FR2638910A1 - Electrical power for computer rooms - Google Patents

Abstract

A) Modular device for electrically powering the computer and datacom hardware in an uninterrupted or virtually uninterrupted manner, and in all cases where hardware requires a backed-up or interruption-free power supply. B) The product is broken down into several modules, 4 then 5 to n, 5' to n' and 5'' to n''. The module 4 allows power supply via plural sources, 1 via the national grid, 2 via an electricity generating set, to the inverters 3, 3', 3'' and to 5, 5', 5''. The switches 5, 5' and 5'' also receive two sources, via the inverter 3, 3' or 3'', via the input switch 4. The modules 5, 5' and 5'' power respectively the modules 6 to n, then 6' to n', and again 6'' to n'' represented by small interchangeable mobile items. C) These small mobile items being able to power electrically an assembly: either computerised, or datacom or any other medical or industrial hardware.

Description

Electric supply for computer rooms
B) The present invention relates to electrical devices in front
uninterruptedly supplying equipment in the rooms
computer science
C) To date, there are no modular mobile devices
of electrical installation, specially designed to supply
uninterrupted way of computer or computer equipment
using electrical energy.

D) The device according to the invention allows those skilled in the art to
operate a modular compote electrical installation
in a few hours on a false computer floor so that
supply IT and telematics equipment in a way
uninterrupted, or almost uninterrupted.

E) The devices, objects of the invention comprise a first module
input including switch device or switch
inverter receiving an EDF current source and a current source
a generator; an even number of
departures, grouped in pairs; from each group of two starts, one
departure goes to an inverter, the other departure with the output of
the inverter will enter a second module called module
intermediate.

This intermediate module includes a switching device where
reversing switch also having an even number of departures to
n possible identical output modules - power supply
IT and where telematics.

 These output modules include a switching device or reversing switch with two inputs from the sources, a delayed lawn, optional phase transformers, three-phase and single-phase differential circuit breakers, per module the number of these circuit breakers may vary with the techniques, the diagram block diagram of FIG. 1 illustrates by way of example, an embodiment of the device according to the present invention. As shown, the diagram includes an input module including a main input change-over switch (4) supplied by two sources, either (1) EDF network, or (2) generator set and having three times two outputs respectively one to one of the static inverters (3) 3 'and 3 ", the other to one of the intermediate modules ( 5), 5 ′ and 5 "comprising a reversing switch. The intermediate modules (5), 5 'and 5 "therefore have two inputs, one of the block (4) and one of the inverter blocks (3), 3' where 3" and six outputs per block which each can supply a module of type (6) è (n) or (6 ') è (n') or (6 ") to (n") i.e. 18 modules maximum, half as much in the case of double inputs of modules of type (6) to (n) 9 modules are used for the user as shown in FIG. 1.

When a computer equipment is connected to an assembly of type (6) to (n) the power source can choose to be oriented on the inverters (3), (3 ') where (3 ") where one of the other two sources (1) where (2).

 The switching can be done either by switches or mechanical reversing switches or by static switches with a set of SCR diodes.

Fj The devices, objects of the invention, can be used in # ns
all cases where vital use where essential current
electric by a user requires either a minimum shutdown of
a few seconds or a maximum hour, i.e. no character stop
by the fact that the devices are capable of switching the source
suitable electricity towards manual use
where automatic, without interruption where almost everything installed in
a few hours. The most interesting applications can
be in the electricity supply of the lematic material and
computer science.

Claims (1)

 CLAIM Nodular device for supplying electrical power to the computer and tele.atic equipment with an uninterrupted or almost uninterrupted strap, and in all cases where a material requires uninterrupted or uninterrupted electrical alignment, characterized in that it consists of the input nodule (4 ) which includes a source switch or main changeover switch and an even number of circuit breakers to the outgoing lines of one or more intermediate iodles (5> which take a source changeover switch or switch and an even number of circuit breakers to the output nodules; one or more output nodules (6) which co-comprise a source reverser or switch arranged in such a way that each one is connected to two different sources: that is to say to two intermediate nodules (5) r these output nodules peddling three-phase or non-phase circuit breakers, optional transformers per phase and one or more inverter (3).
