Description

Joint floating fixed seat pressure relief structure

A joint floating fixed seat pressure relief structure, in particular a joint floating fixed seat pressure relief structure capable of reducing radial sliding resistance of a floating joint.

Currently, a plurality of servers are installed in a server cabinet. The distance between each server is quite narrow. In addition, the execution unit or computing unit of the server has greatly improved its computing performance, which has led to a significant increase in the heat generated by the computing unit. The heat can no longer be dissipated through a heat dissipation module of an air cooling method. Therefore, the industry uses water cooling to provide heat dissipation for each server in the server cabinet. Since the server has precise electronic components, various water cooling pipe configurations must avoid water leakage at each connection point to prevent damage to the electronic components caused by water leakage. In order to prevent water leakage, most of the server pipes use hard or metal pipes to configure the cooling water pipes, and a male and a female quick connector are installed on the server (active side) and the server cabinet (fixed side) for docking, so that the water pipes on the active side and the fixed side can be quickly connected or separated. Because the radial tolerance of the male and female connectors will be small when assembled, in order to facilitate the rapid correction of the radial tolerance of the two quick connectors, they will be placed near the fixed side. At least one guide post is arranged beside the position where the female connector is arranged on the fixed side (server cabinet), and a guide seat is arranged beside the position where the male connector is arranged on the movable side (server) at the position corresponding to the guide post, and the guide seat has a guide hole. When assembling the male and female connectors, the guide post is first inserted into the guide hole of the guide seat. Under the guidance of the guide post and the guide seat, the two quick connectors with radial tolerance are first guided until the two quick connectors are close to the coaxial center, and then the two connectors are aligned and connected in series. In addition, in order to save space inside the server cabinet, some businesses have omitted the use of guide pillars and guide seats, so they have specially set a fixed seat for radial offset correction for the radial offset of the two mutually connected male and female connectors, and set an inclined surface at the position where the inner hole of the female connector first contacts the male connector when docking. When combined with the fixed seat, it can provide radial offset correction when the male and female connectors are assembled. However, since the fixed seat and the adapter are connected through two gaskets corresponding to the fixed seat, Under the effect of relative clamping, a positive force is formed between the fixed seat and the adapter, so that the adapter can be kept in a fixed position relative to the fixed seat after radial movement. However, when the positive force generated by the two gaskets on the fixed seat is too large, it will cause too much resistance and make it difficult for the adapter to slide. On the contrary, when the positive force generated by the two gaskets is too small, the adapter cannot be kept in the position after movement. Therefore, how to improve the lack of knowledge is the primary goal of people in this skill.

Therefore, in order to effectively solve the above-mentioned problems, the main purpose of this invention is to provide a joint floating fixed seat pressure relief structure that can reduce the radial sliding resistance of the floating joint, thereby effectively controlling the positive force of the adapter seat relative to the fixed seat, reducing the resistance of the adapter seat relative to the fixed seat, and effectively controlling and maintaining the position of the adapter seat after moving relative to the fixed seat. To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, this invention provides a joint floating fixed seat pressure relief structure, which includes: a fixed seat, an adapter seat, a sliding gasket, an elastic member, a fixed element, a supporting gasket, and a spring; The fixing seat has a first side and a second side on opposite sides, and the fixing seat has an interior containing space between the first side and the second side, the first side is open, and the second side is provided with a through hole, the through hole and the containing space are connected; the adapter has a joint end and a sleeve end, and a buffer section is provided between the joint end and the sleeve end, the adapter passes through the containing space of the fixing seat through the sleeve end, and protrudes outward from the through hole of the fixing seat, and a platform is formed at the connection between the joint end and the buffer section; the sliding pad The elastic member is sleeved on the outside of the sleeve end of the adapter, and the elastic member is arranged between the second side of the fixed seat and the sliding pad; the fixing element is sleeved on the outside of the sleeve end of the adapter, providing the adapter with axial limit relative to the fixed seat, and allowing the adapter to move relative to the fixed seat in the radial direction; the abutting pad is sleeved on the buffer section of the adapter, and one side of the abutting pad has a convex portion abutting the aforementioned sliding pad; the spring is sleeved on the outside of the buffer section of the adapter, and the two ends of the spring abut one side of the abutting pad and the platform of the adapter respectively. By setting up the pressure-reducing structure of the floating fixed seat of the joint of this invention, the relative positive force between the adapter and the fixed seat can be effectively controlled, so as to reduce the resistance of the radial movement between the two and ensure that the adapter remains in the position after the movement.

The above-mentioned purpose of this invention and its structural and functional characteristics will be explained according to the preferred embodiment of the attached drawings. Please refer to Figures 1, 2, 3A, and 3B, which are the three-dimensional decomposition and assembly cross-sectional views and partial cross-sectional views of the first embodiment of the joint floating fixed seat pressure relief structure of this invention. As shown in the figure, the joint floating fixed seat pressure relief structure includes: a fixed seat 1, an adapter seat 2, a sliding gasket 3, a fixed element 4, a supporting gasket 5, a spring 6, and an elastic member 8. The fixing base 1 has a first side 11 and a second side 12 on opposite sides. The fixing base 1 has a containing space 13 inside. The containing space 13 is located between the first side 11 and the second side 12. The first side 11 has a through hole 111 to make the first side 11 open. The through hole 111 is connected to the containing space 13. The second side 12 is a closed side with a through hole 121. The through hole 121 is connected to the containing space 13. The two ends of the adapter 2 have a joint end 21 and a sleeve end 22, respectively, and a buffer section 23 is provided between the joint end 21 and the sleeve end 22. The adapter 2 has a channel 24 inside to connect the joint end 21 and the sleeve end 22. The adapter 2 passes through the accommodating space 13 of the fixed seat 1 through the sleeve end 22, and protrudes outward from the through hole 121 of the fixed seat 1. A platform 25 is formed at the connection between the joint end 21 and the buffer section 23, and the inner diameter of the through hole 121 is larger than the sleeve end 22. The joint end 21 of the adapter 2 can be connected to a male connector 7, and the joint end 21 of the adapter 2 can also be connected to a pipeline or other structures or components without limitation, or the joint end 21 can also extend another structure to be connected with other components. The sliding pad 3 is sleeved on the outer side of the sleeve end 22 of the adapter 2. The elastic member 8 is sleeved adjacent to the outer side of the sleeve end 22 of the adapter 2 and is arranged between the second side 12 of the fixed seat 1 and the sliding pad 3. A groove 122 can also be opened on the outer side of the second side 12 of the fixed seat 1 for the elastic member 8 to be arranged. The elastic member 8 is a component made of a material with elastic characteristics, such as an elastic gasket, a rubber ring, etc. The fixed element 4 is sleeved on the outer side of the sleeve end 22 of the adapter 2 and fits with the sliding pad 3 to provide the adapter 2 with axial limitation relative to the fixed seat 1 and allow the adapter 2 to move radially relative to the fixed seat 1. The fixed element 4 can be a buckle or a nut or other components. The abutting pad 5 is sleeved on the buffer section 23 of the adapter 2. One side of the abutting pad 5 has a convex portion 51 that abuts against one side of the aforementioned sliding pad 3, so that a spacing space B is formed between the abutting pad 5 and the sliding pad 3. Through the abutment of the convex portion 51, the convex portion 51 of the abutting pad 5 and the abutting pad 5 can be formed in an integral manner (as shown in Figure 3A) or in a non-integrated manner (as shown in Figure 3B), but it is not limited thereto. The spring 6 is sleeved on the outside of the buffer section 23 of the adapter 2, and the two ends of the spring 6 respectively abut against one side of the abutment pad 5 and the platform 25 of the adapter 2. The spring 6 provides an axial compression stroke so that the adapter 2 can withstand axial tolerances and allow the adapter 2 to be axially fine-tuned and tilted. Please refer to 4 and 5 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the operation of the decompression structure of the floating fixed seat of the joint of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the protrusion 51 of the abutting gasket 5 is relatively pressed against one side of the sliding gasket 3, and a spacing space B is formed between the two. The spacing space B prevents the abutting gasket 5 and the sliding gasket 3 from excessively clamping the inner and outer surfaces of the second side 12 of the fixed seat 1, thereby causing inconvenience in radial displacement. The elastic member 8 disposed between the outer side of the second side 12 of the fixed seat 1 and the sliding gasket 3 is mainly used to control the positive force of the adapter seat 2 and the fixed seat 1. The elastic member 8 provides a positive force to support the sliding pad 3 and the fixed seat 1 through its own elastic characteristics, thereby controlling the positive force (friction force) between the sliding pad 3 and the fixed seat 1, and avoiding excessive friction between the two to hinder the radial movement of the adapter 2 relative to the fixed seat 1. The elastic member 8 controls the size of the positive force to maintain the adapter 2 at the final position of the displacement after the radial displacement relative to the fixed seat 1, and the relative displacement between the fixed seat 1 and the adapter 2 can be smooth. The main purpose of the invention is to improve the resistance of the adapter seat 2 and the fixed seat 1 during radial movement. When the convex portion 51 between the sliding pad 3 and the abutting pad 5 is pressed against each other, the friction force between the sliding pad 3 and the fixed seat 1 can be controlled to avoid excessive resistance between the sliding pad 3, the abutting pad 5 and the fixed seat 1, which makes it difficult to perform the radial offset operation between the adapter seat 2 and the fixed seat 1. On the contrary, if If the positive force is too small or there is no positive force, the adapter 2 will fall due to gravity or cannot maintain the final position after movement. Therefore, through the combination of the supporting pad 5, the sliding pad 3 and the elastic member 8 of the invention, the sliding resistance between the sliding pad 3 and the fixed seat 1 is controlled and adjusted, and the adapter 2 can stop at any radially offset position after radial movement, thereby improving the defects caused by improper positive force control.
