[0002] The plate is the main part of the heat exchanger assembly. After the plates are stacked in positive and negative directions and completed, a fixture is used to stack and weld the plates together under high temperature and high vacuum conditions in a vacuum brazing furnace. The pitting process is a technology for processing tiny raised points (i.e., pits) on the surface of metals or other materials. These pits can be evenly distributed or arranged according to a specific pattern. Applying the pitting process to the heat exchanger plate mainly utilizes the pit structure to increase the surface area of the plate, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency.

The heat transfer medium can enter the heat exchanger through the flow guiding area at the same time, realizing uniform distribution of the medium in the heat transfer area and improving the heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0026] Embodiment 2
[0027] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, a heat exchanger plate based on a pitting process includes a fin 12, and also includes a main body mechanism 01, a positioning mechanism 02 and pitting 31.

[0034] Through the above settings, the stress at the plane of the plate can be released, the flatness of the plate can be improved, and thus the flatness of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 can be effectively improved. The fitting between the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 can be effectively enhanced, and capillary action can be formed under the conditions of high temperature and high vacuum in the vacuum brazing furnace, so that the solder coating on the surfaces of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 melts, accumulates and solidifies, preventing the loss of solder at the non-contact surface, ensuring the strength between the first plate 11 and the second plate 13. Since the shape of the dimples 31 is square, the stress of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 can be better released, and at the same time, the thinning rate requirements of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 are met. The design values of the side length and depth of the dimples 31 need to be within a certain size range to ensure that the flatness of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 is improved after stamping.

The grooves 22 of the first plate 11 are in contact and fit with the bosses 21 of the second plate 13, improving the accuracy of stack welding and enhancing the overall strength. By distinguishing the directions of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 through the positioning grooves 23, the practicability is improved. Through the above settings, the stress at the plane of the plate can be released, the flatness of the plate can be improved, and thus the flatness of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 can be effectively improved. The fitting between the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 can be effectively enhanced, and capillary action can be formed under the conditions of high temperature and high vacuum in the vacuum brazing furnace, so that the solder coating on the surfaces of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 melts, accumulates and solidifies, preventing the loss of solder at the non-contact surface, ensuring the strength between the first plate 11 and the second plate 13. Since the shape of the dimples 31 is square, the stress of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 can be better released, and at the same time, the thinning rate requirements of the first plate 11 and the second plate 13 are met.
