Description
Technical Field

A pressure relief component 11 is arranged at the bottom of the base 1, which is connected to the heat-conducting chamber at the bottom layer on the right side. The heat-conducting medium 7 on both sides of the first partition 8 is circulated in each heat-conducting chamber in sequence through the expansion and contraction effect of the expansion valve group 10, thereby increasing the heat transfer efficiency of the heat-conducting medium 7.
[0024] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first partition 8 is a trapezoidal structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The first partition 8 is provided with a plurality of through holes 81 for the spiral tube 6 to pass through, and a rubber ring 82 sleeved on the outside of the spiral tube 6 is fixed in the through hole 81. The top of the first partition 8 is provided with a first through hole 83 that connects the topmost heat-conducting chambers on both sides, which is used to allow the heat-conducting medium 7 in the topmost heat-conducting chamber on the left to pass into the topmost heat-conducting chamber on the right. The bottom of the first partition 8 is provided with a second through hole 84 that connects the bottommost heat-conducting chambers on both sides, and a third one-way valve 85 is arranged in the second through hole 84.

The heat-conducting medium 7 temporarily stored in the expansion ball 112 can be introduced into the heat-conducting chamber of the bottom layer on the right side again due to the elastic contraction of the expansion ball 112. The heat-conducting medium 7 in the heat-conducting chamber of the bottom layer on the right side can be introduced into the heat-conducting chamber of the top layer on the left side through the third one-way valve 85 on the second through hole 84, thereby realizing the circulation of the heat-conducting medium 7 in the greased column 5 through the expansion and contraction effect of the expansion airbag 102.
