The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0029] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meanings as commonly understood by ordinary technicians in the technical field to which this application belongs.
[0030] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the directional words used, such as "up, down, top, bottom", usually refer to the directions shown in the drawings, or to the components themselves in the vertical, perpendicular or gravity directions; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself, but the above-mentioned directional words are not used to limit the present invention. Example
[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a chip liquid cooling assembly device includes a cold plate composed of an upper cold plate 1 and a lower cold plate 2, wherein the lower cold plate 2 is sealed and arranged below the upper cold plate 1 and encloses to form a cooling cavity, and the upper cold plate 1 is provided with a refrigerant inlet 3 and a refrigerant outlet 4 which are connected to the cooling cavity. A water inlet nozzle 5 is sealed and arranged at the refrigerant inlet 3, and a water outlet nozzle 6 is sealed and arranged at the refrigerant outlet 4. In this embodiment, the water inlet nozzle 5 and the water outlet nozzle 6 have the same structure and are collectively referred to as nozzles. The above-mentioned water inlet nozzle 5 and the water outlet nozzle 6 are welded and fixed on the upper cold plate 1 along a circle around their outer periphery, so that the water inlet nozzle 5 and the water outlet nozzle 6 are sealed and arranged on the upper cold plate 1. Since the water inlet nozzle 5 and the water outlet nozzle 6 are fixed to the upper cold plate 1 in the form of post-assembly, the positions of the liquid inlet end and the liquid outlet end of the refrigerant medium (cooling liquid) can be adjusted according to actual conditions before welding, so that it can meet the requirements of different working conditions.
[0032] The water nozzle is provided with a pipeline installation structure for connecting with an external pipeline so that the pipeline is connected with the cooling cavity, so that the refrigerant (cooling liquid) in the pipeline can enter the cooling cavity for cooling and take away the heat.
[0033] In order to improve the heat dissipation capacity of the cold plate to the chip in this embodiment, a heat dissipation component is arranged in the cooling cavity, and the heat dissipation component is composed of a plurality of PIN columns 7. The PIN columns 7 are centrally arranged on the lower cold plate 2, and the upper cold plate 1 is stamped to form the cooling cavity. When the lower cold plate 2 is sealed on the upper cold plate 1 by welding, the PIN columns 7 all fall into the cooling cavity.
[0034] Furthermore, the PIN column 7 and the lower cold plate 2 are formed by an integrated forging process, and the PIN column is forged on the side of the lower cold plate 2. The gaps between two adjacent PIN columns 7 are distributed throughout the cooling cavity, thereby maximizing the heat transfer from the chip 8 to the coolant in the cooling cavity, and quickly achieving chip cooling.
[0035] Preferably, the PIN column 7 in this embodiment is a cylindrical structure, and each of the PIN columns 7 is identical and equidistant between adjacent ones.
[0036] Of course, in addition to being arranged on the lower cold plate 2, the PIN column 7 can also be arranged in the cooling cavity of the upper cold plate 1. Although its heat conduction effect is worse than that of being fixed on the lower cold plate 2, and it cannot quickly conduct the heat on the chip, it can also conduct the heat on the cold plate to the coolant medium in the cooling cavity to achieve chip cooling.
[0037] In actual application, the chip 8 is mounted on the PCB board 9 and is a major heat source on the PCB board 9. By attaching the cold plate composed of the upper cold plate 1 and the lower cold plate 2 to the upper end surface of the chip 8, the heat of the chip 8 is transferred to the lower cold plate, and the heat is quickly exchanged with the cold medium in the cooling chamber through the PIN column 7, so as to cool the chip 8.
[0038] In this embodiment, the cooling cavity is formed by stamping in the middle of the upper cold plate 1, and the refrigerant inlet 3 and the refrigerant outlet 4 are distributed on both sides of the cooling cavity. When the lower cold plate 2 is arranged on the upper cold plate 1, the cooling cavity 3 is covered, and the lower cold plate 2 is sealed on the upper cold plate 1 by welding.
[0039] Furthermore, the lower cold plate 2 may be welded to the upper cold plate 1 by brazing to achieve a sealed welding of the two, thereby ensuring that the coolant in the cooling cavity 3 does not escape from the gap between the lower cold plate 2 and the upper cold plate 1 .
[0040] The cold plate located at the periphery of the cooling chamber is detachably provided with a fastener assembly 10, on which a fastener nut 101 is provided, and the cold plate is provided with a first channel vertically connected to the fastener nut 101. The fastener nut 101 can correspond to the installation hole size of most server motherboards on the market, and the staff can manually operate to lock the fastener nut 101 into the installation hole of the server motherboard.
[0041] In this embodiment, there are four clip assemblies 10 distributed at the four corners of the cold plate, which are compatible with most server motherboard applications on the market.
[0042] The clip assembly 10 in this embodiment can be detachably mounted on the cold plate, so as to realize quick assembly or disassembly of the clip assembly 10. Figure 4 As shown, the fastener assembly 10 includes a fastener seat 102, a fastener nut 101 is fixedly arranged on the fastener seat 102, and a fastener spring 103 for locking the fastener seat to the cold plate is arranged on the fastener seat 102. Correspondingly, a avoidance groove for avoiding the ejector pin 104 on the fastener seat is arranged on the cold plate, and a clamping groove for clamping the fastener spring 103 is arranged on the cold plate.
[0043] The clip assembly 10 in this embodiment is arranged at the four corners of the cold plate. Specifically, gaskets 11 are pre-placed at the four corners of the cold plate, the clip assembly 10 is installed on the gaskets 11, and the clip seat 102 and the gasket 11 are fixed to the cold plate by the clip spring 103.
[0044] In this embodiment, the pipeline connected to the water nozzle can be a hose or a hard pipe, depending on actual needs.
[0045] like Figure 1 The pipe installation structure is used to connect with the hose. Specifically, the pipe installation structure includes a locking nut 12 and a hose connector 13, one end of the hose connector 13 is locked to the interface of the faucet, the locking nut 12 is sleeved on the hose, one end of the hose is clamped to the hose connector, and the locking nut 12 is threadedly connected to the hose connector 13 to fix the hose on the faucet.
[0046] Preferably, the hose connector 13 can be fixed on the faucet by welding.
[0047] like Figure 3 The pipe installation structure is used to connect with a hard pipe. Specifically, the pipe installation structure includes a threaded joint 14, a seal 15 and a locking nut 16. One end of the threaded joint 14 is connected to the interface of the faucet. The locking nut 16 is sleeved on a hard pipe 17. One end of the hard pipe 17 is inserted into the seal 15. The seal 15 is placed on the other end of the threaded joint 14. The locking nut 16 is threadedly connected to the threaded joint 14 and fixes the hard pipe on the faucet.
[0048] The outer surfaces of the locking nuts 16 and 12 are both provided with knurling to facilitate the knob operation of the staff.
[0049] Preferably, a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the threaded joint 14 and the water nozzle, and the sealing ring is an "O"-shaped sealing ring to enhance the sealing performance between the two.
[0050] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0051] By adopting a double-piece cold plate structure, the lower cold plate close to the chip adopts an integrated forging process, and the inner side is forged into a circular PIN column, which is densely arranged in combination with the liquid flow channel. The other upper cold plate adopts an integrated stamping process to form an upward convex shape in the middle. The upper and lower cold plates are sealed by welding to form a cavity inside, thereby realizing a circulation channel for the liquid; the overall volume of the device is reduced while achieving chip cooling and heat dissipation.
[0052] The upper cold plate is reserved for the position of the water nozzle for the inlet and outlet of the liquid.
