Description

Movable carrier and servo device

The invention relates to a movable bearing frame and a servo device, in particular to a movable carrier frame and a servo device with a wind guiding function.

In today's computer systems, in order to efficiently manage the resources of multiple computer hosts and provide more services to each computer host, a so-called server is often used. Servers usually have higher computing power and larger data storage space to provide multiple computer hosts for applications. Generally speaking, a fan is installed in the server, and the electronic components inside the server, such as the central processing unit, the memory and the expansion card, are dissipated by the cooling airflow generated by the fan. In addition, in order to improve the heat dissipation performance of the heat dissipation airflow on the electronic components inside the server, an additional air guide cover is installed inside the server to guide the heat dissipation airflow to flow concentratedly to each electronic component.

However, the air guide installed inside the server often occupies a huge space, and the place where the air guide is installed is difficult to be properly utilized, thereby resulting in a waste of the internal space of the server.
