Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of radiator technology, specifically relating to a serpentine cooling tube radiator core. Background Technology
[0002] The main function of a radiator is to dissipate the heat generated in a device or system to the surrounding environment in order to keep the device or system operating within its normal operating temperature range. It is widely used in various fields, such as automobiles, computers, and industrial equipment.
[0003] The serpentine cooling tube radiator is a type of radiator, named for its serpentine cooling tubes. This shape increases the length and surface area of the cooling tubes, allowing the coolant to exchange heat with the outside environment more effectively as it flows through the tubes. However, in some serpentine cooling tube radiators, during the flow of the coolant throughout the cooling system, impurities such as metal shavings and dust may be mixed in. These impurities will flow with the coolant through the serpentine cooling tubes, accelerating the wear of the inner wall of the tubes. This affects the performance and lifespan of the serpentine cooling tubes, causing inconvenience to the use of the radiator core.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a serpentine cooling pipe radiator core to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a serpentine cooling tube radiator core, which aims to solve the problem that in the existing serpentine cooling tube radiators, when the coolant is in use, some impurities such as metal fragments and dust may be mixed in with the coolant during the flow of the entire heat dissipation system. These impurities will flow with the coolant in the serpentine cooling tube, causing the impurities to accelerate the wear of the inner wall of the serpentine cooling tube, thereby affecting the performance and service life of the serpentine cooling tube.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a serpentine cooling pipe radiator core, comprising a serpentine cooling pipe, with a frame connecting both ends of the serpentine cooling pipe, and a heat dissipation fin connected by one end of the serpentine cooling pipe between the two frames. One end of the serpentine cooling pipe passes through the frame and connects to one side surface of a protrusion, and an inlet pipe is connected to the other side surface of the protrusion. The other end of the serpentine cooling pipe passes through the frame and connects to an outlet pipe. A connecting plate is connected to the side surface of the protrusion facing the frame, and the other side surface of the connecting plate is connected to the frame. An installation groove is formed on the top surface of the protrusion, and a box is slidably placed inside the installation groove. A filter basket is connected to the inner surface of the box, and a transparent observation window is embedded on the top surface of the box. A guide block is connected to the inner surface of the protrusion at one end of the outlet pipe.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the serpentine cooling tube radiator core of this utility model, a butterfly bolt is connected through the top of the protrusion, and a fixing hole is threaded to the other end of the butterfly bolt. The fixing hole is opened on both ends of the top of the box body.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the serpentine cooling tube radiator core of this utility model, a sealing ring is connected around the outer surface of the box at the bottom of the fixing hole, and the other end of the sealing ring is engaged in the sealing groove, which is located on the inner surface at the top of the mounting groove.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the serpentine cooling pipe radiator core of this utility model, both ends of the filter basket are connected to positioning blocks, one end of the positioning block extends into the positioning groove, and the positioning groove is symmetrically opened on one side surface of the box body.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the serpentine cooling pipe radiator core of this utility model, a symmetrical groove is provided on one side surface of the positioning block, and one end of a bolt is connected to the inner surface of the groove. The other end of the bolt passes through the positioning block and forms a threaded connection with the box body.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the serpentine cooling tube radiator core of this utility model, a rubber cover is fitted onto the inner surface of one end of the groove, and one side surface of the rubber cover is in contact with the bolt.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This invention utilizes the cooperation of a protrusion, a connecting plate, a housing, a filter basket, and a flow guide block. When coolant enters the serpentine cooling pipe, it needs to flow through the inside of the protrusion. The filter basket inside the housing installed on the protrusion filters the flowing coolant, preventing impurities in the coolant from being filtered out and entering the serpentine cooling pipe. This avoids impurities accelerating the wear of the inner wall of the serpentine cooling pipe, thus ensuring the service life of the serpentine cooling pipe in the radiator core.
[0014] This utility model uses a positioning block, groove, bolt and rubber cover to cooperate with each other. By prying open the rubber cover with a tool and then turning the bolt, one end of the bolt is separated from the box. At this time, the positioning block can be separated from the positioning groove, so that the filter basket can be removed separately for maintenance and replacement. This prevents the operator from having to replace the entire box when the filter basket is damaged, thus saving the maintenance cost of the radiator core. Attached Figure Description

[0021] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a serpentine cooling pipe radiator core, including a serpentine cooling pipe 1, with a frame 2 connected through both ends of the serpentine cooling pipe 1, and a heat dissipation fin 3 connected through one end of the serpentine cooling pipe 1 between the two frames 2. One end of the serpentine cooling pipe 1 passes through the frame 2 and is connected to one side surface of a protrusion 4. The other side surface of the protrusion 4 is connected to an inlet pipe 5. The other end of the serpentine cooling pipe 1 passes through the frame 2 and is connected to an outlet pipe 6. A connecting plate 7 is connected to one side surface of the protrusion 4 facing the frame 2, and the other side surface of the connecting plate 7 is connected to the frame 2. An installation groove 8 is opened on the top surface of the protrusion 4, and a box 9 is slidably placed inside the installation groove 8. A filter basket 10 is connected to the inner surface of the box 9, and a transparent observation window 15 is embedded on the top surface of the box 9. A guide block 21 is connected to the inner surface of the protrusion 4 at one end of the outlet pipe 6.
[0023] The collection status inside the filter basket 10 in the housing 9 can be observed through the transparent observation window 15, which makes it convenient for operators to determine whether the filter basket 10 in the housing 9 needs maintenance.
[0024] Preferably, a butterfly bolt 11 is connected through the top of the protrusion 4, and the other end of the butterfly bolt 11 is threaded with a fixing hole 12, which is opened on both ends of the top of the box body 9.
[0025] In practical use, slide the box 9 into the mounting groove 8 on the protrusion 4, and then use the butterfly bolt 11 to pass through the protrusion 4 and screw it into the fixing hole 12 on the box 9. This will fix the position of the box 9 in the mounting groove 8 on the protrusion 4. By unscrewing the butterfly bolt 11, the box 9 can be slid out of the mounting groove 8.
[0026] Preferably, a sealing ring 13 is connected around the outer surface of the box 9 at the bottom of the fixing hole 12, and the other end of the sealing ring 13 is engaged in the interior of the sealing groove 14, which is located on the inner surface at the top of the mounting groove 8.
[0027] In actual use, when the box 9 is slid into the mounting groove 8 on the protrusion 4, the sealing ring 13 on the box 9 will also move to the sealing groove 14, so that the sealing ring 13 is elastically engaged in the sealing groove 14, thereby increasing the sealing between the box 9 and the protrusion 4 and preventing the coolant from leaking out from the mounting groove 8.
[0028] Preferably, both ends of the filter basket 10 are connected to positioning blocks 16, one end of the positioning block 16 extends into the positioning groove 17, and the positioning groove 17 is symmetrically opened on one side surface of the box body 9.
[0029] In practical use, the positioning block 16 on the filter basket 10 can slide in the positioning groove 17 in the box 9, allowing the filter basket 10 to be placed or separated in the box 9. The filter basket 10 can be customized to the required shape and size for use.
[0030] Preferably, a symmetrical groove 18 is provided on one side surface of the positioning block 16, and one end of a bolt 19 is connected to the inner surface of the groove 18. The other end of the bolt 19 passes through the positioning block 16 and forms a threaded connection with the box body 9.
[0031] In practical use, when the positioning block 16 is slidably placed into the positioning groove 17, the bolt 19 is placed into the groove 18, and then the bolt 19 is screwed through the positioning block 16 into the box body 9. At this time, the position of the positioning block 16 will be fixed in the positioning groove 17, so that the filter basket 10 is fixed on the box body 9 by the positioning block 16. When the bolt 19 is unscrewed, the positioning block 16 can be slid out of the positioning groove 17, so that the filter basket 10 can be removed from the box body 9, allowing the operator to maintain and replace the filter basket 10.
[0032] Preferably, a rubber cover 20 is engaged with the inner surface of one end of the groove 18, and one side surface of the rubber cover 20 is in contact with the bolt 19.
[0033] In practical use, the rubber cover 20 is inserted into the groove 18 and contacts one end of the bolt 19. At this time, the rubber cover 20 will be elastically engaged in the groove 18, thereby shielding and protecting the bolt 19 and reducing the contact between the head of the bolt 19 and the coolant. By prying the rubber cover 20 with a tool, the rubber cover 20 can be separated from the groove 18, exposing the bolt 19 in the groove 18, so that the operator can operate the bolt 19 normally.
[0034] Working principle: When using this serpentine cooling pipe radiator core, install the frame 2 at the designated position inside the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and then connect the inlet pipe 5 and outlet pipe 6 to their respective pipes. When the high-temperature coolant in the outdoor unit enters the inlet pipe 5, it passes through the protrusion 4 and then enters the serpentine cooling pipe 1. As the high-temperature coolant flows inside the serpentine cooling pipe 1, the heat in the coolant is conducted to the heat dissipation fins 3. When the outside air flows, it exchanges heat with the heat dissipation fins 3, carrying away the heat and thus lowering the temperature of the coolant in the serpentine cooling pipe 1. The cooled coolant is then delivered from the outlet pipe 6 connected to the other end of the serpentine cooling pipe 1 for use. While the coolant flows through the protrusion 4, the coolant output from the inlet pipe 5 enters the guide block 21, which then guides the coolant to the filter basket 10 in the housing 9, allowing the coolant to circulate within the filter basket 10. At this point, the filter basket 10... Impurities in the circulating coolant are filtered out, allowing the filtered coolant to re-enter the serpentine cooling tube 1. This prevents impurities from entering the serpentine cooling tube 1 along with the coolant, avoiding accelerated wear on the inner wall of the serpentine cooling tube 1, thus ensuring the service life of the serpentine cooling tube 1 in the radiator core and improving the reliability and stability of the radiator core. Secondly, when the filter basket 10 in the housing 9 is damaged, first loosen the butterfly bolt 11 to separate one end of the butterfly bolt 11 from the fixing hole 12 on the housing 9, then pull the housing 9 to remove it from the mounting groove 8 on the protrusion 4. At this time, use a tool to pry open the rubber cover 20 in the groove 18, then loosen the bolt 19 in the groove 18 to separate one end of the bolt 19 from the housing 9. At this time, the positioning block 16 can be separated from the positioning groove 17, allowing the filter basket 10 to be removed separately for maintenance and replacement. This prevents the operator from having to replace the entire housing 9 when the filter basket 10 is damaged, thus saving the maintenance cost of the radiator core.
[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
