Description

Removable industrial computer mainframe

The invention relates to an improvement of an industrial computer-removable mainframe chassis device, which mainly comprises a removable industrial computer multi-track chassis and a plurality of removable industrial computer mainframes, which are modified by a removable industrial computer mainframe to conform to the front of the circuit board. Set or rear, and the cooling fan set has hot-swappable screws, and can be used with two 2.5-inch or one 3.5-inch hard disk drives.

Due to its high-speed logic operation, high-capacity storage data and continuous operation characteristics, industrial computers are connected by multiple regularized independent unit (1U) mainframes. The independent unit (1U) is a standardized cabinet with a certain height. The unit of calculation, when the industrial computer is used, the main box of two or more height units is made into a "removable industrial computer main box (2)", and stacked in a "removable industrial computer multi-rail chassis (1) Inlined into 2U, 3U, 4U, 5U, and other industrial computer mainframes, and the removable industrial computer mainframe (2) usually carries a motherboard, power supply, hard disk drive and cooling fan [CD player ] and other components.

The above-mentioned removable industrial computer main box (2) is further divided into the front and the rear of the removable industrial computer main box (2) according to the usage mode, and the difference is that if the computer main board is fixed in the extracting industry In front of the computer main box (2), the power input end and the signal output end are set on the front end board, and the computer main board is fixed in the rear side of the removable industrial computer main box (2), and the power input end and the signal are The input and output terminals are located on the rear panel, and the different ways of manufacturing are usually determined by the buyer.

In order to solve the problem of the front and rear of the motherboard, the traditional manufacturer adopts two sets of removable industrial computer main box (2) casings, and manufactures the front panel or the rear extraction of the main board according to the requirements of the buyer through different module housings. Industrial computer mainframes, obviously the manufacturing cost, production process, mold costs and semi-finished or finished product inventory will be plagued.

In the removable industrial computer mainframe (2), a hard disk drive for accessing data must be set up, but the universal hard disk drive is a 2.5" and 3.5" hard disk drive with different specifications, and the general removable industrial computer mainframe (2) The mechanism for setting or fixing the hard disk drive is limited to one of the hard disk drives unless a different removable industrial computer main box casing is used.

In the other type of industrial computer mainframe (2), because it is equipped with a high-temperature motherboard (M/B) [including CPU, expansion card holder], power supply, hard disk drive and other components, the general practice It is installed in the removable industrial computer mainframe (2), and is equipped with several parallel cooling fans as the main heat dissipation source. Although the cooling fan has been mostly hot-swapped, it is still necessary to fix or loosen after positioning. The screw is screwed or the screw is removed, so there is still room for improvement in the positioning and disengaging of the cooling fan.

In view of the absence of the front and rear modes of the motherboard (M/B) of the conventional removable industrial computer mainframe (2), the fixing of the cooling fan, and the setting of the hard disk drive, the present invention proposes a solution to improve the above problems.

The technical means of the invention is to reserve a gap of a fixed elastic snap fastener on each of the removable industrial computer mainframe casings and the front and rear end plates, so that the removable industrial computer mainframe can be turned forward and backward to conform to the circuit. Front or rear requirements of the board, and two 2.5-inch or one 3.5-inch hard disk are fixed by the hard disk drive seat with suspension, and the cooling fan set is fixed by the cover directly by the cover. The hot-swappable cooling fan can be placed in a removable industrial computer multi-track chassis for positioning or extraction.

The front end plate (23) and the rear end plate (24) form a removable industrial computer main box with a trough body (25).

The main body board (26), the power supply (27), the shock absorber hard disk base (28), and the heat dissipation fan base (29) are fixed in the tank body (25) of the removable industrial computer main box (2). Components, of course, the motherboard (26) is provided with components such as a general CPU (261), a docking station (262), and an input/output terminal (263).

Grooves (221), (222), (221'), (222') are reserved on the front and rear side surfaces of the side plates (22) and (22') of the removable industrial computer main assembly box (2). Further, symmetrical notches (231) and (241) are reserved on the side of the front end plate (23) and the rear end plate (24), and are selectively fixed to the side plate (22) via a corresponding set of elastic snap members (20). (22') Front and rear sides of the corresponding groove (221), (221') or (222), (222') and the front end plate (23) or the rear end plate (24) are reserved on the side There is a symmetrical notch (231) or (241), and the snap end (201) of the elastic snap member (20) is defined by the groove (221), (221') or (222), (222') Extending outward, the motherboard (26) is placed in the front or rear of the removable industrial computer main box (2).

As shown in the first figure, the removable industrial computer mainframe (2) can be used to place the removable industrial computer mainframe (2) containing the front or rear motherboard (26) into the removable industrial computer multi-track chassis. (1) Positioning fixed or extracted in the extraction tank (11).

As shown in the second figure, the above-mentioned suspension hard disk drive base (28) is composed of an elastic chassis (281) and a positioning plate (282), and the elastic chassis (281) is fixed to the removable industrial computer main box (2). On the bottom plate (21) in the tank body (25), the positioning plate (282) can position the positioning plate (282) on the elastic chassis (281) by a screw (283), or can be removed from the elastic chassis (281). The positioning plate (282) can be used to secure two 2.5-inch hard disk drives (284) or one 3.5-inch hard disk drive (385).

As shown in the third figure, the heat dissipation fan base (29) is a frame spanning the left and right side plates (22) and (22'), and one side is provided with a vent hole (291), which is provided on the upper side. There are slots (292), and a plurality of cooling fans (293) can be placed in the slots (292), and the upper edges of the cooling fans (293) are flush with the upper edge of the frame of the suspension hard disk holder (28). The positioning of each cooling fan (293) and the rear cover (21A) can be used to position each cooling fan (293), as shown in the third and fourth figures.

In summary, the removable industrial computer mainframe (2) of the present invention has the requirements of front or rear of the circuit board, and can be selected to fix two 2.5-inch hard disk drives (284) or one 3.5-inch hard disk drive. (385), the other cooling fan (293) has a screw-free hot plug and fix function.
