Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of thermostats, and in particular to an externally mounted separate heating wax bag. Background Art
[0002] The thermostat is a component that automatically adjusts the amount of water entering the radiator according to the temperature of the cooling water, changes the circulation range of the water, adjusts the heat dissipation capacity of the cooling system, and ensures that the engine works within the appropriate temperature range. The thermostat commonly used at present is a wax thermostat, and the wax bag is the core component of the wax thermostat. When the cooling temperature is lower than the specified value, the refined paraffin in the wax bag is solid, and the thermostat valve closes the channel between the engine and the radiator under the action of the spring. The coolant returns to the engine through the water pump and performs a small circulation in the engine. When the coolant temperature reaches the specified value, the paraffin begins to melt and gradually becomes liquid, which in turn moves the push rod. After the push rod moves, it pushes the valve to open the valve. At this time, the coolant flows back to the engine through the radiator and thermostat valve, and then through the water pump to perform a large circulation.
[0003] In the related art, the wax bag includes a wax bag shell, a heater and a push rod. The wax bag shell is provided with a wax bag chamber for containing refined paraffin wax. The heater and the push rod are respectively located at two ends of the wax bag shell and are inserted into the wax bag chamber. The heater is used to heat the paraffin wax to melt it, so a wire is provided at one end of the heater away from the push rod.
[0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, since the heater is located in the wax bag chamber and is in direct contact with the wax, after the wax melts, it is easy to leak along the wire or the sealing ring under the condition of high internal pressure and different expansion coefficients of different materials, thereby causing the thermostat to fail. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The following is combined with Figure 1-2 This application is described in further detail.
[0025] The present application embodiment discloses an externally mounted separate heating wax pack. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The externally separated heating wax package includes a wax package shell 1, a heater 2 and a push rod 3. A heating partition groove 11 is provided on one side of the wax package shell 1, and the heater 2 is installed in the heating partition groove 11. A wax package chamber 12 for storing wax is provided in the wax package shell 1, and the wax package chamber 12 and the heating partition groove 11 are not connected to each other. The push rod 3 is partially inserted into the wax package chamber 12; and part of it protrudes from the wax package shell 1 and is exposed to the outside to cooperate with the valve of the thermostat. The heater 2 is installed in the heating partition groove 11 by means of an external wax package chamber 12, so that when the wax package is heated, it is not easy for the melted wax to leak along the wire of the heater 2 due to the different expansion coefficients of different materials.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The wax package shell 1 is provided with an assembly groove 13 on one side away from the heating separation groove 11, and the assembly groove 13 is connected with the wax package chamber 12, so as to facilitate the injection of wax into the wax package chamber 12 during production. A sealing component 4 is installed in the assembly groove 13 to prevent the liquid wax from leaking out of the wax package chamber 12, and the sealing component 4 is sleeved on the top rod 3.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The assembly groove 13 includes a sealing groove 14 and a clamping limit groove 15, and the sealing groove 14 is connected to the clamping limit groove 15. The clamping limit groove 15 is opened on the side of the wax package shell 1 away from the heating separation groove 11, and the sealing groove 14 is opened at the groove bottom of the clamping limit groove 15, and the sealing groove 14 is connected to the wax package chamber 12. The groove diameter of the clamping limit groove 15 is larger than the groove diameter of the sealing groove 14, that is, the clamping limit groove 15 and the sealing groove 14 form a stepped groove; the groove diameter of the sealing groove 14 is smaller than the inner diameter of the wax package chamber 12, and then when part of the sealing component 4 is inserted into the sealing groove 14, the wax in the wax package chamber 12 is less likely to leak out.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sealing assembly 4 includes a sealing plug 41 and an end cover 42. The sealing plug 41 is inserted into the sealing groove 14 by interference fit. The end cover 42 is mounted in the clamping limit groove 15 to limit the sealing plug 41, so that the sealing plug 41 is not easily separated from the sealing groove 14. The end of the ejector rod 3 away from the heater 2 passes through the sealing plug 41 and the end cover 42.
[0029] The inner groove edge of the sealing groove 14 near the end cover 42 is chamfered, so as to facilitate the sealing plug 41 to be inserted into the sealing groove 14. The sealing plug 41 is integrally formed with an abutting convex edge ring 43 on the side near the end cover 42. The outer diameter of the abutting convex edge ring 43 is larger than the groove diameter of the sealing groove 14. The abutting convex edge ring 43 is located in the clamping limit groove 15, and the abutting convex edge ring 43 abuts against the groove bottom of the clamping limit groove 15, so as to prevent the sealing plug 41 from entering the wax bag chamber 12 from the sealing groove 14.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A slot 44 for inserting the abutting convex ring 43 is provided on one side of the end cover 42 close to the abutting convex ring 43, and an arc surface 45 is provided on one side of the abutting convex ring 43 close to the bottom of the slot 44. A fitting arc surface 46 that fits with the arc surface 45 is provided at the bottom of the slot 44, thereby improving the fit and sealing effect between the sealing plug 41 and the end cover 42.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The slot of the clamping limit slot 15 away from the sealing slot 14 is integrally formed with an inclined ring 16, and the inclined ring 16 gradually tilts toward the central axis of the clamping limit slot 15 along the distance from the sealing slot 14 to the clamping limit slot 15. Then, when the end cover 42 enters the clamping limit slot 15, the inclined ring 16 can clamp and limit the end cover 42 in the clamping limit slot 15.
[0032] The implementation principle of an externally separated heating wax bag in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the heater 2 is installed externally in the heating separation groove 11, and the wax in the wax bag chamber 12 is melted by heat conduction through the wall of the wax bag shell 1, so that when the wax bag is heated, it is not easy for the melted wax to leak along the wire of the heater 2 due to the different expansion coefficients of different materials. The sealing plug 41 is inserted into the sealing groove 14 to block the sealing groove 14, so that the liquid wax is not easy to leak out from the wax bag chamber 12 through the sealing groove 14. At the same time, the end cover 42 presses the sealing plug 41 under the action of the tilting ring 16 to make it difficult for it to escape from the sealing groove 14.
[0033] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
