DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] The following will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-4 The present application is further described in detail.
[0035] The present application discloses a cooling device for image sensor chip. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the cooling device for image sensor chip comprises a cylindrical mounting shell 1 with both ends closed, a sensor chip 2 is mounted in the mounting shell 1, a mounting plate 3 for fixing the sensor chip 2 is mounted in the mounting shell 1, and the sensor chip 2 is located at one end of the mounting plate 3. The mounting plate 3 can be a circuit board, and the sensor chip 2 is plugged into the circuit board. A semiconductor refrigeration device 4 for refrigerating the sensor chip 2 is mounted at the end of the sensor chip 2 away from the mounting plate 3.
[0036] Referring to Figure 2 , the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 comprises a plurality of semiconductor refrigeration sheets 41 connected in series. In this application, three semiconductor refrigeration sheets 41 are taken as an example to realize three-stage cooling. The semiconductor refrigeration sheets 41 can be selected from existing thermoelectric refrigerators on the market. Each semiconductor refrigeration sheet 41 has its heat absorption side facing the sensor chip 2 and its heat release side facing away from the sensor chip 2. The semiconductor refrigeration sheet 41 closest to the sensor chip 2 absorbs the heat generated by the sensor chip 2 during operation, and the absorbed heat is released from the side of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 41 away from the sensor chip 2. The heat released by the first semiconductor refrigeration sheet 41 is absorbed by the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 41 located in the middle, and the process is repeated in sequence until the heat is dissipated from the side of the third semiconductor refrigeration sheet 41 away from the sensor chip 2. Therefore, the refrigeration efficiency of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 depends on the heat dissipation speed of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 41 farthest from the sensor chip 2.
[0037] In order to improve the refrigeration efficiency of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 and meet the requirement of high imaging of the sensor chip 2 in a high temperature environment, a water cooling system 5 is further arranged at the end of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 away from the sensor chip 2. The water cooling system 5 can refrigerate one semiconductor refrigeration piece 41 away from the sensor chip 2, so as to quickly take away the heat emitted by the semiconductor refrigeration piece 41 and improve the refrigeration efficiency of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 on the sensor chip 2.
[0038] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the water cooling system 5 includes a plate-shaped heat exchange sheet 51 fixed at the end of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 away from the sensor chip 2, which can reduce the floor area and realize efficient heat exchange in a limited space. A heat transfer plate 55 is arranged between the heat exchange sheet 51 and the semiconductor refrigeration device 4, and the heat transfer plate 55 is fixed on the heat exchange sheet 51 to realize heat transfer. The heat exchange sheet 51 is fixed in the mounting shell 1, and a heat exchange channel 511 for liquid flow is arranged in the heat exchange sheet 51. An inlet pipe 52 and an outlet pipe 53 are further fixed on the heat exchange sheet 51 and communicate with the heat exchange channel 511. The inlet pipe 52 and the outlet pipe 53 are respectively connected to two ends of the heat exchange channel 511. In use, a water storage tank can be installed in the mounting shell 1, and the inlet pipe 52 and the outlet pipe 53 are respectively connected to the water storage tank. The liquid in the water storage tank is pumped into the heat exchange channel 511 through the water pump on the water storage tank. The liquid in the heat exchange channel 511 flows out of the outlet pipe 53 into the water storage tank, and the liquid flowing through the heat exchange channel 511 contacts the heat releasing side of the semiconductor refrigeration piece 41 away from the sensor chip 2 through the heat exchange sheet 51, so as to take away the heat emitted by the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 and improve the refrigeration efficiency of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 on the sensor chip 2.
[0039] Of course, the water storage tank can also be installed outside the mounting shell 1. At this time, two connecting pipes 54 for connecting with the external water storage tank are arranged on the mounting shell 1, and the two connecting pipes 54 are arranged to penetrate the mounting shell 1. In use, the ends of the two connecting pipes 54 located outside the mounting shell 1 are directly connected to the water storage tank, and the ends of the two connecting pipes 54 located inside the mounting shell 1 are respectively connected to the inlet pipe 52 and the outlet pipe 53.
[0040] With reference to Figure 4 , the heat exchange channel 511 can be in a continuous S shape to increase the flow area of the liquid and improve the heat exchange efficiency.
[0041] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3At the end of the water cooling system 5 away from the semiconductor refrigeration device 4, a wind cooling system 6 is also installed. The heat exchange fin 51 is made of metal material, which is convenient for heat conduction. When the user needs to use the wind cooling system 6 for cooling, the water cooling system 5 can be stopped, and the wind cooling system 6 is started. At this time, the heat on the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 is transmitted to the wind cooling system 6 through the heat exchange fin 51, so as to cool the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 through the wind cooling system 6. Of course, the user can also choose to use the water cooling system 5 and the wind cooling system 6 together to cool the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 according to the need, which is more flexible. At the same time, the cooling efficiency of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 on the sensor chip 2 is greatly improved.
[0042] The wind cooling system 6 includes a heat sink 61 located at the side of the water cooling system 5 away from the semiconductor refrigeration device 4, and a fan 62 installed at the side of the heat sink 61 away from the water cooling system 5.
[0043] The heat sink 61 includes a plurality of parallel fins 611 and a connecting plate 612 integrally connected to the ends of the plurality of fins 611 away from the fan 62. The fan 62 can be installed on the side of the fin 611 away from the connecting plate 612 by bolts or the like. The side of the connecting plate 612 away from the fin 611 can abut against the heat exchange fin 51 to take away the heat on the heat exchange fin 51. Adjacent two fins 611 form an air flow passage 613 for air flow. Meanwhile, heat dissipation holes 13 are provided on the opposite sides of the installation shell 1 for the fins 611 to pass through. The two ends of the air flow passage 613 are respectively communicated with the outside through the heat dissipation holes 13 on the two sides of the installation shell 1, so as to discharge heat to the outside.
[0044] Referring to Figure 2 In order to protect and seal the sensor chip 2, an isolation plate 12 is fixed to the inner wall of the installation shell 1. The isolation plate 12 can be sleeved on the water cooling system 5 and fixed to the water cooling system 5. The isolation plate 12 can also be sleeved on the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 and fixed to the semiconductor refrigeration device 4. The present application takes the isolation plate 12 sleeved on the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 and fixed to the side of the water cooling system 5 facing the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 as an example for description. The isolation plate 12 is arranged to form a sealed placement cavity for placing the sensor chip 2 between the isolation plate 12 and the end of the installation shell 1 close to the sensor chip 2.
[0045] The isolation plate 12 includes a first plate 121 fixed to the installation shell 1 and a second plate 122 fixed between the first plate 121 and the water cooling system 5. The side of the second plate 122 away from the first plate 121 is fixed to the heat exchange fin 51.
[0046] In the start of water cooling system 5, can choose to pass into the normal temperature liquid into the heat exchange channel 511 according to the need; of course, also can install the refrigerating machine between the fin 61 and the water storage tank for making the normal temperature liquid into the low temperature liquid, to pass into the low temperature liquid into the heat exchange channel 511 according to the need. Among them, the normal temperature liquid can be 10 degrees to 20 degrees between water, low temperature liquid can be negative 10 degrees to 10 degrees between the liquid, the liquid can be anti-freezing liquid also can be anti-freezing liquid + water mixture, anti-freezing liquid is the existing anti-freezing agent or gas liquid on the market, as long as it has the performance of not freezing below 0 degrees. When the outside air temperature is higher and the refrigeration efficiency is higher, the refrigerating machine and the water cooling system 5 can be started at the same time, at this time the liquid in the water storage tank will be driven by the water pump to pass through the refrigerating machine and reach the heat exchange channel 511, so as to cool the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 by low temperature liquid and improve the cooling efficiency.
[0047] In order to reduce the waste of energy caused by the cold air of water cooling system 5 spreading from the four sides of fin 61 to the outside, and also to reduce the cold air of water cooling system 5 spreading to the remaining parts of the camera, so that the remaining parts become cold, frost and water condensation phenomenon occurs when encountering high temperature gas outside, causing damage to the remaining parts, a isolation sleeve 7 is surrounded around the fin 61, the isolation sleeve 7 is sleeved on the fin 61, the inner wall of one end of the isolation sleeve 7 can be fixedly connected with the outer wall of the semiconductor refrigeration device 4, or can be fixedly connected with the isolation plate 12, and the application takes the isolation sleeve 7 and the second plate 122 as an example to illustrate, the other end of the isolation sleeve 7 forms a mounting cavity 71 for embedding the air cooling system 6, so that the water cooling system 5 is sleeved in the closed placement cavity formed by the isolation sleeve 7 and the mounting shell 1 close to the sensor chip 2, reducing the loss of cold air, also reducing the probability of damage to the remaining parts caused by the remaining parts being affected by cold gas and frost and water condensation when encountering high temperature gas outside. At the same time, the isolation sleeve 7 is provided with a avoiding hole (not shown in the figure) for the water inlet pipe 52 and the water outlet pipe 53.
[0048] When using, when the low temperature liquid is passed into the heat exchange channel 511, if the air cooling system 6 is started at this time, the air cooling system 6 will take away the cold air of water cooling system 5, reducing the refrigeration of semiconductor refrigeration device 4 by water cooling system 5, causing waste of energy. At the same time, if the air cooling system 6 and the water cooling system 5 are in contact, it will also lead to frost and water condensation phenomenon on the surface of air cooling system 6 when the air cooling system 6 contacts with high temperature gas, and the water droplets condensed on the surface of air cooling system 6 will fall into the inside of mounting shell 1 and damage the remaining parts in the camera. In order to reduce the probability of the above situation, the application is provided with air cooling system 6 slidingly installed in the mounting cavity 71, so that the air cooling system 6 and the water cooling system 5 are not in contact, reducing the probability of loss of cold air of water cooling system 5 from air cooling system 6, and also reducing the direct contact of cold air of water cooling system 5 with air cooling system 6.
[0049] Specifically, the connecting plate 612 comprises a fixed plate 6121 fixedly connected with the plurality of fins 611 and a sliding rod 6122 fixedly connected at a side of the fixed plate 6121 away from the fins 611, the sliding rod 6122 is slidingly connected in the mounting cavity 71, and the sliding assembly 8 for driving the air cooling system 6 to move in the mounting cavity 71 is arranged in the mounting shell 1, a side of the sliding assembly 8 away from the air cooling system 6 extends out of the mounting shell 1 through the heat dissipation hole 13 to facilitate the operation of people. When the normal-temperature liquid is introduced into the heat exchange channel 511, the staff can choose whether to start the air cooling system 6 according to the needs, at this time, a side of the sliding rod 6122 away from the fixed plate 6121 abuts against the side wall of the fin 61. When the low-temperature liquid is introduced into the heat exchange channel 511, the staff can operate the sliding assembly 8 to drive the water cooling system 5 to slide in the mounting cavity 71 from outside, so that the air cooling system 6 is separated from the water cooling system 5 to reduce the speed of the cold air in the water cooling system 5 being taken away by the sliding rod 6122 directly contacting the fin 61.
[0050] The isolation sleeve 7 can be made of plastic material, or other materials having heat insulation effect, as long as it can protect the water cooling system 5 and reduce the speed of the cold air in the water cooling system 5 being taken away to the outside.
[0051] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sliding assembly 8 comprises a driving plate 81 fixedly connected to the connecting plate 612, an end of the driving plate 81 away from the connecting plate 612 is slidingly connected in the heat dissipation hole 13, and the staff directly operates the driving plate 81 to slide in the heat dissipation hole 13 from outside, so as to drive the air cooling system 6 to slide. Meanwhile, a fixing member 82 for fixing the position of the driving plate 81 is arranged between the outer wall of the mounting shell 1 and the driving plate 81, so as to fix the driving plate 81 at a suitable position of the mounting shell 1.
[0052] Of course, in order to facilitate the driving plate 81 to drive the entire air cooling system 6 to slide, the driving plate 81 can be symmetrically provided with two, and the two driving plates 81 are respectively located at opposite sides of the air cooling system 6.
[0053] The fixing member 82 comprises a fixing ring 821 fixedly connected to the mounting shell 1 and a driving bolt 822 threadedly connected to the fixing ring 821, the driving bolt 822 is rotationally connected with the driving plate 81, and when the distance that the driving bolt 822 is screwed on the fixing ring 821 is operated, the distance between the driving plate 81 and the fixing ring 821 can be changed, so as to drive the water cooling system 5 to move.
[0054] Meanwhile, the fixed ring 821 is also fixedly connected with a guide rod 823 for guiding the moving direction of the driving plate 81, and the length direction of the guide rod 823 is consistent with the axis direction of the mounting shell 1. The guide rod 823 penetrates the driving plate 81 and is in sliding fit with the driving plate 81, and when the driving plate 81 is driven to move relative to the fixed ring 821 by rotating the driving bolt 822, the driving plate 81 also moves along the length direction of the guide rod 823 to drive the sliding rod 6122 to slide in the mounting cavity 71.
[0055] With reference to Figure 2 In order to avoid the gap between the water cooling system 5 and the heat dissipation hole 13 when the driving plate 81 drives the water cooling system 5 to slide relative to the mounting shell 1, so that the external dust reaches the mounting shell 1 and pollutes the parts in the mounting shell 1, a clamping groove 614 is arranged on the side of the heat dissipation fin 61 away from the connecting plate 612 for embedding the mounting shell 1, and the clamping groove 614 is arranged on the outer wall of the heat dissipation fin 61 close to the fan 62, and the abutting plate 83 is fixedly connected to the side of the driving plate 81 away from the heat dissipation fin 61, and the abutting plate 83 is in abutment with the inner wall of the mounting shell 1. When the driving plate 81 drives the water cooling system 5 to slide, the positions of the mounting shell 1 on both sides of the heat dissipation hole 13 are in abutment with and slide relative to the clamping groove 614 and the abutting plate 83, respectively.
[0056] With reference to Figure 2 In order to reduce the waste of energy caused by the cold air in the water cooling system 5 reaching the outside from between the inner wall of the mounting cavity 71 and the outer wall of the sliding rod 6122, and also to reduce the phenomenon that the part of the water cooling system 5 in the mounting cavity 71 is covered with frost and water due to the high-temperature gas from the outside reaching the mounting cavity 71, a sealing ring 6123 is arranged between the outer wall of the sliding rod 6122 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 71, and a mounting groove (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the outer wall of the sliding rod 6122 for embedding the sealing ring 6123, so as to realize the mounting and fixing of the sealing ring 6123.
[0057] It can be understood that in actual use, the water cooling system 5+semiconductor refrigeration device 4 can be selected to refrigerate, at this time the water cooling system 5 can pass in normal temperature liquid or low temperature liquid; or the semiconductor refrigeration device 4+air cooling system 6 can be selected to refrigerate, at this time the air cooling system 6 is in abutment with the water cooling system 5, the water cooling system 5 plays a role of heat conduction, and can transmit the heat on the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 to the air cooling system 6 to cool the semiconductor refrigeration device 4 through the air cooling system 6; of course, the water cooling system 5+semiconductor refrigeration device 4+air cooling system 6 can also be selected to refrigerate, at this time the water cooling system 5 passes in normal temperature liquid. There are many modes for people to choose, and the use range is wider.
[0058] The implementation principle of the cooling device of the image sensor chip embodiment of the present application is as follows: in use, the staff can select whether to cool the sensor chip 2 only by the semiconductor refrigeration device 4, or to select the semiconductor refrigeration device 4+water cooling system 5 and input normal temperature liquid cooling into the water cooling system 5, or to select the semiconductor refrigeration device 4+air cooling system 6 cooling, or to select the semiconductor refrigeration device 4+water cooling system 5 and input low temperature liquid cooling into the water cooling system 5 according to the external weather temperature and the needs. When the water cooling system 5 is input low temperature liquid, the staff can directly rotate the bolt 822 to drive the air cooling system 6 to move, so that the gap is left between the sliding rod 6122 and the cooling fin 61, and the energy waste caused by the cold air on the cooling fin 61 directly transferred to the sliding rod 6122 is reduced. The requirements of different imaging under various temperature conditions of people are met, and the use is more flexible.
[0059] The above are the preferred embodiments of the present application, and do not limit the protection scope of the present application, so: all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
