Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of liquid cooling radiators, in particular to an integrated liquid cooling radiator for electrical components. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, the power density of electrical components continues to rise, and heat dissipation has become one of the core factors that limit their performance improvement and stable operation. Liquid cooling radiators, as an efficient heat dissipation method, are widely used in many fields. However, when installing liquid cooling radiators with the help of silicone grease and electrical components, there are a series of technical difficulties that need to be overcome.
[0003] Under existing technical conditions, when installing liquid cooling radiators with silicone grease, the torsion angle of the fastening screws often deviates. This non-standard screwing and fastening method will bring many adverse effects to the installation: First, uneven pressure. When the torsion angle of the fastening screw deviates, the pressure distribution of the screw on the radiator will be unbalanced. For example, on a liquid cooling radiator fixed with four-corner screws, if the tightening angle of one screw is not correct, the corresponding position of the liquid cooling radiator will be under excessive pressure, while the diagonal position will be under insufficient pressure; this uneven pressure will cause a difference in the thickness of the silicone grease layer between the radiator and the electrical components. In areas with excessive pressure, the silicone grease will be over-extended or even squeezed out of the fitting surface, resulting in partial silicone grease loss; in areas with insufficient pressure, the silicone grease layer is relatively thick, and the thermal resistance increases.
[0004] Second, damage to the threaded holes. Irregular fastening methods can also cause damage and deformation of the threaded holes of the radiator, which will hinder subsequent disassembly and maintenance work.
[0005] Third, it causes the radiator to deform. Since radiators are mostly made of metal, they are prone to dents or bends under excessive local pressure. Take aluminum radiators as an example. Because the material is relatively soft, if the angle deviation of the fastening screws causes excessive pressure in a corner, the area will dent inward. Once the radiator is deformed, the bonding surface with the electrical component cannot remain flat, further exacerbating the problem of poor bonding and seriously affecting the efficiency of heat conduction from the electrical component to the radiator.
[0006] In addition, the coolant of the radiator will also have many problems during long-term use. Ethylene glycol is usually added to the radiator as an antifreeze, which is easy to oxidize in the presence of oxygen, high temperature or large contact area with air. The generated organic acid and high molecular polymer will increase its viscosity. At the same time, additives containing polymerizable components will polymerize under the action of ultraviolet rays, high temperature or specific catalysts, causing the molecular chain to become longer and thicker. Impurities mixed in include external dust, lubricating oil, etc. entering when the radiator seal fails, and internal insulating oil or lubricant leaking and mixing due to electrical component failure. These high-viscosity impurities will significantly increase the viscosity of the coolant. When the coolant becomes viscous, the flow resistance increases, the circulation speed slows down, and the heat dissipation efficiency decreases sharply, which causes the temperature of electrical components to rise, affecting their performance and life, and even causing equipment failures, such as server CPU frequency reduction due to poor heat dissipation, and industrial automation equipment control circuit components malfunctioning due to overheating.
[0007] Furthermore, in a high-temperature environment, if the water replenishment system fails, the evaporation of water will increase the solute concentration, causing the coolant to thicken; local high-temperature areas will cause the solute to precipitate and aggregate due to pipe blockage or poor heat dissipation, which will not only increase the local viscosity and block the pipes, but also reduce the total amount of coolant. In a closed system, the evaporated gas forms a gas blockage that hinders the circulation, and in an open system, the liquid level will drop. If it is not replenished in time, the cooling system will eventually fail; however, the existing technology lacks effective detection components, and it is impossible to monitor the viscosity, liquid level and evaporation of the coolant in real time, making it difficult to prevent and repair in the early stages. It can only be handled after the problem occurs, which undoubtedly increases costs and downtime, and cannot guarantee the stable operation of electronic equipment.
[0008] Therefore, the present invention proposes an integrated liquid cooling radiator for electrical components to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0019] Preferably, the inner diameter of the end of the flow guide member close to the liquid inlet main pipe is larger than the inner diameter of the end of the member away from the liquid inlet main pipe.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an integrated liquid cooling radiator for electrical components, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The present invention adopts a design that a position-adjusting screw hole and the first and second threaded threads on the expansion plate and the adapter block can jointly construct a threaded hole. This is different from the traditional technology that usually uses fastening screws to directly install the liquid-cooled radiator. The problem that it is difficult to ensure the straightness and compliance of the installation in the above method is effectively avoided. The design of the present invention transforms it into an operation mode in which a screw needs to be threaded into two threaded holes at the same time, thereby significantly improving the straightness and compliance of the fastening screw when fixing the liquid-cooled radiator. Specifically, during the installation process, the screw needs to accurately pass through the position-adjusting screw hole and then adapt to the composite threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread and the second threaded thread. This process requires the operator to operate more carefully, effectively avoiding the problem of angle deviation caused by random screwing.
[0021] In addition, the threaded hole formed by the first threaded thread and the second threaded thread not only provides a second secure guarantee for installation, but also has an intelligent feedback reminder function; when the fastening screws are screwed in an irregular or uneven manner during the tightening process, the adapter block that was originally magnetically attracted to the protective shell by the magnetic strip will no longer fit tightly to the protective shell due to uneven force, resulting in a gap between the expansion piece and the adapter block. This obvious physical change can be detected by the operator in time, thereby providing intuitive feedback reminders to correct operational errors in a timely manner; improving the installation accuracy of the liquid cooling radiator and reducing the poor fit between the radiator and electrical components due to improper installation.
[0022] 2. The present invention uses an L-shaped guide rod to provide guidance for the hollow cavity column, which can effectively improve the movement stability of the liquid-cooled radiator fixedly connected to the hollow cavity column, and ensure that the liquid-cooled radiator on the hollow cavity column can always be in a parallel state with the fitting surface of the electrical component when moving toward the electrical component, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of local silicone grease loss and uneven thermal resistance caused by subsequent non-parallel fitting, which affects the heat dissipation. At the same time, the fitting spring body can ensure that the liquid-cooled radiator is orderly advanced to the fitting surface, and under the pressure of its own elastic force, it can effectively improve the close fit between the liquid-cooled radiator and the electrical component, reduce the problem of poor fitting, and improve the perfection of silicone grease fitting.
[0023] 3. The present invention uses a sliding bar that is laterally slidably connected to the channel of the liquid storage plate and a dividing bar that is vertically fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the liquid storage plate. The two work together to indirectly serve as ribs of the device components. During the operation of the device, the above design can effectively disperse the stress borne by the device, whether it is an external impact force or a pressure generated by internal operation, which can be evenly distributed in the entire structural system. The significant effects brought about by this design are multifaceted. First, the overall structural strength of the device is greatly enhanced, which effectively resists deformation or damage caused by external factors during vibration and collision, and significantly extends the service life of the device. Secondly, the higher structural strength enables the device to maintain stable performance under different working conditions, reducing the problems of component dislocation and poor contact caused by structural deformation, thereby improving the connection stability between the liquid cooling radiator and the electrical components, and ensuring the high efficiency and consistency of heat conduction.
[0024] 4. The present invention adopts a design in which the inner diameters at both ends of the guide piece are inconsistent. During the circulation of the coolant, this inner diameter difference forms a fluid dynamic structure. When the coolant enters the guide piece from the end with a larger inner diameter, due to the sudden contraction of the channel space, according to the principles of fluid mechanics, the flow rate of the coolant will be significantly improved. The above-mentioned acceleration effect can ensure that the coolant always maintains a high kinetic energy and fluidity when flowing through the guide piece, thereby more efficiently taking away heat, effectively preventing heat accumulation in local electrical components, and avoiding component performance degradation, shortened life, and even damage due to overheating.
[0025] Secondly, a higher flow rate can also reduce the possibility of coolant silting, precipitation or impurity accumulation in the pipeline; because the fast-flowing coolant can have a strong flushing effect on the inner wall of the pipeline, promptly remove dirt and impurities that may be attached to the pipe wall, and keep the pipeline clean and unobstructed, thereby further ensuring the long-term stable operation performance of the liquid cooling system, extending the service life of the coolant and the entire heat dissipation system, reducing the frequency of system maintenance and coolant replacement, and improving the use efficiency and economic benefits of the equipment.
[0026] 5. The present invention adopts a design of transparent materials for the liquid inlet main pipe and the guide member, and cleverly sets the central axis of the guide member as a warning line for coolant evaporation and water loss. At the same time, a recessed groove is opened at the central axis to assist in precise observation. During the operation of the liquid-cooled radiator, when the coolant gradually decreases due to evaporation or potential leakage, the operator can quickly and accurately judge the change of the coolant level by directly observing the relative position relationship with the central axis warning line. The presence of the recessed groove further enhances the convenience and accuracy of such observation. It can clearly present the intersection of the liquid level and the warning line even when light is refracted, avoiding misjudgment due to visual errors.
[0027] The above design can effectively avoid the deterioration of heat dissipation effect caused by the decrease in coolant level, and avoid the situation where once the liquid level is lower than the safe range, the contact area between the coolant and the heat dissipation components is reduced, the heat transfer efficiency is greatly reduced, and the temperature of the electrical components rises rapidly; by timely and accurately monitoring the liquid level and taking measures before the liquid level drops to affect heat dissipation, such as replenishing coolant, the heat dissipation system can always be maintained in the best working state, ensuring that the electrical components operate in a stable temperature environment, thereby improving the working performance and service life of the electrical components, reducing the failure downtime caused by overheating, and ensuring the overall stable operation of the equipment.
[0028] 6. The present invention uses the relationship of rotational connection between the first auxiliary pipe, the second auxiliary pipe and the liquid storage plate; in the operation mechanism of the radiator, this rotational connection method constructs a flexible and stable architecture. When the radiator is in working state, complex mechanical interactions and relative movements will occur between the components, and the rotational connection between the first auxiliary pipe, the second auxiliary pipe and the liquid storage plate can cleverly adapt to these changes; for example, in the case of vibration, thermal expansion and contraction, and internal fluid dynamic impact encountered during the operation of the equipment, the rotational connection allows the relevant components to rotate freely within a certain range, effectively absorbing and dispersing these external and internal stresses; effectively avoiding the risk of pipeline twisting, effectively preventing the pipeline from twisting easily, and thus The flow of the coolant inside is blocked or even completely cut off; the rotating connection design of the present invention ensures that the pipeline, such as the liquid inlet pipe, can operate in a relatively stable state, and the coolant is continuously and smoothly supplied, thereby ensuring the uninterrupted heat dissipation process, maintaining a stable heat dissipation environment for the electrical components, avoiding overheating and damage of the components caused by interruption of the coolant supply, extending the service life of the electrical components, reducing the equipment downtime caused by heat dissipation failures, and improving the operating reliability and stability of the equipment; at the same time, it prevents the situation in which the local area of the conveying pipeline is subjected to excessive pressure due to excessive local pressure due to torsion, posing a threat to the structural integrity of the pipeline, and reduces the risk of pipeline rupture and leakage.

[0032] The present invention is further described in detail below based on the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0033] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 As shown: In order to solve the problems mentioned in the technical solution, the embodiment of the present application provides an integrated liquid cooling radiator for electrical components, including: a liquid cooling radiator 1, a liquid inlet auxiliary pipe 2, and a liquid outlet auxiliary pipe 3, wherein the liquid inlet auxiliary pipe 2 and the liquid outlet auxiliary pipe 3 are fixedly connected to the liquid cooling radiator 1, and also includes: an interference factor elimination component 4 and a replacement warning component 5, wherein the replacement warning component 5 is located on one side of the interference factor elimination component 4; The interference factor elimination component 4 is used to ensure the correctness of the installation position, installation deviation and fit of the liquid cooling radiator 1 during installation; The interference factor elimination component 4 includes a protective shell 401 sleeved on the liquid-cooled radiator 1, and L-shaped guide rods 402 are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the inner cavity of the protective shell 401. A hollow cavity column 403 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the liquid-cooled radiator 1. The protective shell 401 is slidably inserted into the hollow cavity column 403. The end of the hollow cavity column 403 away from the protective shell 401 is fixedly connected to a supporting plate 404, and a fitting spring body 405 is fixedly connected to the surface of the supporting plate 404. The end of the fitting spring body 405 away from the supporting plate 404 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity wall of the protective shell 401. A liquid storage plate 406 is provided on one side of the protective shell 401, and a groove is provided on the liquid storage plate 406. The protective shell 401 is fixedly connected with sliding bars 407 at equal intervals on one side close to the liquid storage plate 406, and the sliding bars 407 are slidably connected to the liquid storage plate 406 through the groove of the liquid storage plate 406. The liquid storage plate 406 is provided with position adjustment screw holes 408 at equal intervals, and the position adjustment screw holes 408 are internally threadedly connected with fastening screws 409. The protective shell 401 is fixedly connected with external expansion pieces 410 at the four corners, and the external expansion pieces 410 are provided with a first threaded opening 411. An adapter block 412 is slidably connected in the groove of the liquid storage plate 406, and a magnetic strip 413 is embedded and fixed in the adapter block 412 close to one side of the protective shell 401, and a second threaded opening 414 is provided on the adapter block 412.
[0034] Wherein: the interference factor elimination component 4 is used to ensure the correctness of the installation position, installation deviation and fit of the liquid cooling radiator 1 during installation.
[0035] The L-shaped guide rod 402 is slidably adapted to the inner cavity of the hollow cavity column 403 .
[0036] The fitting spring body 405 can indirectly push the liquid-cooled radiator 1 to approach the desired fitting surface, which can effectively avoid the problem that the liquid-cooled radiator 1 cannot be tightly fitted on the electronic components due to relying solely on silicone grease, thereby generating gaps and causing heat accumulation; in addition, due to the presence of the fitting spring body 405, during the use of the equipment, the looseness caused by vibration can be further reduced, effectively ensuring the stability and safety of the equipment.
[0037] The fastening screw 409 is adapted to fit into the position adjustment screw hole 408 .
[0038] The first thread opening 411 and the second thread opening 414 can form a threaded hole in combination, and the threaded hole is adapted to the fastening screw 409 .
[0039] When the adapter block 412 is magnetically attracted to the protective shell 401 through the magnetic strip 413, the threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414 and the position adjustment screw hole 408 can ensure that the fastening screw 409 is fixed in position to the protective shell 401. During the screwing of the fastening screw 409, if there is a straightness problem in the screwing direction, the threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414 will separate, and the magnetic strip 413 on the adapter block 412 will also move away from the protective shell 401, which means that the fastening angle of the fastening screw 409 is deviated.
[0040] For further examples, please refer to Figure 1 , Figures 7 to 11 As shown: Replace the warning component 5 to warn of the oxidation reaction of the coolant, the increase in viscosity caused by the polymerization reaction, the mixing of impurities, and the evaporation and water loss; The replacement warning component 5 includes a dividing strip 501 fixedly connected to the liquid storage plate 406, a first auxiliary tube 502 is rotatably connected to the liquid storage plate 406, an auxiliary rod 503 is threadedly connected to the first auxiliary tube 502, a second auxiliary tube 504 is rotatably connected to the liquid storage plate 406 and located on one side of the first auxiliary tube 502, a liquid inlet main tube 505 is threadedly connected to the second auxiliary tube 504, a flow guide 506 is fixedly connected to the second auxiliary tube 504, a sliding groove 507 is provided at the front end of the flow guide 506, and the sliding groove 507 is provided inside the sliding groove 507. A first electric contact ring 508 is fixedly connected, a sliding column 510 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 507, a reset spring body 509 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the sliding column 510, and one end of the reset spring body 509 away from the inner cavity of the sliding column 510 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity wall of the sliding groove 507, one end of the sliding column 510 close to the first electric contact ring 508 is fixedly connected to the second electric contact ring 511, and one end of the sliding column 510 away from the second electric contact ring 511 is fixedly connected to a detection sheet 512, and a through hole 513 is opened on the detection sheet 512.
[0041] The replacement warning component 5 is used to warn of the oxidation reaction of the coolant, the increase in viscosity caused by the polymerization reaction, the mixing of impurities, and the evaporation and water loss.
[0042] The dividing strip 501 divides the inner cavity of the liquid storage plate 406 into two solution transfer cavities, which correspond to the liquid inlet and liquid outlet of the first auxiliary tube 502 and the second auxiliary tube 504 respectively.
[0043] The auxiliary rod 503 can be threadedly connected to the first auxiliary pipe 502 and the second auxiliary pipe 504 and used as an external rod. For example, in an inconvenient installation location such as an electrical cabinet, the auxiliary rod 503 can be held by hand to indirectly perform auxiliary installation work of the liquid-cooled radiator 1 in the dividing strip 501; after the installation is completed, it needs to be removed and the first auxiliary pipe 502 and the second auxiliary pipe 504 should be replaced with a liquid outlet main pipe corresponding to the liquid inlet main pipe 505.
[0044] The inner diameter of one end of the flow guide 506 close to the liquid inlet main pipe 505 is larger than the inner diameter of the end of the flow guide 506 far from the liquid inlet main pipe 505 .
[0045] The liquid inlet main pipe 505 and the guide member 506 are made of transparent materials, such as transparent plastic and transparent glass; the central axis of the guide member 506 can be used as an early warning line for evaporation and water loss of the coolant. In this design, a concave groove is opened at the central axis of the guide member 506 for auxiliary observation, which can be referred to in the attached Fig.10 , Attachment Fig.11 This can prevent the coolant from evaporating or leaking during use, causing the liquid level to drop, affecting the heat dissipation effect, causing the delivery pump to run idle, and damaging the pump body.
[0046] The sliding post 510 is slidably adapted to the sliding groove 507 .
[0047] There is an electrical connection between the first electric contact ring 508 and the second electric contact ring 511 and the main controller of the device. When the first electric contact ring 508 and the second electric contact ring 511 are no longer in contact, it means that the coolant containing ethylene glycol additive as an antifreeze has undergone an oxidation reaction, or the polymerizable components therein have undergone a polymerization reaction under the action of high temperature, resulting in an increase in viscosity. At this time, the main controller will issue a warning indication through an external warning light to remind the staff to replace the coolant.
[0048] Everything in the above example works like this: When in use, the auxiliary rod 503 is screwed onto the first auxiliary tube 502 and the second auxiliary tube 504 to be used as an external rod. For example, in an inconvenient installation location such as an electrical cabinet, the auxiliary rod 503 can be held by hand to indirectly assist in the installation of the liquid-cooled radiator 1 in the dividing strip 501; it needs to be removed after the installation is completed.
[0049] In the initial state: The hungry magnetic strip 413 on the adapter block 412 is magnetically attracted to the protective shell 401 , and at this time, the first threaded opening 411 and the second threaded opening 414 form a complete threaded hole, and the first electric contact ring 508 and the second electric contact ring 511 are in contact.
[0050] The following is the working process of the interference factor elimination component 4: When in use, the operator first moves the liquid-cooled radiator 1 in the protective shell 401 toward the position of the electrical component by holding the auxiliary rod 503, and slides the protective shell 401 in the groove opened on the liquid storage plate 406 with the assistance of the sliding bar 407, so as to adjust the position of the liquid-cooled radiator 1 and the electrical component in the protective shell 401, and finally make the liquid-cooled radiator 1 contact with the electrical component. At this time, there is silicone grease between the two. Further, the fastening screw 409 is inserted into the corresponding position adjustment screw hole 408 and screwed. During the screwing process, the fastening screw 409 will gradually be screwed out of the position adjustment screw hole 408 and gradually approach the threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread 411 and the second threaded thread 414. At this time, there are two situations according to the operator's screwing action of the fastening screw 409.
[0051] Firstly, the fastening screw 409 screwed out of the position adjustment screw hole 408 has good straightness and is not skewed; at this time, the fastening screw 409 that is continued to be screwed will enter the threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414, and move forward further, and finally screw out of the threaded hole, and finally screw into the fixed threaded hole where the electrical component is located, thereby completing the fixing work.
[0052] Second, the fastening screw 409 that is screwed out of the position adjustment screw hole 408 is not straight and is screwed crookedly. At this time, although the fastening screw 409 that continues to be screwed will enter the threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414, due to the screwing crookedly, during the further forward screwing movement, the fastening screw 409 will push against the adapter block 412 of the threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414. At this time, the threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414 will be separated, and the magnetic strip 413 on the adapter block 412 will also move away from the protective shell 401, indicating that the fastening angle of the fastening screw 409 deviates and needs to be readjusted.
[0053] Furthermore, by adopting the position adjustment screw hole 408 and the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414 on the external expansion piece 410 and the adapter block 412, a threaded hole design can be jointly constructed. Different from the conventional technology, the liquid-cooled radiator 1 is usually installed directly using the fastening screw 409, which effectively avoids the problem that it is difficult to ensure the straightness and compliance of the installation in the above method. The design of the present invention converts it into an operation mode in which a screw needs to be threaded into two threaded holes at the same time, thereby significantly improving the straightness and compliance of the fastening screw 409 when fixing the liquid-cooled radiator 1; specifically, during the installation process, the screw needs to accurately pass through the position adjustment screw hole 408, and then adapt to the composite threaded hole composed of the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414. This process requires the operator to operate more carefully, effectively avoiding the angle deviation problem caused by arbitrary screwing.
[0054] In addition, the threaded hole formed by the first threaded thread opening 411 and the second threaded thread opening 414 not only provides a second secure guarantee for installation, but also has an intelligent feedback reminder function; when the fastening screw 409 is screwed in an irregular or uneven manner during the tightening process, the adapter block 412 that was originally magnetically attracted to the protective shell 401 by the magnetic strip 413 will no longer fit tightly to the protective shell 401 due to uneven force, thereby causing a gap between the external expansion sheet 410 and the adapter block 412. This obvious physical change can be detected by the operator in a timely manner, thereby providing him with intuitive feedback reminders so that he can correct operational errors in a timely manner; improving the installation accuracy of the liquid cooling radiator and reducing the poor fit between the radiator and electrical components caused by improper installation.
[0055] Furthermore, the design of providing guidance for the hollow cavity column 403 through the L-shaped guide rod 402 can effectively improve the movement stability of the liquid-cooled radiator 1 fixedly connected to the hollow cavity column 403, and ensure that the liquid-cooled radiator 1 on the hollow cavity column 403 can always be in a parallel state with the bonding surface of the electrical component when moving toward the electrical component, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of local silicone grease loss and uneven thermal resistance caused by subsequent non-parallel bonding, which affects the heat dissipation; at the same time, the bonding spring body 405 can ensure that the liquid-cooled radiator 1 is orderly advanced to the bonding surface, and under the pressure of its own elastic force, it can effectively improve the close fit between the liquid-cooled radiator 1 and the electrical component, reduce the problem of poor fitting, and improve the perfection of the silicone grease bonding.
[0056] Furthermore, the sliding bar 407 connected to the groove of the liquid storage plate 406 by transverse sliding and the dividing bar 501 fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the liquid storage plate 406 by vertical rotation can work together to indirectly serve as the ribs of the device components; during the operation of the device, the above design can effectively disperse the stress borne by the device, whether it is the impact force from the outside or the pressure generated by the internal operation, it can be evenly distributed in the entire structural system; the remarkable effects brought about by this design are multifaceted. First, the overall structural strength of the device has been greatly enhanced, effectively resisting deformation or damage caused by external factors during vibration and collision, and significantly extending the service life of the device; secondly, the higher structural strength enables the device to maintain stable performance under different working conditions, reducing the problems of component dislocation and poor contact caused by structural deformation, thereby improving the connection stability between the liquid cooling radiator and the electrical components, and ensuring the high efficiency and consistency of heat conduction.
[0057] Furthermore, the design of the interference factor elimination component 4 has many benefits for the installation and subsequent use of the liquid-cooled radiator 1; first, the double threaded hole design can ensure the balance of the fastening screw 409 when screwing, effectively avoiding the torsion angle deviation of the fastening screw 409 caused by human operation, and then making the indirect pressure of the fastening screw 409 on the liquid-cooled radiator 1 evenly distributed on the entire installation plane, so that the thickness of the silicone grease layer between the liquid-cooled radiator 1 and the electrical component is always consistent, eliminating the problem of local silicone grease being excessively squeezed out of the fitting surface and the problem of excessive thermal resistance of the silicone grease layer due to insufficient pressure, effectively ensuring the efficient conduction of heat from the electrical component to the liquid-cooled radiator 1, significantly improving the heat dissipation efficiency, extending the service life of the electrical component, and reducing the risk of equipment failure caused by poor heat dissipation.
[0058] Secondly, the design of the adapter block 412 fitting onto the protective shell 401 through the magnetic strip 413 in the component can effectively standardize the fastening method. The above-mentioned magnetic limiting mechanism can prevent the threaded hole from being damaged and deformed due to angle deviation or excessive force when the fastening screw 409 is screwed, thereby ensuring that the threaded hole maintains good integrity and accuracy during multiple installation and disassembly processes, greatly facilitating subsequent maintenance, upgrading and replacement operations, reducing the material cost and time cost generated by replacement of damaged threaded holes, and improving the maintainability and overall service life of the equipment.
[0059] Thirdly, the component can accurately control the tightening angle of the fastening screw 409 through the cooperation between the adapter block 412 magnetically attracted on the protective shell 401 and the external expansion piece 410 on the protective shell 401. Even if the protective shell 401 on the liquid-cooled radiator 1 is made of aluminum or a relatively soft metal material, it will not be dented or bent due to excessive local pressure, ensuring that the fitting surface between the liquid-cooled radiator 1 and the electrical components connected thereto is always flat and maintains a good fitting state, avoiding the problem of poor fitting aggravated by deformation of components, ensuring the stability and efficiency of heat conduction, and helping the equipment to maintain stable performance during long-term operation, thereby improving the reliability and safety of equipment operation.
[0060] Please refer to the above working process Figures 1 to 7 .
[0061] Furthermore, after the liquid cooling radiator 1 is fixed, the auxiliary rod 503 can be removed from the first auxiliary pipe 502 and the second auxiliary pipe 504, the liquid inlet main pipe 505 can be screwed into the second auxiliary pipe 504, and the pipe identical to the liquid inlet main pipe 505 can be screwed into the first auxiliary pipe 502, and the cooling liquid can be circulated by an external pump. The following is the working process of replacing the warning component 5: Furthermore, as the coolant is used, the coolant begins to increase in viscosity due to oxidation and polymerization reactions. At this time, the coolant originally flowing from the guide member 506 will be blocked by the through hole 513 on the detection piece 512. That is, the coolant flowing through the through hole 513 will not be as smooth as at the beginning. At this time, in this situation, the flowing coolant will push the detection piece 512 to move, and the sliding column 510 in the sliding groove 507 will move under the drive of the detection piece 512. The reset spring body 509 is stretched, and the first electric contact ring 508 and the second electric contact ring 511 that were originally in contact are no longer in contact. As it is known, there is an electrical connection between the first electric contact ring 508 and the second electric contact ring 511 and the device master controller. When the first electric contact ring 508 and the second electric contact ring 511 are no longer in contact, the master controller will issue a warning indication through an external warning light to remind the staff to replace the coolant; that is, at this time, the corresponding personnel will know the coolant status at this time through the warning light.
[0062] Furthermore, by adopting a design in which the inner diameters at both ends of the guide member 506 are inconsistent, this inner diameter difference forms a fluid dynamic structure during the circulation of the coolant; when the coolant enters the guide member 506 from the end with a larger inner diameter, due to the sudden contraction of the channel space, according to the principles of fluid mechanics, the flow rate of the coolant will be significantly increased. The above-mentioned acceleration effect can ensure that the coolant always maintains a high kinetic energy and fluidity when flowing through the guide member 506, thereby more efficiently taking away heat, effectively preventing heat accumulation in local electrical components, and avoiding component performance degradation, shortened life, or even damage due to overheating.
[0063] Secondly, a higher flow rate can also reduce the possibility of coolant silting, precipitation or impurity accumulation in the pipeline; because the fast-flowing coolant can have a strong flushing effect on the inner wall of the pipeline, promptly remove dirt and impurities that may be attached to the pipe wall, and keep the pipeline clean and unobstructed, thereby further ensuring the long-term stable operation performance of the liquid cooling system, extending the service life of the coolant and the entire heat dissipation system, reducing the frequency of system maintenance and coolant replacement, and improving the use efficiency and economic benefits of the equipment.
[0064] Furthermore, by adopting a design of transparent materials for the liquid inlet main pipe 505 and the guide member 506, and cleverly setting the central axis of the guide member 506 as a warning line for coolant evaporation and water loss, and at the same time opening a recessed groove at the central axis to assist in precise observation, during the operation of the liquid-cooled radiator, when the coolant gradually decreases due to evaporation or potential leakage, the operator can quickly and accurately judge the change of the coolant level by directly observing the relative position relationship with the central axis warning line. The presence of the recessed groove further enhances the convenience and accuracy of such observation. It can clearly present the intersection of the liquid level and the warning line even when light is refracted, thereby avoiding misjudgment due to visual errors.
[0065] The above design can effectively avoid the deterioration of heat dissipation effect caused by the decrease in coolant level, and avoid the situation where once the liquid level is lower than the safe range, the contact area between the coolant and the heat dissipation components is reduced, the heat transfer efficiency is greatly reduced, and the temperature of the electrical components rises rapidly; by timely and accurately monitoring the liquid level and taking measures before the liquid level drops to affect heat dissipation, such as replenishing coolant, the heat dissipation system can always be maintained in the best working state, ensuring that the electrical components operate in a stable temperature environment, thereby improving the working performance and service life of the electrical components, reducing the failure downtime caused by overheating, and ensuring the overall stable operation of the equipment.
[0066] Furthermore, through the rotational connection between the first auxiliary pipe 502, the second auxiliary pipe 504 and the liquid storage plate 406; in the operation mechanism of the radiator, this rotational connection method constructs a flexible and stable architecture. When the radiator is in operation, complex mechanical interactions and relative movements will occur between the components, and the rotational connection between the first auxiliary pipe 502, the second auxiliary pipe 504 and the liquid storage plate 406 can cleverly adapt to these changes; for example, in the case of vibration, thermal expansion and contraction, and internal fluid dynamic impact encountered during the operation of the equipment, the rotational connection allows the relevant components to rotate freely within a certain range, effectively absorbing and dispersing these external and internal stresses; effectively avoiding the risk of pipeline twisting, and effectively avoiding pipeline extremes. The rotating connection design of the present invention ensures that the pipeline, such as the liquid inlet main pipe 505, can operate in a relatively stable state, and the coolant can be continuously and smoothly supplied, thereby ensuring the uninterrupted heat dissipation process, maintaining a stable heat dissipation environment for the electrical components, avoiding overheating and damage of the components caused by interruption of the coolant supply, extending the service life of the electrical components, reducing the equipment downtime caused by heat dissipation failures, and improving the operating reliability and stability of the equipment; at the same time, it prevents the local area of the conveying pipeline from being subjected to excessive pressure due to excessive local pressure due to torsion, posing a threat to the structural integrity of the pipeline, and reduces the risk of pipeline rupture and leakage.
[0067] Furthermore, by replacing the design of the early warning component 5, it is possible to monitor in real time a number of key parameters of the coolant, such as viscosity, liquid level, temperature, and whether there is any impurity mixing; once the coolant begins to show an upward trend in viscosity due to oxidation or polymerization reactions, or impurities invade due to sealing problems, or water evaporation and solute precipitation problems are caused by high temperature environments, the component can quickly feedback this change through the movement of the detection piece 512, under the interaction of the first electric contact ring 508 and the second electric contact ring 511, and send out a fault warning signal through the early warning light, which enables equipment maintenance personnel to know the potential heat dissipation risks in advance and take corresponding maintenance measures in a timely manner, such as preparing coolant replacement or repairing the radiator seal in advance, effectively avoiding sudden equipment failures caused by coolant problems, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of electronic equipment, and reducing the risk of production losses or data loss due to unexpected downtime.
[0068] At the same time, since the component can continuously monitor the changes in the state of the coolant, it can provide and record relevant data for subsequent optimized maintenance. Through in-depth analysis of these data, a more scientific and reasonable maintenance plan can be formulated for the electronic equipment. For example, based on the rate of change of the coolant viscosity, it is possible to accurately estimate the time when it reaches the critical value that requires replacement, so as to arrange coolant replacement at the appropriate time to avoid waste of resources or risk of equipment damage caused by replacement too early or too late. This data-driven maintenance plan optimization can not only reduce the maintenance cost of the equipment, but also improve the overall availability of the equipment and extend the service life of the equipment. It is especially suitable for the maintenance management of many electronic equipment in large-scale data centers or industrial production lines, and can improve the work efficiency and management level of the maintenance team.
