Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0023] The heat treatment refers to heating an object, and the cold treatment refers to cooling the object. The heat treatment and the cold treatment are basic treatment methods in the industry and are widely applied in processes such as material and device forming, assembly and packaging, connection and separation. A non-uniform heat field is easy to cause non-uniform thermal stress in the interior of a material or a device, and to cause serious performance degradation or even safety hazards. Traditional heat field homogenization generally adopts a large and thick heat-conducting material, so that the temperature field is gradually diffused in the heat-conducting material until uniform. Although this method is simple, the heat-conducting material needs to be thick enough to obtain a relatively uniform temperature field. However, the thick heat-conducting material affects the rate of heat transfer, causes poor real-time controllability of temperature control in a process, and the thick heat-conducting plate is heavy, which leads to a heavy final device and high transportation and installation costs.

[0024] Based on this, the application provides a heat exchange structure and device, which can realize heat exchange, make the temperature field uniform, reduce the risk of non-uniform thermal stress of an object subjected to heat treatment or cold treatment, and does not need to use thick heat-conducting material, thereby improving the efficiency of heat transfer, reducing the weight of the device, and reducing the installation cost.

[0025] With reference to Figures 1 to 4 The first aspect embodiment of the application provides a heat exchange structure, which comprises a substrate 200 and a temperature conduction assembly. The temperature conduction assembly comprises a plurality of temperature conduction units arranged in sequence. Each temperature conduction unit comprises at least two lower plate pieces 110 and at least three upper plate pieces 120. Each lower plate piece 110 of the temperature conduction unit is located below the upper plate piece 120. The first side of each lower plate piece 110 and the first side of each upper plate piece 120 are connected to each other. The second side of each upper plate piece 120 is connected to the substrate 200. The second side of each lower plate piece 110 is used to be connected to a heat source module 300.

[0026] The second sides of two adjacent lower plate pieces 110 in the temperature conduction unit form a first interval. The second sides of two adjacent upper plate pieces 120 in the temperature conduction unit form a second interval.

[0027] It is worth noting that when the heat exchange structure is in use, the object to be heat treated or cold treated is placed on the substrate 200, and then the second side of each lower plate piece 110 is connected with the heat source module 300. In each temperature conduction unit, the heat or cold in the heat source module 300 is transferred to the lower plate piece 110, and then the heat or cold is conducted to the connection between the first side of each lower plate piece 110 and the first side of each upper plate piece 120 through each lower plate piece 110, and then the heat or cold is transferred from the connection to each upper plate piece 120, and then the heat or cold is transferred to the substrate 200 through the upper plate piece 120. Since the temperature conduction unit is provided with a plurality of temperature conduction units, the heat or cold in the heat source module 300 can be uniformly transferred to the substrate 200 through the temperature conduction unit, so that the temperature of the substrate 200 is uniform, that is, the temperature field of the substrate 200 is homogenized, so that the substrate 200 can heat treat or cold treat the object. Therefore, the heat exchange structure of the present application can realize heat exchange and homogenize the temperature field, and reduce the risk of uneven thermal stress of the object to be heat treated or cold treated.

[0028] It is worth noting that the width of the first interval in the horizontal direction is a first preset distance; and the width of the second interval in the horizontal direction is a second preset distance.

[0029] It should be noted that the present application does not make specific limitations on the specific values of the first preset distance and the second preset distance, and those skilled in the art can set the values of the first preset distance and the second preset distance according to actual needs.

[0030] In some embodiments, the number of lower plate pieces 110 in the same temperature conduction unit is less than the number of upper plate pieces 120. For example, in one temperature conduction unit, the number of lower plate pieces 110 is 2, and the number of upper plate pieces 120 is 3. In one temperature conduction unit, two lower plate pieces 110 contact the heat source module 300, so two lower plate pieces 110 are equivalent to two heat sources or cold sources, and then the heat or cold is transferred to three upper plate pieces 120, which is equivalent to splitting two heat sources into three heat sources. If the number of temperature conduction units is S, then after M temperature conduction units, it is equivalent to splitting 2S heat sources into 3S heat sources, and 3M heat sources contact the substrate 200, so that the temperature on the substrate 200 is uniform.

[0031] In some embodiments, with reference to Figure 2The temperature conduction assembly is provided with S temperature conduction assemblies, the S temperature conduction assemblies are sequentially stacked, the second side of each upper plate 120 of the temperature conduction unit located at the Sth layer is in abutment with the substrate 200; the second side of the upper plate 120 of the temperature conduction unit located at the ith layer is in abutment with the second side of the lower plate 110 of the temperature conduction unit located at the (i+1)th layer; the second side of the plate of the temperature conduction unit located at the ith layer is in abutment with the second side of the upper plate 120 of the temperature conduction unit located at the (i-1)th layer; i is a positive integer less than S and greater than 1.

[0032] Specifically, the S temperature conduction assemblies are sequentially stacked from bottom to top, the second side of each upper plate 120 of the temperature conduction unit located at the Sth layer is in abutment with the substrate 200, and each lower plate 110 of the temperature conduction unit located at the 1st layer is connected with the heat source module 300. The heat or cold quantity in the heat source module 300 is transmitted to each lower plate 110 of the temperature conduction unit located at the 1st layer, and then the lower plate 110 of the 1st layer transmits the heat or cold quantity to the upper plate 120 of the 1st layer, and then the upper plate 120 of the 1st layer transmits the heat or cold quantity to the lower plate 110 of the temperature conduction unit located at the 2nd layer. In this way, the upper plate 120 of the (i-1)th layer transmits the heat or cold quantity to the lower plate 110 of the ith layer, and the lower plate 110 of the ith layer transmits the cold quantity and the heat to the upper plate 120 of the ith layer. In this way, the heat or cold quantity is gradually transmitted from the heat source module 300 to the substrate 200, so that the temperature field in the substrate 200 is uniform.

[0033] It should be noted that S is a positive integer greater than 2, and the number S of layers of the temperature conduction assembly is not specifically limited in the present application, and a person skilled in the art can set the specific value of S according to actual needs.

[0034] In some embodiments, the connection between the first sides of each lower plate 110 in the temperature conduction unit is the same as the first vertical distance between the second sides of each lower plate 110 in the same temperature conduction unit.

[0035] In some embodiments, the connection between the first sides of each upper plate 120 in the temperature conduction unit is the same as the second vertical distance between the second sides of each upper plate 120 in the same temperature conduction unit.

[0036] It should be noted that the vertical distance refers to the distance in the vertical direction. In the temperature conduction unit, the first vertical distance between the connection and the second side of each lower plate 110 is the same, so the second sides of the respective lower plates 110 are at the same horizontal position. In the temperature conduction unit, the second vertical distance between the connection and the second side of each upper plate 120 in the same temperature conduction unit is the same, so the second sides of the respective upper plates 120 are at the same horizontal position. In this way, the temperature conduction assemblies are stacked, and the temperature conduction assemblies are connected to the heat source module 300 and the substrate 200.

[0037] In some embodiments, the number of temperature conduction units in the i-th layer is M, and the number of temperature conduction units in the i+1-th layer is 2M. In this way, in the heat exchange structure, the number of temperature conduction units in each layer of temperature conduction assemblies gradually increases, and the number of heat source splits gradually increases in the process of heat or cold transfer, so that the heat or cold is uniformly transferred to the substrate 200. It should be noted that the specific value of M is not limited in the present application, and those skilled in the art can set the value of M according to the actual situation. M is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0038] In some embodiments, the number of lower plates 110 in the temperature conduction unit is 2, and the number of upper plates 120 in the temperature conduction unit is 3; the second preset distance of the temperature conduction unit in the i-th layer is half of the first preset distance of the temperature conduction unit in the i-1-th layer. Therefore, when stacked, each temperature conduction unit in the i-th layer corresponds to two temperature conduction units in the i+1-th layer, so that the size of each layer of temperature conduction units gradually decreases, thereby realizing the gradual increase in the number of temperature conduction units in each layer.

[0039] In some embodiments, the lower plate 110 and the upper plate 120 are both square plates, and are aluminum plates or steel plates. Those skilled in the art can freely set the thickness of the aluminum plate or the steel plate.

[0040] In some embodiments, the temperature conduction unit is composed of three square plates, two square plates are cross-connected, and the other square plate is arranged at the cross-connection. In some other embodiments, referring to Figure 3 , the temperature conduction unit can also be composed of a combination of square plates and arc-shaped plates. One arc-shaped plate is bent to form two upper plates 120, and one square plate is arranged in the middle of the arc-shaped plate as an upper plate 120.

[0041] The second aspect of the present application provides a device comprising the heat exchange structure of any one of the first aspect of the embodiments.

[0042] It is worth noting that, since the device comprises the heat exchange structure of the first aspect, the corresponding contents of the heat exchange structure in the first aspect can be applied to the device of the second aspect, and have the same implementation principles and technical effects. To avoid redundancy of the description, the details are not described here.

[0043] In some embodiments, the device further comprises a temperature source module 300, the temperature source module 300 comprising a plurality of heating rods 310, the heating rods 310 abutting the second side of each lower plate piece 110 of the temperature conduction unit located in the first layer.

[0044] In some embodiments, the temperature source module 300 further comprises a cooling pipe 320, the cooling pipe 320 abutting the second side of each lower plate piece 110 of the temperature conduction unit located in the first layer, the cooling pipe 320 and the heating rod 310 being alternately distributed.

[0045] Specifically, referring to Figure 4 , the cooling pipe 320 is meandered to form a plurality of gaps, and the heating rod 310 is arranged in the gap, so as to realize the alternate distribution of the cooling pipe 320 and the heating rod 310. The second side of each lower plate piece 110 of the temperature conduction unit of the first layer respectively abuts the cooling pipe 320 and the heating rod 310. Since the second side of each lower plate piece 110 of the temperature conduction unit of the first layer respectively abuts the cooling pipe 320 and the heating rod 310, the cooling capacity output by the cooling pipe 320 or the heat output by the heating rod 310 can be transmitted to the substrate 200 through each layer of temperature conduction assembly. Generally, the cooling pipe 320 stops working when the cold gas or condensate is input, and the heating rod 310 stops working when the cooling pipe 320 stops inputting the cooling or condensate. The heating rod 310 can be an electric heating rod 310. The cold gas in the cooling pipe 320 can be cold air.

[0046] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge range of ordinary skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present application. In addition, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
