[0002] Nowadays, with the rapid development of electronic optical technology products such as projectors, scanners, and cameras, the size of electronic devices is constantly shrinking and the integration is constantly increasing. This leads to a sharp increase in the heat flux density of electronic components. Excessively high operating temperatures will directly reduce the reliability and lifespan of electronic components. Therefore, it is particularly important to reduce the operating temperature of electronic components.
[0003] Taking projectors as an example, most projectors on the market currently use cooling fans for heat dissipation. The cooling fan, optical engine projection module, and electronic control board are integrated into the same housing. The housing has vents that connect to the gaps between the cooling fan, the optical engine projection module, and the various components on the electronic control board, allowing the cooling fan to dissipate heat from inside the housing through these heat dissipation paths. However, this heat dissipation method is ineffective; the narrow heat dissipation paths mean that when a large amount of heat is generated inside the housing, it is difficult to quickly and effectively dissipate most of the heat, thus affecting the projector's performance.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a heat dissipation structure and electro-optical device for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content
[0005] One objective of this invention is to provide a heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots. Without increasing the weight and volume of the high-density electronic devices or changing the original layout of internal components, it can accurately and quickly dissipate heat, achieve rapid cooling of multiple hot spots, improve the performance and safety stability of high-density electronic devices, and reduce costs and manufacturing difficulties.
[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots includes a housing and a fluid guiding component. The housing has a cavity for accommodating the fluid guiding component and multiple heat-generating components. The surface of the housing is provided with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The inner wall of the cavity is provided with multiple heat dissipation channels. The heat dissipation channels are heat-transferringly connected to the corresponding heat-generating components, and the two ends of each heat dissipation channel are respectively connected to the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The fluid guiding component is disposed on the heat dissipation path of the heat dissipation channel.

Furthermore, there is a flow guiding gap between the side of the housing without the fluid inlet and the heat-generating component, and the flow guiding gap connects the fluid inlet and part of the heat dissipation channels.
[0011] Preferably, at least one of the heat dissipation channels includes at least two branch channels.
[0012] Preferably, the width of the branch channels is the same.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the heat dissipation channel is inclined at an angle to the bottom surface of the housing.

[0017] Another objective of this invention is to provide an electronic optical device that, by setting up the aforementioned heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic components with multiple hot spots, helps the overall device maintain stable performance during long-term operation, extends its service life, and improves the user experience.
[0018] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0019] An electro-optical device, including an auxiliary structure and the aforementioned heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots, wherein the auxiliary structure is connected to the heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots.
[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0021] This embodiment provides a heat dissipation structure for multiple hot spots in high-density electronic devices. When multiple heat-generating components inside the housing operate simultaneously and generate a large amount of heat, a heat-conducting fluid can enter the heat dissipation channel from the fluid inlet under the action of the fluid guide. This absorbs the heat generated by the multiple heat-generating components. Driven by the fluid guide and guided by the heat dissipation channel, the heat-conducting fluid can flow efficiently, dissipating the heat from the fluid outlet. Furthermore, by creating slots inside the housing to dissipate heat outward, heat dissipation and rapid cooling of multiple hot spots can be achieved precisely, quickly, and effectively without adding additional heat dissipation structures, increasing the weight and volume of the high-density electronic device, or changing the original layout of the multiple internal heat-generating components. This improves the performance and safety stability of high-density electronic devices while also reducing production costs and manufacturing difficulty.
[0022] This embodiment also provides an electro-optical device. Because the electro-optical device is provided with the above-mentioned heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots, the heat dissipation channels provided in the heat dissipation structure enable the electro-optical device to not only not increase the weight and volume of the overall device, but also to achieve precise and efficient heat dissipation of high-density electronic devices. This helps the overall device maintain stable performance during long-term operation, extends its service life, and improves the user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.

Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature.

They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.
[0038] Combination Figures 1 to 6As shown, this embodiment provides a heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots, used to achieve rapid heat dissipation of multiple hot spots inside electronic devices with high integration density. It can be understood that "multiple hot spots" in this article refers to multiple heat-generating components installed inside the electronic device. The structure includes a housing 1 and a fluid guiding component 2. The housing 1 has a cavity for accommodating the fluid guiding component 2 and multiple heat-generating components. The surface of the housing 1 is provided with a fluid inlet 11 and a fluid outlet 12. Multiple heat dissipation grooves 13 are formed on the inner wall of the cavity. The heat dissipation grooves 13 are connected to the heat-generating components one by one, and the two ends of each heat dissipation groove 13 are respectively connected to the fluid inlet 11 and the fluid outlet 12. The fluid guiding component 2 is disposed on the heat dissipation path of the heat dissipation groove 13.
[0039] With the above configuration, when multiple heat-generating components operate simultaneously and generate a large amount of heat, the heat-conducting fluid can enter the heat dissipation channel 13 from the fluid inlet 11 under the action of the fluid guide 2. This absorbs the heat generated by the multiple heat-generating components, and through the drive of the fluid guide 2 and the guidance of the heat dissipation channel 13, the heat-conducting fluid can flow efficiently, dissipating the heat from the fluid outlet 12. Furthermore, by creating slots inside the housing 1 to dissipate heat outwards, heat dissipation and rapid cooling of multiple hot spots can be achieved precisely, quickly, and effectively without adding additional heat dissipation structures, increasing the weight and volume of high-density electronic devices, or changing the original layout of multiple internal heat-generating components. This improves the performance and safety stability of high-density electronic devices while also reducing production costs and manufacturing difficulty.
[0040] In this embodiment, a projector will be used as an example to describe in detail the heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic devices with multiple hot spots.
[0041] It should be noted in advance that the projector in this embodiment includes an optical engine module, which mainly consists of three parts: a projection component 100, a main control component 200, and a heat sink. The projection component 100, main control component 200, and heat sink are all integrated and installed within the housing 1 of the optical engine module. The projection component 100 includes components such as a light source, an optical lens, and a light engine. The main control component 200 includes components responsible for signal processing and control, such as a main control circuit board and an FPC. Therefore, the optical engine module mainly contains two heat-generating components: the projection component 100 and the main control component 200. The heat sink effectively dissipates heat from the projection component 100 and the main control component 200, ensuring the normal operating temperature of the optical engine module. Its function is the same as that of the fluid guiding component 2. Thus, the optical engine module of this projector can be used as an example of a high-density electronic device to illustrate the heat dissipation structure provided in this embodiment.
[0042] Preferably, the fluid guiding component 2 is a cooling fan, and the corresponding heat-conducting fluid is air. The cooling fan generates airflow through high-speed rotation, which can effectively accelerate the flow of the heat-conducting fluid within the heat dissipation channel 13, thereby helping to further improve heat dissipation efficiency. At the same time, the cooling fan is compact in size and reliable in operation, achieving excellent heat dissipation effect without occupying too much internal space and weight.
[0043] In this embodiment, heat dissipation channels 13 are formed at the bottom of the housing 1, and a flow collecting channel 14 is also formed at the bottom of the housing 1. The flow collecting channel 14 connects the heat dissipation channels 13 and the fluid outlet 12, and the aforementioned fluid guiding component 2 is provided in the flow collecting channel 14, thereby realizing unified control of multiple heat dissipation channels 13 by the fluid guiding component 2. When the fluid guiding component 2 is activated, the heat-conducting fluid can be collected in the flow collecting channel 14 through multiple heat dissipation channels 13, so that the fluid guiding component 2 can quickly and effectively conduct the heat in multiple heat dissipation channels 13 from the fluid outlet 12, ensuring efficient heat dissipation. In addition, the design of the flow collecting channel 14 avoids heat backflow, further improving the stability and reliability of the heat dissipation effect.
[0044] Preferably, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the cross-section of the heat collection channel 14 is circular. The circular design helps to reduce the flow resistance of the heat-conducting fluid and increase the flow rate, thereby preventing heat from accumulating in the heat collection channel 14 and ensuring efficient heat dissipation.
[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, combined with Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the housing 1 has a square structure. The fluid inlet 11 and the fluid outlet 12 are disposed opposite each other on the two side surfaces of the housing 1. The projection component 100, the main control component 200, and the fluid guiding component 2 are disposed close to each other inside the housing 1, with the main control component 200 disposed near the fluid inlet 11 and the projection component 100 and the fluid guiding component 2 disposed near the fluid outlet 12, and the two are arranged side by side, so that the collection groove 14 is located at one corner of the housing 1. In addition, multiple heat dissipation grooves 13 are distributed in a star shape in the cavity, so that some heat dissipation grooves 13 are used for precise docking with the main control component 200, and the remaining heat dissipation grooves 13 are used for precise docking with the projection component 100, so as to achieve the purpose of precise heat conduction for the main control component 200 and the projection component 100. There is a flow guiding gap 101 between the side of the housing 1 without the fluid inlet 11 and the projection component 100, and the flow guiding gap 101 is used to connect the fluid inlet 11 and the remaining heat dissipation grooves 13.
[0046] With the above configuration, the heat-conducting fluid can be split after entering the cavity. A portion of the heat-conducting fluid can directly enter part of the heat dissipation channel to absorb the heat dissipated by the main control component 200, while another portion can enter the remaining heat dissipation channel 13 through the flow guide gap 101 to absorb the heat dissipated by the projection component 100. This achieves efficient heat dissipation for multiple heat-generating components and meets the heat dissipation requirements of other high-density electronic devices with internal component arrangements similar to this optomechanical module.
[0047] Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the layout of the current collection groove 14 and the heat dissipation groove 13 can be adjusted according to the distribution of the internal components of the housing 1 to adapt to the heat dissipation requirements of different types of high-density electronic devices. As long as each heat-generating component can be effectively cooled, it is within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0048] It should be noted that, in order to further improve heat dissipation efficiency, in other parallel embodiments, the bottom of the heat dissipation channel 13 is provided with an inclined angle between it and the bottom surface of the housing 1, so that the bottom of the heat dissipation channel 13 forms an inclined surface. By forming the bottom of the heat dissipation channel 13 into an inclined surface, the heat-conducting fluid can be guided to flow more smoothly to the collection channel 14, reducing flow dead angles and further improving heat dissipation efficiency.
[0049] For example, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, taking one of the heat dissipation channels 13 as an example, the thickness of the inner wall of the cavity is set to H, the depth of the end of the heat dissipation channel 13 facing the fluid inlet 11 is set to h1, A = h1 / H, and A satisfies: 0.3 ≤ A < 0.5; the depth of the end of the heat dissipation channel 13 facing the collection channel 14 is set to h2, B = h2 / H, and B satisfies: 0.5 < B ≤ 0.7.
[0050] For example, A can be 0.3, 0.35, 0.4, or 0.45, and B can be 0.6, 0.65, 0.7, or 0.75; this invention is not limited in this respect. If A is less than 0.3, the depth of the heat dissipation groove 13 will be insufficient, affecting the flow efficiency of the heat-conducting fluid; if B is greater than 0.7, the heat dissipation groove 13 may be excessively deep, increasing flow resistance, reducing heat dissipation effect, and also affecting the structural strength of the housing 1. Preferably, A is 0.3 and B is 0.7. This ratio design achieves the optimal heat dissipation effect while avoiding the phenomenon of the housing 1 being weak at the heat dissipation groove 13, ensuring the stability of the housing 1 in use.
[0051] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, since the main control component 200 occupies a larger space in the housing 1 and has more heat-generating components than the projection component 100, the number of heat dissipation channels 13 for the main control component 200 will also be increased accordingly, and the flow guiding cross-sectional area of the heat dissipation channels 13 will also be increased accordingly.
[0052] For example, in this embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 As shown, there are three heat dissipation channels 13 for cooling the main control component 200, and one heat dissipation channel 13 for cooling the projection component 100. Among the three heat dissipation channels 13 for the main control component 200, preferably two heat dissipation channels 13 have a larger flow guiding cross-sectional area and the other has a smaller one. In order to avoid reducing the structural strength of the bottom of the housing 1, one embodiment is to branch the two heat dissipation channels 13 with larger flow guiding cross-sectional areas, so that each heat dissipation channel 13 includes at least two branch flow channels 131. The design of the branch flow channels 131 ensures that the heat dissipation channel 13 does not reduce the heat dissipation performance of the main control component 200, and can also form a protrusion between the branch flow channels 131 to ensure that the bottom of the housing 1 has sufficient structural strength, thereby maintaining the stability and durability of the overall structure of the housing 1.
[0053] In this embodiment, the heat dissipation channel 13 used for heat dissipation of the projection component 100 is also branched to ensure the structural strength of the housing 1 located at the position of the projection component 100.
[0054] More preferably, the width of the branch channels 131 is the same to ensure that the flow rate of the heat-conducting fluid in each branch channel 131 is uniform and to avoid local overheating.
[0055] Optionally, in this embodiment, a plurality of connecting posts 3 are also provided on the bottom of the cavity. The connecting posts 3 have threaded holes inside. The heating component is connected to the connecting posts 3 by a threaded connector. This threaded connection method not only ensures that the heating component is installed firmly, but also does not hinder the flow of heat-conducting fluid in the heat dissipation channel 13, thereby further improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0056] This embodiment also provides an electro-optical device. Taking the aforementioned projector as an example, the projector includes not only an optical engine module but also an auxiliary structure connected to the optical engine module. This auxiliary structure may include a support frame for fixing the optical engine module and a speaker module for transmitting sound outwards, providing the optical engine module with stable placement and a good sound output environment. Because this electro-optical device incorporates the aforementioned heat dissipation structure for high-density electronic components with multiple hotspots, and through the heat dissipation channels 13 within the heat dissipation structure, the electro-optical device not only does not increase the overall weight and volume of the device but also achieves precise and efficient heat dissipation for the high-density electronic components. This helps the overall device maintain stable performance during long-term operation, extends its service life, and improves the user experience.
