  • Patent number: 11266042
    Abstract: A refrigeration system and refrigeration method for a data center are disclosed. The refrigeration system includes: a first heat exchanger disposed on a back plate of an indoor cabinet of the data center, and a phase-change heat-exchange cooling tower disposed outdoor of the data center. The first heat exchanger and the phase-change heat-exchange cooling tower are communicated by a secondary refrigerant delivery pipeline. The phase-change heat-exchange cooling tower transfers heat carried in the secondary refrigerant into air and condenses the secondary refrigerant to a liquid again; the secondary refrigerant employs a phase-change heat-exchange working medium. An air pump is disposed in the phase-change heat-exchange cooling tower and on a by-pass of the secondary refrigerant delivery pipeline to pressurize the secondary refrigerant in gas-state delivered in the secondary refrigerant delivery pipeline to increase the condensing pressure for condensing the secondary refrigerant to a liquid again.

  • Patent number: 10888033
    Abstract: A cooling system for a data center includes: at least one liquid-cooling heat exchanger disposed above each of the integrated circuit boards to dissipate heat from a first heat source disposed on the integrated circuit board through an internal circulation coolant in the liquid-cooling heat exchanger; a liquid-cooling distributing device comprising a first pipeline in communication with the liquid-cooling heat exchanger, a second pipeline in communication with a first cooling tower, and a heat exchanger configured to cool the internal circulation coolant from the liquid-cooling heat exchanger to a first temperature through an external circulation coolant from the first cooling tower; and the first cooling tower configured to cool the external circulation coolant supplied via the second pipeline to the second temperature, wherein the first temperature is higher than the second temperature. As a result, energy consumption can be reduced and chip-level cooling can be achieved.

  • Patent number: 9097332
    Abstract: A split sprocket for belts or chains. The split sprocket comprises two sections that slide together along parallel slide tracks that are perpendicular to two opposite walls of the sprocket's bore. The slide track includes male T-shaped, V-shaped, or jigsaw-puzzle-shaped beams on one of the sections that slide into mating female slots in the other section. The mated slide tracks prevent the sections from separating in all directions except the separation direction along the slide tracks. A fastener through one of the sections into the other prevents the assembled sprocket sections from sliding apart along the slide tracks.
