Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model application belongs to the technical field of automotive condenser inlet and outlet pressure plates, specifically relating to an automotive condenser and an automotive. Background Technology

[0002] With the booming development of my country's automobile industry, competition in the automotive parts industry is becoming increasingly fierce, and various parts are developing towards lightweight, efficient, and economical directions. The condenser, as an important piece of automotive equipment, is no exception. It is generally installed on the water tank, also known as the car radiator, with its inlet and outlet connected to rigid pipes inside the car's engine compartment.

[0003] The traditional method of condenser installation involves mounting the inlet and outlet pipes onto the condenser using pressure plates. These pressure plates are two separate pieces, each mounted on a different part of the condenser, often resulting in an irregular, non-standard shape after assembly. This assembly wastes interior space in the vehicle's engine compartment, hindering its efficient utilization. Furthermore, the overall trend in automotive component development is to maximize interior space utilization, which clearly contradicts this trend. Given the development requirements of customers (primarily OEMs), developing a condenser that guarantees performance while facilitating vehicle installation has become an urgent need and an inevitable trend in the industry.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a new type of automotive condenser that makes the inlet and outlet positions of the condenser more rational, in order to solve the problems in the vehicle assembly process. That is, while ensuring the normal performance of the condenser, when installing the inlet and outlet pipes of the condenser, the space occupied by the condenser in the car's engine compartment can be controlled to the maximum extent, avoiding unreasonable occupation and waste of interior space, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving space utilization, meeting customer needs for the product, and ultimately achieving the goal of improving economic efficiency.

[0005] This utility model application discloses an automotive condenser and an automotive vehicle, in order to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the first aspect of this utility model provides an automotive condenser, including a core, with a first manifold and a second manifold respectively installed on both sides and sealed in communication with the core, and further including: an intake chamber disposed in the first manifold for delivering refrigerant to be used into the core; a liquid outlet chamber disposed in the first manifold for collecting and concentrating the refrigerant used in the core; and an integrated guide block disposed on the side wall of the first manifold and sealed in communication with the intake chamber and the liquid outlet chamber respectively, for guiding the refrigerant to be used into the intake chamber and discharging the used refrigerant from the liquid outlet chamber.

[0007] Furthermore, the integrated guide block has an inlet air passage and an outlet liquid passage; the inlet port at one end of the inlet air passage is formed on the end face of the integrated guide block for introducing refrigerant; the outlet port at the other end of the inlet air passage is sealed and connected to the inlet chamber; the inlet port at one end of the outlet liquid passage is sealed and connected to the outlet chamber; the outlet port at the other end of the outlet liquid passage is formed on the end face of the integrated guide block for discharging refrigerant.

[0008] Furthermore, an outlet pipe is provided between the integrated guide block and the outlet chamber of the first manifold; the inlet of the outlet pipe is sealed and connected to the outlet chamber, and the outlet of the outlet pipe is sealed and connected to the inlet hole of the integrated guide block.

[0009] Furthermore, a tube drum is provided at the inlet of the liquid outlet tube.

[0010] Furthermore, the air inlet and liquid outlet are both made on the upper end face of the integrated guide block; the air outlet and liquid inlet are respectively made on other end faces of the integrated guide block that are perpendicular to the upper end face of the integrated guide block.

[0015] A second aspect of this disclosure provides an automobile, including the automobile condenser provided above.

[0016] The advantages and positive effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. The automotive condenser disclosed in this utility model application replaces the inlet and outlet pressure plates of traditional automotive condensers with an integrated guide block. This integrated guide block is sealed and connected to the first manifold on one side of the condenser core, used to introduce refrigerant into the condenser core. After use, the refrigerant first flows back from the condenser core to the first manifold, then flows through the first manifold to the integrated guide block, and finally the integrated guide block discharges the refrigerant. Unlike existing technologies, throughout the entire operation of the condenser, the introduction and discharge of refrigerant are completed through the first manifold and integrated guide block on one side of the core, eliminating the need for a separate manifold on the other side.

[0018] In this solution, the inlet and outlet positions of the automotive condenser are designed more rationally, solving problems encountered by customers during vehicle assembly. Specifically, while ensuring the normal performance of the condenser, the refrigerant is introduced and discharged on the same side of the condenser core, requiring only one integrated guide block. The refrigerant enters the condenser core through the integrated guide block, exits from the condenser core, and then finally exits through the integrated guide block. This design maximizes the space occupied by the condenser in the vehicle's engine compartment, avoiding unreasonable occupation and waste of interior space, thereby improving the utilization rate of interior space, fully meeting customer needs, and ultimately achieving improved economic efficiency. Furthermore, the structure is simple and has strong sealing performance.

[0040] The specific embodiments of this utility model application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of this disclosure.

[0041] In the technical solutions disclosed in this utility model application, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" generally refer to those defined based on the drawing direction of the corresponding figures, while "inner" and "outer" refer to those inside and outside relative to the outline of the component or structure itself. Furthermore, it should be noted that terms such as "first" and "second" are used to distinguish one element from another and do not have sequential or importance implications. Additionally, in the description with reference to the figures, the same reference numerals in different figures denote the same element.

[0042] According to the first aspect of this utility model application, an automotive condenser is disclosed, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes: a core 6, with a first manifold 3A and a second manifold 3B respectively installed on both sides and sealed in communication with the core 6; and also includes:

[0043] The air inlet chamber is located inside the first manifold 3A and is used to deliver the refrigerant to be used into the core 6.

[0044] The liquid outlet chamber is located inside the first manifold 3A and is used to collect and concentrate the refrigerant used in the core 6.

[0045] An integrated guide block 1 is disposed on the side wall of the first manifold 3A and is sealed and connected to the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber respectively. It is used to introduce the refrigerant to be used into the inlet chamber and to discharge the used refrigerant from the outlet chamber.

[0046] In the above technical solution, the integrated guide block 1 replaces the inlet and outlet pressure plates on the traditional automotive condenser, and is sealed and connected to the first manifold 3A on one side of the core 6. When the condenser is working, the refrigerant enters the inlet chamber of the first manifold 3A through the integrated guide block 1, and then flows back into the core 6. The used refrigerant first flows back from the core 6 to the outlet chamber of the first manifold 3A, and then flows through the integrated guide block 1 before being finally discharged. Unlike existing technologies, in the entire operation of the condenser, the introduction and discharge of refrigerant are completed through the first manifold 3A and the integrated guide block 1 on one side of the core 6, eliminating the need for the second manifold 3B on the other side of the core 6.

[0047] In this design, the refrigerant inlet and outlet positions of the automotive condenser are more rationally designed, solving problems encountered by customers during vehicle assembly. While ensuring the normal performance of the condenser, the refrigerant inlet and outlet both occur on the same side of the condenser core 6, requiring only one integrated guide block 1. The refrigerant enters the condenser core 6 through the integrated guide block 1, exits from the condenser core 6, and then finally exits through the integrated guide block 1. This design maximizes the space occupied by the condenser in the vehicle's engine compartment, avoiding the unreasonable use and waste of interior space caused by the irregular shape of existing condensers, thus improving space utilization and fully meeting customer needs, ultimately achieving the goal of improving economic efficiency. Furthermore, the structure is simple and has strong sealing performance.

[0048] It should be added here that, as Figure 7 As shown, at least one baffle 7 is provided inside the first manifold 3A, which divides the first manifold 3A into a completely isolated, complementary, and non-communicating inlet chamber and outlet chamber. In actual use of the condenser, although the designer may set multiple baffles 7 according to different needs and performance requirements, resulting in different condenser structures, regardless of the specific internal structure of the first manifold 3A, it must have an inlet chamber and an outlet chamber. This is existing technology and will not be elaborated further.

[0049] In this embodiment, such as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the integrated guide block 1 has an inlet air channel 101 and an outlet liquid channel 102.

[0050] An air inlet 101a at one end of the air inlet channel 101 is formed on the end face of the integrated guide block 1 for introducing refrigerant; an air outlet 101b at the other end of the air inlet channel 101 is sealed and connected to the air inlet chamber.

[0051] The liquid inlet 102a at one end of the liquid outlet channel 102 is sealed and connected to the liquid outlet chamber; the liquid outlet 102b at the other end of the liquid outlet channel 102 is made on the end face of the integrated guide block 1 and is used to discharge refrigerant.

[0052] Example (1)

[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, an outlet pipe 4 is provided between the integrated guide block 1 and the outlet chamber of the first manifold 3A; the inlet 401 of the outlet pipe 4 is sealed and connected to the outlet chamber, and the outlet of the outlet pipe 4 is sealed and connected to the inlet hole 102a of the integrated guide block 1.

[0054] An outlet pipe 4 is provided between the integrated guide block 1 and the outlet chamber of the first manifold 3A. This design enables the integrated guide block 1 to be applied to a wider variety of condensers with different structures and performance requirements.

[0055] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, a tube drum 401a is provided at the inlet 401 of the outlet pipe 4. This design makes it easy to install the outlet pipe 4 with the first manifold 3A and facilitates operation.

[0056] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 Both the air inlet 101a and the liquid outlet 102b are made on the upper end face of the integrated guide block 1;

[0057] The air outlet 101b and the liquid inlet 102a are respectively made on other end faces of the integrated guide block 1 that are perpendicular to the upper end face of the integrated guide block 1.

[0058] In this design, both the air inlet 101a and the liquid outlet 102b are located on the upper surface of the integrated guide block 1. During vehicle assembly, the corresponding pipes can be vertically inserted into the two holes. This design further optimizes the positions of the air inlet 101a and the liquid outlet 102b, making the condenser easier to assemble into the vehicle and fully utilize the engine compartment space. The air outlet 101b and the liquid inlet 102a are located on other end faces of the integrated guide block 1 that are perpendicular to the upper surface of the integrated guide block 1. This design further optimizes the positions of the air outlet 101b and the liquid inlet 102a, making their positions more reasonable, easier to assemble into the vehicle, and more efficient in utilizing the interior space.

[0059] Example (2)

[0060] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the upper surface of the integrated guide block 1 also has a mounting hole 103, which is located between the air inlet 101a and the liquid outlet 102b. This design makes the automotive condenser easier to assemble into the vehicle. Specifically, as shown... Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, dust caps 2 are also installed on both assembly holes 103.

[0061] In other implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, the integrated guide block 1 is provided with an arc-shaped connecting piece 104 that matches the first manifold 3A. The arc-shaped connecting piece 104 is used for fixed connection with the first manifold 3A. The arc surface structure of the arc-shaped connecting piece 104 is adapted to the shape of the first manifold 3A, which facilitates the connection and installation of the integrated guide block 1 and the first manifold 3A. Moreover, the connection method with more contact surfaces between the two makes the connection effect more solid.

[0062] Example (3)

[0063] In this embodiment, the air outlet 101b is formed on the arc-shaped connecting piece 104 and directly communicates with the air intake chamber. The air outlet 101b being formed on the arc-shaped connecting piece 104 and directly communicating with the air intake chamber means that the integrated guide block 1 is directly connected to the air intake chamber. This design makes it more material-efficient in manufacturing.

[0064] In some other embodiments, the integrated conductor 1 is made of G77 aluminum alloy or 6005 aluminum alloy.

[0065] The integrated conductor block 1 is made of aluminum alloy G77. Aluminum alloy G77 has high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance, wear resistance and good welding performance, which is suitable for the manufacture of integrated conductor block 1, giving it a long service life.

[0066] The integrated guide block 1 can also be made of aluminum alloy 6005. Aluminum alloy 6005 has excellent corrosion resistance, weldability and plasticity, and is suitable for manufacturing low-load parts that work in contact with liquid or gas environments.

[0067] Based on the above technical solutions, this disclosure also provides an automobile, including the aforementioned automobile condenser. Since the automobile provided by this disclosure possesses all the characteristics of the aforementioned automobile condenser, further details are omitted here to avoid repetition.

[0068] This utility model application exemplarily describes the installation and use of this automotive condenser, as follows:

[0069] Installation: [Material], the liquid outlet pipe 4 is made of 3003 rust-proof aluminum, and the integrated guide block is made of G77 aluminum alloy. After installation with the core 6 of the automotive condenser, they are placed in a brazing furnace and welded as a single unit.

[0070] Usage: When the condenser is working, the air conditioner compressor compresses the low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The refrigerant then enters the inlet chamber of the first manifold 3A through the integrated guide block 1, and then flows from the inlet chamber into the core 6. After use, the refrigerant will turn into a liquid. It first flows back from the core 6 to the liquid outlet chamber of the first manifold 3A, and then flows out from the liquid outlet chamber and is finally discharged through the integrated guide block 1.

[0071] The preferred embodiments of this utility model application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the disclosed technical concept, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of this utility model application, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of this application.
