VERTICAL EXHAUST DUCT FOR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT ENCLOSURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240032259 titled 'VERTICAL EXHAUST DUCT FOR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT ENCLOSURE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an arrangement of ducted exhaust equipment enclosures that includes a row of electronic equipment enclosures and a vertical wall rising from, and extending along, the tops of the electronic equipment enclosures. Each enclosure consists of a frame structure formed from support posts and cross members, and panels that partially enclose the frame structure to create a single compartment for mounting an electronic component. The top panel and upper portions of the frame structure form the top of the electronic equipment enclosure, which has a rectangular opening and an outer perimeter.

The vertical wall is formed by a row of air duct panels, each extending upward from a respective electronic equipment enclosure top and forming part of an air duct. The lower section of each air duct panel has the same width as the rectangular opening in the respective electronic equipment enclosure top and is aligned with the rear bound of the opening. This allows for direct and unobstructed fluid communication between the interior of the air duct and the interior of the single compartment.

  • The arrangement includes a row of electronic equipment enclosures with a vertical wall rising from the tops of the enclosures.
  • Each enclosure has a frame structure and panels that enclose a single compartment for mounting an electronic component.
  • The top panel and upper portions of the frame structure form the top of the enclosure, which has a rectangular opening.
  • The vertical wall is formed by air duct panels that extend upward from the enclosure tops and form part of an air duct.
  • The lower section of each air duct panel aligns with the rear bound of the rectangular opening, allowing for direct fluid communication between the air duct and the compartment.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Data centers and server rooms where efficient cooling and exhaust systems are required.
  • Industrial settings where electronic equipment needs to be enclosed and cooled.
  • Telecommunication facilities that house a large number of electronic components.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient cooling and exhaust of electronic equipment enclosures.
  • Improved airflow management and temperature control.
  • Reduction of heat buildup and potential damage to electronic components.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced cooling efficiency and improved performance of electronic equipment.
  • Better airflow management and temperature control, leading to increased reliability.
  • Space-saving design with integrated air ducts and enclosures.
  • Simplified installation and maintenance of electronic components.


Original Abstract Submitted

an arrangement of ducted exhaust equipment enclosures includes a row of electronic equipment enclosures and a vertical wall rising from, and extending along, the tops of the electronic equipment enclosures. each enclosure includes a frame structure formed from a plurality of support posts and cross members, and a plurality of panels, including a top panel, at least partially enclosing the frame structure and defining a single compartment for mounting an electronic component. the top panel and upper portions of the frame structure form a top of the electronic equipment enclosure, the electronic equipment enclosure top having a rectangular opening therein and also an outer perimeter. the rectangular opening has a front bound, a rear bound, and two side bounds, and has a side-to-side width that is at least 75% of a side-to-side width of the electronic equipment enclosure top perimeter. the vertical wall is formed by a row of air duct panels, each extending upward from a respective electronic equipment enclosure top and forming part of an air duct. the side-to-side width of a lower section of each air duct panel is substantially the same as the side-to-side width of the rectangular opening in the respective electronic equipment enclosure top, an the lower section of each air duct panel is disposed immediately adjacent, and aligned with, the rear bound of the opening in the respective electronic equipment enclosure top such that an interior of the air duct is in direct and unobstructed fluid communication with an interior of the single compartment.
