The coolant reflux is partially or all set in a spiral shape to increase the heat dissipation time and quickly dissipate heat through the heat dissipation fins to reduce the use of the heat dissipation.
By increasing the heat dissipation time and using the heat dissipation fins to quickly dissipate heat, the use of radiators can be reduced when the height of the 5G tower is high and energy consumption can be reduced. Especially when the height of the tower is higher than 15m, the radiator can be eliminated.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of 5G communication, and particularly to a heat-conducting finned tube structure for a 5G tower. Background Art
[0002] The 5G communication tower is one of the core devices of the 5G network, which is used to provide wireless coverage and realize the wireless signal transmission between the wired communication network and the wireless terminal. The following is some introduction to the 5G communication tower:
[0003] 1. Components: The 5G communication tower mainly consists of two parts, namely the baseband processing unit (BBU) and the active antenna unit (AAU). The BBU is installed in the machine room under or near the tower and is responsible for processing the baseband digital signal; the AAU is installed on the iron tower and is responsible for converting the baseband signal into a radio frequency signal and sending it out, and at the same time receiving the radio frequency signal from the wireless terminal and converting it into a baseband signal for transmission to the BBU. 2. Construction method: The construction of the 5G communication tower needs to consider multiple factors such as coverage area, capacity demand, and environmental factors. According to different requirements and scenarios, the 5G communication tower can adopt different construction methods, such as macro base stations, micro base stations, and pico base stations, etc. Macro base stations have a larger coverage area and are generally used in open areas such as cities and suburbs; micro base stations have a smaller coverage area and are generally used in scenarios such as urban hotspots and indoors; pico base stations are mainly used for indoor coverage. 3. Technical features: The 5G communication tower adopts technologies such as multiple input multiple output, high-frequency communication, and ultra-dense networking to improve network capacity and coverage. The application of these technologies makes the 5G communication tower face some challenges in the construction and maintenance process, such as the increased installation difficulty of the antenna feeder system and the increase in the number of base stations. 4. Environmental assessment: Since the construction of the 5G communication tower may have a certain impact on the surrounding environment, environmental assessment and evaluation are required during the construction process to ensure that it meets the relevant environmental protection standards and requirements. 5. Application scenarios: The 5G communication tower is widely used in various fields, such as smart home, intelligent transportation, and industrial Internet, etc. With the continuous development of 5G technology and the continuous expansion of application scenarios, the role and importance of the 5G communication tower will also continue to increase.
[0004] For the existing 5G communication tower, the heat dissipation of the AAU mainly adopts liquid cooling. The condensate enters the AAU through the pipeline and then flows back to be re-cooled by the radiator again. This method has high energy consumption because the radiator is required to re-cool the condensate water. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to improve the problem of energy consumption, this application provides a heat-conducting finned tube structure for a 5G tower.
[0006] A heat-conducting finned tube structure for a 5G tower provided by this application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A 5G tower heat-conducting finned tube structure includes a spiral pipeline and heat-dissipating fins installed on the spiral pipeline. The heat-dissipating fins are circumferentially distributed along the central axis of the spiral pipeline. The heat-dissipating fins include a first fin and a second fin. The first fin is fixed on the spiral pipeline, and the second fin is detachably installed on the first fin and has a first installation state installed inside the first fin or a second installation state installed outside the first fin.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting part or all of the return pipeline (referring to the pipeline where the coolant comes out of the AAU) into a spiral shape, the heat dissipation time is increased, and heat dissipation is quickly carried out through the heat-dissipating fins. Since the 5G tower is relatively high, the coolant can gradually dissipate heat during the return process, which can reduce the use of radiators and eliminate the need for radiators when the tower height is higher than about 15m. When the second fin is installed outside the first fin, the second fin extends outside the 5G tower at this time and dissipates heat through the external air. When the second fin is installed inside the first fin (the outer structure of the first fin is located outside the tower), the heat on the spiral pipeline is quickly transferred to the heat pipe in the middle of the tower through the fins (the second fin abuts against the heat pipe), and heat is quickly conducted through the heat pipe. Generally, a fan is arranged inside the heat pipe in this case, and the heat of the heat pipe is quickly taken away by the fan. Although a fan is arranged, its energy consumption is also reduced compared with the existing radiators. The first state generally adapts to the situation where the AAU power is relatively low (the AAU temperature is low), and the second state generally adapts to the situation where the AAU power is relatively high, that is, the AAU temperature in the first state is lower than the AAU temperature in the second state.
[0009] Optionally, wave-shaped structures are symmetrically formed on both the inner and outer sides of the first fin. A docking portion for docking with the wave-shaped structure is formed on one side of the second fin, and an arc surface is formed on the other side. The first fin and the second fin are connected by a connecting component.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, both the inner and outer sides of the first fin are set into wave-shaped structures, which increases the heat dissipation area and facilitates docking; the arc surface is used to fit the side wall of the heat pipe.
[0011] Optionally, the connecting component includes an upper U-shaped sleeve and a lower U-shaped sleeve. Steel wires are fixed on both sides of the lower U-shaped sleeve. A threaded column is fixed at one end of the steel wire away from the lower U-shaped sleeve. A round hole for the threaded column to pass through is opened on the upper U-shaped sleeve, and a nut is connected to the threaded column.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper U-shaped sleeve and the lower U-shaped sleeve are respectively connected to the upper end and the lower end of the junction of the first fin and the second fin. The threaded posts on the steel wire pass through the round holes and are connected to the nuts, so that the upper U-shaped sleeve and the lower U-shaped sleeve are fixedly connected together. Relying on the frictional force between the upper U-shaped sleeve, the lower U-shaped sleeve and the first fin and the second fin, the first fin and the second fin are connected together.
[0013] Optionally, two steel wires are arranged on each side. Each steel wire is fixed with a threaded post, and a fixing plate is fixed on the two threaded posts.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, through the fixing plate, the threaded posts of the two steel wires can quickly pass through the round holes on the upper U-shaped sleeve, and the installation is fast.
[0015] Optionally, connection holes are formed in both the first fin and the second fin. The connection assembly further includes a U-shaped connection buckle. Two ends of the U-shaped connection buckle are respectively inserted into the connection holes of the first fin and the second fin, and the U-shaped connection buckle is located inside the threaded post.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the U-shaped connection buckle mainly plays an insurance role. Its setting makes the first fin and the second fin not relatively separated, and since the U-shaped connection buckle is located inside the threaded post, there is no need to use additional tools to fix the U-shaped connection buckle, and the installation is fast.
[0017] Optionally, two U-shaped connection buckles are provided, and the two U-shaped connection buckles are arranged in parallel.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, setting two U-shaped connection buckles makes the connection more reliable.
[0019] Optionally, at least two limiting blocks are fixed at the inner wall of at least one of the upper U-shaped sleeve and the lower U-shaped sleeve. At least one limiting groove is formed in each of the first fin and the second fin. When the upper U-shaped sleeve and the lower U-shaped sleeve are installed, at least one limiting block corresponds to the limiting grooves of the first fin and the second fin respectively.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, this method can eliminate the U-shaped connection buckle and the installation is faster. Of course, for greater safety, it can also be used in combination with the U-shaped connection buckle.
[0021] Optionally, rubber sheets are arranged between the upper U-shaped sleeve, the lower U-shaped sleeve and the first fin and the second fin. When the steel wire is tightened, the rubber sheets are compressed.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the rubber sheets can, on the one hand, protect the first fin and the second fin, and on the other hand, the upper U-shaped sleeve and the lower U-shaped sleeve can clamp the first fin and the second fin more tightly.

Specific embodiments
[0032] The following will further elaborate on the present application in conjunction with the attached Figure 1-8 drawings.
[0033] An embodiment of the present application discloses a 5G tower heat-conducting finned tube structure, including a spiral pipe 41 and heat-dissipating fins installed on the spiral pipe 41. The heat-dissipating fins are circumferentially distributed along the central axis of the spiral pipe 41. The heat-dissipating fins include a first fin 2 and a second fin 3. The first fin 2 is fixed on the spiral pipe 41, and the second fin 3 is detachably installed on the first fin 2 and has a first installation state installed inside the first fin 2 or a second installation state installed outside the first fin 2.
[0034] Wave-shaped structures are symmetrically formed on both the inner and outer sides of the first fin 2. A docking part 5 that docks with the wave-shaped structure is formed on one side of the second fin 3, and an arc surface 6 is formed on the other side, where the docking part 5 is also a wave-shaped structure.
[0035] The first fin 2 and the second fin 3 are connected by a connecting component. The connecting component includes an upper U-shaped sleeve 7 and a lower U-shaped sleeve 8. Steel wires 9 are fixed on both sides of the lower U-shaped sleeve 8. One end of the steel wire 9 away from the lower U-shaped sleeve 8 is fixed with a threaded post 11. The upper U-shaped sleeve 7 is provided with a round hole for the threaded post 11 to pass through, and a nut 12 is connected to the threaded post 11. Specifically, the upper U-shaped sleeve 7 has a first connecting plate 13, the lower U-shaped sleeve 8 has a second connecting plate 14, and the round hole is opened on the first connecting plate 13; a hole is opened on the second connecting plate 14, and the steel wire 9 passes through the hole and is welded to the second connecting plate 14 to form a limiting structure 15, and the limiting structure 15 is larger than the hole diameter.
[0036] Two steel wires 9 are arranged on each side, each steel wire 9 is fixed with a threaded post 11, and the two threaded posts 11 are fixedly connected to the fixing plate 10 at the same time. In this way, the fixing plate 10 can be held while the two threaded posts 11 pass through the round holes, and then the nut 12 is connected. The nut 12 abuts against the first connecting plate 13. This method is more convenient, and there will be a gap between the fixing plate 10 and the first connecting plate 13 after connection.
[0037] Connecting holes 16 are opened on both the first fin 2 and the second fin 3. The connecting component further includes a U-shaped connecting buckle 17. Two ends of the U-shaped connecting buckle 17 are respectively inserted into the connecting holes 16 of the first fin 2 and the second fin 3, and the U-shaped connecting buckle 17 is located inside the threaded post 11. Since the U-shaped connecting buckle 17 is blocked by the threaded post 11, there is no need to limit the U-shaped connecting buckle 17 anymore. When installing, the U-shaped connecting buckle 17 needs to be installed first, and then the nut 12 is installed through the threaded post 11.
[0038] For reliable connection, two U-shaped connecting buckles 17 can be provided, and the two U-shaped connecting buckles 17 are arranged in parallel.
[0039] To further improve the connection effect, as Figure 5 , rubber sheets 20 can be provided between the upper U-shaped sleeve 7 and the lower U-shaped sleeve 8 and the first fin 2 and the second fin 3. When the steel wire 9 is tightened, the rubber sheets 20 are compressed.
[0040] Embodiment 2: At least two limiting blocks 19 are fixed at the inner wall of at least one of the upper U-shaped sleeve 7 and the lower U-shaped sleeve 8. At least one limiting groove 18 is opened on each of the first fin 2 and the second fin 3. When the upper U-shaped sleeve 7 and the lower U-shaped sleeve 8 are installed, at least one limiting block 19 corresponds to the limiting groove 18 of the first fin 2 and the second fin 3 respectively. In this embodiment Figure 7 only shows the way of opening one limiting groove 18 each.
