Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hose fixing, and particularly relates to a fixing tool for enlarging the inner diameter of a liquid-cooled hose. Background Art
[0002] A liquid-cooled pipeline is a device for heat dissipation, mainly used to transfer heat from a heat source (such as a computer chip, an engine, etc.) to a cooling device (such as a radiator, a cooling tower, etc.). It usually consists of pipelines, pumps, radiators, and coolers. The working principle of the liquid-cooled pipeline is that a pump extracts a coolant (usually water or a special cooling medium) from the cooling device, then passes through the heat source, absorbs the heat, and flows back to the cooling device for heat dissipation. The flow of the coolant produces direct contact with the heat source, improving the heat transfer efficiency. The liquid-cooled pipeline usually uses metal pipelines (such as copper, aluminum) and hoses to transport the coolant. The metal pipeline has good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance, and can effectively transfer heat to the radiator. The hose is used to connect different pipeline components, has flexibility and good sealing performance, and is convenient for installation and maintenance. Before the liquid-cooled hose is clamped with a union, it is necessary to enlarge the mouth to facilitate the insertion of the union because the union has a flange with a relatively large diameter.
[0003] In the prior art, a cross-slot manual tool is usually processed to enlarge the hose. One hand holds the hose and the other hand holds the tool. If a person's strength is not enough, it cannot be operated, and the operation will be relatively slow. Content of the Utility Model
