Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intercooler technology, and in particular to an intercooler that is easy to assemble. Background Technology

[0002] Intercoolers are generally only seen in cars equipped with turbochargers, because they are actually a component of turbochargers. Their function is to reduce the temperature of the high-temperature air after turbocharging, thereby reducing the engine's thermal load, increasing the intake air volume, and thus increasing the engine's power. For turbocharged engines, the intercooler is an important component of the turbocharging system. Whether it is a supercharged engine or a turbocharged engine, an intercooler needs to be installed between the turbocharger and the intake manifold.

[0003] The usual procedure is for the operator to prepare the necessary tools, such as wrenches, screwdrivers, torque wrenches, and sealant, and use the appropriate tools to remove the screws, clamps, or other fixing devices that secure the intercooler before replacing it.

[0004] The current installation process requires operators to tighten each screw individually, which is not only cumbersome but also inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0027] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides an intercooler that is easy to assemble, including an intercooler body 1. The top of the intercooler body 1 is provided with a first liquid inlet pipe 2 and a second liquid inlet pipe 3. A heat dissipation shell 4 is provided inside the intercooler body 1. A quick-installation assembly 5 is provided inside the intercooler body 1. A cleaning assembly 6 is provided on the outer wall of the intercooler body 1. The quick-installation assembly 5 includes grooves 501 symmetrically opened on the outer wall of the intercooler body 1. The inner side of the grooves 501 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the heat dissipation shell 4. A locking hole 502 is opened on the inner side of the grooves 501. A locking block 503 is slidably connected inside the locking hole 502. A sliding rod 504 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the locking block 503. A first spring 505 is sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding rod 504. An unlocking block 506 is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding rod 504 away from the locking block 503.

[0030] Specifically, one end of the first spring 505 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the locking hole 502, and the other end of the first spring 505 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slide bar 504. The locking block 503 is trapezoidal in shape, and the outer wall of the locking block 503 is in contact with the outer wall of the heat sink 4.

[0031] Furthermore, when disassembling the heat sink 4 inside the intercooler body 1, simply pull the unlocking block 506 to drive the slide rod 504 to compress the first spring 505, causing the slide rod 504 to slide the locking block 503 into the locking groove, thus unlocking the heat sink 4. Then, remove the heat sink 4 from the groove 501, place the new heat sink 4 in the groove 501, and then release the pulled unlocking block 506. The first spring 505, which is compressed by the slide rod 504, will then drive the slide rod 504 to slide through its elastic force. Then, the slide rod 504 will drive the locking block 503 to slide, thus locking the new heat sink 4.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment. The cleaning component 6 includes a limiting frame 601 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the intercooler body 1. A connecting strip 602 is slidably connected inside the limiting frame 601. A lifting groove 603 is provided on the outer wall of the intercooler body 1. One end of the connecting strip 602 away from the limiting frame 601 is slidably connected to the inside of the lifting groove 603 and extends into the inside of the intercooler body 1. A cleaning plate 604 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting strip 602. An adjustment groove 605 is provided on the outer wall of the limiting frame 601. A toggle post 606 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting strip 602. The outer wall of the toggle post 606 is slidably connected to the inner side of the adjustment groove 605. A limiting post 607 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting strip 602. A second spring 608 is sleeved on the outer wall of the limiting post 607. A limiting hole 609 is provided inside the limiting frame 601.

[0034] Specifically, a number of bristles 610 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the outer wall of the cleaning plate 604. The contact end of the bristles 610 abuts against the outer wall of the heat dissipation housing 4. One end of the second spring 608 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting strip 602, and the other end of the second spring 608 is fixedly connected to the inside of the limiting frame 601. The connecting strip 602 is L-shaped. The outer wall of the limiting post 607 is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting hole 609.

[0035] Furthermore, when it is necessary to clean the heat sink housing 4, the connecting strip 602 is slid by moving the toggle pin 606, and then the connecting strip 602 drives the cleaning plate 604 to slide. Then the cleaning plate 604 drives the bristles 610 to clean the impurities on the outer wall of the heat sink housing 4. While the connecting strip 602 is sliding, the second spring 608 is squeezed and the limiting pin 607 is slid inside the limiting hole 609. When the cleaning work is completed, the toggle pin 606 is released, and the elastic force of the second spring 608 being squeezed drives the connecting strip 602 to reset.

[0036] Working principle: When disassembling the heat sink 4 inside the intercooler body 1, simply pull the unlocking block 506 to drive the slide rod 504 to compress the first spring 505, causing the slide rod 504 to slide the locking block 503 into the locking groove, thus unlocking the heat sink 4. Then, remove the heat sink 4 from the groove 501, place a new heat sink 4 in the groove 501, and then release the pulled unlocking block 506. The first spring 505, compressed by the slide rod 504, will then drive the slide rod 504 to slide through its elastic force, and the slide rod 504 will then drive the locking block 503 to slide. The action locks the new heat sink 4 in place. When the heat sink 4 needs to be cleaned, the connecting bar 602 is slid by moving the actuating pin 606. Then the connecting bar 602 moves the cleaning plate 604, which in turn moves the bristles 610 to clean the impurities on the outer wall of the heat sink 4. While the connecting bar 602 is sliding, the second spring 608 is squeezed and the limiting pin 607 slides inside the limiting hole 609. When the cleaning is completed, the actuating pin 606 is released, and the elastic force of the second spring 608 causes the connecting bar 602 to reset.
