DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] See also Figure 1-3 , the utility model provides a technical solution:
[0021] In the present technical solution, a heat dissipation device for a power module includes a power module 1, an upper cover plate 2 is hingedly connected to the upper wall of the power module 1, an air inlet 3 is opened on the upper wall of the upper cover plate 2, and a heat dissipation device 4 is installed in the air inlet 3;
[0022] The heat dissipation device 4 includes a fan 41, a fixed grille 42, a sliding grille 43, a threaded hole 44, and a screw 45. The fan 41 is installed in the air inlet 3 and is electrically connected to the power module 1. The fixed grille 42 is installed on the lower wall of the upper cover 2 and is arranged below the fan 41. The lower wall of the fixed grille 42 has a threaded hole 44, and a screw 45 is screwed into the threaded hole 44. The sliding grille 43 is installed at the end of the screw 45 and is arranged between the fixed grille 42 and the fan 41.
[0023] The sliding grilles 43 and the fixed grilles 42 are arranged alternately, and the sliding grilles 43 can close the fixed grilles 42;
[0024] In this technical solution, when the device is operating normally, the fixed grille 42 and the sliding grille 43 are not in contact with each other, so that the airflow channel is unobstructed. At this time, the airflow generated by the fan 41 is blown outward, taking away the heat inside the power module 1, cooling the electrical components on the circuit board 14 inside the power module 1, and ensuring the stability of the operation of the power module 1.
[0025] When the fan 41 in the heat dissipation device 4 needs to be cleaned, the screw 45 can be rotated to lower the sliding grille 43 and fit together with the fixed grille 42. At this time, the sliding grille 43 will close the fixed grille 42, so that it separates the fan 41 from the power module 1, thereby preventing dust on the fan 41 from falling into the inside of the power module 1 when cleaning the fan 41.
[0026] In some technical solutions, the power module 1 includes a shell 11, an air outlet slot 12, a dustproof net 13 and a circuit board 14. The side wall of the shell 11 is provided with an air outlet slot 12, and the inner wall of the air outlet slot 12 is installed with a dustproof net 13. The circuit board 14 is installed on the inner wall of the shell 11. The circuit board 14 is electrically connected to the external power supply. The sockets of the circuit board 14 all pass through the side wall of the shell 11, and the upper cover 2 is buckled on the upper wall of the shell 11.
[0027] In this technical solution, external air will be filtered through the dustproof net 13 before entering the shell 11, and then discharged from the shell 11 through the suction of the fan 41. In this process, the heat inside the power module 1 will be taken away, thereby cooling the power module 1.
[0028] In some technical solutions, a locking bolt 5 is inserted into the upper wall of the upper cover plate 2, and a connecting hole 6 is opened on the upper wall of the shell 11. The connecting hole 6 is provided with an internal thread, and the locking bolt 5 can be screwed into the connecting hole 6.
[0029] In some technical solutions, a connecting sleeve 7 is installed on the side wall of the sliding grille 43, a pin 8 is inserted into the side wall of the connecting sleeve 7, a connecting head 9 is installed at the end of the screw 45, the connecting head 9 can be inserted into the connecting sleeve 7, and the connecting head 9 can rotate in the connecting sleeve 7.
[0030] In this technical solution, the connection head 9 is provided to prevent the sliding grille 43 from rotating with the screw 45 . At the same time, the latch 8 on the side wall of the connection sleeve 7 can prevent the connection head 9 from falling out of the connection sleeve 7 .
[0031] In some technical solutions, an ash outlet hole 10 is opened on the side wall of the fixed grid 42 , and a rubber plug 15 is inserted and installed in the ash outlet hole 10 , and the rubber plug 15 can seal the ash outlet hole 10 .
[0032] In this technical solution, the dust falling into the cavity formed by the fixed grille 42 and the sliding grille 43 can be cleaned by providing the dust discharge hole 10 .
[0033] In some technical solutions, a rubber pad 16 is fitted on the side wall of the sliding grille 43 , and the rubber pad 16 can fit on the side wall of the fixed grille 42 .
[0034] Working principle: When the fan 41 needs to be cleaned, the locking bolt 5 can be removed first, and then the upper cover 2 can be turned over to prevent dust from falling into the power module 1 when cleaning the fan 41. Then, the screw 45 can be rotated to lower the sliding grille 43 and fit it together with the fixed grille 42. At this time, the sliding grille 43 will close the fixed grille 42, separating the fan 41 from the power module 1, thereby preventing dust on the fan 41 from falling into the power module 1 when cleaning the fan 41.
[0035] At the same time, after the upper cover 2 is opened, the circuit board 14 in the housing 11 is also exposed, so that it is convenient for staff to clean the dust on the circuit board 14.
