Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0040] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a multi-layer composite avionics packaging housing assembly, comprising:

[0041] A composite encapsulation housing 1, comprising:

[0042] A glass-based potting material layer 11 is potted on the outside of the avionics device, and the terminals of the avionics device extend to the outside of the composite encapsulation shell 1.

[0043] The outer wall of the glass-based potting material layer 11 is vacuum hot-pressed to form a thermally conductive intermediate layer 12, and its outer wall is provided with a high-temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the glass-based potting material layer 11 is made by doping a ceramic filler into a low-melting-point glass. The added ceramic component is PbTiO3, which ensures that the glass-based potting material layer 11 has high thermal conductivity, heat resistance and chemical stability. Compared with organic materials, glass-based inorganic non-metallic materials have higher chemical stability and radiation damage resistance. After doping with PbTiO3, lead atoms effectively attenuate the incident radiation energy through photoelectric effect and Compton scattering, reducing the damage of radiation to the packaged device.

[0045] The thermally conductive intermediate layer 12 is specifically a carbon fiber reinforced aluminum matrix composite material, which is made by mixing aluminum powder, carbon fiber and rare earth elements and forming it by vacuum hot pressing. The mixing ratio of aluminum powder, carbon fiber and rare earth elements is obtained by comparing multiple experiments. In this embodiment, the ratio of the three is 60%, 37% and 3%, respectively. The carbon fiber reinforced aluminum matrix composite material achieves high thermal conductivity and low expansion coefficient through the material's own properties.

[0046] Rare earth elements include at least one of cerium, gadolinium, europium, dysprosium, samarium, and promethium;

[0047] The high-temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13 is specifically a titanium-aluminum based intermetallic compound, which is set on the outer wall of the thermally conductive intermediate layer 12 using 3D printing technology. It has high high-temperature resistance and, as the outermost layer, has high mechanical strength and compressive strength.

[0048] Furthermore, the glass-based potting material layer 11, the thermally conductive intermediate layer 12, and the high-temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13, distributed from the inside out, constitute a multi-layered composite encapsulation shell. The glass-based potting material layer 11 has high thermal conductivity, high-temperature resistance, and radiation resistance; the thermally conductive intermediate layer 12 has high thermal conductivity and a low coefficient of expansion; and the high-temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13 has strong compressive strength and high-temperature resistance. The multi-layered composite structure compensates for the shortcomings of single-layer materials, forming an electronic encapsulation shell assembly that is more suitable for the aerospace field and has better thermal conductivity, higher compressive strength, and radiation resistance.

[0049] More specifically, an electroplating layer is set on the outer wall of the high-temperature alloy outer layer 13. The shell is protected by a process of nickel plating followed by gold plating. A vacuum heat treatment process is used to remove hydrogen ions attached to the plating layer, so as to prevent hydrogen ions from penetrating into the interior of the plating layer and causing the material to become brittle due to a significant reduction in toughness.

[0050] In some embodiments, an anti-deformation support structure 2 is assembled between the outer wall of the thermally conductive intermediate layer 12 and the inner wall of the high-temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13. The anti-deformation support structure 2 is supported in the gap between the thermally conductive intermediate layer 12 and the high-temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13, enhancing the device's resistance to deformation under high pressure. The anti-deformation support structure 2 is made of a material with good thermal conductivity to conduct heat.

[0051] In some embodiments, the deformation-resistant support structure 2 includes:

[0052] Support block 21 is uniformly and fixedly assembled between the outer wall of the heat-conducting intermediate layer 12 and the inner wall of the high-temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13.

[0053] A gap 22 is left between adjacent support blocks 21.

[0054] In this embodiment, the support block 21 is made of a material with good thermal conductivity, high mechanical strength, and high temperature resistance; in this embodiment, a tungsten-copper alloy is used.

[0055] Furthermore, a gap 22 is left between adjacent support blocks 21 to form an air interlayer. The air interlayer, as a low conductivity medium, forms an impedance difference with the metal shell, which can enhance the reflection loss of electromagnetic waves. According to the electromagnetic shielding principle, when electromagnetic waves enter the low impedance medium air interlayer from the high temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13, the reflectivity is significantly improved.

[0056] The spaced support blocks 21 can change the propagation path of electromagnetic waves in the air interlayer, forcing the electromagnetic waves to undergo multiple reflections and refractions, increasing energy dissipation. The density and spacing of the support blocks need to be optimized through simulation to avoid forming electromagnetic leakage channels.

[0057] More specifically, the evenly distributed support blocks 21 uniformly disperse the pressure, ensuring the device's resistance to deformation under high-pressure conditions.

[0058] In some embodiments, the support block 21 is specifically frustum-shaped, with the outer end of the frustum being the smaller end. The shape of the frustum allows the pressure applied to its surface to be distributed more evenly. This uniform pressure distribution helps to reduce local stress concentration, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the structure. The upper and lower base radii of the frustum are different. This design allows the pressure to change gradually during transmission, rather than changing abruptly. This gradual design helps to smooth the transition of pressure, further reducing stress concentration, better dispersing pressure, and improving the pressure resistance of the device.

[0059] In some embodiments, the thermally conductive intermediate layer 12 includes:

[0060] A high-density layer 121 and a low-density layer 122 are distributed in a gradient from the inside to the outside;

[0061] The material density of the high-density layer 121 is greater than that of the low-density layer 122.

[0062] Specifically in this embodiment, within the critical pressure range, as the density of the pressure-reinforcing material increases, two layers of carbon fiber reinforced aluminum matrix composite material with different densities are prepared, and the two layers are vacuum hot-pressed together to form a connected high-density layer 121 and low-density layer 122.

[0063] Furthermore, the high-density layer 121 and low-density layer 122, with their gradient distribution from the inside out, form a directional heat conduction path, reducing thermal resistance and lateral heat diffusion. This achieves a directional heat conduction path where heat is rapidly conducted away from the bottom while the top remains lightweight to maintain heat dissipation, effectively reducing thermal resistance. This design balances the requirements of lightweight design and efficient heat dissipation in avionics packaging.

[0064] In some embodiments, a mesh skeleton 123 is embedded in both the high-density layer 121 and the low-density layer 122 to support and modify the high-density layer 121 and the low-density layer 122 of the thermally conductive intermediate layer 12, thereby improving their compressive strength.

[0065] In some embodiments, the mesh skeleton 123 includes:

[0066] Transverse support 1232 and longitudinal support 1231;

[0067] The transverse support rod 1232 and the longitudinal support rod 1231 are integrally formed to form a grid.

[0068] like Figure 4 As shown, the mesh skeleton 123 is made of carbon fiber material and consists of a mesh of transverse support rods 1232 and longitudinal support rods 1231 to support and modify the high-density layer 121 or the low-density layer 122.

[0069] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the composite encapsulation housing 1 has a reserved channel 3 corresponding to the wiring terminals of the avionics device;

[0070] The reserved channel 3 contains wiring terminals for corresponding avionics devices;

[0071] A solder layer 31 is provided between the inner wall of the reserved channel 3 and the wiring terminal of the corresponding avionics device.

[0072] Specifically, in this embodiment, the gap between the wiring terminals of the avionics device and the reserved channel on the outer wall of the composite packaging shell 1 is sealed by the solder layer 31, thereby improving the overall high temperature resistance of the composite packaging shell 1; the solder is made of conductive material, and the gap between the reserved channel on the outer wall of the high temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13 and the wiring terminals of the avionics device is sealed by the solder layer 31, thereby improving the electromagnetic resistance of the high temperature resistant alloy outer layer 13.

[0073] In some embodiments, the edges of the high-temperature alloy outer layer 13 along its length are rounded surfaces 4. The integrated shell is formed using 3D printing technology. The design of the edges along its length being rounded surfaces 4 reduces welds and improves compressive strength.

[0074] In some embodiments, a connecting lug 5 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the composite package housing 1 near the edge of the wiring terminals of the avionics device. When needed, the connecting lug 5 can be fixed to the circuit board or other structure by screws to ensure that it remains stable and secure during use.

[0075] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
