Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat dissipation of AP devices, and particularly relates to a semiconductor heat dissipation wireless AP device. Background Art

[0002] A wireless repeater is simply called a wireless AP. In an environment with a vast space, the coverage range of a wireless signal is more important than bandwidth and speed. Undoubtedly, using a repeater to expand the coverage range of a base station is a better choice.

[0003] In order to meet the actual needs, the existing wireless AP devices have a relatively high power, which causes a large amount of heat to be dissipated when the wireless AP devices are working. Most of the existing heat dissipation structures adopt passive heat dissipation, such as dissipating heat through metal heat dissipation fins. This method has a slow heat dissipation speed and cannot meet the actual needs.

[0004] Therefore, on this basis, a fan is set up for active heat dissipation. When the fan dissipates heat, it will be affected by the ambient temperature. When the ambient temperature is relatively high, the heat dissipation effect is poor. Moreover, the fan will also generate heat and noise during operation, affecting the heat dissipation effect and resulting in insufficient heat dissipation effect. Therefore, a semiconductor heat dissipation wireless AP device is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] Based on the above description, the utility model provides a semiconductor heat dissipation wireless AP device to solve the problem of insufficient heat dissipation effect during heat dissipation by the fan and the heat dissipation fins.

The Tesla valve is arranged inside the heat exchange base plate and includes a first Tesla side plate, a second Tesla side plate, an intermediate member and a valve groove. The semiconductor refrigeration sheet is arranged inside the heat exchange base and is in contact with the heat exchange top plate.

[0007] On the basis of the above technical solution, the utility model can be further improved as follows.

A semiconductor mounting groove is disposed on the upper surface of the top plate mounting groove, and the size of the semiconductor mounting groove is smaller than the size of the top plate mounting groove.

[0012] Further, the heat exchange base includes a metal base. A positioning mounting groove is disposed on the upper surface of the metal base. A communication hole is disposed at the inner bottom wall of the positioning mounting groove, and the communication holes are equidistantly distributed.

[0013] Further, an air inlet groove is disposed on the lower surface of the metal base. The air inlet groove communicates with the communication hole. A positioning groove is disposed at the inner top wall of the air inlet groove. A fixed hollow cylinder is disposed on the outer surface of the metal base, and the fixed hollow cylinder and the positioning hole are in one-to-one correspondence.

[0014] Further, the Tesla valve includes a first Tesla side plate, a second Tesla side plate, and an intermediate member.

[0015] Further, valve grooves are disposed on the opposite sides of the first Tesla side plate and the second Tesla side plate and on both sides of the intermediate member. Connecting holes are disposed on the surfaces of the first Tesla side plate, the second Tesla side plate, and the intermediate member.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , a semiconductor heat dissipation wireless AP device, comprising:

[0040] The AP main body 1, which includes a heat exchange top plate 13;

[0041] The AP main body 1 includes a device main body 11, on the upper surface of the device main body 11, there are provided blind threaded holes 12 and a heat exchange top plate 13. The blind threaded holes 12 are symmetrically distributed along the outer circle of the device main body 11. The heat exchange top plate 13 is arranged at the center of the upper surface of the device main body 11. The heat exchange top plate 13 is a metal heat exchange plate, and the heat exchange top plate 13 extends into the interior of the device main body 11;

The blind threaded holes 12 enable the heat dissipation mechanism to be fixed on the upper surface of the AP main body 1 by screws. The setting of the heat exchange top plate 13 enables the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5 to directly perform heat exchange operations with the AP main body 1.

[0043] Such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, a heat exchange base 2, which is arranged at the top of the AP main body 1;

[0044] The heat exchange base 2 includes a base block 21. A base connecting plate 22 is provided on the outer surface of the base block 21. A positioning hole 23 is provided on the upper surface of the base connecting plate 22. The positioning hole 23 and the threaded blind hole 12 are in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0046] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 7 And Figure 8 As shown, a heat exchange base 3 is provided at the top of the heat exchange base 2 and includes a communication hole 33.

[0047] The heat exchange base 3 includes a metal base 31. A positioning installation groove 32 is provided on the upper surface of the metal base 31. A communication hole 33 is provided at the bottom wall of the positioning installation groove 32. The communication holes 33 are equidistantly distributed. An air intake groove 34 is provided on the lower surface of the metal base 31. The air intake groove 34 communicates with the communication hole 33. A positioning groove 35 is provided at the top wall of the air intake groove 34. A fixed hollow cylinder 36 is provided on the outer surface of the metal base 31. The fixed hollow cylinder 36 and the positioning hole 23 are in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0048] Based on the above, the setting of the positioning installation groove 32 provides an installation space for the Tesla valve 4, so that the Tesla valve 4 can be fixed inside the positioning installation groove 32 through screws. The setting of the communication hole 33 enables the air intake groove 34, the communication hole 33 and the external space to communicate with the Tesla valve 4, that is, the external air can flow through the air intake groove 34 and the communication hole 33 and then enter the inside of the Tesla valve 4. The setting of the positioning groove 35 makes the connection between the heat exchange base 3 and the heat exchange base 2 more stable. The setting of the fixed hollow cylinder 36 enables the heat exchange base 3 to be connected to the heat exchange base 2 and the AP main body 1 through screws.

[0049] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown in Figure 12 , the Tesla valve 4 is disposed inside the heat exchange base 3 and includes a first Tesla side plate 41, a second Tesla side plate 42, a middle member 43, and a valve groove 47;

[0050] The Tesla valve 4 includes a first Tesla side plate 41, a second Tesla side plate 42, and a middle member 43. The middle member 43 is disposed between the first Tesla side plate 41 and the second Tesla side plate 42. The Tesla valve 4 is disposed inside the positioning and mounting groove 32. The middle member 43 is a U-shaped metal plate;

[0051] Valve grooves 47 are provided on opposite sides of the first Tesla side plate 41 and the second Tesla side plate 42 and on both sides of the middle member 43. Connecting holes 46 are provided on the surfaces of the first Tesla side plate 41, the second Tesla side plate 42, and the middle member 43. Positioning blind holes 44 and positioning protrusions 45 are respectively provided on the surfaces of opposite sides of the first Tesla side plate 41 and the second Tesla side plate 42. Positioning blind holes 44 and positioning protrusions 45 are respectively provided on both side walls of the valve groove 47. The positioning protrusion 45 extends into the adjacent positioning blind hole 44;

[0052] The semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5 is disposed inside the heat exchange base 2 and is in contact with the heat exchange top plate 13. The semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5 is disposed inside the semiconductor mounting groove 24. The heat exchange top plate 13 is disposed inside the top plate mounting groove 25. The heat exchange top plate 13 is in contact with the refrigerating end of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5. The heating end of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5 is in contact with the inner top wall of the semiconductor mounting groove 24;

[0053] Based on the above, the refrigerating end of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5 is disposed at the lower end of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5. When the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 5 works, heat is generated at the upper end and refrigeration is performed at the lower end. The refrigerating end cools the AP main body 1 through the heat exchange top plate 13. The heat dissipated by the heating end is transferred to the heat exchange base 3 and the Tesla valve 4 through the heat exchange base 2. In this process, the heat exchange base 3 and the Tesla valve 4 play the role of heat exchange with the external air. The setting of the Tesla valve 4 can accelerate the hot air, so that the hot air between the heat exchange base 3 and the heat exchange base 2 can be discharged through the Tesla valve 4 faster. After being discharged, the external air can enter again, increasing the heat dissipation effect by accelerating the air flow. The setting of the positioning blind holes 44 and the positioning protrusions 45 makes the adjacent first Tesla side plate 41, second Tesla side plate 42, and middle member 43 more stable when installed inside the mounting groove 32.

[0054] In actual use of this embodiment, by energizing the semiconductor refrigeration chip 5, the refrigerating end of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 5 located below is made to refrigerate, and the AP main body 1 is cooled by the heat exchange top plate 13 in contact with the refrigerating end;

[0055] At the same time, the heating end of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 5 located above starts to generate heat. At this time, the heat generated by the heating end is transferred to the heat exchange base 2, the heat exchange bottom base 3 and the Tesla valve 4. At this time, the heat exchange bottom base 3 and the Tesla valve 4 exchange heat with the external air at the same time, which achieves the effect of preliminary heat dissipation;

[0056] In the above process, the air between the heat exchange bottom base 3 and the heat exchange base 2 is heated into hot air. When the hot air rises, it is accelerated by the Tesla valve 4, so that the hot air can be discharged faster. While discharging the hot air, the external normal-temperature air enters between the heat exchange bottom base 3 and the heat exchange base 2;

[0057] This semiconductor heat dissipation wireless AP device is provided with a semiconductor refrigeration chip 5 and a heat exchange top plate 13, so that the AP main body 1 is directly cooled by the refrigerating end of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 5. In this process, the heat generated by the heating end of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 5 is dissipated by the heat exchange base 2, the heat exchange bottom base 3 and the Tesla valve 4, and the characteristic that the Tesla valve 4 can accelerate the unidirectional air flow is fully utilized to make the hot air be discharged faster, so as to increase the heat dissipation effect. Compared with the traditional heat dissipation method using a fan, this AP device can not only cool the AP main body 1 faster, but also make the heat dissipation process of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 5 faster.

[0058] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
