Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of touch screens, and particularly relates to a heat dissipation enhancement structure for a touch screen module. Background Art

[0002] With the popularization of electronic products and the progress of technology, touch screens have become one of the core components of many intelligent devices. However, when a touch screen operates for a long time or performs complex tasks, it is prone to generate a large amount of heat. If not effectively managed, this heat may cause a decline in the performance of the touch screen, a shortening of its service life, or even a malfunction.

[0003] Currently, most common touch screen devices on the market dissipate heat by natural cooling, that is, relying on the heat sinks of the touch screen itself or the surface of the housing to dissipate heat. This method can meet the requirements during low-load operation, but in the case of high load or long-term use, the heat dissipation effect is often not satisfactory.

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the utility model aims to provide a heat dissipation enhancement structure for a touch screen module with higher heat dissipation efficiency, better user experience, longer device life, and lower maintenance cost. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0006] The utility model is a heat dissipation enhancement structure for a touch screen module, including a frame, and a touch screen component movably arranged inside the frame. The frame includes an outer frame, a limiting member integrally fixed at the inner end corners of the outer frame, and a notch recessed in the middle position of the outer frame;

[0007] The touch screen component includes a housing, a touch screen body embedded inside the housing, a metal heat absorption net fixed at the inner wall of the back of the housing, a heat dissipation area integrally extending at the back of the housing, a heat dissipation fan assembled inside the heat dissipation area, and a support member movably connected to the edge of the back of the housing through a shaft member.

[0008] The utility model is further arranged such that the lower part of the housing is movably connected to the inner side of the end of the outer frame through a shaft member, and speakers are symmetrically arranged on the lower side surface of the housing.

[0009] The utility model is further arranged such that an interface area is integrally provided at the middle position of the top of the housing, and the interface area matches the size of the notch.

[0010] The utility model is further arranged such that the metal heat absorption net is located below the touch screen body, and the metal heat absorption net separates the inner chamber of the housing from the inner chamber of the heat dissipation area. The metal heat absorption net is a uniformly hollow structure.

[0011] The present utility model is further configured such that continuous protrusions are provided inside the support member, and the lower end of the support member is matched with continuous grooves provided on the upper side of the limiting member.

[0012] The present utility model is further configured such that a temperature sensing element is provided on the periphery of the touch screen body, and the temperature sensing element and a heat dissipation fan form an automatic heat dissipation system.

[0013] The present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The present utility model effectively absorbs and quickly dissipates the heat generated by the touch screen assembly during operation by adopting an automatic heat dissipation system composed of a metal heat absorption net and a heat dissipation fan, thereby avoiding performance degradation or damage caused by overheating. The hollow structure of the metal heat absorption net increases air circulation, which helps to improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0015] 2. By effectively controlling the temperature of the touch screen assembly, the present utility model can reduce the damage to the touch screen body and other electronic components caused by high temperature, thereby extending the service life of the entire device. The automatic startup mechanism of the heat dissipation fan can be intelligently adjusted according to the actual temperature change, which not only ensures the heat dissipation effect but also avoids unnecessary noise interference, improving the user experience. The design of the support member allows the user to adjust the screen angle according to needs, improving the flexibility and comfort of use. The compact frame and touch screen assembly minimize the space occupied by the entire device, making it suitable for various use environments, especially application scenarios with limited space.

[0016] Of course, it is not necessary for any product implementing the present utility model to achieve all the above-mentioned advantages simultaneously. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] Embodiment

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present invention is a heat dissipation enhancement structure for a touch screen module, including a frame 1 and a touch screen assembly 2 movably disposed inside the frame 1. The frame 1 includes an outer frame 11, a limiting member 12 integrally fixed at the inner corner of the outer frame 11, and a notch 13 recessed in the middle of the outer frame 11; the touch screen assembly 2 includes a housing 21, a touch screen body 23 embedded inside the housing 21, a metal heat absorption net 25 fixed to the inner wall of the back of the housing 21, a heat dissipation area 27 integrally extending from the back of the housing 21, a heat dissipation fan 28 assembled inside the heat dissipation area 27, and a support member 24 movably connected to the side of the back of the housing 21 through a shaft member;

[0027] This technical solution not only improves the heat dissipation capacity of the touch screen device, but also enhances the portability and use comfort of the device through the adjustable support member 24. The specific description of this technical solution is as follows:

[0028] The outer frame 11 is the peripheral frame of the entire structure, which plays a role in fixing and protecting the touch screen assembly 2. The limiting member 12 is used to limit the movement range of the support member 24 to ensure the stability and reliability of the device during use. The notch 13 is a groove or opening reserved in the middle of the outer frame 11, and its size and shape match the interface area 26 on the touch screen assembly 2 to facilitate the insertion of various data cables and other connectors;

[0029] The outer shell 21 is connected to the inner side of the end of the outer frame 11 through a shaft member, allowing it to rotate open and close relative to the frame 1; the touch screen body 23 is the actual display part of the touch screen, usually composed of multiple different materials, including glass, a touch sensing layer, a display panel, etc.; the metal heat absorption net 25 is a metal net with a hollow structure, located below the touch screen body 23, in direct contact with the touch screen, absorbing the heat generated by the touch screen body 23 and transferring the heat to the heat dissipation area 27; the heat dissipation area 27 is a part of the back of the outer shell 21, specifically for heat dissipation, which is adjacent to the metal heat absorption net 25 and dissipates heat through air flow and other means. The heat dissipation fan 28 is a small fan installed in the heat dissipation area 27, and its function is to accelerate air flow, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0030] Specifically, the lower part of the outer shell 21 is movably connected to the inner side of the end of the outer frame 11 through a shaft member. The lower side of the outer shell 21 is symmetrically provided with speakers 22. The middle position of the top of the outer shell 21 is integrally provided with an interface area 26, and the size of the interface area 26 matches the size of the notch 13; the speakers 22 are installed on the lower side of the outer shell 21 for playing sound, and are symmetrically distributed to provide a stereo effect. The interface area 26 is located in the middle position of the top of the outer shell 21 and includes various interfaces, such as a USB interface, a power interface, etc. The size of the interface area 26 matches the notch 13 on the frame 1, so that it can be perfectly aligned when closed;

[0031] The metal heat absorption net 25 is located below the touch screen body 23, and the metal heat absorption net 25 separates the inner chamber of the outer shell 21 from the inner chamber of the heat dissipation area 27. The metal heat absorption net 25 has a uniform hollow structure; the metal heat absorption net 25 is in direct contact with the touch screen body 23 to absorb the generated heat. A temperature sensing element is provided around the touch screen body 23, and the temperature sensing element and the heat dissipation fan 28 form an automatic heat dissipation system. The temperature sensing element is installed around the touch screen body 23 and can monitor its temperature change. Once the detected temperature exceeds the preset value, it will trigger the response of the heat dissipation system. When the temperature sensing element detects that the temperature of the touch screen body 23 is too high, the heat dissipation fan 28 will be automatically started to accelerate air flow, thereby reducing the temperature of the touch screen.

[0032] Furthermore, continuous protrusions are provided on the inner side of the support member 24, and the lower end of the support member 24 is matched with the continuous grooves provided on the upper side of the limiting member 12; the support member 24 is connected to the edge of the back of the outer shell 21 through a shaft member and can be folded or unfolded to support the device. Continuous protrusions are provided on the inner side of the support member 24 and are matched with the continuous grooves on the upper side of the limiting member 12 in the frame 1 to ensure that the support member 24 is stable and reliable in the open state.

[0033] In summary, when the touch screen is working, especially when performing graphics-intensive tasks (such as gaming or video playback), the touch screen body 23 generates heat; the metal heat-absorbing mesh 25 is in direct contact with the touch screen body 23 to absorb the generated heat; the temperature sensing element monitors the temperature of the touch screen body 23, and if the temperature exceeds the safe range, the cooling fan 28 is activated; the cooling fan 28 discharges the heat from the heat dissipation area 27 by increasing the air flow rate, thereby keeping the touch screen body 23 within the safe operating temperature range.
