DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0031] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows:

[0032] See also Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a water-cooling and heat dissipation structure for underwater photography equipment, including: a waterproof shell 1, a water-cooling and heat dissipation mechanism 2, a cavity 3 is provided in the waterproof shell 1, and the cavity 3 is a vacuum cavity for installing an underwater camera to waterproof and protect the camera.

[0033] Further, see Figure 3-4 The water-cooling heat dissipation mechanism 2 includes a control module 21, a pump body 22, and a tube body 23. The control module 21 is electrically connected to the pump body 22. The tube body 23 is disposed within the cavity 3, and the water inlet end 231 of the tube body 23 passes through the waterproof housing 1 and is connected to the pump body 22. The water outlet end 232 of the tube body 23 passes through and extends outside the waterproof housing 1. When the camera is used underwater, the pump body 22 can draw water into the tube body 23 through the water inlet end 231, and then flow out from the water outlet end 232, achieving water circulation within the waterproof housing 1. Heat exchange is carried out through the tube body 23, continuously removing heat generated by the camera, cooling the camera within the waterproof housing 1, improving the camera's heat dissipation performance, and ensuring that the camera can be used normally for a long time.

[0034] Furthermore, the control module 21 and the pump body 22 are arranged outside the waterproof housing 1, which can reduce the volume of the waterproof housing and facilitate use.

[0035] Furthermore, the water-cooling heat dissipation mechanism 2 includes a support plate 24, which is fixedly disposed within the cavity 3 and secured to the waterproof housing 1. The tube 23 is secured to the support plate 24. In this embodiment, the support plate 24 serves to secure the tube 23, improving its structural stability; it also serves as a heat conductor, attached to the camera, increasing the camera's heat exchange area and improving heat dissipation.

[0036] Furthermore, the tube body 23 is a "U"-shaped structure, with the two ends of the "U"-shaped structure being the water inlet end 231 and the water outlet end 232 respectively. The support plate 24 is arranged horizontally, and the "U"-shaped structure is arranged flatly, so that the side with a larger area is fitted against the surface of the support plate 24, which can increase the contact area with the support plate 24 and improve the effect of water cooling heat exchange.

[0037] Furthermore, the tube body 23 is made of a metal tube, and the support plate 24 is made of a metal material with good heat dissipation performance, so the thermal conductivity is high and the heat exchange effect is good.

[0038] Further, see Figure 2 A first through hole 11 is provided on the waterproof housing 1 , and the water inlet end 231 passes through the first through hole 11 . A first sealing member 4 is provided between the first through hole 11 and the water inlet end 231 .

[0039] Furthermore, a second through hole 12 is provided on the waterproof housing 1 , the water outlet end 232 passes through the second through hole 12 , and a second sealing member 5 is provided between the second through hole 12 and the water outlet end 232 .

[0040] Further, see Figure 9 The first sealing member 4 includes a connecting body 41, a sealing ring 42, and a sealing cap 43. One end of the connecting body 41 is threadedly connected to the sealing cap 43, and the other end is threadedly connected to the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 12. The sealing ring 42 is disposed between the connecting body 41 and the sealing cap 43. The connecting body 41 and the sealing cap 43 are provided with through holes, through which the water inlet end 231 and the water outlet end 232 pass, and the sealing ring 42 is disposed between the through holes and the water inlet end 231 and the water outlet end 232. The above structural arrangement not only facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the first sealing member 4 and the second sealing member 5, and thus facilitates the installation of the tube body 23, but also enables the sealing ring 42 to seal the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 12, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the waterproof housing 1.

[0041] Specifically, the first sealing member 4 and the second sealing member 5 have the same structure.

[0042] Further, see Figure 3-4The water-cooling heat dissipation mechanism 2 further includes a power supply module 25, a first electrical connection line 26, and a second electrical connection line 27. The power supply module 25 is connected to the control module 21 via the first electrical connection line 26, and the control module 21 is connected to the pump body 22 via the second electrical connection line 27. The power supply module 25 can independently power the pump body 22, allowing the water-cooling heat dissipation mechanism 2 to be used independently without relying on the camera for power. This facilitates the installation of the water-cooling heat dissipation mechanism outside the waterproof housing 1, thereby facilitating the introduction of external water into the waterproof housing 1 to cool the camera.

[0043] Specifically, the power supply module 25 uses a standard battery to supply power to the pump body 22 .

[0045] Furthermore, the first cover 29, the second cover 210, and the third cover 220 are all detachably connected to the bottom shell 28, and a sealing ring is provided between the second cover 210, the third cover 220, and the bottom shell 28. In this embodiment, the first cover 29, the second cover 210, and the bottom shell 28 are connected by rivets, the inner side of the third cover 220 is provided with an internal thread, and the corresponding position of the bottom shell 28 is provided with an external thread that matches the internal thread, and the third cover 220 is threadedly connected to the bottom shell 28. The above structure can realize the detachability between the first cover 29, the second cover 210, and the third cover 220 and the bottom shell 28, and can facilitate the installation of the pump body 22, the power supply module 25, and the control module 21; the sealing ring can waterproof the second installation cavity 240 and the third installation cavity 250, ensuring the safe use of the control module 21 and the power supply module 25.

[0046] Furthermore, two holes are opened on the side wall of the first installation cavity 230 , the inlet of the pump body 22 extends out of the installation shell through one of the holes, and the outlet of the pump body 22 passes through the other hole and is connected to the water inlet end 231 of the tube body 23 .

[0047] Further, see Figure 6-8The control module 21 includes a control circuit board 211 and a control button 212. The control circuit board 211 is arranged in the second installation cavity 240.

A control button 213 is provided on the control circuit board 211; the control button 212 is movably arranged in the limiting groove 260, and the lower end of the control button 212 movably passes through the movable hole 270 and extends above the control button 213.

[0048] Furthermore, the control button 212 includes a pressing portion 2121 and a rod body 2122. The pressing portion 2121 is movably arranged in the limiting groove 260 and exposed outside the second surface cover 210. The rod body 2122 movably passes through the movable hole 270, and one end of the rod body 2122 is fixedly connected to the pressing portion 2121, and the other end extends to the top of the control button 213; an elastic member 214 is also sleeved on the rod body 2122, one end of the elastic member 214 is abutted or connected to a side of the pressing portion 2121 facing the limiting groove 260, and the other end is abutted against the bottom wall of the limiting groove 260. In this embodiment, the exposed pressing portion 2121 is pressed to push the rod body 2122 downward. After the rod body 2122 touches the control button 213, it can control the triggering of the button 213 to realize the opening or closing of the pump body 22; after releasing the pressing portion 2121, the entire control button 212 can be reset under the elastic force of the elastic member 214 and move away from the control button 213.
