Detailed Implementation

[0034] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0035] Figure 1 This diagram shows the structure of the water-cooled radiator of this invention. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of the first water chamber in this invention is shown. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of the second water chamber in this invention is shown. Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the assembly frame in this utility model is shown. Figure 5 It shows Figure 4 Enlarged view of point A in the image. Figure 6 A cross-sectional view of the water-cooled radiator of this invention is shown. Figure 7 It shows Figure 6 Enlarged view of point B in the image. Figure 8 It shows Figure 6 The enlarged view at point C shows that the water-cooled radiator includes: a heat dissipation section 2 and at least two assembly frames 1; the heat dissipation section 2 includes: a heat dissipation unit 21 and a mixing water chamber 22, the mixing water chamber 22 is installed at both ends of the heat dissipation unit 21 and is installed between two adjacent assembly frames 1; the assembly frames 1 are provided with limiting bosses 11 at both ends, the mixing water chamber 22 is snapped into the assembly frame 1, and the side wall of the limiting boss 11 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mixing water chamber 22. In this embodiment, the water radiator includes two assembly frames 1. The limiting boss 11 is used to limit the position of the mixing water chamber 22, avoiding the need for alignment of the mixing water chamber 22 during processing before welding, thus improving welding efficiency. It also increases the contact area between the assembly frame 1 and the mixing water chamber 22, which is beneficial for more of the outer shell of the mixing water chamber 22 to be heated to a molten state during welding. A larger fusion area means more base material and weld material to combine, forming a stronger connection and improving the connection strength between the mixing water chamber 22 and the assembly frame 1.

[0036] Furthermore, the heat dissipation unit 21 includes: multiple parallel heat dissipation pipes 211 and multiple layers of heat dissipation fins 212; any one of the heat dissipation pipes 211 is located between two adjacent layers of heat dissipation fins 212. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation unit 21 includes twelve heat dissipation pipes 211 and thirteen layers of heat dissipation fins 212. The heat dissipation pipes 211 and the heat dissipation fins 212 are arranged sequentially. Both sides of any one heat dissipation pipe 211 are connected to the heat dissipation fins 212. The heat dissipation fins 212 are in direct contact with both sides of the heat dissipation pipes, reducing the thermal resistance during heat transfer. The heat dissipation fins 212 can more effectively absorb and dissipate heat in the heat dissipation pipes, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency.

[0037] Furthermore, the mixing water chamber 22 includes a first water chamber 221 and a second water chamber 222. The first water chamber 221 is located on one side of the heat dissipation unit 21, and the second water chamber 222 is located on the other side of the heat dissipation unit 21. The first water chamber 221 is connected to the second water chamber 222 via multiple heat dissipation pipes 211. In this embodiment, the first water chamber 221 is connected to the second water chamber 222 via twelve heat dissipation pipes 211, of which six heat dissipation pipes 211 are used to guide the liquid in the first water chamber 221 to the second water chamber 222, and the remaining six heat dissipation pipes 211 are used to guide the liquid in the second water chamber 222 back to the first water chamber 221. This prolongs the time the water flows in the heat dissipation pipes 211, allowing the heat carried by the water to be fully transferred to the heat dissipation pipes 211 and the heat dissipation fins 212, which is beneficial to improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the water-cooled radiator.

[0038] Furthermore, the first water chamber 221 has a plurality of first fixing holes 2211 on its side wall near the heat dissipation unit 21, and one end of each of the heat dissipation pipes 211 is inserted into the first fixing hole 2211; the second water chamber 222 has a second fixing hole 2221 on its side wall near the heat dissipation unit 21, and the other end of each of the heat dissipation pipes 211 is inserted into the second fixing hole 2221. In this embodiment, the first water chamber 221 has twelve first fixing holes 2211, one of which corresponds to one end of one of the twelve heat dissipation pipes 211; the second water chamber 222 has twelve second fixing holes 2221, one of which corresponds to the other end of one of the twelve heat dissipation pipes 211. One end of the heat dissipation pipe 211 is inserted into the first fixing hole 2211, and the other end of the heat dissipation pipe 211 is inserted into the second fixing hole 2221. The corresponding heat dissipation pipes 211 are fixed from both ends to avoid the risk of the heat dissipation pipes 211 moving during use, which helps to ensure the stability of the water radiator.

[0039] Furthermore, any one of the first fixing holes 2211 extends towards the first water chamber 221 to form a first mounting plate 2212, which contacts the corresponding heat dissipation pipe 211; any one of the second fixing holes 2221 extends towards the second water chamber 222 to form a second mounting plate 2222, which also contacts the corresponding heat dissipation pipe 211. When the heat dissipation pipe 211 is inserted into the corresponding first fixing hole 2211 or second fixing hole 2221, the mounting plate contacts the heat dissipation pipe 211, increasing the contact area between the mounting plate and the heat dissipation pipe 211. This more effectively disperses the pressure at the connection point, thereby improving the strength of the entire connection structure and reducing the risk of damage to the connection point due to excessive pressure, ensuring the stability and safety of the connection. Secondly, the increased contact area between the mounting plate and the heat dissipation pipe 211 helps reduce the vibration generated by the heat dissipation pipe 211 during operation. The mounting plate can effectively absorb and disperse vibration energy, thereby reducing the impact of vibration and noise on the surrounding environment and equipment.

[0040] Furthermore, a partition 2213 is provided inside the first water chamber 221, dividing the interior of the first water chamber 221 into an inlet chamber 2214 and an outlet chamber 2215 based on the partition 2213. The inlet chamber 2214 is provided with a water inlet, and the outlet chamber 2215 is provided with a water outlet. The partition 2213 is used to separate the inlet chamber 2214 and the outlet chamber 2215, preventing direct flow of water between the two chambers and facilitating the flow of heated water along the return path. In this embodiment, the inlet chamber 2214 is connected to the second water chamber 222 through six heat dissipation pipes 211, and the second water chamber 222 is connected to the outlet chamber 2215 through six heat dissipation pipes 211. When heated water enters the inlet chamber 2214, it flows into the heat dissipation pipes 211 connected to the inlet chamber 2214. During its flow through the heat dissipation pipes 211, the water transfers its heat to the heat dissipation pipes 211, which then transfers this heat to the heat dissipation fins 212. When water flows into the second water chamber 222 and the water level rises to submerge the six uppermost heat dissipation pipes 211, the water flows through these six pipes into the outlet chamber 2215. Each time a heat dissipation pipe 211 is submerged, the water first flows from that pipe into the outlet chamber 2215, thus flowing along the return path. This ensures that the heat carried by the water is fully transferred to the heat dissipation pipes 211 and the heat dissipation fins 212, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the water-cooled radiator.

[0041] Furthermore, the inlet chamber 2214 is located at the bottom of the outlet chamber 2215, and the number of heat dissipation pipes 211 connected to the inlet chamber 2214 is the same as the number of heat dissipation pipes 211 connected to the outlet chamber 2215. When the number of heat dissipation pipes 211 connected to the inlet chamber 2214 and the number of heat dissipation pipes 211 connected to the outlet chamber 2215 are the same, it is easier to achieve flow balance, which helps to ensure the stability of water flow in the heat dissipation pipes 211 and avoid situations where the local water flow is too large or too small, causing the water flow in some heat dissipation pipes 211 to stay in the radiator for too short a time, failing to fully carry and release heat, resulting in a decrease in the heat dissipation effect of the water-cooled radiator. This helps to ensure that the water flow inside the water-cooled radiator remains stable and improves the heat dissipation effect of the water-cooled radiator.

[0042] Furthermore, the partition 2213 is integrally formed with the water inlet chamber 2214 or the water outlet chamber 2215. The integral forming of the partition 2213 and the water inlet chamber 2214 or the water outlet chamber 2215 ensures the sealing between them, preventing the fluid with high heat in the water outlet chamber 2215 from seeping into the water inlet chamber 2214 during use. This would prevent the fluid in the water inlet chamber 2214 from absorbing more heat, reduce the risk of heat transfer from the water outlet chamber 2215 to the water inlet chamber 2214, and improve the heat dissipation effect of the water radiator.

[0043] Furthermore, the assembly frame 1 is provided with a connecting plate 12, and the connecting plate 12 is provided with mounting holes 121. The connecting plate 12 is used to increase the mounting position of the assembly frame 1 to help the cooling fan be mounted on the assembly frame 1, and the mounting holes 121 are used to fix the cooling fan in the corresponding position. When the cooling fan is mounted on one side of the assembly frame 1 based on the connecting plate 12, when the cooling fan is working, it blows an appropriate amount of air onto the heat dissipation section 2, increasing the airflow velocity in the heat dissipation section 2 and increasing the heat dissipation efficiency of the water-cooled radiator.

[0044] Furthermore, the heat dissipation fins 212 are made of metal. Preferably, the heat dissipation fins 212 are made of aluminum, a metal with excellent thermal conductivity. Aluminum can quickly transfer heat from the heat dissipation pipes 211 to the heat dissipation fins 212, and then dissipate the heat to the surrounding environment through air convection or radiation, thus accelerating heat dissipation efficiency. Aluminum has a relatively low density, and aluminum heat dissipation fins 212 can reduce the weight of the water-cooled radiator while maintaining sufficient strength, reducing the workload for workers moving the radiator to its designated location. A dense oxide film forms on the surface of the aluminum, protecting it from further oxidation and external corrosion, thus extending the service life of the heat dissipation fins 212.

[0045] In summary, this utility model, by setting a limiting boss on the assembly frame, restricts the position of the mixing chamber, avoiding the need for alignment of the mixing chamber during processing before welding, reducing the manual alignment steps between the mixing chamber and the assembly frame, and improving welding efficiency. The limiting boss increases the contact area between the assembly frame and the mixing chamber, allowing more of the mixing chamber's outer shell to be heated to a molten state during welding, resulting in a larger fusion area between the mixing chamber and the assembly frame. This increased fusion area leads to a stronger connection, improving the connection strength between the mixing chamber and the assembly frame, and reducing the risk of fluid leakage from the connection between the mixing chamber and the assembly frame.

[0046] Furthermore, the above description provides a detailed introduction to a water-cooled radiator provided by the embodiments of this utility model. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
