[0028] ReferenceFigures 1-3 The embodiment of the present application provides a wind guide structure, which comprises a wind guide ring 1, a wind guide opening 2 is formed in the middle of the wind guide ring 1, the two sides of the wind guide ring 1 in the axial direction are respectively a first end part 3 and a second end part 4, the first end part 3 is provided with a flared ring 5, the second end part 4 is used for assembly connection, a plurality of micro holes 6 are arranged on the wind guide ring 1, and the plurality of micro holes 6 penetrate through the wind guide ring 1 in the radial direction of the wind guide ring 1.

[0029] The second end part 4 of the wind guide structure is used for being connected with a wind port 8 of a cooling fan 7, and external air can enter or blow out through the wind port 8 when the cooling fan 7 works. The wind guide structure is communicated with the wind port 8 through the wind guide opening 2 of the wind guide ring 1, and the airflow flows close to the inner wall surface of the flared ring 5 near the flared ring 5 through the setting of the flared ring 5, so that the generation of complex flow phenomena such as flow separation is delayed, the turbulence degree of the airflow in the wind guide opening 2 can be effectively reduced, the airflow can be ensured to pass through the wind port 8 into the cooling fan 7 more stably, and therefore the working efficiency of the cooling fan 7 is improved, and the cooling effect is improved. In addition, the micro holes 6 are arranged on the wind guide ring 1, the sound energy is converted into heat energy through the friction and reflection of sound waves in the holes of the micro holes 6, so that the propagation of sound waves is reduced, and the noise propagation generated by the cooling fan 7 in high-speed rotation can be effectively reduced.

[0030] The inner wall surface of the flared ring 5 is used for realizing guidance, optimizing airflow flow and reducing resistance, can control airflow flow, realizes that the airflow flows close to the wall surface near the channel wall surface, thereby reducing the generation of airflow separation and turbulence. The inner wall of the flared ring 5 can be a bevel, a curved surface or a bent surface, for example, the inner wall surface of the flared ring 5 in the present application is a curved surface, and the inner wall surface of the curved surface structure is convenient for production and preparation.

[0031] The micro holes 6 on the wind guide ring 1 have small diameters, the micro holes 6 have sufficient sound resistance and sufficiently low mass resistance, and good broadband sound absorption can be obtained. In addition, when the sound waves pass through the micro holes 6, the air produces resistance and consumes part of the sound wave energy. The remaining sound waves pass through the micro holes 6 into the inner wall of the micro holes 6, the hole wall of the micro holes 6 causes multiple reflection and refraction of sound waves, multiple propagation and dissipation, converts sound energy into heat energy, consumes part of the sound wave energy, effectively reduces the reflection of sound waves, and plays a role of sound absorption, noise reduction and improvement of acoustic environment.

[0032] The cross-sectional shape of the micropores 6 can be rectangular, rhombic, triangular, circular, cruciform, or herringbone-shaped, etc., and each shape of the micropores 6 can play a sound-absorbing effect. In different application scenarios, the shape of the micropores 6 can be selected according to different use requirements. For example, in order to ensure the appearance, the cross-sectional shape of the micropores 6 can be star-shaped or heart-shaped, etc. In this application, the cross-sectional shape of the micropores 6 is circular. The circular shape is easy to manufacture and can be realized by simple stamping or mechanical processing technology, which reduces the cost and ensures the production efficiency. At the same time, the remaining material after punching the circular hole is easier to be recycled and reused, which reduces material waste. In addition, the circular hole can provide more uniform stress distribution, which helps to maintain the overall strength and stability of the air guide ring 1.

[0033] The plurality of micropores 6 are uniformly and spacedly distributed on the air guide ring 1. Through the uniform distribution of the micropores 6, the airflow can be more uniformly distributed on the entire surface of the air guide ring 1, rather than being concentrated in some areas. This can reduce the local resistance when the airflow passes through, reduce the generation of vortex and turbulence, and reduce the local stress concentration on the air guide ring 1, thereby improving the overall strength and durability of the air guide ring 1. In addition, it can also provide consistency and coordination in vision, and improve the appearance.

[0034] In summary, the air guide structure provided by the embodiment can ensure that the airflow flows close to the wall surface of the flared ring 5 when the airflow flows, thereby delaying the generation of complex flow phenomena such as flow separation, effectively reducing the turbulence degree of the airflow in the air guide opening 2, and ensuring that the airflow enters the cooling fan 7 more smoothly, thereby improving the working efficiency of the cooling fan 7 and improving the cooling effect. The air guide ring 1 is provided with a plurality of micropores 6, and the micropores 6 have a significant sound-absorbing effect, which can effectively reduce the noise propagation generated by the cooling fan 7 when rotating at high speed.

[0035] Referring to Figures 1-4 , the application also provides a cooling device comprising a fan 7 and the air guide structure as described above, which is arranged on at least one air opening 8 of the fan 7. The fan 7 with the above air guide structure can ensure that the airflow entering the fan 7 is stable, or the airflow discharged from the fan 7 is stably circulated to the outside environment, thereby reducing the turbulence degree of the airflow and reducing the noise.

[0036] Specifically, the air guide structure is arranged on at least one air port 8 of the fan 7, the air port 8 includes an air inlet 8 and an air outlet 8, the air inlet 8 of the fan 7 can be provided with the air guide structure, the air guide structure ensures that the airflow entering the fan 7 is stable, enhances the air guide effect, ensures the heat dissipation efficiency of the fan 7, and reduces noise; or the air outlet 8 of the fan 7 is provided with the air guide structure, the air guide structure ensures that the airflow discharged from the fan 7 is stably circulated to the outside, reduces the turbulence degree, and reduces the chaos and vortex of the airflow, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency and reducing the noise. Of course, the air inlet 8 and the air outlet 8 of the fan 7 can also be provided with the air guide structure, so that the turbulence of the air inlet 8 and the air outlet 8 of the fan 7 is reduced, and the heat dissipation efficiency and the noise are further improved. In addition, when the fan 7 has multiple air inlets 8 and / or multiple air outlets 8, the air inlets 8 and the air outlets 8 can be arranged according to different use requirements, that is, the air guide structure can be arranged on part of the air inlets 8, or the air guide structure can be arranged on part of the air outlets 8, or the air guide structure can be arranged on each air inlet 8 and each air outlet 8.

[0037] The diameter of the air guide port 2 of the air guide structure is equal to the diameter of the air port 8, so that the airflow entering the fan 7 is uniform, or the airflow flowing out of the fan 7 is uniform, which can reduce the pulsation and rotation of the airflow, and help to improve the efficiency of the fan 7.

[0038] In some embodiments, the air guide structure can be fixedly arranged on the fan 7 or detachably arranged on the fan 7. For example, the air guide structure can be fixed on the fan 7 by welding or riveting. In order to facilitate installation, disassembly, maintenance and the like, preferably, the air guide structure is detachably arranged on the fan 7. In this application, the air guide ring 1 of the air guide structure is detachably arranged on the fan 7 through a connecting assembly, which can include buckle connection, magnetic connection, screw connection or wedge connection.

[0039] Specifically, the connecting assembly includes a mounting plate arranged at the second end 4 of the air guide ring 1, the mounting plate is provided with a first connecting hole, the fan 7 is provided with a second connecting hole 9 at the position opposite to the first connecting hole, the first connecting hole is provided with a locking piece, and the locking piece is screwed with the second connecting hole 9. The first connecting hole and the second connecting hole 9 are aligned, and then the locking piece on the first connecting hole is screwed with the second connecting hole 9 to screw the mounting plate to the fan 7, so that the air guide structure is detachably arranged on the fan 7. The locking piece can be a screw or a stud.

[0040] Of course, the locking member can be fixedly arranged on the first connecting hole, for example, welded or riveted. The locking member can also be detachably matched with the first connecting hole, for example, clamped or screwed. Illustratively, an inner thread is formed on the inner wall of the first connecting hole, and the locking member is a screw matched with the first connecting hole in screwing. The first connecting hole and the second connecting hole 9 are sequentially screwed by the screw, so as to install the air guide ring 1 on the fan 7.

[0041] The connecting assembly is provided in multiple groups. The connection reliability of the air guide ring 1 and the fan 7 can be improved by the multiple groups of connecting assemblies. Alternatively, the multiple groups of connecting assemblies can be uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction of the air guide ring 1, so as to ensure the stability of the connection, reduce stress concentration, avoid structural damage caused by excessive local stress, and thus improve the service life of the device.

[0042] In summary, the flow separation of the airflow at the inlet of the air guide structure can be reduced by the flared ring 5, so that the airflow is more effectively introduced into the fan 7, the working efficiency of the fan 7 is improved, and thus the heat dissipation efficiency is improved. At the same time, the turbulent flow at the inlet of the fan 7 is reduced, so that the aerodynamic noise generated by the turbulent flow can be reduced from the source. In addition, the noise can be effectively absorbed by arranging the micro-holes 6 on the air guide ring 1.
