  • Publication number: 20150271952
    Abstract: A power supply unit includes a housing, a dust-removing apparatus and a fan. The housing includes a rear panel and a top panel. The rear panel defines an air inlet. The fan is mounted to an outer side of the rear panel and aligned with the air inlet. The dust-removing apparatus includes a bracket and a filter. The bracket includes two support plates perpendicularly mounted on an inner side of the rear panel, and the supporting plates are located at two opposite ends of the air inlet. The support plates define a positioning groove parallel to the rear panel. The top panel defines an opening aligned with the positioning groove. The filter can be inserted into the positioning groove through the opening. The filter can be detached from the housing through the opening.

  • Publication number: 20140312190
    Abstract: A mounting structure includes a casing for receiving a power supply, a connecting member, and a fastener. The casing includes an end wall defining a mounting hole and a positioning hole below the mounting hole. The connecting member includes a connecting plate defining a through hole, and a hook. The fastener extends through the through hole of the connecting member, to latch in the mounting hole of the casing. The hook of the connecting member is latched into the positioning hole of the casing.

  • Patent number: 8644042
    Abstract: An alternate current rectifier circuit which includes a first diode, a second diode, a first transistor, a second transistor, a third transistor, and a fourth transistor is power saving. The first diode is connected to the first transistor and the fourth transistor; the second diode is connected to the second transistor and the third transistor. During a positive half cycle of the alternate current, the first transistor and the fourth transistor are switched on and the alternate current flows through the first diode, the first transistor, and the fourth transistor; during a negative half cycle of the alternate current, the second transistor and the third transistor are switched on and the alternate current flows through the second diode, the second transistor, and the third transistor.

  • Publication number: 20130141954
    Abstract: A power supply circuit includes an alternating current to direct current (AC/DC) converter, an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), a protection circuit, and a power supply unit (PSU). The AC/DC converter converts AC power from the UPS to DC power and transmits the DC power to the PSU through the protection circuit. The protection circuit includes a first resistor, a first switch, a first capacitor, and a microprocessor. At the initial time when the UPS first supplies power to the UPS, the microprocessor turns off the first switch; after a preset time has elapsed, the microprocessor turns on the first switch.

  • Publication number: 20120153720
    Abstract: A power system for a container data center includes an interruptible power supply, a power supply unit and a storage capacitor. The uninterruptible power supply rectifies the inputted AC voltage to a DC voltage output. The power supply unit converts the DC output voltage to a suitable voltage for a load. The storage capacitor is connected between the input terminal of power supply unit and the ground, and placed outside of the power supply unit.
