Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling devices, and in particular to a thermoelectric refrigeration and cooling device with high heat exchange efficiency. Background Technology
[0002] Cooling module technology is mainly based on the principles of thermoelectric cooling, phase change materials, air cooling, water cooling and evaporative cooling. Thermoelectric cooling technology is based on the Peltier effect. When current passes through two different conductors or semiconductor materials, the connection point will absorb or release heat, thereby achieving cooling. Thermoelectric cooling components are powered by batteries and transfer heat away from the human body surface.
[0003] Existing thermoelectric cooling devices have a relatively simple structure. They operate continuously with battery power. High efficiency of the cooling module results in high energy consumption, requiring a large battery. The weight and size of these devices make them unportable. If the overall device is lightweight and compact, the cooling efficiency is low, the cooling time is limited, and daily maintenance is inconvenient.
[0004] Therefore, to address the issues of existing thermoelectric cooling devices having a relatively simple structure, high energy consumption due to high cooling module efficiency, poor portability, and low cooling efficiency if the overall device is lightweight and compact, a thermoelectric cooling device with high heat exchange efficiency can be designed. The low temperature generated at the cold end of the thermoelectric cooling element is quickly transferred to the cold electrode metal heat exchange element, resulting in rapid and controllable cooling effect. The phase change material filled in the encapsulation bag absorbs and conducts body heat during the phase change process, assisting in cold storage. The module has a high degree of integration, low power consumption, high cooling efficiency, low loss, and reasonable overall weight and volume. Utility Model Content

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides an embodiment of a thermoelectric cooling device with high heat exchange efficiency, including an outer packaging bag 1; it also includes a cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 and a thermoelectric cooling plate 6. The cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 is disposed at the upper end of the outer packaging bag 1. A heat exchange extension plate 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2. An inner packaging bag 4 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the heat exchange extension plate 3. A packaging bag pressure ring 5 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the inner packaging bag 4. The thermoelectric cooling plate 6 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 and inside the packaging bag pressure ring 5. An insulation plate 7 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the packaging bag pressure ring 5 and outside the thermoelectric cooling plate 6. A hot electrode metal heat exchange plate 8 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the insulation plate 7. In use, the outer packaging bag 1... When in contact with the body, the thermoelectric cooling element 6 is electrically connected to the positive and negative terminals of the power supply to form a circuit. The current passing through the thermoelectric cooling element 6 induces the Peltier effect, generating a hot end and a cold end at each end of the thermoelectric cooling element 6. The heat from the hot end is quickly conducted to the hot electrode metal heat exchange plate 8 and promptly dissipated into the surrounding environment. The low temperature generated at the cold end is quickly transferred to the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2, lowering the temperature and cooling the object or medium in contact with it. The cooling effect is rapid and controllable. At the same time, the encapsulation bag is filled with phase change material, which absorbs and conducts body heat during the phase change process. Cold energy storage is achieved when the thermoelectric cooling element 6 is not continuously powered, reducing thermal shock and assisting in cold storage. The module has a high degree of integration, low power consumption, high cooling efficiency with low loss, strong comfort, reasonable overall weight and volume, and controllable cost.
[0024] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, the outer sheet 1 of the packaging bag is made of moisture-wicking and quick-drying fabric, and the outer side of the inner sheet 4 of the packaging bag is provided with heat-insulating material. The outer sheet 1 and the inner sheet 4 of the packaging bag are sealed together by ultrasonic pressing to form a bag. The packaging bag is soft, thin, and has a suitable shape and size. When the outer sheet 1 of the packaging bag comes into contact with the body, it maintains a reasonable thermal conductivity by absorbing and retaining appropriate moisture and humidity. The heat-insulating material covering the inner sheet 4 of the packaging bag prevents it from absorbing heat from outside the body. A heat sensor and an automatic temperature control switch can be installed on the part of the outer sheet 1 that comes into contact with the body to collect body surface temperature data to determine whether the thermoelectric cooling element 6 is switched on or off. When the temperature of the outer sheet 1 of the packaging bag drops to a preset temperature, the power is disconnected and the cooling stops. The upper end of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2... An internal mounting groove 9 is fixedly connected to the thermoelectric cooling plate 6. The upper end of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2, located on the side of the mounting groove 9, has four fixing holes 10. The outer side of the upper end of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 has eight positioning holes 11 arranged in a ring array. The fixing holes 10 and positioning holes 11 facilitate connection and sealing, resulting in a high degree of module integration. The outer side of the lower end of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 has a groove 12. The lower end of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 is fixedly connected to an annular heat-conducting plate 13. The cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 is immersed in a phase change material with high thermal conductivity. The groove 12 and the annular heat-conducting plate 13 increase the contact area with the phase change material, resulting in high heat conduction efficiency and improved heat dissipation capacity.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the surfaces of the heat exchange extension sheet 3, the inner sheet of the packaging bag 4, and the packaging bag pressure ring 5 are all provided with the same positioning holes 11. The front side of the upper end of the packaging bag pressure ring 5 is symmetrically provided with wire grooves 14. The fixing holes 10 and the positioning holes 11 facilitate connection and sealing. The front end of the thermoelectric cooling chip 6 is electrically connected to the positive and negative poles of the power supply through wires 15 respectively. The wires 15 and the wire grooves 14 are compatible. The wire grooves 14 facilitate the fixing and limiting of the wires 15. The overall integration is high. The upper end of the heat insulation sheet 7 and the lower end of the hot metal heat exchange sheet 8 are provided with the same fixing holes 10. The front side of the lower end of the hot metal heat exchange sheet 8 is provided with the same wire grooves 14. The upper end of the hot metal heat exchange sheet 8 is fixedly connected to a heat sink 16. The hot metal heat exchange sheet 8 quickly conducts heat to the heat sink 16, increases the surface area of the heat sink 16 and accelerates heat dissipation. A micro fan can be installed on the outside of the hot metal heat exchange sheet 8 for forced air cooling and starts and stops synchronously with the thermoelectric cooling chip 6.
[0026] During operation, the outer sheet 1 of the encapsulation bag comes into contact with the body, and the thermoelectric cooling element 6 is electrically connected to the positive and negative terminals of the power supply to form a circuit. The current passing through the thermoelectric cooling element 6 induces the Peltier effect, generating a hot end and a cold end at the two ends of the thermoelectric cooling element 6, respectively. The heat from the hot end is quickly conducted to the hot electrode metal heat exchange plate 8 and dissipated into the surrounding environment in a timely manner. The low temperature generated at the cold end is quickly transferred to the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2. At the same time, the encapsulation bag is filled with phase change material, which absorbs and conducts heat from the body during the phase change process. Cold energy storage is achieved when the thermoelectric cooling element 6 is not continuously powered on, thus assisting in cold storage. The module has a high degree of integration, low power consumption, high cooling efficiency with low loss, strong comfort, reasonable overall weight and volume, and controllable cost.
[0027] Through the above steps, the use of the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2 and the thermoelectric cooling plate 6 allows the low temperature generated at the cold end of the thermoelectric cooling plate 6 to be quickly transferred to the cold electrode metal heat exchange plate 2, resulting in a rapid and controllable cooling effect. The phase change material filled in the packaging bag absorbs and conducts body heat during the phase change process, assisting in cold storage. The module has a high degree of integration, low power consumption, high cooling efficiency and low loss, and a reasonable overall weight and volume. This solves the problems of existing thermoelectric cooling devices having a relatively simple structure, high energy consumption due to high cooling module efficiency, poor portability, and low cooling efficiency if the overall device is lightweight and compact.
