Abstract

The invention relates to an assembly comprising a rack server insert and a server rack for accommodating multiple rack server inserts. A rack installation carrier for supporting the rack server insert in the server rack is set up to be supported by telescopic rails. Two holders each with a first rail and a second rail are included in the rack installation carrier. The first rails are fixed to the rack server insert. The second rails are fixed to the server rack. The first rails freely and directly rest on the second rails so that the rack server insert is supported in the server rack.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. Assembly, comprising
a rack server insert,
a server rack for accommodating multiple rack server inserts,
and a rack installation carrier for supporting the rack server insert in the server rack, wherein the rack server insert is set up to be supported by telescopic rails in the server rack and wherein the rack installation carrier comprises two holders each having a first rail fixed to the rack server insert and each having a second rail fixed to the server rack, wherein the first rails freely and directly rest on the second rails so that the rack server insert is supported in the server rack and the rack installation carrier is free in the extension direction of the first rails as well as the second rails and free in a spatial direction that counteracts gravity.

2. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein an overall height of a first rail laid onto a second rail together with the second rail is less than a height unit of a server rack.

3. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first rails are fixed to the rack server insert by means of holding points provided for the telescopic rails and wherein the second rails are fixed to the server rack by means of holding points provided for the telescopic rails.

4. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the rack server insert has a height of a height unit or of an integral multiple of a height unit.

5. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein a width of a holder corresponds to a width of a telescopic rail.

6. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first rails and/or the second rails are made of a metal material.

7. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first rails have an S-shaped profile.

8. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein a profile of the second rails has a U-shaped region.

9. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the second rails have an S-shaped profile.

10. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the second do not extend into an installation space in which a chassis of the rack server insert is installed.

11. Assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first rail or the second rail of a holder has an opening and the respective other one of the two rails of said holder has a hook, wherein the hook engages in the opening when the rack server insert is entirely pushed into the server rack in order to restrict, in particular block, a movement direction of the first rail perpendicular to an insertion direction of the rack server insert.
