Protective enclosure for data storage
A data storage enclosure for storing data on digital storage media has a lid that secures to a base. The enclosure has an upper insulating block that is located adjacent the lid and a lower insulating block that is located in the base. Each insulating block has a corresponding cover that overlays and protects its respective block. A storage unit has outer thermal management layers and a center layer located therebetween. The thermal management layers each contain a corresponding heat absorber that absorbs energy and changes from solid to liquid as the temperature of the storage unit begins to rise to excessive temperatures. The center layer contains a digital storage drive that is connected to a flexible cable that is connected to a sacrificial connector. When assembled, the insulating blocks and covers constrain and hold the storage unit and flexible cable.
Multi-directional impact protection with magnitude and direction indicator
An apparatus for protecting against a multi-directional impact, includes a body with a first set of radial segments, where the body is coupled to an object such that the first set of radial segments extend beyond a planar surface of the object. The apparatus further includes a first radial segment of the first set of radial segments having a diameter greater than a second radial segment of the first set of radial segments. The apparatus further includes a first notch of the first set of radial segments separating the first radial segment and the second radial segment having a concave edge, wherein the first radial segment and the second radial segment each extend beyond the concave edge of the first notch of the first set of radial segments.
MAINFRAME DOOR WITH INTEGRATED EARTHQUAKE HARDWARE AND REVERSIBLE SWING
A mainframe door assembly for a frame is provided. The mainframe door assembly includes a door having opposed first and second sides and first and second mount assemblies. The first and second mount assemblies are configured to mount the first and second sides of the door to the frame, respectively, such that the door can occupy and move between an installed position and a loading position. In the installed position, the door is flush with the frame. In the loading position, the first mount assemblies support and the second mount assemblies permit a swinging of the door about the first side or the second mount assemblies support and the first mount assemblies permit a swinging of the door about the second side.
Skylight operating system of modular data center
The present invention discloses a skylight operating system of a modular data center, so as to timely respond to a firefighting requirement of the modular data center to reduce occurrence of firefighting-related accidents. The skylight operating system comprises: an electric skylight; a firefighting environment index monitoring device arranged inside the modular data center; a monitoring and interacting device arranged in a monitoring room outside the modular data center, and connected with the electric skylight and the firefighting environment index monitoring device, the monitoring and interacting device adapted for receiving monitoring information of the firefighting environment index monitoring device, and opening the electric skylight upon determination that a firefighting-related issue occurs inside the modular data center.
Modular rack assembly
A frame structure for a cabinet enclosure has a front frame assembly having first and second front pillars, a rear frame assembly having first and second rear pillars, a first side brace member, and a second side brace member, each having a beam that has opposite ends, with the opposite ends of each side brace member connected to one of the front pillars and one of the rear pillars. The frame structure also includes cable management and air flow management features and functions.
CRUSH-RESISTING STRUCTURE AND CABINET USING THE SAME
A structure of reduced profile to render crushproof a cabinet with the structure can be installed in an opening of the cabinet. The structure includes a first frame and a reinforcing portion. Two ends of the reinforcing portion are both connected to the first frame, so that the reinforcing portion is received in the first frame. The crush-proofing structure is movably connected to the opening of the cabinet.
Prefabricating and Stacking Combined Data Center and Assembling Method Thereof
Disclosed is a prefabricating and stacking combined data center. The data center is formed block structures in a multi-dimensional stacking manner. The block structures are disposed to be a fire protection layer, an air return layer, a bridge architecture wiring layer, a top-cabinet wiring layer, a cabinet device layer, and an air supply layer from up to down, which are independent from each other. Provided is a prefabricating and stacking combined data center. Operation difficulty of site construction is greatly reduced by prefabricating block structures by a factory, forming the data center by multi-dimensional stacking, and connecting the block structures with each other by splicing on site. In addition, according to different requirements of customers, corresponding ancillary facilities may be designed based on volume of an IT device, and the device and a computer room may be reasonably and effectively arranged according to the corresponding national standards and specifications.
Selective-access data-center racks
Provided is a rack, comprising: a plurality of rack units; and a plurality of lockers each housing a different respective subset of the rack units, wherein respective lockers among the plurality comprise: a first respective barrier disposed between a respective pair of the rack units; a second respective barrier disposed between another respective pair of the rack units; a third respective barrier that is orthogonal to the first barrier and the second barrier, the third respective barrier being moveably or removeably coupled to the rack; a respective volume configured to receive one or more computing devices; and a respective lock configured to secure the third respective barrier to the rack in the closed position when in a locked state.
PALLET INTERFACE FOR DATA CENTER AND RACK INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEMS
A data center, a rack information handling system (RIHS) delivery kit, and a method provide for removing an RIHS from and delivering an RIHS to a data center. The data center includes an enclosure having a raised floor and a lateral opening. The lateral opening has a bottom edge that is aligned with the raised floor in order to transfer a rack information handling system (RIHS) through the lateral opening for a selected one of: (i) removing the RIHSs from the raised floor; and (ii) delivering the RIHS to the raised floor. The data center includes a pallet interface coupled to or integrated into an exterior edge of the raised floor and vertically presented to abut and engage a lateral edge of a roll-off rack shock pallet that supports the RIHS during transport.
Data center security systems and devices
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to systems, devices, and methods for data centers. In one example, a lockable enclosure for a data drive. The lockable enclosure includes a housing configured to house data drive circuitry and a port coupled to the housing and configured to connect to an external data device for transferring data from or to the data drive circuitry. The lockable enclosure also includes a sliding mechanism movable relative to the housing and configured to move within the housing between a position whereby the port is accessible to a position whereby the port is inaccessible.
