[0018] In order to more clearly understand the technical means of the present invention and implement it according to the contents of the specification, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, a temperature equalizing plate with a high pressure-resistant structure includes an upper cover plate 1, an upper cover capillary layer 2, a lower cover capillary layer 3 and a lower cover plate 4. The upper cover capillary layer 2 and the lower cover capillary layer 3 are arranged in a cavity between the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 4, and a support column structure 5 is provided between the upper cover capillary layer 2 and the lower cover capillary layer 3.
[0020] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the upper cover plate 1 is flat, and the lower cover plate 4 is provided with a groove 41. The groove 41 forms a cavity between the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 4. The cavity is filled with liquid working medium and is in a vacuum-sealed state.
[0021] Furthermore, the opposite end surfaces of the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 4 are provided with a liquid injection hole 6 for connecting the cavity with the outside world. The liquid injection hole 6 is pressed and sealed after the cavity is filled with liquid and vacuumed.
[0022] The upper capillary layer 2 is a copper mesh layer, located below the upper cover plate 1, and is used to absorb and conduct heat. The upper capillary layer 2 is sintered with the copper mesh layer and the upper cover plate 1 in a diffusion furnace. The capillary structure of the copper mesh layer enhances capillary force, driving the working fluid to flow, resulting in a simple structure and low cost. The lower capillary layer 3 is a copper powder layer, located on the lower cover plate 4. The lower capillary layer 3 has a porous capillary structure formed by sintering copper powder. This porous capillary structure further increases the circulation speed of the working fluid and improves heat dissipation efficiency.
[0023] The support column structure 5 is a plurality of cylinders evenly arranged between the copper mesh layer and the copper powder layer, and the two ends of the cylinders are respectively in contact with the copper mesh layer and the lower cover plate 4; under the action of external force, the cylinders play a uniform supporting role to prevent the cavity between the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 4 from collapsing and deforming under force, thereby ensuring the evaporation space between the copper mesh layer and the copper powder layer. The cylinders can be copper columns, which are simultaneously burned into shape during the sintering process of the copper powder layer.
[0024] Further, such as Figure 3 The copper powder layer comprises multiple evenly spaced cylindrical rings 31 formed from sintered copper powder. The cylinder is contained within these rings, which prevent it from twisting, rotating, or shifting. Furthermore, the porous capillary structure of the cylinder's sidewalls further increases the evaporative heat exchange area, enhancing the evaporative heat transfer effect and improving heat transfer efficiency.
[0025] Furthermore, the free end of the cylindrical ring 31 contacts the capillary layer 2 of the upper cover to maximize the evaporation heat exchange area. At the same time, the cylindrical ring 31 also guides the cooled working liquid, allowing the liquid to reflux faster to form a cycle and improve the guidance effect.
[0026] Furthermore, mounting portions 42 are respectively provided at the four corners of the groove 41, and the upper end surfaces of the mounting portions 42 are in contact with the upper cover plate 1. Fixing holes are respectively provided at corresponding positions of the mounting portions 42 and the upper cover plate 1, and fasteners are passed through the fixing holes to achieve fixed connection between the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 4.
[0027] The copper mesh layer and the copper powder layer are both provided with avoidance openings at positions corresponding to the mounting portion 42 , and the avoidance openings are provided for the mounting portion 42 to pass through when the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 4 are fixed.
[0028] Furthermore, a long support structure 7 is provided between the copper mesh layer and the copper powder layer. This support structure 7 is positioned horizontally and has a set height along its cross-section. Its upper and lower sides respectively contact the copper mesh layer and the copper powder layer. This support structure 7 strengthens the overall structure of the vapor chamber in both the longitudinal and transverse directions, providing the entire chamber with greater compressive strength and preventing structural deformation caused by high assembly pressure.
[0029] Furthermore, the long support structure 7 is in the form of a long cylinder, so that a line contact is formed between the long support structure 7 and the copper mesh layer, thereby minimizing the capillary structure occupancy of the copper mesh layer while ensuring the compressive resistance.
[0030] To prevent the elongated cylindrical body from shifting during use, a slot 32 is provided on the copper powder layer for receiving the elongated cylindrical body. In this embodiment, the elongated cylindrical body can be a stainless steel column or a copper alloy column, which can be simultaneously burned into and formed during the sintering process of the copper powder layer.
[0031] Furthermore, to ensure a more uniform reinforcement structure for the heat spreader and to prevent interference with the backflow of the working fluid within the copper powder layer, multiple groups of elongated cylinders are provided, each extending outward in a star-shaped pattern from the heat source area. In this embodiment, the heat source is positioned in the center of the lower cover plate 4, and four groups of elongated cylinders are provided, each extending outward from the heat source area toward the four corners.
[0032] During operation, the working liquid is located at the heat source and evaporates to form gas, which then rises. The gas is diffused to the entire upper cover plate 1 through the copper mesh layer. After the gas contacts the upper cover plate 1, it condenses to form liquid. Part of the liquid flows back to the copper powder layer along the cylindrical ring 31. Under the action of the porous capillary structure of the copper powder layer, it flows back to the heat source area and evaporates again, thus completing the cycle.
[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
