[0022] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, the following will provide a more comprehensive description of the present invention in conjunction with the specific embodiments. The specific embodiments provide preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of the present invention.

[0023] In the present invention, "one or several" refers to any one, any two or more of the listed items. Among them, "several" refers to any two or more of the listed items.

[0024] The phrase "optionally" or the like in this disclosure refers to embodiments of the disclosure that may provide certain beneficial effects under certain circumstances. However, other embodiments may also be optional under the same or other circumstances. Furthermore, the reference to one or more optional embodiments does not imply that other embodiments are unavailable, nor is it intended to exclude other embodiments from the scope of this disclosure.

[0025] See Figures 1 to 6As shown, the utility model provides a split-type water-cooling device for cooling an industrial camera 200. The water-cooling device includes a plurality of cooling blocks 1 that wrap around the periphery of the industrial camera 200. It is understandable that the water-cooling device includes two cooling blocks 1, or more than two cooling blocks 1, and the plurality of cooling blocks 1 can wrap around the periphery of the industrial camera 200 after being assembled together, and the cooling blocks 1 are in direct or indirect contact with the industrial camera 200, and heat can be transferred between the two. The assembly method of the cooling block 1 is preferably a detachable connection method, for example, threaded holes are provided on the cooling block 1, and the plurality of cooling blocks 1 are assembled together through threaded connectors. Choosing a detachable connection method to assemble the cooling block 1 facilitates the subsequent disassembly of the cooling block 1, but the assembly method of the cooling block 1 is not limited thereto, and the plurality of cooling blocks 1 can also be assembled together in a fixed connection method, such as bonding, welding, etc. In addition, the material of the cooling block 1 can be selected from metal materials with good thermal conductivity, such as copper, aluminum, etc., or non-metallic materials with good thermal conductivity.

[0026] Furthermore, the water cooling device also includes a water inlet channel 11 and a water outlet channel 12 provided on the cooling block 1. It can be understood that the water inlet channel 11 and the water outlet channel 12 can be provided on different cooling blocks 1, and the number of water inlet channels 11 and water outlet channels 12 is not limited. For example, the water inlet channel 11 can be set to one or more, and the water outlet channel 12 can also be set to one or more.

[0027] Furthermore, each cooling block 1 is provided with a cooling channel 13 for circulating cooling water. After multiple cooling blocks 1 are assembled, each cooling channel 13 is connected to form an annular cooling channel 13 surrounding the industrial camera. The water inlet channel 11 and the water outlet channel 12 are connected to the annular cooling channel 13, so that cooling water continuously enters the annular cooling channel 13 from the water inlet channel 11, takes away the heat of the industrial camera 200 and then enters the water outlet channel 12, thereby preventing the industrial camera 200 from malfunctioning or shutting down due to excessive temperature.

[0028] The present invention's split-type water-cooling device is configured with multiple cooling blocks 1, making it easy to install and remove. The annular cooling channel 13 formed by the assembled cooling blocks 1 surrounds the periphery of the industrial camera 200, allowing cooling and heat dissipation from all four sides of the industrial camera 200. This not only speeds up the cooling of the industrial camera 200 but also ensures uniform cooling, keeping the temperature of the industrial camera 200 stable within the normal operating temperature range. This solves the problem of accuracy changes caused by temperature increases in the industrial camera 200.

[0029] Furthermore, the water cooling device also includes a water inlet 14 and a water outlet 15 located on the end face of the cooling block 1. The water inlet 14 is arranged at one end of the water inlet channel 11, and the water outlet 15 is arranged at one end of the water outlet channel 12. The water inlet 14 and the water outlet 15 are both provided with a pipe joint 16 connected to the water pipe. Specifically, the pipe joint 16 includes an inlet pipe joint installed at the water inlet 14, and a water outlet pipe joint installed at the water outlet 15. The water pipe includes an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. The inlet pipe is connected to the inlet channel 11 via the inlet pipe joint to continuously supply cooling water to the cooling channel 13 in the cooling block 1. The outlet pipe is connected to the outlet channel 12 via the outlet pipe joint to discharge the cooling water that has absorbed the heat of the industrial camera 200 from the cooling block 1 through the outlet channel 12, so that the water cooling device can continuously cool the industrial camera 200 and ensure the accuracy of the industrial camera 200 during operation.

[0030] In a specific embodiment, each cooling block 1 is provided with multiple groups of cooling channels 13, and each cooling block 1 is provided with a threaded hole. After the multiple cooling blocks 1 are threadedly connected by screws, the cooling channels 13 at corresponding positions are connected in sequence to form multiple groups of annular cooling channels 13, thereby further accelerating the cooling speed of the industrial camera 200 and ensuring the accuracy of the industrial camera 200 during operation.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the water cooling device comprises two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 arranged in a mirror image. Figure 2 As shown, the two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 are detachably connected, facilitating installation and removal of the water cooling device. Specifically, the two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 are a first L-shaped cooling block 101 and a second L-shaped cooling block 102. In this embodiment, the structures of the water inlet channel 11 and the water outlet channel 12 are also identical. Therefore, when processing the L-shaped cooling blocks 1, there is no need to distinguish between the water inlet channel 11 and the water outlet channel 12. Since the two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 have the same structure, the processing and manufacturing costs of the water cooling device are greatly reduced.

[0032] Furthermore, the L-shaped cooling block 1 includes a first cooling plate 17 and a second cooling plate 18 arranged vertically. When two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 are assembled, the first cooling plate 17 of the first L-shaped cooling block 101 is connected to the second cooling plate 18' of the second L-shaped cooling block 102, and the second cooling plate 18 of the first L-shaped cooling block 101 is connected to the first cooling plate 17' of the second L-shaped cooling block 102. Figure 2 In this embodiment, the water inlet channel 11 is provided on the first cooling plate 17 of the first L-shaped cooling block 101, and the water outlet channel 12 is provided on the first cooling plate 17' of the second L-shaped cooling block 102. Of course, the locations of the water inlet channel 11 and the water outlet channel 12 are not limited to this.

[0033] A first sealing groove 171 is provided on the end face of the first cooling plate 17 away from the second cooling plate 18. The first sealing groove 171 is connected to the cooling channel 13. The diameter of the first sealing groove 171 is larger than the diameter of the cooling channel 13. An annular seal, such as a sealing ring, is provided in the first sealing groove 171. By providing the annular seal, it does not affect the flow of cooling water in the cooling channel 13 and can also seal the position of the joint of the two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 to avoid leakage at the joint.

[0034] Furthermore, a first docking port 181 is provided on the side of the second cooling plate 18 close to the first cooling plate 17, and the first docking port 181 is connected to the cooling channel 13. After the two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 are connected, the first docking port 181 of the first L-shaped cooling block 101 is connected to the cooling channel 13 at the first sealing groove 171 of the second L-shaped cooling block 102, so that the water cooling device forms an annular cooling channel 13.

[0035] Furthermore, the L-shaped cooling block 1 includes a plurality of cooling channels 13 spaced apart along a first direction, and a plurality of first threaded holes 172 and a plurality of first sealing grooves 171 are further provided on the end surface of the first cooling plate 17 away from the second cooling plate 18, and the first threaded holes 172 and the first sealing grooves 171 are spaced apart along the first direction; a plurality of second threaded through holes 182 and a plurality of first docking interfaces 181 are provided on the side of the second cooling plate 18 close to the first cooling plate 17, and the second threaded through holes 182 and the first docking interfaces 181 are spaced apart along the first direction, the first threaded holes 172 and the first sealing grooves 171 are spaced apart, and the second threaded through holes 182 and the first docking interfaces 181 are spaced apart, which can improve the connection strength of the two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 and improve the reliability of the water cooling device during application while providing a plurality of cooling channels 13 and without increasing the volume of the water cooling device.

[0036] Specifically, the water inlet channel 11 and the water outlet channel 12 are extended along the first direction, the cooling channel 13 located on the first cooling plate 17 is extended along the second direction, and the cooling channel 13 located on the second cooling plate 18 is extended along the third direction. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. For specific direction settings, refer to Figure 1 shown.

[0037] In other embodiments, the water cooling device may be in the form of three cooling blocks 1, for example, one L-shaped cooling block 1 and two long cooling blocks 1 spliced ​​together. The water cooling device may also be in the form of four cooling blocks 1, for example, four long cooling blocks 1 spliced ​​together. Compared with the embodiments of three cooling blocks 1 and four cooling blocks 1, providing two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 can reduce the number of splicing locations of the water cooling device that may leak, thereby reducing the risk of leakage of the water cooling device.

[0038] In actual application, the industrial camera 200 and the lens 300 are used together. The industrial camera 200 and the lens 300 will follow Figure 1 The first direction assembly in Figure 1 As shown, the first direction is a vertical direction, the industrial camera 200 is located on the upper side, and the lens 300 is located on the lower side.

[0039] In one embodiment, the water cooling device further includes a leakage detection strip 2 disposed on the underside of the cooling block 1, specifically, on the side of the cooling block 1 near the lens 2. The leakage detection strip 2 is used to detect leakage between two adjacent cooling blocks 1. If leakage occurs at the joints of the cooling blocks 1, the leakage will flow to the underside of the cooling blocks 1. The leakage detection strip 2 can promptly detect the leakage point, thus preventing the problem of poor cooling effect of the industrial camera 200 caused by leakage of the water cooling device.

[0040] Furthermore, the water cooling device is provided with multiple leakage detection strips 2 and multiple connecting plates 3 that are detachably connected to the underside of the cooling block 1. Each connecting plate 3 is mounted with a leakage detection strip 2. Specifically, the connecting plate 3 includes a first fixing portion 31 and a first connecting portion 32 that is perpendicularly bent from one end of the first fixing portion 31. The first fixing portion 31 is connected to the cooling block 1 via a threaded connector. The leakage detection strips 2 are bonded to the first connecting portion 32, and the detection surface of the leakage detection strips 2 abuts the underside of the cooling block 1.

[0041] In a specific embodiment, the water cooling device also includes a thermal pad 4 clamped between each cooling block 1 and the industrial camera 200. The thermal pad 4 is made of a polymer with a glass fiber base material. After two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 or multiple cooling blocks 1 are assembled, the elastic thermal pad 4 can fit tightly to the outer surface of the industrial camera 200, further improving the heat transfer efficiency between the cooling block 1 and the industrial camera 200, and accelerating the heat dissipation of the industrial camera 200.

[0042] Furthermore, the L-shaped cooling block 1 is provided with a plurality of third threaded holes 19. The surface of the industrial camera 200 is provided with threaded mounting holes that cooperate with the third threaded holes 19. The threaded connector is sequentially passed through the third threaded holes 19 and the threaded mounting holes to connect the water cooling device to the industrial camera 200, thereby ensuring that the water cooling device effectively cools the industrial camera 200. In addition, during actual use of the industrial camera 200, a lens 300 is provided on the lower side of the industrial camera 200. The industrial camera 200 and the lens 300 must be maintained in the adjusted position to ensure the photographic accuracy of the industrial camera 200. Since the two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 or multiple cooling blocks 1 of the water cooling device wrap around the periphery of the industrial camera 200, the industrial camera 200 can be restricted from rotating in the vertical direction, thereby further ensuring the accuracy of the industrial camera 200 during use.

[0043] The water cooling device of the present invention is universal and can be applied to most industrial cameras 200. The water cooling device includes a plurality of cooling blocks 1. After the plurality of cooling blocks 1 are assembled, an annular cooling channel 13 surrounding the industrial camera 200 can be formed, so that each surface of the industrial camera 200 can be cooled and cooled, which not only improves the cooling speed of the industrial camera 200, but also ensures that the industrial camera 200 is cooled evenly, so that the temperature of the industrial camera 200 is stabilized within the normal operating temperature range, thereby solving the problem of accuracy change caused by the temperature increase of the industrial camera 200. Secondly, the water cooling device is provided with a liquid leakage detection device, which avoids the impact of liquid leakage on the product or components, and increases reliability and safety. Furthermore, after two L-shaped cooling blocks 1 or multiple cooling blocks 1 are assembled, the elastic thermal pad 4 can press the outer surface of the industrial camera 200, and the heat transfer efficiency between the cooling block 1 and the industrial camera 200 is further improved through the thermal pad 4, thereby accelerating the heat dissipation of the industrial camera 200.

[0044] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
