[0002] The intercooler is actually a supporting part of the turbocharger. Its function is to reduce the temperature of the high-temperature air after supercharging, so as to reduce the heat load of the engine, increase the intake volume, and thus increase the power of the engine. A core component of the intercooler is the intercooler pipe assembly. The intercooler pipe assembly is an intercooler tube (hollow flat tube) with inner fins inserted for heat dissipation.

An arc-shaped plate corresponding to the first cylinder 3 is disposed within the mounting plate 13. Multiple mounting bolts 14 are provided on one side of the mounting plate 13, which threadably engage with the frame 1. Slide grooves are defined at the top and bottom of the inner wall of the frame 1, with the top and bottom ends of the plate 2 slidingly engaging with the two slide grooves, respectively. The mounting plate 13 can be removed or installed using the mounting bolts 14, securing the first cylinder 3 with the arc-shaped plate on the mounting plate 13. The position of the first cylinder 3 can be adjusted as needed, and the plate 2 moves stably left and right along the two slide grooves.
[0032] Reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, the internal thread of the spacer block 8 is engaged with two first screw rods 15. The top ends of the two first screw rods 15 are rotatably engaged with support blocks 16. Two grooves 17 corresponding to the two support blocks 16 are formed on the top of the spacer block 8. The two support blocks 16 are respectively located on both sides of the top of the spacer block 8. By setting the first screw rod 15, the first screw rod 15 can be rotated to drive the support blocks 16, so that the support blocks 16 move out of the grooves 17, and the height of the support blocks 16 can be adjusted, so that the two support blocks 16 can respectively provide stable support for the two sides of the bottom of the core 9.

By setting the second screw rod 25, the second screw rod 25 can be rotated to push the movable plate 26 to move, so that the movable plate 26 drives the first inclined block 27 and the second inclined block 28 to move. At this time, the first inclined block 27 will squeeze one end of the limit baffle 4, so that one end of the limit baffle 4 moves backward in the flat plate 2. Rotating the second screw rod 25 in the opposite direction can make the second screw rod 25 pull the movable plate 26 to move, so that the movable plate 26 drives the first inclined block 27 and the second inclined block 28 to move. At this time, the second inclined block 28 will squeeze the corner of the limit baffle 4, so that the limit baffle 4 moves forward in the flat plate 2. The position of the adjusting plate 6 at one end of the limit baffle 4 can be adjusted as needed to adapt to the thickness of the core 9.
[0036] Reference Figure 3 The adjustment mechanism 7 of this embodiment includes a rotating frame 29 that rotates with one end of the limit baffle 4, and a second motor 30 mounted at the bottom of the limit baffle 4.

A guide tube 33 is provided at the top of the guide chamber 32. A plurality of mounting ears 34 are provided on one side of the guide chamber 32. Each of the plurality of heat dissipation tubes 36 is provided with internal fins 37. The guide chamber 32 allows communication between the guide chamber 32 and the plurality of heat dissipation tubes 36, allowing the guide tubes 33 on the guide chamber 32 to be connected to the outside. Heat dissipation is achieved using the plurality of heat dissipation tubes 36. The mounting ears 34 securely mount the entire intercooler.
[0038] Reference Figure 6In this embodiment, multiple heat pipes 36 are stacked sequentially on top of the support plate 35. Two short seals 38 are provided between each pair of adjacent heat pipes 36 and between each heat pipe 36 and the support plate 35. The two short seals 38 are located at both ends of the heat pipe 36. A heat dissipation belt 39 is provided between the two corresponding support plates 35.

The inner fins 37 are wavy in shape, with the top and bottom of the inner fins 37 respectively abutting against opposite sides of the two baffles 40. The baffles 40 and the two long seals 41 are arranged to form a square tube. The inner fins 37 are assembled within the square tube formed by the two baffles 40 and the two long seals 41, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area and improving heat exchange efficiency.
[0040] Working principle: When in use, first, the support plate 35 is the overall support structure of the intercooler. The support plate 35 is placed on the top of the pad 8. The support height of the pad 8 can be adjusted. Then, it is adjusted according to the width and thickness of the support plate 35. First, the first cylinder 3 is started to drive the flat plate 2 to move. The flat plate 2 will drive the limit baffle 4 to move. When the two flat plates 2 move toward each other, the two limit baffles 4 limit and fix the two ends of the support plate 35. Then, the moving mechanism 5 is mobilized to drive the limit baffle 4 to move back and forth, so that the limit baffle 4 drives the adjustment plate 6 to move, so that the adjustment plate 6 limits Fix the front side of the support plate 35 so that the flat plate 2 and the adjustment plate 6 limit and fix the support plate 35, and then the rotating mechanism 10 drives the second cylinder 11 to move, so that the second cylinder 11 drives the pressure plate 12 to move, and the pressure plate 12 will drive the pneumatic suction cup 21 to move, so that the pneumatic suction cup 21 can transfer the corresponding parts as needed, and stack multiple short seals 38 and multiple heat pipes 36 on the top of the support plate 35 in turn to assemble the core 9. After the assembly is completed, the pressure plate 12 and the pad 8 limit and fix the top and bottom of the core 9, and the subsequent fixed installation operation can be carried out to install and fix the guide chamber 32.
