Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive radiator technology, specifically to an easy-to-clean automotive radiator. Background Technology
[0002] As a heat transfer and conduction component inside a car, the car radiator plays an important role. The main materials of the car radiator are aluminum or copper, and the radiator core is its main component, which contains coolant. In layman's terms, the car radiator is a heat exchanger. During the car's operation, debris such as leaves and fluff can easily accumulate on the radiator fins.
[0003] Existing patent CN220101383U discloses an easy-to-clean car radiator, including a radiator core and water chamber shells disposed on both sides of the radiator core. Two sets of connecting plates are symmetrically fixed to one side of each set of water chamber shells. A support frame is hinged to the lower part of each connecting plate. A cleaning assembly is disposed between the two sets of water chamber shells, with two sets symmetrically arranged. Both sets of cleaning assemblies are fitted against both sides of the radiator core. By using the cleaning assemblies fitted against both sides of the radiator core to pre-scrape away leaves, fluff, and other debris adhering to the surface of the radiator fins before rinsing, the cleaning effect is improved. The support frame hinged to the lower part of the connecting plate facilitates the support and drying of the cleaned radiator core, unlike existing radiators which are mostly placed directly or leaned against a wall for drying. This method is less prone to dropping and deformation. The support frame is easy to pull out for support during the drying process and is also easy to store after use.
[0004] Based on the search of the aforementioned patents and in conjunction with existing automotive radiators, it was found that although the aforementioned automotive radiators can clean the radiator during use, their cleaning methods are relatively simple, resulting in poor cleaning effect. After cleaning, lint and other dirt are directly discharged without collecting and treating the impurities, thus reducing their practicality. Utility Model Content

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.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5This utility model provides a technical solution: an easy-to-clean car radiator, including a base 1 and a radiator body 11. A fixing frame 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A collection component is provided on the top of the base 1. A connecting component is provided between the radiator body 11 and the base 1. The collection component includes a collection box 21 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, an inlet 22 opened on the top of the collection box 21, a filter plate 23 connected to the inlet 22, a fan 24 fixedly connected to one side of the top of the collection box 21, a suction pipe 25 fixedly connected to one side of the fan 24, a flexible hose 26 connected to one side of the top of the collection box 21, and a hose... The system consists of a fixed collection pipe 26, a collection port 27 evenly arranged on one side of the collection pipe 27, a movable ring 29 fixedly connected to both sides of the collection pipe 27, and a cylinder 30 fixedly connected to the top of the movable ring 29. The cylinder 30 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 12. The cylinder 30 can push the movable ring 29 to move vertically, which in turn can drive the collection pipe 27 to move vertically. When the fan 24 is started, it can generate suction. As the collection pipe 27 moves vertically, it can suck the lint and other debris on the radiator body 11 into the collection box 21. The lint is then filtered by the filter plate 23 to prevent it from entering the fan 24. To collect and clean lint, a connecting rod 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the collection pipe 27, and a brush 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 41. The brush 42 contacts the radiator body 11. Moving the collection pipe 27 can move the connecting rod 41, which in turn moves the brush 42. The brush 42 can clean the radiator body 11 and remove stubborn impurities. Guide grooves 51 are provided on both sides of the fixing frame 12, and guide blocks 52 are fixedly connected to both sides of the collection pipe 27. The guide blocks 52 are slidably connected to the guide grooves 51, and the collection pipe 27 can move the guide blocks 52. The guide block 52 guides the collection tube 27, preventing it from tilting when moving vertically. The bottom of the collection box 21 has an adsorption groove 61. The bottom of the filter plate 23 is fixedly connected to a first magnet 62, and the bottom of the adsorption groove 61 is fixedly connected to a second magnet 63. The first magnet 62 and the second magnet 63 can attract each other, thereby fixing the filter plate 23 and preventing it from moving vertically. The top of the filter plate 23 is fixedly connected to a handle 81. The handle 81 is T-shaped and can be used to move the filter plate 23 vertically, making it easy to replace the filter plate 23.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 8The connecting components include slide grooves 31 respectively opened on both sides of the top of the base 1, a slider 32 connected to the slide grooves 31, a bidirectional screw 33 connected to the slider 32, a movable plate 34 fixedly connected to the top of the slider 32, a fixed rod 35 fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 34, fixed slots 36 respectively opened on both sides of the radiator body 11, and knobs 37 fixedly connected to both ends of the bidirectional screw 33. The fixed rod 35 is inserted into the fixed slot 36, the bidirectional screw 33 is screwed to the slider 32, and the bidirectional screw 33 is rotatably connected to the base 1. By rotating the knob 37, the bidirectional screw 33 can be driven to rotate, thereby driving the radiator body 1. The two sliders 32 and the movable plate 34 move to fix the heat sink body 11. At the same time, the fixing rod 35 can be inserted into the fixing slot 36, which can improve the fixing stability of the heat sink body 11, prevent the heat sink body 11 from shifting, and allow for quick disassembly and assembly of the heat sink body 11 for easy replacement and maintenance. The top two sides of the base 1 are fixedly connected with plugs 71, and the bottom two sides of the heat sink body 11 are respectively provided with slots 72. The plugs 71 are inserted into the slots 72, which can limit the horizontal movement of the heat sink body 11 and prevent it from moving horizontally.
[0029] Working principle: During operation, the radiator body 11 is placed on top of the base 1, the insert block 71 is inserted into the slot 72, and then the knob 37 is rotated. The rotation of the knob 37 drives the double-sided screw 33 to rotate, which in turn drives the two sliders 32 to move. The movement of the sliders 32 drives the moving plate 34 to move, thus fixing the radiator body 11. At the same time, the fixing rod 35 is inserted into the fixing groove 36, which can improve the fixing effect of the radiator body 11. When it is necessary to clean the radiator body 11, the cylinder 30 and the fan 24 are started. The operation of the cylinder 30 pushes the collection pipe 27 downward, which in turn drives the brush 42 downward. The downward movement of the brush 42 can clean the radiator body 11. The cleaning process involves the fan 24 generating suction to draw lint and other impurities from the radiator body 11 into the collection pipe 27 through the collection port 28, and then into the collection box 21. The impurities are filtered by the filter plate 23 within the collection box 21, preventing them from entering the fan 24 and protecting it. The cylinder 30 resetting resets the collection pipe 27 and the brush 42, allowing for repeated cleaning of the radiator body 11. When the filter plate 23 needs cleaning, it can be pulled out using the handle 81. This is the entire working process of the device. Any content not described in detail in this specification is considered prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
