[0031] The following is a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0032] Existing water-cooling plates are mostly designed with a single-layer water-cooling plate or a single-layer water-cooling plate plus a heat sink structure, which cannot meet the heat dissipation and structural fixation requirements in a board architecture with multi-layer heat dissipation requirements.

[0033] An embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model is to provide a heat dissipation structure for dissipating heat from a test board, comprising a first water-cooling plate 1, a second water-cooling plate 2, and a plurality of single boards arranged in a stacked manner, wherein any single board is connected to at least one other single board through a connecting component, and at least one single board is arranged between the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2, and the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 are in contact with adjacent single boards.

[0034] The heat dissipation structure provided in the above embodiments may include two, three, four or even more single boards. The surfaces on both sides of the first water-cooled plate 1 and the second water-cooled plate 2 can be used to dissipate heat from the single boards, thereby enabling heat dissipation of multiple single boards. At the same time, since any single board is connected to at least one other single board through a connecting component, the connecting component can limit the positional relationship between the single boards, thereby ensuring the stability of the multi-layer single board structure while meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the multi-layer single boards.

[0035] In the above heat dissipation structure, the first water-cooling plate 1 can contact one single board on one side or one single board on both sides. Similarly, the second water-cooling plate 2 can contact one single board on one side or one single board on both sides.

[0036] In the following embodiments, a case where multiple single boards include a first single board 4, a second single board 5, a third single board 6 and a fourth single board 7, the first water-cooled plate 1 is sandwiched between the first single board 4 and the second single board 5, and the second water-cooled plate 2 is sandwiched between the third single board 6 and the fourth single board 7 is used as an example for specific description.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the first single plate 4 and the second single plate 5 are stacked up and down, and the first water-cooling plate 1 is sandwiched between the first single plate 4 and the second single plate 5. Figure 1 At the angle shown, the top surface of the first water-cooling plate 1 can dissipate heat for the first single board 4 , and the bottom surface of the first water-cooling plate 1 can dissipate heat for the second single board 5 , thereby fully utilizing the heat dissipation surfaces on both sides of the first water-cooling plate 1 .

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, the third single plate 6 and the fourth single plate 7 are stacked up and down, and the second water-cooling plate 2 is sandwiched between the third single plate 6 and the fourth single plate 7. Figure 2 At the angle shown, the top surface of the second water-cooling plate 2 can dissipate heat for the fourth single board 7, and the bottom surface of the second water-cooling plate 2 can dissipate heat for the third single board 6, thereby fully utilizing the heat dissipation surfaces on both sides of the second water-cooling plate 2.

[0039] To more intuitively show the positional relationship between the first water-cooling plate 1, the second water-cooling plate 2 and the above four single plates, as shown in FIG. Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the first single plate 4, the first water-cooling plate 1, the second single plate 5, the third single plate 6, the second water-cooling plate 2 and the fourth single plate 7 are stacked in sequence from top to bottom.

[0040] exist Figure 5 In the left-right direction, the size of the second single board 5 is smaller than the first single board 4, the third single board 6 and the fourth single board 7.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, the first single plate 4 and the first water-cooling plate 1 can be fixedly connected by a screw 012 , and the second single plate 5 and the first water-cooling plate 1 can be fixedly connected by another screw 012 .

[0042] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the connection assembly includes a connector 10 , and the first single board 4 and the second single board 5 are electrically connected via the connector 10 .

[0043] The connector 10 can not only realize the communication between the first single board 4 and the second single board 5, but also limit the relative position of the first single board 4 and the second single board 5. One end of the connector 10 can be fixedly connected to the first single board 4, and the other end can be fixedly connected to the second single board 5.

[0044] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the connector 10 is disposed between the opposing surfaces of the first single board 4 and the second single board 5 .

[0045] On the one hand, the above arrangement does not require the connector 10 to occupy a large space. On the other hand, after the first single board 4 is aligned with the second single board 5 and stacked on the first water-cooled plate 1, the connector 10 itself can be docked, which also facilitates the installation of the heat dissipation structure.

[0046] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 2As shown, the connection component also includes several adapter boards 011. The third single board 6 and the fourth single board 7 are electrically connected to the first single board 4 through an adapter board 011 respectively. The adapter board 011 can realize communication between the first single board 4, the third single board 6 and the fourth single board 7.

[0047] In an optional embodiment, since the first single board 4, the third single board 6 and the fourth single board 7 are stacked, in order to facilitate the connection of each adapter board 011 with the above three single boards, each adapter board 011 is arranged at the side end of the third single board 6, the fourth single board 7 and the first single board 4, and the adapter board 011 has a certain extension length in the arrangement direction of the multiple single boards, so that it can contact the single boards at different heights to achieve electrical connection between the above-mentioned single boards.

[0048] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 7 As shown, a water cooling pipe 3 is connected between the first water cooling plate 1 and the second water cooling plate 2 and the first water cooling plate 1 and the second water cooling plate 2 are connected in series through the water cooling pipe 3 .

[0049] The above embodiment can realize the connection between the refrigerant in the first water-cooled plate 1 and the second water-cooled plate 2, so that only one refrigerant inlet and one refrigerant outlet are required for the above heat dissipation structure. There is no need to add a refrigerant source and corresponding refrigerant transmission pipeline to the original test machine, thereby reducing the update cost of the original test machine.

[0050] Specifically, if Figure 7 As shown, the water cooling pipe 3 is tilted, with one end connected to the first water cooling plate 1 and the other end connected to the second water cooling plate 2, so as to adapt to the height difference between the first water cooling plate 1 and the second water cooling plate 2.

[0051] In an optional embodiment, the water cooling pipe 3 and the adapter plate 011 are located at the same side end of the third single board 6, the fourth single board 7 and the first single board 4, and the water cooling pipe 3 and the adapter plate 011 do not interfere with each other.

[0052] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 8 As shown, the outside of the water-cooling pipe 3 is further covered with a protective shell 013 , which can be connected to the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 by connecting parts such as screws to protect the water-cooling pipe 3 .

[0053] In an optional embodiment, in order to further ensure the stability of the relative position of the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 both have a length direction and a width direction perpendicular to the length direction, and at least one side end of the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 in the width direction is connected by a first fixing member 8.

[0054] The arrangement of the first fixing member 8 can limit the relative positional relationship between the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 in their arrangement direction, thereby ensuring that the relative position of the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 is more stable.

[0055] Specifically, if Figure 8 As shown, the first fixing member 8 is clamped between the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2; a first groove 81 is provided on the surface of the first fixing member 8 facing the first water-cooling plate 1, and one end of a connecting member such as a screw can be accommodated in the first groove 81, and the other end passes through the first fixing member 8 and is inserted into the second water-cooling plate 2; a second groove 82 is provided on the surface of the first fixing member 8 facing the second water-cooling plate 2, and one end of a connecting member such as a screw can be accommodated in the second groove 82, and the other end passes through the first fixing member 8 and is inserted into the first water-cooling plate 1.

[0056] The above-mentioned first grooves 81 and second grooves 82 are both configured in multiples, the first fixing member 8 is in a strip shape, the multiple first grooves 81 are evenly spaced along the length direction of the first fixing member 8, the multiple second grooves 82 are evenly spaced along the length direction of the first fixing member 8, and the multiple first grooves 81 and the multiple second grooves 82 are staggered along the length direction of the first fixing member 8.

[0057] In at least one embodiment, both side ends of the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 in the width direction are connected by a first fixing member 8 .

[0058] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 8 As shown, at least one side end of the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 in the length direction is connected by a second fixing member 9, and the second fixing member 9 can further strengthen the relative position stability of the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2.

[0059] Specifically, if Figure 8 As shown, the side end of the second fixing member 9 is the same as the side end of the adapter plate 011. The second fixing member 9 can prevent the first water-cooled plate 1 and the second water-cooled plate 2 from loosening at the above-mentioned end, which further causes the adapter plate 011 to loosen, resulting in failure of the connection between the single boards.

[0060] Specifically, if Figure 8 As shown, the second fixing member 9 is clamped between the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2; the second fixing member 9 is provided with a through hole, and some screws and other connecting members can pass through the first water-cooling plate 1 and be inserted at one end of the through hole, and other screws and other connecting members can pass through the second water-cooling plate 2 and be inserted at the other end of the through hole, thereby realizing the connection between the first water-cooling plate 1 and the second water-cooling plate 2 through the second fixing member 9.

[0061] like Figure 8 As shown, the second fixing member 9 may be a rectangular block structure.

[0062] An embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention provides a testing machine. The testing machine provided by the embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention includes the above-mentioned heat dissipation structure for dissipating heat from a testing board.

[0063] The test machine provided in the second aspect of the present invention has the heat dissipation structure for heat dissipation of the test board provided in the embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, thereby having all the beneficial effects of the heat dissipation structure for heat dissipation of the test board provided in the embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention.

[0064] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
