Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning equipment, specifically a lightweight and efficient automotive air conditioning condenser. Background Technology

[0002] A condenser is a component of a refrigeration system and a type of heat exchanger. It converts gas or vapor into liquid and quickly transfers heat from the tubes to the air near the tubes. The condenser operates by releasing heat, so its temperature is always relatively high.

[0003] To dissipate heat, condensers require heat sinks welded to the outside. However, over time, these heat sinks corrode, leading to reduced heat dissipation. Since the heat sinks are welded in place and cannot be disassembled, replacing them all would be a waste of resources. Therefore, a device is urgently needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a lightweight and efficient automotive air conditioning condenser to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a lightweight and efficient automotive air conditioning condenser, including a mounting bracket, a copper tube fixedly embedded in the inner side of the mounting bracket, and slots on both the upper and lower sides of the mounting bracket. A first heat dissipation mechanism is detachably installed inside the slots, and a second heat dissipation mechanism is detachably installed on the outer side of the mounting bracket. The second heat dissipation mechanism is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting bracket. During use, heat dissipation is achieved through the detachable first and second heat dissipation mechanisms to dissipate heat from the copper tube. When the first and second heat dissipation mechanisms rust, they can be replaced by disassembly, thus ensuring the heat dissipation efficiency of the condenser during long-term use.

[0006] Preferably, the first heat dissipation mechanism includes a housing, a first heat sink, a screw, and a rotating block. The first heat sink is slidably disposed inside the housing, and the screw is movably inserted into the housing. The screw passes through the first heat sink via a thread, and the rotating block is fixed to the outside of the screw. The first heat sink has several arc-shaped grooves on its outer side. In use, the first heat sink is inserted into the grooves, and then the screw is rotated by the rotating block to move the first heat sink along the screw until the arc-shaped end of the first heat sink is in close contact with the outside of the copper tube, thus completing the installation of the first heat sink.

[0007] Preferably, the second heat dissipation mechanism includes a screw hole, a second heat sink, and an extension block. The screw hole is located on the outside of the fixing frame, the extension block is fixed inside the screw hole, and the second heat sink is fixed between the extension blocks. The second heat sink has several arc-shaped grooves on one side. In use, the second heat sink is installed on one side of the fixing frame through the extension blocks. At this time, the arc-shaped grooves of the second heat sink are in close contact with the outside of the copper pipe and are in contact with the first heat sink on the outside of the copper pipe for heat dissipation.

[0008] Preferably, there are two first heat sinks, which are symmetrically installed on both sides of the lower end of the housing.

[0009] Preferably, both sides of the screw extend to the outside of the housing, and the screw is a positive and negative screw.

[0010] Preferably, there are two rotating blocks, which are symmetrically installed on both sides of the screw.

[0011] Preferably, a plurality of screw holes are provided, symmetrically opened on both sides of the fixing frame.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This invention utilizes detachable first and second heat dissipation mechanisms to dissipate heat from the copper tube. When either mechanism rusts, it can be replaced by disassembly, ensuring the condenser's heat dissipation efficiency over extended use. In use, the first heat dissipation fin is inserted into the slot, and then the screw is rotated using a rotating block, causing the fin to move along the screw until its arc-shaped end is in close contact with the outside of the copper tube, thus completing the installation. The second heat dissipation fin is then mounted on one side of the mounting bracket via an extension block. At this point, the arc-shaped groove of the second heat dissipation fin is in close contact with the outside of the copper tube, and together with the first heat dissipation fin, they are fitted together for heat dissipation.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a lightweight and efficient automotive air conditioning condenser, including a mounting bracket 1. A copper tube 2 is embedded and fixed inside the mounting bracket 1. Holes and slots 3 are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the mounting bracket 1. A first heat dissipation mechanism 8 is detachably installed inside the holes and slots 3. A second heat dissipation mechanism is detachably installed on the outside of the mounting bracket 1. The second heat dissipation mechanisms are symmetrically located on both sides of the mounting bracket 1. During use, heat dissipation is achieved through the detachable first heat dissipation mechanism 8 and the second heat dissipation mechanism to dissipate heat from the copper tube 2. When the first heat dissipation mechanism 8 and the second heat dissipation mechanism are corroded, they can be replaced by disassembly, thus ensuring the heat dissipation efficiency of the condenser during long-term use.

[0021] The first heat dissipation mechanism 8 includes a housing 9, a first heat sink 11, a screw 7, and a rotating block 10. The first heat sink 11 slides inside the housing 9. There are two first heat sinks 11, symmetrically installed on both sides of the lower end of the housing 9. The screw 7 is movably inserted inside the housing 9, and both sides of the screw 7 extend to the outside of the housing 9. The screw 7 is a positive and negative screw. The screw 7 passes through the first heat sink 11 through threads. The rotating block 10 is welded and fixed to the outside of the screw 7. There are two rotating blocks 10, symmetrically installed on both sides of the screw 7. Several arc-shaped grooves are opened on the outside of the first heat sink 11. In use, the first heat sink 11 is inserted into the groove 3, and then the screw 7 is rotated by the rotating block 10, so that the first heat sink 11 moves along the screw 7 until the arc-shaped end of the first heat sink 11 is in close contact with the outside of the copper tube 2. This completes the installation of the first heat sink 11.

[0022] The second heat dissipation mechanism includes screw holes 4, a second heat sink 5, and extension blocks 6. Screw holes 4 are opened on the outside of the fixing frame 1, and there are several screw holes 4, which are symmetrically opened on both sides of the fixing frame 1. The extension blocks 6 are fixed inside the screw holes 4 by bolts. The second heat sink 5 is welded and fixed between the extension blocks 6. Several arc-shaped grooves are opened on one side of the second heat sink 5. When in use, the second heat sink 5 is installed on one side of the fixing frame 1 through the extension blocks 6. At this time, the arc-shaped grooves of the second heat sink 5 are in close contact with the outside of the copper pipe 2, and are in close contact with the first heat sink 11 on the outside of the copper pipe 2 for heat dissipation.

[0023] Working principle: During use, heat dissipation is achieved through the detachable first and second heat dissipation mechanisms to cool the copper pipe 2. When the first and second heat dissipation mechanisms 8 and 2 are corroded, they can be replaced by disassembly to ensure the heat dissipation efficiency of the condenser during long-term use. During use, the first heat dissipation fin 11 is inserted into the slot 3, and then the screw 7 is rotated by the rotating block 10 to move the first heat dissipation fin 11 along the screw 7 until the arc-shaped end of the first heat dissipation fin 11 is in close contact with the outside of the copper pipe 2, thus completing the installation of the first heat dissipation fin 11. During use, the second heat dissipation fin 5 is installed on one side of the fixing bracket 1 through the extension block 6. At this time, the arc-shaped groove of the second heat dissipation fin 5 is in close contact with the outside of the copper pipe 2, and it is in close contact with the first heat dissipation fin 11 on the outside of the copper pipe 2 for heat dissipation.
