Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cooling pipe arrangement technology, specifically to a cooling manifold arrangement structure. Background Technology
[0002] Cooling manifolds are tubular components in cooling systems used to centrally distribute and collect cooling media (such as coolant and cooling gas). They typically have multiple branch interfaces and can connect to heat dissipation units (cooling pipes, cooling plates, etc.). They are key transit components for cooling media circulation. They can evenly deliver cooling media from cooling sources (such as water pumps and coolers) to each heat dissipation unit, collect the cooling media that has absorbed heat after passing through the heat dissipation unit, and centrally guide it back to the cooling source for cooling, forming a complete circulation loop. This ensures that each heat-generating area receives sufficient cooling media. Furthermore, through reasonable pipe diameter and interface design, the flow state of the medium inside the pipe can be adjusted to reduce pressure loss and ensure balanced flow in each branch.
[0003] In the existing technology, the arrangement of cooling manifolds in the equipment box determines the main heat dissipation area. However, when installing cooling manifolds in the equipment box, it is impossible to ensure that the distance between multiple cooling manifolds is the same, which will result in uneven heat dissipation caused by the deviation in the spacing of the cooling manifolds, reducing the cooling effect on the equipment.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a cooling manifold arrangement structure to address the problems mentioned above. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a cooling manifold arrangement structure, comprising an arrangement mechanism and a cooling mechanism, wherein the outer wall of the cooling mechanism is fixedly inserted into the interior of the arrangement mechanism; The arrangement mechanism includes a cooling equipment box. A first fixing plate is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box. A drive motor is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box. A bidirectional lead screw is fixedly installed on the top of the drive motor, and the top of the bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box. Two second fixing plates are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw. Two limiting grooves are opened on one side of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box. Limiting sliders are movably embedded in the inner surface of the two limiting grooves. One side of the outer wall of the two limiting sliders is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the outer wall of the two second fixing plates. Six temperature sensors are fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box. A first fixing ring is fixedly installed on the top of the first fixing plate. A second fixing ring is fixedly installed on the top of each of the two second fixing plates. A protective frame is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box. A controller is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the cooling equipment box.
[0007] Preferably, the cooling mechanism includes a cold water supply tank and a recovery tank, and a first main pipe is fixedly inserted into one side of the outer wall of the cold water supply tank.
[0008] Preferably, a water pump is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first main pipe, and three first branch pipes are fixedly installed at the output end of the first main pipe.
[0009] Preferably, control valves are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the three first branch pipes, and a second main pipe is fixedly inserted into one side of the outer wall of the recycling box, with three second branch pipes fixedly installed at the output end of the second main pipe.
[0010] Preferably, a cooling water pipe is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of each of the three second branch pipes, and the outer wall of the cooling water pipe is connected to the inside of the cold water supply tank. A connecting pipe is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of each of the three first branch pipes.
[0011] Preferably, each of the three cooling water pipes has a first connecting ring fixedly installed at its inlet end, and each of the three first connecting rings has four first studs fixedly installed on one side of its outer wall.
[0012] Preferably, the outer walls of the three connecting pipes are all fixedly installed with second connecting rings, and the inner walls of the three second connecting rings are movably sleeved on the outer walls of the plurality of first studs, and the outer walls of the plurality of first studs are all threadedly connected with first nuts.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1.

This prevents uneven heat dissipation caused by the deviation of the cooling manifold spacing, and improves the cooling effect inside the equipment.
[0017] 2. By utilizing six temperature sensors, the system can accurately determine which area has the greatest heat dissipation demand. The controller then opens the corresponding control valve on the first branch pipe to dissipate heat to the designated area within the cooling equipment box. Furthermore, the three connecting pipes and three flow dividers break the laminar flow, dispersing the water flow into multiple streams or creating turbulence, increasing the contact area between the water flow and the pipe wall, thereby optimizing the water flow and improving heat exchange efficiency. The connecting pipes are connected to the cooling water pipes via a first connecting ring, a second connecting ring, four first studs, and four first nuts. The flow dividers are connected to the connecting pipes via four mounting slots, four second studs, a cross-shaped connecting post, and four second nuts. The assembly and disassembly process is simple, and their use can be selected based on requirements, making it highly practical. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Please see Figures 1-9 The present invention provides a technical solution: a cooling manifold arrangement structure, including an arrangement mechanism 1 and a cooling mechanism 2, wherein the outer wall of the cooling mechanism 2 is fixedly inserted into the interior of the arrangement mechanism 1; The arrangement mechanism 1 includes a cooling equipment box 101. A first fixing plate 102 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101. A drive motor 103 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101. A double-acting screw 104 is fixedly installed on the top of the drive motor 103, and the top of the double-acting screw 104 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101. Two second fixing plates 105 are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the double-acting screw 104. Two limiting grooves 106 are opened on one side of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101. The inner surface of the two limiting grooves 106... Each wall is movably embedded with a limiting slider 107, and one side of the outer wall of each of the two limiting sliders 107 is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the outer wall of each of the two second fixing plates 105. Six temperature sensors 108 are fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101. A first fixing ring 109 is fixedly installed on the top of the first fixing plate 102, and a second fixing ring 110 is fixedly installed on the top of each of the two second fixing plates 105. A protective frame 111 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101, and a controller 112 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the cooling equipment box 101.
[0022] In this embodiment, the controller 112 is electrically connected to the drive motor 103, six temperature sensors 108, and three control valves 206. The drive motor 103 has a self-locking function. When it is necessary to install three cooling water pipes 209 inside the cooling equipment box 101, and according to the heat dissipation requirements of the cooling equipment box 101, the three cooling water pipes 209 need to be installed at equal intervals. The first fixing plate 102 is installed in the middle position inside the cooling equipment box 101. At this time, the controller 112 starts the drive motor 103 installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101, causing it to drive the bidirectional lead screw 104 to rotate. The top of the bidirectional lead screw 104 rotates at the top of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101. Since two second fixing plates 105 are threaded to the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 104, and the distance between the two second fixing plates 105 and the first fixing plate 102 is equal, two limiting grooves 106 are opened on the inner wall of this side of the cooling equipment box 101, and the two second fixing plates 105 are fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall. Limiting sliders 107 are movably embedded inside the two limiting grooves 106, thereby driving the two second fixing plates 105 to move stably relative to or towards each other along the bidirectional lead screw 104, while always ensuring that the distance between the two second fixing plates 105 and the first fixing plate 102 is equal. Then, three cooling water pipes 209 are placed on the first fixing plate 102 and the two second fixing plates 105 respectively, and simultaneously fixed by the first fixing ring 109 and the two second fixing rings 110. Each of the second fixing rings 110 is detachable, thus preventing uneven heat dissipation caused by misalignment of the three cooling water pipes 209, and improving the cooling effect inside the equipment. Next, a protective frame 111 is installed between the cooling equipment boxes 101. The position of the protective frame 111 does not affect the normal operation of the internal equipment or the movement of the two second fixing plates 105. At the same time, it surrounds the periphery of the bidirectional lead screw 104, which can effectively prevent foreign objects inside the equipment from accumulating on the bidirectional lead screw 104 and affecting its transmission smoothness.
[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figures 5-9As shown, the cooling mechanism 2 includes a cold water supply tank 201 and a recovery tank 202. A first main pipe 203 is fixedly inserted into one side of the outer wall of the cold water supply tank 201. A water pump 204 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the first main pipe 203. Three first branch pipes 205 are fixedly installed at the output end of the first main pipe 203. A control valve 206 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of each of the three first branch pipes 205. A second main pipe 207 is fixedly inserted into one side of the outer wall of the recovery tank 202. Three second branch pipes 208 are fixedly installed at the output end of the second main pipe 207. Cooling water pipes 209 are fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of each of the three second branch pipes 208, and the outer wall of the cooling water pipes 209 is connected to the inside of the cold water supply tank 201. A connecting pipe 210 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of each of the three first branch pipes 205. A first connecting ring 211 is fixedly installed at the input end of each of the three cooling water pipes 209. Four first studs 212 are fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of each of the three first connecting rings 211. Second connecting rings 213 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of each of the three connecting pipes 210. The inner wall of each of the three second connecting rings 213 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the multiple first studs 212. The outer wall of each of the multiple first studs 212 is threadedly connected to a first nut 214. Four mounting grooves 215 are opened on one side of the outer wall of each of the three connecting pipes 210. Second studs 216 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of each of the multiple mounting grooves 215. The four second studs 216 form a group. Cross connecting posts 217 are movably sleeved on the outer wall of each of the three groups of second studs 216. A flow divider cone 218 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of each of the three cross connecting posts 217. Second nuts 219 are threadedly connected to the outer wall of each of the multiple second studs 216. Four mating grooves 220 are opened on one side of the outer wall of each of the three second connecting rings 213.
[0024] In this embodiment, when the three cooling water pipes 209 are installed inside the cooling equipment box 101, the input ends of the three cooling water pipes 209 are connected to the three first branch pipes 205 through three connecting pipes 210. Since six temperature sensors 108 are installed on one side of the inner wall of the cooling equipment box 101, and the distance between the six temperature sensors 108 is equal, they can monitor the temperature changes of corresponding areas inside the cooling equipment box 101 and transmit the temperature data to the controller 112. Then, the temperature data is compared with the originally set temperature value, and a judgment is made. When a temperature abnormality occurs in a temperature sensor 108 at a different height, the controller 112 can be used to activate the corresponding... The control valve 206 installed on the first branch pipe 205 at the appropriate height, and simultaneously the water pump 204, allow the coolant in the cold water supply tank 201 to flow along the first main pipe 203, the corresponding first branch pipe 205, and the corresponding connecting pipe 210 and cooling water pipe 209 within the cooling equipment box 101, carrying away the heat from the corresponding area of the cooling water pipe 209, completing heat exchange, and then returning to the recovery tank 202 along the three second branch pipes 208 and the second main pipe 207. In other words, it can dissipate heat from a designated area within the cooling equipment box 101, offering controllability, high practicality, reducing coolant waste, and ensuring uniform heat dissipation within the cooling equipment box 101. Each of the three cooling water pipes 209 has a first connecting ring 211 installed at its inlet end, and four first studs 212 are installed on one side of each of the three first connecting rings 211. Each of the three connecting pipes 210 can be fitted onto the four first studs 212 via three second connecting rings 213, and the two are compatible. Combined with an external sealing ring, a tight seal is ensured. Then, through the action of four first nuts 214, the nuts rotate downwards along the four first studs 212, thus connecting the three connecting pipes 210 to the three cooling water pipes 209. Furthermore, each of the three connecting pipes 210 has four mounting grooves 215 on the outer wall side away from the water pump 204, and a second stud is installed in each mounting groove 215. 216, while the cross connecting post 217 installed on one side of the outer wall of the diversion cone 218 can be inserted into multiple mounting slots 215 at the same time and pass through multiple second studs 216. Then, by using the corresponding number of second nuts 219, the cross connecting post 217 and the diversion cone 218 can be installed inside the connecting pipe 210. The disassembly and assembly process is simple and can be selected according to needs, making it highly practical. Furthermore, the other side of each of the three second connecting rings 213 is provided with a docking groove 220, and each docking groove 220 corresponds to the mounting slot 215. This can break the laminar flow state, disperse the water flow into multiple streams or form turbulence, increase the contact area between the water flow and the pipe wall, thereby optimizing the water flow state and improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0025] The usage and working principle of this device are as follows: First, according to the installation spacing requirements of the three cooling water pipes 209 in the cooling equipment box 101, the drive motor 103 is started by the controller 112. Since the limiting sliders 107 installed on one side of the outer wall of the two second fixing plates 105 are movably embedded in the two limiting grooves 106, the two second fixing plates 105 can be driven to move relative to or towards each other on the bidirectional lead screw 104 at the same time, which can ensure that the distance between the two second fixing plates 105 and the first fixing plate 102 is equal. After moving to the designated position, the operation of the drive motor 103 is stopped. Then, the three cooling water pipes 209 are placed on the first fixing plate 102 and the two limiting grooves 106 respectively. The second fixing plate 105 is fixed in place by the first fixing ring 109 and two second fixing rings 110. Then, the flow divider cone 218 is fitted onto four second studs 216 via a cross-shaped connecting post 217, and is located within four mounting slots 215 on one side of the outer wall of the connecting pipe 210. The flow divider cone 218 is then installed inside the connecting pipe 210 using four second nuts 219. Next, the connecting pipe 210 is fitted onto four first studs 212 via a second connecting ring 213, and simultaneously makes close contact with the first connecting ring 211 installed at the input end of the cooling water pipe 209. Finally, the connecting pipe 210 is connected to the cooling water pipe 209 using four first nuts 214. Subsequently, all three connecting pipes 210 are sealed to the three first branch pipes 205 installed at the output end of the first main pipe 203. Since six temperature sensors 108 of equal height are installed inside the cooling equipment box 101, when a temperature sensor 108 at a corresponding height detects an abnormal temperature and requires heat dissipation, it can transmit the corresponding value to the controller 112 and compare it with the original temperature value. The controller 112 can then open the control valve 206 installed on the corresponding first branch pipe 205 and start the water pump 204, allowing the coolant in the cold water supply tank 201 to flow along the first main pipe 203, the corresponding connecting pipes 210, and the flow divider 205. The water flows through pipes 18 and 209, and returns to the recovery tank 202 along the three second branch pipes 208 and the second main pipe 207. Through the action of the diversion cone 218, the laminar flow state can be broken, the water flow can be dispersed into multiple streams or form turbulence, and the contact area between the water flow and the pipe wall can be increased, thereby optimizing the water flow state and improving the heat exchange efficiency. In general, through the action of the arrangement mechanism 1 and the cooling mechanism 2, the distance between the three cooling water pipes 209 can be effectively adjusted to ensure the uniformity of heat dissipation inside, and at the same time, it can also effectively dissipate heat in the corresponding height area, reduce the waste of coolant resources, and has high practicality, thereby improving the cooling effect inside the equipment.
