DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0025] Example

[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the utility model discloses a liquid cooling system that can be quickly plugged in and out, including a water cooling component 1 and a water cooling quick connector 2. The water cooling component 1 includes a water drain 11, a liquid storage tank 12 and a water pipe 13. The liquid storage tank 12 is arranged at one end of the water drain 11 and communicates with the water drain 11; one end of the water pipe 13 is connected to the liquid storage tank 12; the water cooling quick connector 2 includes a hardware connection part 21 and a plug-in part 22 connected to the hardware connection part 21, the hardware connection part 21 is used to communicate with external hardware; the plug-in part 22 is used to plug in with the other end of the water pipe 13. The water cooling quick connector 2 is a self-locking quick connector. When the water pipe 13 is pulled out from the plug-in part 22, the water cooling quick connector 2 will cut off the water path, thereby realizing the function of quick plugging and unplugging.

[0027] Furthermore, the liquid storage tank 12 is provided with a pipe fixing joint 14 communicating with the inside of the liquid storage tank 12, and one end of the water pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the pipe fixing joint 14. The pipe fixing joint 14 is a self-locking quick joint, and when the water pipe 13 is pulled out of the pipe fixing joint 14, the pipe fixing joint 14 will cut off the water path, so that the liquid inside the liquid storage tank 12 cannot overflow through the pipe fixing joint 14, thereby realizing the needs of consumers to install by themselves.

[0028] Furthermore, the number of the water-cooling quick connector 2, the water pipe 13 and the pipe fixed connector 14 are all two, the liquid storage tank 12 is provided with two liquid through ports 15, the pipe fixed connector 14 is arranged at the liquid through ports 15 and communicates with the inner cavity of the liquid storage tank 12, and the pipe fixed connector 14 is communicated with the water-cooling quick connector 2 via the corresponding water pipe 13. The coolant enters and exits the liquid storage tank 12 through the liquid through ports 15, and the water-cooling quick connector 2, the water pipe 13 and the pipe fixed connector 14 are used in combination to achieve quick plugging and unplugging, and facilitate separate testing and replacement of the water cooling component 1.

[0029] Furthermore, an outer peripheral surface of the hardware connection part 21 is provided with an external thread, and the hardware connection part 21 is used for threaded connection with external hardware.

[0030] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the plug-in portion 22 matches the inner diameter of the water pipe 13, and the plug-in portion 22 is used to connect with the water pipe 13. Since the outer diameter of the plug-in portion 22 matches the inner diameter of the water pipe 13, the plug-in portion 22 is inserted into the water pipe 13, and after the water-cooling quick connector 2 is connected to the water pipe 13, the water pipe 13 is not easy to fall off from the water-cooling quick connector 2, thereby avoiding leakage of liquid.

[0031] Furthermore, the water cooling assembly 1 also includes a circulation box 16, a water pump 17 and several groups of fins 18. The circulation box 16 is arranged at the other end of the water drain 11 and is connected to the water drain 11. The water pump 17 is connected to the circulation box 16, and several groups of fins 18 are arranged on the water drain 11.

[0032] Furthermore, the fins 18 are wavy. The fins 18 are wavy, which can increase the contact area between the air and the fins 18 and improve the heat exchange efficiency. On the other hand, it can reduce the accumulation of dust on the fins 18. The wavy shape has a more stable structural strength than the flat shape, which can extend the service life of the liquid cooling system.

[0033] Furthermore, the liquid cooling system further includes a fan 3, which is disposed on one side of the water cooling component 1. The air outlet of the fan 3 faces the fins 18, and the cold air enters the fan 3 from the air inlet of the fan 3. Under the action of the fan 3, the cold air blows from the air outlet to the fins 18, passes through a plurality of groups of fins 18 and absorbs the heat of the fins 18. The cold air absorbs the heat and becomes hot air, and is finally discharged into the atmosphere, which further cools the air.

[0034] The external hardware may be computer hardware, such as a graphics card, a CPU, etc. In this embodiment, the external hardware is a graphics card 4; the graphics card 4 is provided with a fixing seat 41 and a condensation pipe 42, one end of the fixing seat 41 is threadedly connected to the hardware connection part 2, and the other end of the fixing seat 41 is connected to the condensation pipe 42, the inner circumferential surface of the connection end of the fixing seat 41 and the hardware connection part 2 is provided with an internal thread matching the hardware connection part 21, and the connecting end of the fixing seat 41 and the condensation pipe 42 is provided with a through hole. The condensation pipe 42 is provided at the other end of the graphics card 4 and does not contact the internal components of the graphics card 4.

[0035] Furthermore, the water-cooling quick connector 2 also includes a stopper located between the hardware connection part 21 and the plug-in part 22, and the stopper includes a hardware stopper end 23 and a pipe stopper end 24 connected to the hardware stopper end 23; the hardware stopper end 23 is connected to the hardware connection part 21, and the longitudinal cross-sectional area of ​​the hardware stopper end 23 is larger than the longitudinal cross-sectional area of ​​the hardware connection part 21; the pipe stopper end 24 is connected to the plug-in part 22 and is used to abut against one end of the water pipe 13; the longitudinal cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe stopper end 24 is larger than the longitudinal cross-sectional area of ​​the water pipe 13. The longitudinal cross-sectional area of ​​the water pipe 13 refers to the area formed by the outer wall of the water pipe 13. When the water-cooling quick connector 2 is in use, after the hardware connection part 21 is threadedly connected to the external hardware such as the fixing seat 41 of the graphics card 4, one end of the fixing seat 41 abuts against the hardware stop end 23, the connection is firm and helps prevent leakage; after the plug-in part 22 is plugged into one end of the water pipe 13, one end of the water pipe 13 abuts against the pipe mouth stop end 24, preventing leakage and facilitating assembly.

[0036] After the consumer determines the installation position of each component, first inject coolant into the liquid storage tank 12, and then connect one end of the water pipe 13 of appropriate length to the liquid port 15 through the pipe fixing joint 14, and the other end of the water pipe 13 is connected to the plug-in part 22 of the water cooling quick connector 2. The hardware connection part 21 of the water cooling quick connector 2 is threadedly connected to the fixing seat 41 of the graphics card 4, so that the condensation pipe 42 forms a liquid cooling circulation passage with the liquid cooling component 1 through the water pipe 13.

[0037] The liquid cooling heat dissipation process in this embodiment is as follows: 1) The coolant in the liquid storage tank 12 enters and exits the liquid storage tank 12 through the liquid inlet 15, wherein the coolant entering the liquid storage tank 12 passes through the water drain 11 and the circulation box 16 in turn, and the fan 3 blows away a large amount of heat. The cooled coolant passes through the water drain 11 and the liquid storage tank 12 again through the water pump 17 to leave the water cooling component 1; 2) The coolant leaving the water cooling component 1 enters the condensation pipe 42 through the water pipe 13. Since the coolant has a large specific heat capacity, it takes away a large amount of heat after passing through the graphics card 4, thereby playing a cooling role.

[0038] When the liquid cooling system of the present invention is applied to external hardware such as a computer, the components of the water cooling assembly 1 such as the water drain 11, the liquid storage tank 12 and the water pipe 13 can be assembled into a first assembly. Figure 1 As shown, the water pipe 13 includes a fixed end connected to the liquid storage tank 12 and a plug-in end for plugging with the water cooling quick connector 2; the water cooling quick connector 2 is fixedly connected to the condensation pipe 42 of the computer hardware such as the graphics card 4 to form a second assembly, such as Figure 4When the computer needs to be transported, the first assembly and the second assembly are packaged separately; when the product needs to be used, the plug-in portion 22 of the water-cooling quick connector 2 in the second assembly is quickly plugged into the plug-in end of the water pipe 13; when the device needs to be disassembled for transportation or disassembled for placement, the plug-in portion 22 of the water-cooling quick connector 2 can be directly pulled out from the plug-in end of the water pipe 13, thereby realizing the quick plug-in and pull-out of the water-cooling assembly 1 and the computer hardware, which is convenient for transportation and storage, and quick and easy to assemble and disassemble.
