Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil cooler technology, specifically to a flow guiding device for an enhanced oil cooler. Background Technology

[0002] When the engine of a slag tanker truck is running, the viscosity of the engine oil decreases as the temperature rises, reducing its lubrication capacity. Therefore, some engines are equipped with an oil cooler, which is used to lower the oil temperature and maintain a certain viscosity of the lubricating oil.

[0003] Existing technology, such as the patent application "CN221400683U", discloses a closed-loop oil cooler, including a mounting frame. Several curved heat dissipation pipes are fixedly connected between the two inner sides of the mounting frame. A diversion groove is formed on the upper side of the mounting frame, and an oil supply pipe is fixedly connected to the left side of the bottom of the diversion groove through an opening. This patent relates to the field of oil cooler technology. This closed-loop oil cooler, by installing several curved heat dissipation pipes inside the mounting frame and connecting them to the diversion groove via several oil supply pipes, works in conjunction with heat dissipation fins and a fan. This structural design allows for the diversion of a large volume of flowing oil, increasing the contact area between the curved heat dissipation pipes and the heat dissipation fins. Combined with the fan, this effectively improves heat dissipation efficiency, meeting current usage requirements.

[0004] However, the aforementioned closed-loop oil cooler has a problem: it dissipates heat through air cooling, but the internal temperature of the vehicle's engine is usually high, resulting in heat being trapped in the airflow generated by the fan, leading to less than ideal cooling performance. Therefore, we propose an enhanced airflow guiding device for the oil cooler. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem of poor heat dissipation by providing a flow guiding device for an enhanced oil cooler.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] An enhanced oil cooler's flow guiding device includes a cooler body. A baffle is fixedly installed at the top arc end of the cooler body. An opening and closing plate is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the baffle away from the arc end. A spiral oil pipe is installed on the inner wall of the cooler body. A circulation device is provided inside the cooler body. The circulation device includes a corrugated heat dissipation plate and a square heat dissipation frame. The corrugated heat dissipation plate is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the spiral oil pipe near the arc end of the cooler body. The square heat dissipation frame penetrates and is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the spiral oil pipe away from the arc end of the cooler body. A coolant box is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cooler body, and an inlet hole is opened at the top of the coolant box. A box cover is provided at the top of the inlet hole of the coolant box. A fixing seat is fixedly installed at the bottom of the coolant box. A pump is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixing seat. A sealing seat is fixedly installed at the output end of the pump. A circulation pipe is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the corrugated heat dissipation plate near the arc segment of the cooler body.

[0008] Preferably, an oil inlet pipe is fixedly installed at the top of the outer wall of the cooler body, and an oil outlet pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer wall of the cooler body. The oil inlet pipe and the oil outlet pipe are connected by a spiral oil pipe. The surface of the opening and closing plate is provided with heat dissipation holes, and the number of spiral oil pipes is three.

[0009] Preferably, the number of wave heat sinks is several, and the wave heat sinks are arranged at equal intervals with uniform heights. The number of square heat sink frames is four, and the square heat sink frames are made of copper metal, which is easy to dissipate heat.

[0010] Preferably, the input end of the pump is connected to the bottom of the coolant box, the sealing seat has a notch at the bottom near the corrugated heat sink, and the other end of the circulation pipe is connected to the top of the coolant box.

[0011] By employing the above technical solution, this utility model provides a flow guiding device for an enhanced oil cooler. The beneficial effects are as follows: This utility model, through the arrangement of corrugated heat dissipation plates and a square heat dissipation frame, with the copper square heat dissipation frame vertically inserted into the spiral oil pipe, significantly slows down the oil flow rate by generating turbulence, extending the heat exchange time. Its highly thermally conductive copper material quickly absorbs residual heat in the oil and discharges it through the heat dissipation holes of the opening and closing plate, improving heat dissipation efficiency. The corrugated heat dissipation plates are arranged at equal intervals on the outer wall of the spiral oil pipe, increasing the heat dissipation area to absorb most of the high temperature of the oil. Combined with the coolant circulation system, this ensures continuous heat transfer and prevents heat accumulation. Attached Figure Description

[0017] 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. Example

[0018] A flow guiding device for an enhanced oil cooler, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the device includes a cooler body 1. A baffle 11 is fixedly installed at the top arc end of the cooler body 1. An opening and closing plate 12 is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the baffle 11 away from the arc end. A spiral oil pipe 15 is installed on the inner wall of the cooler body 1. A circulation device 2 is provided inside the cooler body 1. The circulation device 2 includes a corrugated heat dissipation plate 21 and a square heat dissipation frame 22. The corrugated heat dissipation plate 21 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the spiral oil pipe 15 near the arc end of the cooler body 1. The square heat dissipation frame 22 passes through and is fixedly installed on the spiral oil pipe 15. The oil pipe 15 is located away from the outer wall of the arc end of the cooler body 1. A coolant box 23 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cooler body 1. The top of the coolant box 23 has an inlet hole. A box cover 24 is provided on the top of the inlet hole of the coolant box 23. A fixing seat 25 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the coolant box 23. A pump 26 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixing seat 25. A sealing seat 27 is fixedly installed on the output end of the pump 26. A circulation pipe 28 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the corrugated heat dissipation plate 21 near the arc section of the cooler body 1.

[0019] An oil inlet pipe 13 is fixedly installed at the top of the outer wall of the cooler body 1, and an oil outlet pipe 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer wall of the cooler body 1. The oil inlet pipe 13 and the oil outlet pipe 14 are connected by a spiral oil pipe 15. Heat dissipation holes are provided on the surface of the opening and closing plate 12. There are three spiral oil pipes 15.

[0020] There are several wave heat sinks 21, and the wave heat sinks 21 are arranged at equal heights and distances. There are four square heat sink frames 22, and the square heat sink frames 22 are made of copper metal, which is easy to dissipate heat.

[0021] The input end of the pump 26 is connected to the bottom of the coolant box 23, the sealing seat 27 has a notch at the bottom near the wave heat sink 21, and the other end of the circulation pipe 28 is connected to the top of the coolant box 23.

[0022] When the enhanced oil cooler of this utility model is in use, the oil in the tank truck enters through the oil inlet pipe 13 and enters the spiral oil pipe 15. After the oil flows in, the flow of the oil is turbulent due to the square heat dissipation frame 22 inserted vertically in the spiral oil pipe 15, and the flow rate slows down. After the oil flows through the square heat dissipation frame 22, the oil will fully contact the square heat dissipation frame 22. The copper square heat dissipation frame 22 will absorb the heat in the oil. The heat dissipation holes of the opening and closing plate 12 will release a small part of the heat absorbed by the copper square heat dissipation frame 22. At the same time, the corrugated heat dissipation plate 21 absorbs most of the high temperature of the oil. The cooled oil is then discharged into the lubrication system circulation oil circuit through the oil outlet pipe 14.

[0023] Since the heat from the corrugated heat sink 21 is not processed, coolant is added to the coolant box 23 and then the box is closed with the cover 24. During the operation of the slag tanker, the pump 26 is turned on. The input end of the pump 26 draws coolant from the bottom of the coolant box 23 to the output end, and then discharges it into the corrugated heat sink 21 with alternating high and low heights through the sealing seat 27 connected to the output end. The coolant fills the cavity formed by the corrugated heat sink 21 and the arc segment of the cooler body 1 from top to bottom. The coolant carries the heat absorbed by the corrugated heat sink 21 to the end of the arc segment of the cooler body 1 through the water flow, and then through the top... When the circulating pipe 28 returns to the coolant box 23 for recycling, the copper square heat sink 22, which is vertically inserted into the spiral oil pipe 15, generates turbulence to significantly slow down the oil flow rate and prolong the heat exchange time. Its high thermal conductivity copper material quickly absorbs the residual heat in the oil and discharges it through the heat dissipation holes of the opening and closing plate 12, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The corrugated heat sink 21 is arranged at equal heights on the outer wall of the spiral oil pipe 15 to increase the heat dissipation area to absorb most of the high temperature of the oil. In conjunction with the coolant circulation system, it ensures that heat is continuously transferred, avoids heat accumulation, and greatly improves the heat dissipation efficiency.
