REFRIGERATING UNIT BUILT INTO RACK Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F25D9/00 H05K7/20 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: IT-service rack includes a refrigerating unit that comprises at least one refrigerating battery, at least one fan for air circulation through at least one refrigerating battery, a casing in the form of a rectangular prism, which includes at least one refrigerating battery and a fan that is arranged in the casing front zone, and the battery is arranged in the casing rear zone. The casing has dimensions allowing to build an IT-service rack into it and has the possibility of being attached to the rack. The refrigerating unit has the possibility of being installed as per a semi-recessed pattern, in which the fan projects beyond the rack boundaries. Both vertical side pieces of the refrigerating unit are equipped with grids in the casing front zone, in which the fan is located. The side pieces in the casing rear part are covered and include the refrigerating unit between each other. A data processing centre includes a row of posts, each of which includes one or more refrigerating units that are installed as per the semi-recessed pattern, with fans that project beyond the rack boundaries to provide local cooling.

EFFECT: use of this group of inventions allows creating a refrigerating unit that could be easily built into a data processing centre.
