[0032] According to this utility model, a heat sink is provided, such as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the radiator in this embodiment includes a main body 1, with side plates 11 at both ends along its length, and each side plate 11 is connected to a suspension bracket 12. The specific structure of each of the above-mentioned parts of the radiator according to this utility model will be described in detail below.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the suspension bracket 12 includes a connecting portion formed in an L-shape. Specifically, the connecting portion has a horizontal section and a vertical section 120 connected in sequence. The horizontal section fits into the corresponding side plate 11. Furthermore, the extending direction of the side plate 11 is defined as a first direction. Along the first direction, the vertical section 120 of the connecting portion is located at the end of the horizontal section and is perpendicular to the horizontal section. That is, the suspension bracket 12 is connected to the side plate 11 through the horizontal section. Further, the side plate 11 has a protrusion, and the horizontal section of the connecting portion has a positioning part corresponding to the protrusion. The cooperation between the protrusion and the positioning part ensures the accuracy of the positioning of the suspension bracket 12 during assembly.

[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the protrusion includes multiple protrusions 110, and the positioning part includes multiple positioning holes 1212 corresponding to each of the protrusions 110. The positioning holes 1212 and the corresponding protrusions 110 are fitted with a gap 124. When the suspension frame 12 is assembled, the positioning holes 1212 are fitted onto the outer side of the protrusions 110. Preferably, the protrusions 110 are formed into cylindrical structures, and the protrusion height of each protrusion 110 is set to h, and the thickness of the side plate 11 is set to j, where 1 / 2j ≤ h ≤ 3 / 5j. In addition, there are no specific limitations on the diameter of the protrusions 110, as long as the above-mentioned technical effects can be achieved. In this embodiment, the protrusions 110 are formed by a stamping process.

[0035] It should be noted that there are no specific limitations on the number, location, or arrangement of the protrusions 110 included in the protrusion, as long as they facilitate accurate positioning of the suspension bracket 12. For example, in this embodiment, the protrusion includes two protrusions 110 spaced apart along the first direction.

[0036] In this embodiment, the width direction of the side plate 11 is defined as the second direction, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the vertical segment 120 is formed as a cuboid plate structure with connecting holes for connecting the main body 1 to other components; the horizontal segment is formed with a first sub-horizontal segment 1210 and a second sub-horizontal segment 1211 connected in sequence. The first sub-horizontal segment 1210 is connected to the vertical segment 120, and along the second direction, the width of the first sub-horizontal segment 1210 is greater than the width of the second sub-horizontal segment 1211, so that the horizontal segment is formed as a T-shaped step structure.

[0037] The suspension bracket 12 also includes reinforcing portions disposed at both ends of the connecting portion in the width direction. A gap 124 is formed between the reinforcing portions and the connecting portion. After the connecting portion is connected to the side plate 11, solder is used to fill the gap 124 by welding to achieve a stable connection between the suspension bracket 12 and the side plate 11. Specifically, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the reinforcing part includes two reinforcing plates. Along the second direction, the reinforcing plates are located at both ends of the connecting part and form the gap 124 between them and the horizontal section.

[0038] More specifically, each reinforcing plate includes a first baffle 122, which is connected to the end of the vertical segment 120 along the second direction. The first baffle 122 is perpendicular to the vertical segment 120 and also perpendicular to the horizontal segment. A gap 124 is formed between the side of the first baffle 122 near the side plate 11 and the first sub-horizontal segment 1210. In addition, each reinforcing plate also includes a second baffle 123, which is located on the side of the corresponding first baffle 122 near the side plate 11. The second baffle 123 extends to the step of the horizontal segment so that the second baffle 123 fits against the side plate 11, and a gap 124 is formed between the second baffle 123 and the step of the horizontal segment.

[0039] Thus, the reinforcement effectively increases the overall strength and stability of the suspension frame 12. The specifications of the gap 124 between the reinforcement and the connecting part are not specifically limited, as long as the aforementioned technical effects are achieved. Furthermore, the suspension frame 12 in this embodiment is a one-piece molded structure, formed by a stamping process. This ensures the consistency of the overall structure of the suspension frame 12, thereby further increasing its strength.

[0040] According to the radiator of the present invention as described above, a reinforcing part is provided on the opposite side of the suspension frame 12, and the suspension frame 12 is set as an integrally formed structure, which can effectively improve the stability and structural strength of the overall structure of the suspension frame 12. In addition, the radiator of the present invention has a protrusion on its side plate 11, and a positioning part corresponding to the protrusion is provided at the connecting part of the suspension frame 12. Thus, through the cooperation of the protrusion and the positioning part, the accurate positioning of the suspension frame 12 during assembly can be achieved. Then, welding is performed at the gap formed between the reinforcing part and the connecting part, so that the suspension frame 12 can be stably and accurately assembled at the preset position of the side plate 11 of the radiator.

[0041] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a vehicle is provided, the vehicle including the radiator as described above.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are merely specific implementations of this application, used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and not to limit them. The protection scope of this application is not limited thereto.
