TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile accessories, and in particular to an integrated water tank oil cooling condenser. BACKGROUND
[0002] The front end of an automobile is generally provided with a condenser and a water tank. The condenser is used for heat dissipation of an air conditioner, and the water tank is used for cooling an engine through circulating coolant. However, the engine is internally provided with lubricating oil to ensure normal operation of various components. The normal operating temperature of the lubricating oil is 70-100 degrees, and the optimal operating temperature of different vehicle models is also different. With long-time or high-speed driving, the temperature of the lubricating oil gradually increases. Therefore, an oil cooler is also needed in the automobile to cool the lubricating oil. The three structures are similar, and all adopt the principle of a radiator. In the traditional technology, the three are installed in the automobile as three independent parts.
[0003] With the development of automobile integration, there is a device that integrates the water tank and the condenser. However, the improvement of the oil cooler is only to simply stack the oil cooler on the water tank, and there is no device that integrates the three. Moreover, the heat dissipation area of the integrated oil cooler is fixed, and the cooling temperature of the lubricating oil cannot be adjusted according to different working conditions. If the oil temperature just exceeds the temperature that needs to be cooled, the temperature of the lubricating oil cooled by the oil cooler is relatively low, which causes the lubricating oil to have too much viscosity, increases the movement resistance of the machine parts, and is easy to damage the engine. If the heat dissipation area of the oil cooler is small, when the oil temperature is too high, the viscosity of the lubricating oil is too low, and dry friction occurs, which also easily damages the engine. SUMMARY
[0004] In order to improve the defect that the cooling oil temperature of the integrated oil cooler cannot be adjusted, the present application provides an integrated water tank oil cooling condenser.
[0005] The present application provides an integrated water tank oil cooling condenser, which adopts the following technical scheme:
[0006] An integrated water tank oil cooling condenser, comprising a water cooling unit, an oil cooling unit and a condensing unit; the water cooling unit comprises a water inlet chamber and a water outlet chamber arranged in parallel, the oil cooling unit comprises an oil inlet chamber and an oil outlet chamber arranged in parallel, and the condensing unit comprises a first collecting pipe and a second collecting pipe arranged in parallel; the water inlet chamber and the oil inlet chamber are integrally formed into a third collecting pipe, and the water outlet chamber and the oil outlet chamber are integrally formed into a fourth collecting pipe; the first collecting pipe and the third collecting pipe are correspondingly stacked, the second collecting pipe and the fourth collecting pipe are correspondingly stacked, and a plurality of communicating heat dissipation pipes are arranged between the first collecting pipe and the third collecting pipe and between the second collecting pipe and the fourth collecting pipe; and a heat dissipation piece is connected between adjacent two heat dissipation pipes.
[0007] The adjusting mechanism is connected with the oil inlet chamber, and comprises an adjusting part for blocking the passage of the heat dissipation pipe and a temperature control part for driving the adjusting part to move.

The third collecting pipe can be provided with a partition plate for blocking the water flow to form the water inlet chamber and the oil inlet chamber, the fourth collecting pipe also forms the water outlet chamber and the oil outlet chamber through the partition plate, the first collecting pipe and the third collecting pipe are connected, the second collecting pipe and the fourth collecting pipe are connected, and the heat dissipation pipe and the heat dissipation part are installed, so that the water cooling unit, the oil cooling unit and the condensing unit are highly integrated, the structure is simple, the volume is reduced, the cost is reduced, and the installation is convenient and fast, and the production and processing efficiency is improved.
[0009] The adjusting mechanism is arranged in the oil cooling unit, and the temperature control part in the adjusting mechanism can drive the adjusting part to open or close the passage of the heat dissipation pipe according to the temperature. When the oil temperature to be cooled is only slightly higher than the normal oil temperature, the adjusting part is in a state of blocking one or more passages of the heat dissipation pipe, and the lubricating oil in the oil inlet chamber flows into the remaining passages of the heat dissipation pipe, and then flows out after heat transfer and heat absorption of the heat dissipation part, so that the oil temperature is not cooled too fast. When the oil temperature is too high, the temperature control part drives the adjusting part to open the passage of the heat dissipation pipe, and the lubricating oil in the oil inlet chamber can pass through more heat dissipation pipes for heat dissipation, so that the heat dissipation is faster. The outlet oil temperature of the lubricating oil after heat dissipation by the oil cooling unit is maintained within a suitable range for the engine, so that the working efficiency of the engine is improved, and the service life of the engine is prolonged.
[0010] Optionally, the adjusting part is arranged corresponding to the position of the heat dissipation pipe, the temperature control part drives the adjusting part to move towards or away from the heat dissipation pipe, and the adjusting part can move towards the heat dissipation pipe to block the pipe opening of the heat dissipation pipe.
[0011] By adopting the above technical scheme, the adjusting mechanism adopts the temperature control part to push the adjusting part to move linearly to approach or separate from the pipe opening of the heat dissipation pipe, so as to block or open the passage of the heat dissipation pipe, and the adjusting mode is simpler and faster, and the sealing effect of directly blocking the pipe opening is better.
[0012] Optionally, the oil inlet chamber is connected with an oil inlet joint, a first movable groove is formed in a side of the oil inlet joint connected with the oil inlet chamber, the adjusting member is arranged in the first movable groove, and a gap groove for the adjusting member is formed in the oil inlet chamber corresponding to the position of the first movable groove; a deforming member with elasticity is connected to the groove wall of the first movable groove close to the heat dissipation pipe, and the end of the deforming member away from the groove wall of the first movable groove is connected to the adjusting member; a cavity for accommodating the temperature control member is formed in the deforming member, and the temperature control member is made of wax.
[0013] By adopting the above technical scheme, the adjusting mechanism is arranged in the oil inlet joint, and when the oil inlet joint is installed on the oil inlet chamber, the adjusting member can be positioned and installed by being correspondingly inserted into the gap groove, so that the installation efficiency is improved. In the initial state, the adjusting member is in a state of blocking the heat dissipation pipe, the deforming member abuts between the groove wall of the first movable groove and the adjusting member, the temperature control member is made of wax, and the wax is placed in the deforming member; when the oil temperature is lower than the melting point of the wax, the wax solidifies into a solid with a small volume, so that the deforming member is not deformed, and the deforming member does not push the adjusting member, so that the adjusting member closes the passage of the heat dissipation pipe; when the oil temperature is higher than the melting point of the wax, the wax gradually melts and has a larger and larger volume, so that the deforming member is deformed and expanded, and an acting force is generated on the adjusting member, the adjusting member moves under the action of the force, and gradually separates from the heat dissipation pipe, so as to open the passage of the heat dissipation pipe. Compared with mechanical parts, the wax can be deformed more times, has a long service life, and has a small possibility of damage.
[0014] Optionally, the adjusting member is further connected with a reset member with elasticity for driving the adjusting member to move towards the heat dissipation pipe.
[0015] By adopting the above technical scheme, the cooperation of the temperature control member and the deforming member enables the adjusting member originally blocking the passage of the heat dissipation pipe to separate from the heat dissipation pipe, so as to open the passage. When the oil temperature is lower than the melting point of the temperature control member, the temperature control member solidifies and becomes small, and the deforming member also returns to the original state, so that the adjusting member can be pushed to move to block the heat dissipation pipe by the reset member, so as to reduce the heat dissipation area of the lubricating oil. The cooperation of the temperature control member and the reset member can realize the bidirectional movement of the adjusting member, so as to control the opening and closing of the passage of the heat dissipation pipe.

When the oil temperature is low, the wax with a low melting point is first melted, the corresponding deformation member is deformed and expanded to a specified volume, thereby pushing the adjusting mechanism to separate from the heat dissipation pipe; when the oil temperature is high, the wax with a high melting point is also melted, and the deformation member is also expanded to a specified volume, thereby pushing the corresponding adjusting mechanism to separate from the heat dissipation pipe. The lubricating oil with different temperatures in the oil inlet chamber can open different numbers of heat dissipation pipes, and finally the temperature of the lubricating oil after heat dissipation is kept within a proper range.
[0018] Optionally, the adjusting mechanism further comprises a plurality of linkage assemblies, the oil inlet joint is arranged with a plurality of second movable grooves corresponding to the positions of the heat dissipation pipes along the axial direction of the oil inlet chamber, and the linkage assemblies are arranged in the second movable grooves; the linkage assembly also comprises an adjusting member and a reset member for driving the adjusting member to move towards the heat dissipation pipe; the adjusting member is provided with a linkage part, and when the adjusting member in the first movable groove moves away from the heat dissipation pipe, the linkage part can drive the adjusting member in the second movable groove to sequentially and separately separate from the heat dissipation pipe.
[0019] By adopting the technical scheme, the adjusting mechanism can also control the opening and closing of the passages of a plurality of heat dissipation pipes through the linkage assemblies; the wax starts to melt when the temperature exceeds the melting point, and the volume gradually increases. When the temperature of the lubricating oil is too high, the wax will gradually melt and the volume will gradually increase, thereby causing the deformation member to gradually expand, the adjusting member in the first movable groove is pushed away from the heat dissipation pipe, the linkage part on the adjusting member gradually drives the adjusting member in the adjacent second movable groove to move, and the adjusting member in the second movable member sequentially drives the adjacent adjusting member to move, thereby gradually opening a plurality of heat dissipation pipes and improving the heat dissipation of the lubricating oil with a temperature that is too high.
[0020] Optionally, the linkage part is arranged on the opposite two side walls of the adjusting member, the oil inlet joint is also arranged with a plurality of linkage grooves which are communicated with the first movable grooves and the second movable grooves and are communicated with adjacent two second movable grooves, and the linkage grooves are used for the movement of the linkage part; the distance between the linkage part of the plurality of adjusting members arranged in an array and the end face of the adjusting member close to the direction of the heat dissipation pipe is arranged to gradually increase, and when the adjusting member moves away from the heat dissipation pipe, the adjusting member can gradually approach to abut against the linkage part of the adjacent adjusting member and drive the adjacent adjusting member to move.
[0021] By adopting the technical scheme, the linkage parts are arranged on both sides of the adjusting pieces, the distance between the linkage part and the end face of the adjusting piece arranged in sequence increases, when the volume of the melted wax increases with the temperature, the deformed piece can push the adjusting pieces to gradually move away from the heat dissipation pipes, the adjusting pieces arranged in sequence start to move away from the heat dissipation pipes through the linkage parts, and different numbers of heat dissipation pipes can be opened according to different oil temperatures.
[0022] Optionally, the oil outlet chamber is also connected with the adjusting mechanism, and the position of the adjusting mechanism in the oil outlet chamber is arranged in correspondence with the position of the adjusting mechanism in the oil inlet chamber.
[0023] By adopting the technical scheme, the pipe opening of the heat dissipation pipe close to the oil inlet chamber is closed, and the lubricating oil can still enter the heat dissipation pipe through the other end, but the circulation of the lubricating oil in the heat dissipation pipe can be limited by closing the pipe opening at one end. The adjusting mechanism is arranged in the oil outlet chamber, and the adjusting piece in the oil outlet chamber is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the adjusting piece in the oil inlet chamber, so that the pipe openings at both ends of the same heat dissipation pipe can be opened or closed at the same time, thereby limiting the lubricating oil from entering the closed heat dissipation pipe, improving the flow rate of the lubricating oil in the oil cooling unit, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0024] Optionally, the third collecting pipe and the fourth collecting pipe are both correspondingly provided with a baffle for blocking the flow of liquid, the number of baffles is two, and at least one heat dissipation pipe is arranged between the two baffles; the two baffles in the third collecting pipe are arranged on the opposite sides of the water inlet chamber and the oil inlet chamber, and the two baffles in the fourth collecting pipe are arranged on the opposite sides of the water outlet chamber and the oil outlet chamber.

[0055] In the initial state, the adjusting member 81 is in a state of blocking the heat dissipation pipe 6. When the oil temperature is lower than the melting point of the wax, the wax solidifies into a solid with a small volume, which does not deform the deforming member 83, and thus the deforming member 83 does not push the adjusting member 81, and the adjusting member 81 closes the passage of the heat dissipation pipe 6. When the oil temperature is higher than the melting point of the wax, the wax gradually melts and the volume becomes larger and larger, the deforming member 83 expands and deforms, and an acting force is generated on the adjusting member 81. The adjusting member 81 moves under the action of the force, thereby gradually separating from the heat dissipation pipe 6 and opening the passage of the heat dissipation pipe 6. When the adjusting member 81 is pushed to the limit position away from the heat dissipation pipe 6, the end of the adjusting member 81 can still be in the oil inlet pipe, so as to transmit heat to the temperature control member 82.
[0056] Reference Figure 3In order to reset the adjusting member 81 driven by the temperature control member 82, the adjusting member 81 is further connected with a reset member 84 with elasticity which drives the adjusting member 81 to move towards the heat dissipation pipe 6, and the reset member 84 can be a spring, one end of which is connected to the groove wall of the first movable groove 231 away from the heat dissipation pipe 6, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the adjusting member 81 away from the heat dissipation pipe 6. When the oil temperature is lower than the melting point of the temperature control member 82, the temperature control member 82 solidifies and becomes smaller, and the deforming member 83 also returns to the original state, at this time, the adjusting member 81 can be pushed again to move to block the heat dissipation pipe 6 by the reset member 84, thereby reducing the heat dissipation area of the lubricating oil.
[0057] The implementation principle of the embodiment 1 of the present application is as follows:
[0058] The lubricating oil with high temperature enters the water inlet chamber 11 from the oil inlet joint 23, and then flows into the heat dissipation pipe 6, is cooled by the heat dissipation member 7, and then flows out through the oil outlet joint 24. The temperature control member 82 in the adjusting mechanism 8 can drive the adjusting member 81 to open or close the passage of the heat dissipation pipe 6 according to the temperature. Initially, the passage of part of the heat dissipation pipe 6 is closed by the adjusting member 81, when the oil temperature to be cooled has not reached the melting point of the wax, the wax will not melt, and thus the deforming member 83 will not deform, the adjusting member 81 does not open the heat dissipation pipe 6, at this time, the oil temperature will not be cooled too fast; when the oil temperature is too high, the wax gradually melts, and the volume becomes larger and larger, the deforming member 83 expands and deforms, and generates a force on the adjusting member 81, the adjusting member 81 moves under the force, and thus gradually separates from the heat dissipation pipe 6, and opens the passage of the heat dissipation pipe 6. Therefore, the temperature of the lubricating oil with different temperatures can be reduced to a suitable range after being cooled by the oil cooling unit 2.

[0061] The melting points of the waxes in each adjusting member 81 are different, and the temperatures required for the waxes with different melting points to dissolve to the same volume are different. When the oil temperature is low, the wax with a low melting point is first melted, and the corresponding deformation member 83 is deformed and expanded to reach the specified volume, thereby pushing the adjusting member 81 away from the heat dissipation pipe 6; when the oil temperature is high, the wax with a high melting point is also melted, and the deformation member 83 is also expanded to reach the specified volume, thereby pushing the corresponding adjusting member 81 away from the heat dissipation pipe 6.
