Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

By using the water inlet hollow column 16, it is convenient to inflate the water chamber 13 The water in the water tank is guided into the water guide groove 15, so that water is injected into the power bridge, thereby facilitating water cooling of the power bridge; at the same time, the water inlet hollow column 16 can also increase the contact area between the top cover 2 and the power bridge shell 1, thereby making the connection between the top cover 2 and the power bridge shell 1 more stable; and the top of the water inlet hollow column 16 passes through the water holding cavity 13, and a transition water cavity 22 is opened on one side of the power bridge shell 1. Through the use of the transition water cavity 22, the water in the water guide groove 15 is facilitated to transition, thereby realizing the flow of water and improving the heat dissipation effect of the power bridge; the transition water cavity 22 and the water guide groove 15 are connected by a short tube 23, which facilitates the entry of water into the transition water cavity 22.

[0029] In the present invention, the boosting mechanism includes a piston plate 12 slidably arranged on one side of the sealed chamber 8, a plurality of extrusion springs 7 are evenly arranged between one side of the piston plate 12 and the sealed chamber 8, an air outlet pipe 6 connected to the water holding chamber 13 is symmetrically arranged on one side of the bottom surface of the sealed chamber 8, a one-way air outlet valve 3 is provided on the outer wall of the air outlet pipe 6, an air inlet pipe 5 is provided on one side of the sealed chamber 8, a one-way air inlet valve 4 is installed on the outer wall of the air inlet pipe 5, mercury is provided between the other side of the piston plate 12 and the sealed chamber 8, an installation groove is opened on the bottom surface of the sealed chamber 8, and a heat conducting component is provided in the installation groove. Through the use of the heat conducting component, the heat generated inside the power bridge is conveniently conducted to the mercury, so that the mercury expands due to heat, thereby pushing the piston plate 12 to move, and the gas in the sealed chamber 8 is transported to the water holding chamber 13, thereby increasing the pressure in the water holding chamber 13.

[0030] In the present invention, the heat conduction component includes a heat conduction plate 10 arranged in the installation groove, and a plurality of tentacles 11 are evenly provided on the top of the heat conduction plate 10. The use of the tentacles 11 facilitates increasing the contact area between the heat conduction plate 10 and the mercury, thereby facilitating rapid contact between heat and mercury, thereby facilitating rapid expansion of mercury; a heat conduction rod 20 is provided on the bottom surface of the heat conduction plate 10, and one end of the heat conduction rod 20 penetrates into the power bridge housing 1.

[0031] In the present invention, the outer wall of the heat-conducting rod 20 is wrapped with a vacuum tube 14. The use of the vacuum tube 14 prevents external heat from entering the mercury through the heat-conducting rod 20, thereby isolating the influence of external heat on the mercury, further ensuring that the heat absorbed by the mercury is generated for the power bridge; and the heat-conducting plate 10, the heat-conducting rod 20 and the antenna 11 are all made of silver, which prevents mercury from reacting and melting the heat-conducting plate 10, the heat-conducting rod 20 and the antenna 11, thereby improving the service life of the heat-conducting plate 10, the heat-conducting rod 20 and the antenna 11.

[0032] In the present invention, an annular groove 9 is provided inside the top cover 2 outside the sealed cavity 8, and the annular groove 9 is filled with heat-insulating glue. The use of the heat-insulating glue facilitates isolation of external heat and prevents external heat from entering the mercury through the top cover 2, thereby ensuring that the heat absorbed by the mercury is generated by the power bridge.

[0033] In the present invention, a plurality of water inlet holes 21 are evenly provided on the outer wall of the water inlet hollow column 16 from top to bottom, so that water can be injected into the water guide groove 15 from the water inlet holes 21, and the water can be evenly distributed in the water guide groove 15, so as to effectively dissipate heat for the power bridge and improve the heat dissipation effect of the power bridge; and the water inlet groove 18 and the water guide groove 15 are connected.

[0034] In the present invention, a return water groove 19 is symmetrically opened on the other side of the top of the power bridge shell 1, and a return water hollow column 17 is provided in the return water groove 19, wherein the return water hollow column 17 can guide the water in the transition water chamber 22 into the water holding chamber 13, and at the same time increase the contact area between the top cover 2 and the power bridge shell 1, so that the connection between the top cover 2 and the power bridge shell 1 is more stable; and the top of the return water hollow column 17 penetrates into the water holding chamber 13, and the bottom penetrates into the transition water chamber 22 and extends to the bottom. A micro water pump 24 is installed at the bottom of the return water hollow column 17. Through the use of the micro water pump 24, it is convenient to return the water in the transition water chamber 22 to the water holding chamber 13, so as to replenish the water in the water holding chamber 13. At that time, when replenishing water, it is necessary to open the valve on the water inlet pipe to facilitate the communication between the water holding chamber 13 and the outside world, so as to avoid the water holding chamber 13 from rupturing due to excessive pressure when replenishing water in the water holding chamber 13, thereby facilitating the protection of the water holding chamber 13.

[0035] In the present invention, a dynamic sealing structure is formed between the piston plate 12 and the sealing chamber 8, and the piston plate 12 is made of silver to prevent the piston plate 12 from corroding due to reaction with mercury, thereby facilitating the protection of the piston plate 12 and improving the service life of the piston plate 12.

[0036] In the present invention, a one-way liquid inlet valve 26 is installed in the water inlet hollow column 16 to ensure that the water in the water holding chamber 13 flows into the water guide groove 15 from the water inlet hollow column 16, thereby realizing one-way flow of water; a one-way liquid outlet valve 25 is installed in the short tube 23 to realize that the water in the water guide groove 15 flows into the transition water chamber 22, and the water in the transition water chamber 22 will not flow back into the water guide groove 15, thereby ensuring one-way flow of water in the water guide groove 15.

[0037] Working Principle: When the power bridge is in use, the present invention generates heat. The heat is then transferred to the heat conducting plate 10 through the heat conducting rod 20. The heat is then dispersed into the mercury through the antenna 11, causing the mercury to expand due to the heat, thereby pushing the piston plate 12 to move, and further transferring the gas in the sealed chamber 8 to the water chamber 13 through the gas outlet pipe 6.

[0038] By injecting gas into the water chamber 13 to increase its internal pressure, the water in the water chamber 13 is injected into the water inlet groove 18 through the water inlet hollow column 16. The water then flows through the water inlet hole 21 and disperses in the water guide groove 15. The flow of water removes the heat generated by the power bridge during operation. Finally, the water enters the transition water chamber 22 through the short tube 23.

[0039] When the temperature of the power bridge is too low, the temperature of the mercury will also drop, and the volume of the mercury will decrease. Then, under the action of the extrusion spring 7, the piston plate 12 will be reset, thereby gathering the mercury together to dissipate heat from the power bridge again. When the temperature inside the power bridge rises, the heat will cause the mercury to expand again, so that water will enter the power bridge again, and the power bridge will dissipate heat again.

[0040] When it is necessary to transport the water in the transition water chamber 22 to the water holding chamber 13, first open the water inlet pipe on the water holding chamber 13 to facilitate the communication between the water holding chamber 13 and the outside world and to facilitate the entry of water into the water holding chamber 13. Then turn on the micro water pump 24 to transport the water in the transition water chamber 22 to the water holding chamber 13 through the micro water pump 24, so as to replenish the water holding chamber 13. Finally, after the water replenishment is completed, close the valve of the water inlet pipe to ensure the sealing of the water holding chamber 13.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
