Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic device storage shelf that can be placed in an electronic device storage cabinet that can store electronic devices such as servers in multiple stages, a storage rack including an electronic device storage shelf, and an electronic device storage shelf. The present invention relates to a stored electronic device.

  2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a rack mount type that can be stored in multiple stages in an electronic device storage cabinet formed based on a specific standard (for example, EIA standard) has become the mainstream of electronic devices such as servers.

The rack-mount type electronic device has an advantage that the area occupied by the entire system can be reduced when the system is constructed by storing it in an electronic device storage cabinet.
In addition, since the electronic device storage cabinet is formed so that various electronic devices can be stored in multiple stages, it is easy to change the arrangement based on the functions of each electronic device, and has flexibility in system construction. At the same time, expandability can be improved.

  On the other hand, for example, when rack-mounted servers are stored in multiple stages in an electronic device storage cabinet, the servers and the electronic device storage shelves that store the servers are usually arranged horizontally. Therefore, heat radiated from an electronic component such as a CPU (heating element) mounted on the server is likely to be trapped inside the server or the electronic device storage cabinet. As a result, there is a risk of damaging electronic components mounted on the server.
