Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pulse modulator technology, specifically to a pulse modulator. Background Technology
[0002] A pulse modulator consists of four parts: a charging power supply section, an energy storage section, a switching section, and a pulse forming section. Pulse modulation has two meanings: it is the process of making the parameters of the pulse itself (amplitude, width, and phase) change according to the signal. When the pulse amplitude changes with the signal, it is called pulse amplitude modulation; when the pulse phase changes with the signal, it is called pulse phase modulation.
[0003] Chinese patent number CN218416339U discloses a high-voltage pulse modulator discharge switch using a reverse-conducting silicon controlled rectifier chip. The device dissipates heat from the inside of the housing by setting a cooling fan at the front end of the housing.
[0004] The applicant discovered the following technical problems when implementing the above-mentioned technical solution:
[0005] The device only dissipates heat from the inside of the housing through a cooling fan, which has a limited heat dissipation effect. When the gate adjustment switch is adjusted to the maximum, the pulse modulator always operates at maximum power. If the heat cannot be dissipated in time, it will affect its working performance.
[0006] Therefore, providing a pulse modulator that combines semiconductor components and a cooling fan for heat dissipation when the pulse modulator needs to operate at high power is a problem that this invention urgently needs to solve. Utility Model Content
[0007] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the purpose of this invention is to overcome the limitations of existing technologies that rely solely on a cooling fan to dissipate heat from the internal casing. In such cases, the heat dissipation effect is limited, and when the gate adjustment switch is adjusted to its maximum, the pulse modulator operates at maximum power continuously, failing to dissipate heat effectively and thus affecting its performance. Therefore, this invention provides a pulse modulator that utilizes a combination of semiconductor components and a cooling fan for heat dissipation, enabling combined cooling when the pulse modulator requires high-power operation.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a pulse modulator, which includes: a housing, a circuit control board, a moving block, a semiconductor cooling chip, and a driving mechanism. The circuit control board is disposed inside the housing, and circuit elements and a first heat dissipation fin are disposed on the circuit control board. A heat-conducting plate is disposed on the side of the first heat dissipation fin away from the circuit control board. A moving block is disposed on the heat-conducting plate and is reciprocating along its length. A semiconductor cooling chip with its cooling surface in contact with the heat-conducting plate is disposed inside the moving block. A power supply for energizing the semiconductor cooling chip is also disposed inside the housing. A second heat dissipation fin is disposed on the heating surface of the semiconductor cooling chip away from the heat-conducting plate. A fan with an outward air outlet is disposed on the side of the housing near the first heat dissipation fin. The driving mechanism is used to drive the moving block to reciprocate.
[0009] Preferably, the top of the housing is provided with a gate adjustment switch and an adjustment track corresponding to the gate adjustment switch; the circuit control board includes: an adjustable high-voltage gate circuit, a pulse transformer and a control processor.
[0010] Preferably, the heat-conducting plate is provided with a limiting slide rail along its length on the side away from the circuit control board, and the moving block is provided with a limiting slider adapted to the limiting slide rail on the side away from the second heat dissipation fin.
[0011] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a drive motor and a lead screw. The drive motor is mounted on the heat-conducting plate, and its output end is coaxially mounted with a lead screw. The lead screw has a horizontal thread that passes through the moving block and is rotatably mounted on the heat-conducting plate.
[0012] Preferably, the movable block has a through hole on the side near the power source that is compatible with the wires on the semiconductor cooling chip.
[0013] Preferably, a filter screen is provided on the outside of the fan.
[0014] Preferably, the circuit control board is further provided with a display module, and the outer side of the housing is provided with a display screen that is electrically connected to the display module.
[0015] Preferably, a primary power connection post is provided on one side of the housing, and a load connection post is provided on the other side; the circuit control board further includes a charging module electrically connected to the primary power connection post.
[0016] According to the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows: When the output power of the pulse modulator is low, we use a driving mechanism to drive the moving block to move to the side of the heat-conducting plate away from the first heat dissipation fin, and the fan dissipates heat from the first heat dissipation fin and the heat-conducting plate. When the output power of the pulse modulator increases to a certain level, in order to ensure that all components of the device can work normally, we use a driving mechanism to drive the moving block to move to the side of the heat-conducting plate close to the first heat dissipation fin. The first heat dissipation fin absorbs heat from the circuit control board to the heat-conducting plate. We power the semiconductor cooling chip through the power supply. Due to the Peltier effect, one side of the semiconductor cooling chip will cool and the other side will heat. The cooling side will quickly dissipate heat from the heat-conducting plate, and the heating side will transfer heat to the second heat dissipation fin. The fan will dissipate heat from the second heat dissipation fin, thereby realizing the selection of appropriate heat dissipation power according to different working states of the pulse modulator to ensure that the pulse modulator can work normally; the power supply can also supply power to other mechanisms such as the circuit control board.

[0030] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 A pulse modulator includes: a housing 1, a circuit control board 2, a moving block 3, a semiconductor cooling chip 4, and a driving mechanism 5. The housing 1 houses the circuit control board 2, which has circuit elements 201 and a first heat dissipation fin 202. A heat-conducting plate 203 is disposed on the side of the first heat dissipation fin 202 away from the circuit control board 2. A moving block 3 is disposed on the heat-conducting plate 203, which is reciprocally movable along its length. A semiconductor cooling chip 4 with its cooling surface in contact with the heat-conducting plate 203 is disposed inside the moving block 3. A power supply 12 for energizing the semiconductor cooling chip 4 is also disposed inside the housing 1. A second heat dissipation fin 13 is disposed on the heating surface of the semiconductor cooling chip 4 away from the heat-conducting plate 203. A fan 6 with its air outlet facing outward is disposed on the side of the housing 1 near the first heat dissipation fin 202. The driving mechanism 5 drives the moving block 3 to reciprocate.
[0032] When the output power of the pulse modulator is low, the driving mechanism 5 drives the moving block 3 to move to the side of the heat-conducting plate 203 away from the first heat dissipation fin 202. The fan 6 then dissipates heat from the first heat dissipation fin 202 and the heat-conducting plate 203. When the output power of the pulse modulator increases to a certain level, in order to ensure that all components of the device can work normally, the driving mechanism 5 drives the moving block 3 to move to the side of the heat-conducting plate 203 close to the first heat dissipation fin 202. The first heat dissipation fin 202 absorbs heat from the circuit control board 2 and transfers it to the heat-conducting plate 203. The power supply 12 powers the semiconductor cooling chip 4. Due to the Peltier effect, one side of the semiconductor cooling chip 4 cools and the other side heats. The cooling side quickly dissipates heat from the heat-conducting plate 203, and the heating side transfers heat to the second heat dissipation fin 13. The fan 6 then dissipates heat from the second heat dissipation fin 13. This allows for the selection of appropriate heat dissipation power according to different working states of the pulse modulator to ensure that the pulse modulator can work normally. The power supply 12 can also power other mechanisms such as the circuit control board 2.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 The top of the housing 1 is provided with a gate adjustment switch 7 and an adjustment track 8 corresponding to the gate adjustment switch 7; the circuit control board 2 includes: an adjustable high voltage gate circuit, a pulse transformer and a control processor.
[0034] The structure and working principle of the gate adjustment switch 7 electrically connected to the adjustable high voltage gate circuit have been disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN105846799A.
[0035] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The heat-conducting plate 203 is provided with a limiting slide rail 20301 along its length on the side away from the circuit control board 2, and the moving block 3 is provided with a limiting slider 301 adapted to the limiting slide rail 20301 on the side away from the second heat dissipation fin 13.
[0036] This application uses this design to ensure that the moving block 3 can move stably back and forth on the heat-conducting plate 203.
[0037] Reference Figure 4 The driving mechanism 5 includes a drive motor 501 and a lead screw 502. The drive motor 501 is mounted on the heat-conducting plate 203, and the lead screw 502 is coaxially mounted on its output end. The lead screw 502 is horizontally threaded through the moving block 3 and is rotatably mounted on the heat-conducting plate 203.
[0038] This application achieves stable movement of the moving block 3 by starting the drive motor 501 to drive the lead screw 502 to rotate.
[0039] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The movable block 3 is provided with a through hole 302 on the side near the power supply 12, which is adapted to the wire 14 on the semiconductor cooling chip 4.
[0040] This design allows the wire 14 to pass directly through the through hole 302, preventing the need for bending and pulling, and extending its service life.
[0041] Reference Figure 7 A filter screen 601 is provided on the outside of the fan 6.
[0042] This application uses this design to prevent foreign objects from entering the housing 1 and affecting the normal operation of other mechanisms.
[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 7 The circuit control board 2 is also provided with a display module, and the outer side of the housing 1 is provided with a display screen 11 that is electrically connected to the display module.
[0044] This application, through this design, enables the display screen 11 to intuitively display parameters such as amplitude, pulse width, and phase.
[0045] Reference Figure 1 The housing 1 has a primary power connection post 10 on one side and a load connection post 9 on the other side; the circuit control board 2 also includes a charging module electrically connected to the primary power connection post 10.
[0046] This application enables the charging function of the pulse modulator through this design. The power supply 12 is charged by connecting to the primary power supply through the primary power connection post 10, and the power consumption component is connected through the load connection post 9.
[0047] When the output power of the pulse modulator is low, the device provided by this utility model can be used to move the moving block 3 to the side of the heat-conducting plate 203 away from the first heat dissipation fin 202 via the driving mechanism 5. Then, the fan 6 can dissipate heat from the first heat dissipation fin 202 and the heat-conducting plate 203. When the output power of the pulse modulator increases to a certain level, in order to ensure that all components of the device can work normally, the moving block 3 can be moved to the side of the heat-conducting plate 203 closer to the first heat dissipation fin 202 via the driving mechanism 5. The first heat dissipation fin 202 absorbs the circuit control... The heat from board 2 is transferred to heat conduction plate 203. We power the thermoelectric cooler 4 through power supply 12. Due to the Peltier effect, one side of thermoelectric cooler 4 will cool and the other side will heat. The cooling side will quickly dissipate heat from heat conduction plate 203, and the heating side will transfer heat to the second heat dissipation fin 13. Fan 6 will dissipate heat from the second heat dissipation fin 13, thereby achieving the selection of appropriate heat dissipation power according to the different working states of the pulse modulator to ensure that the pulse modulator can work normally. Power supply 12 can also supply power to other mechanisms such as circuit control board 2.
