  • Patent number: 9572279
    Abstract: A container-type data center enabling transportation while having IT equipment stored therein, Vibration isolation table units laid on a floor surface in a storage unit of a container are composed of a lower plate and an upper plate, and multiple spring vibration isolators are fixed between the plates. The lower plates of adjacent vibration isolation table units are fixed via a lower fixing member, and upper palates of adjacent units are fixed via an upper fixing member. Two racks are loaded per single vibration isolation table unit. By adopting this configuration, even when shock is applied on the container, the vibration transmitted from the container can be absorbed by the spring vibration isolator. Thus, even when the container is transported with the IT equipment and the like stored in the rack, it becomes possible to prevent the occurrence of failures such as fluctuation of the IT equipment, fall of the equipment by vibration, or detachment of internal components.
