Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radars, and in particular to a heat dissipation structure and a heat dissipation method of a vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radar integrated lamp group. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, in order to improve the design freedom of vehicle lamps equipped with radars and to improve the reliability of radar data obtained by the radars, the vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radars are moved directly from the original installation position in the vehicle bumper to the vehicle lamp cover, thereby improving the integration of the vehicle lamps and simplifying the structure of the millimeter-wave radar module. At the same time, no heat dissipation method for the millimeter-wave radar module in the lamp has been found.
[0003] Although the existing technology integrates the millimeter-wave radar module inside the car light, simplifying the radar structure while improving the integration of the car light, the current solution is to install the millimeter-wave radar module directly in the car light cover. Given that the operating temperature inside the lampshade exceeds 100 degrees Celsius under extreme working conditions, not only will the reliability and durability of the millimeter-wave radar module be affected, but the temperature rise will also affect the dielectric constant of the circuit board and the antenna cover, causing frequency deviation in the antenna's operating frequency band and deteriorating the antenna's operating performance.
[0004] It can be seen that the existing millimeter wave radar module for headlights has the following main problems:
[0005] 1. The maximum temperature of the lighting unit during operation will exceed 100 degrees Celsius, which can easily transfer heat to other components in the same closed lampshade, deteriorating the working environment of other components;
[0006] Second, due to the serious heat generation of the lighting structure of the vehicle headlights, the working environment of the millimeter-wave radar in the same closed lampshade as the lighting unit will deteriorate after being heated. In addition, the module itself will have heat generation and heat dissipation problems in a closed environment, which will affect the reliability and durability of the millimeter-wave radar module.
[0007] 3. When the operating temperature of the millimeter-wave radar module continues to rise, the dielectric constant of the PCB board and the antenna cover in the radar module will change, causing the antenna's operating frequency band to shift and deteriorating the antenna's operating performance. Summary of the invention
[0008] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0032] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, and can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0033] The heat dissipation structure and heat dissipation method of the vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radar integrated light group according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] See Figure 5 A method for dissipating heat of an integrated lamp group of a vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radar, wherein a temperature sensor 86 built into a liquid cooling block 8 monitors the temperature of a cold head 80 in real time, and determines whether the temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 is within a threshold TH range; when the temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 is lower than the threshold TH, the liquid cooling system does not work; when the temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 is not lower than the threshold TH, the liquid cooling system works.
[0035] The value range of the threshold value TH is 40 degrees Celsius ≤ threshold value TH ≤ 80 degrees Celsius. The temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 will correspond to the following four modes, as follows:
[0036] Mode 1: When the temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 is lower than 40 degrees Celsius, that is, when the temperature t is less than 40 degrees Celsius, the liquid cooling system does not work.
[0037] Mode 2: When the temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 is between 40 degrees Celsius and 60 degrees Celsius, that is, when 40 degrees Celsius ≤ temperature t<60 degrees Celsius, the liquid cooling system is powered on, the water pump 83 is started, the cooling fins 91 participate in heat dissipation, and the fan 92 does not run.
[0038] Mode three: When the temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 is between 60 degrees Celsius and 80 degrees Celsius, that is, when 60 degrees Celsius ≤ temperature t<80 degrees Celsius, the liquid cooling system is powered on, the water pump 83 is started, the cooling fins 91 participate in heat dissipation, and the fan 92 operates in the first gear.
[0039] Mode 4: When the temperature t detected by the temperature sensor 86 is higher than or equal to 80 degrees Celsius, that is, when the temperature t≥80 degrees Celsius, the liquid cooling system is powered on, the water pump 83 is started, the cooling fins 91 participate in heat dissipation, and the fan 92 operates in the second gear.
[0040] The liquid cooling system includes a millimeter wave radar module 7, a liquid cooling block 8 and a liquid cooling box 9. The heat generated by the millimeter wave radar module 7 and the heat absorbed from the environment are directly transferred to the liquid cooling block 8. The heated coolant in the liquid cooling block 8 and the coolant after heat dissipation in the liquid cooling box 9 circulate.
[0041] The present invention also provides a vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radar integrated lamp group heat dissipation structure for realizing a vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radar integrated lamp group heat dissipation method, comprising a lamp 1, wherein a first working compartment 2, a second working compartment 3 and a third working compartment 10 are arranged in the inner cavity of the lamp 1; a first partition 6 is arranged between the first working compartment 2 and the second working compartment 3; a second partition 12 is arranged between the second working compartment 3 and the third working compartment 10; a third partition 13 is arranged between the first working compartment 2 and the third working compartment 10; the inner and outer portions of the first partition 6 arranged between the first working compartment 2 and the second working compartment 3 are Both sides are paved with insulation layers or sprayed with insulation materials, so that the first partition 6 becomes an isolation plate that blocks heat transfer from the first working cabin 2; a lamp unit for vehicle lighting is arranged in the first working cabin 2; a millimeter-wave radar module 7 and a liquid cooling block 8 are arranged in the second working cabin 3, and the liquid cooling block 8 is installed on the millimeter-wave radar module 7; a liquid cooling box 9 is arranged in the third working cabin 10; a liquid cooling water pipe 11 is installed on the liquid cooling block 8, and the other end of the liquid cooling water pipe 11 passes through a second partition 12 arranged between the second working cabin 3 and the third working cabin 10 and is connected to the liquid cooling box 9.
[0042] The lamp unit is divided into a first lamp unit 4 and a second lamp unit 5; of course, it should be noted that the number of lamp units is not limited, and can be one, or two or more. The millimeter wave radar module 7 is fixed to the second partition 12 through a bracket 14. The second partition 12 is provided with a water pipe through hole for passing the liquid cooling water pipe 11, and a first sealing rubber ring 15 is provided in the water pipe through hole.
[0043] The liquid cooling block 8 is installed on the back of the millimeter wave radar module 7; the liquid cooling block 8 includes a cold head 80, an outer shell 81, a second sealing rubber ring 85 and a temperature sensor 86. The outer shell 81 is made of plastic material. The cold head 80 is arranged at the front end of the outer shell 81, and the second sealing rubber ring 85 is arranged in the water pipe through hole at the rear end of the outer shell 81. The cold head 80 is located at one end close to the millimeter wave radar module 7. The outer shell 81 is filled with a first coolant 84, and a micro-water channel 82 is installed at the front end of the inner cavity of the outer shell 81. A water pump 83 is installed at the rear end of the inner cavity of the outer shell 81. It should be noted that the temperature sensor 86 is located between the cold head 80 and the outer shell 81.
[0044] The liquid cooling box 9 includes a water tank 90, a heat sink fin 91 and a fan 92, wherein the fan 92 has two gears, namely, the first gear and the second gear. The water tank 90 is filled with a second coolant 94, the heat sink fin 91 is installed on the back of the water tank 90, the fan 92 is installed on the back of the heat sink fin 91, and a third sealed rubber ring 93 is provided in the water pipe through hole at the front end of the water tank 90.
[0045] There are two liquid cooling water pipes 11 , one end of which is connected to the outer shell 81 , and the other end of which is connected to the water tank 90 .
[0046] See Figure 1The vehicle lamp 1 can be a headlight or a taillight. The lamp 1 has three working compartments, namely the first working compartment 2, the second working compartment 3, and the third working compartment 10. The first working compartment 2 is the lighting unit working compartment, which contains the first lamp unit 4 and the second lamp unit 5. These lamp units are responsible for the lighting of the vehicle lamp. The second working compartment 3 is the working compartment of the millimeter-wave radar module 7, and it is also the heat-insulating compartment of the millimeter-wave radar module 7. There is a first partition 6 between the second working compartment 3 and the first working compartment 2. The inner and outer sides of the first partition 6 are paved with a heat-insulating layer or sprayed with heat-insulating materials to block the heat transfer of the first working compartment 2. The second working compartment 3 is equipped with a millimeter-wave radar module 7 and a liquid cooling block 8 as the main components. The millimeter-wave radar module 7 is fixed to the inner side wall of the lampshade of the second working compartment 3 by a bracket 14 on the premise of ensuring a preset angle with the vehicle lampshade. One side of the liquid cooling block 8 is fitted on the back of the millimeter wave radar module 7, and two liquid cooling water pipes 11 are installed on the other side. The liquid cooling water pipes 11 are connected to the liquid cooling box 9 in the working cabin 10 through the sealing rubber ring between the cabin body partitions of the second working cabin 3 and the third working cabin 10. The third working cabin 10 mainly has a liquid cooling box 9 inside. The side of the liquid cooling box 9 connected to the liquid cooling water pipe 11 is installed toward the second working cabin 3, which is convenient for connecting with the liquid cooling block 8 in the first working cabin 2. The other side of the liquid cooling box 9 is installed toward the open hole cabin wall side of the third working cabin 10, which is convenient for accelerating the internal and external air convection and accelerating the heat dissipation speed when the fan is turned on.
[0047] See Figure 2 , is a heat dissipation flow chart of an active liquid cooling system. The heat generated by the millimeter wave radar module 7 during operation and the heat absorbed from the environment are directly transferred to the liquid cooling block 8. The circulating first coolant 84 takes away the heat in the liquid cooling block 8 and flows through the water tank 90. The heat dissipation fins 91 help the second coolant 94 in the water tank 90 to dissipate heat. When the fan 92 is in the start mode, it can further accelerate air convection to help the second coolant 94 dissipate heat. After the heat is dissipated in the water tank 90, the second coolant 94 continues to circulate into the liquid cooling block 8 to help the millimeter wave radar module 7 dissipate heat.
[0048] See Figure 3, is the internal structure diagram of the liquid cooling block 8, the liquid cooling block 8 has a cold head 80, an outer shell 81, a micro-water channel 82, a water pump 83, a first coolant 84 and a temperature sensor 86 as main components, wherein the bottom of the cold head 80 is made of copper, and the liquid cooling block 8 is connected to the liquid cooling box 9 through a second sealing rubber ring 85 and a liquid cooling water pipe 11. The cold head 80 is directly connected to the millimeter wave radar module 7, and most of the heat transferred by the radar is concentrated on the cold head 80. The micro-water channel 82 is directly connected to the cold head 80 and immersed in the first coolant 84. After the water pump 83 is started, it drives the internal first coolant 84 to exchange internal and external flows through the liquid cooling water pipe 11. The internal first coolant 84 flows through the micro-water channel 82 during the flow process. The micro-water channel 82 has a larger heat dissipation area than the cold head 80. The first coolant 84 quickly takes away the heat on the micro-water channel 82 during the flow, helping the micro-water channel 82 and the cold head 80 to cool down quickly, achieving a heat dissipation effect.
[0049] See Figure 4 , is the internal structure diagram of the liquid cooling box 9, which has a main structure including a water tank 90, a heat sink fin 91 and a fan 92, and is connected to the liquid cooling block 8 through a third sealed rubber ring 93 and a liquid cooling water pipe 11. The second coolant 94 in the water tank 90 is driven by the water pump 83 built into the liquid cooling block 8 to exchange flow with the first coolant 84, and the heated coolant flows into the water tank 90, while the heat sink fin 91 effectively transfers the heat inside the water tank 90 through the huge contact area with the air. When the fan 92 is turned on, the convection between the internal and external air can be accelerated to help further dissipate heat.
[0050] It should be noted that see Figure 1 It is also possible to dissipate heat by replacing the back of the millimeter-wave radar module 7 with a traditional heat sink fin, where the liquid cooling block 8 is installed, but the heat dissipation effect of this method is relatively limited.
[0051] A vehicle-mounted millimeter-wave radar integrated lamp group heat dissipation structure and heat dissipation method of the present invention integrates the millimeter-wave radar module 7 inside the lamp group, but installs the lighting unit and the millimeter-wave radar module 7 in an independent working compartment, that is, the millimeter-wave radar module 7 is installed in a heat-insulating compartment for work, which effectively blocks the heat source; a heat-insulating layer is laid or a heat-insulating material is sprayed on the baffle of the heat-insulating compartment and the lighting module where the millimeter-wave radar module 7 is installed, so as to further improve the heat-insulating effect of the heat-insulating compartment; for part of the heat transferred from the lighting unit plus the heat generated by the millimeter-wave radar itself, the millimeter-wave radar module 7 is dissipated through an integrated liquid-cooled heat dissipation device, which is not only more effective than traditional heat dissipation fins, but also more suitable for scenes such as lampshades that require a closed working environment than air-cooled heat dissipation devices that require external heat dissipation conditions.
[0052] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
