Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of instrument heat dissipation, and more specifically, to a honeycomb panel mounting device and process. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, honeycomb panels are installed and fixed using traditional assembly processes, such as using aluminum or stainless steel honeycomb panels with adhesive or FOF for fixation. After installation and fixing the honeycomb panels using traditional assembly processes, the installation of the honeycomb panels is unstable and they are easy to fall off the installation device, so they cannot pass the vibration test. For example, if the method of fixing with spring clips and aluminum honeycomb panels is used, the aluminum honeycomb panels have large tolerance requirements and sharp edges after the holes of the aluminum honeycomb panels are cut. As a result, the honeycomb holes will be damaged and twisted during the subsequent use of the honeycomb panels, which will ultimately affect the operation of the devices related to the honeycomb panels.

[0033] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of the present invention, specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] Figures 1 to 7This invention illustrates a honeycomb panel mounting device according to some embodiments. This device can be used to install and fix a honeycomb panel 5, preventing the honeycomb panel 5 from being deformed and damaged during installation, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation efficiency of the honeycomb panel 5. The device includes a first mounting member 1, a second mounting member 2, an elastic member 3, a connecting member 4, and a honeycomb panel 5. The elastic member 3 is mounted on the first mounting member 1 and provides support for the honeycomb panel 5. The first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2 are connected and fixed by the connecting member 4. At this time, a gap of a certain width is formed between the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2, just wide enough for the honeycomb panel 5 to be inserted. Therefore, the width of the gap between the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2 can be adjusted by changing the design of the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2. Thus, this device is adaptable to honeycomb panels 5 of different sizes for installation. After the honeycomb panel 5 is inserted into the gap, it is mounted on the elastic member 3. At this time, one side of the honeycomb panel 5 is mounted on the elastic member 3, and the other side abuts against the second mounting member 2. The second mounting member 2 provides support for the honeycomb panel 5. Understandably, the elastic force of the elastic member 3 presses the honeycomb panel 5 onto the second mounting member 2, so that the second mounting member 2 cannot easily come out of the gap between the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2, thereby fixing the honeycomb panel 5 and completing the installation of the honeycomb panel 5.

[0035] Therefore, this invention uses elastic elements to fix and support the honeycomb panel, making the honeycomb panel stable and not easy to fall off. As a result, this device can also pass the vibration test. At the same time, there is no need to cut the honeycomb panel when using this device to install it, thus ensuring that there will be no damage to the honeycomb holes or twisting and deformation of the honeycomb panel during and after installation. This protects the honeycomb panel from damage and meets the heat dissipation technology requirements for using honeycomb panels.

[0036] In some embodiments, the first mounting component 1 includes a base plate 11 and a first support plate 12. The first support plate 12 is fixed to the base plate 11 as a whole. In this embodiment, the first support plate 12 is perpendicular to the base plate 11. At the same time, a part of the second mounting component 2 is mounted on the first support plate 12, which provides support for the second mounting component 2. Then, the other part of the second mounting component 2 is anchored to the base plate 11 through a connector 4, thereby fixing the first mounting component 1 and the second mounting component 2. Meanwhile, a gap is formed between the first mounting component 1 and the second mounting component 2 for the honeycomb panel 5 to be inserted. Before the second mounting component 2 is mounted on the first support plate 12, the elastic element 3 is first mounted on the base plate 11. Specifically, the elastic element 3 is mounted on the side of the base plate 11 facing the second mounting component 2. Thus, when the first mounting component 1 and the second mounting component 2 are fixed, the elastic element 3 is in the gap formed between the first mounting component 1 and the second mounting component 2, so that the honeycomb panel 5 can be inserted into this gap along the elastic element 3 and mounted on the elastic element 3.

[0037] In some embodiments, the base plate 11 has one or more first mounting holes 111 for anchoring the second mounting member 2. Specifically, a portion of the second mounting member 2 is installed behind the first support plate 12, and the other portion of the second mounting member 2 is aligned with the first mounting hole 111 of the base plate 11. Then, the connector 4 passes through the second mounting member 2 and the first mounting hole 111 in sequence and locks them in place, thereby anchoring the second mounting member 2 and the base plate 11 and preventing the shaking of the second mounting member 2 from affecting the installation of the honeycomb panel 5. In this embodiment, there are two first mounting holes 111, located at the bottom of the base plate 11 near the two sides. In this way, after the connector 4 locks the second mounting member 2 and the base plate 11, the second mounting member 2 will no longer rotate but will be fixed in one position.

[0038] In some embodiments, the base plate 11 also includes a limiting block 112, which is installed below the elastic member 3 to limit the honeycomb panel 5 and restrict its movement. Specifically, after the honeycomb panel 5 is installed, its left and right movement is restricted under the action of the elastic member 3 and the second mounting member 2. However, under the action of gravity or when the whole device vibrates, the honeycomb panel 5 may tend to move downward. If there is no structure below the honeycomb panel 5 to prevent its movement, the honeycomb panel 5 may move downward under the action of gravity or external vibration and fall out of the device, thereby damaging the honeycomb panel 5 and affecting the equipment using the honeycomb panel 5. Therefore, it is necessary to install a limiting block 112 below the honeycomb panel 5 to prevent its movement.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first support plate 12 also includes a first weight-reducing hole 121, such as Figure 1 As shown, in order to reduce the weight of the first support plate 12 and save materials for manufacturing the device, six square first weight-reducing holes 121 are provided on the first support plate 12 in this embodiment. The first weight-reducing holes 121 are arranged along the long side of the first support plate 12 and are located at the bottom of the first support plate 12, away from the position where the second mounting member 2 is installed on the first support plate 12, so as to reduce the weight of the first support plate 12 as much as possible without affecting the use of the first support plate 12.

[0040] In some embodiments, the second mounting component 2 includes a second support plate 21 and a vertical plate 22. The second support plate 21 and the vertical plate 22 are fixed as a whole. In this embodiment, the second support plate 21 and the vertical plate 22 are perpendicular to each other. At this time, the second support plate 21 is mounted on the first support plate 12. The second support plate 21 and the first support plate 12 are perpendicular to each other. The first support plate 12 provides support for the second support plate 21. The second support plate 21 abuts against the honeycomb panel 5 to support the honeycomb panel 5 and prevent the honeycomb panel 5 from falling out of the device. At the same time, the connecting member 4 passes through the first mounting hole 111 on the vertical plate 22 and the bottom plate 11 and is locked, so that the vertical plate 22 and the bottom plate 11 are anchored and connected, so that the second mounting component 2 is fixed on the first mounting component 1.

[0041] Furthermore, to prevent the honeycomb panel 5 from detaching from the device due to vibration, the second support plate 21 is equipped with a limiting post 211 in some embodiments. Specifically, the limiting post 211 is installed above the honeycomb panel 5 and abuts against the honeycomb panel 5. In this way, the honeycomb panel 5 has a limiting structure in all four directions (up, down, left, and right) to restrict its movement. When the position of the device changes under external action or the device vibrates, the honeycomb panel 5 is restricted from moving by the elastic element 3, the upright plate 22, the limiting block 112, and the limiting post 211, thereby ensuring that the honeycomb panel 5 will not detach from the device.

[0042] Furthermore, to reduce the overall weight of the device, the second support plate 21 is also provided with a second weight-reducing hole 212 in some embodiments, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the second weight-reducing holes 212 are arranged at the bottom of the second support plate 21. While ensuring the strength of the second support plate 21, they can also reduce the weight of the second support plate 21, thereby reducing the weight of the overall device.

[0043] In some embodiments, the upright plate 22 has one or more second mounting holes 221 for the connector 4 to pass through and lock the upright plate 22 and the base plate 11. In this embodiment, the number of second mounting holes 221 is the same as the number of first mounting holes 111, that is, there are two second mounting holes 221, and each second mounting hole 221 corresponds to a first mounting hole 111. When the second support plate 21 is installed on the first support plate 12, the upright plate 22 and the base plate 11 are aligned at the same time, so that the first mounting holes 111 and the second mounting holes 221 correspond one-to-one, which facilitates the connector 4 to pass through. Then the connector 4 passes through the first mounting holes 111 and the second mounting holes 221 and locks them to fix the upright plate 22 and the base plate 11, and finally completes the installation and fixing of the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2.

[0044] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the elastic element 3 is a snap-fit ​​spring piece 31, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, one end of the spring piece 31 is fixed to the substrate, and the other end springs up away from the substrate. When the honeycomb plate 5 is inserted into the gap between the base plate 11 and the second support member along the spring piece 31, the honeycomb plate 5 moves along one end of the spring piece 31 towards the other end of the spring piece 31. During this process, the other end of the spring piece 31 presses the other end of the spring piece 31 against the substrate. At this time, in order to return to its original position, the other end of the spring piece 31 will apply a force to the honeycomb plate 5 that is pressing against it, thereby squeezing the honeycomb plate 5 towards the second support member, thus fixing the honeycomb plate 5 in the gap between the base plate 11 and the second support plate 21.

[0045] In order to better fix the upright plate 22 and the base plate 11, the connector 4 is a rivet 41 in some embodiments. The rivet 41 passes through the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 221 and is then riveted to fix the base plate 11 and the upright plate 22 by riveting, further fixing the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2, and preventing the honeycomb plate 5 from coming out of the gap between the base plate 11 and the second support plate 21.

[0046] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, the area of ​​the honeycomb panel 5 is calculated according to actual needs, but there are still certain requirements for the minimum side length of the honeycomb panel. For example, the side length of the honeycomb panel installed on the spring 31 is 15mm. At this time, there are two clips on the spring 31 to ensure the heat dissipation effect of the honeycomb panel 5. In addition, when the side length of the spring 31 is increased in order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the honeycomb panel 5, the length of the spring 31 also increases, and there are more clips. Furthermore, the overall honeycomb panel installation device can only be installed after the area of ​​the honeycomb panel 5 has been determined. This is because the honeycomb panel 5 needs to be installed in the gap between the second support plate 21 and the base plate 11. Therefore, during the installation of this device, the position of the second support plate 21 on the first support plate 12 needs to be adjusted according to the different honeycomb panels 5. This will determine the gap between the second support plate 21 and the base plate 11, ensuring that the honeycomb panel 5 can fit perfectly into this gap without falling off. If the gap is too large, the second support plate 21 and the spring piece 31 will not be able to support the honeycomb panel, and the honeycomb panel 5 will fall off. If the gap is too small, the honeycomb panel 5 cannot be installed, or if the honeycomb panel 5 is forcibly squeezed into a gap that is too small, the side of the honeycomb panel 5 will break, resulting in damage to the honeycomb panel 5 and affecting its use. Alternatively, the honeycomb panel 5 may not be damaged when it is installed, but other structures of this device may excessively compress the honeycomb panel 5 during use, causing the honeycomb panel 5 to be damaged.

[0047] This application also provides a honeycomb panel 5 installation process, including the following steps:

[0048] S1. Fix the spring piece 31 onto the base plate 11;

[0049] S2. Install the second support plate 21 on the first support plate 12, align the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 221, pass the rivet 41 through the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 221 and lock it, thereby riveting the upright plate 22 and the bottom plate 11, and fixing the first mounting part 1 and the second mounting part 2.

[0050] S3. Insert the honeycomb plate 5 along the spring piece 31 into the gap formed by the base plate 11 and the second support plate 21, and then fix the honeycomb plate 5 on the spring piece 31. The second support plate 21 supports the honeycomb plate 5.

[0051] Specifically, firstly, the spring clip 31 is installed on the base plate 11. Because after the first mounting component 1 and the second mounting component 2 are installed, the gap between the base plate 11 and the second support component is only wide enough for the honeycomb panel 5 to be inserted, making the space narrow and unfavorable for the installation of the spring clip 31. Therefore, the spring clip 31 needs to be installed first. Then, the second support plate 21 is installed on the first support plate 12, with the two perpendicular to each other. Simultaneously, the positions of the base plate 11 and the upright plate 22 are adjusted so that each first mounting hole 111 aligns with a second mounting hole 221, facilitating the insertion and fastening of the rivet 41. After aligning the first mounting holes 111 and the second mounting holes 221, the rivet 41 is inserted into the first mounting holes 111 and the second mounting holes 221. At this point, the rivet 41... 1. Rivet and fix the base plate 11 and the upright plate 22, and then the first mounting part 1 and the second mounting part 2 are fixedly installed. Finally, insert the honeycomb plate 5 into the gap formed by the spring piece 31 and the second support plate 21, and then fix the honeycomb plate 5 on the spring piece 31. After the honeycomb plate 5 is installed, the force of the spring piece 31 presses the honeycomb plate 5 against the second support plate 21. After being pressed, the second support plate 21 will also apply a force to the honeycomb plate 5 in the opposite direction to the force of the spring piece 31. In this way, the honeycomb plate 5 is restricted in both the left and right directions, thereby fixing the honeycomb plate 5 in the gap between the second support plate 21 and the upright plate 22. The second support plate 21 and the spring piece 31 support the honeycomb plate 5 at the same time.

[0052] Furthermore, in order to restrict the vertical movement of the honeycomb panel 5 and ensure that the honeycomb panel 5 is completely fixed in the gap between the second support plate 21 and the bottom plate 11, in some embodiments, the bottom plate 11 further includes a limiting block 112 for limiting the honeycomb panel 5, and the second support plate 21 further includes a limiting post 211 for limiting the honeycomb panel 5. The limiting block 112 is installed under the spring piece 31 and abuts against the honeycomb panel 5 to restrict the downward movement of the honeycomb panel 5. The limiting post 211 is installed on the second support plate 21 and abuts against the honeycomb panel 5 to restrict the upward movement of the honeycomb panel 5, thereby restricting the vertical movement of the honeycomb panel 5.

[0053] Understandably, the above-mentioned technical features can be used in any combination without restriction.

[0054] The above are merely embodiments of the present invention and do not limit the scope of the patent. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of the present invention, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
