[0033] A cold storage source cylinder 5 is inserted into the heat dissipation cylinder. The cold storage source cylinder 5 is hollow and has a thread groove 53 milled on the inner wall. The thread of the thread groove 53 is inclined upward. A cold source return cylinder 9 is inserted into the cold storage source cylinder 5. A drain hole 91 is opened at the middle and lower part of the cold source return cylinder 9.

[0034] A screw member 61 is screwed into the top of the valve core 6, a liquid inlet 51 is opened in the bottom inner core, and a liquid discharge port 52 is opened on the outer wall; a sleeve ring 4 is bound around the liquid discharge port 52; the top of the cold source reflux cylinder 9 is connected with the liquid inlet 51; an annular cylindrical space is formed between the outer wall of the cold storage source cylinder 5 and the inner wall of the cold source reflux cylinder 9, and the top of the annular cylindrical space is connected with the liquid discharge port 52; the cold storage source cylinder 5 and the bottom of the cold source reflux cylinder 9 are fixed and limited by the sealing cover 10, and the position of the drain hole 91 is above the sealing cover 10;

[0035] A nut ring 11 is welded on the side wall of the tail end of the wind trough regulating cylinder 2, and the stepping motor 13 is fixed on the base 14. The rotor end of the stepping motor 13 is connected to the screw 12, and the top of the screw 12 is screwed into the nut ring 11; screw cylinders 141 are arranged at equal intervals on the base 14, and a screw member 61 is screwed into the screw cylinder 141;

[0036] The core components of the fairing 1, the wind slot adjustment cylinder 2, the heat sink 3, the cold storage source cylinder 5, the valve core 6, the cold source return cylinder 9, and the stepper motor 13 constitute a single heat dissipation module; a plurality of the single heat dissipation modules are fixed on the base 14 to form a heat dissipation module system frame, and the front end of the heat dissipation module system frame is placed on the air intake grille 15 at the front end of the car;

[0037] The monomer heat dissipation module is connected to the heat source lead-out member of the battery pack monomer of the electric vehicle; and each of the monomer heat dissipation modules corresponds to each of the battery pack monomers of the electric vehicle;

[0038] Each of the monomer cooling modules is provided with a liquid inlet 51 and a liquid outlet 52, and a separate diaphragm pump is connected in series in the cooling circuit system formed between each of the liquid inlet 51 and the liquid outlet 52;

[0039] Each control circuit of the stepper motor 13 and each control circuit of the diaphragm pump are controlled by the automobile cooling system chip assembly.

[0040] The heat dissipation tube is composed of 12 to 28 heat dissipation fins 3.

[0041] The outer wall of the top heat sink ring 8 is sleeved with a fairing 1.

[0042] The heat dissipation module system architecture is composed of 16-38 single heat dissipation modules.

[0043] The automobile cooling system chip assembly is connected to the temperature sensor of the automobile battery pack.

[0044] The distance between the monomer heat dissipation modules is between 3 and 8 centimeters.

[0045] The stroke range of the screw rod 12 is 5-12 cm.

[0046] A cold source liquid filling port is provided at the bottom of the cold source reflux cylinder 9.

[0047] The core of the present invention is that the single-cell heat dissipation module corresponds to each battery pack single cell of the electric vehicle. The design of this case is to perform single-cell corresponding heat dissipation treatment for battery packs in different areas, that is, the battery single-cell system corresponds to the heat dissipation system.

[0048] The design of the battery pack cooling system in this case fully considers the characteristics of automotive lithium batteries, that is, the need to maintain a constant temperature, generally between 25-35 degrees Celsius, so excessive or poor battery heat dissipation will have an adverse effect on battery performance.

[0049] The cooling system of this case also adopts the background technology of liquid cooling, which is different from the traditional liquid cooling technology in that its heat dissipation is controllable: in the design, the hot liquid generated by the battery system is poured into the cold source return tube 9 from the liquid inlet 51, and then flows from the drain hole 91 of the cold source return tube 9 to the outer wall of the cavity formed by the cold storage source tube 5 and the cold source return tube 9, and finally flows out from the drain port 52;

[0050] In the above cycle, since the outer wall of the cold storage source tube 5 is tightly attached to the heat dissipation tube formed by multiple heat sinks 3 arranged in a ring, its heat can be transferred out; and a threaded groove 53 is provided on the inside of the cold storage source tube 5, and the threaded groove 53 is inclined upward, so the refluxed liquid can form a vortex flow to ensure the uniform dissipation of the heat source.

[0051] Since the front end of the heat dissipation module system frame is placed on the air intake grille 15 at the front end of the car, when the vehicle is moving, external air flow will be brought into it, and the external air flow will flow through the heat sink 3 to take away the heat; when the signal of the temperature sensor of the car battery pack feedbacks that the battery pack is at an excessively high operating temperature, the car heat dissipation system chip assembly will send a command to the stepper motor 13, and the stepper motor 13 rotates the drive screw 12 to twist, so that the wind trough adjustment tube 2 is pulled out downward. Due to the withdrawal of the wind trough adjustment tube 2, the area of ​​the heat dissipation tube formed by the heat sink 3 exposed to the outside world increases, and its heat dissipation performance is also enhanced, so that the heat can be quickly reduced; conversely, the wind trough adjustment tube 2 is drawn into the heat dissipation tube formed by the heat sink 3 to reduce the area of ​​the heat dissipation tube exposed to the outside world.

[0052] This case did not apply for the electronic control system and circuit parts. This case mainly applied for the mechanical parts of the heat dissipation system. Therefore, based on the above description, the application for protection is made.
