion (411), and the docking portion (11) and the locking portion (411) can be separated for the removal of the fan assembly (10).
