[0020] Reference below Figure 1 , Figure 1 The structure diagram of the intelligent monitoring system for heat sinks provided by one embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, an intelligent monitoring system 100 for a heat sink includes: Temperature sensor 101, data processing unit 102, alarm device 103 and intelligent control unit 104; The temperature sensor is installed on the heat sink and is used to monitor the temperature of the heat sink in real time.

At this time, the temperature of the heat sink is controlled The heat sink can be kept within a safe temperature range; in, Indicated in The real-time temperature of the heat sink at the moment, in degrees Celsius (℃); Indicates the controlled temperature of the heat sink at time tn, in degrees Celsius (℃); It is the time sequence number, indicating the time series.
[0021] It should be noted that the system includes a temperature sensor, a data processing unit, an alarm device and an intelligent control unit, which work together to achieve intelligent monitoring of the heat sink. Here, the temperature sensor refers to a device that can detect and record the temperature change on the surface of the heat sink, while the data processing unit is responsible for receiving the data transmitted by the sensor and analyzing and processing it.
[0022] Specifically, the temperature sensor is installed on the heat sink to monitor the temperature of the heat sink in real time. The data processing unit receives the data from the sensor and performs real-time analysis, including obtaining the real-time temperature of the heat sink at a specific moment and calculating the control temperature under the set threshold. The intelligent control unit controls the cooling system of the heat sink based on these analysis results, such as deciding whether to start or shut down the cooling system by comparing the real-time temperature with the control temperature.
[0023] Preferably, the temperature sensor may be a high-precision thermocouple, which is known for its accuracy and stability and is suitable for applications requiring precise temperature control. The operation steps of the intelligent control unit can be further refined. For example, when the real-time temperature is lower than the control temperature, the system will not only shut down the cooling system, but may also take additional measures to ensure that the heat sink is not overcooled, thereby maintaining the optimal operating temperature range.
[0024] Furthermore, the system can also set up multiple temperature monitoring points to monitor the temperature of different areas of the heat sink, ensuring full coverage and providing more accurate temperature control.
[0025] In some embodiments, the intelligent control unit includes a temperature monitoring module, a threshold setting module, an alarm parameter input module, an intelligent control module, and a data recording module; The temperature monitoring module is used to display the temperature of the heat sink in real time; the threshold setting module is used to set the temperature threshold of the heat sink; the alarm parameter input module is used to input the expected alarm parameter requirements; the intelligent control module is used to automatically calculate the control parameters and control the cooling system of the heat sink; the data recording module is used to record the monitoring data in real time.
[0026] It should be noted that the intelligent control unit is the core part of the system, which includes the temperature monitoring module, threshold setting module, alarm parameter input module, intelligent control module and data recording module. These modules work together to achieve comprehensive monitoring and management of the heat sink temperature. Here, the temperature monitoring module refers to the component used to display the heat sink temperature in real time, while the threshold setting module allows users to set the upper and lower limits of the temperature as needed.
[0027] Specifically, the temperature monitoring module can display the temperature of the heat sink in real time, providing users with instant temperature feedback. The threshold setting module allows users to set a safe temperature range based on the material properties of the heat sink and the working environment. The alarm parameter input module allows users to input the expected alarm parameter requirements, such as the alarm condition when the temperature exceeds the set threshold. The intelligent control module automatically calculates the control parameters based on these parameters and controls the cooling system of the heat sink, while the data recording module is responsible for real-time recording of monitoring data for subsequent analysis and troubleshooting.
[0028] Preferably, the various modules of the intelligent control unit can further refine their functions. For example, the temperature monitoring module can use high-resolution display technology to provide more accurate temperature readings. The threshold setting module can provide a user-friendly interface, allowing users to easily set and adjust temperature thresholds. The alarm parameter input module can support the setting of multiple alarm conditions, such as rapid temperature rise or continuous exceeding of thresholds. The intelligent control module can use advanced algorithms to optimize the response time and efficiency of the cooling system. The data logging module can support long-term storage and export of data to facilitate historical data analysis and trend prediction. In addition, the intelligent control unit can also integrate wireless communication functions to achieve remote monitoring and control.
[0029] In some embodiments, the temperature sensor includes a plurality of temperature monitoring points; The temperature monitoring points are evenly distributed on the heat sink, and the temperature monitoring points are used to monitor the temperature of each point of the heat sink in real time and feed back to the data processing unit.
[0030] It should be noted that this system realizes real-time monitoring of the temperature of each point on the heat sink by setting multiple temperature monitoring points. The temperature monitoring points here refer to temperature sensors installed at different positions on the heat sink, which are used to collect temperature data of different areas of the heat sink. These monitoring points are set to ensure that there are no blind spots for temperature monitoring on the heat sink, thereby improving the monitoring accuracy of the entire system.
[0031] Specifically, the temperature monitoring points are evenly distributed on the heat sink, which means that they are arranged in various key areas of the heat sink to ensure that the temperature distribution of the heat sink can be fully monitored. These monitoring points can be set at fixed intervals, such as setting a monitoring point every certain distance (such as 10 cm), or setting more monitoring points in hot spots according to the heat distribution characteristics of the heat sink. Each monitoring point is connected to the data processing unit to transmit the temperature data it monitors in real time.
[0032] Preferably, the arrangement of temperature monitoring points can be further optimized to improve monitoring efficiency. For example, the monitoring points can be arranged in a grid-like layout to achieve more intensive temperature data collection. In addition, the monitoring points can be equipped with wireless transmission functions so that temperature monitoring can be performed even in areas where wiring is difficult. In some high-temperature or difficult-to-access areas, high-temperature resistant sensor materials can be selected to ensure normal operation in extreme environments. The collected data can also be analyzed by software algorithms to identify hot spots on the heat sink and adjust the cooling strategy accordingly.
[0033] In some embodiments, the temperature sensor is a high-precision thermocouple.
[0034] It should be noted that the system uses high-precision thermocouples as temperature sensors to improve the accuracy of temperature monitoring. High-precision thermocouples are sensors that can measure temperature. They detect temperature changes through the thermoelectric effect and are widely used in industry and scientific research due to their high accuracy and stability. This sensor can provide accurate temperature readings, which is essential for heat sink monitoring systems that require precise temperature control.
[0035] Specifically, high-precision thermocouples can be selected based on their measurement accuracy, response time, temperature range, etc. For example, a K-type thermocouple with a measurement range of -200°C to 1600°C can be selected. This type of thermocouple is favored for its wide range of applications and good cost performance.
[0036] Furthermore, when setting parameters, the sensitivity of the thermocouple can be adjusted according to the operating temperature range of the heat sink to ensure that it can provide the most accurate readings within this temperature range. In addition, the installation location of the thermocouple is also important. The area on the heat sink where the temperature changes most significantly should be selected for installation to obtain the most representative temperature data.
[0037] Preferably, in addition to K-type thermocouples, other types of high-precision thermocouples, such as J-type, T-type or N-type, can also be considered. These types of thermocouples are suitable for different temperature ranges and environmental conditions. For example, if the operating temperature of the heat sink is very high, you may need to choose an N-type thermocouple because its measurement range can be up to 2300°C.
[0038] Furthermore, to further improve the accuracy of the measurement, a temperature compensation circuit can be added to the output of the thermocouple to eliminate the influence of ambient temperature changes on the measurement results. When installing the thermocouple, you can also consider using special fixtures or brackets to ensure its stability and durability on the heat sink. Through these refined operating steps and alternatives, the reliability and measurement accuracy of the system can be further improved.
[0039] In some embodiments, the intelligent control unit includes a cooling fan and temperature control electronic components; The cooling fan is installed near the heat sink and is used to cool the heat sink; the temperature control electronic component is used to control the start and stop of the cooling fan.
[0040] It should be noted that the intelligent control unit further includes a cooling fan and temperature control electronic components, which work together to achieve effective cooling of the heat sink. Here, the cooling fan refers to a device used to enhance the heat dissipation effect, which accelerates the heat dissipation by generating airflow; while the temperature control electronic components refer to electronic components used to accurately control the operating status of the fan to ensure that the heat dissipation effect matches the system requirements.
[0041] Specifically, the cooling fan can be installed near the heat sink, and its design and size should be adapted to the heat dissipation requirements of the heat sink. The speed of the fan can be adjusted according to the temperature of the heat sink to achieve the best cooling effect. The temperature control electronic components include sensors and controllers for monitoring and controlling the fan's current, voltage and other parameters. For example, a temperature threshold can be set. When the temperature of the heat sink exceeds this threshold, the electronic components will automatically increase the fan speed to improve cooling efficiency.
[0042] Preferably, the cooling fan can be designed with multiple fan blades to improve air flow efficiency. The shape and number of fan blades can be optimized according to aerodynamic principles to achieve better heat dissipation. The temperature control electronic components can include current measurement devices, voltage measurement devices and voltage control components, which can accurately monitor and adjust the working status of the fan to ensure that the fan can operate stably under different temperature conditions.
[0043] Furthermore, you can also consider using PWM (pulse width modulation) technology to control the fan speed to achieve more precise temperature control. Through these refined operating steps and alternatives, the cooling efficiency and stability of the system can be further improved.
[0044] In some embodiments, the cooling fan includes a plurality of fan blades; The temperature control electronic components include a current measuring device, a voltage measuring device and a voltage control device.
[0045] It should be noted that the cooling fan in this embodiment is designed to include multiple fan blades, which helps to improve the air flow efficiency of the fan. Multiple fan blades refer to multiple rotating parts in the fan for generating airflow, which work together to enhance the heat dissipation effect. This design can disperse the load of the fan, reduce the stress of a single blade, and increase the total surface area of the fan, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0046] Specifically, the multiple fan blades of the cooling fan can be designed according to the specific heat dissipation requirements and space limitations of the heat sink. The number of fan blades can be determined according to the size of the fan and the required air volume. Generally, the more blades there are, the higher the air pressure of the fan, but the corresponding noise may also increase.
[0047] Furthermore, the current measuring device, voltage measuring device and voltage control device in the temperature control electronic components can accurately control the operating state of the fan. For example, the current measuring device can monitor the current consumption of the fan, the voltage measuring device can monitor the supply voltage of the fan, and the voltage control device can adjust the speed of the fan according to these measured values.
[0048] Preferably, the fan blades of the cooling fan can be made of lightweight and high-strength materials, such as aluminum alloy or engineering plastics, to ensure the stability and durability of the fan when rotating at high speed. The temperature control electronic components can be integrated into a microcontroller, which can dynamically adjust the operating state of the fan according to a preset temperature control algorithm.
[0049] Furthermore, it is also possible to consider using sensors to monitor the ambient temperature and the fan's inlet temperature in order to more accurately control the fan's speed. Through these detailed operation steps and alternatives, the system's cooling efficiency and response speed can be further improved.
[0050] In some embodiments, a measuring point is provided on the high-precision thermocouple, and the distance between the measuring point and the surface of the heat sink is more than 10 mm; The measuring point is located in a key hot zone of the heat sink and is 10 mm to 20 mm away from the edge of the heat sink.
[0051] It should be noted that high-precision thermocouples have measurement points, which are the parts where the thermocouple contacts the heat sink and are used to accurately measure the temperature of the heat sink. The measurement point refers to the sensitive part of the thermocouple sensor, which is in direct contact with the object being measured in order to capture temperature changes. The location of these measurement points is critical to ensure the accuracy of the temperature reading.
[0052] Specifically, the distance between the measurement point and the heat sink surface is set to more than 10mm, which is to ensure that the thermocouple will not be directly affected by the temperature fluctuations on the heat sink surface, thereby providing more stable measurement results. At the same time, the measurement points are located in the key hot zone of the heat sink, which means that they are placed in the area on the heat sink where the temperature changes most significantly to obtain the most representative temperature data.
[0053] Furthermore, the distance between the measuring point and the edge of the heat sink is controlled to be between 10 mm and 20 mm. This range can ensure that the measuring point will not be affected by the edge effect while covering the entire surface of the heat sink.
[0054] Preferably, the arrangement of the measurement points can be further optimized to accommodate heat sinks of different shapes and sizes. For example, for large heat sinks, multiple measurement points can be used to achieve more comprehensive coverage. For heat sinks with irregular shapes, flexible thermocouples can be used to better fit the heat sink surface. In addition, temperature compensation technology can also be considered to eliminate the impact of ambient temperature changes on the measurement results.
[0055] In some embodiments, the high-precision thermocouple jacket is provided with a heat-resistant protective jacket.
[0056] It should be noted that the high-precision thermocouple is equipped with a heat-resistant protective sleeve, which is a protective device designed to protect the thermocouple from high temperature environments. The heat-resistant protective sleeve refers to a sleeve made of a material that can withstand high temperatures without damage. It is wrapped around the outside of the thermocouple to protect it from physical damage and chemical corrosion from the surrounding environment.
[0057] Specifically, the material of the heat-resistant protective cover can be stainless steel, ceramic or other high-temperature resistant composite materials, which can withstand the high temperature generated by the heat sink while maintaining the measurement accuracy of the thermocouple. The design of the protective cover should take into account the shape and installation position of the heat sink to ensure that it can fit the thermocouple tightly without interfering with the measurement of the thermocouple. The thickness and length of the protective cover can be customized according to the specific working environment and temperature requirements of the heat sink.
[0058] Preferably, the design of the heat-resistant protective sleeve can be further refined to provide additional functions. For example, the surface of the protective sleeve can be coated with an anti-corrosion coating to enhance its durability in harsh environments. The ends of the protective sleeve can be designed with threads or quick connectors to facilitate quick installation and removal. In addition, a layer of thermal insulation material, such as quartz fiber or aerogel, can be added to the inside of the protective sleeve to further improve the thermal stability of the thermocouple.
[0059] In some embodiments, the heat sink control temperature at time tn is calculated The method is: ; ; ; in, is the heat sink control temperature at time tn, in degrees Celsius (℃); is the set heat sink equilibrium temperature, in degrees Celsius (℃); is the real-time temperature of the heat sink at time tn, in degrees Celsius (℃); The safe control temperature of the heat sink is in degrees Celsius (℃); is the temperature control coefficient, which is a constant under certain working conditions.
[0060] It should be noted that this embodiment describes a method for calculating the heat sink control temperature, which determines the control temperature through a specific mathematical formula. The heat sink control temperature here refers to the target temperature set to keep the heat sink within a safe operating range. The method involves several key parameters, including the real-time temperature of the heat sink, the set equilibrium temperature, the safety control temperature, and the temperature control coefficient.
[0061] Specifically, the formula for calculating the control temperature is as follows: ; ; ; in, It's in time The heat sink controls the temperature at all times. is the set heat sink equilibrium temperature, It's time The real-time temperature of the heat sink at the moment, is the safe control temperature of the heat sink, and is the temperature control coefficient, which is a constant under certain working conditions.
[0062] Preferably, these parameters can be set according to the actual heat sink material properties and working environment. Can be set according to the temperature of the heat sink under normal working conditions to safely control the temperature It should be slightly higher than the maximum temperature that may cause damage to the heat sink. Temperature Control Coefficient It can be adjusted according to the system's response time and cooling efficiency to achieve the best control effect.
[0063] Furthermore, real-time adjustment can be The value can be adjusted to adapt to different environmental conditions or the working state of the heat sink, thereby improving the adaptability and control accuracy of the system. Through these detailed operation steps and alternatives, the intelligence level and control effect of the system can be further improved.
[0064] In some embodiments, the system performs the following steps: Step A: When the data processing unit analyzes and obtains the real-time temperature of the heat sink The preset maximum safety threshold is about to be exceeded or has been exceeded When an alarm occurs, an alarm trigger signal is sent to the intelligent control unit; Step B: After receiving the alarm trigger signal, the intelligent control unit automatically performs the following operations: Start or enhance the cooling system to quickly reduce the temperature of the heat sink; Sending an activation signal to the alarm device, triggering the alarm device to emit an audible and visual alarm; Step C: After receiving the activation signal, the alarm device performs the following operations: Sound and light alarms are issued to remind on-site operators to pay attention to abnormal temperature conditions of the heat sink; At the same time, alarm information is sent to the remote server or user terminal through wireless or wired network to realize remote notification function; Step D: After the alarm state lasts for a certain period of time, the intelligent control unit automatically records the event and saves relevant data, including the alarm time, duration and exceeded temperature value.
[0065] It should be noted that this embodiment describes a series of operation steps when the system detects abnormal heat sink temperature. The alarm trigger signal here refers to a signal sent by the data processing unit to the intelligent control unit when the system detects that the real-time temperature of the heat sink is about to or has exceeded the preset maximum safety threshold, to prompt the need to take emergency measures.
[0066] Specifically, step A involves the data processing unit analyzing the real-time temperature of the heat sink and comparing it with a preset maximum safety threshold. If the real-time temperature approaches or exceeds this threshold, the data processing unit will send an alarm trigger signal to the intelligent control unit. This threshold can be set according to the material properties and design requirements of the heat sink to ensure that timely measures are taken to prevent damage when the temperature is too high.
[0067] Preferably, after receiving the alarm trigger signal in step B, the intelligent control unit will automatically perform a series of operations, including starting or enhancing the cooling system to quickly reduce the temperature of the heat sink, and sending an activation signal to the alarm device to trigger an audible and visual alarm. These operations can be preset to be performed automatically without human intervention to ensure a rapid response in an emergency. In addition, the design of the alarm device can include multiple alarm modes, such as sound, light or vibration, to adapt to different working environments and operator needs.
[0068] The above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects: the heat sink intelligent monitoring system can monitor the temperature of the heat sink in real time and automatically adjust the cooling system by integrating a temperature sensor, a data processing unit, an alarm device and an intelligent control unit, thereby ensuring that the heat sink operates stably within a set safe temperature range. The design of the system allows the cooling system to be automatically started or shut down based on the comparison between the real-time temperature data and the preset control temperature, which can improve the heat dissipation efficiency, reduce energy waste, and extend the service life of the heat sink.
[0069] In addition, the system also contains multiple temperature monitoring points that can be evenly distributed on the heat sink to provide more comprehensive heat sink temperature information. By using high-precision thermocouples as temperature sensors, the system can provide more accurate temperature readings, thereby achieving more sophisticated temperature control. The diverse functions of the intelligent control unit, such as temperature monitoring module, threshold setting module, alarm parameter input module, intelligent control module and data logging module, can enhance the flexibility and responsiveness of the system, ensuring that the heat sink temperature can be effectively monitored and controlled under various operating conditions, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the entire system.
