DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work are within the protection scope of the present application. In addition, the technical solutions of various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on that a person of ordinary skill in the art can realize, when the combination of technical solutions appears contradictory or unachievable, it should be considered that the combination of technical solutions does not exist, and is not within the protection scope of the present application.

[0025] In the embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figures 1-5 The heat dissipation structure of the electric tool switch mainly comprises a shell 1 and an electronic component assembly 2. An operating button 3 for operating the on-off of the electric tool switch is arranged on the electronic component assembly 2. Mounting grooves 4 are symmetrically formed on both sides of the shell 1. A plurality of heat dissipation members 5 are slidably arranged in the mounting grooves 4. The heat dissipation members 5 can be disassembled or added on the shell 1 according to actual needs. A cavity is formed in the heat dissipation member 5. Heat dissipation liquid 6 is encapsulated in the cavity. A plurality of thin tubes 7 are arranged in an array on one side of the heat dissipation member 5 close to the electronic component assembly 2. Exchange channels 8 are formed in the thin tubes 7 and communicate with the cavity. The thin tubes 7 are in contact with the electronic component assembly 2. The position of the heat dissipation member 5 sliding in the mounting groove 4 can be fixed. The interval between the two heat dissipation members 5 can be adjusted. When the heat dissipation members 5 are not fixed, that is, when the heat dissipation members 5 are naturally stacked in the mounting grooves 4, a certain number of heat dissipation members 5 can exactly fill one side of the shell 1. The heat dissipation members 5 are arranged on at least one side of the shell 1.

[0026] Some preferred / improved embodiments based on the above embodiments will be further described below. The following embodiments can be selected or combined.

[0027] As Figure 1As shown, the mounting groove 4 divides the mounting plate 9 from the housing 1. The mounting plate 9 has a plurality of open slots 10 arrayed on it. The housing 1 and the mounting plate 9 are made of iron. The number of open slots 10 is a certain number. The number of open slots 10 in the figure is only an example. The opening of the open slots 10 will not affect the structural strength of the mounting plate 9.

[0028] Furthermore, a pair of sliders 11 extend from each side of the heat sink 5. The heat sink 5 is detachably installed on the housing 1 by sliding the sliders 11 into the mounting groove 4. By increasing or decreasing the number of heat sinks 5 and adjusting the gap between them, different degrees of heat dissipation can be achieved to adapt to the heat dissipation function required by the switch in different power tool working environments. Once the heat sink 5 is adjusted, it does not need to be replaced or adjusted again after being installed in the power tool, thus providing a long-lasting heat dissipation effect.

[0029] Furthermore, a magnet rod 12 matching the opening groove 10 is placed inside the opening groove 10. The magnet rod 12 is used to fix the position of the heat sink 5 in the mounting groove 4. The heat sink 5 is adjusted to a suitable position above the opening groove 10, and then the magnet rod 12 is completely inserted into the opening groove 10. The opening groove 10 can then be attracted to the opening groove 10. If the power tool is in a high-vibration environment, a clamp can be used to clamp the heat sink 5 and the magnet rod 12 together for fixation. Alternatively, screws and nuts can be used to directly fix the magnet to the mounting plate 9.

[0030] like Figures 2-3 As shown, the cavity contains several partition plates 13, which are parallel to each other and arranged in an array along the height of the cavity. Each partition plate 13 is a concave arc-shaped plate. The partition plates 13 divide the cavity into several independent chambers 14. The partition plates divide the cavity into several small chambers 14. The heat dissipation liquid 6 in a single chamber 14 moves more efficiently in the smaller chambers 14, and the heat exchange is faster, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. In addition, the concave partition plates can reduce the influence of water pressure on the capillary tube 7, so that the heat dissipation liquid 6 can enter the exchange channel 8 of the suction tube under the influence of the capillary tube 7. The heat dissipation liquid 6 can be water or isopropanol.

[0031] In some embodiments, the heat sink 5 has a plurality of parallel heat sinks 15 arranged on its outer side. The array of heat sinks 15 can increase the heat dissipation area, and the gaps between the heat sinks 15 can guide the air to undergo thermal motion, accelerate air flow, and improve heat dissipation efficiency.

[0032] In some embodiments, the thin tube 7 comprises a first section 701 extending vertically from the heat sink 5 and a second section 702 extending vertically upward from the end of the first section 701, the connection between the first section 701 and the second section 702 is curved, the exchange channel 8 inside the curved connection is a smooth arc-shaped channel, which avoids affecting the normal flow exchange of the heat sink liquid 6, wherein the second section 702 is in contact with the electronic component assembly 2, the contact surface is a plane, the curved second section 702 increases the heat absorption area of the thin tube 7 and reduces the influence of water pressure, the thin tube 7 and the heat sink 5 synchronously absorb heat, the heat absorption area is large and the heat absorption effect is good. Thus, various embodiments of the present application have been described in detail. In order to avoid obscuring the concept of the present application, some details known in the art are not described. Those skilled in the art can fully understand how to implement the technical solutions disclosed herein based on the above description.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and the foregoing embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can understand that the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments can still be modified, or some technical features can be replaced by equivalent ones; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
