Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat pipe processing technology, specifically a bending machine for heat pipe processing. Background Technology
[0002] The heat pipe is placed on a bending machine. By bending the heat pipe, it can better adapt to complex heat dissipation requirements. For example, in some applications, the heat pipe needs to be bent to adapt to specific spatial layouts. Bending ensures that the heat pipe is more flexible during installation, reduces space occupation, and improves the overall heat dissipation effect. Secondly, improving heat conduction efficiency is also an important purpose of heat pipe bending. Through reasonable bending design, the thermal resistance of the heat pipe can be reduced and the efficiency of heat transfer can be improved. For example, in some cases, bending the heat pipe into a specific shape can increase its contact area with the heat dissipation surface, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.
[0003] However, traditional bending machines have the following disadvantages:
[0004] Traditional bending machines can only bend heat pipes of a single specification. If other specifications of heat pipes need to be bent, the bending head needs to be changed, which increases the bending cost of heat pipes. Utility Model Content
