[0036] A partition 30 is fixedly provided in the height direction of the cooling chamber 100, and the partition 30 divides the cooling chamber 100 into an upper cooling chamber 101 and a lower cooling chamber 102. The upper cooling chamber 101 and the lower cooling chamber 102 are isolated from each other. In specific implementation, the partition 30 is a metal plate that is shaped like the cross-sectional shape of the cooling chamber 100, which has good thermal conductivity, and the preferred material is copper, aluminum and stainless steel.
[0037] A first fin 40 is provided in the upper cooling chamber 101, and a second fin 50 is provided in the lower cooling chamber 102; the first short water nozzle 80 and the second short water nozzle 90 are respectively connected to the first group of water inlet and outlet holes 12, and are combined with the upper cooling chamber 101 to form a complete passage; the partition 30 is provided with a third group of water inlet and outlet holes 31 at the position corresponding to the second group of water inlet and outlet holes 13, and the inner ends of the first long water nozzle 60 and the second long water nozzle 70 respectively pass through the corresponding holes of the second group of water inlet and outlet holes 13 and the third group of water inlet and outlet holes 31, and are combined with the lower cooling chamber 102 to form a complete passage.
[0038] During specific implementation, part of the lower surface of the second fin 50 is arranged close to the temperature equalizing plate 20, part of the upper surface of the second fin 50 is arranged close to the lower surface of the partition 30, part of the lower surface of the first fin 40 is arranged close to the upper surface of the partition 30, and part of the upper surface of the first fin 40 is arranged close to the lower surface of the upper end plate 11 of the shell cover 10, which ensures that part of the heat is taken away by the external cooling air to form auxiliary air cooling.
[0039] The first fin 40 and the second fin 50 are identical fins, and the partition 30 is fixed to the inner wall of the cooling cavity 100 at a corresponding position in the height direction by circumferential welding, ensuring the independent arrangement of the two cavities.
[0040] In the first preferred embodiment, the height occupied by the first fin 40 plus the second fin 50 is the total height of the cooling chamber 100 minus the thickness of the partition 30 , so that the partition 30 can complete the height positioning by pressing the second fin 50 when positioning in the height direction.
[0041] Preferred embodiment 2, see Figure 6: The inner wall of the outer circumference of the shell cover 10 is provided with a concave stop 14 for positioning the partition. The partition 30 is quickly positioned in the height direction through the concave stop 14 and then welded together.
[0042] The housing cover 10 is provided with a side convex stop edge 15 on its circumference facing the temperature homogenizing plate 20. The side convex stop edge 15 is fixedly connected to the corresponding position of the upper surface of the temperature homogenizing plate 20 by welding.
[0043] The outer peripheral portion of the temperature equalizing plate 20 corresponding to the shell cover 10 is provided with fixed connection holes, which are used to fix and install the entire liquid cooling plate. In specific implementation, the fixed connection holes include four surrounding connection holes 21 and side connection holes 22 in the length direction to ensure convenient and quick positioning.
[0044] In specific implementation, the two groups of water inlet and outlet holes correspond to the outer areas of the first fin 40 and the second fin 50 respectively; in a top-down state, the two groups of water inlet and outlet holes are arranged at the four vertex positions of a rectangle, the first group of water inlet holes are the two vertex positions of one group of diagonals, and the second group of water inlet and outlet holes are the two vertex positions of the other group of diagonals, which allows the coolant to fully contact the corresponding fins when flowing, ensures sufficient cooling, and improves cooling efficiency.
[0045] When the entire structure is arranged, the temperature equalizing plate 20 can be at the top or bottom, or at the left or right, and can be fixed and installed according to actual conditions. The drawings of the present invention are described as an example in which the temperature equalizing plate is at the bottom.
[0046] During specific implementation, the first fins 40 and the second fins 50 are connected to the temperature equalizing plate 20 , the partition plate 30 , and the housing cover 10 through thermal conductive adhesive to ensure convenient assembly.
[0047] Its working principle is as follows: the cooling chamber inside the shell cover is divided into an upper cooling chamber and a lower cooling chamber by a partition, and the two layers are respectively equipped with fins and flow channels; heat is transferred from the heat source to the temperature equilibrium plate, transferred to the partition through the second fin, and then transferred to the shell cover by the first fin; the coolant flows into the lower cooling chamber from the first long water nozzle, takes away the heat on the fin when flowing through the second fin, and then flows to the other side and flows out from the second long water nozzle; the coolant flows into the upper cooling chamber from the first short water nozzle, takes away the heat of the lower layer transferred from the partition when passing through the first fin, and then flows to the other side and flows out from the second short water nozzle. The entire structure dissipates heat through heat conduction of the fins and the flow of coolant; the use of a temperature equilibrium plate and liquid cooling structure can make the heat transfer of the heating element faster, and the coolant exchange more sufficient, and the heat transfer more uniform; compared with products with only a single flow channel, this product can dissipate the heat in the flow channel twice, which can have a better heat dissipation effect.
