Description

風扇單元總成Fan unit assembly

本發明是有關於一種應用於風扇單元之總成結構,且特別是有關於一種可簡易且快速組裝的風扇單元總成。The present invention relates to an assembly structure for use in a fan unit, and more particularly to a fan unit assembly that can be easily and quickly assembled.

伺服器係為網路系統中服務各電腦之核心電腦,可提供網路使用者需要之磁碟與列印服務等功能,同時也可供各用戶端彼此分享網路環境內之各項資源。伺服器之基本架構和一般之個人電腦大致相同,是由中央處理器(CPU)、記憶體(Memory)及輸入/輸出(I/O)設備等部件所組成,並由匯流排(Bus)在內部將其連接起來,透過北橋晶片連接中央處理器和記憶體,而透過南橋晶片連接輸入/輸出設備等。The server is the core computer that serves each computer in the network system. It can provide the functions of the disk and printing services required by the network users, and also allows each client to share resources in the network environment with each other. The basic structure of the server is roughly the same as that of a general personal computer. It consists of a central processing unit (CPU), a memory, and an input/output (I/O) device, and is connected by a bus. It is connected internally, connected to the central processing unit and memory through the north bridge chip, and connected to the input/output device through the south bridge chip.

伺服器大多仰賴多個散熱風扇之運行來進行散熱,而這些散熱風扇配置於一風扇框架中,以組成具有強大冷卻氣流之散熱風扇組。在伺服器中,傳統風扇模組的組立方式多是使用螺絲將風扇以及固定在機殼的固定架組立在一起。為了要讓風扇固定於固定架,通常是使用至少四個螺絲穿過固定架的四個角落並鎖入風扇。當組裝人員在鎖入螺絲時,有時會因為螺絲孔位置與機殼過近,使得操作空間受限,而不便進行鎖固動作,因此對於習知風扇模組固定於機殼的組立方式,確實有改進的必要。Most of the servers rely on the operation of multiple cooling fans to dissipate heat. These cooling fans are arranged in a fan frame to form a cooling fan group with a strong cooling airflow. In the server, the conventional fan module is mostly assembled by using screws to assemble the fan and the fixing frame fixed to the casing. In order to fix the fan to the mount, it is common to use at least four screws through the four corners of the mount and lock the fan. When the assembler locks the screw, sometimes the position of the screw hole is too close to the casing, so that the operation space is limited, and the locking action is not performed. Therefore, for the conventional fan module to be fixed to the casing, There is indeed a need for improvement.

The spacer 126b is located between the fixing portion 126a and the latch portion 126c and bears between the frame 124 and the fan 122. The latch portion 126c extends into the corresponding opening 128 of the fan 122. The latch portion 126c has a head portion 174 and a neck portion 176, wherein the head outer diameter D1 is substantially larger than the neck outer diameter D2. So, when the latching portion 126c is inserted into the corresponding opening 128, the head portion 174 passes through the opening 128, and the outer diameter D1 of the head is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the opening to be structurally interfered with the fan 122, and the neck portion 176 is Suitable for mating with the opening 128 such that the fan 122 is suspended from the frame 124 by the flexure 126.

第一板體182與第二板體184分別具有一上緣182a以及一下緣182b,且上緣182a設置有至少一上凸緣189,下緣182b設置有至少一下凸緣188。在本實施例中,上凸緣189以及下凸緣188的數量分別為兩個,且分別位於第一板體182與第二板體184的上緣182a以及下緣182b之左右兩側。當各風扇單元120被組裝至風扇設置區S1內時,下凸緣188承靠載板112。風扇單元總成10更包括一上蓋(未繪示),當上蓋罩覆風扇單元總成10時,風扇單元120僅靠上凸緣189承靠上蓋。由於風扇單元120僅靠上凸緣189以及下凸緣188承靠於上蓋以及載板112,而上凸緣189及下凸緣188由減震材料做成,故可藉由其之減震特性,減少風扇122運作時所產生的振動對電子裝置其他工作元件的影響。The first plate body 182 and the second plate body 184 respectively have an upper edge 182a and a lower edge 182b, and the upper edge 182a is provided with at least one upper flange 189, and the lower edge 182b is provided with at least a lower flange 188. In the present embodiment, the upper flange 189 and the lower flange 188 are respectively two in number, and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the upper edge 182a and the lower edge 182b of the first plate body 182 and the second plate body 184. When each fan unit 120 is assembled into the fan setting area S1, the lower flange 188 bears against the carrier 112. The fan unit assembly 10 further includes an upper cover (not shown). When the upper cover covers the fan unit assembly 10, the fan unit 120 only bears against the upper cover by the upper flange 189. Since the fan unit 120 bears only the upper flange 189 and the lower flange 188 against the upper cover and the carrier plate 112, and the upper flange 189 and the lower flange 188 are made of a shock absorbing material, the shock absorbing characteristics thereof can be utilized. The effect of the vibration generated by the operation of the fan 122 on other working elements of the electronic device is reduced.

如此,由於撓性件126具有吸震的特性,可吸收風扇122運轉時所產生的震動,並阻擋震動的傳遞路徑,使產生的震動不易傳遞至框架124以外,降低了風扇122運轉時產生的震動及噪音。此外,由於風扇122並未直接接觸底板及上蓋,故風扇122於工作狀態時,也不致影響電子裝置內之其他電子元件的運作。Thus, since the flexure 126 has shock absorbing characteristics, it can absorb the vibration generated when the fan 122 is operated, and block the transmission path of the vibration, so that the generated vibration is not easily transmitted to the outside of the frame 124, and the vibration generated when the fan 122 is operated is reduced. And noise. In addition, since the fan 122 does not directly contact the bottom plate and the upper cover, the fan 122 does not affect the operation of other electronic components in the electronic device when in the working state.

當使用者欲組裝風扇單元120時,只需將第一板體182與第二板體184上之撓性件126***風扇122上相對應之開孔128並與之嵌合,再將兩第三板體186分別固定第一板體182以及第二板體184上,使其位於風扇122之相對兩側且分別連接第一板體182以及第二板體184,即可使風扇122固定於框架124上。When the user wants to assemble the fan unit 120, the first plate body 182 and the flexure 126 on the second plate body 184 need only be inserted into the corresponding opening 128 of the fan 122 and fitted thereto, and then the two The three plates 186 are respectively fixed on the first plate body 182 and the second plate body 184 so as to be located on opposite sides of the fan 122 and respectively connected to the first plate body 182 and the second plate body 184, so that the fan 122 is fixed to the fan plate 122. On the frame 124.
