[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a domain controller in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 is Figure 1 a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the domain controller in the embodiments. The embodiments of the present application provide a domain controller, which includes a connecting shell 20, a circuit board 30 and a heat dissipation shell 10, the connecting shell 20 and the heat dissipation shell 10 enclose to form a mounting cavity 40, and the circuit board 30 is arranged between the connecting shell 20 and the heat dissipation shell 10.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 is Figure 1 a structural schematic diagram of the heat dissipation shell in the embodiments, Figure 4 is Figure 3Structure diagram of the heat dissipation shell from another perspective in the embodiment. Wherein, the heat dissipation shell 10 comprises a wind guide structure 11 and at least two levels of annular structures arranged on the outer periphery of the wind guide structure 11, the diameter of each level of annular structures gradually increases, and each level of annular structures is respectively fixedly provided with blades extending in a radial state, the wind guide structure 11 comprises a wind guide part 111 and a wind gathering part 112, the wind guide part 111 is in a planar plate shape, and the wind gathering part 112 is formed as an annular protrusion extending from one side of the wind guide part 111, the wind gathering part 112 can gather the flowing gas to exchange heat with the heat dissipation object, and the wind guide part 111 and the blades can guide the gas flow and take away the heat.
[0029] The wind gathering part 112 can reduce the probability of the gas inhaled from the wind guide part 111 diffusing to the surroundings, gather the airflow as much as possible into the area enclosed by the annular protrusion and form a rotational flow, improve the airflow in the area enclosed by the annular protrusion, and further improve the heat exchange efficiency with the circuit board 30. The heat dissipation shell 10 can be made of a heat conductive material, and the heat conductive material can be aluminum alloy, alumina ceramic and other materials with high heat transfer coefficient.
[0030] Please refer to Figure 2 Optionally, the connection shell 20 and the heat dissipation shell 10 are detachably fixedly connected by screws, and the circuit board 30 is located in the mounting cavity 40 and clamped between the connection shell 20 and the heat dissipation shell 10. Since the components of the domain controller are detachable, only the corresponding component needs to be replaced when a single component is damaged, avoiding the scrapping of the entire domain controller and reducing the cost. The connection shell 20 is provided with a connector 21, the connector 21 is used for connecting the controlled load of the domain controller, signal acquisition or electrical component control of the load, and the connection shell 20 and the connector 21 are made of an integral injection molding process.
[0031] Optionally, the wind gathering part 112 of the heat dissipation shell 10 faces the circuit board 30, and a plurality of electronic components are integrated on the circuit board 30, ensuring that the control functions of the domain controller can be smoothly realized. At the same time, the circuit board 30 is arranged close to the heat dissipation shell 10, so that the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation shell 10 can fully cover the circuit board 30, thereby providing better heat dissipation protection for the key components on the circuit board 30.
[0032] In addition, in the embodiment, a waterproof coating is specially applied to the surface of the circuit board 30, which can be selected from liquid materials such as polyurethane, epoxy resin and acrylic, or can be selected by using a paralyne coating film technology and other types of waterproof treatment methods, and the specific selection is not limited. This design not only enhances the waterproof ability of the circuit board 30, effectively avoids the short circuit problem caused by condensation water droplets, but also greatly prolongs the working life of the circuit board 30.
[0033] The domain controller provided in the present application can be arranged at a position where air flows, for example, on an air conditioner assembly air duct. Through the air flowing on the air conditioner assembly air duct, in combination with the air guide structure 11 on the heat dissipation shell 10, the heat dissipation shell 10 can introduce the flowing air into the domain controller to dissipate heat for the circuit board 30. Of course, the arrangement position of the domain controller is not limited to the air conditioner assembly air duct, but can be at a position where air flows and away from a high-temperature heat source.
[0034] In other embodiments, an electronic fan can be directly arranged on the heat dissipation shell 10, which corresponds to the air guide structure 11 of the heat dissipation shell 10. The electronic fan is rotated to make the air flow to the air guide structure 11. Through the cooperation of the air gathering part 112 and the air guide part 111, the swirling effect can be enhanced, the air flow can be accelerated, the heat dissipation efficiency in the domain controller mounting cavity 40 can be enhanced, and the temperature of the circuit board 30 can be reduced.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the air guide part 111 is sequentially provided with a first ring part 12, a second ring part 13 and a third ring part 14 along the radial direction thereof, and the blades include first-stage blades 15, second-stage blades 16 and third-stage blades 17. The first-stage blades 15 are fixedly installed between the air guide part 111 and the first ring part 12, the second-stage blades 16 are fixedly installed between the first ring part 12 and the second ring part 13, and the third-stage blades 17 are fixedly installed between the second ring part 13 and the third ring part 14. The first ring part 12, the second ring part 13 and the air guide part 111 are located in the same plane.
[0036] The first ring part 12, the second ring part 13 and the air guide part 111 are located in the same plane to facilitate the air gathering part 112 to gather the air entering the domain controller mounting cavity 40, so that the external air is gathered in the central region of the heat dissipation shell 10, thereby forming a central swirling flow to facilitate sufficient heat exchange with the circuit board 30 in the domain controller. The area enclosed by the second ring part 13 forms an air inlet area, and the area between the second ring part 13 and the third ring part 14 forms an air outlet area. The air is sucked through the air inlet area, and the swirling effect of the air inlet area is strong, which can enhance the heat exchange efficiency. The air flow in the mounting cavity is guided to the outside through the air outlet area for heat dissipation. In the present embodiment, the air sucked into the mounting cavity 40 flows from the central air inlet area to the periphery after exchanging heat, and is blown out from the edge of the heat dissipation shell 10 to deliver heat. The multi-stage ring structure and the multi-stage blades can accelerate the air flow speed to some extent, make the heat dissipation more uniform, and effectively improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the domain controller.
[0037] It can be understood that the first ring part 12, the second ring part 13 and the third ring part 14 can be circular, rectangular or other special-shaped rings, which are specifically limited here. For example, in the embodiment, the air guide part 111 is a flat disc-shaped panel, the first ring part 12 and the second ring part 13 are coaxial with the air guide part 111, and the third ring part 14 is rectangular.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 3 The third ring part 14 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation fins 144, which are located on the side of the air guide part 111 away from the air collecting part 112 and used for active heat dissipation. The heat dissipation fins 144 are located on the outermost layer of the heat dissipation shell 10 and can preferentially contact air to naturally dissipate heat into the air.
[0039] In some embodiments, the third-stage blades 17 are inclined to the plane of the air guide part 111. For example, the angle between the third-stage blades 17 and the plane of the air guide part 111 can be 30 degrees, 60 degrees, 90 degrees, 120 degrees, etc., which are not limited in the embodiment.
[0040] It can be understood that the plurality of heat dissipation fins 144 are protruded from the third ring part 14, the adjacent heat dissipation fins 144 form an air duct, the third-stage blades 17 are inclined to the plane of the air guide part 111 and connected between the second ring part 13 and the third ring part 14, and the gas in the mounting cavity 40 can flow from the second ring part 13 to the third ring part 14 through the third-stage blades 17 and carry away the heat on the heat dissipation fins 144 through the air duct between the heat dissipation fins 144.
[0041] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the second ring part 13 is provided with a plurality of air outlet pipes 131, which are located on the same side of the air guide part 111 as the air collecting part 112, and the plurality of air outlet pipes 131 are used to guide the flowing gas to a designated position. The designated position can be a position where the local heat of the heat dissipation object is larger, for example, in the embodiment, the designated position can be the position where the electronic device is arranged on the circuit board 30, so as to avoid local high temperature of the circuit board 30 and damage caused by excessively high temperature of the internal elements of the domain control.
[0042] Optionally, the air outlet pipe 131 includes a first end and a second end, the distance from the first end to the plane of the air guide part 111 is smaller than the distance from the second end to the plane of the air guide part 111, and the pipe diameter of the air outlet pipe 131 at the first end is smaller than the pipe diameter of the air outlet pipe 131 at the second end. That is, in the embodiment, the air outlet end of the air outlet pipe 131 is in the shape of a circular truncated cone with the pipe diameter gradually increasing along the direction of the airflow, and the flared design of the air outlet pipe 131 can further accelerate the flow rate of the airflow and improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the local larger heat position of the circuit board 30.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 4In some embodiments, the air guide part 111 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation holes 113, which are located in the closed area enclosed by the air gathering part 112. The heat dissipation holes 113 can be circular, triangular or other polygonal shapes. The design of the heat dissipation holes 113 can facilitate the entry of gas from outside the mounting cavity 40 into the mounting cavity 40 and form a rotational flow in the area enclosed by the air gathering part 112, and also facilitate the dissipation of heat in the mounting cavity 40.
[0044] Further, the side of the air guide part 111 facing the air gathering part 112 is also provided with a boss 114, which is located in the closed area enclosed by the air gathering part 112. The boss 114 is provided with a through hole 115 in the center, and the heat dissipation holes 113 are located between the boss 114 and the air gathering part 112.
[0045] In some embodiments, the boss 114 can be in direct contact with the circuit board 30 to transfer heat from the circuit board 30 to the boss 114. The boss 114 is integrally formed with the heat dissipation shell 10 and is made of a heat conductive material and is in contact with the circuit board 30 to facilitate the transfer of heat from the circuit board 30 to the boss 114. The design of the boss 114 further increases the volume and surface area of the heat dissipation shell 10, improves the heat transfer rate of the circuit board 30 and the heat exchange rate with the gas, and enhances the rotational flow effect, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the circuit board 30.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the positioning part 141 of the third ring part 14 facing the air gathering part 112 is used to connect and position the circuit board 30, ensuring the connection performance of the circuit board 30 with the connection shell 20 and the heat dissipation shell 10.

The third ring part 14 is provided with a stiffening rib 143 connecting the inner ring and the outer ring of the third ring part 14, which is used to enhance the structural strength of the third ring part 14 and ensure the connection strength of the assembly and connection position of the heat dissipation shell 10 with the connection shell 20.
