Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of heat pipe heat exchangers, and particularly relates to a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger. Background Technology

[0002] A heat pipe transfers heat through the evaporation and condensation of a working fluid within a fully enclosed vacuum tube shell. The working principle is as follows: A heat pipe is typically divided into an evaporation section and a condensation section. In the evaporation section, the external medium is hotter, heating the working fluid inside the heat pipe and causing it to vaporize. The vaporized working fluid flows to the cold end, the condensation section. In the condensation section, the external medium exchanges heat with the working fluid, releasing its latent heat of vaporization, which heats the medium in the condensation section. The condensed working fluid then flows back to the evaporation section, and this process repeats. A baffle structure is usually installed between the evaporation and condensation sections of a heat pipe heat exchanger. The baffle clearly separates the media in the evaporation and condensation sections, preventing disordered flow between the two regions and ensuring the orderly and stable heat exchange, thus improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0003] Patent CN201322568Y discloses a multi-purpose heat pipe heat exchanger, including a heat pipe element with a sheath at its sealed end and a wedge-shaped threaded sealing ring in the middle, passing through a sealing partition located inside the heat exchanger shell until the wedge-shaped threaded sealing ring is screwed into the sealing partition hole. A positioning spring washer is then placed on the other end of the heat pipe element, and positioning bolts are tightened. The elements are arranged in an equilateral triangular shape and evenly fixed inside the heat exchanger shell according to different operating conditions. The plug in this patent is a wedge-shaped threaded sealing ring.

[0004] However, the existing partition structure between the evaporation and condensation sections of heat pipe heat exchangers may encounter some problems during use: the plug may shift upwards or deform, which weakens the effect of the partition between the evaporation and condensation sections in separating the media. This causes the media in the evaporation section to permeate each other, thus affecting the heat exchange efficiency of the heat pipe heat exchanger. If the media is a toxic or harmful substance, it may even pose a safety hazard.

[0005] The existing baffle structure between the evaporator and condenser sections of heat pipe heat exchangers can no longer meet the needs of the ever-evolving heat pipe heat exchangers. Therefore, it is urgent to design a baffle structure between the evaporator and condenser sections of a heat pipe heat exchanger to adapt to the development of heat pipe heat exchangers. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model proposes a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a partition structure between the evaporator section and the condenser section of a heat pipe heat exchanger, comprising:

[0008] The partition body has several mounting holes, a plug is abutted in each mounting hole, an inner hole is formed in the plug, and a heat pipe is inserted through the inner hole.

[0009] One end of the plug has a protruding step, which overlaps one side of the partition body. The end of the plug away from the step passes through the partition body and is engaged with the partition body by a snap ring.

[0010] According to this application, a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger is provided, wherein the end of the plug away from the step is provided with an installation groove, and the snap ring is snapped into the installation groove.

[0011] According to this application, a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger is provided, wherein the distance between the mounting groove and the step is matched with the thickness of the partition body.

[0012] According to this application, a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger is provided, wherein the retaining ring is a C-type retaining ring.

[0013] According to this application, a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger is provided, wherein the mounting hole and the plug are interference fit.

[0014] According to this application, a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger is provided, wherein the inner hole and the heat pipe are interference-fitted.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and technical effects:

[0016] The partition body and the heat pipe are connected by a plug. One end of the plug is engaged with the partition body via a step, and the other end is engaged with the partition body via a retaining spring after passing through the partition. This prevents the plug from shifting to one side under pressure. The step and retaining spring bear the force perpendicular to the partition on both sides, which can effectively reduce the deformation of the plug under stress. This ensures the partition's isolation function between the evaporation section and the condensation section, preventing the medium in the evaporation section from permeating into the medium in the condensation section and ensuring the heat exchange effect of the heat pipe heat exchanger.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a partition structure between the evaporator section and the condenser section of a heat pipe heat exchanger, including:

[0023] The partition body 1 has several mounting holes 2, a plug 3 is abutted in the mounting holes 2, an inner hole 4 is opened in the plug 3, and a heat pipe 5 is inserted through the inner hole 4.

[0024] One end of the plug 3 has a protruding step 301, which overlaps one side of the partition body 1. The end of the plug 3 away from the step 301 passes through the partition body 1 and is engaged with the partition body 1 by a snap ring 6.

[0025] In this application, the partition body 1 and the heat pipe 5 are connected by a plug 3. One end of the plug 3 is engaged with the partition body 1 by a step 301, and the other end is engaged with the partition body 1 by a retaining spring 6 after passing through the partition. This makes it difficult for the plug 3 to be displaced to one side under pressure. The step 301 and the retaining spring 6 bear the force perpendicular to the partition on both sides, which can effectively reduce the deformation of the plug 3 under force, thereby ensuring the partition's isolation function between the evaporation section and the condensation section, preventing the medium in the evaporation section from permeating into the medium in the condensation section, and ensuring the heat exchange effect of the heat pipe 5 heat exchanger.

[0026] The plug 3 is made of nylon, which has high strength, good toughness, excellent fatigue resistance, wear resistance, heat resistance and corrosion resistance.

[0027] This embodiment provides a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger. The end of the plug 3 away from the step 301 is provided with an installation groove 302, and the snap ring 6 is snapped into the installation groove 302.

[0028] Mounting slot 302 is used to install the retaining ring 6 and limit its movement to prevent it from moving freely.

[0029] This embodiment provides a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger, wherein the distance between the mounting groove 302 and the step 301 is matched with the thickness of the partition body 1.

[0030] To prevent the plug 3 from wobbling in the mounting hole 2, the distance between the retaining ring 6 and the step 301 should match the thickness of the partition body 1. An interference fit can be used. Therefore, the distance between the mounting groove 302 and the step 301 should also match the thickness of the partition body 1.

[0031] This embodiment provides a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger, and the retaining ring 6 is a C-type retaining ring.

[0032] The C-type retaining ring 6 is installed in the mounting groove 302. The outer ring of the C-type retaining ring 6 protrudes outward and abuts against the end face of the partition body 1. It is used to limit the axial movement of the plug 3. It is convenient and quick to install and disassemble, and is inexpensive and easy to promote.

[0033] This embodiment provides a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger, wherein the mounting hole 2 and the plug 3 are interference fit.

[0034] An interference fit provides better sealing and a more effective partition.

[0035] This embodiment provides a partition structure between the evaporation section and the condensation section of a heat pipe heat exchanger, wherein the inner hole 4 and the heat pipe 5 are interference fit.
