Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive radiator technology, specifically to a deformation-resistant water chamber for automotive radiators. Background Technology

[0002] The water chamber of a car radiator refers to the enclosed part at both ends of the radiator or near the inlet and outlet. Its main function is to serve as a collection and distribution area for coolant. The water chamber of the radiator is connected to the radiator core and is responsible for introducing the hot coolant in the engine into the cooling pipes. Then, it is cooled down by the radiator core and flows back to the engine.

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the prior art (publication number: CN202483702U) Chinese patent discloses a deformation-resistant plastic water chamber for automobile radiators. The water chamber has a trough-shaped structure with inlet and outlet water pipes on both sides. A horizontal support plate is fixedly installed in the water chamber. The support plate has evenly distributed and spaced flow channels, which have the function of preventing deformation. That is, the horizontal support plate installed in parallel in the water chamber can effectively prevent the internal shrinkage deformation problem after the water chamber is injection molded, so as to naturally eliminate internal stress and extend the service life of automobile radiators.

[0004] While existing technologies can overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, other problems still exist in their operation: the water chamber of a car radiator is generally located at the front of the radiator, and when the water chamber deforms, it often deforms along with the entire radiator. Existing car radiators only improve the strength of the water chamber, so the effect on improving the overall strength of the radiator is generally limited. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a deformation-resistant water chamber for automotive radiators, thereby solving the problem that existing automotive radiators only improve the strength of the water chamber, thus having a limited effect on improving the overall strength of the radiator.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a deformation-resistant water chamber for an automobile radiator, comprising an outlet tank and an inlet tank, wherein a heat dissipation structure is provided between the outlet tank and the inlet tank;

[0007] The heat dissipation structure includes heat dissipation fins installed between the outlet tank and the inlet tank, and the rear side of the heat dissipation fins is provided with equally spaced connecting grooves. The heat dissipation fins are hexagonal mesh structures.

[0008] Preferably, both ends of the heat dissipation fins are fixedly connected to fixing strips, and fixing bolts are slidably connected to the fixing strips through through holes in the middle.

[0009] Preferably, the outlet tank and the inlet tank are fixedly connected by equidistant heat dissipation pipes, and equidistant diversion holes are provided between the top of the outlet tank and the bottom of the inlet tank. The heat dissipation pipes are installed in the connecting groove, with the upper end of the heat dissipation pipe communicating with the diversion hole of the outlet tank and the lower end communicating with the diversion hole of the inlet tank.

[0010] Preferably, a support column is fixedly connected between the two ends of the water outlet tank and the water inlet tank, and a threaded hole is provided in the middle of the support column, and a fixing bolt is threaded into the threaded hole.

[0011] Preferably, the water inlet tank is provided with an inlet pipe on one side and the water outlet tank is provided with an outlet pipe on the other side, and the water outlet tank and the water inlet tank are connected to the engine through pipes to form a cooling circuit.

[0012] Preferably, a connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the water inlet tank, and a pressure valve is provided at the end of the connecting pipe, and the pressure valve is connected to a liquid storage tank through a pipe.

[0013] Preferably, a sealing plate is fixedly connected to the side of the water outlet tank and the water inlet tank away from the heat dissipation fins, and two motor-driven cooling fans are rotatably connected to the sealing plate, and the sealing plate covers all the heat dissipation pipes.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This anti-deformation water chamber for automotive radiators, through the hexagonal mesh structure formed by the heat dissipation fins, not only significantly increases the heat dissipation area, but also constructs a complete mesh support structure on the front side of the outlet and inlet tanks, effectively strengthening the overall structural strength of the radiator. It can simultaneously improve the anti-deformation ability of the water chamber and the radiator as a whole, significantly reducing the water chamber deformation problem caused by radiator deformation, thereby improving the stability and service life of the radiator.

[0016] The heat dissipation fins and heat pipes are tightly connected by connecting slots, making the structure more compact during heat dissipation and enhancing overall rigidity. The detachable design of the heat dissipation fins facilitates maintenance and cleaning. Attached Figure Description

[0024] 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.

[0025] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 6 This utility model provides the following technical solution: a deformation-resistant water chamber for an automotive radiator, comprising an outlet tank 1 and an inlet tank 2, wherein a heat dissipation structure is provided between the outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2; the heat dissipation structure includes heat dissipation fins 4 installed between the outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2, and the rear side of the heat dissipation fins 4 is provided with equally spaced connecting grooves 5, the heat dissipation fins 4 having a hexagonal mesh structure; both ends of the heat dissipation fins 4 are fixedly connected to fixing strips 6, and fixing bolts 7 are slidably connected to the fixing strips 6 through through holes in the middle. A heat dissipation pipe 8 is fixedly connected between the outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2, and a diversion hole 9 is provided between the top of the outlet tank 1 and the bottom of the inlet tank 2, and the heat dissipation pipe 8 is installed in the connecting groove 5. The upper end of the heat dissipation pipe 8 is connected to the diversion hole 9 of the outlet tank 1, and the lower end is connected to the diversion hole 9 of the inlet tank 2. A support column 10 is fixedly connected between the two ends of the outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2, and a threaded hole 11 is provided in the middle of the support column 10, and the fixing bolt 7 is threaded into the threaded hole 11.

[0026] During the operation of the radiator, the outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2 are connected to the engine through pipes to form a cooling circuit. The outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2 are connected to each other through inlet pipe 12 and outlet pipe 13, respectively. At the same time, the coolant inside the cooling circuit is driven by a water pump installed inside the vehicle.

[0027] The coolant will circulate in the inlet tank 2, radiator pipes 8, outlet tank 1 and inside the engine. After being cooled, the coolant will enter the engine through the outlet pipe 13. After absorbing the heat of the engine, the coolant will be discharged back into the inlet tank 2 through the outlet pipe 13. At this time, the coolant will flow into each radiator pipe 8 through the diversion hole 9 at the bottom of the inlet tank 2, and the radiator pipes 8 will cool the coolant.

[0028] When the coolant flows into the heat pipe 8, since the heat pipe 8 is installed inside the connecting groove 5 and the outer side of the heat pipe 8 is in contact with the heat dissipation fins 4, the coolant inside the heat pipe 8 conducts heat into the heat pipe 8. The heat pipe 8 also conducts heat into the heat dissipation fins 4 through contact with them. Since the heat dissipation fins 4 have a hexagonal mesh structure, their contact area with the air is large, which can effectively dissipate the heat of the coolant. The coolant after being cooled by the heat pipe 8 will enter the water tank 1 through the diversion hole 9 at the top of the water tank 1, and then re-enter the engine through the water outlet pipe 13 to cool it down.

[0029] The heat dissipation fins 4 are hexagonal mesh structures. Therefore, the heat dissipation fins 4 form a complete mesh structure on the front side of the outlet tank 1. This mesh structure is located entirely on the front side of the heat pipe 8. While increasing the heat dissipation area of ​​the heat dissipation fins 4, the complete mesh structure strengthens the overall strength of the radiator and prevents deformation of the outlet tank 1, the inlet tank 2, and the heat pipe 8 due to the deformation of the radiator.

[0030] The heat dissipation fins 4 are designed to be detachable. The fixing strips 6 are installed on the outside of the support column 10, and the fixing bolts 7 are installed inside the threaded holes 11 to connect the fixing strips 6 and the support column 10. At this time, the heat dissipation fins 4 will be located between the outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2, and the connecting grooves 5 set inside the heat dissipation fins 4 will completely wrap around the outside of the heat dissipation pipe 8. Since the pressure valve 14 is a detachable structure, the pressure valve 14 can be removed and cleaned separately when cleaning the radiator.

[0031] Example 2: Based on Example 1, the following structure is also disclosed: an inlet pipe 12 is provided on one side of the inlet tank 2, and an outlet pipe 13 is provided on one side of the outlet tank 1. The outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2 are connected to the engine through pipes to form a cooling circuit. A connecting pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the inlet tank 2, and a pressure valve 14 is provided at the end of the connecting pipe 3. The pressure valve 14 is connected to a liquid storage tank 15 through a pipe. A sealing plate 16 is fixedly connected to the side of the outlet tank 1 and the inlet tank 2 away from the heat dissipation fins 4. Two motor-driven cooling fans 17 are rotatably connected to the sealing plate 16. The sealing plate 16 covers all the heat dissipation pipes 8.

[0032] During the operation of the radiator, the two cooling fans 17 drive air to flow through the gap inside the pressure valve 14, and the air flowing through the gap of the pressure valve 14 carries away the heat of the pressure valve 14, thereby cooling the coolant.

[0033] When the internal pressure of the cooling circuit increases, the pressure valve 14 will draw the coolant from the end of the cooling circuit into the reservoir 15. When the internal pressure of the cooling circuit decreases, the coolant in the reservoir 15 will enter the cooling circuit through the pressure valve 14, thereby maintaining the pressure inside the cooling circuit.

[0034] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" or "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0035] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
