Dedusting apparatus and container data center including the same

Abstract

A dedusting apparatus is for a container data center. The container data center includes a mobile container and a number of servers mounted inside the container. The dedusting apparatus includes a sensor, an air shower, a timer, and a controller. The sensor is mounted at an entrance of the container to output a first sensed signal when a user enters the container through the entrance. The timer starts timing according to the first sensed signal. When the timer reaches a preset time, the timer outputs a time signal. The controller activates the air shower according to the first sensed signal and deactivates the air shower according to the time signal.

1 . A dedusting apparatus mounted in a container data center, the container data center comprising a mobile container and a plurality of servers accommodated in the container, the dedusting apparatus comprising:
 a sensor mounted at an entrance of the container, wherein when a user enters the container through the entrance, the sensor outputs a first sensed signal;   an air shower mounted at the entrance of the container;   a timer to start to time according to the first sensed signal, wherein when the timer reaches a preset time, the timer outputs a time signal; and   a controller to activate the air shower according to the first sensed signal and deactivate the air shower according to the time signal.   
     
     
         2 . The dedusting apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the sensor is a gas pressure sensor. 
     
     
         3 . The dedusting apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the sensor is an infrared sensor. 
     
     
         4 . The dedusting apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the sensor is a microwave sensor. 
     
     
         5 . A container data center comprising:
