Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive radiator technology, and in particular to a radiator water chamber with high sealing performance. Background Technology

[0002] In the application of radiators, the traditional connection structure and sealing method between the water chamber and the radiator have many shortcomings. With the widespread use of radiators in many industries such as automobiles and industrial cooling, their operating environment is becoming increasingly complex and variable, which places higher demands on the sealing performance and stability of the radiator water chamber.

[0003] Traditional connection methods often rely solely on simple bolts or clips for fastening. Under long-term vibration, temperature changes, and pressure shocks, these connections are prone to loosening, leading to gaps between the water chamber and the radiator and significantly increasing the risk of coolant leakage. Once coolant leaks, it not only affects the radiator's heat dissipation efficiency and causes abnormally high equipment temperatures, but in severe cases, it can even cause equipment damage, downtime, and other consequences, increasing maintenance costs and the risk of production and operational interruptions.

[0004] Moreover, when water chambers develop internal wall leaks due to manufacturing defects or wear and corrosion during use, traditional water chambers lack effective self-repair and sealing compensation mechanisms, requiring either complete replacement or complex external repair measures, which is both time-consuming and costly. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a radiator water chamber with high sealing performance to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution, which includes a water chamber body. Fastening components are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the water chamber body. Each fastening component includes a mounting shell disposed on the side of the water chamber body. A screw is disposed inside the mounting shell. An internal hexagonal cap is disposed on the top of the screw. A driving block is disposed inside the mounting shell. The driving block is threaded onto the screw. A rotating shaft is movably disposed on the driving block via a bearing. An inverted L-shaped clamping block is disposed at the bottom of the rotating shaft.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, an expanding rubber is provided in the wall of the water chamber body.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the bottom of the water chamber body is covered with a sealing rubber sheet.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the outer wall of the water chamber body is provided with reinforcing ribs.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0011] 1. This utility model uses fastening components symmetrically arranged on both sides of the water chamber body. By using a hex wrench to rotate the internal hex cap at the top of the screw, the lifting and lowering of the drive block can be precisely controlled, thereby driving the inverted L-shaped clamping block to fasten the connection between the water chamber body and the radiator. Compared with the traditional connection method, this fastening method can provide a more uniform and stable clamping force, effectively avoiding the problem of loosening of the connection due to long-term use or vibration, thus greatly ensuring the sealing of the connection between the water chamber body and the radiator and preventing coolant leakage at this point.

[0012] 2. This utility model incorporates an expansion rubber within the main wall of the water chamber. When a leak occurs unexpectedly in the inner wall of the water chamber, the expansion rubber will rapidly expand and block the leak once cooling water enters the wall through the leak and comes into contact with it. This feature ensures that even if there is partial damage to the main body of the water chamber, the overall sealing can still be maintained by the automatic leak-sealing function of the expansion rubber, ensuring the normal operation of the radiator and reducing equipment failures and safety hazards that may be caused by coolant leakage.

[0013] 3. This utility model further enhances the overall sealing performance by wrapping the bottom of the water chamber body with a sealing rubber sheet. It can closely fit the surface of the connected components, fill any possible tiny gaps, and effectively prevent coolant from seeping out from the bottom. The sealing rubber sheet can play a good role in buffering and sealing. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0020] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model proposes a high-sealing radiator water chamber. This utility model includes a water chamber body 1, and fastening components 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the water chamber body 1. The fastening components 2 are configured as follows: a mounting shell 20 is provided on the side of the water chamber body 1, a screw 21 is placed inside the mounting shell 20, an internal hexagonal cap 22 is fixed on the top of the screw 21, a driving block 23 is provided inside the mounting shell 20, the driving block 23 is threaded to the screw 21, and the driving block 23 is flexibly connected to the rotating shaft 25 through the bearing 24. The bottom of the rotating shaft 25 is connected to the inverted L-shaped clamping block 26.

[0021] An expansion rubber 10 is embedded in the wall of the water chamber body 1. When a leak occurs in the inner wall of the water chamber body 1, cooling water enters the wall and comes into contact with the expansion rubber 10. The expansion rubber 10 expands upon contact with water, thereby blocking the leak and ensuring overall sealing. A sealing rubber 12 is wrapped around the bottom of the water chamber body 1. This design effectively enhances the sealing when the bottom of the water chamber body 1 is connected to the radiator, preventing coolant leakage. Reinforcing ribs 11 are provided on the outer wall of the water chamber body 1. The reinforcing ribs 11 can significantly improve the structural strength of the water chamber body 1, so that it can maintain good stability and reliability when subjected to internal pressure and external impact, avoiding deformation or damage caused by external forces, and ensuring the normal operation and service life of the entire device.

[0022] After installing the water chamber body 1 onto the radiator, use a hex wrench to rotate the hex cap 22 clockwise. The hex cap 22 drives the screw 21 to rotate. During the rotation of the screw 21, the drive block 23 will descend. Continue rotating until the bottom plate of the inverted L-shaped clamp 26 reaches below the connection between the water chamber body 1 and the radiator, then stop rotating. Next, rotate the inverted L-shaped clamp to the position below the installation point of the radiator and the water chamber body 1. Then, flip the hex cap 22 in the opposite direction. The drive block will then lift the inverted L-shaped clamp 26 until it rests against the bottom of the mounting edge of the radiator. This reinforces the connection between the water chamber body 1 and the radiator, effectively preventing the problem of reduced sealing caused by loose connection between the water chamber body 1 and the radiator.

[0023] When a leak occurs in the inner wall of the water chamber body 1, once the cooling water flows in, it will enter the wall of the water chamber body 1 through the leak and come into contact with the expansion rubber 10. The expansion rubber 10 expands rapidly after encountering water, thereby sealing the leak and ensuring that the overall sealing is not affected, maintaining the normal operation of the equipment.

[0024] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
