Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of automobile components, and in particular relates to a speed regulating resistor for an automobile fan. Background Art
[0002] The traditional fan speed regulating resistor is generally installed at the corner of the fan frame. Since the speed regulating resistor itself generates a lot of heat when working, when the fan motor is not running normally (stall), the continuous current passing through the resistor causes the temperature of the resistor wire to rise abnormally, which may burn the surrounding plastic parts and cause the fan to fail to work normally. Chinese patent document: CN202020783305.5 discloses a car cooling fan that protects the speed regulating resistor. In this application, the speed regulating resistor is installed at the fan air outlet and the wind force generated by the fan is used to dissipate the heat of the speed regulating resistor. However, the single resistor structure is easy to affect the fan air volume, and the traditional speed regulating resistor shell is made of plastic material, which not only has poor thermal conductivity, which will affect the heat dissipation effect of the resistor, but also easily causes failures due to external open fire accidents.

The interior of the resistor housing 1 is a cavity, and a partition 12 is provided on one side of the inner cavity of the resistor housing 1. The partition 12 separates the two sides of the inner cavity of the resistor housing 1 into a resistance wire 2 cavity 101 and a fuse cavity 102. A through hole 13 is provided at one end of the partition 12, and a plurality of ventilation holes 14 are symmetrically provided on the side walls at the front and rear ends of the fuse cavity 102; two insulating sleeves 15 distributed on the left and right are provided in the resistance wire 2 cavity 101. The material of the insulating sleeve 15 is high-frequency insulating ceramic. A resistance wire 2 is provided in each of the two insulating sleeves 15. The two resistance wires 2 The resistance values are different. One end of the two resistance wires 2 is extended to the outside of the resistor housing 1 through the wire 4 respectively. The other ends of the two resistance wires 2 are connected by wires and extend into the fuse cavity 102 through the through hole 13 and are connected in series with the temperature protector 3. One end of the temperature protector 3 is extended to the outside of the resistor housing 1 through the wire 4, and the temperature protector 3 is located at the ventilation hole 14.

[0027] In this embodiment, the resistor housing 1 is made of ADC12 aluminum alloy, which is a die-cast aluminum alloy with good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.
[0028] In this embodiment, one end of the resistor housing 1 is closed and the other end is open. A cover (not shown in the figure) is provided at the opening at one end of the resistor housing 1.
