Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of radiator dust cleaning, in particular to an automobile radiator with a self-contained dust cleaning structure. Background Art
[0002] The car radiator consists of three parts: the water inlet chamber, the water outlet chamber and the radiator core. The coolant flows in the radiator core, and the air passes outside the radiator. The hot coolant cools down due to the heat dissipation to the air, and the cold air heats up due to the heat dissipated by the coolant. Existing radiators mostly use fin structures. Due to the influence of external air, the heat dissipation fins often carry dust, thereby reducing the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0003] In the prior art, dust on the cooling fins is cleaned by another motor controlling a cleaning brush. The cooling fins have a vertical portion and a horizontal portion. After cleaning part of the horizontal portion, the vertical portion will be encountered. At this time, the brush directly brushes over it, which will wear out the vertical portion after a long time. In addition, this cleaning method is not automatic enough and needs to be controlled separately. Therefore, there is room for further improvement in the cleaning method.
