Abstract

The application provides a high-efficiency heat-conducting copper pipe. After being heated, the cooling liquid is gasified, and the gasified cooling liquid enters the second heat-conducting pipe through each steam hole and rises to the top of the second heat-conducting pipe. At the top of the second heat-conducting pipe, the cooling liquid is liquefied into cooling liquid after meeting the cooling head. The liquefied cooling liquid flows into the second hollow heating seat along the second heat-conducting pipe and flows back into the first hollow heating seat through each backflow hole. On the one hand, the gasified cooling liquid rapidly transfers heat to the inner wall of the first heat-conducting pipe through the bent heat-conducting net cover and the metal sintered capillary heat-conducting layer, and the heat is transferred out through the first heat-conducting pipe. On the other hand, the first hollow heating seat directly transfers heat to the first heat-conducting pipe. Secondly, the second heat-conducting pipe is exposed to the first heat-conducting pipe at the end far from the second hollow heating seat, and can rapidly dissipate heat under the heat conduction of the two conical heat-dissipating cylinders. The high-efficiency heat-conducting copper pipe has simple and ingenious structure, strong heat-dissipating performance and wide application range.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hot melt machines, and in particular to high-efficiency thermally conductive copper tubes. Background Technology

[0002] Heat pipes are typically hollow cylindrical tubes. When a temperature difference occurs at both ends of the heat pipe, the liquid at the evaporation end rapidly vaporizes, carrying heat to the condensation end at an extremely fast rate. Heat pipes fully utilize the principles of heat conduction and the rapid heat transfer properties of refrigerants, quickly transferring heat from a heat-generating object to the outside of the heat source. Their thermal conductivity exceeds that of any known metal. Previously widely used in aerospace and military industries, heat pipe technology, since its introduction into the radiator manufacturing industry, has revolutionized traditional radiator design. It has moved beyond the single cooling mode that relies solely on high-airflow motors for better heat dissipation. Heat pipe technology allows radiators to achieve satisfactory results even with low-speed, low-airflow motors, effectively solving the noise problem that plagues air-cooled systems and opening up new possibilities in the heat dissipation industry.

[0003] However, traditional heat pipes, such as the one with patent number CN101726204B, have low heat conduction efficiency and cannot meet the current demand for high-efficiency heat conduction and heat dissipation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a high-efficiency thermally conductive copper pipe to address the technical problem that traditional heat pipes cannot meet the current high-efficiency heat conduction and heat dissipation requirements.

[0006] The outer tube mechanism includes a first hollow heating base, a first heat-conducting pipe, and a bent heat-conducting mesh sleeve; the first heat-conducting pipe is connected to the first hollow heating base and is disposed in the middle region of the first hollow heating base, and a metal sintered capillary heat-conducting layer is disposed on the inner side wall of the first heat-conducting pipe; the bent heat-conducting mesh sleeve is housed in the first heat-conducting pipe and is connected to the metal sintered capillary heat-conducting layer.

[0007] The inner tube mechanism includes a second hollow heating seat and a second heat-conducting pipe; the second hollow heating seat is housed within and connected to the first hollow heating seat; the second heat-conducting pipe communicates with the second hollow heating seat, and the first heat-conducting pipe is disposed in the middle region of the first hollow heating seat; the second heat-conducting pipe is partially housed within the first heat-conducting pipe, and several reflux holes are provided on both sides of the second hollow heating seat, through which the first hollow heating seat communicates with the second hollow heating seat; the portion of the second heat-conducting pipe near the top of the first heat-conducting pipe and housed within the first heat-conducting pipe is provided with several steam holes, through which the second heat-conducting pipe communicates with the first heat-conducting pipe;

[0008] The condensation mechanism includes a cooling head and two conical heat dissipation cylinders. The cooling head is connected to one end of the second heat pipe that is exposed outside the first heat pipe. The two conical heat dissipation cylinders are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the portion of the second heat pipe that is exposed outside the first heat pipe. Several heat dissipation holes are provided on the conical heat dissipation cylinders.

[0009] In one embodiment, the first heat pipe and the first hollow heating base are integrally formed.

[0017] In one embodiment, the bent heat-conducting mesh sleeve is made of aluminum.

[0018] During operation, the aforementioned high-efficiency thermally conductive copper tube connects to the product to be cooled. The first hollow heating base contains coolant, which vaporizes upon heating. The vaporized coolant enters the second heat-conducting tube through steam holes and rises to the top of the second heat-conducting tube. Upon encountering the cooling head at the top of the second heat-conducting tube, it liquefies into coolant. The liquefied coolant flows along the second heat-conducting tube into the second hollow heating base and then returns to the first hollow heating base through return holes. On one hand, the vaporized coolant rapidly transfers heat to the inner wall of the first heat-conducting tube through the bent heat-conducting mesh and the sintered metal capillary heat-conducting layer, and then dissipates the heat through the first heat-conducting tube. On the other hand, the first hollow heating base directly transfers heat to the first heat-conducting tube. Furthermore, the end of the second heat-conducting tube furthest from the second hollow heating base is exposed outside the first heat-conducting tube and can quickly dissipate heat through the heat conduction of the two conical heat dissipation cylinders. The aforementioned high-efficiency thermally conductive copper tube has a simple and ingenious structure, strong heat dissipation performance, and a wide range of applications.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 The present invention provides a high-efficiency thermally conductive copper tube 10, which includes an outer tube mechanism 100, an inner tube mechanism 200, and a condensation mechanism 300.

[0026] The outer tube mechanism 100 includes a first hollow heating base 110, a first heat-conducting pipe 120, and a bent heat-conducting mesh sleeve 130. The first heat-conducting pipe 120 communicates with the first hollow heating base 110 and is disposed in the middle region of the first hollow heating base 110. In one embodiment, the first heat-conducting pipe 120 and the first hollow heating base 110 are integrally formed. Further, the first heat-conducting pipe 120 and the first hollow heating base 110 are made of copper. A sintered metal capillary heat-conducting layer 121 is disposed on the inner wall of the first heat-conducting pipe 120. The sintered metal capillary heat-conducting layer 121 is formed by sintering copper powder and has a porosity of 60% to 70%. The bent heat-conducting mesh sleeve 130 is housed in the first heat-conducting pipe 120 and connected to the sintered metal capillary heat-conducting layer 121. In this embodiment, the bent heat-conducting mesh sleeve 130 is made of aluminum.

[0027] The inner tube mechanism 200 includes a second hollow heating base 210 and a second heat-conducting pipe 220. The second hollow heating base 210 is housed within and connected to a first hollow heating base 110. The second heat-conducting pipe 220 communicates with the second hollow heating base 210, and a first heat-conducting pipe 120 is disposed in the middle region of the first hollow heating base 110. In one embodiment, the second heat-conducting pipe 220 and the second hollow heating base 210 are integrally formed. Further, the second heat-conducting pipe 220 and the second hollow heating base 210 are made of aluminum. The second heat-conducting pipe 220 is partially housed within the first heat-conducting pipe 120. A plurality of return holes 201 are provided on both sides of the second hollow heating base 210, and the first hollow heating base 110 communicates with the second hollow heating base 210 through each of the return holes 201. The portion of the second heat pipe 220 near the top of the first heat pipe 120 and housed within the first heat pipe 120 has a plurality of steam holes 202, and the second heat pipe 220 is connected to the first heat pipe 120 through each steam hole 202.

[0028] The condensation mechanism 300 includes a cooling head 310 and two conical heat sinks 320. The cooling head 310 is connected to the end of the second heat pipe 220 exposed above the first heat pipe 120. In this embodiment, the cooling head 310 is made of ceramic. The two conical heat sinks 320 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the portion of the second heat pipe 220 exposed above the first heat pipe 120. A plurality of heat dissipation holes 301 are provided on the conical heat sinks 320. In this embodiment, the conical heat sinks 320 are made of copper.

[0029] To enhance the heat dissipation performance of the first heat pipe 120, in one embodiment, a plurality of heat sinks 122 are uniformly disposed on the sidewall of the first heat pipe 120. Furthermore, each heat sink 122 is integrally formed with the first heat pipe 120. Thus, each heat sink 122 increases the heat dissipation performance of the first heat pipe 120.

[0030] During operation, the aforementioned high-efficiency thermally conductive copper tube 10 connects the first hollow heating base 110 to the product to be cooled. The first hollow heating base 110 contains a coolant, specifically alcohol; in another embodiment, it is purified water. The coolant vaporizes upon heating and enters the second heat-conducting pipe 220 through the vapor holes 202, rising to the top of the second heat-conducting pipe 220. Upon encountering the cooling head 310 at the top of the second heat-conducting pipe 220, it liquefies. The liquefied coolant flows along the second heat-conducting pipe 220 into the second hollow heating base 210 and returns to the first hollow heating base 110 through the return holes 201. Simultaneously, the vaporized coolant rapidly transfers heat to the inner wall of the first heat-conducting pipe 120 through the bent thermally conductive mesh sleeve 130 and the sintered metal capillary thermally conductive layer 121, and then dissipates the heat through the first heat-conducting pipe 120. On the other hand, the first hollow heating base 110 directly transfers heat to the first heat-conducting pipe 120. Secondly, the end of the second heat-conducting pipe 220 furthest from the second hollow heating base 210 is exposed outside the first heat-conducting pipe 120, and can quickly dissipate heat through the conduction of the two conical heat dissipation cylinders 320. The aforementioned high-efficiency heat-conducting copper pipe 10 has a simple and ingenious structure, strong heat dissipation performance, and a wide range of applications.

For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0032] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of this invention patent should be determined by the appended claims.
