Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of UPS power supplies, and particularly relates to a UPS power supply with air cooling and heat dissipation. Background Art

[0002] UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), that is, an uninterruptible power supply, is a constant voltage and constant frequency uninterruptible power supply containing an energy storage device and mainly composed of an inverter. It is mainly used to provide uninterrupted power supply for some devices with high requirements for power stability. When the mains input is normal, the UPS stabilizes the mains voltage and supplies it to the load for use. At this time, the UPS is an AC voltage stabilizer, and at the same time, it also charges the battery inside the machine; when the mains power is interrupted, the UPS immediately converts the DC electrical energy of the battery into alternating current through an inverter conversion method to continue supplying power to the load, enabling the load to maintain normal operation and protecting the load software and hardware from damage.

[0003] The UPS generates heat during operation. Especially for high-power UPS systems, since the internal electronic components and batteries generate heat during operation, if effective heat dissipation management is not carried out, it may lead to a decrease in the performance and efficiency of the UPS, affecting its stability and lifespan, and even causing overheating and damage to the components. In the prior art, generally, active heat dissipation methods such as fans are used to directly dissipate heat from the UPS power supply.
