[0012] According to an embodiment of the present application, the installation frame further includes: at least one connecting member, and the connecting member is connected between the relatively arranged mounting plates.

[0013] The connecting member is connected between the relatively arranged mounting plates to form a stable overall structure, which can ensure the relative position of the mounting plates is fixed, prevent movement or deformation during installation and use, not only enhances the structural stability of the installation frame, but also simplifies the installation and maintenance process of the radiator.

[0014] According to an embodiment of the present application, the strengthening structure further includes: a connecting beam, and the connecting beam is connected between the relatively arranged supporting members.

[0015] As an important part of the strengthening structure, the connecting beam is used to connect the relatively arranged supporting members, which can enhance the stability and rigidity of the installation frame and optimize the stress distribution.

[0016] According to an embodiment of the present application, the supporting member is provided with a hollow hole.

[0017] The provision of the hollow hole on the supporting member helps to reduce the weight of the overall structure and has a positive impact on the heat dissipation performance.

[0018] In a second aspect, the present application provides a radiator assembly, including:

[0019] The strengthening structure as described in any one of the above;

[0021] The radiator assembly is composed of the strengthening structure and the radiator, which can improve the overall structural strength and heat dissipation efficiency of the radiator.

[0022] According to an embodiment of the present application, the condenser includes a multi-layer condensation structure, and each condensation structure includes a gas collecting pipe and a liquid collecting pipe. The gas collecting pipes of the multi-layer condensation structure are connected, and the liquid collecting pipes of the multi-layer condensation structure are connected.

[0023] The above structural design allows the gaseous refrigerant and the liquid refrigerant to flow between the condensers, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area and contact time, which can improve the condensation efficiency. At the same time, stacking multiple said condensation structures together can also save space and simplify the pipeline layout.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present application, the radiator further includes: a connection block, the gas collecting pipes between adjacent condensation structures and the liquid collecting pipes between adjacent condensation structures are connected by corresponding connection blocks, and the connection block is provided with through holes, and the through holes are used to communicate adjacent gas collecting pipes or adjacent liquid collecting pipes.

[0027] The connection block plays a role of connecting the gas collecting pipes or the liquid collecting pipes on both sides in the condenser system. Through the support surfaces arranged in a facing-away manner, it closely fits with the gas collecting pipes or the liquid collecting pipes on both sides, and allows the fluid to flow smoothly through the through holes penetrating the support surfaces, ensuring the stable operation and high efficiency of the condenser system.

[0028] According to an embodiment of the present application, the radiator further includes: an air pipe, the outlet of the evaporator is communicated with the gas collecting pipe through the air pipe; a liquid pipe, the inlet of the evaporator is communicated with the liquid collecting pipe through the liquid pipe.

[0030] The air pipe is respectively connected to the outlet of the evaporator and the gas collecting pipe of the condenser, and the liquid pipe is respectively connected to the inlet of the evaporator and the liquid collecting pipe of the condenser.

[0050] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application and should not be construed as a limitation of the present application.

[0051] The present application aims to solve at least the technical problem of insufficient heat dissipation capacity of the radiator in the related art. For this purpose, the present application proposes a reinforcement structure and a radiator assembly, which can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the radiator and the overall strength of the radiator structure, thereby forming a stable, efficient and easy-to-install radiator system.

[0052] Reference will be made below to Figures 1-4 describe the reinforcement structure 20 according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0053] The reinforcement structure 20 is used to mount the radiator 10. The radiator 10 includes an evaporator 120 and a condenser 110 that are interconnected. The reinforcement structure 20 forms a first mounting position 30 for mounting the condenser 110 and a second mounting position 40 for mounting the evaporator 120, which can improve the stability and strength of the overall structure, play a role in supporting and stabilizing the radiator 10, ensure that the radiator 10 is stable and does not shake, and reduce the impact of vibration on the equipment.

[0054] The reinforcement structure 20 is an integral outer frame composed of multiple components. Different components can be connected by welding, bolts, buckles, etc. And the reinforcement structure 20 can be made of high-temperature resistant materials, such as stainless steel, aluminum alloy, etc., to ensure the stability of the mounting position, prevent loosening or damage caused by the weight of the radiator 10, working vibration or external environmental factors, such as wind pressure, thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes, etc. At the same time, the reinforcement structure 20 clearly divides the first mounting position 30 and the second mounting position 40, which helps to realize the orderly layout of the internal components of the heat dissipation system.

[0055] The evaporator 120 and the condenser 110 are key components in the radiator 10, responsible for absorbing and releasing heat respectively. The reinforcement structure 20 provides dedicated mounting positions for the evaporator 120 and the condenser 110, which helps to optimize the layout and relative position of the radiator 10, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the entire heat dissipation system.

[0056] According to the reinforcement structure 20 of the embodiments of the present application, by providing the first installation position 30 and the second installation position 40 for the condenser 110 and the evaporator 120 of the radiator 10 respectively through the reinforcement structure 20, the spatial layout can be optimized, ensuring that the condenser 110 and the evaporator 120 maintain a certain relative position, playing a role in supporting and stabilizing the radiator 10, so as to ensure that the radiator 10 is stable and does not shake. At the same time, the structural strength can be enhanced, the influence of vibration on the equipment can be reduced, and the heat dissipation efficiency and stability of the entire radiator 10 can be improved, making the structure of the radiator 10 regular and facilitating processing, transportation and assembly.

[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the reinforcement structure 20 includes: a mounting frame 210 and relatively arranged support members 230.

[0058] The first direction X is the distribution direction of the evaporator 120 and the condenser 110, the second direction Y is the length direction of the header pipe, and the first direction X and the second direction Y intersect.

[0059] The mounting frame 210 forms the first installation position 30 for installing the condenser 110 and plays a role in protecting the condenser 110 from damage by the external environment. The mounting frame 210 is the main frame part of the reinforcement structure 20 for installing and fixing the condenser 110. The mounting frame 210 can be made of metal, plastic or composite materials, etc., and has sufficient strength and rigidity to bear the weight of the condenser 110 and its internal components, as well as the vibration and stress that may occur during operation.

[0060] The support members 230 are connected to the mounting frame 210 and are used to further support and fix the evaporator 120. The support members 230 are usually relatively arranged to ensure that the evaporator 120 components are firmly supported, prevent the radiator assembly 1 from moving or loosening after installation, and at the same time avoid setting too many support members 230 in the key heat dissipation area to reduce the influence on the heat dissipation effect of the radiator 10, which helps to ensure the long-term stable operation of the radiator 10.

[0061] The support members 230 extend along the distribution direction of the evaporator 120 and the condenser 110, that is, the first direction X. A plurality of relatively arranged support members 230 are connected to the mounting frame 210 to form the second installation position 40, and at the same time play a role in supporting and stabilizing the evaporator 120. The support members 230 can be made of metal or other strong materials to ensure that they can bear the weight of the evaporator 120 and the condenser 110 and various forces and vibrations during operation.

[0062] It can be understood that the mounting frame 210 and the oppositely arranged support members 230 in the strengthening structure 20 together form a stable and adjustable frame system for mounting and supporting the radiator assembly 1, ensuring its stable operation and meeting the heat dissipation requirements.

[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the mounting frame 210 includes: oppositely arranged mounting plates 211, and the oppositely arranged support members 230 are correspondingly connected to the oppositely arranged mounting plates 211 one by one.

[0064] The mounting plates 211 are the main part of the mounting frame 210, forming a stable support plane when arranged oppositely. The mounting plates 211 are usually made of metal or other strong and durable materials and can be in a flat plate structure to ensure that they can bear the weight of the radiator 10 and its components and the stress during operation.

[0065] The oppositely arranged support members 230 are correspondingly connected to the oppositely arranged mounting plates 211 one by one, providing sufficient space for mounting the radiator 10 and ensuring the overall stability and rigidity of the mounting frame 210. The support members 230 can be connected to the mounting plates 211 through various forms of fasteners, such as bolts, rivets or weldments.

[0066] The connection method between the support members 230 and the mounting plates 211 can be a direct connection or an indirect connection. For a direct connection, fasteners are usually used to directly fix the support members 230 on the mounting plates 211, such as fixing one end of the support member 230 on the mounting plate 211 through bolts and nuts. For an indirect connection, additional connecting plates, brackets or frames are used to transfer and disperse stress to ensure the stability of the connection.

[0067] It can be understood that the mounting frame 210 is connected through the oppositely arranged mounting plates 211 and the correspondingly arranged support members 230, which can provide a stable, flexible and easy-to-maintain frame for the mounting of the radiator 10 and can effectively resist the vibration and stress generated by the radiator 10 during operation.

[0068] In some embodiments, as shown in the figure, the mounting frame 210 further includes:

[0069] At least one connecting member 212, and the connecting member 212 is connected between the oppositely arranged mounting plates 211.

[0070] The mounting plate 211 is a main component of the mounting frame 210, usually arranged oppositely, providing a mounting base for the condenser 110 assembly. The connecting member 212 is a component installed between the mounting plates 211, used to firmly connect the oppositely arranged mounting plates 211 together. The connecting member 212 and the mounting plates 211 together form the mounting frame 210, forming a stable integral structure that can bear the weight of the condenser 110 and its components and the vibration during operation, while ensuring the relative position between the mounting plates 211 is fixed, preventing movement or deformation during installation and use. The connecting member 212 also adopts appropriate anti-loosening designs, such as lock washers, thread locking agents, etc., to prevent loosening caused by vibration or temperature changes during use.

[0071] It can be understood that the connecting member 212 is connected between the oppositely arranged mounting plates 211, forming a stable integral structure, which can ensure the relative position between the mounting plates 211 is fixed, prevent movement or deformation during installation and use, not only enhances the structural stability of the mounting frame 210, but also simplifies the installation and maintenance process of the radiator 10.

[0072] In some embodiments, as shown in the figure, the strengthening structure 20 further includes a connecting beam 220, and the connecting beam 220 is connected between the oppositely arranged support members 230.

[0073] The connecting beam 220 is a structural element spanning between the oppositely arranged support members 230, used to connect multiple support members 230 to form an integral structure, ensuring the stability and rigidity between the support members 230, while also enhancing the strength of the entire strengthening structure 20, helping to better disperse and resist the loads and stresses from the radiator 10.

[0074] The connecting beam 220 forms additional connection points between the support members 230. These connection points help to disperse the stress throughout the strengthening structure 20, optimize the stress distribution of the strengthening structure 20, reduce the risk of damage caused by stress concentration, enabling the strengthening structure 20 to better resist external loads and vibrations, ensuring the stability and safety of the radiator 10 during operation.

[0075] It can be understood that the connecting beam 220, as an important part of the strengthening structure 20, used to connect the oppositely arranged support members 230, can enhance the stability and rigidity of the mounting frame 210 and optimize the stress distribution.

[0076] In some embodiments, as shown in the figure, the support member 230 is provided with a hollow hole, which helps to reduce the weight of the overall structure and has a positive impact on the heat dissipation performance.

[0077] Setting hollow holes on the support member 230 can significantly reduce the weight of the support member 230, thereby reducing the weight of the entire reinforcement structure 20 and reducing the amount of material used without sacrificing structural strength, thus reducing manufacturing costs. At the same time, in some cases, the hollow holes on the support member 230 can serve as ventilation ducts to increase air circulation and improve heat dissipation efficiency.

[0078] It can be understood that setting hollow holes on the support member 230 helps to reduce the weight of the overall structure and has a positive impact on the heat dissipation performance.

[0079] The embodiment of the present application further provides a radiator assembly 1, as Figure 1 shown. The radiator assembly 1 includes: a reinforcement structure 20 and a radiator 10. The reinforcement structure 20 can provide stable support and protection for the radiator 10, and the radiator 10 is responsible for effectively dissipating heat from the heat source to the surrounding environment.

[0080] The reinforcement structure 20 is an important component in the radiator assembly 1, including an installation frame 210, a support member 230, and a connecting beam 220. Through reasonable layout and connection, a stable frame is formed to provide reliable support and protection for the radiator 10 to ensure the stability of the radiator assembly 1.

[0081] The radiator 10 includes a condenser 110 and an evaporator 120 that are interconnected. The main function of the condenser 110 is to cool the gas and convert it into a liquid, usually used to transfer the thermal energy absorbed by the refrigerant in the evaporator 120 to the cooling medium, thereby reducing the system temperature. The cooling medium can be air. The condenser 110 is installed at the first installation position 30. The main function of the evaporator 120 is to absorb heat from the outside. The refrigerant changes from a liquid state to a gaseous state in the evaporator 120, absorbing a large amount of heat and effectively reducing the surrounding ambient temperature. The evaporator 120 is installed at the second installation position 40.

[0082] It can be understood that by combining the reinforcement structure 20 and the radiator 10 to form the radiator assembly 1, the overall structural strength and heat dissipation efficiency of the radiator 10 can be improved.

[0083] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the condenser 110 includes a multi-layer condensation structure. Each condensation structure includes a gas collecting pipe 111 and a liquid collecting pipe 112. The gas collecting pipes 111 of the multi-layer condensation structures are connected, and the liquid collecting pipes 112 of the multi-layer condensation structures are connected.

[0084] In the technical solution of this application, taking the length directions of the gas collecting pipe 111 and the liquid collecting pipe 112 as the second direction Y, the condenser 110 is a multi-layer condensation structure. The multi-layer structure can increase the cooling area, thereby improving the cooling efficiency. Each layer of the condensation structure includes a plurality of gas collecting pipes 111 and a plurality of liquid collecting pipes 112. The function of the gas collecting pipe 111 is to collect and convey gas, and the liquid collecting pipe 112 is used to collect and convey the condensed liquid. The gas collecting pipes 111 between the multi-layer condensation structures are connected and the liquid collecting pipes 112 between the multi-layer condensation structures are connected, so that the gaseous refrigerant entering from the outside can be evenly distributed into the condenser 110, and the gaseous refrigerant entering from the outside and the liquid refrigerant condensed in the condenser 110 can be centrally collected, facilitating subsequent processing or storage.

[0085] The multi-layer condensation structure of the condenser 110 can be stacked along the first direction X, that is, one condensation structure is stacked on top of another condensation structure. The projections of the gas collecting pipes 111 of each condensation structure in the first direction X basically coincide, and the projections of the liquid collecting pipes 112 of each condensation structure in the first direction X also basically coincide. The gas collecting pipe 111 of one condensation structure is connected to the external gas pipe 130 for inputting gaseous refrigerant. The connection point can be at the top, bottom or middle position of the condenser 110, specifically depending on the design and requirements of the condenser 110. The liquid collecting pipe 112 of one condensation structure is connected to the external liquid pipe 140 for outputting liquid refrigerant, and the connection point can also be at the top, bottom or middle position of the condenser 110.

[0086] The gas pipe 130 is connected to the gas collecting pipe 111 of one condensation structure, and the liquid pipe 140 is connected to the liquid collecting pipe 112 of one condensation structure. The pipeline connection can be welding, such as brazing, fusion welding or manual arc welding. The structural strengthening connection can be fixed by an adapter, such as screw connection or riveting, etc. Installation interfaces are reserved at the positions where the evaporator 120 and the condenser 110 are connected to the gas pipe 130 and the liquid pipe 140, which can avoid deformation of the overall structure caused by direct welding.

[0087] The gas collecting pipes 111 of each condensation structure are stacked in sequence and connected to form a continuous gas dispersion system. The gaseous refrigerant can flow from one condensation structure to another through the gas collecting pipe 111 until it is finally evenly distributed in the condenser 110. The liquid collecting pipes 112 of each condensation structure are stacked in sequence and connected to form a continuous liquid collection system. The liquid refrigerant can flow from one condensation structure to another through the liquid collecting pipe 112 until it is finally discharged from the liquid collecting pipe 112 connected to the liquid pipe of one condensation structure.

[0088] It can be understood that the above structural design allows the gaseous refrigerant and the liquid refrigerant to flow between the condensers 110, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area and contact time, improving the condensation efficiency. At the same time, stacking multiple condensation structures together can also save space and simplify the pipeline layout.

[0089] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the radiator 10 further includes a connection block 150. The gas collecting pipes 111 of adjacent condensation structures and the liquid collecting pipes 112 of adjacent condensation structures are connected by corresponding connection blocks 150, and the connection block 150 is provided with through holes 151 for communicating adjacent gas collecting pipes 111 or adjacent liquid collecting pipes 112.

[0090] In the technical solution of the present application, the connection block 150 is a component for connecting the gas collecting pipes 111 or liquid collecting pipes 112 of adjacent condensation structures. The gas collecting pipe 111 is responsible for collecting and transporting the gaseous refrigerant in the condenser 110, and the liquid collecting pipe 112 is responsible for collecting and transporting the liquid refrigerant in the condenser 110. Between adjacent condensation structures, the gas collecting pipes 111 are connected by the connection block 150, and the liquid collecting pipes 112 are also connected by the connection block 150 to ensure that the gaseous refrigerant and the liquid refrigerant can flow smoothly between adjacent condensation structures. The number of connection blocks 150 between the gas collecting pipes 111 of adjacent condensation structures is greater than the number of connection blocks 150 between the liquid collecting pipes 112 of adjacent condensation structures, that is, the effective communication area between the gas collecting pipes 111 of adjacent condensation structures is greater than the effective communication area between the liquid collecting pipes 112 of adjacent condensation structures.

[0091] The connection block 150 is usually made of the same material as the gas collecting pipe 111 and the liquid collecting pipe 112 to ensure sealing performance and corrosion resistance, and is connected to the gas collecting pipe 111 or the liquid collecting pipe 112 by bolts, welding or other mechanical connection methods. During the connection process, sealing materials such as rubber gaskets or sealants can be used to ensure the airtightness of the connection.

[0092] The connection block 150 is provided with a plurality of through holes 151. The through holes 151 are the core part of the connection block 150 for communicating adjacent gas collecting pipes 111 or adjacent gas collecting pipes 111, enabling the gaseous refrigerant or the liquid refrigerant to flow from one gas collecting pipe 111 or liquid collecting pipe 112 into another, ensuring the continuous flow of the gaseous refrigerant or the liquid refrigerant in the condenser i10. The plurality of through holes 151 are evenly distributed on the connection block 150 along the second direction Y, which can provide sufficient flow rate to ensure the optimal flow path and efficiency.

[0093] It can be understood that by connecting the gas collecting pipes 111 and the liquid collecting pipes 112 of adjacent condensation structures through the connecting block 150 provided with a plurality of through holes 151 respectively, the smooth flow of gaseous refrigerant and liquid refrigerant in the condenser 110 can be ensured, guaranteeing the efficient operation and stability of the system.

[0094] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the connecting block 150 has a support surface 152 that is disposed away from each other and is used to fit against the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides, and the through hole 151 penetrates through the support surface 152 of the connecting block 150.

[0095] In the technical solution of the present application, the connecting block 150 is a specific structural member for connecting the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides. The connecting block 150 is provided with support surfaces 152 that are disposed away from each other, respectively facing the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides. The shape of the support surface 152 fits tightly with the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides, preventing fluid leakage or system instability, and being able to effectively withstand fluid pressure and temperature changes.

[0096] The through hole 151 penetrates through the support surfaces 152 that are disposed away from each other of the connecting block 150 and is used to enable fluid to flow between the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides. The diameter of the through hole 151 is determined according to factors such as fluid flow rate, pressure drop, and system efficiency. The pressure drop is the pressure difference between the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides of the through hole 151. A larger through hole 151 can allow a higher flow rate, but it will increase the pressure borne by the through hole 151 and the pressure difference between the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 connected through the through hole 151, while a smaller through hole 151 will limit the flow rate but can reduce the pressure borne by the through hole 151 and the pressure difference between the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 connected through the through hole 151. The through holes 151 are evenly distributed in position along the second direction Y on the connecting block 150, which can ensure the uniform distribution of gaseous refrigerant and liquid refrigerant in the system.

[0097] It can be understood that the connecting block 150 plays a role in connecting the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides in the condenser 110 system. By tightly fitting the support surfaces 152 that are disposed away from each other with the gas collecting pipes 111 or the liquid collecting pipes 112 on both sides, and allowing fluid to be smoothly transmitted through the through holes 151 penetrating the support surfaces 152, the stable operation and high performance of the condenser 110 system are ensured.

[0098] In some embodiments, as Figure 3As shown, the radiator 10 further includes: an air pipe 130 and a liquid pipe 140. The outlet of the evaporator 120 is communicated with the header pipe 111 through the air pipe 130, and the inlet of the evaporator 120 is communicated with the liquid collecting pipe 112 through the liquid pipe 140. The air pipe 130 is connected to the header pipe 111 of one of the condensation structures, and the liquid pipe 140 is connected to the liquid collecting pipe 112 of one of the condensation structures.

[0099] The air pipe 130 is respectively connected to the outlet of the evaporator 120 and the header pipe 111 of the condenser 110. The refrigerant absorbs heat in the evaporator 120 and evaporates into a gas, and then flows through the air pipe 130 to the condenser 110 to release heat and condense into a liquid.

[0100] The air pipe 130 can be made of flexible or rigid materials, such as metals like aluminum and stainless steel or specific plastic materials, which can withstand a certain pressure and have a certain heat resistance. At the same time, appropriate connection methods are designed, such as flange connection, threaded connection or quick connectors, etc., and sealing materials or gaskets are used at the connection points to prevent gas leakage and ensure the smooth transmission of gas. The diameter and length of the air pipe 130 can be determined according to the specific dimensions of the evaporator 120 and the condenser 110 and the gas flow rate.

[0101] The liquid pipe 140 is respectively connected to the inlet of the evaporator 120 and the liquid collecting pipe 112 of the condenser 110. The refrigerant releases heat in the condenser 110 and condenses into a liquid, and then flows through the liquid pipe 140 to the evaporator 120 to absorb heat and evaporate into a gas.

[0102] The liquid pipe 140 can be made of materials that are corrosion-resistant, high-pressure-resistant, and resistant to high and low temperatures, such as metals like aluminum and stainless steel or specific plastic materials. The diameter of the liquid pipe 140 is determined according to the fluid flow rate, and the wall thickness is determined according to the pressure-bearing capacity of the liquid pipe 140. The connection points of the liquid pipe 140 with the inlet of the evaporator 120 and the outlet of the condenser 110 can be connected by welding, threaded connection or flange connection, etc. These connection methods can ensure good sealing performance and sufficient strength to prevent liquid leakage. In some cases, the liquid pipe 140 also needs to have a certain flexibility to adapt to the vibration and displacement during system installation and operation.

[0103] The air pipe 130 is connected to the header pipe 111 of one of the condensation structures, and the liquid pipe 140 is connected to the liquid collecting pipe 112 of one of the condensation structures. Among them, the pipeline connection can be welding, such as brazing, fusion welding or manual arc welding, and the structural strengthening connection can be fixed by adapters, such as screw connection or riveting, etc. Installation interfaces are reserved at the connection positions of the evaporator 120 and the condenser 110 with the air pipe 130 and the liquid pipe 140 to avoid deformation of the overall structure caused by direct welding.

[0104] In this embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, the trachea 130 is respectively connected to the outlet of the evaporator 120 and the gas collecting pipe 111 of the condenser 110, and the liquid pipe 140 is respectively connected to the inlet of the evaporator 120 and the liquid collecting pipe 112 of the condenser 110. The refrigerant absorbs heat in the evaporator 120 and evaporates into a gas, then flows through the trachea 130 to the condenser 110 to release heat and condenses into a liquid, and finally returns to the evaporator 120 through the liquid pipe 140 to complete a complete refrigeration cycle. This cycle is repeated continuously to ensure the normal operation of the refrigeration system.

[0105] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, there are multiple first connection points between any two adjacent gas collecting pipes 111, and the multiple first connection points are distributed along the length direction of the gas collecting pipe 111. There are multiple second connection points between any two adjacent liquid collecting pipes 112, and the multiple second connection points are distributed along the length direction of the liquid collecting pipe 112.

[0106] There are multiple first connection points between any two adjacent gas collecting pipes 111. The multiple first connection points are evenly distributed on the gas collecting pipe 111 along the length direction of the gas collecting pipe 111, that is, the second direction Y, and are used to evenly distribute the gaseous refrigerant from one gas collecting pipe 111 to another gas collecting pipe 111, which helps the concentrated and uniform flow of the gaseous refrigerant between the gas collecting pipes 111 and reduces the risk of pressure loss or blockage. There are also multiple second connection points between any two adjacent liquid collecting pipes 112. The second connection points are evenly distributed on the liquid collecting pipe 112 along the length direction of the liquid collecting pipe 112 and are used to evenly distribute the liquid refrigerant from one liquid collecting pipe 112 to another liquid collecting pipe 112, which helps the uniform flow and concentration of the liquid refrigerant between the liquid collecting pipes 112 and reduces the risk of liquid retention or leakage.

[0107] It can be understood that by setting multiple evenly distributed first connection points between any two adjacent gas collecting pipes 111 and multiple evenly distributed second connection points between any two adjacent liquid collecting pipes 112, the uniform distribution and flow of the gaseous refrigerant and the liquid refrigerant in the condenser 110 can be ensured, blockage, leakage or other potential problems can be reduced, and the efficiency, stability and safety of the system can be improved.

Through the mutual connection of the internal evaporator 120, condenser 110, gas pipe 130, and liquid pipe 140 of the radiator 10, the liquid refrigerant absorbs heat and evaporates in the evaporator 120, thereby cooling the surrounding environment of the evaporator 120. The gaseous refrigerant enters the condenser 110 through the gas pipe 130, releases heat and condenses into a liquid in the condenser 110, and then enters the evaporator 120 through the liquid pipe 140 to complete a complete refrigeration cycle, which can ensure the normal operation of the refrigeration system.
