[0002] A large number of electronic devices involve heat dissipation issues, and radiators are needed to dissipate heat for the electronic devices.

[0003] The water-cooled radiator commonly used in existing electronic equipment is mainly formed by drilling deep holes on multiple surfaces of copper material to form water channels, which are then blocked with plugs, and then water nozzles are installed at both ends of the water channels to allow the coolant to enter and exit.

[0004] The plug is more likely to age and weaken its sealing performance under long-term operating conditions, and there is a risk of plugging and leaking. During processing, it is necessary to process and assemble the structure at the water channel port. For example, if the water nozzle is fixed by screwing, it is necessary to switch tools during processing to process the threaded structure at the water channel port. The processing procedure becomes complicated, affecting production efficiency. In addition, the threaded structure of the water channel port is unified, but the specifications of the water nozzles are different, which leads to low applicability. Utility Model Content

An end of the first flow channel away from the water inlet and an end of the second flow channel away from the water outlet are respectively connected to two ends of the third flow channel, and a plug is also provided. The plug is fixed to the main body by a stir friction welding process and closes the opening of the third flow channel.

[0007] Preferably, the side of the main body away from the heat source is a curved surface.

[0008] Preferably, the main body and the plug are made of AL6063-T5 aluminum alloy.

[0009] Preferably, the main body is formed with a vertically extending positioning groove, and the top and bottom ends of the positioning groove are open.

[0010] Preferably, the main body is in the shape of an elongated strip as a whole, and the front end wall and the rear end wall of the main body are formed with the positioning groove.

[0011] Preferably, the cross section of the positioning groove is trapezoidal.

[0012] Preferably, the plug is long and flat, the flat surface is provided with a groove suitable for the plug, the partial bottom wall of the groove is provided with the third flow channel, the plug is fixed in the groove and the side of the plug facing the outside is flush with the flat surface.

[0013] Preferably, the first flow channel and the channel of the water inlet nozzle are an integrally formed structure, and the second flow channel and the channel of the water outlet nozzle are an integrally formed structure.
