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.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, an edge intelligent agent for integrated computing, storage and transmission includes a shell 100, which includes an upper part and a lower part, and the upper and lower parts are connected; wherein, a first heat dissipation device is installed in the upper part; the lower part has an installation cavity 200 inside, and a carrier plate 300 and a storage module 400 are installed inside the installation cavity 200; a second heat dissipation device 500 and a third heat dissipation device 600 are respectively installed on both sides of the installation cavity 200.

[0029] The first heat dissipation device includes a plurality of heat dissipation teeth 700 and a top fan 800; wherein, the heat dissipation teeth 700 are evenly arranged on the upper part of the housing 100, and an installation area 900 is also provided on the upper part of the housing 100 for the installation of the top fan 800.

[0030] like Figure 3As shown, through slots are provided on the left and right sides of the outer casing 100, including a first through slot 110 and a second through slot 111; wherein, the first through slot 110 is connected to the second heat dissipation device 500, and the second through slot 111 is connected to the third heat dissipation device 600.

[0031] In this invention, a three-dimensional architecture consisting of an upper heat dissipation fin 700, a top fan 800, and two lower side heat dissipation devices 500 and 600, combined with a hybrid active and passive heat dissipation mode, achieves precise heat dissipation across the entire area of ​​the core computing, storage module 400, and transmission module of the integrated computing, storage, and transmission device. This enables low-energy temperature control under low load and efficient cooling under high load. Simultaneously, its independent mounting cavity 200 and standardized mounting position design allow for compatibility with various domestically produced modules, enabling them to be placed close to the heat source without additional adjustments. Furthermore, by optimizing the overall thermal flow field, it avoids localized high temperatures and heat retention, effectively reducing equipment failure rates and extending the lifespan of core components. Its integrated miniaturized structure and easy-to-maintain design also adapt to the limited deployment space and low maintenance costs required in edge computing scenarios, comprehensively ensuring the continuous and stable operation of domestically produced edge intelligent agents while balancing heat dissipation efficiency, energy consumption balance, and domestic compatibility.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] This embodiment is a further refinement of Embodiment 1. It provides an edge intelligent agent applied to integrated computing, storage, and transmission, the structure of which and its working principle are as follows:

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the heat dissipation device includes a housing 100, which is an integrated sealed structure divided into an upper part and a lower part, and the upper and lower parts are internally connected to form a unified heat dissipation airflow channel; wherein, the upper part of the housing 100 serves as the main heat dissipation area and is equipped with a first heat dissipation device for efficient heat dissipation of the computing core of the edge intelligent agent (equipped with a domestically produced AISOC module, providing 200 TOPS @INT8 computing power);

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, the lower part of the outer shell 100 is provided with a mounting cavity 200, which is used to fix the carrier board 300 of the edge intelligent agent. The carrier board 300 integrates computing power and interface control functions. The mounting cavity 200 is also provided with a storage module 400 for local storage of massive data. A second heat dissipation device 500 and a third heat dissipation device 600 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the mounting cavity 200 to provide directional heat dissipation for the surrounding environment of the carrier board 300 and the storage module 400, respectively.

[0036] The first heat dissipation device includes several heat dissipation teeth 700 and a top fan 800, which are used to quickly dissipate the heat generated by the computing core.

[0037] The heat dissipation fins 700 are made of aluminum alloy with a high thermal conductivity of ≥200W / (m・K). They include a first heat dissipation fin 112 arranged horizontally and a second heat dissipation fin 113 arranged vertically. The first heat dissipation fins 112 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the upper part of the outer shell 100, with 5 to 8 fins on each side and a tooth spacing of 5 to 8 mm, to expand the horizontal heat dissipation area. The second heat dissipation fins 113 are arranged in the middle of the upper part of the outer shell 100, arranged vertically, with a total of 8 to 12 fins and a tooth spacing of 4 to 6 mm, to directly contact the heat dissipation surface of the computing core and quickly conduct heat.

[0038] The mounting area 900 is located in the middle of the heat dissipation fins 700. It is a circular or square groove structure with a depth of 10-15mm, used to mount the top fan 800. A top cover 114 is detachably connected to the mounting area 900. The top cover 114 is made of stainless steel and is fixed to the upper part of the outer shell 100 by bolts. It not only protects the top fan 800, but also allows external cold air to be introduced through the perforated holes of the top cover 114. The diameter of the perforated holes is 3-5mm and the spacing between the holes is 8-10mm.

[0039] The top fan 800 is fixedly connected to the inside of the top cover 114. It is a DC brushless fan with a rated voltage of 12V, a power of 5-8W, and supports three-speed adjustment with a speed range of 1500-3500rpm. When working, it blows cool air into the lower part of the outer casing 100, which directly acts on the surface of the computing core to achieve active heat dissipation.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, the outer casing 100 has through slots on its left and right sides, including a first through slot 110 (left side) and a second through slot 111 (right side). The through slots are 150mm × 80mm in size, and dustproof mesh (0.5-1mm aperture) is installed inside the slots to prevent outdoor dust from entering the equipment.

[0041] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first through slot 110 is connected to the second heat dissipation device 500 (left fan). The left fan adopts an exhaust design. When working, it draws the hot air from the bottom of the outer casing 100 to the outside of the device, forming a horizontal convection airflow that blows upward and draws downward with the air blown by the top fan 800.

[0042] The second channel 111 is connected to the third heat dissipation device 600 (right fan). The right fan adopts a blowing design. When working, it blows cold air into the storage module 400 area under the outer casing 100, forming a vertical convection airflow with the left fan blowing air from the right and drawing air from the left, which specifically reduces the temperature of the storage module 400.

[0043] Multiple independent storage boxes 116 (preferably 2-4) are fixedly installed on the right side of the mounting cavity 200. The storage boxes 116 are made of sheet metal and have shock-absorbing pads (3-5mm thick) inside. Each storage box 116 corresponds to one storage module 400, specifically a 3.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD, which not only fixes the storage module 400, but also leaves a heat dissipation channel through the gap between the storage box 116 and the outer shell 100.

[0044] Interface 115 areas are provided on the front and sides of the housing 100. The interfaces 115 include network interfaces (1 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet port, 8 x 1 Gigabit Ethernet ports), data transmission interfaces (4 x USB 3.0, 1 x RS485, 2 x Type-C), and visual data interfaces (2 x HDMI, 1 x MicroUSB). All interfaces 115 are connected to the carrier board 300 via ribbon cables, and the interface 115 areas are equipped with waterproof sealing rings (made of silicone) to meet the outdoor IP65 protection level requirements.

[0045] Two supports 118 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer casing 100. The supports 118 are made of high-strength ABS material and have a height of 20-30mm. They are used to raise the bottom of the outer casing 100 to prevent ground moisture or dust from directly contacting the equipment.

[0046] Each support 118 has a fixing hole 119 (hole diameter 8-10mm) in the middle, which can be used to fix the outer shell 100 to the roadside cabinet or bracket with expansion bolts to prevent outdoor wind or vibration from causing the equipment to move.

[0047] The heat dissipation working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0048] Startup Phase: After the edge intelligence device starts up, the heat dissipation device simultaneously enters standby mode, and monitors the temperature of the core module and storage module 400 in real time;

[0049] Core module primary cooling: When the core module temperature is ≥60℃, the top fan 800 starts, initially using the first speed setting (1500rpm); if the temperature continues to rise to 65℃, the fan switches to the second speed setting (2500rpm); when the temperature rises to 70℃, it switches to the third speed setting (3500rpm), directly reducing the core module temperature through top airflow;

[0050] Secondary cooling for core module: If the core module temperature is still ≥60℃ after the top fan 800 is running at full load, the second cooling device 500 (left fan) will be activated. The left fan will draw air at its rated speed (3000rpm) and form a horizontal convection with the top fan 800, which will accelerate the discharge of hot air from the bottom of the casing 100, so that the core module temperature drops by 10 to 15℃.

[0051] Targeted heat dissipation for storage module 400: When the temperature of storage module 400 is ≥50℃, the controller activates the third heat dissipation device 600 (right fan). The right fan blows air at the rated speed (2800rpm) towards the storage box 116 area, forming a longitudinal convection with the exhaust air of the left fan, accelerating the flow of hot air around storage module 400, and reducing the temperature of storage module 400 by 8 to 12℃.

[0052] Shutdown phase: When the edge intelligent body is powered off or the core module temperature is ≤45℃ and the storage module 400 temperature is ≤40℃, the controller will sequentially shut down the right fan, left fan and top fan 800 to avoid unnecessary energy consumption.

[0053] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0054] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
