Therefore, in order to ensure the normal operation of the charging machine, a liquid cooling heat dissipation device is generally used to dissipate heat for the heating electronic elements.

[0057] In the existing on-board charger, there are many power devices in the charger during the charging process. For example, the high-voltage capacitor will heat up due to the increase of voltage, the temperature of the switch tube will also rise significantly under large current, and the loss of the magnetic material in the high-frequency transformer and the resistance loss of the coil will also generate a large amount of heat. Therefore, in order to ensure the normal operation of the charger, a liquid cooling heat dissipation device is generally used to dissipate heat for the heating electronic elements. The working principle of the liquid cooling heat dissipation mode is to exchange heat between the charger and the cooler through circulating water or other heat-conducting medium to achieve the purpose of cooling. The internal liquid cooling module is driven by a water pump to circulate the cooling liquid for heat dissipation, and the outside is cooled by a low-speed large-volume fan or an air conditioner to dissipate the heat on the radiator. Since the internal liquid cooling module needs to remove the heat of the power device by heat transfer, the power device is generally in direct contact with the heat sink. However, the cooling module uses cooling liquid in the cooling flow channel as the heat dissipation medium, and the cooling liquid acts as a conductor. Once the cooling liquid leaks due to the failure of the water nozzle seal, it is easy to cause short circuit of the electronic elements, resulting in damage to the charger and safety hazards.

[0058] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a heat dissipation structure, Figures 1-17 The present application provides a heat dissipation structure.

[0059] Please refer to Figures 1-5 The heat dissipation structure 100 includes a mounting body 1, a heat dissipation member 2, an adapter 3 and a water nozzle connecting portion 1111. The mounting body 1 includes a sealed cavity, and the cavity wall of the sealed cavity is provided with a communication hole. The heat dissipation member 2 is arranged in the sealed cavity and dissipates heat for the electronic elements in the sealed cavity. The heat dissipation member 2 has two connecting ports 2a and a heat dissipation flow channel 2b communicating the two connecting ports 2a. The adapter 3 has two external interfaces 3a, two internal interfaces 3b and two adapter channels 3c. Each adapter channel 3c communicates one external interface 3a and one internal interface 3b. The adapter 3 is arranged in the communication hole to have a first end located outside the sealed cavity and a second end located in the sealed cavity. The first end of the adapter 3 includes a first adapter portion 31, and the first adapter portion 31 is provided with two external interfaces 3a. The second end of the adapter 3 is provided with two internal interfaces 3b, and each internal interface 3b is welded with a corresponding connecting port 2a. The water nozzle connecting portion 1111 is formed on the outside of the mounting body 1. The water nozzle connecting portion 1111 has two first interfaces 1111a, two second interfaces 1111b and two connecting channels 1111c. Each connecting channel 1111c communicates one first interface 1111a and one second interface 1111b. The side of the first adapter portion 31 facing the water nozzle connecting portion 1111 is provided with two external interfaces 3a, and each first interface 1111a is connected with a corresponding external interface 3a.

[0060] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3The installation main body 1 can be a shell of a charger, and of course, the installation main body 1 can also be another installation component other than the shell of the charger. The specific shape of the installation main body 1 can be a cube, a cuboid, or even a special-shaped structure. Of course, in general, in order to maintain the stability of the installation main body 1 and the spatial arrangement of the heat dissipation structure 100, the optimal setting can be a cuboid. Of course, other possible shapes can also be used, and the specific setting can be determined according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0061] In the present embodiment, the heat dissipation member 2 can be made of a metal material with good heat conduction performance, such as aluminum, copper, etc. In order to avoid the heat dissipation member 2 made of metal material from being conductive with the power device 200, an insulating material can be coated or plated on the surface of the metal material, or an insulating sheet can be arranged on the surface of the metal material in contact with the power device. As for the shape of the heat dissipation member 2, in order to maximize the heat dissipation area of the heat dissipation member 2, the heat dissipation member 2 can be arranged in a U shape, or an S shape, or other possible shapes. It can be understood that the heat dissipation flow channel 2b is arranged in an extending direction of the heat dissipation member 2, so that the heat dissipation flow channel 2b can be as long as possible, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency. Of course, the specific shape and material of the heat dissipation member 2 and the heat dissipation flow channel 2b can also be determined according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0062] In the present embodiment, the adapter 3 is a water nozzle connecting part 1111 connecting the heat dissipation member 2 and the external circulating water path. In order to ensure the sealing property of the sealed cavity, the adapter 3 is arranged in a shape matching the communication hole, so that the inside of the sealed cavity is isolated from the outside. The material of the adapter 3 can also be profiled, graphene, aluminum oxide, etc. The specific shape and material of the adapter 3 can also be determined according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0063] In the present embodiment, the adapter 3 and the heat dissipation member 2 can be connected by welding, or can be fixedly connected by clamping or bonding. Preferably, the adapter 3 and the heat dissipation member 2 are profiled. In this way, the stable connection between the two can be ensured by welding, and the heat dissipation module after welding has the advantages of light weight, high strength, and strong heat dissipation capacity.

[0064] It can be understood that each inner interface 3b is welded to the corresponding connecting port 2a, and the welding method has high reliability and is not prone to liquid leakage. Of course, under the premise of ensuring the sealing, each inner interface 3b and the corresponding connecting port 2a can also be in the form of sealed connection. Of course, the first interface 1111a and the corresponding outer interface 3a can also be connected by welding or sealing connection, and the specific connection form of the first interface 1111a and the outer interface 3a is not limited in the present application. Various connection methods that ensure no leakage are also within the protection scope of the present application.

[0065] It can be understood that the two second interfaces 1111b are connected with the external circulating water path, one of the two second interfaces 1111b can be set as a water inlet, and the other second interface 1111b can be set as a water outlet, so that two connection channels 1111c are formed on the water nozzle connecting part 1111, one of the two connection channels 1111c is set as a water inlet channel, and the other is set as a water outlet channel. That is, the cooling liquid flowing into the water inlet channel flows into the heat dissipation flow channel 2b through an adapter channel 3c, and then flows into the water outlet channel through another adapter channel 3c. The cooling liquid flowing out of the water outlet is cooled by the external circulating water path, and then flows into the water inlet channel from the water inlet again. The above water path circulation is repeated.

[0066] In this way, the water nozzle connecting part 1111 is arranged on the mounting body 1 to connect the adapter part and the external circulating water path. The joint of the external circulating water path can be stably connected with the two second interfaces 1111b. When the heat dissipation part 2 and the adapter part 3 need to be disassembled, the adapter part 3 can be directly disassembled from the mounting body 1 without disassembling the joint of the external circulating water path, thereby ensuring the sealing of the circulating water path. In addition, the shape and structure of the two outer interfaces 3a can not be suitable for the joint of the external circulating water path. The two second interfaces 1111b can be connected with the external circulating water path and sealed.

[0067] In another embodiment, two adapter joints can also be arranged on the adapter part 3. One end of each adapter joint is adapted to the outer interface 3a, and the other end is set to a shape that can be adapted to the joint of the external circulating water path.

[0068] In the technical scheme, the mounting body 1 is formed with a sealed cavity, the heat dissipation piece 2 is arranged in the sealed cavity, the adapter piece 3 is arranged in the communication hole, the first end of the adapter piece 3 is located outside the sealed cavity, the second end of the adapter piece 3 is located inside the sealed cavity, the adapter piece 3 is fixed with the heat dissipation piece 2, and the two inner interfaces 3b on the second end of the adapter piece 3 are respectively connected with the two connecting interfaces 2a on the heat dissipation piece 2, so that the two adapter channels 3c and the heat dissipation flow channel 2b can be communicated, the water nozzle connecting part 1111 is formed on the outer side of the mounting body 1, the water nozzle connecting part 1111 has two first interfaces 1111a, two second interfaces 1111b and two connecting channels 1111c, each connecting channel 1111c communicates one first interface 1111a and one second interface 1111b, each first interface 1111a is connected with a corresponding outer interface 3a, and the two outer interfaces 3a on the first end of the adapter piece 3 are used for being connected with the external circulating water channel, so that the cooling liquid can enter the adapter channel 3c from one outer interface 3a on the first end of the adapter piece 3, then flow through the heat dissipation flow channel 2b, then pass through the other adapter channel 3c, and then flow out from the other outer interface 3a, the power device 200 can be attached to or fixed on the heat dissipation piece 2, when the cooling liquid flows through the heat dissipation flow channel 2b, the heat of the power device 200 can be taken away by the heat dissipation piece 2, when the two outer interfaces 3a are arranged outside the sealed cavity, when the connection between the two outer interfaces 3a and the external circulating water channel is not sealed, the cooling liquid leaks outside the sealed cavity, so that the external cooling liquid or water vapor can be isolated from the power device 200, the electronic device in the sealed cavity is prevented from being damaged due to short circuit, and the heat dissipation structure 100 can isolate the cooling liquid from the internal electronic elements of the charger, so that the charger can work safely.

[0069] In another embodiment, the heat dissipation piece 2 and the adapter piece 3 can be integrally formed as a heat dissipation module, the heat dissipation module is partially arranged in the sealed cavity and forms a heat dissipation structure, and the part of the heat dissipation module located outside the sealed cavity forms an adapter structure connected with the external circulating water channel.

[0070] Compared with the heat dissipation piece 2 and the adapter piece 3 which are separately formed and then assembled, the shape of the integrally formed heat dissipation module can be affected by the forming process, but the connection between the connecting interface 2a of the heat dissipation piece 2 and the inner interface 3b in the sealed cavity has better sealing integrity compared with the form of separate forming and then assembling.

[0071] In the embodiment, in order to facilitate the installation of the heat dissipation module and the electronic device, please refer to Figures 1-3, the installation main body 1 comprises a shell 11 and a cover (not shown in the figure), the shell 11 comprises a plurality of side portions and a bottom portion, the plurality of side portions and the bottom portion are enclosed to form a containing groove 11a, when the charger needs to be assembled, the heat dissipation member 2 and electronic devices and the like can be arranged in the containing groove 11a from the slot of the containing groove 11a, and then the cover is covered on the slot of the containing groove 11a to form a sealed cavity with the shell 11. The plurality of side portions comprise a first side portion 111, the outer side of the first side portion 111 comprises a water nozzle connecting portion 1111, the top of the first side portion 111 is recessed with a communication groove 111a, and the inner wall of the communication groove 111a is enclosed with the cover to form a communication hole.

[0073] In order to ensure that the cover is covered on the slot of the containing groove, the sealing performance of the sealed cavity formed is better, a sealing ring is arranged between the cover and the slot of the containing groove, and the sealing ring is arranged between the peripheral edge of the slot of the containing groove and the cover, so as to ensure the sealing performance between the shell and the cover, and to form a sealed cavity with good sealing performance.

[0074] In the embodiment, please refer to Figures 12-17 The second end of the adapter 3 comprises a second adapter portion 32, two inner interfaces 3b are arranged on the second adapter portion 32, and each adapter channel 3c penetrates through the first adapter portion 31 and the second adapter portion 32; two connecting ports 2a are arranged on one end of the heat dissipation member 2 close to the second adapter portion 32.

[0075] It can be understood that, in order to make the heat dissipation member 2 have a larger heat exchange area, the heat dissipation member 2 is preferably arranged in a structure similar to the letter U or M type, and the shapes of the two inner interfaces 3b and the two connecting ports 2a are matched, the inner interfaces 3b and the connecting ports 2a can be arranged as elongated holes extending in the second direction, the two inner interfaces 3b are arranged in parallel and side by side, and the two connecting ports 2a are correspondingly arranged in parallel and side by side.

[0076] In the embodiment, please refer to Figures 7-11, the first adapter part 31 extends along a first direction, and the second adapter part 32 extends along a second direction intersecting the first direction.
