Description of the invention: [Technical field of invention] [0001] - A power supply and an electronic device with vibration monitoring, in particular, a power supply for judging the vibration of a cooling fan by using a gravity detector and applying the electric source The electronics of the supplier. [Prior Art] [0002] Since electronic equipment (including a matched power supply system) generates waste heat during operation, electronic equipment generally provides airflow through the installation of a cooling fan to assist waste heat discharge. The larger the output power of the cooling fan, the better the gas flow rate and flow rate can be provided, and the heat dissipation effect is better. However, the noise and vibration caused by the cooling fan are accompanied by the biggest problem. In fact, the vibration of the cooling fan generates most of the noise. Therefore, many prior patents have improved vibration and noise by modifying the structure of the fan or adding a shock absorbing structure. This type of prior art is, for example, the Republic of China Patent Certificate No. M242987, "The heat-dissipating fan with a shock-proof gasket", which is embedded in the outer edge of each fixing hole of the heat-dissipating fan, respectively. The anti-vibration pad comprises a sleeve portion, the sleeve portion is sleeved in the fixing hole, and a flange portion is radially protruded from an outer edge of the sleeve portion. And the center of the anti-vibration pad has an axial through hole. As can be seen from the drawings, the anti-vibration pad is embedded in the opening of the fixing hole and has a through hole through which a screw passes through the fixing hole and the fixing hole. The portion of the screw is covered through the through hole to absorb the vibration of the heat dissipation fan. [0003] The previous case of reducing the vibration and noise by changing the structure of the cooling fan also includes many cases of the Republic of China Patent Certificate No. M383650, No. 1321274, and the like. 099142919 Form No. A0101 Page 3 of 18 0992074404-0 201224730 [0004] [0005] The sub-set T shows 'electronic damage contains - power supply_2, the power supply 8 contains - power conversion circuit 81. An output terminal group 82, a ± a cooked fan 83, and a rotational speed control circuit 84. The power conversion circuit 81 is located at the input power source 9 and is powered by the power (four). ^子,, 'And (4)^. The duty fan 83 receives the money. The rotation speed of the heat dissipation fan 83 is controlled by the conversion control circuit 2 = _8 through the plurality of wheel terminals of the output terminal group 82 for the _ / the processing system 2 is electrically connected to the output terminal group ... Obtaining the output power, the information processing system 2 can include a motherboard and a processor 22 electrically connected to the motherboard 21. The host and the processing (4) are operated by the smartness of the output power. The information processing system 2 can also select the connection - display unit 3. In the architecture of the common electronic material shown in the figure, it can be seen that in the prior art, the power supply 8 determines the rotational speed of the cooling fan 83 through the rotational speed control circuit (10). The rotational speed control circuit 84 is usually based on the temperature of the power supply 8. When the rotational speed is changed, the failure of the cooling fan 83 can only be indirectly known by an abnormal temperature climb. In the prior art described above, it is not possible to detect whether the cooling fan 83 itself is operating normally, and whether the 83 itself is excessively worn. It is also impossible to measure the cooling fan. Although many vibration damping structures can vibrate the cooling fan (4), while the cooling fan is long, the vibration damping structure will be aging, or the component will be absorbed due to long-term absorption of vibration. Between the wear and tear "the gap is increased. If the deterioration continues, the vibration absorption effect of the vibration damping structure will be significantly degraded, and the existing technical yarn has measures for the reduction of the noise and vibration. For the general individual or company number user In fact, although 炊099142919 Form No. Α0101 Page 4/Total 18 Page 0992074404-0 201224730 Before the end of the wind, the charm of the shirt will have a significant impact, but for large computer systems, precision high-speed computing systems (such as For large "repositories or supercomputers, etc.", it is very sensitive to changes in vibration. And the large database contains a lot of scattered fans. If the amount of vibration is not strictly H, the amount of vibration and noise decibels are considerable. In the operation of electronic equipment, the maintainer has no way of knowing the decline of the damping effect. 'There must be a situation where the remote detection system is informed when the cooling fan is faulty. Now (4) The vibration change of the running vibration is not specifically monitored in the sub-device. [0006] [0008] [Disclosed] The heat-dissipating fan may cause excessive vibration due to poor bonding or excessive wear, due to the current (four) technology The shot cannot be _scattered to reduce the vibration too much. Therefore, the purpose of this case is to provide an electronic device that can detect the vibration of the fan, and find the vibration of the money fan (4). Repair or replace it before the heat-dissipating fan is damaged. A power supply device and an electronic device with vibration monitoring, first disclosed that a power supply device includes a power conversion circuit, a fan, and at least a gravity sensor (G sensor) mounted on the power supply unit The power conversion circuit is electrically connected to the output power source and outputs an output power. The heat dissipation fan is driven by the output power. The gravity sensor installed in the power supply is based on the power supply. The vibration of the device itself is output-vibration amplitude signal. People. Further uncover the electronic equipment with vibration monitoring, the electronic equipment package to ^ _ power supply and _ The processing system. The power supply splits the m cooling fan, and the electronic device further includes at least one 099142919 form number 帛 5 pages / a total of 18 pages 0992074404-0 201224730 installed α y. The gravity sensor in the power supply 'The gravity sensor detects the vibration of the power supply itself and outputs a vibration amplitude signal. [00〇9] The 4 f force sensing H obtains the vibration amplitude signal, and the power supply is judged to be transported by the power supply. The vibration generated by the cooling fan. In the case of excessive vibration of the cooling fan, the maintenance of the cooling fan can prevent the temperature of the electronic device from rising when the cooling fan is damaged. In addition, the excessive vibration can be avoided to cause disturbing noise. [Embodiment] _] This (4) - Power supply with vibration monitoring and electronic equipment, the following will explain the technical content of this case with the drawings. The electronic device described in the present invention comprises at least a power supply and an information processing system, and the aspect shown in Fig. 2 is a power supply! And an information processing system 2 constitutes an embodiment of the electronic device. Although the figure is provided with a power supply (4)-integrated-information processing system 2', but the single-unit information processing system 2 is connected to a plurality of power supplies 1 which is easily achieved by those skilled in the art.

The power supply I includes a power conversion circuit 11, an output terminal group 12, and a heat dissipation fan 13. The power conversion circuit 11 is electrically connected to the input power source 9, and is obtained from the wheeled power source 9 - the input power is converted into an output power 'through the wheel terminal (4). The cooling fan 13 is driven by the output power. The power supply 1 further includes at least a gravity sensor 14 (Gsens〇r), and preferably the gravity sensor 14 is disposed adjacent to the heat dissipation fan 13.

Since the movable component in the power supply is the cooling fan 13 and the gravity sensor 14 is disposed adjacent to the cooling fan 13, the amplitude of the vibration detected by the gravity sensor 14 The signal may represent the vibration of the cooling fan 13. The implementation of the information processing system 2 can include a motherboard 21 and a processor 22 electrically connected to the motherboard 21. The motherboard 21 of the information processing system 2 can be connected to a display unit 3. In the embodiment of FIG. 2, the gravity sensor 14 is electrically connected to the motherboard 21, and the vibration amplitude signal is output to the motherboard 21. The vibration amplitude signal is processed by the motherboard 21 and the processor 22 of the information processing system 2 to form a visualized message on the display unit 3. [0011] Based on the aforementioned circuit architecture, the vibration of the power supply 1 will be detected by the gravity sensor 14 and a corresponding vibration amplitude signal will be generated. By interpreting the vibration amplitude signal, it is possible to know whether the cooling fan 13 is excessively vibrated, thereby being able to dispatch maintenance when the cooling fan 13 is malfunctioning or excessively worn. Alternatively, the gravity sensor 14 itself may be set with an upper limit of the vibration amplitude, and the gravity sensor 14 determines that the vibration of the power supply 1 itself is greater than the upper limit of the vibration amplitude to output an alarm signal. Alternatively, the software in the information processing system 2 is set to an upper limit of the vibration amplitude, and the information processing system 2 generates an alert signal when the received vibration amplitude signal is greater than the upper limit of the vibration amplitude. By further generating the warning signal, the warning effect on the system maintenance personnel can be improved. [0012] Another embodiment of the present invention refers to FIG. 3.

The present embodiment further discloses that the gravity sensor 14 in the power supply 1 is electrically connected to a communication network 4, and a remote monitoring device 5 is electrically connected through the communication network 4. The vibration amplitude signal or the warning signal outputted by the gravity sensor 14 is output to the remote monitoring device 5 through the communication network 4. Thereby, the remote monitoring device 5 can determine the vibration condition of the power supply 1 at the remote end and does not need to pass through the information processing system 2, even though the information processing system 2 can continuously acquire the gravity sensor 14 to sense. the result of. [0013] In addition to the gravity sensor 14 directly outputting through the communication network 4, of course, the present invention can also be telecommunicationly connected to the communication network 4 through the information processing system 2 as shown in FIG. In the embodiment of Fig. 4, the signal of the gravity sensor 14 is obtained by the motherboard 21 of the information processing system 2.
