Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive brake caliper cover technology, and in particular to an automotive brake caliper cover with rapid heat dissipation. Background Technology

[0002] A caliper cover is a component typically made of plastic or metal. Through simple external installation, it can create a visual effect similar to a modified caliper. Essentially, it is an "aesthetic part" and cannot improve braking performance. When using a caliper cover, it is necessary to improve its heat dissipation to prevent it from affecting braking performance.

[0003] As shown in the reference case "A Caliper Protective Cover for Automobile Brakes" (Announcement No. CN212177725U), it is fixed to the caliper by magnets, which makes the fixing method simpler. It is also equipped with heat dissipation holes and heat dissipation pipes, which can achieve better heat dissipation. In addition, it is equipped with a patch, which can flexibly install reflective light strips or night light strips on the patch.

[0004] According to the above reference materials, the protective cover of the device is provided with heat dissipation holes and heat dissipation pipes. The heat dissipation holes can play a certain heat dissipation role, and the air blown in through the heat dissipation pipes can also play a certain heat dissipation role. However, when the caliper cover is in use, the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation holes and heat dissipation pipes on the caliper cover is relatively slow, which can easily cause the caliper cover to accumulate heat and affect the braking effect. It is also inconvenient to quickly dissipate heat from the caliper cover, thus reducing the effectiveness of the device. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a fast-heat dissipation automotive brake caliper cover to address the problem of inconvenience in quickly dissipating heat from the caliper cover.

[0006] The device includes a caliper cover body, with a mounting groove in the middle of one side of the caliper cover body; and a heat dissipation mechanism, which is disposed on the inner wall of the caliper cover body for rapid heat dissipation of the automotive brake caliper cover; wherein the heat dissipation mechanism includes a heat-gathering plate fixedly connected to the front end of the inner wall of the caliper cover body, two heat pipes connected to one side of the heat-gathering plate, a heat dissipation plate installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove, and the other end of the heat pipes penetrating the caliper cover body and communicating with the heat dissipation plate.

[0007] In one embodiment, the heat dissipation mechanism further includes several evenly distributed fixing bolts installed on one side of the heat dissipation plate, one end of each fixing bolt passing through the heat dissipation plate and the caliper cover body and being threaded with a nut.

[0008] In one embodiment, several evenly arranged ventilation slots are provided at both ends of the caliper cover body.

[0009] In one embodiment, the ventilation slot is connected to the mounting slot.

[0010] In one embodiment, both ends of the caliper cover body are provided with a plurality of evenly arranged first ventilation holes.

[0011] In one embodiment, the first ventilation hole is disposed on one side of the ventilation slot and is connected to the ventilation slot.

[0012] In one embodiment, the front end of the caliper cover body has several evenly arranged second ventilation holes.

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] 1. The aforementioned fast-heat dissipation automotive brake caliper cover, when the caliper cover body is installed on the caliper, the heat-gathering plate inside the caliper cover body contacts the caliper. The heat-gathering plate is made of aluminum and can transfer heat. The heat-gathering plate and the heat pipe work together to conduct and transport heat to the heat dissipation plate, which dissipates the heat and improves the heat dissipation effect of the caliper cover. The evaporation section of the heat pipe is close to the wheel hub near the axle, and the condensation section of the heat pipe is close to the wheel edge. This can reduce the impact of centrifugal force generated when the wheel hub rotates on the use of the heat pipe, improve the heat dissipation effect of the caliper cover, and achieve rapid heat dissipation of the caliper cover.

[0015] 2. The ventilation slots on the caliper cover body are connected to the mounting slots, which can increase the heat dissipation area of ​​the caliper cover. When the caliper cover body rotates, the airflow can pass through the ventilation slots and blow onto the heat dissipation plate. The first ventilation hole and the second ventilation hole can improve the ventilation effect of the caliper cover and enable rapid heat dissipation of the caliper cover. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The following is combined Figures 1-4 This invention describes a fast-heat dissipation automotive brake caliper cover.

[0029] In one embodiment, a fast-heat dissipation automotive brake caliper cover includes a caliper cover body 100, with a mounting groove 200 formed in the middle of one side of the caliper cover body 100; a heat dissipation mechanism 300, which can quickly dissipate heat from the automotive brake caliper cover, is disposed on the inner wall of the caliper cover body 100; wherein, the heat dissipation mechanism 300 includes a heat-collecting plate 310 fixedly connected to the front end of the inner wall of the caliper cover body 100, two heat pipes 320 connected to one side of the heat-collecting plate 310, a heat dissipation plate 330 installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 200, and the other end of the heat pipe 320 penetrating the caliper cover body 100 and communicating with the heat dissipation plate 330.

[0030] It should be noted that the caliper cover typically consists of a caliper cover body 100 and connecting components. The caliper cover, through simple external installation, can achieve a visual effect similar to a modified caliper. The connecting components include a first connecting piece and a second connecting piece. A third connecting piece for securing the vehicle's brake caliper is fastened to the second connecting piece. The heat dissipation mechanism 300, through the cooperation of a heat-collecting plate 310, heat pipe 320, and heat dissipation plate 330, can conduct and dissipate the heat generated by the caliper. Furthermore, the ventilation efficiency of the caliper cover is improved through the first ventilation hole 360 ​​and the second ventilation hole 370, without affecting the normal use of the caliper cover.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the heat dissipation mechanism 300 also includes several evenly distributed fixing bolts 340 installed on one side of the heat dissipation plate 330. One end of the fixing bolt 340 passes through the heat dissipation plate 330 and the caliper cover body 100 in sequence and is threaded with a nut.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the caliper is cooled, the caliper comes into contact with the heat-collecting plate 310 to absorb and concentrate the heat on the caliper. Then, it comes into contact with one end of the heat pipe 320 to transfer the heat into the heat pipe 320. The heat pipe 320 then transfers the heat to the heat dissipation plate 330. The airflow generated by the rotation of the wheel can accelerate the cooling of the heat dissipation plate 330. The heat dissipation plate 330 is installed on the caliper cover body 100 by fixing bolts 340, which can quickly dissipate heat from the caliper cover and improve the performance of the caliper cover.

[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both ends of the caliper cover body 100 are provided with several evenly arranged ventilation slots 350, which are connected to the mounting slot 200. Both ends of the caliper cover body 100 are provided with several evenly arranged first ventilation holes 360, which are located on one side of the ventilation slots 350 and are connected to the ventilation slots 350. The front end of the caliper cover body 100 is provided with several evenly arranged second ventilation holes 370.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the caliper cover is cooled, the ventilation slot 350 is connected to the mounting slot 200 to ventilate and cool the heat sink 330. The first ventilation hole 360 ​​and the second ventilation hole 370 cooperate to improve the ventilation effect of the caliper cover, improve the airflow effect of the caliper cover, and improve the heat dissipation effect of the caliper cover.

[0035] Working principle: When the caliper cover is installed on the caliper, the heat-concentrating plate 310 contacts the caliper, which can concentrate the heat generated by the heat-concentrating plate 310 and transfer the heat to the evaporation section of the heat pipe 320. The liquid in the wick at one end of the heat pipe 320 evaporates and vaporizes. The vapor flows to the other end under a small pressure difference, releases heat, and condenses into liquid. The liquid then flows back to the evaporation section along the porous material by the action of capillary force. The other end of the heat pipe 320 cooperates with the heat-concentrating plate 310 to cool and dissipate heat. The ventilation slot 350 on the caliper cover body 100 can increase the contact area between the heat dissipation plate 330 and the air. The first ventilation hole 360 ​​and the second ventilation hole 370 can further improve the ventilation effect of the caliper cover.

[0036] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0037] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
