Abstract

A plugboard heat dissipation system is provided. The system may include a plugboard, an enclosure, and an air supply apparatus that provides an air source for heat dissipation, a length of a first board edge on the plugboard is greater than a length of a second board edge, an output port is disposed on the first board edge, a spatial position of the second board edge is corresponding to that of the first board edge, a connecting part connected to another plugboard orthogonal to the plugboard is disposed, the output port is output out of an enclosure using a first end face of the enclosure, the connecting part is output out of the enclosure using a second end face of the enclosure. In the system, when space in which the plugboard is located is limited, the number of ports on the plugboard can be expanded.

Claims

a plugboard;

an enclosure; and

an air supply apparatus that provides an air source for heat dissipation,

wherein the plugboard is disposed in the enclosure,

wherein components are laid out on a surface of the plugboard,

wherein radiator accessories are mounted on some of the components,

wherein a length of a first board edge on the plugboard is greater than a length of a second board edge,

wherein an output port is disposed on the first board edge,

wherein a spatial position of the second board edge is corresponding to that of the first board edge,

wherein the output port is output out of the enclosure using a first end face of the enclosure,

wherein a connecting part is output out of the enclosure using a second end face of the enclosure,

wherein the plugboard is a right-angled trapezoid, the first board edge is a hypotenuse of the right-angled trapezoid, and the second board edge is a right-angle side of the right-angled trapezoid,

wherein a shape of a cutting surface of the enclosure in a direction parallel to the plugboard is the same as a shape of the plugboard and the first end face on the enclosure is parallel to a plane on which the output port is located,

wherein heat dissipation vents are disposed on the first end face of the enclosure, and

wherein the air supply apparatus is a fan that is disposed on the enclosure.

2. A plugboard heat dissipation system comprising:

an enclosure having a first end face and a second end face;

a plugboard is a right-angled trapezoid and disposed in the enclosure, wherein a first board edge of the plugboard is a hypotenuse of the right-angled trapezoid and a second board edge of the plugboard is a right-angle side of the right-angled trapezoid;

an air supply apparatus that provides an air source for heat dissipation, wherein the air supply apparatus is a fan that is disposed outside the enclosure;

a plurality of heat dissipation vents comprising air intake holes and air exhaust holes;

a plurality of components laid out on a surface of the plugboard;

a plurality of radiator accessories mounted on a portion of the plurality of components;

an output port is disposed on the first board edge of the plugboard, wherein the output port is output out of the enclosure using the first end face of the enclosure;

wherein a length of the first board edge is greater than a length of the second board edge of the plugboard,

wherein a spatial position of the second board edge corresponds to that of the first board edge,
