[0041] In order to enable you, the examiner, to further understand the features and technical contents of this application, please refer to the following detailed description and drawings of this application. However, the attached drawings are only provided for reference and explanation and are not intended to limit this application.
[0042] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which are respectively a three-dimensional exploded view and a planar unfolded view of the first embodiment of the present application. The present application provides a temperature-averaging plate supporting a capillary structure, comprising a first plate body 1, a second plate body 2, and a capillary layer 3; wherein:
[0043] The first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are overlapped to form a chamber C between the first and second plates 1 and 2 (i.e. Figure 3As shown). In the embodiment of the present application, the first plate body 1 has a first inner surface 10 and faces the second plate body 2, and the second plate body 2 also has a second inner surface 20 and faces the first plate body 1 or the first inner surface 10, and the chamber C is formed between the first inner surface 10 and the second inner surface 20; specifically, as in the first embodiment of the present application, the first inner surface 10 of the first plate body 1 and the second inner surface 20 of the second plate body 2 can be respectively concave to form the chamber C together, or only one of the first and second inner surfaces 10 and 20 can be concave, and the other can be planar and relatively cover to close the chamber C, as shown in the second embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 shown.
[0044] As mentioned above, the first plate body 1 may also be provided with a first sealing edge 11 surrounding the outside of the first inner surface 10, and the second plate body 2 may also be provided with a second sealing edge 21 surrounding the outside of the second inner surface 20, and when the first plate body 1 and the second plate body 2 are covered, the first sealing edge 11 and the second sealing edge 21 fit together and can be sealed by a process such as welding, so as to seal an appropriate amount of working fluid in the above-mentioned chamber C (figure omitted). Furthermore, as Figure 3 As shown, the first sealing edge 11 may protrude from the first inner surface 10, and the second sealing edge 21 may protrude from the second inner surface 21; in other feasible embodiments, only one of the first plate body 1 or the second plate body 2 may have the first sealing edge 11 or the second sealing edge 21, and the other may be flat and overlap each other, that is, Figure 4 For example, the second plate body 2 has the second sealing edge 21, and the first plate body 1 is flat and overlaps with the first plate body 1. In addition, the first sealing edge 11 (such as Figure 1 A filling groove 110 may be provided on the second sealing edge 21 (as shown) or the second sealing edge 21 (not shown) to facilitate the solder filling during the aforementioned welding process.
[0045] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 3As shown, the capillary layer 3 can be made of a metal woven mesh or powder sintering, and is sandwiched in the chamber C between the first and second plates 1 and 2, and the capillary layer 3 has a first capillary portion 30, a second capillary portion 31 and a third capillary portion 32. The first capillary portion 30 and the third capillary portion 32 are respectively located at two ends away from each other in the chamber C, and the second capillary portion 31 is connected between the first capillary portion 30 and the third capillary portion 32; specifically, the first capillary portion 30 is arranged in the heat receiving portion of the temperature equalizing plate, and the third capillary portion 32 is arranged in the condensing portion of the temperature equalizing plate, and the second capillary portion 31 extends from the first capillary portion 30 to the third capillary portion 32 to form an integral connection. The second capillary portion 31 is at least smaller in width than the first capillary portion 30 , or further smaller than the third capillary portion 32 , so as to form a notch portion 310 at any side of the second capillary portion 31 . The notch portion 310 is formed along the extension direction of the second capillary portion 31 .
[0046] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first plate body 1 is provided with a plurality of capillary support structures 100 and a plurality of plate support structures 101 on the first inner surface 10. Each capillary support structure 100 and the plate support structure 101 can be a columnar protrusion on the first inner surface 10, and the capillary support structure 100 at least corresponds to the first capillary portion 30 and the second capillary portion 31 of the capillary layer 3, and can also be further arranged on the corresponding third capillary portion 32, and the plate support structure 101 corresponds to the notch portion 310 of the capillary layer 3, so that the capillary support structure 100 can push the capillary layer 3 against the second inner surface 20 of the second plate body 2, and the plate support structure 101 can push against a plurality of docking support structures 200 provided on the second inner surface 20 of the second plate body 2, or can also directly push against the second inner surface 20.
[0047] Therefore, by means of the above-mentioned structural composition, the capillary structure supporting the temperature equalizing plate of the present application can be obtained.
[0048] Accordingly, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the temperature plate contacts the heat generating component (not shown) through the first capillary portion 30 as the heat receiving portion, the working fluid sealed inside it will be vaporized into steam and will move toward the location of the third capillary portion 32 through the space above the capillary layer 3 in the chamber C. When passing above the second capillary portion 31, since a notch portion 310 is formed on one side of the second capillary portion 31 to increase the space for accommodating steam, the heat conduction efficiency of the steam can be improved, so that the steam can reach the condensation portion more quickly for cooling. On the other hand, the formation of the notch portion 310 also helps to shorten the required path for the working fluid to undergo a vapor-liquid phase change, so as to facilitate heat transfer and mass transfer effects.
[0049] Furthermore, if Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in the second embodiment of the present application, a plurality of strip support structures 12 arranged at intervals can be further provided on the first inner surface 10 of the first plate body 1, and the plurality of strip support structures 12 also correspond to the notch portion 310 of the capillary layer 3, and partially surround the outer sides of the plurality of plate support structures 101, so as to form a flow channel for steam flow between any two adjacent strip support structures 12, and the steam can be guided from the outer sides of the plurality of plate support structures 101 through the flow channel and then guided back to the third capillary portion 32 of the capillary layer 3 for cooling, thereby facilitating the use of the enlarged steam space for steam transfer to achieve a uniform temperature effect.
[0050] In addition, if Figure 6 As shown, the capillary support structure 100 and the plate support structure 101 may also be formed by recessing the outer side of the first plate 1 toward the first inner side 10. Therefore, the capillary support structure 100 and the plate support structure 101 may not be limited to the embodiments of this application in terms of shape.
