Copper pipes and capillary tubes cool the air using refrigerant. Heat-conducting fins can connect to heat-generating components (for heat dissipation) or to cooling components (for cooling). However, existing heat-conducting components have insufficient contact surface with the air, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0019] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description
[0020] The above and / or additional aspects and advantages of this utility model will become apparent and readily understood from the description of the embodiments taken in conjunction with the following drawings, in which:
[0021] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the heat-conducting component of this utility model.
[0022] Reference numerals: metal sheet 100, hollow area 110, side wall 120, through hole 130, metal mesh 200, bolt 300, nut 400. Detailed Implementation
[0023] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0024] Reference Figure 1 A heat-conducting component includes several metal sheets 100 and several metal meshes 200. The metal sheets 100 have hollowed-out central areas forming hollow regions 110. The metal sheets 100 and metal meshes 200 are arranged in alternating layers. The hollow regions 110 of all the metal sheets 100 are connected to form channels through which airflow can pass. The metal meshes 200 cover the hollow regions 110.
[0025] This invention designs the metal sheet 100 as a hollow structure, with the hollow region 110 facilitating air passage. Several metal sheets 100 and several metal meshes 200 are alternately stacked together. When flowing air passes through the hollow region 110, it passes through layers of metal meshes 200, transferring heat to each layer. The metal meshes 200 then transfer the heat to the metal sheets 100 clamped together with them. By using a sufficient number of metal meshes 200, the contact area between the heat-conducting component and the air is increased, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency for the flowing air. The number and mesh size of the metal meshes 200 can be adjusted to meet the heat exchange requirements of different airflow rates.
[0026] In some embodiments of this invention, the metal sheet 100 is a copper sheet, and the metal mesh 200 is a copper mesh. Copper is a metal with excellent thermal conductivity. The copper sheet and copper mesh serve as the main carriers of heat transfer, and copper's high thermal conductivity can quickly diffuse the heat from the air inside the heat-conducting component to the outside.
[0027] In some embodiments of this utility model, bolts 300 and nuts 400 are also included. The metal sheet 100 and the metal mesh 200 are connected together by bolts 300 and tightened and fixed by the engagement of nuts 400 and bolts 300. When the metal sheet 100 and the metal mesh 200 are stacked alternately, the bolts 300 penetrate all layers. The axial pressure generated after the nuts 400 are tightened ensures that each layer fits tightly, preventing misalignment or separation between layers due to vibration, pressure difference, or external force caused by airflow, thus ensuring the continuity and stability of the airflow channel (hollow region 110). In addition, the connection between bolts 300 and nuts 400 is a detachable connection, which facilitates the adjustment of the number of metal sheets 100 and metal mesh 200 according to actual heat exchange requirements (such as increasing the number of layers to increase the heat exchange area) or the replacement of damaged single layers, without the need for complete scrapping of the entire component, thus improving flexibility and economy.
[0028] In some embodiments of this invention, all metal sheets 100 are rectangular and identical in shape and size, with the four sidewalls 120 of each metal sheet 100 flush with the four sidewalls 120 of adjacent metal sheets 100. During assembly, there is no need to adjust the position of each layer of metal sheets 100 individually (only the sidewalls 120 need to be aligned), significantly reducing assembly time, making it particularly suitable for scenarios requiring multi-layer stacking. The rectangular shape facilitates matching with external structures, and the flush sidewalls 120 design makes the overall component's outer contour regular, suitable for embedding in standardized equipment or for use with other components (such as refrigeration components).
[0029] In some embodiments of this utility model, a cooling component is also included, which makes thermal conductive contact with the sidewall 120 of the metal sheet 100. As mentioned above, the metal sheet 100 is rectangular and its sidewall 120 is flush. The regular shape facilitates the simultaneous contact of the cooling component with the sidewall 120 of all the metal sheets 100, avoiding poor contact caused by irregular structure and ensuring that each metal sheet 100 can exchange heat with the cooling component.
[0030] In some embodiments of this invention, the cooling component is a semiconductor refrigeration chip, and the sidewall 120 of the metal sheet 100 contacts the cold or hot end face of the semiconductor refrigeration chip. When the semiconductor refrigeration chip is energized, the cold end face actively absorbs heat from the contacting sidewall 120 of the metal sheet 100, and through carrier migration in the internal semiconductor material, transfers the heat to the hot end face and dissipates it outwards. As mentioned earlier, the metal sheet 100 is rectangular with flush sidewalls 120. This regular shape allows the sidewalls 120 of multiple metal sheets 100 to form a continuous, flat contact surface, perfectly matching the flat cold end face of the semiconductor refrigeration chip.
[0031] In some embodiments of this utility model, there are four bolts 300 and four nuts 400. Each metal sheet 100 has a through hole 130 near one of its four right angles, and the four bolts 300 are inserted one-to-one into each through hole 130. The four bolts 300 are distributed at the four right angles of the metal sheet 100, forming a symmetrical fastening structure. This ensures that each layer of metal sheet 100 and metal mesh 200 is evenly stressed under the clamping force of the bolts 300 and nuts 400. If fixed at only one or two points, the metal sheet 100 or metal mesh 200 may bend or warp due to uneven stress, affecting the interlayer contact area and thermal conductivity. Uniform clamping ensures a tight fit between the metal sheet 100 and metal mesh 200, reducing the thermal resistance at the contact interface and making heat conduction between the metal mesh 200 and metal sheet 100 more efficient.
[0032] In some embodiments of this utility model, the area on the metal sheet 100 other than the hollow region 110 is the heat-conducting region, and the ratio of the area of the hollow region 110 to the area of the heat-conducting region is (1-2.5):1. The proportion of the hollow region 110 needs to be moderate. If the proportion is too large, the distance from the center of the hollow region 110 to the surrounding heat-conducting regions will be too far, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency between the metal mesh 200 near the center and the metal sheet 100. If the proportion of the hollow region 110 is too small, the airflow channel will be too narrow. Under the same airflow velocity, the total amount of air exchanged per unit time will be reduced, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency. If the same amount of air is to pass through per unit time, the airflow velocity needs to be increased, but the airflow channel is narrow, the flow resistance increases, and noise or energy consumption may increase.
[0033] A drying module includes the aforementioned heat-conducting component. The heat-conducting component is disposed in the air duct of the drying module, one end of which is equipped with a fan and the other end is an air outlet. The heat-conducting component heats or cools the air in the air duct.
[0034] A smart toilet includes the aforementioned drying module.
[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand 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 claims and their equivalents.
