RACK ASSEMBLIES FOR SERVER CARRYING AND PIVOTING

摘要

Rack assemblies for server carrying and pivoting are disclosed. According to an aspect, a rack assembly includes a server rack including multiple stand columns. The server rack defines server spaces for receiving servers, and defines an opening for access of the server spaces. The rack assembly includes first and second slide rails supported by the stand columns and configured to move between a first position within a server spaces and a second position that is outside of the opening. Further, the rack assembly includes a first connector being configured to releasably attach a first side of the server to the first slide rail. The rack assembly also includes a second connector configured to attach the second side to the second slide rail, and configured to pivot about the second side when the first side is detached from the second slide rail.

1. A rack assembly comprising:
a server rack comprising a plurality of stand columns, defining a plurality of server spaces for receiving a plurality of servers, and defining an opening for access of the server spaces; a first slide rail and a second slide rail supported by the stand columns and that moves between a first position within one of the server spaces and a second position that is at least partially outside of the opening; a first connector that releasably attaches a first side of one of the servers to the first slide rail, wherein the first side of the one of the servers opposes a second side of the one of the servers; a second connector that:
attaches the second side of the one of the servers to the second slide rail, andpivots around the second side when the first side is detached from the first slide rail; anda cable and resistance mechanism, wherein the cable is attached at a first end to the resistance mechanism and the first slide rail,wherein the cable is attached at a second end to an end of the one of the servers, andwherein the cable and resistance mechanism resist a force pulling the cable in a direction of attachment to the end of the one of the servers.
