[0002] The manifold of the new type of parallel flow heat exchanger with split structure is a device used to improve heat exchange efficiency and simplify production process. The manifold is equipped with a baffle plate inside, which divides the manifold into an upper cavity and a lower cavity, which are connected by through holes in the baffle plate. This design helps to distribute the working fluid evenly in the manifold.

[0003] The baffles in the manifold are responsible for guiding and distributing airflow. The flow state of the airflow directly affects the cooling efficiency and stability of the system. The baffles in traditional manifolds are fixed in position at the factory, so the positions of the baffles at both ends cannot be adjusted. This makes it impossible to make adaptive adjustments according to the needs of different power equipment, which can easily lead to uneven airflow and affect the heat exchange effect. Therefore, a new type of parallel flow heat exchanger manifold with a split structure is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a novel parallel flow heat exchanger manifold with a split structure, in order to solve the problem that the baffles of the traditional manifold are fixed in position at the factory and the positions of the baffles at both ends cannot be adjusted, making it impossible to make adaptive adjustments according to the needs of different power equipment, which easily leads to uneven airflow and affects the heat exchange effect.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A novel parallel flow heat exchanger manifold with a split-flow structure includes a manifold body. An outlet groove is formed on one side of the rear end of the manifold body, and an inlet groove is formed on the other side. An airflow regulating component is fixedly installed in the middle of the rear end of the manifold body. An end cap is fixedly connected to one end of the manifold body, and a flat tube is fixedly connected to the front end face of the manifold body. The airflow regulating component includes a support box. A bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected to the middle of the inner side of the support box.

Each separating mechanism includes a lead screw seat. A partition block is fixedly connected to the outer side of the lead screw seat. A partition plate is fixedly connected to one end of the partition block. A square groove is formed on the front end face of the partition plate. An installation groove is formed in the middle of the front end face of the partition plate. A hollow tube is fixedly connected to the inner side of the installation groove. A connecting seat is elastically connected to the inner side of the hollow tube via a return spring. A ball bearing is fixedly connected to the front end of the connecting seat.

[0007] As a further optimization of this utility model, the end cap is tapered, the inner side of the end cap is connected to the inner side of the manifold body, and a plug is threadedly connected to the middle of the end cap.

[0008] As a further optimization of this utility model, the number of flat tubes is set to several, and the several flat tubes are arranged at equal intervals on the front end face of the manifold body.

[0009] As a further optimization of this utility model, the outer side of the partition block is slidably connected to the inner side of the support box, and the outer side of the partition plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the manifold body.

[0010] As a further optimization of this utility model, the inner side of the support box is connected to the inner side of the manifold body, and the width of the inner side of the flat tube is twice the outer diameter of the marble.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] In this invention, by setting up an airflow adjustment component and a separation mechanism, the position of the lead screw seat is adjusted by an adjustment wheel, thereby precisely controlling the distance between the two partitions. This method can optimize the flow state of the airflow in the manifold to adapt to different power equipment and ensure more uniform and stable flow. With the cooperation of the ball and the return spring, the sound made when the ball pops out makes it easier for the staff to judge the position of the partition and avoids the partition from obstructing the port of the flat tube during the movement.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0024] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] The novel parallel flow heat exchanger manifold with a split-flow structure includes a manifold body 1. An outlet groove 2 is provided on one side of the rear end of the manifold body 1, and an inlet groove 3 is provided on the other side of the rear end of the manifold body 1. An airflow regulating component 4 is fixedly installed in the middle of the rear end of the manifold body 1. An end cap 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the manifold body 1, and flat tubes 6 are fixedly connected to the front end face of the manifold body 1. Several flat tubes 6 are arranged equidistantly on the front end face of the manifold body 1. The airflow regulating component 4 includes a support box 41. A bidirectional lead screw 42 is rotatably connected to the middle of the inner side of the support box 41, and an adjusting wheel 43 is rotatably connected to one end of the support box 41. The two bidirectional lead screws 42... The sides are threaded with a separating mechanism 44, which includes a lead screw seat 441. A partition block 442 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the lead screw seat 441. A partition plate 443 is fixedly connected to one end of the partition block 442. A square groove 444 is opened on the front end face of the partition plate 443. An installation groove 445 is opened in the middle of the front end face of the partition plate 443. A cavity tube 446 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the installation groove 445. A connecting seat 448 is elastically connected to the inner side of the cavity tube 446 through a return spring 447. The outer side of the connecting seat 448 is slidably connected to the inner side of the cavity tube 446. A ball 449 is fixedly connected to the front end of the connecting seat 448. The diameter of the connecting seat 448 is adapted to the diameter of the ball 449.

[0027] As a further implementation of this scheme, the end cap 5 is conical in shape, and the inner side of the end cap 5 is connected to the inner side of the collector tube body 1. The end cap 5 is threaded with a plug 7 in the middle. By opening the plug 7, the conical shape of the end cap 5 facilitates the collection of sound and transmits the sound inside the collector tube body 1 to the outside. The position of the partition 443 can be determined by the sound of the ball 449 popping out.

[0028] As a further implementation of this solution, the outer side of the partition 442 is slidably connected to the inner side of the support box 41, and the outer side of the partition 443 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the manifold body 1. This arrangement facilitates the adjustment of the position of the partition 443.

[0029] As a further implementation of this solution, the inner side of the support box 41 is connected to the inner side of the manifold body 1. The width of the inner side of the flat tube 6 is twice the outer diameter of the ball 449. This arrangement will not obstruct the ejection of the ball 449 and leaves room for it.

[0030] As a further implementation of this solution, the interior of the cavity tube 446 is connected to the inner side of the square groove 444, the bottom end of the return spring 447 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the inner side of the cavity tube 446, and the top end of the return spring 447 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the connecting seat 448. This arrangement is conducive to the mutual cooperation between components and avoids obstruction between components.

[0031] Work process: Gas enters the inside of the manifold body 1 through the inlet groove 3, and the airflow direction is changed by the baffle 443. Then, the gas undergoes heat exchange through the flat tube 6 and is finally discharged through the outlet groove 2. In order to adapt to equipment with different power, the position of the lead screw seat 441 can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting wheel 43. When the adjusting wheel 43 rotates, the lead screw seat 441 connected by threads on both sides will move accordingly. This relative or opposite movement is transmitted to the baffle 443 through the partition block 442, thereby achieving precise control of the distance between the two baffles 443. The outer side of the partition block 442 is slidably connected to the inner side of the support box 41, while the outer side of the baffle 443 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the manifold body 1.

[0032] To prevent the partition 443 from obstructing the port of the flat tube 6, the width of the inner side of the flat tube 6 is designed to be twice the outer diameter of the ball 449. When the partition 443 moves to the appropriate position, the ball 449 will be pushed out of the port of the flat tube 6. This process is provided by the return spring 447. The operator can judge the specific position of the partition 443 by the sound made when the ball 449 pops out, making the operation more convenient and efficient.

[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
