Server cabinet and server system using the same

1. A server cabinet adapted for receiving a plurality of servers therein, the server cabinet comprising:

a top plate and a bottom plate parallel to the top plate;

a left side plate and a right side plate connecting with the top and bottom plates respectively; and

a curtain assembly disposed at a top of a front side of the server cabinet, the curtain assembly comprising a pivot and a curtain connected to the pivot, the curtain defining a plurality of through holes therein, the curtain being capable of unrolling out from around the pivot toward the bottom plate to thereby selectively partially or completely cover the front side of the server cabinet.

2. The server cabinet of claim 1 , wherein a supporting portion extends from each of top ends of the left and right side plates, each supporting portion defining a circular pivot hole therein, two ends of the pivot respectively extending through the pivot holes of the supporting portions, the pivot being rotatable relative to the supporting portions, an area of the curtain covering the front side of the server cabinet being adjusted by rotating the pivot.

3. The server cabinet of claim 1 , wherein the curtain assembly further comprises a rod connected to a bottom end of the curtain.

4. The server cabinet of claim 3 , wherein one pair of opposite fixing portions extend from the front sides of the left and right side plates, each fixing portion defining a cutout therein, two ends of the rod being received in the cutouts of the fixing portions.

5. The server cabinet of claim 1 , wherein the through holes are arranged in a plurality of matrixes along a height direction of the front side plate, the through holes in each matrix having the same diameter, the through holes in different matrixes having different sizes of diameters.

6. The server cabinet of claim 5 , wherein the diameter of each through hole in an upper half portion of the curtain adjacent to the top plate is smaller than the diameter of each through hole in a lower half portion of the curtain adjacent to the bottom plate.

7. The server cabinet of claim 5 , wherein the diameters of the through holes gradually increase from the upper half portion of the curtain adjacent to the top plate to the lower half portion of the curtain adjacent to the bottom plate.

8. The server cabinet of claim 5 , further comprising a rear side plate disposed at rear sides of the top and bottom plates and defining a plurality of through holes therein, the curtain assembly being disposed at a front side of the top plate.

9. The server cabinet of claim 8 , wherein the through holes in the rear side plate have a same diameter.

10. A server system comprising:

a server cabinet comprising:

a top plate and a bottom plate opposite to the top plate;

a left side plate and a right side plate connecting with the top and bottom plates respectively; and

a curtain assembly disposed at a top of a front side of the server cabinet, the curtain assembly comprising a pivot and a curtain connected to the pivot, the curtain defining a plurality of through holes therein, the curtain being capable of unrolling out from around the pivot toward the bottom plate to thereby selectively partially or completely cover the front side of the server cabinet;

a plurality of servers received in the server cabinet and stacked one on another; and

an airflow generating device disposed at a top end of the server cabinet, wherein when the curtain is unrolled a portion of airflow generated by the airflow generating device is blocked by the curtain at the top end of the server cabinet and flows toward a lower region of the server cabinet.

11. The server system of claim 10 , wherein a supporting portion extends from each of top ends of the left and right side plates, each supporting portion defining a circular pivot hole therein, two ends of the pivot respectively extending through the pivot holes of the supporting portions, the pivot being rotatable relative to the supporting portions, an area of the curtain covering the front side of the server cabinet being adjusted by rotating the pivot.

12. The server system of claim 10 , wherein the curtain assembly further comprises a rod connected to a bottom end of the curtain.

13. The server system of claim 12 , wherein one pair of opposite fixing portions extend from the front sides of the left and right side plates, each fixing portion defining a cutout therein, two ends of the rod being received in the cutouts of the fixing portions.

14. The server system of claim 10 , wherein the through holes are arranged in a plurality of matrixes along a height direction of the front side plate, the through holes in each matrix having the same diameter, the through holes in different matrixes having different sizes of diameters.

15. The server system of claim 14 , wherein the diameter of each through hole in an upper half portion of the curtain assembly adjacent to the top plate is smaller than the diameter of each through hole in a lower half portion of the curtain assembly adjacent to the bottom plate.

16. The server system of claim 14 , wherein the diameters of the through holes gradually increase from an upper half portion of the curtain assembly adjacent to the top plate to a lower half portion of the curtain assembly adjacent to the bottom plate.

17. The server system of claim 14 , wherein the server cabinet further comprises a rear side plate disposed at rear sides of the top and bottom plates, the rear side plate defining a plurality of through holes therein, the curtain assembly being disposed at a front side of the top plate.

18. The server system of claim 17 , wherein the through holes in the rear side plate have a same diameter.

19. The server system of claim 17 , wherein the rear side plate pivotedly connects one of the left and right side plates.

20. The server system of claim 10 , wherein at least one fan for absorbing airflow is disposed in each of the servers.
