A fan tray, for a fan module of a network device chassis, may include an inner assembly that includes an inner cassette, one or more fans connected to the inner cassette, a first latch connected to the inner cassette and configured to removably connect to an outer assembly of the fan tray, and a fan controller connected to the inner cassette and configured to control operation of the one or more fans. The outer assembly may be configured to receive and retain the inner assembly, and may include an outer cassette with one or more openings configured to communicate with the one or more fans, a second latch connected to the outer cassette and configured to removably connect to a rear portion of the network device chassis, and an adaptor connected to the outer cassette and configured to connect and provide power to the fan controller.
CASING AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
There is provided a casing, adapted to a board having a first air vent and a second air vent, including: a base plate; a first side plate and a second side plate provided on a first side and a second side of the base plate, respectively, with both the first side plate and the second side plate having hollowed-out patterns, and after the board being fixed in the casing, the first side plate being opposite to the first air vent, and the second side plate being opposite to the second air vent; a connection backplate on a fourth side of the base plate; and at least one insert plate on the base plate, with an extension direction in which the insert plate extends intersecting with an extension direction in which a third side of the base plate extends. An electronic device including the casing described above is further provided.
Card Cage System for Hybrid Cooling of Computer Circuit Cards
Disclosed herein is a computer circuit card cage system configured to house one or more computer circuit cards. The computer circuit card cage system can comprise a housing comprising one or more walls having one or more apertures formed therein. The computer circuit card cage system can further comprise one or more support rails supported on one or more of the walls and configured to support a computer circuit card. The one or more support rails can have one or more apertures formed therein to facilitate flow of a fluid through the one or more support rails. The flow path of the fluid is through the one or more apertures in the walls of the housing, and the one or more apertures in the support rails.
Mechanism for preventing reflow for fan flap failure
A fan assembly includes a socket to receive a fan module, a fan flap coupled to a first side wall of the socket, and an anti-reflow device coupled to a second side wall of the socket. The fan flap moves in a curved path between a first position and a second position. The anti-reflow device has an attachment feature, an embossed feature, and a stopping feature. The attachment feature attaches the anti-reflow device to the second side wall. The embossed feature extends through a first aperture in the second side wall. The stopping feature extends through a second aperture in the second side wall and contacts the fan flap. When the fan module is removed, the stopping feature retains the fan flap in the first position to block the socket and prevent air from reflowing through the socket.
HEAT DISSIPATION CABINET AND COMMUNICATION DEVICE
The heat dissipation cabinet includes a cabinet body, a cabinet door, and a baffle. The cabinet body includes a top wall and a bottom wall that are oppositely disposed, and a side wall connected between the top wall and the bottom wall. The cabinet door is installed at a position of the side wall in the cabinet body, and an air outlet passage is disposed in the cabinet body that is close to a position of the top wall. An air inlet component and an air outlet component are disposed in the cabinet door, and the air outlet component is located between the air inlet component and the top wall, and is located at one end of the air outlet passage. An electronic apparatus placement area is disposed in the cabinet body, and the baffle is disposed between the electronic apparatus placement area and the cabinet door.
Connector system
A connector system includes a first connector configured to be electrically connected to a predetermined device required for air discharge and to introduce air discharged from the predetermined device into the first connector, a first connection line surrounding a first cable electrically connected to the first connector, one side of the first connection line being connected to the first connector, and a second connector connected to an opposite side of the first connection line and electrically connected to the first cable, wherein the first connector, the first connection line, and the second connector are configured to communicate with each other such that the air introduced into the first connector is discharged through the second connector after passing through the first connection line.
SERVER
A server includes a rack, a chassis, and a fan module. The chassis includes a supporting tray, a bracket, and a first electrical connector. The supporting tray is detachably disposed into the rack along an assembling direction substantially perpendicular to a normal direction thereof. The bracket is disposed at an end of the supporting tray. The first electrical connector is disposed on the bracket. The first electrical connector at least has one end movable or detachable with respect to the bracket along a direction substantially perpendicular to the assembling direction. The fan module is detachably disposed in the bracket along the assembling direction. The fan module includes a fan rack, a fan unit, and a second electrical connector. The fan unit is disposed in the fan rack. The second electrical connector is disposed on the fan rack. The second electrical connector is electrically connected to the first electrical connector.
Pivotable removable fan module for a rackmount network device chassis
A fan tray, for a fan module of a network device chassis, may include an inner assembly that includes an inner cassette, one or more fans connected to the inner cassette, a first latch connected to the inner cassette and configured to removably connect to an outer assembly of the fan tray, and a fan controller connected to the inner cassette and configured to control operation of the one or more fans. The outer assembly may be configured to receive and retain the inner assembly, and may include an outer cassette with one or more openings configured to communicate with the one or more fans, a second latch connected to the outer cassette and configured to removably connect to a rear portion of the network device chassis, and an adaptor connected to the outer cassette and configured to connect and provide power to the fan controller.
CONTAINMENT SYSTEM FOR ELECTRONICS RACKS
According to one embodiment, a containment system for an electronics rack that includes a top structure that is movably coupled on top of the electronics rack, a first side structure that is movably coupled to a first side of the electronics rack, and a second side structure that is movably coupled to a second side of the electronics rack that is opposite to the first side, each of the structures is arranged to move along an axis and at least partially beyond either a front end or a back end of the electronics rack creating a containment region that is at least partially surrounded by the top structure, the first side structure, and the second side structure.
Front accessible fan tray with front-to-back cooling in a modular electronic system
In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a fan tray comprising a plurality of fans for cooling modules within a modular electronic system with airflow from a front of the modular electronic system to a back of the modular electronic system, and a hinge member for connecting the fan tray to a front panel of the modular electronic system with the fans positioned in front of the modules.
