Abstract

A server chassis includes a housing and two support portions. A bottom plate of the housing includes a loading surface and a three-dimensional reinforcing pattern integrally formed on the loading surface for reinforcing the structural strength of the bottom plate. The support portions are respectively located on an outer surface of the sidewall of the housing. A coverage area of the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is greater than 10% of the total area of the loading surface. The three-dimensional reinforcing pattern includes a plurality of texture patterns regularly reproduced on the loading surface toward a linear axial direction. The three-dimensional reinforcing pattern also includes a plurality of first arc portions and a plurality of second arc portions arranged in a staggered alignment.

Claims (33)

1. A server chassis, comprising:

a housing, comprising:

a bottom plate having a loading surface and a three-dimensional reinforcing pattern, wherein the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is processed by a pattern die to be integrally formed on the loading surface for reinforcing structural strength of the bottom plate; and

two side walls respectively connected to two opposite sides of the loading surface and extending together in a same direction, wherein a bending mark is respectively formed between each of the side walls and the loading surface, and the loading surface and the side walls collectively define an accommodating space; and

two support portions respectively located on one side of each of the side walls opposite to the accommodating space and configured to be erected on a rack,

wherein a coverage area of the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is greater than 10% of a total area of the loading surface, the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is formed by arranging a plurality of chain-type serial texture groups side by side, each of the serial texture groups comprises a plurality of spaced-apart texture patterns, the texture patterns are regularly reproduced on the loading surface toward a linear axial direction, and a maximum height of each of the texture patterns is 0.5-0.8 mm,

wherein each of the serial texture groups comprises a plurality of first arc portions that are arranged at intervals along the linear axial direction to be a first series, and each of the first arc portions is formed with a single bracket shape having a first recess; and a plurality of second arc portions that are arranged at intervals along the linear axial direction to be a second series parallel to the first series, and each of the second arc portions is formed with a single bracket shape having a second recess, and the second arc portions of the second series are in staggered alignment with the first arc portions of the first series,

wherein an end of each of any two successively adjacent second arc portions is located in one of the first recesses, and an end of each of any two successively adjacent first arc portions is located in one of the second recesses,

wherein, in each two adjacent ones of the serial texture groups, one of the first arc portions in one of the two adjacent ones of the serial texture groups is aligned with one of the second arc portions in the other of the two adjacent ones of the serial texture groups.

2. The server chassis of claim 1 , wherein the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is an embossed pattern on the loading surface, and a surface of the bottom plate facing away from the loading surface is formed with a concave pattern.

3. The server chassis of claim 2 , further comprising:

at least one reinforcing convex hull formed on the loading surface in a protruding mode,

wherein the at least one reinforcing convex hull is located in the coverage area of the embossed pattern, and the embossed pattern is located on a surface of the at least one reinforcing convex hull.

4. The server chassis of claim 1 , wherein portions of any two successively adjacent texture patterns of each of the serial texture groups are continuous side by side.

5. The server chassis of claim 1 , wherein the linear axial direction passes through the bending marks.

6. The server chassis of claim 5 , wherein the linear axial direction passing through the bending marks is parallel to a side edge of the loading surface.

7. The server chassis of claim 1 , wherein the coverage area of the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern accounts for 90%-100% of the total area of the loading surface.

8. The server chassis of claim 1 , wherein the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern does not cover a centroid position of the loading surface.

9. A server chassis, comprising:

a housing, comprising:

a bottom plate having a loading surface and a three-dimensional reinforcing pattern, wherein the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is processed by a pattern die to be integrally formed on the loading surface for reinforcing structural strength of the bottom plate; and

two side walls respectively connected to two opposite sides of the loading surface and extending together in a same direction, wherein a bending mark is respectively formed between each of the side walls and the loading surface, and the loading surface and the side walls collectively define an accommodating space; and

two support portions respectively located on one side of each of the side walls opposite to the accommodating space and configured to be erected on a rack,

wherein the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is formed by arranging a plurality of chain-type serial texture groups side by side, each of the serial texture groups comprises a plurality of spaced-apart texture patterns, the texture patterns are regularly reproduced on the loading surface toward a linear axial direction, portions of any two successively adjacent texture patterns of each of the serial texture groups are continuous by side,

wherein each of the serial texture groups comprises a plurality of first arc portions that are arranged at intervals along the linear axial direction to be a first series, and each of the first arc portions is formed with a single bracket shape having a first recess; and a plurality of second arc portions that are arranged at intervals along the linear axial direction to be a second series parallel to the first series, and each of the second arc portions is formed with a single bracket shape having a second recess, and the second arc portions of the second series are in staggered alignment with the first arc portions of the first series,

wherein an end of each of any two successively adjacent second arc portions is located in one of the first recesses, and an end of each of any two successively adjacent first arc portions is located in one of the second recesses,

wherein, in each two adjacent ones of the serial texture groups, one of the first arc portions in one of the two adjacent ones of the serial texture groups is aligned with one of the second arc portions in the other of the two adjacent ones of the serial texture groups.

10. The server chassis of claim 9 , wherein the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern is an embossed pattern on the loading surface, and a surface of the bottom plate facing away from the loading surface has a concave pattern.

11. The server chassis of claim 10 , further comprising:

at least one reinforcing convex hull formed on the loading surface in a protruding mode, wherein the at least one reinforcing convex hull is located in a coverage area of the embossed pattern, and the embossed pattern is located on a surface of the at least one reinforcing convex hull.

12. The server chassis of claim 9 , wherein the linear axial direction passes through the bending marks.

13. The server chassis of claim 12 , wherein the linear axial direction passing through the bending marks is parallel to a side edge of the loading surface.

14. The server chassis of claim 9 , wherein the three-dimensional reinforcing pattern does not cover a centroid position of the loading surface.
