Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling equipment technology, and in particular to a liquid cooling plate with a dispersed reinforcing rib structure. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, liquid cooling plate production structures mainly fall into two categories: profile and stamping-brazed structures. Profile structures have relatively simple flow channels, while stamping-brazed structures allow for the determination of flow channel structure based on product performance, operating conditions, and simulation analysis. However, after brazing, uneven contact at the weld surface and uneven distribution of brazing filler metal can result in a low weld ratio, affecting overall sealing, structural strength, and reducing product lifespan. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a liquid cooling plate with a simple structure, good flatness, and high weld ratio. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a liquid cooling plate with a dispersed reinforcing rib structure to solve the current technical problems.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0005] This utility model provides a liquid cooling plate with a dispersed reinforcing rib structure, including: an upper cover plate and a lower cover plate. The upper cover plate is provided with a first reinforcing rib and a second reinforcing rib, and the lower cover plate is provided with a third reinforcing rib. The third reinforcing rib includes a plurality of third reinforcing ribs, which are dispersedly arranged on the lower cover plate.
[0006] Preferably, the first reinforcing rib is located at the middle position of the upper cover plate, and the first reinforcing rib is fixed to the upper cover plate by a rivet screw.
[0007] Preferably, the second reinforcing rib is disposed on both sides of the upper cover plate, the cross-sectional area of the second reinforcing rib is smaller than that of the first reinforcing rib, and the second reinforcing rib is connected to the upper cover plate by bolts.
[0008] Preferably, the lower cover plate is a curved panel formed by stamping, and the curved panel has several grooves stamped on it, the grooves being the third reinforcing ribs.
[0009] Preferably, the upper cover plate is provided with a first through hole and a second through hole, the first through hole is connected to an inlet pipe connector, and the second through hole is provided with a drain pipe connector.
[0010] Preferably, the lower cover plate is stamped with a flow channel for coolant flow, the flow channel being connected between the first through hole and the second through hole.
[0011] Preferably, the upper cover plate and the lower cover plate are fastened together and connected by screws.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The liquid cooling plate, with its rationally arranged multiple reinforcing ribs on the original flow channel cover, effectively enhances the structural strength of the cover plate, further improving the structural strength and stability of the product assembly. The dispersed reinforcing ribs, while ensuring strength, effectively eliminate or reduce internal stress generated during cover plate processing, making the cover plate flatter and facilitating assembly and welding. The concave reinforcing ribs reduce the amortization of solder per unit area on the lower cover plate, resulting in fuller solder filling of the planar contact surface. The welding at the concave circumference where it fits against the cover plate is fuller, significantly improving the welding rate and ensuring the product's sealing performance, structural stability, and service life. Furthermore, it effectively reduces the investment in leveling molds, improving production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.
[0021] This utility model provides a liquid cooling plate with a dispersed reinforcing rib structure, comprising: an upper cover plate 1 and a lower cover plate 9. The upper cover plate 1 is provided with a first reinforcing rib 4 and a second reinforcing rib 2, and the lower cover plate 9 is provided with a third reinforcing rib 7, comprising multiple third reinforcing ribs 7, which are dispersedly disposed on the lower cover plate 9. The upper cover plate 1 is a metal plate, and the lower cover plate 9 is a stamped metal sheet. The first reinforcing rib 4 and the second reinforcing rib 2 are both metal rods.
[0022] The first reinforcing rib 4 is located in the middle of the upper cover plate 1 and is fixed to the upper cover plate 1 by a rivet screw 5.
[0023] The second reinforcing rib 2 is provided on both sides of the upper cover plate 1. The cross-sectional area of the second reinforcing rib 2 is smaller than that of the first reinforcing rib 4. The second reinforcing rib 2 is connected to the upper cover plate 1 by bolts 6.
[0024] The lower cover plate 9 is a curved panel formed by stamping, and several grooves are stamped on the curved panel. The grooves are the third reinforcing ribs 7.
[0025] The upper cover plate 1 is provided with a first through hole and a second through hole. The first through hole is connected to an inlet pipe connector 3, and the second through hole is provided with a drain pipe connector. Both the inlet pipe connector 3 and the drain pipe connector are metal pipes.
[0026] The lower cover plate 9 has a flow channel 8 for coolant flow formed by stamping, and the flow channel 8 is connected between the first through hole and the second through hole.
[0027] The upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 9 are fastened together and connected by screws.
[0028] The liquid cooling plate features a variety of reinforcing ribs strategically placed on the original flow channel 8 cover plate, effectively enhancing the cover plate's structural strength and further improving the overall structural strength and stability of the product assembly. These dispersed reinforcing ribs, while ensuring strength, effectively eliminate or reduce internal stress generated during cover plate processing, resulting in a smoother cover plate and facilitating assembly and welding. The concave reinforcing ribs reduce the amortization of solder per unit area on the lower cover plate 9, allowing for fuller solder filling of the planar contact surface. The weld at the concave circumference where it meets the cover plate is fuller, significantly improving the weld ratio and ensuring the product's sealing performance, structural stability, and service life. Furthermore, it effectively reduces the investment in leveling molds, improving production efficiency.
