[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0021] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Figures 1-4 This is a specific embodiment of the present invention, which is a modular heat dissipation housing for a tractor drive-by-wire chassis controller.
[0023] 1. Housing assembly process:
[0024] a. Pre-installation preparation:
[0025] The controller circuit board is fixed to the surface of the aluminum substrate 101 of the upper mounting layer 1 with 4 sets of M4 stainless steel screws. Thermal grease (model: T-Global TG9400) is evenly applied in the groove. The silicone pad is attached to the top plane of the heat dissipation fins of the lower heat dissipation layer 2.
[0026] b. Pressing the lower heat dissipation layer:
[0027] Align the lower heat dissipation layer 2 with the bottom surface of the upper mounting layer 1, and apply 10-15N of pressure downwards to cause the silicone pad to undergo 30% compression deformation (the thickness after compression is 3.5mm). At this time, the distance between the upper and lower layers is reduced until the contact surfaces are completely in contact.
[0028] Elastic locking mechanism: The rebound force of the silicone pad continuously provides a contact pressure of 0.15-0.2MPa, ensuring stable heat conduction between the aluminum substrate 101 and the heat sink 202.
[0029] c. Buckle locking operation:
[0030] Rotate the threaded telescopic post 301 of the buckle 3 while keeping the lower heat dissipation layer 2 pressed. Align the locking plate 302 of the buckle 3 with the bottom edge of the lower heat dissipation layer. The locking plate 302 hooks onto the edge of the slot, and then the pressing of the lower heat dissipation layer is released to complete the mechanical locking.
[0031] 2. Heat dissipation process:
[0032] Airflow path:
[0033] After the cross-flow fan 205 is started, external cold air is drawn in through the 45° inclined louvers of the ventilation grille 206 on one side of the lower heat dissipation layer 2 (wind speed ≥2m / s); the airflow flows out through the ventilation grille 206 on the other side via the heat dissipation fins 202; the filter element 204 will intercept particles with a diameter >0.5mm to prevent clogging of the heat dissipation fins.
[0034] Heat conduction path:
[0035] Controller heating element → thermal grease → aluminum substrate 101 → silicone pad → heat sink 202 → forced convection cooling.
[0036] 3. Maintenance Operations:
[0037] Filter element cleaning: Pull the filter element 204 directly out of the filter element installation slot 203, rinse with clean water, and then let it dry before resetting.
[0038] Replacement of heat dissipation module:
[0039] Rotate the buckle 3 to release the lock and remove the lower heat dissipation layer 2; horizontally pull out the damaged heat dissipation fin 202 from the heat dissipation fin mounting slot 201, replace with a new module and reassemble.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
