Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigeration equipment technology, specifically a replaceable refrigeration cold plate. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of refrigeration, cold plates for refrigeration are key components for realizing the refrigeration function. Their performance and design have an important impact on the efficiency and applicability of the entire refrigeration system. However, traditional cold plates for refrigeration face many challenges in practical applications.
[0003] Traditional cold plates are mostly fixedly installed and tightly connected to other components of refrigeration equipment. When a cold plate malfunctions, the disassembly process is extremely complicated. Some cold plates are secured with a large number of screws or use permanent connections such as welding. When disassembling, maintenance personnel not only need to spend a lot of time unscrewing numerous screws, but for welded cold plates, they may even need to use cutting tools. This not only increases the difficulty of maintenance, but may also damage other components of the refrigeration equipment. The complicated disassembly process leads to a significant increase in maintenance time, affecting the normal operation of production or daily life. Often, the only option is to replace the entire refrigeration equipment, resulting in unnecessary waste of resources and increased costs.
[0004] For example, in the battery cooling plate with announcement number CN213425068U, under the action of the spring force, the inclined block moves downward and fits against the arc-shaped plate, thus locking the arc-shaped plate inside the L-shaped rod. The bolt moves along the nut, and the clamping plate moves and fits against the wire, thus clamping the wire between the clamping plate and the cooling plate body. The T-shaped rod is rotated by the fixing pin, and the rotation of the T-shaped rod compresses the reset disc spring. In use, the aforementioned cooling plates are mostly fixed installations, making disassembly complex and maintenance difficult, easily leading to long-term equipment downtime, increasing costs and wasting resources. However, other problems also exist. In terms of cooling effect, traditional cold plates have limited cooling capacity. With the continuous improvement of modern industrial production and living needs, higher requirements are placed on the cooling efficiency and effect of refrigeration equipment. In the cooling process of some high-precision electronic equipment, traditional cold plates cannot quickly and effectively dissipate the heat generated by the equipment, resulting in excessively high equipment temperature, affecting its performance and service life. In food cold chain transportation, traditional cold plates cannot guarantee that the temperature of the food storage environment is always within a suitable range during transportation, which can easily cause food to spoil and significantly reduce the cooling effect, failing to meet the cooling needs of special environments. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a replaceable refrigeration cold plate to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the fact that most refrigeration cold plates are fixed installations, which are complicated to disassemble and difficult to maintain, easily leading to long-term equipment downtime, increasing costs and wasting resources, and that the cold plate has limited refrigeration capacity, which cannot meet modern needs, and the refrigeration effect is even worse in special environments, affecting equipment performance and product quality.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a replaceable refrigeration cold plate, comprising an installation device and a cold plate body disposed thereon; a slot is provided at the lower right front of the cold plate body, and a card plate is fixedly installed inside the slot at the lower end of the cold plate body, and four card plates are evenly distributed around the installation device as the symmetrical center; the installation device is provided with an installation device that facilitates installation and disassembly, and a placement slot is provided at the upper right front of the installation device, and four placement slots are evenly distributed around the installation device as the symmetrical center; the cold plate body is made of copper alloy material, and a refrigeration pipe is embedded in the middle of the cold plate body, and the refrigeration pipe is wavy and filled with refrigerant; a refrigeration mechanism is provided at the upper end of the cold plate body, and an anti-corrosion coating is provided on the outer side of the cold plate body, and the anti-corrosion coating is made of polyurethane material.
[0007] Furthermore, the easy-to-install and disassemble mechanism includes guide wheels fixedly installed inside the upper end of the placement slot, and four guide wheels are evenly distributed around the installation equipment as the rotation center.
[0008] Furthermore, a rotating column is installed inside the guide wheel, and a guide column is set in the middle of the rotating column, with four guide columns evenly distributed around the guide wheel as the center of rotation.
[0009] Furthermore, the guide post and the guide wheel cooperate with each other, and a compression spring is installed at the lower end of the rotating post, with the lower end of the compression spring installed inside the lower end of the placement groove.
[0010] Furthermore, a buckle is fixedly installed at the upper end of the rotating column, and the buckle cooperates with the card plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the refrigeration mechanism includes a refrigerator fixedly installed at the middle of the upper end of the cold plate body, and two refrigeration pipes are installed through the refrigerator.
[0012] Furthermore, a heat sink is fixedly installed on the upper end of the cooler, and a heat sink is installed inside the upper end of the heat sink.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. When the cold plate body is damaged after long-term use, the user presses around the cold plate body. The internal clamping plate of the cold plate body will press the buckle inside the placement groove. The guide column in the middle of the rotating column and the guide wheel will rotate together, so that the rotating column drives the buckle to rotate 90 degrees. The buckle head at the top of the buckle will be released from the clamping plate, and then the cold plate body can be replaced. This achieves quick and easy disassembly, reduces maintenance difficulty and cost, and improves equipment utilization and upgrade convenience.
[0015] Furthermore, when the cold plate malfunctions, maintenance personnel can disassemble it quickly without the need for complex tools, simply by pressing it. Compared to traditional cold plate disassembly, which may take several hours or even longer, this cold plate disassembly process may only take a few minutes, greatly shortening maintenance time. The simple disassembly method avoids the risk of damage to other components of the refrigeration equipment caused by complex disassembly operations, reducing maintenance costs and improving maintenance efficiency.
[0016] Furthermore, when the cold plate is damaged, it can be quickly removed and replaced with a new one, allowing the refrigeration equipment to resume normal operation in the shortest possible time. On industrial production lines, downtime caused by cold plate failure can be reduced from several hours or even a whole day to less than half an hour, effectively reducing production stoppages caused by equipment failure, ensuring the continuity of production operations, and improving equipment utilization efficiency.
[0017] 2. When the installed equipment generates heat during use, the refrigerant inside the cold plate and the refrigeration pipe absorbs the heat from the installed equipment. Then, the refrigeration unit releases the heat absorbed by the refrigerant, and the radiator starts to rotate. The radiator blows the cold air generated by the refrigeration unit at the lower end of the heat sink towards the cold plate body, thereby reducing the temperature of the installed equipment, significantly improving refrigeration efficiency, ensuring product quality, and extending equipment life.
[0018] Furthermore, it can absorb the heat generated by the installed equipment more quickly, and through the synergistic effect of the cooler, heat sink and heat radiator, it can efficiently dissipate the heat, and cool the target space or object to the required temperature in a shorter time. This meets the demand for rapid cooling in modern industrial production and life. Efficient cooling can ensure that the chip is produced in a suitable temperature environment, reduce chip performance instability or defects caused by temperature fluctuations, and improve the product yield.

[0027] 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.
[0028] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-7The present invention provides the following technical solution: a replaceable refrigeration cold plate, comprising an installation device 1 and a cold plate body 2 disposed thereon; a slot is provided at the lower right front of the cold plate body 2, and a card plate 3 is fixedly installed inside the slot at the lower end of the cold plate body 2, and four card plates 3 are evenly distributed around the installation device 1 as the center of symmetry; the installation device 1 is provided with a mechanism for easy installation and disassembly of the installation device 1, and a placement slot 4 is provided at the upper right front of the installation device 1, and four placement slots 4 are evenly distributed around the installation device 1 as the center of symmetry; the cold plate body 2 is made of copper alloy material, and a refrigeration pipe 5 is embedded in the middle of the cold plate body 2, and the refrigeration pipe 5 is wavy, and the interior of the refrigeration pipe 5 is filled with... The device contains a refrigerant. A refrigeration mechanism is installed on the upper end of the cold plate body 2. The outer side of the cold plate body 2 is covered with an anti-corrosion coating 6, which is made of polyurethane material. The mechanism is easy to install and disassemble. The mechanism includes a guide wheel 7 fixedly installed inside the upper end of the placement groove 4. Four guide wheels 7 are evenly distributed around the installation device 1 as the rotation center. A rotating column 8 is installed inside the guide wheel 7. A guide column 9 is set in the middle of the rotating column 8. Four guide columns 9 are evenly distributed around the guide wheel 7 as the rotation center. The guide columns 9 and the guide wheel 7 cooperate with each other. A compression spring 10 is installed at the lower end of the rotating column 8. The lower end of the compression spring 10 is installed inside the lower end of the placement groove 4. A buckle 11 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the rotating column 8. The buckle 11 cooperates with the clamping plate 3.
[0029] When the cold plate body 2 is damaged after prolonged use, the user presses around the cold plate body 2. The internal retaining plate 3 of the cold plate body 2 will press the buckle 11 inside the placement groove 4. The buckle 11 presses the rotating column 8, and the rotating column 8 squeezes the compression spring 10. The compression spring 10 is compressed and squeezes downward. The guide column 9 in the middle of the rotating column 8 and the guide wheel 7 cooperate to rotate, so that the rotating column 8 drives the buckle 11 to rotate 90 degrees. At this time, the buckle head at the upper end of the buckle 11 is released from the locking state of the retaining plate 3, and the cold plate body 2 can be replaced.
[0030] Example 2: Based on Example 1, a refrigeration mechanism is also disclosed, the specific structure of which is as follows:
[0031] The refrigeration mechanism includes a cold plate body 2 with a refrigerator 12 fixedly installed in the middle of the upper end, and two refrigeration pipes 5 are installed through the refrigerator 12. A heat sink 13 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the refrigerator 12, and a heat sink 14 is installed inside the upper end of the heat sink 13.
[0032] When the installed equipment 1 generates heat during use, firstly, the refrigerant inside the cold plate body 2 and the refrigeration pipe 5 absorbs the heat from the installed equipment 1. Then, the cooler 12 releases the heat absorbed by the refrigerant, and the radiator 14 starts to rotate. At the same time, the heat sink 13 absorbs the heat generated by the cooler 12 and dissipates it. During this process, the radiator 14 blows the cold air generated by the cooler 12 at the lower end of the heat sink 13 toward the cold plate body 2, thereby reducing the temperature of the installed equipment 1. The anti-corrosion coating 6 prevents corrosion on the surface of the cold plate body 2 and extends the service life of the cold plate.
