Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of core technology, and more specifically, to an intercooler core. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, the intercooler core, as a key heat dissipation component in the turbocharger system, plays a crucial role in the vehicle's fuel economy and power output through its performance and structural design. However, due to the structural differences between different car brands and models, the design and installation position of intercoolers and their cores vary. Some intercoolers, due to their low installation position, are easily damaged by small stones and other objects splashed from the road, which not only affects the intercooler's working efficiency but also increases the maintenance costs and usage burden for car owners.

[0003] A series of intercooler core protective cover products have appeared on the market, designed to protect the intercooler core from external damage. However, these protective covers generally have some design shortcomings. First, many protective covers adopt a closed design or have a complex installation structure. Although this provides protection to a certain extent, the disassembly process becomes cumbersome and difficult when the intercooler core needs to be repaired or inspected. In addition, some protective covers are difficult to maintain their original stability after being removed, resulting in difficulties and instability when reinstalling.

[0004] On the other hand, the heat dissipation core used in the vehicle's cooling system also has certain problems in terms of heat dissipation. After the cooling system has been running for a long time, the heat dissipation core is not effective and the heat cannot be dissipated quickly and effectively, which will lead to a decrease in cooling effect and affect the comfort of the vehicle and the normal operation of the cooling system.

The cleaning assembly includes a protective mesh plate, a bracket, a guide rod, a threaded rod, a driven bevel gear, a driving bevel gear, and a motor. The protective mesh plate is detachably connected to the body. The bracket is fixedly installed at the four top corners of the body. The guide rod is disposed between the brackets on one side, and the threaded rod is disposed between the brackets on the other side. The driven bevel gear is connected to the threaded rod, and the driving bevel gear meshes with the driven bevel gear. The output end of the motor is connected to the driving bevel gear. A fixing assembly is provided on one side of the body. The fixing assembly includes a side plate, mounting holes, and slots. The side plate is fixedly installed on one side of the body, and the mounting holes and slots are formed on the side plate. A heat dissipation assembly is provided inside the body.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that a slider is threadedly connected to the threaded rod, and the movement of the slider is accomplished through the cooperation of the various components.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a cleaning plate is connected to one end of the slider, the cleaning plate is in contact with the protective mesh plate, and one end of the cleaning plate is slidably connected to the guide rod. The movement of the cleaning plate is completed through the coordinated use of the various components.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a protective plate is detachably connected to one side of the side plate, and an insert plate is installed on the protective plate. The insert plate is adapted to the slot, and both ends of the protective plate are provided with insert posts, which are adapted to the insertion holes. The placement of the protective plate is completed through the cooperation of the various components.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a mounting screw is connected to a through slot on the side plate, and a fixing nut is threaded to both ends of the mounting screw. The fixing nuts are respectively fitted to the side plate, and the fixing process of the protective plate is completed through the cooperation of the various components.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the heat dissipation component includes a heat dissipation pipe, fins and a toothed ring. The heat dissipation pipe is installed inside the main body and multiple heat dissipation pipes are provided. The fins are fixedly connected to the inner side of the heat dissipation pipe, and the toothed ring is opened on the inner side of the heat dissipation pipe. The heat dissipation process of the main body is completed through the cooperation of each component.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that teeth are fixedly installed on the outer side of the fin, and the placement process of the fin is completed through the cooperation of the various components.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a connecting channel is provided on the inner side of the fin, and the teeth mesh with the tooth ring, thereby facilitating the heat dissipation process of the body through the coordinated use of the various components.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an intercooler core, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The cleaning component, through the cooperation of a protective mesh plate, bracket, guide rod, threaded rod, driven bevel gear, driving bevel gear, and motor, achieves automatic cleaning of the protective mesh plate surface. The protective mesh plate protects the main body from external damage, while the cleaning component ensures the permeability of the protective mesh plate, improving its working efficiency and service life. The start of the motor causes the driving bevel gear to rotate, which in turn drives the driven bevel gear and threaded rod to rotate. The sliding block and cleaning plate moved through the threaded connection to achieve cleaning of the protective mesh plate surface. The guide rod ensures the stability and accuracy of the cleaning process.

[0016] 2. The fixing assembly, through the design of side plates, mounting holes, slots, protective plates, insert plates, and posts, achieves a stable installation of the protective plate. The side plates are fixed to one side of the main body, providing a base for the installation of the protective plate.

The use of mounting screws and fixing nuts further enhances the firmness of the installation, making the protective plate less likely to loosen or fall off during vehicle operation.

[0017] 3. The heat dissipation assembly achieves high-efficiency heat dissipation through the design of heat pipes, fins, toothed rings, and teeth. The fins inside the heat pipes increase the heat dissipation area and improve heat exchange efficiency. The meshing design of the toothed rings and fins allows the fins to be stably placed on the heat pipes, while the use of teeth further enhances the stability of the fins. The rectangular design of the connecting channels not only improves the strength and corrosion resistance of the fins but also simplifies the manufacturing process, making the heat dissipation assembly more efficient, durable, and easy to manufacture.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-6 An intercooler core includes a body 1, on which a cleaning assembly is provided. The cleaning assembly includes a protective mesh plate 2, a bracket 3, a guide rod 4, a threaded rod 5, a driven bevel gear 6, a driving bevel gear 7, and a motor 8. The protective mesh plate 2 is detachably connected to the body 1. The bracket 3 is fixedly installed at the four top corners of the body 1. The guide rod 4 is located between the brackets 3 on one side, and the threaded rod 5 is located between the brackets 3 on the other side. The driven bevel gear 6 is connected to the threaded rod 5. The driving bevel gear 7 is meshed with the driven bevel gear 6. The output end of the motor 8 is connected to the driving bevel gear 7. A fixing assembly is provided on one side of the body 1. The fixing assembly includes a side plate 9, mounting holes 10, and slots 11. The side plate 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the body 1. The mounting holes 10 and slots 11 are formed on the side plate 9. A heat dissipation assembly is provided inside the body 1.

[0029] The threaded rod 5 is equipped with a slider 12 for threaded connection.

[0030] One end of the slider 12 is connected to a cleaning plate 13, which is attached to the protective net plate 2. One end of the cleaning plate 13 is slidably connected to the guide rod 4.

[0031] A protective plate 14 is detachably connected to one side of the side plate 9. An insert plate 15 is installed on the protective plate 14. The insert plate 15 is adapted to the slot 11. Both ends of the protective plate 14 are provided with insert posts 16, which are adapted to the insertion holes.

[0032] The side plate 9 is connected to the through slot 11 with a mounting screw 17. Both ends of the mounting screw 17 are threaded with fixing nuts 18, which are respectively attached to the side plate 9.

[0033] In this embodiment, during use, the protective mesh plate 2 installed on the main body 1 protects the main body 1. However, due to prolonged use, the permeability of the protective mesh plate 2 can be affected, so its surface needs to be cleaned regularly. At this time, the motor 8 is manually started, causing the output end of the driving bevel gear 7 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven bevel gear 6 meshing with it to rotate, thereby driving the threaded rod 5 to rotate. During this rotation, the threaded slider 12 moves, which in turn moves the cleaning plate 13 on one side, thus completing the cleaning process of the protective mesh plate 2 surface. During the movement of plate 2, the guide rod 4, which is slidably connected to one side of the protective net plate 2, plays a guiding role, thereby making its sliding process more stable. When installing the protective plate 14 on one side of the main body 1, the protective plate 14 is manually inserted into the mounting hole 10 on the side plate 9 using the insert post 16 on one side. During the installation process, the insert block is inserted into the slot 11 and the insert post 16 is inserted into the mounting hole 10. At this time, the installation screw 17 is manually screwed into the top of the side plate 9, so that it is screwed into the slot 11 and passes through the side plate 9. Then, the fixing nut 18 is manually screwed into both ends of the installation screw 17, so that it fits against the side plate 9, thereby completing the fixing process of the protective plate 14.

[0034] Please see Figure 4 As an implementation of an intercooler core for a heat dissipation assembly: the heat dissipation assembly includes heat dissipation pipes 19, fins 20 and toothed rings 21. The heat dissipation pipes 19 are installed inside the body 1, and multiple heat dissipation pipes 19 are provided. The fins 20 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the heat dissipation pipes 19, and the toothed rings 21 are opened on the inner side of the heat dissipation pipes 19.

[0035] The outer side of the fin 20 is fixedly equipped with teeth 22.

[0036] A connecting channel 23 is provided on the inner side of the fin 20, and the teeth 22 mesh with the toothed ring 21.

[0037] More specifically, during use, heat dissipation is achieved by utilizing the heat dissipation pipe 19 installed inside the main body 1. When in use, the fins 20 are placed into the toothed ring 21 on the heat dissipation pipe 19 to complete the placement process. The cooperation between the fins 20 and the toothed ring 21 makes the placement process more stable. Furthermore, by using the rectangular design of the cross-section of the connecting channel 23, the strength is higher, the corrosion resistance is better, the heat transfer efficiency is better, and the manufacturing process is simpler.

[0038] In summary, during the use or operation of the overall equipment: During use, the protective mesh plate 2 installed on the main body 1 protects the main body 1. However, due to prolonged use, the permeability of the protective mesh plate 2 can be affected, necessitating timely cleaning of its surface. At this time, the motor 8 is manually started, causing the output end of the driving bevel gear 7 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the driven bevel gear 6, which in turn rotates, causing the threaded rod 5 to rotate. During this rotation, the threaded slider 12 moves, thereby moving the cleaning plate 13 on one side, thus completing the cleaning process of the protective mesh plate 2 surface. During the movement of the protective mesh plate 2, the guide rod 4, which is slidably connected on one side of the protective mesh plate 2, plays a guiding role, thereby making its sliding process more stable. When installing the protective plate 14 on one side of the main body 1, the protective plate 14 is manually inserted into the mounting hole 10 on the side plate 9 using the insert post 16 on one side. During the installation process, the insert block is inserted into the slot 11 and the insert post 16 is inserted into the mounting hole 10. At this time, the installation screw 17 is manually screwed into the top of the side plate 9, so that it is screwed into the slot 11 and passes through the side plate 9. Then, the fixing nut 18 is manually screwed into both ends of the installation screw 17, so that it fits against the side plate 9, thereby completing the fixing process of the protective plate 14.

[0039] During use, heat dissipation is achieved by utilizing the heat dissipation pipe 19 installed inside the main body 1. When in use, the fins 20 are placed into the toothed ring 21 on the heat dissipation pipe 19 to complete the placement process. The cooperation between the fins 20 and the toothed ring 21 makes the placement process more stable. Furthermore, by using the rectangular design of the cross-section of the connecting channel 23, the strength is higher, the corrosion resistance is better, the heat transfer efficiency is better, and the manufacturing process is simpler.
