Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of engine cooling device technology, and more particularly to a cooling device and system for an automobile engine. Background Technology
[0002] To prevent mechanical damage such as thermal expansion mismatch of metal parts, lubricant failure, and knocking caused by engine overheating, it is generally necessary to install an engine cooling device. The engine cooling device can precisely regulate the engine operating temperature and remove excess heat generated by combustion in a timely manner through a forced heat dissipation mechanism. Existing automotive engine cooling systems mainly consist of a radiator, water pump, thermostat, cooling fan, and coolant circulation piping. Their core function is to regulate engine temperature through a forced-circulation water cooling system. The water pump drives the coolant to circulate between the engine water jacket and the radiator. The thermostat automatically switches between a small circulation (where the coolant bypasses the radiator at low temperatures to rapidly heat up) and a large circulation (where the coolant passes through the radiator at high temperatures to maintain a constant temperature). The radiator releases heat through forced air convection via the fan, while the coolant acts as a medium to transfer heat and prevent metal corrosion. This system not only prevents engine overheating that could lead to knocking and increased wear, but also reduces component wear and pollutant emissions at low temperatures, ensuring efficient engine operation under optimal conditions of 80-95℃. In existing car engines, the oil becomes viscous and has poor fluidity at low temperatures during cold starts, making it unable to quickly form an effective oil film to protect components such as pistons and crankshafts, leading to "dry friction" wear. Therefore, engines often need to be preheated. However, existing engines mostly rely on the heat generated after starting to preheat, which means that existing cooling devices cannot regulate the temperature of the engine itself during preheating. As a result, the overall temperature of the engine is still low before starting, and existing car engine cooling devices cannot adjust the temperature of the engine before starting.

[0013] A cooling system for an automobile engine, comprising the cooling device for the automobile engine.
[0014] This invention discloses a cooling device and system for an automobile engine. In actual operation, the coolant inside the cooling tank is separated by a partition frame. When the engine overheats, a water pump installed inside the engine and a drain pipe guide the coolant from the corresponding area of the cooling tank into the engine's piping. The introduced coolant absorbs excess heat from the engine and then flows back to the corresponding side of the cooling tank through the circulation pipe. When cooling the engine, the two sides of the cooling tank are interconnected through a connecting frame, a flow control valve, a control motor, and their corresponding pipes, allowing the coolant inside the cooling tank to circulate and cool the engine. When the coolant temperature inside the cooling tank exceeds a preset range... The heat-conducting component and the heat-storing component work together with the semiconductor cooling plate to cool the coolant inside the cooling tank. The heat generated by the heating end of the semiconductor cooling plate is stored in the heat-storing component. When the engine is in a cold start state, the heat stored in the heat-storing component can heat the coolant inside the cooling tank through the heat-conducting component. Then, the heated coolant is pumped into the engine pipeline by a water pump, which allows for rapid preheating of the engine before starting. This achieves the ability to store and absorb heat during engine operation through the provided components, so as to adjust the engine's operating environment temperature before starting the engine using the stored heat. This greatly reduces the wear of the internal engine components during engine start-up. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0029] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0030] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 12This invention provides a cooling device and system for an automobile engine, comprising a mounting base 101, a cooling box 102, an outlet pipe 103, a circulation pipe 104, and a control assembly. The control assembly includes a partition frame 105, a semiconductor cooling plate 106, a connecting frame 107, a flow control valve 108, a control motor 109, a heat-conducting component, and a heat-storing component. The heat-conducting component includes a heat transfer groove frame 201, a guide post 202, a shielding frame 203, and a spring 204. The heat-storing component includes a side guide frame 301, a storage side frame 302, a heat transfer insert plate 303, a heat insulation sleeve 304, a driving component, and a connecting component. The driving component includes a connecting frame 401, a lifting plate 402, and a pulling component 403. The connecting component includes a connecting pipe 501, a flow control frame 502, and a connecting pipe. 503, flow control valve 504, and flow control motor 505. The driving components also include a lifting screw 404, an upper bevel gear 405, a double-headed bevel gear shaft 406, and a shaft drive mechanism 407. The aforementioned solution solves the problem that in existing automobile engines, the oil is viscous and has poor fluidity at low temperatures during cold starts, making it impossible to quickly form an effective oil film to protect components such as pistons and crankshafts, resulting in "dry friction" wear. Therefore, the engine often needs to be preheated. However, existing engines mostly rely on the heat generated after starting to preheat, which means that existing cooling devices cannot regulate the temperature of the engine body during preheating. This results in the overall temperature of the engine being still low before starting, and the existing automobile engine cooling devices cannot adjust the temperature of the engine before starting.
[0032] Furthermore, the cooling box 102 is fixedly installed on the mounting base 101, the outlet pipe 103 is installed on one side of the cooling box 102, the circulation pipe 104 is installed on one side of the cooling box 102, the partition frame 105 is disposed inside the cooling box 102, and the partition frame 105 is disposed inside the cooling box 102 to divide the cooling box 102 into two areas. A plurality of semiconductor cooling plates 106 are installed on one side of the partition frame 105. The connecting frame 107 is connected to the cooling box 102. The diversion valve 108 is installed inside the connecting frame 107. The output shaft of the rotary control motor 109 is connected to the diversion valve 108. The rotary control motor 109 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting frame 107. The heat-conducting component is connected to the cooling box 102 for transferring heat inside the cooling box 102. The heat storage component is connected to the cooling box 102 for collecting and storing heat inside the cooling box 102.
[0033] Specifically, the cooling box 102 is divided into two areas, a heat dissipation area and a heat generation area, by the partition frame 105 set inside. Both areas of the cooling box 102 can be equipped with corresponding temperature monitoring elements to monitor the temperature of the coolant on both sides of the cooling box 102. Since the monitoring of the coolant inside the cooling box 102 is a very mature existing structure, it will not be described in detail in this solution.
[0034] A plurality of semiconductor cooling plates 106 are fixedly installed on the partition frame 105. The heating end and the heat absorption end of the semiconductor cooling plate 106 correspond to the heating area and the heat dissipation area separated by the partition frame 105, respectively. The outlet pipe 103 is disposed in the heating area and the circulation pipe 104 is disposed in the heat dissipation area.
[0035] The heat-generating area and heat-dissipating area separated by the cooling box 102 are connected by the connecting frame 107 and corresponding pipes. The connecting frame 107 is equipped with the diversion valve 108, which has an "L"-shaped guide groove. The diversion valve 108 is driven by the rotary control motor 109 so as to adjust the connection relationship between the heat-generating area and heat-dissipating area on both sides of the cooling box 102 by changing the state of the diversion valve 108.
[0036] When the engine is cooled, the heating and cooling zones of the cooling box 102 are interconnected. The entire coolant cooling process is the same as the cooling cycle of the existing cooling device. When the engine is preheated before starting, the heating and cooling zones of the cooling box 102 are separated. Then, the coolant in the heating and cooling zones of the cooling box 102 is heated and cooled respectively by the semiconductor cooling plate 106, so that the coolant in the heating zone of the cooling box 102 can be heated in conjunction with the heat-conducting component and the heat storage component. After that, the heated coolant is introduced into the engine's pipes for preheating.
[0037] In actual operation, the coolant inside the cooling tank 102 is separated by the partition frame 105. When the engine overheats, the coolant in the corresponding area of the cooling tank 102 is introduced into the engine's piping through the water pump installed inside the engine and the outlet pipe 103. The introduced coolant absorbs the excess heat from the engine and then flows back to the corresponding side of the cooling tank 102 through the circulation pipe 104. When cooling the engine, the two sides of the cooling tank 102 are interconnected through the connecting frame 107, the diversion valve 108, the rotary control motor 109, and their corresponding pipes, allowing the coolant inside the cooling tank 102 to circulate and cool the engine. When the coolant temperature inside the cooling tank 102 exceeds a preset range... When the engine is in a cold start state, the heat-conducting component and the heat storage component work together with the semiconductor cooling plate 106 to cool the coolant inside the cooling box 102. The heat generated by the heating end of the semiconductor cooling plate 106 is stored in the heat storage component. When the engine is in a cold start state, the heat stored in the heat storage component can heat the coolant inside the cooling box 102 through the heat-conducting component. Then, the heated coolant is pumped into the engine pipeline by the water pump, so that the engine can be quickly preheated before starting. This realizes that the heat generated during the engine operation can be stored and absorbed by the provided components, so as to adjust the engine's operating environment temperature before starting the engine. This greatly reduces the wear of the internal engine components when starting the engine.
[0038] Furthermore, multiple heat transfer slot frames 201 are fixedly installed on the outside of the cooling box 102; each heat transfer slot frame 201 is fixedly installed with a guide post 202; the shielding frame 203 is disposed inside the heat transfer slot frame 201 and is slidably connected to the guide post 202; the two sides of the spring 204 are respectively connected to the shielding frame 203 and the heat transfer slot frame 201.
[0039] In this embodiment, the heat transfer groove frame 201 is fixedly installed on both sides of the cooling box 102. The heat transfer groove frame 201 is provided with a heat conduction groove. The two sides of the groove wall are made of heat conduction material. Except for the groove wall of the heat conduction groove, the rest of the heat transfer groove frame 201 is made of heat insulation material to ensure that the heat inside the cooling box 102 does not dissipate too quickly. The entire cooling box 102 is also made of heat insulation material.
[0040] The heat transfer trough frame 201 is provided with the shielding frame 203. The shielding frame 203 cooperates with the sliding groove of the heat transfer trough frame 201 and the guide post 202 provided inside the sliding groove. The shielding frame 203 is adapted to the heat conduction groove of the heat transfer trough frame 201. Each shielding frame 203 is also provided with the spring 204 for cooperation.
[0041] Under normal circumstances, the shielding frame 203 on the heat transfer groove frame 201 will close and shield the heat conduction groove of the heat transfer groove frame 201 under the action of the spring 204, so that the heat conduction groove wall of the heat transfer groove frame 201 will not cause a large amount of heat loss.
[0042] Furthermore, two side guide frames 301 are fixedly installed on both sides of the cooling box 102; the two storage side frames 302 are slidably connected to the side guide frames 301 installed on both sides of the cooling box 102; a plurality of heat transfer plates 303 are fixedly installed on the side of each storage side frame 302 near the heat transfer groove frame 201; a plurality of heat insulation sleeves 304 are arranged one-to-one with a plurality of heat transfer plates 303, and the two sides of the heat insulation sleeves 304 are respectively connected to the heat transfer groove frame 201 and the storage side frame 302; the driving component is connected to the cooling box 102 and is used to drive the storage side frames 302 on both sides to move; the communicating component is connected to the storage side frame 302 and is used to control the communication relationship between the storage side frames 302 on both sides.
[0043] Furthermore, the connecting frame 401 is fixedly installed on both sides of the cooling box 102; each connecting frame 401 is slidably installed with the lifting plate 402; each lifting plate 402 is installed with the pulling member 403 on both sides, and the two sides of the pulling member 403 are respectively rotatably connected to the lifting plate 402 and the storage side frame 302 on the corresponding side.
[0044] Furthermore, the two sides of the guide tube 501 are respectively connected to the two storage side racks 302; the flow control rack 502 is fixedly installed at the bottom of one of the storage side racks 302; the two sides of the connecting tube 503 are respectively connected to the partition rack 105 and the flow control rack 502; the flow control valve 504 is rotatably installed inside the flow control rack 502; the output shaft of the flow control motor 505 is connected to the flow control valve 504, and the flow control motor 505 is fixedly installed on one side of the flow control rack 502.
[0045] Furthermore, the two lifting screws 404 are rotatably mounted on the two connecting frames 401 respectively, and the two lifting screws 404 are threadedly connected to the lifting plates 402 on both sides respectively; each lifting screw 404 is fixedly mounted with an upper bevel gear 405; the double-headed bevel gear shaft 406 is rotatably mounted on the top of the cooling box 102, and the bevel gears on both sides of the double-headed bevel gear shaft 406 are respectively connected to the two upper bevel gears 405; the shaft drive mechanism 407 is mounted on the cooling box 102 and is used to drive the double-headed bevel gear shaft 406 to rotate.
[0046] In this embodiment, during use, the two storage side frames 302 are respectively connected to the side guide frames 301 on both sides of the cooling box 102. Each storage side frame 302 is also fixedly equipped with multiple heat transfer plates 303. The heat transfer plates 303 are made of thermally conductive material and are adapted to the thermally conductive grooves of the heat transfer groove frame 201. At the same time, heat insulation sleeves 304 are installed at the positions where the heat transfer plates 303 and the heat transfer groove frame 201 cooperate. The heat insulation sleeves 304 are made of soft heat insulation material to facilitate the sliding of the storage side frame 302. The heat insulation sleeves 304 can prevent the heat of the storage side frame 302 from leaking to the outside through the heat transfer plates 303.
[0047] The two storage side racks 302 are connected by multiple conductive pipes 501. One of the storage side racks 302 is connected to the partition frame 105 via the flow control frame 502 and the connecting pipe 503. The connecting pipe 503 is a flexible hose made of heat-insulating material, which can extend and retract with the corresponding storage side rack 302. The flow control frame 502 is also equipped with a flow control valve 504 and a flow control motor 505 for control. The flow control valve 504 and the flow control motor 505 are structurally and functionally related to the diversion valve 108 and the diversion control motor 109. Both are used to control the flow between corresponding media. The area where the storage side frame 302 and the partition frame 105 are connected is located at the heating end of the semiconductor cooling plate 106, so that the high-temperature coolant flow in the heating area of the cooling box 102 can be combined with the two storage side frames 302. This allows the high-temperature coolant inside the cooling box 102 to be quickly cooled down by mixing with the coolant inside the two storage side frames 302 after exceeding the preset temperature. At the same time, the two storage side frames 302 can also absorb and exchange heat as quickly as possible.
[0048] The heat transfer plates 303 mounted on the storage side frames 302 on both sides can cooperate with the heat transfer groove frames 201 mounted on both sides of the cooling box 102 through the sliding of the storage side frames 302. This allows the heat stored inside the storage side frames 302 to be transferred into the cooling box 102 through the cooperation of the heat transfer plates 303 and the heat conduction grooves of the heat transfer groove frames 201. When the heat transfer plates 303 cooperate with the heat transfer groove frames 201, the heat transfer plates 303 will continuously squeeze... Pressing the shielding frame 203 allows the corresponding side of the heat transfer plate 303 to be located within the heat conduction groove of the heat transfer rack 201, thereby utilizing the cooperation between the heat transfer plate 303 and the heat transfer rack 201 to perform heat transfer. When the heat transfer plate 303 is removed from the heat conduction groove of the heat transfer rack 201, the heat conduction groove of the heat transfer rack 201 will be shielded by the shielding frame 203, so that the heat in the storage side rack 302 can affect the heat transfer rack 201.
[0049] The storage side shelves 302 on both sides are connected to the two lifting plates 402 via the pull member 403. The connection points on both sides of the pull member 403 can rotate. The two lifting plates 402 are driven by the two lifting screws 404 respectively. The top of each of the two lifting screws 404 is fixed with an upper bevel gear 405. The two upper bevel gears 405 mesh with the bevel gears on both sides of the double-headed bevel gear shaft 406. The double-headed bevel gear shaft 406 is driven by the shaft drive mechanism 407. The shaft drive mechanism 407 is mainly composed of a gear transmission mechanism and a drive element. When the shaft drive mechanism 407 drives the double-headed bevel gear shaft 406 to rotate, the double-headed bevel gear shaft 406 can drive the lifting screws 404 on both sides to rotate through the cooperation of the upper bevel gears 405 on both sides. Finally, the rotation of the lifting screws 404 on both sides drives the lifting plates 402 on both sides.
[0050] When the lifting plate 402 moves, the pulling members 403 on both sides of the lifting plate 402 can pull the storage side racks 302 on both sides to move, so as to adjust the heat transfer plates 303 on both sides.
[0051] Preferably, the control component provided by the present invention further includes a guide bracket 601, a movable frame 602, a push screw 603, a push motor 604, and a sealing component. The sealing component includes a shielding bracket 701, a side gear platform 702, a mating gear 703, and a drive gear shaft 704. The sealing component also includes a sleeve gear 705, a rotating gear shaft 706, a connecting gear chain 707, and a rotating motor 708.
[0052] Furthermore, the guide bracket 601 is fixedly installed on the cooling box 102; the movable frame 602 is fixedly installed on one side of the partition frame 105 and slidably connected to the guide bracket 601; the push screw 603 is threadedly connected to the movable frame 602 and rotatably installed on the guide bracket 601; the output shaft of the push motor 604 is connected to the push screw 603, and the push motor 604 is fixedly installed on one side of the guide bracket 601; the sealing component is connected to the partition frame 105 and is used to adjust the structure of the partition frame 105.
[0053] In this embodiment, the guide bracket 601 is mounted on the cooling box 102. The guide bracket 601 has a sliding structure for engaging with the movable frame 602. The top of the movable frame 602 has a threaded hole for engaging with the push screw 603. The push screw 603 is driven by the push motor 604. When the push motor 604 drives the push screw 603 to rotate, the movable frame 602 can move under the drive of the push screw 603. Then, the movement of the movable frame 602 drives the partition frame 105 to move.
[0054] The size of the heating zone and cooling zone inside the cooling box 102 can be adjusted by sliding the partition frame 105. This allows the cooling capacity of the heating zone to be adjusted according to the different internal piping structures of the engine when preheating the engine before starting. This enables the coolant in the heating zone to quickly and centrally exchange heat and then be introduced into the corresponding pipes of the engine for preheating, thus avoiding an excessive amount of coolant that needs to be heated before preheating.
[0055] Furthermore, the shielding bracket 701 is slidably mounted on the partition frame 105; the side gear plate 702 is fixedly mounted on one side of the shielding bracket 701; the mating gear 703 meshes with the side gear plate 702 and is rotatably mounted inside the partition frame 105; the drive gear shaft 704 is rotatably mounted on the partition frame 105, and the gear on the drive gear shaft 704 meshes with the mating gear 703.
[0056] Furthermore, the sleeved gear 705 is fixedly mounted on the drive gear shaft 704; the rotating gear shaft 706 is rotatably mounted inside the movable frame 602; the connecting gear chain 707 is sleeved on both sides of the gears provided on the rotating gear shaft 706 and the sleeved gear 705; the output shaft of the rotating motor 708 is connected to the rotating gear shaft 706, and the rotating motor 708 is fixedly mounted on one side of the movable frame 602.
[0057] In this embodiment, during use, the partition frame 105 is provided with a corresponding conductive structure that cooperates with the shielding bracket 701. The shielding bracket 701 has a side gear platform 702 that cooperates with the mating gear 703. The mating gear 703 is connected to the drive gear shaft 704. The sleeve gear 705 is fixed on the shaft of the drive gear shaft 704. The sleeve gear 705 is connected to the gear of the rotating gear shaft 706 via the connecting gear chain 707. The rotating gear shaft 706 is driven by the rotating motor 708. When the rotating motor 708 drives the rotating gear shaft 706 to rotate, the connecting gear chain 707... The drive gear 705 and the drive gear shaft 704 will rotate, and the rotation of the drive gear shaft 704 will drive the mating gear 703 to rotate. In turn, the rotation of the mating gear 703 will drive the side gear platform 702 and the shielding bracket 701, so that the conduction structure of the partition frame 105 can be adjusted by the up and down movement of the shielding bracket 701. When the shielding bracket 701 moves down, the interior of the partition frame 105 will be separated from the heat generation area of the cooling box 102. When the shielding bracket 701 moves up, the partition frame 105 will be connected to the heat generation area of the cooling box 102.
[0058] When the coolant inside the cooling tank 102 heats up to a preset range as the engine continues to operate, the shielding bracket 701 on the partition frame 105 will divide the interior of the partition frame 105. Then, the semiconductor cooling plate 106 can cool the coolant in the areas on both sides of the cooling tank 102. At the same time, the interior of the partition frame 105 and the two storage side frames 302 connected to the interior of the partition frame 105 can also be heated by the heating end of the semiconductor cooling plate 106, so that the storage side frames 302 can absorb and store heat more stably.
