Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of liquid cooling and heat dissipation, in particular to a heat dissipation mechanism for UPS power supply equipment. Background Art

[0002] UPS, or uninterruptible power supply, is a system device that connects batteries, mostly lead-acid maintenance-free batteries, to the host, and converts direct current into AC power through module circuits such as the host inverter. Traditional UPS uninterruptible power supplies will generate more heat during use and dissipate heat through air cooling, but the air cooling effect is effective. The application number is 201920557561X, and the patent name is a UPS with good heat dissipation effect. The patent discloses the technology of using liquid cooling (water cooling) to assist in heat dissipation of UPS power supply. However, most liquid cooling solutions do not involve flow regulation to control the liquid cooling heat dissipation intensity, because the heat dissipation method for long-term high-load working operation should be different from the heat dissipation method for normal operation without high load. Therefore, it is very necessary for the liquid cooling solution to adjust the water flow to adapt to a variety of scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0008] In the above scheme, water needs to flow from one end of the branch channel to the other end through the liquid flow opening. Rotating the rotating block can drive the flow adjustment knob to rotate, and then rotate the direction of the liquid flow opening, thereby changing the opening cross-sectional size of the liquid flow opening relative to the branch channel, thereby adjusting the water flow, just like a water pipe ball valve. Of course, in the present application, the part of the flow adjustment knob with the liquid flow opening can also be designed to be spherical.

[0009] In one embodiment, the liquid flow opening is located at the lower part of the flow regulating knob, the upper part of the flow regulating knob is provided with a groove, and the outer part of the groove is provided with a sealing ring.

[0011] In one embodiment, the cross-section of the liquid flow opening is rectangular, and the center line of the liquid flow opening is colinear with the center axis of the branch channel.

[0012] In one embodiment, the rotating block is a gear, and at least one group of synchronous drive components is arranged on the upper part of the liquid cooling plate. The synchronous drive component includes a driving wheel and a rack matching the driving wheel, and the rotating block corresponding to at least part of the branch channels matches the rack.

[0013] In the above scheme, the synchronous drive assembly can drive the rotating block to rotate by moving the rack, thereby changing the opening cross-section size of the flow regulating knob relative to the branch channel, thereby adjusting the water flow.

[0014] In one embodiment, the flow adjustment knobs on the branch channels are divided into two groups and distributed on two straight lines, two groups of synchronous drive assemblies are arranged on the upper part of the liquid cooling plate, and the two racks are respectively arranged on the two straight lines and respectively cooperate with the corresponding flow adjustment knobs.

[0015] In the above scheme, two sets of synchronous drive components respectively control the rotation of all flow adjustment knobs, and the two sets of synchronous drive components can still be controlled independently. Therefore, compared with only one set that makes all flow adjustment knobs adjusted synchronously, the method of controlling flow is more flexible and diverse, and the scope of application of adjustment is improved.

[0016] In one embodiment, the flow adjustment knobs on adjacent branch channels are respectively distributed on different straight lines.

[0017] In the above scheme, the flow regulating knobs on the same straight line are all located on the branch channel separated by another branch channel.

[0018] In one embodiment, the synchronous drive assembly includes a drive motor connected to the drive wheel.

[0019] In the above solution, the driving wheel is electrically controlled to rotate via a driving motor. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
