[0002] The heat sink assembly is composed of a heat sink and a coolant. The heat sink is a metal plate with good thermal conductivity, usually made of aluminum alloy or copper. The coolant is a liquid with good thermal conductivity, usually made of water or ethylene glycol.

[0003] At present, in high-power electronic devices, multiple parts need to be cooled, so multiple sets of heat sinks are needed. Multiple sets of heat sinks are distributed in different parts of the electronic equipment to ensure that heat can be evenly dissipated from the equipment. However, since some parts have high heating temperatures and some parts have low heating temperatures, if the coolant cannot be distributed well, it will lead to uneven heat dissipation. In order to solve such problems, more complex designs and control technologies are usually adopted, such as using multiple pumps and valves to achieve more precise coolant flow control, or using sensors to monitor the temperature and pressure of the coolant so as to adjust the coolant flow and pressure in time. This undoubtedly increases the cost of equipment, makes maintenance difficult, and increases maintenance costs. Summary of the invention

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0019] The implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0020] In this embodiment: Reference Figure 1-3 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present invention is provided.

[0021] The cooling liquid distribution assembly of the heat sink of this embodiment includes a cooling fan 1, a liquid cooling pump 2 and a cooling liquid distribution assembly 3 of the heat sink, wherein the cooling liquid distribution assembly 3 of the heat sink includes a plurality of distribution assemblies 31, wherein a pipe rack 33 and an air bin 32 are respectively arranged at the top and the bottom of the distribution assembly 31; An elastic hose 331 is arranged inside the pipe rack 33, and a second liquid inlet joint 3311 and a second liquid outlet joint 3312 extending to the outside of the cooling liquid distribution assembly 3 of the heat sink are arranged at both ends of the elastic hose 331, respectively. The cooling liquid enters the elastic hose 331 from the second liquid inlet joint 3311 and flows out from the second liquid outlet joint 3312. A guide rail 332 is arranged on the inner side of the bottom of the pipe rack 33, and a sliding bracket 3253 is sleeved on the outside of the air chamber 32. An extrusion roller 3252 that slides in the guide rail 332 is installed on the inner side of the bottom of the sliding bracket 3253. The extrusion roller 3252 slides on the guide rail 332 and is used to squeeze and release the elastic hose 331 to adjust the flow of the cooling liquid entering the elastic hose 331. A thermal conductive sheet 321 is installed at the bottom of the gas bin 32, and a heat exchange tube 3213 is laid inside the thermal conductive sheet 321. The two ends of the heat exchange tube 3213 are respectively provided with a first liquid outlet joint 3211 and a first liquid inlet joint 3212 extending to the outside of the coolant distribution assembly 3 of the heat sink. The coolant enters the heat exchange tube 3213 from the first liquid inlet joint 3212 and flows out from the first liquid outlet joint 3211, so that the heat of the coolant is exchanged with the heat exchange tube 3213. A plurality of thermal conductive columns 322 that penetrate and extend to the inside of the gas bin 32 are installed on the top of the thermal conductive sheet 321. The inside of the gas bin 32 is filled with heat expansion gas. The expansion gas is preferably carbon dioxide and nitrogen, which has a high thermal expansion coefficient and is safe. The top of the gas bin 32 is connected to a corrugated airbag 324 through the air pipe 323. The corrugated airbag 324 is used to push the sliding bracket 3253 to slide, thereby pushing the extrusion roller 3252 to slide.

[0022] Among them, the blowing part of the heat dissipation fan 1 is equipped with a plurality of heat dissipation fins 11, and a coil 12 is clamped in the heat dissipation fin 11. A liquid outlet pipe 6 is connected between the liquid outlet end of the coil 12 and the liquid inlet end of the liquid cooling pump 2. The other end of the liquid outlet pipe 6 is connected to the liquid inlet end of the liquid cooling pump 2. After the coolant is pumped into the coil 12 through the liquid cooling pump 2, it is cooled by the heat dissipation fan 1 in cooperation with the heat dissipation fins 11.

[0023] Furthermore, in the attached Figure 2 In the embodiment, a plurality of distribution components 31 are connected to a liquid outlet branch pipe 51 through the first liquid outlet joint 3211, a plurality of the liquid outlet branch pipes 51 are connected in parallel with the liquid inlet end of the coil 12, a plurality of distribution components 31 are connected to a liquid inlet branch pipe 71 through the second liquid inlet joint 3311, a plurality of the liquid inlet branch pipes 71 are connected in parallel with the liquid outlet end of the liquid cooling pump 2, and a second liquid guiding pipe 7 is connected. This enables a group of heat dissipation fans 1 and a liquid cooling pump 2 to realize the circulation operation of the cooling liquid for a plurality of distribution components 31 under the action of the liquid outlet branch pipe 51 and the liquid inlet branch pipe 71; It is worth noting that in the attached Figure 4-5 In the embodiment, the guide rail 332 is tilted downwardly along a side away from the corrugated airbag 324, and the two end surfaces of the squeezing roller 3252 respectively contact the top of the guide rail 332 and slide along the guide rail 332, so that the squeezing roller 3252 will continuously squeeze the elastic hose 331 or continuously release the elastic hose 331 during the sliding process along the guide rail 332, so as to achieve the above-mentioned regulation of the flow rate of the coolant passing through the elastic hose 331.

[0024] In order to adapt to the sliding process of the squeezing roller 3252 to rise and fall along with the guide rail 332, a sleeve plate 325 is further provided at the end of the corrugated airbag 324, and a telescopic frame 3251 is slidably installed on the inner side of the top of the sleeve plate 325. The squeezing roller 3252 is connected through the rotating shaft of the telescopic frame 3251. When the squeezing roller 3252 rises along with the guide rail 332, the telescopic frame 3251 extends out from the sleeve plate 325. When the squeezing roller 3252 falls along with the guide rail 332, the telescopic frame 3251 retracts into the sleeve plate 325, which does not affect the squeezing roller 3252 to achieve pushing along with the expansion and contraction of the corrugated airbag 324; It is worth noting that a return spring 326 is arranged between the other side of the sleeve plate 325 away from the corrugated airbag 324 and the inner wall of one side of the distribution component 31. When the corrugated airbag 324 expands, the return spring 326 will be squeezed. When the corrugated airbag 324 contracts, the return spring 326 will continue to lose the applied force and return to its original position, pushing the extrusion roller 3252 to return to its original position.

[0025] In another embodiment, the distribution assembly 31 is located at the top bearing of the pipe rack 33 and is connected to a manual adjustment rod 311. The external thread of the manual adjustment rod 311 is connected to a shift block 312. The shift block 312 is in conflict with the side of the sliding bracket 3253 close to the corrugated airbag 324. In an emergency, the manual adjustment rod 311 can be rotated to drive the shift block 312 to slide, thereby pushing the sliding bracket 3253 to drive the extrusion roller 3252 to release the elastic hose 331, thereby increasing the flow of coolant into the heat sink 4.

[0026] At the same time, contacts 3254 are installed on the side of the sliding bracket 3253 facing away from the corrugated airbag 324 and the inner wall of one side of the distribution component 31. The two contacts 3254 are arranged opposite to each other. When the two contacts 3254 are released, the external warning light and the buzzer can be turned on. At this time, the corrugated airbag 324 is in its maximum expansion, which means that the temperature of the local equipment of the heat sink 4 server has reached the maximum level of the cooling equipment, and manual heat dissipation intervention is required.

[0027] This embodiment also provides a heat sink, including a plurality of heat sinks 4, which are used to be attached to the heat dissipation parts of the cooling components required by the server. A liquid injection pipe 8 is connected between the liquid inlet end of the heat sink 4 and the second liquid outlet joint 3312, and a liquid return pipe 9 is connected between the liquid outlet end of the heat sink 4 and the first liquid inlet joint 3212. The coolant is distributed through the distribution component 31 through the liquid injection pipe 8 and the liquid return pipe 9.

[0028] Working principle: When the coolant exchanged by the heat sink 4 enters the distribution component 31 through the return pipe 9, the heat will be exchanged with the heat exchange tube 3213, so that the heat will be transferred to the air bin 32 through the heat conduction column 322 above the thermal conductive plate 321, so that the expanding gas in the air bin 32 will expand due to the heat, thereby prompting the corrugated airbag 324 to expand and push the squeezing roller 3252 to slide on the inclined guide rail 332, and the corrugated airbag 324 will be reset by the reset spring 326 when it contracts. At this time, the sliding position of the squeezing roller 3252 will expand and contract with the corrugated airbag 324, thereby changing the degree of squeezing of the elastic hose 331 and adjusting the flow of the coolant in the elastic hose 331. On the basis of not increasing the equipment cost, it is ensured that the heat can be evenly dissipated from the equipment, and the coolant is automatically distributed to the heat sinks 4 with different heat to make the heat dissipation uniform.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
