Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of intercoolers, and particularly relates to an intercooler core installation structure. Background Art

[0002] The intercooler, also known as the intermediate cooler, is a key component of a turbocharged engine. Its primary function is to reduce the temperature of the supercharged, high-temperature air, thereby improving the engine's ventilation efficiency and, in turn, increasing engine power. The intercooler core is a crucial component, consisting of sealed pipes (for containing and guiding the flow of compressed air) and cooling fins (for dissipating the heat from the compressed hot air). The pipes and cooling fins of the intercooler core are generally connected together by tight bonding or welding. There are various types of cooling fins, a common type being the wavy shape. These wavy cooling fins are generally installed between adjacent pipes, with space between the wavy cooling fins and the adjacent pipes for airflow and heat dissipation, resulting in natural heat dissipation.

[0003] The intercooler is typically installed between the supercharger and the engine's intake manifold. Because it's located at the front of the engine, its cooling fins are often clogged by leaves, oil sludge, and other debris, affecting heat dissipation. Therefore, it should be cleaned and maintained regularly to ensure proper operation. When cleaning, use a moderately high-pressure water gun at a perpendicular angle to the intercooler's surface.

[0004] When cleaning the existing intercooler core, although the wavy fins can be cleaned with a water gun, due to the wavy shape of the fins, there are always dead corners that cannot be cleaned by the water gun. In addition, the fins and pipes are an integral combination, and a single fin cannot be disassembled and assembled for cleaning, or a damaged fin cannot be replaced. When installing the intercooler core, there is a problem that there is no design for disassembling and assembling a single fin. For this reason, the present application proposes an intercooler core installation structure. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] 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.

[0025] Example

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a technical solution: an intercooler core mounting structure, including a mounting frame installed between the end cover 1 and the core, including parallel and opposite connecting plates 31, side plates 33 installed between the ends of the connecting plates 31, and limiting columns 32 passing through the connecting plates 31. The side plates 33 are screwed together with the connecting plates 31, and the side plates 33 are screwed together with the end cover 1 by bolts. The limiting columns 32 pass through the connecting plates 31 and the limiting columns 53, so that the limiting columns 53 and the stabilizing plate 221 are firmly combined, thereby keeping the collecting pipe 41 and the limiting pipe 42 stable. The core includes an airflow duct 21 and heat dissipation fins 22 distributed on both sides of the airflow duct 21. The airflow duct 21 and the heat dissipation fins 22 are of a split structure. A single heat dissipation fin 22 can be removed, which is convenient for cleaning dead corners on its surface that cannot be rinsed in place, and also convenient for replacing damaged heat dissipation fins 22. A stabilizing plate 221 is provided on the end of one side of the heat dissipation fin 22. The stabilizing plate 221 is welded to the heat dissipation fin 22. The limiting column 53 passes through the stabilizing plate 221, and the limiting column 53 limits the stabilizing plate 221, thereby keeping the heat dissipation fin 22 stable.

[0027] The current collecting member installed on the side plate 33 includes a collecting pipe 41 slidably connected to the side plate 33 and a limiting pipe 42 connected to the interior of the collecting pipe 41. The collecting pipe 41 and the side plate 33 are firmly screwed together, and the collecting pipe 41 and the side plate 33 are conventionally sealed. A vertical fixing column 421 is provided on the opposite surface of the limiting pipe 42. The fixing column 421 is welded to the limiting pipe 42. One end of the limiting pipe 42 is inserted into the interior of one end of the airflow duct 21. The limiting pipe 42 and the airflow duct 21 are conventionally sealed. External compressed hot air enters the cavity b of the side plate 33 from the end cover 1, and then enters the collecting pipe 41. The hot air is divided and passes through the limiting pipe 42 before entering the interior of the airflow duct 21;

[0028] The limiting component includes a fixed cylinder 51 connected to the end of the fixed column 421 away from the limiting tube 42, a movable block 52 and a contraction spring 54 installed inside the fixed cylinder 51, and a limiting column 53 connected to the movable block 52 at one end. The fixed cylinder 51 is connected to the fixed column 421 by a threaded engagement. By using a wrench, one end of the wrench is inserted into the movable block 52 to squeeze the contraction spring 54, thereby changing the position of the limiting column 53, and then the movable block 52 is rotated 90 degrees, and the limiting column 53 rotates in the same direction, so that the limiting column 53 corresponds to the corresponding stable plate 221. The wrench is loosened and moved outward. Under the action of the elastic force of the contraction spring 54, the movable block 52 and the limiting column 53 move, and the limiting column 53 passes through the stable plate 221 to realize the limitation of the limiting column 53.

[0029] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the airflow duct 21 is a frame structure, and the heat dissipation fins 22 are wavy in shape. There is space between the wavy heat dissipation fins 22 and the adjacent airflow ducts 21 for airflow and heat dissipation. Through natural heat dissipation, the connecting plate 31 and the side plate 33 form a firm frame, and the core is installed inside the firm frame. The firm frame limits the split-type combined core.

[0030] In this embodiment, a mounting groove 331 cooperating with the collecting pipe 41 is provided on one side surface of the side panel 33. In order to limit the collecting pipe 41 in practice, a cavity b is provided on the surface of the side panel 33 facing the end cover 1. The inner surface of the side panel 33 located in the cavity is provided with a connecting groove 332 connected to the mounting groove 331. The external compressed hot air enters the cavity b of the side panel 33 from the end cover 1, and then passes through the connecting groove 332 into the interior of the collecting pipe 41, without affecting the circulation of the compressed hot air.

[0031] In this embodiment, symmetrically distributed through holes a are provided on the stabilizing plate 221 to match the ends of the limiting columns 53 . The limiting columns 53 pass through the through holes a on the stabilizing plate 221 to achieve the limitation of the limiting columns 53 .

[0032] In this embodiment, the limiting column 53 is an "L"-shaped structure, and a limiting hole 531 is opened on one end of the limiting column 53 to cooperate with the limiting column 32. After the limiting column 53 passes through the stabilizing plate 221, the limiting column 32 is installed. The limiting column 32 passes through the connecting plate 31 and the limiting column 53, so that the limiting column 53 and the stabilizing plate 221 are firmly combined, thereby keeping the collecting pipe 41 and the limiting pipe 42 in a stable state.

[0033] In this embodiment, the moving block 52 is a cylindrical structure. A regular hexagonal corner groove is provided on the surface of the moving block 52 facing away from the contraction spring 54, which is convenient for rotating the moving block 52 by a wrench. The moving block 52 is provided with an anti-deflection column inserted into one end of the contraction spring 54, which plays the effect of limiting the contraction spring 54. A cover plate 311 is slidably connected to the connecting plate 31. The cover plate 311 is flush with the surface opposite to the side plate 33. The cover plate 311 can slide to both sides. The cover plate 311 can cover the side plate 33, the collecting pipe 41 and the limiting pipe 42. The cover plate 311 moves to the side position without affecting the disassembly and assembly of the heat dissipation fins 22.

[0034] The working principle and use process of this utility model:

[0035] When removing a single heat sink fin 22 from the core, the cover plate 311 is moved to the side without affecting the removal and installation of the heat sink fin 22. At the same time, the side plate 33, the manifold 41, and the limiting tube 42 are exposed.

[0036] Remove the limiting column 32 that is firmly screwed together by the thread, so that the limiting column 32 is separated from the connecting plate 31 and the limiting column 53;

[0037] Use a wrench tool to insert one end of the wrench into the moving block 52 to compress the contraction spring 54, thereby changing the position of the limiting column 53 and causing the limiting column 53 to leave the corresponding stabilizing plate 221;

[0038] Then the moving block 52 is rotated 90 degrees, and the limiting column 53 rotates in the same direction accordingly;

[0039] The wrench is loosened and moved outward, and under the elastic force of the contraction spring 54, the moving block 52 and the limiting column 53 move;

[0040] At this time, the heat dissipation fins 22 and the adjacent air flow ducts 21 are in a split structure, and a single heat dissipation fin 22 can be removed, which is convenient for cleaning the dead corners on its surface that cannot be fully flushed, and also convenient for replacing damaged heat dissipation fins 22;

[0041] Similarly, when reinstalling the heat dissipation fins 22, install them between adjacent air flow ducts 21, and slide the cover plate 311 to the middle position. The cover plate 311 limits the heat dissipation fins 22 so that they are in a straight position.

[0042] Use a wrench tool to insert one end of the wrench into the moving block 52 so that it squeezes the contraction spring 54, thereby changing the position of the limiting column 53. Then rotate the moving block 52 90 degrees, and the limiting column 53 rotates in the same direction accordingly, so that the limiting column 53 corresponds to the corresponding stabilizing plate 221. Loosen the wrench and move it outward. Under the elastic force of the contraction spring 54, the moving block 52 and the limiting column 53 move. The limiting column 53 penetrates the stabilizing plate 221 to achieve the limitation of the limiting column 53. Install the limiting column 32. The limiting column 32 penetrates the connecting plate 31 and the limiting column 53, so that the limiting column 53 and the stabilizing plate 221 are firmly combined, thereby keeping the collecting pipe 41 and the limiting pipe 42 in a stable state, and completing the installation of the heat sink 22.

[0043] To sum up: when the intercooler core is installed, there is a design for disassembly and assembly of a single heat sink. The heat sink fin 22 and the adjacent air flow duct 21 are a combined structure. The stabilizing plate 221 at the end of the heat sink fin 22 is limited by the limiting column 53. The limiting column 32 passes through the connecting plate 31 and the limiting column 53, so as to achieve the effect of firmly installing the heat sink fin 22 and the air flow duct 21.

[0044] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described (see the detailed description above for details), it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
