Description

Server case

The present invention relates to a server casing, and more particularly to a server casing that supports a fixed inner partition by a support bar.

As the computing performance of the server increases, the number of hard disks in the server also increases. Therefore, the size and design of the hard disk holder for the hard disk in the server casing has also evolved with the development of the server.

Current hard disk shelves can be divided into fixed hard disk shelves and removable hard disk shelves. The detachable hard disk frame is more flexible than the fixed hard disk frame in the configuration and operation of the hard disk seating space. However, the detachable hard disk frame has the problem that the structural strength is not as good as that of the fixed hard disk frame, and the structure of the hard disk frame is easily deformed.

The invention provides a server casing, thereby solving the problem that the structure of the detachable hard disk frame in the server casing is easily deformed.

A server casing according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a carrier housing, a plurality of partition plates, and a support strip. A plurality of partition plates are arranged side by side on the carrying case, and the plurality of dividing plates are kept at a distance from each other. The partition plates each have a plurality of air holes. The support strip detachably passes through one of the air holes of each of the partition plates and is fixed to each of the partition plates.

According to the server casing disclosed in the above invention, since the support bar is disposed in the existing air hole of each partition plate, and the support bar is engaged with each of the partition plates, the pair can be added. The support force of the partition plate is to reduce the problem that the partition plate is deformed by compression and deformation of the hard disk frame structure, and does not increase the manufacturing cost too high.

The features, implementations, and utilities of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The fixing member 40 disposed in the first locking hole 23 and the second locking hole 331 prevents the support bar 30 from being detached from the engaging groove 22 of the partitioning plate 20 to lose support. In an embodiment of the invention, the locking hole is a screw hole and the locking member is a screw, but is not limited thereto. In other embodiments of the invention, the locking holes may be perforated and the locking members are rivets.

The hard disk backplane 50 is located between the bottom plate 11 of the carrier housing 10, the two mounting plates 13, and a plurality of partitioning plates 20. A plurality of dividers 20 are orthogonal to the hard disk backplane 50. The hard disk back plate 50 is locked to the surface of the bottom plate 11.

The fan frame 60 is located in the accommodating space 14 of the carrying case 10 and abuts the outermost dividing plate 20 of the plurality of dividing plates 20. The fan frame 60 is locked to the two side plates 12 of the carrying case 10.

In addition, in this embodiment, the plurality of fastening notches 313 are respectively engaged with the respective locking slots 22 of the plurality of partition plates, but are not limited thereto. In other embodiments of the present invention, the plurality of fastening notches can be directly engaged with the side edges of the plurality of partition plates, respectively.

In addition, in the embodiment, the two fixing plates 33 are orthogonally connected to the two short sides 312, but are not limited thereto. In other embodiments of the present invention, the two fixing plates are respectively connected to the supporting plate and orthogonal to the supporting plate and the two long sides. Moreover, in this embodiment, the number of the fixing plates is two, but not limited thereto. In other embodiments of the present invention, the number of the fixing plates connected to the support plate may be one or three or more The gusset is not connected to the fixing plate.

Next, the assembly method of the server casing will be described. Referring to FIGS. 4A to 4F, FIGS. 4A to 4F are schematic views showing the assembly manner of the server casing according to an embodiment of the present invention.

First, as shown in FIG. 4A, after the hard disk backplane 50 is placed in the accommodating space 14 and locked on the surface of the bottom plate 11 of the carrying case 10, the fan frame 60 is disposed in the accommodating space 14 and locked. The two side plates 12 of the outer casing 10 are carried.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4B, the opposite ends of the plurality of partitioning plates 20 are orthogonally fixed to the two mounting plates 13, respectively, and the plurality of dividing plates 20 are spaced apart from each other by a distance.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4C, the two mounting plates 13 and the plurality of partitioning plates 20 which are orthogonally fixed to each other are placed above the hard disk backing plate 50, so that the outermost dividing plate 20 is adjacent to the fan frame 60, and The two mounting plates 13 are respectively fixed to the two side plates 12 of the carrying case 10.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4D, the support strips 30 are passed through the wind holes 21 of the respective partitioning plates 20 to which the snap grooves 22 are attached, and the partitioning plates 20 are aligned with the fastening notches 313 on the support bars 30. The upper card is engaged with the slot 22.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4E, the support strip 30 is pushed to cause the fastening notch 313 of the support plate 31 to enter the guiding section 221 of the engaging groove 22. Through the guiding of the guiding inclined surface 223 in the guiding section 221, the supporting strip 30 can be pushed more smoothly, and the locking notch 313 of the supporting plate 31 is inserted into the card of the engaging groove 22 by the guiding section 221 of the engaging groove 22. The connecting portion 222 is fastened in the engaging portion 222. When the support plate 31 is stuck When the 313 is completely locked in the engaging portion 222 of the engaging groove 22 of the partitioning plate 20, the first locking hole 23 located in the vicinity of the air hole 21 to which the engaging groove 22 is connected to the partitioning plate 20 is connected to the support.
