Definitions
- the invention relates to a mounting mechanism in general, and specifically, to a mounting mechanism to form a thermal interface between two heat exchanging devices.
- Cooling of high performance integrated circuits with high heat dissipation is presenting significant challenge in the electronics cooling arena.
- Conventional cooling with heat pipes and fan mounted heat sinks are not adequate for cooling chips with every increasing wattage requirements, including those exceeding 10OW.
- Electronics servers such as blade servers and rack servers, are being used in increasing numbers due to the higher processor performance per unit volume one can achieve.
- the high density of integrated circuits also leads to high thermal density, which is beyond the capability of conventional air-cooling methods.
- a particular problem with cooling integrated circuits on electronics servers is that multiple electronics servers are typically mounted in close quarters within a server chassis.
- electronics servers are separated by a limited amount of space, thereby reducing the dimensions within which to provide an adequate cooling solution.
- stacking of electronics servers does not provide the mounting of large fans and heat sinks for each electronics server.
- electronics server stacks within a single server chassis are cooled by one large fan, a heat sink or both.
- the integrated circuits on each electronics server are cooled using the heat sink and the large fan that blows air over the heat sink, or simply by blowing air directly over the electronics servers.
- the amount of air available for cooling the integrated circuits is limited.
- Liquid cooling systems such as closed-loop liquid cooling systems and heat pipes, present alternative methodologies for conventional cooling solutions. Liquid cooling needs to occur at the integrated circuit level on a electronics server. Due to the density of the electronics and the high power densities of ultra high performance servers, the heat picked up by a liquid cooling loop cannot be effectively discharged to the air via a radiator, as is common practice in other form factors such as desktops and work stations. The heat must be transferred to the server rack cooling system, which may be comprised of a pumped refrigerant or chilled water loop. A key requirement of servers is the ability to swap in and out electronics servers. As such, there is a need to effectively connect and disconnect each electronics server and its corresponding cooling system to and from the rack cooling system.
- Cooling systems of the present invention are directed to cooling solutions used to transfer heat produced by one or more heat generating devices, such as microprocessors or other integrated circuits, from one or more electronics servers to the ambient.
- a liquid-based cooling system is used.
- a server chassis is configured to house multiple electronics servers. Examples of electronics servers includes, but are not limited to, blade servers and rack servers. Each electronics server is coupled to a backplane or mid- plane within the server chassis. For purposes of this disclosure, the terms “backplane” and “mid-plane” are used interchangeably.
- Each electronics server includes one or more heat generating devices.
- Each liquid based cooling system includes a server pump and one or more microchannel cold plates (MCP). Fluid lines preferably couple the MCPs and the server pump. In other embodiments, heat pipes or conduction means are used instead of the liquid-based cooling system.
- MCP microchannel cold plates
- the liquid based cooling system for each electronics server includes a rejector plate.
- Each rejector plate is configured with fluid channels, preferably micro-channels. Alternatively, each rejector plate is configured with macro-channels.
- the micro-channels are coupled to the fluid lines thereby forming a first closed loop including the MCPs, the server pump and the rejector plate.
- the rejector plate is coupled to a chassis cold plate via a thermal interface material, thereby forming a thermal interface.
- the thermal interface is configured along a plane that is non-perpendicular to an insertion vector of the electronics server into a server rack chassis. In some embodiments, the thermal interface plane is parallel to the insertion vector.
- the rejector plates for each of the electronics servers are coupled to the chassis cold plate in this manner.
- the chassis cold plate is coupled to the server chassis.
- the chassis cold plate includes one or more heat exchanging elements.
- the chassis cold plate includes fluid channels which are coupled via fluid lines to a liquid-to-air heat exchanging system.
- the liquid-to-air heat exchanging system includes a heat rejector, one or more fans, and an external pump.
- the chassis cold plate, the heat rejector, the external pump, and fluid lines connected thereto form a second closed loop.
- Fluid is pumped through the first closed loop such that heat generated by each heat generating device on the electronics server is transferred to the fluid flowing through each respective MCP coupled to the heat generating devices.
- the heated fluid flows into the fluid channels within the rejector plate.
- fluid is pumped through the fluid channels in the chassis cold plate by the external pump. Heat within the fluid flowing through each rejector plate is transferred through a thermal interface to the chassis cold plate and to the fluid flowing through the chassis cold plate. Heated fluid within the chassis cold plate is pumped to the heat rejector within the liquid-to-air heat exchanging system, where heat is transferred from the fluid to the air.
- Fluid flowing in the first closed loop system is independent of fluid flowing in the second closed loop system.
- TIM thermal interface material
- Methods for applying pressure include, but are not limited to, mechanical clamping, springs, electro-mechanical motors or actuators, pneumatics and hydraulics.
- the heat exchangers can take a variety of shapes, including planar, cylindrical, curvilinear, or other non-planar confiugrations.
- the mating surfaces of the heat exchangers can be smooth or with physical features such as mating teeth to increase surface area or ensure alignment.
- Thermal contact can be made on one or more surfaces creating a sandwich type structure.
- a heat exchanger can be a single solid piece or can be made up of an array of smaller heat exchangers to allow flexibility when mating curved to curved surfaces.
- the mounting mechanism used to engage and disengage the heat exchangers is configured to isolate the force applied to the two heat exchangers.
- the mounting mechanism includes an interlocking channel mechanism that prevents transfer of the applied force to the rest of the electronics server or rack chassis. Without isolating this force, the force applied to the electronics server may result in disconnecting the electrical connections between the electronics server and the rack, as well as providing mechanical stress to the electronics server and the rack chassis.
- the mounting mechanism can be coupled to the electronics server locking mechanism such that the action of locking the electronics server into the server rack causes the heat exchangers to engage in thermal contact. This is a fail safe procedure since no separate process is required to engage the electronics server cooling loop.
- unlocking the electronics server causes the heat exchangers to disengage allowing the electronics to be removed without interference from either the electronics server cooling loop or the rack cooling loop.

- Chilled water lines can have scale and other particulate which may not be an issue at rack level cooling but can quickly clog a heat exchanger at the board level.
- Another consideration is that the level of control of materials used for larger scale cooling applications is also different then that for a electronics server cooling loop and corrosion may become an issue. For the independent cooling loop systems described above in relation to Figures 2 and 3, these considerations are eliminated.

- pressure is applied between the two heat exchangers, the rejector plate and the chassis cold plate.
- the pressure required to hold the heat exchangers can be 20-30 psi or higher.
- Methods for*applying pressure include, but are not limited to, mechanical clamping, springs, electro-mechanical motors or actuators, pneumatics and hydraulics.
- the heat exchangers can take a variety of shapes, including planar, cylindrical, curvilinear, or other non-planar configurations.
- the mating surfaces of the heat exchangers can be smooth or with physical features such as mating teeth to increase surface area or ensure alignment.
- Thermal contact can be made on one or more surfaces creating a sandwich type structure.
- a heat exchanger can be a single solid piece or can be made up of an array of smaller heat exchangers to allow flexibility when mating non-planar surfaces.
- the mounting mechanism used to engage and disengage the heat exchangers is configured to isolate the force applied to the two heat exchangers.
- the mounting mechanism includes an interlocking mechanism that prevents transfer of the applied force to the rest of the electronics server or rack chassis. Without isolating this force, the force is applied to the electronics server and/or the rack chassis, possibly disconnecting the electrical connections between the electronics server and the rack, as well as providing mechanical stress to the electronics server and/or the rack chassis.
- the mounting mechanism can also be coupled to the electronics server locking mechanism such that the action of locking the electronics server into the rack causes the heat exchangers to engage in thermal contact. This is a fail safe procedure since no separate process is required to engage the electronics server cooling loop. Similarly, unlocking the electronics server causes the heat exchangers to disengage allowing the electronics to be removed without interference from either the electronics server cooling loop or the rack cooling loop.

- the chassis cold plate 50 is positioned at its un-actuated position and the rejector plate 50 is not forced by the translation mechanism. As such, the rejector plate 50 is not thermally coupled to the chassis
- any conventional means can be used, including but not limited to alternative spring means, pneumatics, mechanical clamping, and hydraulics.
- Any number of translation mechanisms can be employed to create the necessary translation of the rejector plate and the chassis cold plate for full engagement.
- One method is through the use of horizontal or vertical cams. These allow the conversion of a rotational motion to a linear motion.
- the cams can be further attached to a linear mechanical linkage providing the conversion of a motion in the X direction to a motion in the Y axis.
- the shape of the cams can be custom tailored to allow for different styles of translation. For example, if identically shaped cams are used, the rejector plate is uniformly moved in parallel relative to the side of the chassis cold plate. If slightly different shaped cams are used, a progressive motion is made such that one edge of the rejector plate moves forward toward the chassis cold plate, then the other edge of the rejector plate moves. This is useful when disengaging the system and trying to break free a TIM joint.
- Figure 12 illustrates a perspective view of the of the rejector plate and the chassis cold plate within the mounting assembly of Figures 9-11.
- the rejector plate 50 is moved in the horizontal direction. Moving the rejector plate 50 from right to left engages the thermal interface. Moving the rejector plate 50 from left to right disengages the thermal interface.

- the shape of the cams 202 and 206 determine translation of the rejector plate 50 from side to side or from top to bottom.
- the shape and orientation of the cams 202 relative to the cams 206 determines the translation of the top side of the rejector plate 50 relative to the bottom side. If the cams 202 and the cams 206 are shaped and oriented the same, then the entire rejector plate 50 moves uniformly. If the cams 202 and the cams 206 are not shaped or oriented the same, then one side of the rejector plate 50 moves differently than the other side. It is understood that more than two cams 202 can be used and/or more than two cams 206 can be used. It is also understood that more than two rows of cams can be used.

- the shape and orientation of each of the cams 210 relative to each other determines the translation of the side portion of the rejector plate 50 relative to the other side. If the cams 210 are each shaped and oriented the same, then the entire rejector plate 50 moves uniformly. If the cams 210 are not shaped or oriented the same, then one side of the rejector plate 50 moves differently than the other side. It is understood that more than two cams 210 can be used.
- Figure 15A illustrates a perspective view of a first embodiment of a vertical cam configuration. Multiple cams 214 are positioned vertically against the back surface 51.

- the shape and orientation of each of the cams 214 determines the translation of one side of the rejector plate 50 relative to the other side. If the cams 214 are shaped and oriented the same, then the entire rejector plate 50 moves uniformly. If the cams 214 are not shaped or oriented the same, then one side of the rejector plate 50 moves differently than the other side. It is understood that more than two cams 214 can be used can be used.
- Figure 16A illustrates a perspective view of a second embodiment of a vertical cam configuration.
- a single cam 216 is positioned vertically against the middle of the back surface 51. This allows the pressure between the rejector plate 50 and the chassis cold plate 60 to self-balance, as the force is applied as a single point on the back of the rejector plate 50.
- Figure 16B illustrates a top down view of the second embodiment of the vertical cam configuration of Figure 16A. The shape of the cam 216 determine translation of the rejector plate 50.
- the cams move the rejector plate 50 from right to left, toward the chassis cold plate 60.
- the cams do not retract the rejector plate 50 from the chassis cold plate 60.

- the cams must overcome the spring force of the attached spring.
- the cams are disengaged by rotating them to their initial positions. In response, the spring pulls the rejector plate 50 away from the chassis cold plate 60, for example from left to right in the Figures 12-16B.
- the cams can be coupled to a common linkage assembly.
- the common linkage assembly such as an actuating rod, is used to actuate the earns.
- the linkage assembly can be manually operated.
- the linkage assembly can also be coupled to the electronics server locking mechanism used to lock the electronics server into the rack when the electronics server is installed. In this manner, the cams are actuated concurrently with the rack locking mechanism such that the action of locking the electronics server into the rack causes the rejector plate and the chassis cold plate to engage in thermal contact.
- FIG. 17 illustrates a top down view of a first ramp translation mechanism.
- a rejector plate 150 includes one or more ramp profiles 152 along a back surface 151.
- An actuating mechanism 220 is configured with one or more ramp profiles 222 that mate to the one or more ramp profiles 152. The actuating mechanism is positioned against a fixed surface within the chassis guide
- the actuating mechanism 220 is fixed relative to the chassis guide 52 such that as the electronics server 34 is installed in the rack, the rejector plate 150 slides along the actuating mechanism 220 such that the ramp profiles 222 slide along the ramp profiles 152, thereby forcing the rejector plate 152 against the chassis cold plate 60. As shown in Figure 17, the rejector plate 150 is translated from right to left according to this procedure. In other embodiments, the actuating mechanism 220 slides along the chassis guide 52.
- a separate step is performed in which the actuating mechanism 220 is moved along the chassis guide, for example from top to bottom in Figure 17, such that the ramp profiles 222 slide along the ramp profiles 152, thereby forcing the rejector plate 152 against the chassis cold plate 60.
- This step can be automatically performed as part of as locking procedure used to lock the electronics server 34 into the rack, or this step can be manually performed after the locking procedure.
- Figure 18 illustrates a top down view of a second ramp translation mechanism.
- the second ramp translation mechanism functions similarly to the first ramp translation mechanism with the exception that the ramp profiles 222 on the actuating mechanism are replaced by rollers.
- an actuating mechanism 230 is configured with one or more rollers 232 that mate to the one or more ramp profiles 152.
- the actuating mechanism is positioned against a fixed surface, such as the inside surface of the chassis guide 52.
- rollers 232 reduce the friction against the ramp profiles 152.
- the actuating mechanism 230 is fixed relative to the chassis guide 52.
- the actuating mechanism 220 slides along the chassis guide 52.
- Alternative slides 234 can also be used to further reduce the friction generated when moving the actuating mechanism 230. It is understood that the location of the ramps and the rollers can be reversed while achieving
- first and second ramp translation mechanisms require a retracting means for disengaging the rejector plate 150 from the chassis cold plate 60.
- Spring means similar to that described above in relation to the cam configurations can be included in either the first or second ramp translation mechanisms.
- Another translation mechanism used is a scissor jack positioned between the rejector
- Figure 19 illustrates a top down view of a scissor jack translation mechanism.
- a scissor jack 242 is positioned between the back surface 51 of the rejector plate 50 and a fixed surface within the chassis guide 52, such as the inside surface of the chassis guide 52.
- An actuating rod 240 is coupled to open and close the scissor jack 242. For example, as applied to Figure 19, upward movement of the actuating
- O rod 240 opens the scissor jack 242, and downward movement of the actuating ord 240 closes the scissor jack 242.
- the scissor jack 242 can be held in place within the chassis guide 52 by an alternative support 244.
- the actuating rod 240 is automatically actuated as part of locking procedure used to lock the electronics server 34 into the rack. In other embodiments, the actuating rod 240 is moved independently of the locking procedure.
- FIG. 2OA illustrates a top down view of an exemplary embodiment of the translation mechanism using cams, slots,
- a cold plate extension 252 is attached to the rejector plate 50.
- One or more cams 260 are coupled to the chassis guide 52 ( Figure 9) at a center position 262. The cams 260 are free to rotate about the center position 262, but are otherwise linearly fixed relative to the chassis guide 52.
- the center position 262 is positioned within a center slot 256 of the cold plate extension 252.
- Each cam 260 includes a pin 264 that extends perpendicularly from a surface of the cam. The pin 262 fits within a pin slot 254 of the cold plate extension 252.
- the cams 260 are rotated counterclockwise. Counterclockwise rotation of the cams 260 forces the pin 262 along the pin slot 254 in the Y-direction (downward relative to Figure 20B), which generated a linear force in the X-direction. This linear force moves the cold plate extension 252, and therefore the rejector plate 50, in the X-direction to disengage the chassis cold plate 60, as illustrated in Figure 2OA.
- Each of the cams 260 can be linked together via a mechanical linkage (not shown). In some embodiments, the mechanical linkage is automatically actuated as part of the locking procedure used to lock the electronics server 34 into the rack. In other embodiments, the mechanical linkage is moved independently of the locking procedure.
- the profile of the pin slot 254 is shown in Figures 2OA and 2OB as a straight line in the Y direction, which results in substantially a linear conversion of rotational movement to linear movement. This profile can be adjusted, thereby altering the mechanical force profile applied to the rejector plate.

- the cold plate extension 352 includes one or more slots 354.
- An actuating rod 320 includes one or more pins 322 that extend perpendicularly from a surface of the actuating rod. Each pin 322 fits into one of the slots 354 of the cold plate extension 352.
- the actuating rod 320 slides back and forth in the Y-direction, but is fixed in the X-direction. As the actuating rod 320 moves in the Y-direction, the pins 322 move within the slots 354. Linear movement of the actuating rod 320 in the Y-direction is converted to linear movement of the cold plate extension 352, and therefore the attached rejector plate 50, depending on a slot profile of the slots 354.
- the slot profiles of each slot 354 can be the same, or different, depending on the required motion of the rejector plate 50.
- Varying the slot profile provides mechanical variations in the force applied to the rejector plate 50.
- the rejector plate 50 is uniformly moved in the X-direction to engage the chassis cold plate
- Figure 21C illustrates a side view of the exemplary translation mechanism of Figure 21 A.

- the expansion mechanism include, but are not limited to, a bellows or a bladder.
- the expansion mechanism 270 can also be any one of the previously described actuation means, or a variation thereof.
- the configuration described above can include the force containment assembly 52 (as shown in Figure 22) or not include the force containment assembly 52.
- the actuating force used to actuate the various translation mechanism described herein above can be provided using various actuating means. Examples of such actuating means include, but are not limited to, mechanical linkages, such as pull/push rods, screw drives, hydraulics, electro-mechanical motors or actuators, and pneumatics.
- the rejector plate of the electronics server can be movable or fixed relative to the electronics server circuit board, and/or the chassis cold plate of the rack can be movable or fixed relative to the rack chassis, and any of the mounting assemblies and actuating mechanisms described herein can be applied to various combinations of movable and/or fixed rejector plate and chassis cold plate configurations.
