[0026] Example:

[0027] Reference Figure 1-7A VPX chassis structure with combined air cooling and liquid cooling comprises a chassis body 100 and a VPX board module 200 connected to the chassis body 100. The main structure of the board module 200 adopts a temperature averaging plate design. When the board is working, the temperature averaging plate structure can prevent heat accumulation at the heat source module and quickly diffuse it to the guide rails on both sides. Then, the heat is taken away by the fluid inside the liquid cooling slots 402 on both sides. The chassis body 100 also includes a heat exchanger 402 disposed on both sides for sending external air into the chassis to cool the board module. The air cooling assembly 300 is used to dissipate heat from the board module 200 and discharge the hot air inside the chassis to achieve heat dissipation for the board module 200, the heat dissipation teeth 201 fixedly arranged on the top of the VPX board module 200, and the liquid cooling assembly 400 is connected to the inside of the chassis body 100 and is located on both sides of the VPX board module 200, wherein the two sides of the chassis body 100 are respectively provided with an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102 that match the air cooling assembly 300, and the liquid cooling assembly 400 is provided with a gas supply that enters through the air inlet 101 and passes through the outlet The air outlet 102 is used to discharge the air from the inside of the chassis body 100 to improve the heat dissipation effect through the ventilation window 401. Specifically, when in use, the air cooling components 300 arranged on both sides of the chassis body 100 can timely introduce external air into the chassis, and through the ventilation windows 401 arranged on the liquid cooling components 400, the air circulation inside the chassis can be effectively improved to timely discharge the heat inside the chassis from the inside of the chassis body 100, thereby achieving a good air cooling effect. The heat dissipation teeth 201 arranged in cooperation with the arrangement can further guide the heat generated by the board module 200 for heat dissipation, and take away part of the heat through the arranged liquid cooling components 400. At the same time, the ventilation windows 401 and the air cooling components 300 can make the air entering the chassis body 100 flow through the heat dissipation teeth 201, effectively taking away the heat on the heat dissipation teeth 201, achieving a good heat dissipation effect inside the chassis, effectively reducing the temperature rise of the board module 200, so that the internal components of the board module 200 are always within the working temperature range, avoiding affecting the use and life of the equipment.

[0028] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The heat dissipation teeth 201 are arranged in an array parallel to the gas flow direction on the top of the VPX board module 200. The heat dissipation teeth 201 are arranged parallel to the gas flow direction. Therefore, under the action of the heat dissipation fan 301, the ventilation window 401 is set, so that the air entering the box body can flow over the surface of the heat dissipation teeth 201, further taking away the heat of the board module 200 and reducing the temperature rise of the board module 200.

[0029] Reference Figure 1-4The air cooling component 300 is a heat dissipation fan 301 installed inside the chassis body 100 and corresponding to the air inlet 101 and the air outlet 102 respectively. The heat dissipation fan 301 installed at the air inlet 101 can introduce air outside the chassis into the chassis for air cooling and heat dissipation. The heat dissipation fan 301 located at the air outlet 102 can discharge the heat generated by the board module 200 inside the chassis, effectively improving the circulation of the air inside the chassis, and further improving the heat dissipation effect on the board module 200.

[0030] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The liquid cooling component 400 includes a liquid cooling slot 402 inserted into the chassis body 100, a liquid cooling channel 403 opened in the liquid cooling slot 402, and a brazing cover plate 404 welded on the outside of the liquid cooling channel 403 to form a sealed channel cavity, wherein the ventilation windows 401 are arranged in several groups along the liquid cooling slot 402 array and parallel to the gas flow direction. When in use, liquid cooling liquid is injected into the channel cavity. While the liquid cooling liquid takes away the heat generated by the board module 200, the ventilation windows 401 are arranged. Under the action of the wind force of the heat dissipation fan 301, the cold air outside the chassis body 100 can be introduced into the interior thereof to cool the board module 200, and at the same time, the air entering the interior of the chassis can flow through the surface of the heat dissipation teeth 201, further taking away the heat of the board module 200, reducing the temperature rise of the board module 200, so that the internal components of the board module 200 are always within the working temperature range, which will not affect the use and life of the equipment.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-3 Two liquid cooling joints 405 connected to the liquid cooling channel 403 and used for liquid inlet and liquid outlet are respectively arranged at the top of the liquid cooling slot 402. The two liquid cooling joints 405 pass through the chassis body 100 and extend upward.

[0032] The chassis body 100 is provided with a card slot 103 that matches the liquid cooling connector 405. When in use, liquid cooling liquid is injected through the liquid cooling connector 405 at the inlet and flows out through the liquid cooling connector 405 at the outlet, forming a circulating flow. When it circulates, it can take away the heat generated by the board module 200 to achieve the effect of heat dissipation.

[0033] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The liquid cooling channel 403 is arranged in an S-shaped rotation and has a smooth transition at the corner. The liquid cooling channel 403 is arranged in an S-shaped rotation so that the liquid cooling liquid circulates through the liquid cooling joint 405 to achieve a good heat dissipation effect. Furthermore, the liquid cooling channel 403 has a smooth transition at the corner, which can reduce the internal fluid resistance.

[0034] Specifically, when the VPX chassis structure with combined air cooling and liquid cooling is in use: when the board is working, the temperature plate structure can prevent heat accumulation at the heat source module, and quickly diffuse the heat to the guide rails on both sides, and then the heat is taken away by the fluid inside the liquid cooling slots 402 on both sides. The heat dissipation teeth 201 provided in combination can further guide the heat generated by the board module 200 for heat dissipation. At the same time, the air outside the chassis body 100 is introduced into the chassis body for air cooling through the provided cooling fan 301. The air entering the chassis body 100 through the provided ventilation window 401 can improve The air flows between the liquid cooling slots 402 set on both sides of the board module 200, and is quickly discharged from the chassis body 100 through the heat dissipation fan 301, effectively improving the air circulation inside the chassis and timely discharging the internal heat of the chassis from the inside of the chassis body 100, thereby achieving a good air cooling effect. Furthermore, through the set ventilation windows 401, the air entering the interior of the chassis can flow over the surface of the heat dissipation teeth 201, further taking away the heat of the board module 200, reducing the temperature rise of the board module 200, and making the internal components of the board module 200 always within the operating temperature range, avoiding affecting the use and life of the equipment.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
