DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present application, but only represents selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0016] Reference Figures 1 to 4As shown, the present application provides an oil cooler core flat tube, which comprises an outer tube 1, an inner fin 2 fixedly installed inside the outer tube 1, and a protection assembly 3 installed on the outer surface of the outer tube 1. The protection assembly 3 comprises a protection shell 301, a plurality of damping shells 302 fixedly installed inside the protection shell 301, a damping spring 304 arranged inside each damping shell 302, and a damping rod 303 slidably connected inside each damping shell 302. One end of each damping rod 303 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer tube 1, and a spray head 305 is communicated with one side of each damping shell 302. The output end of the spray head 305 is communicated with the inside of the protection shell 301. When the overall device is in use, the lubricating oil flows between the outer tube 1 and the inner fin 2. Since the inner fin 2 is a rectangular staggered disturbance fin, the inner fin 2 can further increase the oil flow area of the oil cooler, increase the flow resistance, and further improve the heat exchange performance compared with the traditional tube sheet type oil cooler, thereby meeting the increasing performance requirements of customers, and greatly reducing the product cost. When the lubricating oil flows between the outer tube 1 and the inner fin 2, the plurality of damping springs 304 are affected by the flow rate of the lubricating oil. The lubricating oil transmits pressure to the plurality of damping rods 303, and the plurality of damping rods 303 apply pressure to the damping spring 304. Each damping rod 303 is driven by the damping spring 304 to elastically deform. Each damping rod 303 reciprocally moves inside each damping shell 302, so that the pressure of the lubricating oil is converted into a deformation force by each damping spring 304. The vibration of the outer tube 1 caused by the change of the flow rate of the lubricating oil during use is reduced, and abnormal vibration of the outer tube 1 caused by the lubricating oil fluid is prevented. Long-term vibration may cause tube bundle rupture, flange loosening, or shell fatigue cracking. Since each damping shell 302 contains a corrosion inhibitor-containing cooling liquid, each damping rod 303 reciprocally moves inside each damping shell 302, and each damping rod 303 extrudes the corrosion inhibitor-containing cooling liquid inside each damping shell 302. The corrosion inhibitor-containing cooling liquid is then pressurized and sprayed onto the surface of the protection shell 301 through each spray head 305. The corrosion inhibitor-containing cooling liquid can form a protective film on the surface of the protection shell 301 to isolate air, water vapor, and other corrosive gases, thereby preventing the surface of the protection shell 301 from being corroded or rusted, reducing the friction between the protection shells 301, and improving the service life of the overall device. Referring to Figures 5 to 6 As shown, the outer tube 1 is rotatably installed with an adjusting assembly 4. The adjusting assembly 4 comprises a first turnover rod 401, a plurality of first baffles 402 fixedly installed on the first turnover rod 401, a second turnover rod 403 movably connected inside the first turnover rod 401, and a plurality of second baffles 404 fixedly installed on the second turnover rod 403. The plurality of second baffles 404 and the plurality of first baffles 402 are located at the through port of the outer tube 1 and the inner fin 2. During use, the outer tube 1, because the multiple sets of second baffles 404 and the multiple sets of first baffles 402 are located at the opening of the outer tube 1 and the inner fin 2, and each set of second baffles 404 is fixedly connected with the second turnover rod 403 through the groove on each set of first turnover rod 401, so the staff can adjust the size of the opening of the outer tube 1 and the inner fin 2 and the number of the opening of the outer tube 1 and the inner fin 2 by rotating the first turnover rod 401 and the second turnover rod 403 in turn, respectively, and the first turnover rod 401 drives the multiple sets of first baffles 402 and the second turnover rod 403 drives the multiple sets of second baffles 404. Because the viscosity of the lubricating oil changes significantly with temperature, the viscosity is high and the flowability is poor at low temperature, and the viscosity is low and the flowability is good at high temperature, the size of the opening of the outer tube 1 and the inner fin 2 is adjusted to compensate for the influence of the change in viscosity on the heat exchange performance.

Since each group of damping shells 302 contains the corrosion inhibitor-containing cooling liquid, each group of damping rods 303 reciprocates in each group of damping shells 302, each group of damping rods 303 extrudes the corrosion inhibitor-containing cooling liquid in each group of damping shells 302, and then the corrosion inhibitor-containing cooling liquid is pressed and sprayed onto the surface of the protective shell 301 through each group of nozzles 305, thereby protecting the protective shell 301.
