The present invention can provide heat dissipation and cooling effects in summer by providing two fan blades, thereby removing sweat stains from the hands. However, the cooling effect provided by this method is not obvious. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the existing handlebars have poor cooling effect. An intelligent handlebar temperature control device is proposed, which can effectively cool the handlebars in hot environments.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: an intelligent handlebar temperature control device, comprising a grip and a temperature control air chamber, the grip is connected to the temperature control air chamber, a plurality of heat conducting plates are provided in the grip, the heat conducting plates are provided with fixing holes, the heat conducting plates are connected to the heat pipes through the fixing holes, the heat pipes are fixedly connected to one end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate through a buckle, the other end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate is connected to the radiator, the radiator is connected to the temperature control air chamber, a control circuit is provided in the temperature control air chamber, and the control circuit is connected to the semiconductor refrigeration plate.

[0006] An intelligent vehicle handlebar temperature control device mainly includes a grip portion and a temperature-controlled air chamber portion. The grip portion is provided with a heat conducting plate and a heat pipe. Each heat conducting plate has two fixing holes. Both ends of the heat pipe pass through the two fixing holes of the heat conducting plate. The heat of the heat pipe is transferred to the entire grip through the heat conducting plate, or the heat of the grip is transferred to the heat pipe through the heat conducting plate, thereby achieving heating and cooling effects. The end of the heat pipe close to the temperature-controlled air chamber is fixed to the semiconductor refrigeration plate by a buckle. The semiconductor refrigeration plate is connected to a control circuit. The control circuit realizes the functions of absorbing and releasing heat by controlling the two ends of the semiconductor refrigeration plate. The semiconductor refrigeration plate is connected to a radiator. The radiator is located in the temperature-controlled air chamber to ensure that the hot surface of the semiconductor refrigeration plate will not burn during cooling.

[0007] Preferably, the control circuit is connected to a temperature sensor, which is inserted into the handle. A thermocouple temperature sensor is provided in the handle, which fits snugly against the inside of the handle and can perfectly sense the temperature of the handle. The temperature sensor is connected to the control circuit and can transmit the sensed temperature to the control circuit, which then automatically adjusts the cooling or heating mode based on a set threshold. The user can also manually adjust the cooling or heating power.

[0008] Preferably, the temperature-controlled air chamber is provided with a first air inlet at one end, a second air inlet and an air outlet at the other end, the first air inlet is connected to the air outlet to form a first air duct, the second air inlet is connected to the air outlet to form a second air duct, the first air duct is connected to the second air duct, and the radiator is located in the second air duct. The front end of the temperature-controlled air chamber, i.e., the end away from the user, is provided with a first air inlet, and the other end of the temperature-controlled air chamber, i.e., the end close to the user, is provided with a second air inlet and an air outlet, the second air inlet is located above the air outlet, and the two are separated. The first air inlet is connected to the air outlet to form a first air duct, the second air inlet is connected to the air outlet to form a second air duct, the first air duct is connected to the second air duct, and the radiator is located in the second air duct. The two air ducts converge below the radiator. When the car is moving, the airflow formed will enter from the first air inlet and the second air inlet, and then flow out from the air outlet, thereby taking away the heat from the radiator and achieving cooling of the semiconductor refrigeration plate.

[0009] Preferably, the first air inlet is provided with a dustproof plate, the second air inlet is provided with a dustproof plate, the first air inlet is larger than the second air inlet, and the air outlet is provided with a dustproof plate. The air outlet is slightly larger than the first air inlet, and the width of the first air duct and the second air duct are also different. Generally speaking, the width of the first air duct is narrower than that of the second air duct. When the car starts, the air flow will flow in from the first air inlet in the front and flow out along the air outlet. At this time, the air pressure in the second air duct will be lower than that in the first air duct. Due to the pressure difference, the air flow will flow in from the second air inlet again, reach the junction of the first air duct and the second air duct, and merge into the air flow in the first air duct, and finally flow out from the air outlet. Since the second air duct is wider than the first air duct, the air flow rate is lower than that of the first air duct. The faster the flow rate, the higher the air pressure, forming a constant air flow direction, so that the entire internal air duct meets the design requirements of the Bernoulli principle, which can better promote the flow of internal air flow and improve the cooling ability. Dustproof plates are set on the first air inlet, the second air inlet and the air outlet, which can effectively prevent large foreign objects from entering the air duct and causing damage to the radiator.

[0011] Preferably, the temperature-controlled air chamber is provided with a detachable outer cover. The side of the temperature-controlled air chamber away from the handle is completely open and closed by the detachable outer cover. The detachable outer cover can be easily disassembled for cleaning the interior or replacing internal parts, thereby realizing the recyclability of the handle.

[0012] Preferably, the end of the handlebar away from the temperature-controlled air chamber is connected to one end of a fixing ring, and the other end of the fixing ring is connected to the handlebar. The end of the handlebar away from the temperature-controlled air chamber is connected to the fixing ring, and a portion of the fixing ring is not completely fitted onto the handlebar. Once the handlebar is connected to the handlebar, the fixing ring can be tightened onto the handlebar to secure the handlebar, facilitating assembly and disassembly.

[0013] Preferably, the temperature-controlled air chamber is provided with a knob connected to the control circuit, which is provided with a removable battery and a charging connector. A knob is provided on the side of the temperature-controlled air chamber closest to the user, located between the first air inlet and the air outlet.

The control circuit is provided with both a removable battery and a charging connector, providing more diverse options for powering the control circuit.

[0014] Preferably, the outer shape of the temperature-controlled air chamber is streamlined and waterproof, and the surface of the handle is provided with anti-slip grooves.

[0020] The specific implementation of the present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Example 1:

[0022] An intelligent handlebar temperature control device, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the handlebar 3 and temperature-controlled air chamber 8 comprise two components. The handlebar 3 is equipped with a heat conducting sheet 1 and a heat pipe 5. The heat conducting sheet 1 is coated with thermally conductive silicone and inserted into the handlebar 3, ensuring a close fit. Each heat conducting sheet 1 has two fixing holes, through which the ends of the heat pipe 5 are secured. The heat conducting sheet 1 can transfer heat from the heat pipe 5 to the entire handlebar 3, or from the handlebar 3 to the heat pipe 5, thereby achieving both heating and cooling functions.

[0023] The surface of the connection between the temperature-controlled air chamber 8 and the handle 3 is provided with a groove, the shape and size of which match the semiconductor refrigeration chip 13, and the semiconductor refrigeration chip 13 is placed in the groove. Then, a baffle 6 is placed on the surface of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 13, and the baffle 6 is fixed to the temperature-controlled air chamber 8 by screws 12, thereby fixing the semiconductor refrigeration chip 13. A thermal insulation gasket is also provided between the baffle 6 and the temperature-controlled air chamber 8. The thermal insulation gasket can separate the baffle 6 and the temperature-controlled air chamber 8, thereby isolating the heat of the handle 3 from the temperature-controlled air chamber 8, and improving the working efficiency of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 13. In addition, an opening is provided in the middle of the groove for the radiator 10 to extend into the temperature-controlled air chamber 8. The baffle 6 and the thermal insulation gasket 14 are also provided with an opening of appropriate size, so that the heat pipe 5 can be connected to the semiconductor refrigeration chip 13 through the buckle 4.

[0024] The end of the heat pipe 5 near the temperature-controlled air chamber 8 is secured to a semiconductor cooling chip 13 via a clip 4. This chip is connected to a control circuit 9. This circuit controls the two ends of the semiconductor cooling chip 13 to absorb and release heat. The semiconductor cooling chip 13 is in turn connected to a heat sink 10, which is located within the temperature-controlled air chamber 8 and prevents the hot surface of the semiconductor cooling chip 13 from burning during cooling.

[0025] A thermocouple temperature sensor 15 is installed within the handle 3, fitting snugly against the inside of the handle 3 and perfectly sensing its temperature. The temperature sensor 15 is connected to the control circuit 9, transmitting the sensed temperature to the control circuit 9. The control circuit 9 then automatically adjusts the cooling or heating mode based on a set threshold. The user can also manually adjust the cooling or heating power.

[0026] A first air inlet is provided at the front end of the temperature-controlled air chamber 8, i.e., the end away from the user. A second air inlet and an air outlet are provided at the other end of the temperature-controlled air chamber 8, i.e., the end closer to the user. The second air inlet is located above the air outlet and the two are separated. The first air inlet and the air outlet are connected to form a first air duct, and the second air inlet and the air outlet are connected to form a second air duct. The first air duct and the second air duct are connected. The radiator 10 is located within the second air duct, and the two air ducts converge below the radiator 10. The first air inlet is larger than the second air inlet, and the air outlet is provided with a dustproof plate. The air outlet is slightly larger than the first air inlet, so that the entire internal air duct meets the design requirements of the Bernoulli principle, can better promote the flow of internal airflow, and improve the cooling ability. When the vehicle is moving, the generated airflow enters through the first and second air inlets and then flows out through the air outlet, thereby removing heat from the radiator 10 and cooling the semiconductor cooling plate 13.

[0027] Dustproof plates 7 are provided on the first air inlet, the second air inlet and the air outlet to effectively prevent large foreign objects from entering the air duct and causing damage to the radiator 10.

[0028] The side of the temperature-controlled air chamber 8 away from the handle 3 is in a fully open state and is closed by a detachable outer cover 11. The detachable outer cover 11 is provided to facilitate disassembly when cleaning the interior or replacing internal parts, thereby realizing the recyclable utilization of the handle 3.

[0029] The end of the grip 3 away from the temperature-controlled air chamber 8 is connected to the fixing ring 2. A portion of the fixing ring 2 is not completely fitted on the grip 3. Once the grip 3 is connected to the handlebar, the fixing ring 2 can be tightened onto the handlebar to achieve fixation with the handlebar, facilitating assembly and disassembly.

[0030] A knob is located on the user-friendly side of the temperature-controlled air chamber 8, positioned between the first air inlet and the air outlet. This knob is connected to the control circuit 9 and can be used to adjust the temperature of the handle 3 to maintain a suitable temperature. The control circuit 9 is equipped with both a removable battery and a charging connector, providing a variety of power supply options for the control circuit 9.

[0031] The shape of the temperature control air chamber 8 is set to a popular waterproof type, which has a better waterproof effect when combined with the dustproof plate 7. The surface of the handle 3 is also provided with anti-skid patterns that enhance friction, which not only plays an anti-skid role but also makes it more beautiful.

[0032] Example 2:

[0033] The temperature-controlled air chamber 8 is equipped with a mode adjustment button connected to the control circuit 9. When the button is pressed, the control circuit 9 starts working and enters the automatic control mode. Pressing the button again enters the manual control mode, where the temperature can be adjusted by the knob. Pressing the button a third time stops the control circuit 9.

[0034] The above embodiments merely illustrate 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. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make numerous variations and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and all such variations and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
