[0043] The embodiment also provides a vehicle comprising the synthetic jet-based vehicle lamp module.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] Those skilled in the art can understand the embodiment as a more specific description of embodiment 1.

[0046] The embodiment provides a vehicle lamp module heat dissipation structure based on a synthetic jet technology.

[0047] The vehicle lamp ECU controls power supply and sends control instructions to the diaphragm driving plate 4 in the synthetic jet heat dissipation system through the connector 1; after receiving the instructions, the diaphragm driving plate 4 controls the diaphragm 5 to vibrate at a certain frequency and amplitude, the diaphragm moves in the vibration compression cavity 3, the air in the cavity is ejected from the air exhaust / inhale hole 6 and acts on the fins of the heat sink 7, thereby taking away the heat around the fins. At the same time, the surrounding cold air enters the vibration compression cavity 3 from the air inhale hole, so as to prepare for the next air exhaust, thereby repeating the work to dissipate heat. The fixing support 2 fixes the connector 1, the synthetic jet system and the light source PCBA plate 8 to the lens support 9; the light source PCBA plate 8 is directly fixed between the heat sink 7 and the lens support 9; the module lens 10 is fixed to the lens support 9 in a screwing mode, thereby forming a complete module heat dissipation system.

[0048] The connector 1 is a bridge for controlling the synthetic jet heat dissipation system by the ECU, provides power supply for the diaphragm driver, sends the diaphragm control signal frequency, current and the like, and simultaneously collects the temperature parameters of the synthetic jet heat dissipation system.

[0049] The fixing support 2 fixes the connector 1, the synthetic jet system and the light source PCBA plate 8 to the lens support 9, and plays a fixing role.

[0050] The vibration compression cavity 3 is composed of a sealed cavity, a series of air exhaust / inhale holes 6 are distributed on the surface of the cavity, and the holes are just aligned with the fin gap of the heat sink 7. The diaphragm 5 is fixed at the bottom of the vibration compression cavity 3, and the diaphragm control plate 4 is fixed at the side of the cavity.

[0051] The diaphragm driving plate 4 receives the relevant control signals of the ECU, controls the current size and frequency speed acting on the diaphragm 5 through the corresponding hardware circuit, so as to drive the diaphragm 5 to work.

[0052] The diaphragm 5 is a component for converting the electric signal into mechanical vibration and compressing and absorbing the gas in the synthetic jet heat dissipation system. It is an important part of the synthetic jet heat dissipation system. The diaphragm is installed between a pair of magnets and connected with the voice coil. When the current passes through the voice coil, it will be affected by the magnetic field and start to move. With the change of the driving current and the driving frequency signal, the voice coil and the diaphragm will also move at a corresponding frequency and amplitude, so that the air in the cavity is compressed and rarefied.

[0053] The heat sink 7, when the light source PCBA plate 8 works, the LED group or the light source will inevitably generate a large amount of heat, which can be transferred from the heat source to the environment through the heat sink.

[0054] The light source PCBA board 8, on which the light source and control circuit required by the light emitting module are arranged, generates a large amount of heat, and the PCBA is fixed on the heat sink 7 through heat dissipation glue; at the same time, the temperature sensor arranged on the light source PCBA board 10 can indirectly obtain the temperature of the heat sink and feed back to the ECU through the connector 1. The ECU adjusts the control parameters to the diaphragm driving board 4 in real time according to the feedback temperature, so as to form a closed loop of temperature precise control.

[0055] The lens support 9 is used for fixing the optical module lens, and can ensure that the light source on the light source PCBA board and the module lens 10 are accurately matched in size;

[0056] The module lens 10 is an optical device installed in front of the light source PCBA board 8, and is used for adjusting and controlling the emission direction and distribution of light. The scattered light emitted by the LED light source can be concentrated into a beam, so that higher brightness and longer irradiation distance can be achieved.

[0057] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , A is a diaphragm, B is a nozzle, C is a compression chamber, D is a vortex air bomb, E is a fresh cold air flow, F is a synthetic jet air flow, G is a heat sink, and H is hot air.

[0058] The principle of synthetic jet technology is that a diaphragm similar to a loudspeaker element vibrates the air in the compression chamber at a certain frequency. After the air is compressed, it is sprayed at high speed from a small nozzle, forming an air bomb that sprays towards the heat sink. The air bomb drives the air around the heat sink to flow and take away heat. At the same time, the fresh cold air flow around the nozzle enters the compression chamber through the nozzle, preparing for the next compression of the chamber.

[0059] The working principle of the diaphragm is that there is a coil in the control system which is located in a fixed magnetic field and connected to the diaphragm. When alternating current passes through the coil, according to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, an electric current is generated in the conductor, which interacts with the fixed magnetic field. According to Lorentz's law, charged particles will be subjected to force under the action of a changing magnetic field, which leads to the movement of the coil. The coil is connected to the diaphragm, which transmits the force to the diaphragm. With the vibration of the coil, the diaphragm also vibrates, so that the air in the chamber is compressed and thinned.

[0060] At the same time, the amplitude and frequency of the diaphragm are determined by the size and frequency of the current passing through the coil. By controlling the current, the diaphragm vibration can be accurately controlled. This provides the possibility of low noise and controllable heat dissipation for the embodiment.

[0061] Further, the whole lamp ECU drives the diaphragm to work according to certain amplitude and frequency according to the heat condition of the module (temperature sensor can be arranged on the module to collect data by the ECU).

[0062] Further, the diaphragm works in the sealed cavity, air is compressed and sprayed out from the small nozzle at high speed to form air bullets sprayed to the radiating fins through the air inlet vent.

[0063] Further, the air bullets drive the hot air around the radiator to flow through the air outlet vent to discharge the hot air around the radiator and suck in fresh cold air.

[0064] Further, the diaphragm can work according to the actual heat condition of the module according to the set control amplitude and frequency and can be accurately controlled by the ECU.

[0065] Further, the ECU can collect the heat data of the module in real time and dynamically adjust the control amplitude and frequency of the diaphragm to finally dynamically stabilize the temperature of the module in the controllable temperature range.

[0066] The airflow thermal efficiency of the synthetic jet assembly of the embodiment is higher than that of the traditional air cooling, and the pulsating flow makes the heat transfer from the heat source to the air more effective, so that better cooling effect can be obtained by using less air.

[0067] Since the synthetic jet assembly generates airflow with high thermal efficiency, the required air flow is reduced. Lower flow rate means less sound and less noise. In addition, since it does not have any bearing, brush or other friction parts, the synthetic jet assembly eliminates the noise problem related to the interface. The diaphragm of the synthetic jet cooling module vibrates at a frequency that is not sensitive to the human ear, and the noise is very small, even almost imperceptible, and the noise is less than 25db.

[0068] The synthetic jet cooling module of the embodiment has lower fan heat dissipation power consumption than the fan, and the main energy consumption part of the cooling module is a driving module, the diaphragm, which has lower power consumption than the motor part of the fan, and the power is less than 1W. In addition, the vibration amplitude can be accurately controlled according to the system fan heat demand, and energy is saved.

[0069] The embodiment has small size and light weight, and due to the special structure of the synthetic jet cooling module, it can be used in some lamp bodies where fans cannot be installed.

[0070] The airflow thermal efficiency of the synthetic jet assembly of the utility model is higher than that of the traditional air cooling, and the pulsating flow makes the heat transfer from the heat source to the air more effective, so that better cooling effect can be obtained by using less air.
