[0026] The utility model provides a kind of non refrigeration type infrared detector, Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a kind of non refrigeration type infrared detector.

[0027] As Figure 1As shown, the utility model embodiment provides a kind of non-refrigeration type infrared detector 100, including heat dissipation shell 1, circuit board 2 and detector chip 3, the circuit board 2 has first face and second face, the detector chip 3 is electrically connected with the circuit board 2, and located the first face of the circuit board 2, the heat dissipation shell 1 is located the second face of the circuit board 2, with the circuit board 2 is enclosed to form with containing cavity 11, the containing cavity 11 is filled with insulating coolant.

[0028] In the utility model, the second face of the circuit board 2 is immersed in the insulating coolant in the containing cavity 11, and the heat generated by the detector chip 3 is transmitted to the insulating coolant via the circuit board 2. Compared with the existing detector heat dissipation component relying on metal contact heat dissipation, since the plasticity of metal is poor, it is difficult to completely cover the second face of the circuit board 2 which is not flat. The utility model realizes heat dissipation of the detector chip 3 by contacting the second face of the circuit board 2 with the highly plastic insulating coolant, which is better in adaptability. At the same time, since the liquid has higher heat capacity than the solid, the flowability of the insulating coolant makes the heat dissipation more uniform, and the heat dissipation speed is improved, the thermal equilibrium can be reached faster, and the heat dissipation efficiency is improved.

[0029] Specifically, the insulating coolant can be a liquid such as ultrapure water or a mixture of ethylene glycol and ultrapure water, or a solid-liquid coexistence body such as silica gel or hydrogel.

[0030] As shown, Figure 1 The non-refrigeration type infrared detector 100 further includes a plurality of electronic components 5, which are electrically connected to the second face of the circuit board 2 and located in the containing cavity 11. Specifically, the electronic components 5 are generally capacitors and resistors on the circuit board 2. The plurality of electronic components 5 are completely immersed in the insulating coolant in the containing cavity 11, and heat is transferred from the plurality of electronic components 5 to the insulating coolant by contacting the plurality of electronic components 5 with the insulating coolant, so that the heat generated by the electronic components 5 is directly transmitted to the insulating coolant, and heat dissipation of the plurality of electronic components 5 is realized.

[0031] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the heat dissipation shell 1 is made of metal, so that the heat of the insulating coolant can be transmitted to the heat dissipation shell 1 and finally dissipated to the outside air, avoiding the accumulation of heat in the insulating coolant due to the inability to dissipate heat, which affects the heat dissipation effect after the detector works for a long time.

[0032] In order to avoid the leakage of the insulation cooling liquid from the gap between the heat dissipation shell 1 and the circuit board 2, in some embodiments, the heat dissipation shell 1 and the circuit board 2 are connected by the sealant. In this way, the gap between the heat dissipation shell 1 and the circuit board 2 is sealed by the sealant, avoiding the leakage of the insulation cooling liquid and affecting the heat dissipation effect.

[0033] Preferably, in some embodiments, as shown in the drawings, Figure 1 The heat dissipation shell 1 is provided with a liquid inlet 12 which communicates with the accommodating cavity 11. In this way, the heat dissipation shell 1 and the circuit board 2 are first bonded by the sealant, and then the insulation cooling liquid is injected into the accommodating cavity 11 through the liquid inlet 12. Compared with the method of injecting the insulation cooling liquid into the accommodating cavity 11 first and then sealing the opening of the heat dissipation shell 1 by the circuit board 2, the method can avoid the early entry of part of the insulation cooling liquid into the gap between the heat dissipation shell 1 and the circuit board 2, which affects the sealing effect of the sealant.

[0034] In order to facilitate the injection of the insulation cooling liquid, in some embodiments, as shown in the drawings, Figure 2 The liquid inlet 12 is tapered towards the accommodating cavity 11. Since the insulation cooling liquid is relatively viscous and the droplets are large, if the diameter of the liquid inlet 12 is too small, it will be difficult to inject. However, if the diameter of the liquid inlet 12 is too large, it will also increase the difficulty of subsequent sealing of the liquid inlet 12. Therefore, the liquid inlet 12 is funnel-shaped, which facilitates the injection of the insulation cooling liquid and does not affect the subsequent sealing of the liquid inlet 12.

[0035] The sealing method of the liquid inlet 12 is various, as shown in the drawings, Figure 3 For the heat dissipation shell 1 made of metal, the liquid inlet 12 can be sealed by laser welding. For the heat dissipation shell 1 made of non-metal, the liquid inlet 12 can be sealed by the sealant.

[0036] It should be noted that the heat dissipation shell 1 made of metal can also be sealed by the sealant.

[0037] When the liquid inlet 12 is sealed by the above sealing method, the insulation cooling liquid cannot be replaced, so preferably, in some embodiments, as shown in the drawings, Figure 2As shown, the non-cooled infrared detector 100 further comprises a sealing cover 4, which covers the liquid inlet 12 and is detachably connected with the heat dissipation shell 1. In this way, when the detector works for a long time, the insulation cooling liquid accumulates a large amount of heat, resulting in a decline in heat dissipation effect. The sealing cover 4 can be removed, and the insulation cooling liquid in the heat dissipation shell 1 can be replaced to ensure good heat dissipation effect.

[0038] Further, in some embodiments, the sealing cover 4 is made of elastic material. Since the sealing cover 4 made of elastic material can produce large deformation, by using a sealing cover 4 with large size, the sealing cover 4 and the liquid inlet 12 are interference-fitted to realize sealing, avoiding leakage of insulation cooling liquid from the gap between the sealing cover 4 and the liquid inlet 12.

[0039] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 The sealing cover 4 comprises a first sealing segment 41 and a second sealing segment 42 connected with each other. The first sealing segment 41 is located inside the containing cavity 11 and blocks the communication between the liquid inlet 12 and the containing cavity 11. The second sealing segment 42 is filled in the liquid inlet 12. In this way, by blocking the communication through the first sealing segment 41 and blocking the liquid inlet 12 through the second sealing segment 42, complete sealing of the liquid inlet 12 is realized to avoid leakage of insulation cooling liquid from the liquid inlet 12.

[0040] Specifically, in some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The liquid inlet 12 is arranged at the end of the heat dissipation shell 1 away from the circuit board 2. Since the detection surface of the detector chip 3 is arranged downward during daily work of the non-cooled infrared detector 100, the circuit board 2 is arranged at the bottom of the heat dissipation shell 1. The liquid inlet 12 is arranged at the top of the heat dissipation shell 1, which can reduce the pressure of the insulation cooling liquid on the liquid inlet 12, thereby avoiding sealing failure of the liquid inlet 12.

[0041] In order to protect the detector chip 3, in some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The non-cooled infrared detector 100 further comprises a protective shell 6 arranged on the first surface of the circuit board 2. The detector chip 3 is arranged in the protective shell 6. The protective shell 6 is provided with a light transmission opening 61 on the light path of the detector chip 3. In this way, the detector chip 3 is arranged in the protective shell 6, which can avoid damage to the detector chip 3.

[0042] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
