[0022] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connect," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection, electrical connection; direct connection, indirect connection through an intermediate medium, internal communication between two components, or interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0023] The following is a further description with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0024] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the present invention provides an automotive LED headlamp, comprising a substrate 1, a heat pipe, a heat sink 2, a heat dissipation fan 3, and a chuck 7. The substrate 1 is made of copper and is provided with an LED lamp bead group 4. The LED lamp bead group 4 is composed of six LED lamp beads arranged in an array, and the six LED lamp beads are arranged in an array according to two rows and three columns or two columns and three rows. The heat dissipation fan 3 is provided at the end of the heat sink 2 to enhance the heat dissipation capacity of the heat sink 2. The chuck 7 is sleeved on the heat sink 2 and is used to fix the heat sink 2 to the lamp cavity. A limiting protrusion 204 is provided on the heat sink 2. The chuck 7 has a sleeve portion, and a limiting groove 701 is provided on the inner wall of the sleeve portion to match the limiting protrusion 204. When the chuck 7 is sleeved on the heat sink 2, the limiting protrusion 204 is inserted into the limiting groove 701, thereby effectively fixing the heat sink 2.

[0025] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3-Figure 5As shown, the heat pipes include ten heat pipes, namely four first heat pipes 5, four second heat pipes 6 and two third heat pipes 8. The length direction of each heat pipe is along the length direction of the substrate 1. The two third heat pipes 8 are respectively arranged on both sides of the substrate 1. A group of LED lamp bead groups 4, two first heat pipes 5 and two second heat pipes 6 are respectively arranged on both sides of the substrate 1. A first heat pipe 5 and a second heat pipe 6 are respectively arranged on both sides of the LED lamp bead group 4. The first heat pipe 5 and the second heat pipe 6 on the same side of the LED lamp bead group 4 are respectively located outside the two ends of the LED lamp bead group 4 to leave a avoidance. The avoidance ensures that the first heat pipe 5 and the second heat pipe 6 do not block the light emitted by the LED lamp bead group 4.

[0026] The arrangement of the heat pipes can also be understood as follows: when the base plate 1 is positioned vertically, the four first heat pipes 5 are positioned above the LED lamp group 4, the four second heat pipes 6 are positioned below the LED lamp group 4, and the two third heat pipes 8 are positioned on either side of the LED lamp group 4. Above the escape hatch, six heat pipes are arranged in two groups, each consisting of one third heat pipe 8 and two first heat pipes 5. Each group of heat pipes forms a "P" shape, wrapping around both sides of the base plate 1. Below the escape hatch, six heat pipes are arranged in two groups, each consisting of one third heat pipe 8 and two second heat pipes 6. Each group of heat pipes forms a "P" shape, wrapping around both sides of the base plate 1. In other words, except for the escape hatch, six heat pipes are arranged in two groups at all other locations on the base plate 1, each group of heat pipes forming a "P" shape, wrapping around both sides of the base plate 1. Both the first and second heat pipes 5, 6 are wire mesh heat pipes, with their wicks made of copper mesh, which provides greater heat transfer efficiency. The function of the heat pipe is to quickly transfer the heat of the substrate 1 to the heat sink 2. A heat sink 3 is provided on the heat sink 2. The heat sink 3 can quickly dissipate the heat transferred to the heat sink 2 by the heat pipe, thereby effectively improving the heat dissipation capacity of the present invention.

[0027] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the heat sink 2 is provided with a fixed cavity 201 for accommodating the substrate 1 and the heat pipe. When the substrate 1 and the heat pipe are arranged in the fixed cavity 201, each heat pipe is close to the cavity wall of the fixed cavity 201. The heat sink 2 is made of aluminum alloy, which is economical and has strong thermal conductivity. The heat sink 2 is coated with a heat dissipation layer, which is obtained by spraying a graphene heat dissipation paint on the heat sink 2 and drying it. The heat dissipation layer can enhance the heat dissipation capacity of the heat sink 2, and accelerate the transfer of heat generated by the LED lamp bead group 4 and transferred to the heat sink 2 through each heat pipe to the external environment. The heat sink 2 is provided with a light-emitting groove 202 leading to the fixed cavity 201. The light-emitting groove 202 is aligned with the LED lamp bead group 4 and the avoidance port, so that the LED lamp bead group 4 and the avoidance port are exposed.

[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the heat sink 2 includes a first heat sink and a second heat sink that are mirror images and symmetrically arranged. The first and second heat sinks are fixedly connected by screws. The end of the heat sink 2 where the cooling fan 3 is mounted is provided with a wire hole 203, through which the control and power lines of the cooling fan 3 pass.

[0029] In some exemplary embodiments, substrate 1 is provided with a temperature sensor, such as an NTC thermistor temperature sensor. Cooling fan 3 includes a driver, and the drive motor of cooling fan 3 is a variable-frequency motor. The driver includes an MCU chip, and both the temperature sensor and the drive motor are electrically connected to the MCU chip. A control program is implemented in the MCU chip to map the temperature detected by the temperature sensor to the operating frequency of the drive motor. In this way, the MCU chip can control the drive motor to operate at an appropriate speed based on the temperature detected by the temperature sensor, thereby achieving long-term energy savings.

[0030] In summary, the present invention provides a clearance opening between the first heat pipe 5 and the second heat pipe 6, preventing them from blocking the light emitted by the LED lamp bead group 4. The present invention also includes a third heat pipe 8. Compared to the prior art, each heat pipe in the present invention has a larger contact area with the heat sink 2, allowing for faster transfer of heat generated by the LED lamp bead group 4 to the heat sink 2, effectively improving the heat dissipation effect. Furthermore, the corners of the substrate 1 in the present invention are protected by the heat sink 2, preventing damage from bumps.

[0031] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
