Traditional air cooling is not enough for high-power density optical modules, while liquid cooling has gradually become the mainstream trend in the industry with its excellent heat dissipation effect.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0038] The present application is described below based on embodiments, but the present application is not limited to these embodiments. In the detailed description of the present application below, some specific details are described in detail. It is possible for those skilled in the art to fully understand the present application without the description of these details.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0041] Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, the words "include", "comprising" and similar words throughout the application should be interpreted as including rather than exclusive or exhaustive; that is, the meaning is "including but not limited to".
[0042] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. In addition, in the description of this application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more.
[0043] In the prior art, the liquid inlet and outlet of the liquid cooling plate are usually arranged at the edge positions near the two sides of the liquid cooling plate. When multiple liquid cooling plates are arranged side by side, the liquid outlet of the previous liquid cooling plate is arranged adjacent to the liquid inlet of the next liquid cooling plate, and the distance between the two is relatively short. When adjacent liquid cooling plates are connected in series through adjacent holes, the distance between the liquid outlet and liquid inlet of the two liquid cooling plates is relatively short, and they cannot be connected in series, or the bending angle of the pipeline is too sharp, resulting in increased water flow resistance, which affects the cooling effect of the liquid cooling plate and even creates the risk of pipeline damage.
[0044] The embodiment of the present application provides a heat dissipation device, which includes at least one group of heat dissipation modules 100, each group of heat dissipation modules 100 includes at least two first liquid cooling plates 1 arranged side by side, and all the first liquid cooling plates 1 in each group of heat dissipation modules 100 are connected in series to form a series circuit, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7 Each first liquid cooling plate 1 includes a liquid cooling channel 13 having a liquid inlet 11 and a liquid outlet 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 and Fig.10 As shown. A fluid connection module is provided on the outside of the first liquid cooling plate 1, and the fluid connection module includes a connecting hole 2. After the fluid connection module and the first liquid cooling plate 1 are connected, a guide channel 3 is formed between the two. One side of the guide channel 3 is connected to the connecting hole 2, and the other side of the guide channel 3 is connected to the liquid inlet 11 or the liquid outlet 12 of the first liquid cooling plate 1. In other words, each liquid inlet 11 is connected to a connecting hole 2 through a guide channel 3, and each liquid outlet 12 is connected to a connecting hole 2 through a guide channel 3, and the guide channels 3 are independent of each other and do not interfere with each other.
[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the outermost liquid inlet 11 in each group of heat dissipation modules 100 is connected to the first liquid inlet pipe 4 through the corresponding connecting hole 2, and the outermost liquid outlet 12 is connected to the first liquid return pipe 5 through the corresponding connecting hole 2. Among all the other liquid outlets 12 and liquid inlets 11, the adjacent liquid outlets 12 and liquid inlets 11 are connected in series with the two ends of the connecting pipe 6 through the corresponding connecting holes 2, thereby forming a cooling circuit. In other words, the liquid outlet 12 and the liquid inlet 11 connected by the connecting pipe 6 through the two connecting holes 2 are adjacent to each other and belong to the two adjacent first liquid cooling plates 1 respectively. Among them, the distance between the two connecting holes 2 connected at the two ends of the connecting pipe 6 is greater than the distance between the adjacent liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 in the adjacent two first liquid cooling plates 1 located at the edge position in the prior art, providing installation space for the connecting pipe 6. The increase in space increases the bending radius and operability of the connecting pipe, reduces the flow resistance, and improves the heat dissipation capacity.
[0046] In one embodiment, the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 of the first liquid cooling plate 1 are arranged near the edge positions of both sides of the first liquid cooling plate 1. Figure 6 The fluid connection module includes a first connecting block 21 and a second connecting block 22, and the first connecting block 21 and the second connecting block 22 are respectively connected to the edge positions of both sides of the first liquid cooling plate 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 That is, the outer side of the liquid inlet 11 is connected to the first interconnecting block 21, and the outer side of the liquid outlet 12 is connected to the second interconnecting block 22, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 shown.
[0047] Among them, a connecting hole 2 is provided on the first connecting block 21. After the first connecting block 21 is connected to the outside of the liquid inlet 11 of the first liquid cooling plate 1, a guiding channel 3 is formed between the first connecting block 21 and the first liquid cooling plate 1. Figure 4 and Figure 6 The connecting hole 2 and the liquid inlet 11 of the first connecting block 21 are respectively connected to the openings at both ends of the guide channel 3, so that the connecting hole 2 and the liquid inlet 11 of the first connecting block 21 are staggered and not opposite, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 Preferably, the connecting hole 2 and the liquid inlet 11 are respectively connected to the guide channel 3 vertically. The second connecting block 22 is provided with a connecting hole 2. After the second connecting block 22 is connected to the outer side of the liquid outlet 12 of the first liquid cooling plate 1, a guide channel 3 is formed between the second connecting block 22 and the first liquid cooling plate 1. Figure 5 and Figure 6The connecting hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 of the second connecting block 22 are respectively connected to the openings at both ends of the guide channel 3, so that the connecting hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 of the second connecting block 22 are staggered and not opposite to each other, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 Preferably, the communication hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 are vertically connected to the guide channel 3 respectively.
[0048] Among them, "the communicating hole 2 and the liquid inlet 11 are staggered and not opposite to each other" means that the communicating hole 2 and the liquid inlet 11 are staggered or obliquely staggered in the horizontal direction (i.e., the length direction / left and right), so that the two are not opposite to each other. "The communicating hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 are staggered and not opposite to each other" means that the communicating hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 can be staggered or obliquely staggered in the horizontal direction (i.e., the length direction / left and right), so that the two are not opposite to each other.
[0049] In this embodiment, the connecting hole 2 of the first connecting block 21 and the connecting hole 2 of the second connecting block 22 are located between the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 of the first liquid cooling plate 1, so that the distance between the connecting hole 2 of the adjacent second connecting block 22 and the connecting hole 2 of the first connecting block 21 on two adjacent first liquid cooling plates 1 is greater than the distance between the adjacent liquid outlet 12 and the liquid inlet 11, thereby providing space for the connecting pipe 6 to connect the two first liquid cooling plates 1 in series, increasing the bending radius and operability of the connecting pipe 6, thereby reducing the flow resistance and improving the heat dissipation capacity. The setting of the guide channel 3 makes the connecting hole staggered with the liquid inlet 11 or the liquid outlet 12, increasing the distance between the two ends of the connecting pipe 6 in series, increasing the bending radius and operability of the connecting pipe 6, thereby reducing the flow resistance and improving the heat dissipation capacity. At the same time, the guide channel 3 is a smooth channel, which can reduce the flow resistance of the coolant, and its smoothness can be set according to needs.
[0050] Preferably, the first interconnecting block 21 and the second interconnecting block 22 are two completely symmetrical structures. After being connected to the first liquid cooling plate 1, the two guide channels 3 formed are completely symmetrical. Among them, whether the connecting hole 2 and the liquid inlet 11, the connecting hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 are staggered along the length direction or staggered along the diagonal direction needs to be selected according to the space in front of the first liquid cooling plate. The following is a specific implementation of the diagonal staggering.
[0051] The guide channel 3 is an L-shaped channel or an obliquely extending channel, which makes the liquid inlet 11 and the connecting hole 2 of the first connecting block 21 staggered and not opposite, and the liquid outlet 12 and the connecting hole 2 of the second connecting block 22 staggered and not opposite. Staggered and not opposite includes staggered upward or staggered downward, which means that the two are staggered in both the height direction and the horizontal direction. The staggered and not opposite mode can meet the requirements of the installation space.
[0052] Figure 3-Figure 5The first liquid cooling plate 1 is provided with a first fluid groove 14, the first fluid groove 14 is located outside the liquid inlet 11, and the liquid inlet 11 is connected to the end of the first fluid groove 14 close to the outside, and the first liquid cooling plate 1 is provided with a third fluid groove 15, the third fluid groove 15 is located outside the liquid outlet 12, and the liquid outlet 12 is connected to the end of the third fluid groove 15 close to the outside, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The first connecting block 21 is provided with a second fluid groove 211, the second fluid groove 211 is located on one side of the connecting hole 2, and the end of the second fluid groove 211 close to the inner side is connected to the connecting hole 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 The second connecting block 22 is provided with a fourth fluid groove 221, which is located at one side of the connecting hole 2, and one end of the fourth fluid groove 221 close to the inner side is connected with the connecting hole 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown. The first fluid groove 14 and the second fluid groove 211 are completely symmetrical, and the third fluid groove 15 and the fourth fluid groove 221 are completely symmetrical. After the first connecting block 21, the second connecting block 22 and the first liquid cooling plate 1 are connected, the first fluid groove 14 and the second fluid groove 211 are buckled to form a guide channel 3, and the third fluid groove 15 and the fourth fluid groove 221 are buckled to form a guide channel 3. Figure 6 The formation method of the guide channel 3 is convenient for processing and operation.
[0053] In another embodiment, the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 of the first liquid cooling plate 1 are arranged at the center of the first liquid cooling plate 1. Figure 8 The fluid connection module includes a third interconnecting block 23, and the third interconnecting block 23 is connected to the outside of the center position of the first liquid cooling plate 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 and Fig.10 As shown. The third interconnecting block 23 is provided with two connecting holes 2. After the third interconnecting block 23 is connected to the outer side of the first liquid cooling plate 1, two independent guide channels 3 are formed between the third interconnecting block 23 and the first liquid cooling plate 1. Fig.10 One end of the two guide channels 3 is connected to the two corresponding connecting holes 2, and the other end of the two guide channels 3 is connected to the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12, so that one connecting hole 2 of the third connecting block 23 and the liquid inlet 11 are staggered and not opposite, and the other connecting hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 are staggered and not opposite. Preferably, the connecting hole 2, the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 are connected to the guide channels 3 vertically, respectively.
[0054] In this embodiment, the guide channel 3 is extended in the height direction, and the distance between the two connecting holes 2 is the same as the distance between the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12, so that one of the connecting holes 2 and the liquid inlet 11 is staggered and not opposite in the height direction, and the other connecting hole 2 and the liquid outlet 12 are staggered and not opposite in the height direction. In this embodiment, by arranging the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 at the center position of the first liquid cooling plate 1, the distance between the adjacent liquid outlets 12 and the liquid inlet 11 of two adjacent first liquid cooling plates 1 is greater than the distance between the liquid outlet 12 and the liquid inlet 11 in the previous embodiment, providing installation space for the adjacent holes of the connecting pipe 6 to be connected in series, thereby increasing the bending radius and operability of the connecting pipe 6, thereby reducing the flow resistance and improving the heat dissipation capacity.
[0055] Furthermore, the first liquid cooling plate 1 is provided with a first fluid groove 14 and a third fluid groove 15, the first fluid groove 14 is located outside the liquid inlet 11, and the liquid inlet 11 is connected to the end of the first fluid groove 14 close to the bottom, and the third fluid groove 15 is located outside the liquid outlet 12, and the liquid outlet 12 is connected to the end of the third fluid groove 15 close to the bottom, such as Figure 8 The third interconnecting block 23 is provided with two fifth fluid grooves 231, the two fifth fluid grooves 231 are respectively located on one side of the two communicating holes 2, and the ends of the two fifth fluid grooves 231 close to the upper side are respectively connected to the two communicating holes 2, as shown in FIG. Fig. 9 shown.
[0056] Among them, the first fluid groove 14, the third fluid groove 15 and the two fifth fluid grooves 231 are completely symmetrical. After the third connecting block 23 and the first liquid cooling plate 1 are connected, the first fluid groove 14 and the third fluid groove 15 are respectively buckled with the two fifth fluid grooves 231 in a one-to-one correspondence to form a guide channel 3. Fig.10 The formation method of the guide channel 3 is convenient for processing and operation.
[0057] In addition, for the first liquid cooling plate 1 in which the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12 are arranged at the center position of the first liquid cooling plate 1, the joints can be directly connected to the connecting pipes at the liquid inlet 11 and the liquid outlet 12, and the bending radius and operability of the connecting pipe 6 can be increased, thereby reducing the flow resistance and improving the heat dissipation capacity.
[0058] In the embodiment of the present application, the heat dissipation device may include multiple groups of heat dissipation modules 100, and the first liquid cooling plates 1 in the multiple groups of heat dissipation modules 100 are connected in series by connecting adjacent holes to form a loop. Among them, the first liquid inlet pipes 4 and the first liquid return pipes 5 of the multiple groups of heat dissipation modules 100 are respectively connected to the cooling distribution unit through the first liquid distributor 7 and the second liquid distributor 8 to form multiple first cooling liquid loops arranged in parallel, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7 A main liquid inlet pipe 101 is connected between the first liquid distributor 7 and the cold distribution unit, and a main liquid return pipe 102 is connected between the second liquid distributor 8 and the cold distribution unit. Figure 1 and Figure 7 shown.
[0059] The first liquid distributor 7 and the second liquid distributor 8 have multiple liquid inlets and liquid return ports, and the first liquid distributor 7 and the second liquid distributor 8 are used to divert the coolant to form multiple parallel loops. The parallel arrangement of multiple first coolant loops means that in a liquid cooling system, multiple first coolant loops are independently connected to the same cold distribution unit, and each first coolant loop can be cooled independently without being affected by other loops, which can effectively improve the heat dissipation efficiency. In an optional embodiment, the main liquid inlet pipe 101 and the main liquid return pipe 102 can be connected to the cold distribution unit through quick connectors, respectively. Among them, the quick connector is pluggable and connected to the cold distribution unit, making the installation of the heat dissipation device more convenient.
[0060] Among them, the number of first liquid cooling plates 1 in each group of heat dissipation modules 100 may be the same or different, and the number of heat dissipation modules 100 and the number of first liquid cooling plates 1 in each group of heat dissipation modules 100 are determined according to the product specifications of the optical module. In the embodiment of the present application, multiple groups and multiple refer to two or more. Preferably, multiple groups of heat dissipation modules 100 are arranged side by side inside an electronic device, and side-by-side arrangement refers to arrangement in the same direction inside an electronic device or on a panel to achieve high-density installation and efficient management, which helps to optimize the space utilization inside the device and facilitates later maintenance and upgrading. In addition, multiple groups of heat dissipation modules 100 can also be set at corresponding positions according to specific needs.
[0061] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the heat dissipation device may also include a second liquid cold plate 9, and the second liquid cold plate 9 may also be connected to the cold distribution unit through the above-mentioned first liquid distributor 7 and the second liquid distributor 8 to form a second coolant circuit. The second coolant circuit is arranged in parallel with the first coolant circuit to improve the heat dissipation efficiency. Specifically, the first liquid distributor 7 is connected to the second liquid cold plate 9 through the second liquid inlet pipe 91, and the second liquid distributor 8 is connected to the second liquid cold plate 9 through the second liquid return pipe 92. The coolant flows out of the cold distribution unit through the main liquid inlet pipe 101 and the first liquid distributor 7, enters the second liquid inlet pipe 91 and flows into the second liquid cold plate 9, and then flows out from the second liquid cold plate 9 through the second liquid return pipe 92 to the second liquid distributor 8, and returns to the cold distribution unit through the main liquid return pipe 102.
[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, both ends of each liquid inlet pipe and liquid return pipe can be connected to the corresponding connecting hole, liquid inlet and liquid outlet through a quick connector. The quick connector is used to ensure that the pipeline connection is both fast and reliable, while preventing leakage and ensuring that the system can operate stably for a long time. Among them, common types of quick connectors include quick plug-in connectors, threaded connectors, ferrule connectors, crimp connectors, and flange connectors. The selection of connectors depends on the type of coolant, working pressure, temperature range, connection frequency, etc.
[0063] The heat dissipation module in the heat dissipation device of the embodiment of the present application includes at least two first liquid cooling plates arranged side by side and connected in series. By adding a fluid connection module in front of the first liquid cooling plate, the connecting hole of the fluid connection module replaces the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet to be connected to the corresponding pipeline, and the distance between adjacent connecting holes of adjacent fluid connection modules is greater than the distance between the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet of existing adjacent liquid cooling plates.
