Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of heat dissipation of automobile lamps, and particularly relates to a heat dissipation shell of an automobile headlight driver with a multi-layer structure. Background Art

[0002] Currently, automotive lighting is becoming increasingly complex, with headlight drivers often integrating multiple intelligent control functions. Because these drivers often experience significant heat generation during operation, the housing housing housing the driver is often designed with a certain degree of heat dissipation during production.

[0003] However, although the driver housing has a certain heat dissipation capacity, its heat dissipation capacity is relatively limited because the current existing technology generally adopts a passive heat dissipation method. Therefore, during the design, whether its structure is reasonable determines the quality of the heat dissipation capacity.

[0004] The disadvantages of existing automotive headlight driver housings are that they are typically manufactured from a single material, PBT-GF15 (15% glass fiber reinforced polybutylene terephthalate), which has insufficient heat dissipation performance, cannot shield electronic signals, and is non-conductive. Alternatively, if the housing is manufactured from a single material, ADC12 (die-cast aluminum alloy), the heat dissipation performance may be adequate, but the price is high and the weight requirement is limited. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a heat dissipation housing for a car headlight driver with a multi-layer structure to solve the problems mentioned above. The heat dissipation housing for a car headlight driver provided by the present invention has the characteristics of good heat dissipation effect.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a multi-layer structural design of a heat dissipation housing for a car headlight driver, comprising a lower housing, the lower housing being made of aluminum alloy, a PCBA mainboard being installed inside the lower housing, an upper housing being connected above the lower housing, the upper housing comprising an outer shell portion, a connecting terminal being connected to the outer shell portion, the outer shell portion comprising a connecting portion, a heat dissipation portion being connected inside the connecting portion, an aluminum sheet corresponding to the heat dissipation portion being connected inside the outer shell portion, wherein the connecting portion is made of PBT-GF15 material, the heat dissipation portion is made of graphite nylon material, and the connecting portion, the heat dissipation portion and the aluminum sheet are integrally formed by injection molding.

[0007] In order to ensure the heat dissipation effect of the lower shell, heat dissipation fins are further connected to the bottom surface of the lower shell.

[0008] To ensure the stability of the connection between the upper and lower shells, a sealing groove is further provided on the edge of the lower shell. A pressing edge is provided on the connecting portion to correspond to the sealing groove. Several clamping blocks are provided on the outer side of the edge of the lower shell. The connecting portion is provided with a buckle corresponding to the clamping blocks.

[0009] In order to press on the PCBA mainboard, limit the PCBA mainboard and ensure the stability of the PCBA mainboard installation, a number of limiting ribs are further provided on the inner side of the connecting part.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0011] 1. The shell of the present invention includes a connecting portion, the interior of the connecting portion is connected to a heat dissipation portion, and the interior of the shell is connected to an aluminum sheet corresponding to the heat dissipation portion. The connecting portion is made of PBT-GF15 material, and the heat dissipation portion is made of graphite nylon.

Compared with the use of a single die-cast aluminum alloy material, it can not only ensure good heat dissipation effect, but also reduce its own weight and cost. Compared with the use of a single PBT-GF15 material, the setting of the aluminum sheet enables the upper shell to have the function of shielding electronic signals;

[0012] 2. The connection part of the utility model is made of PBT-GF15 material, which has good elasticity, so that the upper shell and the lower shell can be connected by buckles and blocks;
