Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of energy storage liquid cooling auxiliary equipment, in particular to a top cover used in a liquid cooling module. Background Art
[0002] The existing top covers of liquid cooling modules mostly serve as protective shells, which play a role in protecting, flame retardant and pressure-proofing related modules. The existing top covers of liquid cooling modules are mostly shells with the same shape as the modules and with the opening facing downward. The shells are made of different materials according to different usage requirements. At the same time, an MSD (maintenance switch) installation slot is generally opened on the side. When in use, the top cover is buckled with the corresponding bottom shell and fixed with screws. However, the existing top covers have the following defects when in use: 1. The top covers of liquid cooling modules currently used in production have poor mechanical properties on the periphery where the screws are required due to their large size, which makes the top cover prone to cracking during the production and installation process; 2. Since there are many holes in the top cover, it takes a long time to align the holes one by one during the production and installation process, which is not conducive to the production efficiency of the workshop; 3. When installing MSD, a mounting plate pressure plate is required, which increases costs; 4. After buckling the top cover, the holes of the top cover and the MSD mounting plate are not easy to align, affecting production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above situation, in order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a top cover used in a liquid cooling module, which effectively solves the problem that the hole alignment of the existing top cover is time-consuming and labor-intensive during installation, affecting production efficiency.
[0004] The technical solution is that the utility model includes a top cover with an opening facing downward, characterized in that an annular fixing plate is provided at the lower end of the top cover, a plurality of vertical axial holes are provided on the fixing plate, and the holes are unequally distributed, a mounting groove is provided at the front end of the top cover, and a plurality of vertical axial positioning columns are provided at the lower end of the fixing plate.
[0005] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are: 1. It can enhance the mechanical properties of the fixing plate to prevent the fixing plate and the top cover from being cracked due to stress when the screws are fixed; 2. It can realize rapid positioning when the top cover and the bottom shell are buckled, so the operator does not need to align and position repeatedly, which is easy to operate, saving time and effort; 3. It can facilitate the installation of MSD without the need for additional parts, saving materials; 4. It can be quickly aligned when installing MSD, which is convenient for installation; 5. The unequal distribution of the threaded holes can make the screws avoid related electrical components when installing the top cover, and the position distribution is more reasonable.

[0012] The specific implementation of the utility model is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0013] Depend on Figures 1 to 6 The top cover 1 includes a top cover 1 with an opening facing downward, characterized in that an annular fixing plate 2 is provided at the lower end of the top cover 1, a plurality of vertical axial hole positions 3 are provided on the fixing plate 2, and the hole positions 3 are unequally distributed, a mounting groove 5 is provided at the front end of the top cover 1, and a plurality of vertical axial positioning columns 6 are provided at the lower end of the fixing plate 2 in a rectangular distribution.
[0014] In order to facilitate the quick installation of the MSD, a ring-shaped and forwardly protruding pressing plate glue 7 is provided in the installation groove 5 , and a plurality of positioning holes 8 are formed on the pressing plate glue 7 .
[0015] In order to keep the screws away from related electrical components during installation, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 4 are provided on the fixing plate 2 .
[0016] In order to increase the lateral strength of the top cover 1 , a plurality of lateral reinforcing plates are provided on the top cover 1 .
[0017] In order to save materials, the material of the pressing plate glue 7 is the same as that of the top cover 1, both of which are plastic.
[0018] In order to facilitate mold repair, the top cover 1 and the fixing plate 2 are both treated with glue during production.
[0019] In order to increase the vertical strength, the top cover 1 is provided with a plurality of vertical reinforcement plates.
[0020] In order to ensure the overall strength, the pressing plate glue 7 and the top cover 1 are integrally formed during production.
[0021] In order to facilitate the installation of other electrical components besides the MSD, a reserved groove that runs through from front to back is opened on the right side of the front end of the top cover 1.
[0022] In order to facilitate installation, the front end of the top cover 1 is provided with a plurality of threaded holes connected with the reserved grooves.
[0023] When the utility model is in use, the liquid cooling module is first placed in the bottom shell matched with the top cover 1, and then the top cover 1 is taken and buckled with the bottom shell. When buckling, the four positioning columns 6 are respectively inserted into the corresponding holes on the bottom shell to limit the position of the top cover 1 relative to the bottom shell to prevent misalignment when the screws are fixed. At this time, the operator can fix the top cover 1 and the bottom shell through the holes 3, turn the screws, and insert the screws through the holes 3 into the relevant holes of the bottom shell to achieve fixation, prevent the top cover 1 from falling off from the bottom shell during use, and cause damage to the module therein. The reinforcing ribs 4 strengthen the mechanical properties of the fixing plate 2 to prevent the top cover 1 from falling off from the bottom shell during tightening. Stress concentration occurs during fixing, thereby avoiding the top cover 1 from cracking. When tightening the screws, due to the limitation of the positioning column 6, the hole positions on the top cover 1 always correspond to the hole positions on the bottom shell during the whole process, and no misalignment occurs. Therefore, the operator does not need to repeatedly align the hole positions 3. Compared with the traditional top cover 1 fixation without the positioning column 6, the operation is simple, the shell is quickly aligned, the entire installation time is shortened, and the efficiency is improved. When installing the MSD, it is only necessary to align the reserved installation holes on the MSD with the multiple positioning holes 8 to fix them with the screws, which has the same function as the positioning column 6 on the above-mentioned top cover;
[0024] It is convenient for operators to quickly position and tighten, and there is no need to spend a lot of time and energy on alignment operations. At the same time, since the pressure plate glue 7 has been designed on the production mold, it will be produced in one piece with the top cover 1. No additional pressure plate is required when installing MSD, saving materials. When electrical components other than MSD need to be installed, the relevant electrical components are inserted into the reserved slots and electrically connected to the modules inside them, and then they are quickly positioned and installed through bolts and threaded holes. When there is a problem with the module inside it and it needs to be repaired, the screws in the holes 3 are loosened and removed one by one, and multiple positioning columns 6 are pulled out from the corresponding holes on the bottom shell to release the positioning, and then the top cover 1 can be removed from the bottom shell. The same is true when removing MSD. The screws are removed from the positioning holes 8, and the MSD module can be removed from the pressure plate glue.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the reinforcing ribs provided can strengthen the mechanical properties of the fixing plate, and prevent the fixing plate and the top cover from being cracked due to stress when the screws are fixed; the positioning columns provided can realize quick positioning when the top cover and the bottom shell are buckled, so there is no need for the operator to repeatedly align and position, the operation is simple, time-saving and labor-saving; the pressure plate glue provided can facilitate the installation of the MSD, and no additional parts are required, saving materials; the positioning holes provided can be quickly aligned when installing the MSD, which is convenient for installation; the structure is simple, the concept is novel, it is easy to use, and it is highly practical.
