Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fan technology, and in particular to a cooling fan. Background Technology

[0002] Conventional fans generate airflow by rotating blades, which then comes into contact with the human body to remove some heat. However, this method provides limited cooling and cannot quickly lower the skin's temperature. Therefore, cooling fans have emerged. These fans have cooling fins on their exhaust casing, with heat sinks connected to the hot side of the cooling fins. The fan blades blow the heat absorbed by the heat sinks through the air outlet between the slats of the exhaust casing, allowing the cold side of the cooling fins to cool rapidly. This allows the cold side of the cooling fins to adhere to the skin, providing quick cooling for the user.

[0003] The drawback of the existing technology is that, in order to increase the heat dissipation area of ​​the heat sink, the heat sink in the existing technology usually has fins extending towards the position between the fan blades and the air outlet. However, since the fins are located in the air outlet path of the fan blades, the fins will disturb the air outlet of the fan blades, thereby reducing the air outlet efficiency, resulting in limited heat dissipation effect and affecting the cooling effect. Utility Model Content

[0007] Optionally, the mounting part is provided with a mounting post, and the main body is provided with a mounting hole, and the mounting post is inserted into the mounting hole.

[0008] Optionally, the mounting part is provided with a mounting groove, a first opening on the side of the mounting groove facing the main body, and a second opening on the side facing away from the main body. The cooling chip is installed in the mounting groove, the heat dissipation surface is attached to the main body through the first opening, and the cooling surface is exposed outside the mounting part through the second opening.

[0009] Optionally, the mounting portion has a boss protruding from the grille on the side opposite to the heat dissipation surface, the second port is located on the boss, and the cooling surface is exposed outside the boss.

[0010] Optionally, the cooling fan further includes a cooling cover, which is disposed on the protrusion and fits against the cooling surface.

[0011] Optionally, the mounting part is provided with a first wire guide bar communicating with the mounting cavity. The first wire guide bar is used to pass through a first wire so as to connect the cooling chip and the control circuit board.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the cooling fan provided by this utility model embodiment are as follows: The cooling fan includes a housing, a fan assembly, a cooling plate, and a heat sink. The housing includes a front shell and a rear shell arranged opposite to each other. One end of the front shell is provided with a mounting part and a plurality of gratings spaced around the mounting part. An air outlet is formed between two adjacent gratings.

[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] This utility model embodiment provides a cooling fan 100, such as Figures 1 to 6As shown, the cooling fan 100 includes a housing 1, a fan assembly 2, a cooling plate 3, and a heat sink 4. The housing 1 includes a front housing 11 and a rear housing 12 arranged opposite to each other. One end of the front housing 11 is provided with a mounting part 111 and a plurality of gratings 112 spaced around the mounting part 111. An air outlet 113 is formed between two adjacent gratings 112. The end of the grating 112 that connects to the mounting part 111 is recessed into the rear housing 12 with a receiving groove 1121. The fan assembly 2 is located on the side of the rear housing 12 facing the mounting part 111 and is used to blow air towards the air outlet 113. The cooling plate 3 is located in the mounting part 111 and includes a heat dissipation surface 31 facing the fan assembly 2 and a cooling surface 32 facing away from the fan assembly 2. The heat sink 4 includes a main body 41 and a plurality of fins 42 spaced around the main body 41. The main body 41 is located on the side of the mounting part 111 facing the fan assembly 2 to absorb the heat from the heat dissipation surface 31. The plurality of fins 42 are respectively received in the receiving grooves 1121 of the plurality of gratings 112.

[0027] Specifically, one end of the front shell 11 is provided with a mounting portion 111 and a plurality of gratings 112 spaced around the mounting portion 111. An air outlet 113 is formed between two adjacent gratings 112. The fan assembly 2 is located on the side of the rear shell 12 facing the mounting portion 111 and is used to blow air towards the air outlet 113. The cooling plate 3 is located inside the mounting portion 111. The cooling plate 3 includes a heat dissipation surface 31 facing the fan assembly 2 and a cooling surface 32 facing away from the fan assembly 2. The heat dissipation plate 4 includes a main body portion 41 and a plurality of fins 42 spaced around the main body portion 41. The main body portion 41 is located on the side of the mounting portion 111 facing the fan assembly 2 so that the main body portion 41 can absorb the heat generated by the heat dissipation surface 31 of the cooling plate 3 and conduct it to the fins 42. Thus, the heat on the fins 42 is blown out from the air outlet 113 by the air blown out by the fan assembly 2, ensuring the cooling effect of the cooling surface 32 of the cooling plate 3. Therefore, when using the cooling fan 100, the user can directly attach the mounting part 111 to the skin and use the cooling surface 32 to achieve a cooling effect, allowing the user to cool down quickly.

[0028] Furthermore, since the end of the grille 112 that connects to the mounting part 111 is recessed into the rear shell 12 with a receiving groove 1121, and several fins 42 are respectively received in the receiving grooves 1121 of several grilles 112, the fins 42 can be fitted and embedded in the grille 112 and flush with each edge of the grille 112, thereby preventing the air blown out by the fan assembly 2 from flowing between the fins 42 and the grille 112. This can improve the air outlet efficiency and enhance the heat dissipation effect of the fan assembly 2 on the fins 42, so that the cooling surface 32 can maintain a lower cooling temperature and improve the cooling effect. On the other hand, it can prevent the air blown out by the fan assembly 2 from colliding and rubbing between the fins 42 and the grille 112, thereby effectively reducing the noise generated by the cooling fan 100.

[0029] It is worth mentioning that, such as Figure 6 As shown, the rear shell 12 is provided with a rear shell mounting part and a rear shell grille corresponding to the mounting part 111 and grille 112 of the front shell 11, so that an air inlet corresponding to the air outlet 113 can be formed between two adjacent rear shell grilles. The fan assembly 2 includes a drive motor 21 and a fan wheel 22. The drive motor 21 is mounted on the rear shell mounting part, and the fan wheel 22 is mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor 21, so that when the drive motor 21 drives the fan wheel 22 to rotate, it can draw in outside air from the air inlet and blow it out toward the air outlet 113, thereby effectively dissipating heat from the heat sink 4.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the receiving groove 1121 is an L-shaped through groove. The bottom of the receiving groove 1121 is flush with the mounting part 111. An abutment wall 1121a is formed at the end of the receiving groove 1121 away from the mounting part 111, and the abutment wall 1121a abuts against the fin 42.

[0031] Specifically, the receiving groove 1121 is an L-shaped through groove. The bottom of the receiving groove 1121 is flush with the mounting part 111. An abutment wall 1121a is formed at the end of the receiving groove 1121 away from the mounting part 111. The abutment wall 1121a abuts against the fin 42. Thus, after the main body 41 of the heat sink 4 is installed on the mounting part 111, the bottom wall of the fin 42 can fit tightly against the bottom of the receiving groove 1121. The end of the fin 42 away from the main body 41 can abut against the abutment wall 1121a, so that the fin 42 can be stably received in the receiving groove 1121 and flush with each edge of the grid 112. At the same time, it ensures that the side walls and top wall of the fin 42 can be exposed so that when the fan assembly 2 blows air towards the air outlet 113, the heat on the fin 42 can be carried out, ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the fin 42.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the mounting part 111 is provided with a mounting post 1111, and the main body part 41 is provided with a mounting hole 411, and the mounting post 1111 is inserted into the mounting hole 411.

[0033] Specifically, the mounting part 111 is provided with a mounting post 1111, and the main body 41 is provided with a corresponding mounting hole 411. The mounting post 1111 is inserted into the mounting hole 411 so that the mounting part 111 can be stably mounted on the mounting part 111, while the fin 42 is stably accommodated in the receiving groove 1121.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figures 3 to 6As shown, the mounting part 111 is provided with a mounting groove 1112. The mounting groove 1112 has a first opening 1112a on the side facing the main body part 41 and a second opening 1112b on the side facing away from the main body part 41. The cooling chip 3 is installed in the mounting groove 1112. The heat dissipation surface 31 is attached to the main body part 41 through the first opening 1112a, and the cooling surface 32 is exposed outside the mounting part 111 through the second opening 1112b.

[0035] Specifically, the mounting part 111 is provided with a mounting groove 1112 so that the cooling chip 3 can be installed in the mounting groove 1112. The mounting groove 1112 has a first opening 1112a on the side facing the main body 41 and a second opening 1112b on the side facing away from the main body 41. Thus, the heat dissipation surface 31 of the cooling chip 3 can be exposed outside the mounting part 111 through the first opening 1112a so as to directly fit with the main body 41 of the heat sink 4, thereby improving the heat absorption efficiency of the main body 41 on the heat dissipation surface 31. The cooling surface 32 of the cooling chip 3 can be exposed outside the mounting part 111 through the second opening 1112b, thereby preventing the mounting part 111 from reducing the cooling effect of the cooling surface 32.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figures 4 to 5 As shown, a boss 1113 protruding from the grille 112 is formed on the side of the mounting part 111 away from the heat dissipation surface 31. The second opening 1112b is located on the boss 1113, and the cooling surface 32 is exposed outside the boss 1113.

[0037] Specifically, a boss 1113 protruding from the grille 112 is formed on the side of the mounting part 111 away from the heat dissipation surface 31. The second opening 1112b is located on the boss 1113, and the cooling surface 32 is exposed outside the boss 1113. This ensures that the cooling surface 32 on the boss 1113 is in contact with the user's skin for cooling, while preventing the grille 112 from pressing against the user's skin, thus increasing the user's comfort.

[0038] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the cooling fan 100 also includes a cooling cover 5, which is mounted on the boss 1113 and fits against the cooling surface 32.

[0039] Specifically, the cooling cover 5 is positioned on the protrusion 1113 and fits against the cooling surface 32. When the user's skin comes into contact with the cooling cover 5, the cooling cover 5 can efficiently and evenly transfer the cold energy on the cooling surface 32 to the skin to cool it down. At the same time, it can prevent the cooling surface 32 from directly contacting the skin and prevent the skin from being stimulated due to excessively low temperature.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the cooling fan 100 also includes a control circuit board 6 and a battery 7. The other end of the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12 define a mounting cavity 114. The control circuit board 6 and the battery 7 are disposed in the mounting cavity 114. The battery 7, the fan assembly 2, and the cooling chip 3 are all electrically connected to the control circuit board 6.

[0041] Specifically, the other end of the front housing 11 and the rear housing 12 define a mounting cavity 114 to provide mounting space for the control circuit board 6 and the battery 7, allowing the control circuit board 6 and the battery 7 to be sealed and installed inside the housing 1. The battery 7, the fan assembly 2, and the cooling chip 3 are all electrically connected to the control circuit board 6, thereby enabling the control circuit board 6 to control the power supply from the battery 7 to the fan assembly 2 and the cooling chip 3, thus controlling the operation of the fan assembly 2 and the cooling chip 3.

[0042] It is worth mentioning that the control fan assembly 2 and the cooling element 3 can be connected in series with the control circuit board 6, allowing users to control the on / off operation of both the fan assembly 2 and the cooling element 3 simultaneously with a single button. Alternatively, the control fan assembly 2 and the cooling element 3 can be connected in parallel with the control circuit board 6, allowing users to adjust the operating mode of the cooling fan 100 as needed. When rapid cooling is required, the cooling mode can be selected, simultaneously turning on the fan assembly 2 and the cooling element 3 to achieve a cooling effect using the cooling surface 32 for rapid cooling. After rapid cooling, the blowing mode can be selected, turning on the fan assembly 2 alone for regular blowing cooling. This allows users to flexibly choose different operating modes according to actual needs, switching between rapid cooling and regular cooling, improving the applicability of the cooling fan 100 and the user experience.

[0043] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the mounting part 111 is provided with a first wire guide bar 1114 that communicates with the mounting cavity 114. The first wire guide bar 1114 is used to pass through the first wire so that the cooling chip 3 and the control circuit board 6 are connected.

[0044] Specifically, the mounting part 111 is provided with a first wire guide bar 1114 that communicates with the mounting cavity 114. The first wire guide bar 1114 can form a wiring channel for the first wire to pass through, so that the first wire can connect the cooling chip 3 and the control circuit board 6 without being exposed to the outside world, thus avoiding damage to the first wire and ensuring the overall aesthetic appearance of the cooling fan 100.

[0045] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figure 6 As shown, the rear housing 12 is provided with a second wire guide strip 121 that communicates with the mounting cavity 114. The second wire guide strip 121 is used to pass through the second wire so that the fan assembly 2 and the control circuit board 6 can be connected.

[0046] Specifically, the rear cover 12 is provided with a second wire guide strip 121 that communicates with the mounting cavity 114. The second wire guide strip 121 can form a wiring channel for the second wire to pass through, so that the second wire can connect to the fan assembly 2 and the control circuit board 6 without being exposed to the outside, thus avoiding damage to the second wire and ensuring the overall aesthetic appearance of the cooling fan 100.

[0047] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a hanging ring 8 is provided at the end of the front shell 11 away from the cooling chip 3.

[0048] Specifically, a hanging ring 8 is provided at the end of the front shell 11 away from the cooling plate 3, so that the user can hang a lanyard on the hanging ring 8 according to their preference, so that it can be hung around the neck when going out, making it convenient to carry and use.

[0049] It should be understood that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
