Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts, and in particular to a cooling water pipe connector for an automotive cooling system with a self-locking structure. Background Technology

[0002] The self-locking structure of the automotive cooling system's coolant hose connector primarily ensures a secure connection of the coolant hoses. It effectively prevents the hoses from loosening during vehicle operation due to vibrations, coolant pressure fluctuations, or other factors, thus avoiding coolant leakage and ensuring the normal operation of the cooling system. The self-locking structure makes installation and disassembly more convenient and efficient, reducing maintenance time and costs. Simultaneously, the excellent sealing maintains stable cooling system pressure, improves heat dissipation efficiency, prevents engine damage from overheating, extends engine life, and enhances vehicle safety and reliability.

[0003] Existing automotive cooling system coolant pipe connectors with self-locking structures use a plastic body and an insert made of pressure-resistant material. The plastic body includes a connector body and a fixing part connected to the bottom of the connector body. The connector body has a liquid passage hole, and the fixing part has a first through hole. Although this design can achieve stable self-locking at room temperature, it cannot cope with use in different environments, lacks broad adaptability, and provides a poor user experience. For example, Chinese patent disclosure "Coolant Pipe Connector" (application number CN201721423183.3) uses a plastic body and an insert made of pressure-resistant material. The plastic body includes a connector body and a fixing part connected to the bottom of the connector body. The connector body has a liquid passage hole, and the fixing part has a first through hole. Although this design can achieve stable self-locking at room temperature, it cannot cope with use in different environments. In cold weather conditions, the coolant may become viscous or even freeze due to the low temperature. When the coolant freezes, its volume expands, which may exert enormous pressure on the coolant pipe and connector, causing the pipe to rupture or the connector to loosen. Utility Model Content

It provides a self-locking cooling water pipe connector for automotive cooling systems, aiming to improve upon the fact that existing self-locking automotive cooling system cooling water pipe connectors do not take into account the preheating of coolant in cold environments. In cold weather, the coolant may become viscous or even freeze due to excessively low temperatures. When the coolant freezes, its volume expands, which may exert enormous pressure on the cooling water pipes and connectors, leading to pipe rupture or loosening of the connectors.

[0005] This utility model also provides a cooling water pipe connector for an automotive cooling system with the aforementioned self-locking structure, comprising: a front-end anti-collision high-temperature resistant housing, wherein a main mounting groove is provided inside the front-end anti-collision high-temperature resistant housing, an outer heat collector tube heat conduction frame is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the main mounting groove, an outer heat collector tube is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the outer heat collector tube heat conduction frame, a self-locking water inlet pipe heat conduction frame is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the self-locking water inlet pipe heat conduction frame, a self-locking water inlet pipe and a self-locking water outlet pipe are fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of both the self-locking water inlet pipe and the self-locking water outlet pipe, and a through-hole type controllable temperature heater is fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of both the self-locking water inlet pipe and the self-locking water outlet pipe.

Beneficial effects

[0013] Compared to existing technologies, this self-locking automotive cooling system water pipe connector, during use, effectively and uniformly heats the cable core through the coordinated use of the outer heat collection cylinder, the self-locking inlet pipe heat conduction frame, the self-locking inlet pipe, the through-hole type controllable temperature heater, the self-locking outlet pipe, and the self-locking groove. Furthermore, the self-locking outlet pipe, combined with these components, enables the self-locking automotive cooling system water pipe connector to preheat the coolant in cold environments.

[0022] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of this utility model. Preferred embodiments of this utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and overall technical solution of this utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 This utility model discloses a car cooling system cooling water pipe connector with a self-locking structure, comprising: a front anti-collision high-temperature resistant housing 1; a main mounting groove 14 is provided inside the front anti-collision high-temperature resistant housing 1; an outer heat collector tube heat conduction frame 19 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the main mounting groove 14; an outer heat collector tube 15 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the outer heat collector tube heat conduction frame 19; a self-locking water inlet pipe heat conduction frame 20 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the outer heat collector tube 15; a self-locking water inlet pipe 17 and a self-locking water outlet pipe 22 are fixedly connected to the inner surface of the self-locking water inlet pipe 17 and the self-locking water outlet pipe 22; a through-hole type controllable temperature heater 21 is fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of both the self-locking water inlet pipe 17 and the self-locking water outlet pipe 22; a self-locking groove 23 is provided inside the self-locking water outlet pipe 22; a cooling water through hole 18 is provided inside the self-locking water inlet pipe 17; and a cooling water through hole 18 is provided inside the self-locking water outlet pipe 22.

[0024] Specifically, the cooling water in the vehicle cooling system flows from the self-locking inlet pipe 17 into the cooling water through hole 18, and then into the interior of the through-hole type controllable temperature heater 21, flowing into the self-locking outlet pipe 22. The through-hole type controllable temperature heater 21 is specifically connected to the self-locking inlet pipe 17 and the self-locking outlet pipe 22 at both ends. Therefore, when the cooling water flows in the vehicle cooling system, the closer to the two ends of the through-hole type controllable temperature heater 21, the better the preheating effect. This allows the heat to be conducted to the outer heat collection cylinder heat conduction frame 19 and the self-locking inlet pipe heat conduction frame 20, thereby diffusing the heat to the main mounting slot 14 and the sub-mounting slot 16. This achieves uniform heating of the self-locking inlet pipe 17 and the self-locking outlet pipe 22 by the front anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 1, the middle anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 2, and the rear anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 3.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The outer surface of the front anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 1 is fixedly connected with the front anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell connecting chamfer 4, and the inner surface of the front anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 1 is fixedly connected with the middle anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 2. The outer heat collection cylinder 15 is provided with a separate installation groove 16. The upper outer surface of the middle anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 2 is fixedly connected with the support block 1 6, and the lower outer surface of the middle anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 2 is fixedly connected with the support block 2 7. The internal thread of the support block 1 6 is connected with the mounting bolt 1 8, mounting bolt 2 9 and mounting bolt 3 10. The internal thread of the support block 2 7 is connected with the mounting bolt 4 11, mounting bolt 5 12 and mounting bolt 6 13. The rear outer surface of the middle anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 2 is fixedly connected with the rear anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 3, and the outer surface of the rear anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell 3 is fixedly connected with the rear anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell connecting chamfer 5.

[0026] Specifically, the water pipe joint is tightly wrapped by the front anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell connecting chamfered edge 4 and the rear anti-collision high-temperature resistant shell connecting chamfered edge 5, effectively preventing heat leakage. After the support block 1 6 and support block 2 7 cooperate with the installation bolts 1 8, 2 9, 3 10, 4 11, 5 12 and 6 13, the device preheating effect is finally stable, self-locking is firm, and the installation is reliable.

[0027] Working Principle: During use, the device, through the coordinated operation of the outer heat collection cylinder 15, the self-locking water inlet heat conduction frame 20, the self-locking water inlet pipe 17, the through-hole controllable temperature heater 21, the self-locking water outlet pipe 22, and the self-locking groove 23, can effectively and uniformly heat the cable core. Through the coordinated operation of the self-locking water outlet pipe 22, these components enable the self-locking structure of the automotive cooling system's coolant pipe joint to preheat the coolant in cold environments. In cold weather, the coolant may become viscous or even freeze due to low temperatures. When the coolant freezes, its volume expands, which may exert enormous pressure on the coolant pipe and joint, effectively preventing pipe rupture or joint loosening.

[0028] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this utility model.
