Description

A heat dissipation and airflow guiding device for millimeter-wave radar in an emergency obstacle avoidance system Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive obstacle avoidance radar technology, and in particular to a heat dissipation and airflow guiding device for millimeter-wave radar in an emergency obstacle avoidance system. Background Technology

[0002] In modern intelligent transportation systems, millimeter-wave radar plays a crucial role in emergency obstacle avoidance systems. It monitors the vehicle's surroundings in real time, providing reliable obstacle detection information for safe driving. However, millimeter-wave radar generates heat during operation, and if not dissipated promptly, the temperature of its internal components will rise. Current heat dissipation methods for millimeter-wave radar are inefficient and fail to meet the cooling requirements of emergency obstacle avoidance systems. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a simple, efficient heat dissipation device for millimeter-wave radar. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention provides a heat dissipation and diversion device for millimeter-wave radar in an emergency obstacle avoidance system, which solves the problem that the heat dissipation efficiency of existing millimeter-wave radar heat dissipation methods is not high and cannot meet the heat dissipation requirements of emergency obstacle avoidance systems for millimeter-wave radar.

[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is achieved by the following technical solution:

[0005] A heat dissipation and airflow guiding device for a millimeter-wave radar in an emergency obstacle avoidance system, comprising:

[0006] The main body of the millimeter-wave radar has an air inlet and an air outlet on its outer shell.

[0007] The heat dissipation guide is installed at the air inlet of the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body. When the vehicle is moving, the airflow enters the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body through the air inlet via the heat dissipation guide and flows out through the air outlet for heat dissipation.

[0008] In one specific implementation, the heat dissipation guide portion includes a right-angle guide shell and a first mesh cover mounted on the right-angle guide shell.

[0009] In one specific implementation, the right-angle air guide shell includes a right-angle duct and mounting plates disposed on both sides of the upper end of the right-angle duct. The lower end of the right-angle duct is provided with an air inlet, and the mounting plates are provided with bolts for connection to the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body.

[0010] In one specific implementation, the width of the air inlet hood is greater than the width of the right-angle duct.

[0011] In one specific implementation, the first mesh cover is detachably connected to the opening end of the air inlet hood by screws.

[0012] In one specific implementation, the air inlet is located at the lower end of the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body, and the air outlet is located at the upper end of the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body.

[0013] In one specific implementation, a second mesh cover is detachably installed at the air outlet.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. Utilizing the airflow generated by a moving vehicle, the airflow is introduced into the millimeter-wave radar body through the air intake via a heat dissipation guide, and then flows out through the air outlet, forming effective air convection. Compared with the traditional heat dissipation method of setting heat dissipation fins on the outer shell, this greatly improves heat dissipation efficiency and can quickly and effectively reduce the internal temperature of the millimeter-wave radar body.

[0016] 2. The right-angle airflow guide shell of the heat dissipation guide section is connected to the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body through bolts on the mounting plate. The structure is simple and easy to install and disassemble. At the same time, the first mesh cover and the second mesh cover are detachably connected to the air inlet and air outlet respectively through screws, which can prevent foreign objects from entering the interior of the millimeter-wave radar body.

[0030] Referring to Figures 1-4, this utility model provides a heat dissipation and airflow guiding device for a millimeter-wave radar in an emergency obstacle avoidance system, comprising:

[0031] The millimeter-wave radar body 100 has an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102 on its outer shell.

[0032] The heat dissipation guide 200 is installed at the air inlet 101 of the housing of the millimeter-wave radar body 100. When the vehicle is in motion, the airflow passes through the heat dissipation guide 200 and enters the housing of the millimeter-wave radar body 100 from the air inlet 101, and flows out from the air outlet 102 for heat dissipation.

[0033] Utilizing the airflow generated by the vehicle's movement, the airflow is introduced into the millimeter-wave radar body 100 from the air inlet 101 via the heat dissipation guide section 200, and then flows out from the air outlet 102, forming effective air convection. Compared with the traditional heat dissipation method of setting heat dissipation fins on the outer shell, this greatly improves the heat dissipation efficiency and can quickly and effectively reduce the internal temperature of the millimeter-wave radar body.

[0034] As a further preferred embodiment of the above-described embodiment, the heat dissipation guide portion 200 includes a right-angle guide shell 210 and a first mesh cover 220 mounted on the right-angle guide shell 210.

[0035] The right-angle air guide shell 210 includes a right-angle air duct 211 and mounting plates 212 disposed on both sides of the upper end of the right-angle air duct 211. An air inlet 213 is provided at the lower end of the right-angle air duct 211. Bolts 214 are provided on the mounting plate 212 for connecting to the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body 100.

[0036] Furthermore, the width of the air inlet 213 is greater than the width of the right-angle duct 211. This design, where the air inlet width is greater than the right-angle duct width, allows for better collection and guidance of airflow during vehicle movement.

[0037] Furthermore, the first mesh cover 220 is detachably connected to the opening end of the air inlet hood 213 by screws.

[0038] As a further preferred embodiment of the above implementation, the air inlet 101 is located at the lower end of the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body 100, and the air outlet 102 is located at the upper end of the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body 100.

[0039] The air inlet is located at the bottom of the housing, and the air outlet is located at the top of the housing. Combining the principle of hot air rising, this greatly improves heat dissipation efficiency and can quickly and effectively reduce the internal temperature of the millimeter-wave radar body.

[0040] As a further preferred embodiment of the above implementation, a second mesh cover 300 is detachably installed at the air outlet 102.

[0041] Working principle: When the vehicle is moving, the outside air, under the influence of the airflow generated by the vehicle's movement, first passes through the air intake. Because the width of the air intake is greater than the width of the right-angle duct, it can more effectively collect airflow and guide it into the right-angle duct. The airflow enters the outer shell of the millimeter-wave radar body through the air intake via the right-angle duct, absorbing the heat generated by the radar during its flow inside the radar body. As the hot air rises, the air carrying the heat is discharged from the air outlet located at the top of the millimeter-wave radar body shell, forming air convection, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the millimeter-wave radar body.

[0042] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
