Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive technology, specifically to a vehicle heating core that effectively utilizes space. Background Technology

[0002] A vehicle heater core is an accessory installed inside a vehicle for heating the air. When operating, the coolant heated by the vehicle's engine flows through the heater core, and then the vehicle's internal airflow system blows air through the heater core into the vehicle's interior, thus providing hot air. Multiple heater cores are typically installed inside the vehicle to heat air vents at different locations. Existing heater cores generally consist of parallel inlet and outlet chambers, with inlet and outlet pipes located on one side of each chamber. Multiple hollow water-passing plates are arranged side-by-side between the inlet and outlet chambers, allowing air to flow through and be heated before being delivered as warm air. Because the accelerator and brake pedals are located in front of the cockpit feet, the water inlet pipe located on the lower side needs to bend to avoid them. Moreover, the bending radius of the pipe is relatively large. Therefore, the width of the heater core body needs to be shortened to make room for the bend of the water inlet pipe. The narrowing of the heater core body will reduce the amount of hot water flowing in, reduce the heat supply, and reduce the heat exchange efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a vehicle heater core that effectively utilizes space. By using this device, the problems mentioned in the background are solved.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vehicle heater core that effectively utilizes space, comprising a water inlet chamber, a water outlet chamber, and a plurality of water-passing plates disposed between the water inlet chamber and the water outlet chamber. A water outlet pipe is provided on one side of the water outlet chamber, and a side water chamber facing the water outlet chamber is provided on the side of the water inlet chamber near the water outlet pipe. The side water chamber is connected to the water inlet chamber, and a water inlet pipe is provided on the upper side of the side water chamber.

[0005] Furthermore, the side water chamber is provided with several partitions on the upper side of the inlet pipe, which are separated from the outlet water chamber.

[0006] Furthermore, both the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are equipped with a docking mechanism, which includes two connectors that are connected to each other by a connector.

[0007] Furthermore, the connector is provided with a cavity, and a plug is provided in the cavity that can move back and forth. The diameter of the cavity is larger than the diameter of the plug. A push rod extending out of the connector is provided on the plug. The diameter of the push rod is smaller than the inner diameter of the connector. An elastic element is provided on the rear side of the cavity to force the plug to block the front side of the cavity.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer end of the push rod is provided with a mating surface, and the mating surfaces of the push rods that meet each other are a convex conical surface and an inward concave conical surface, respectively.

[0009] Furthermore, the connecting component is a clamp.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model sets a side water chamber on the water inlet chamber, and sets a water inlet pipe on the side water chamber. The water inlet pipe is located above the accelerator and brake pedals, which saves the space occupied by the original water inlet pipe bending, thereby increasing the width of the heater core body, increasing the heat supply, and improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0016] like Figure 1-3As shown, the purpose of this embodiment is to provide a vehicle heater core that effectively utilizes space, including a water inlet chamber 1, a water outlet chamber 2, and several water-passing plates 3 disposed between the water inlet chamber 1 and the water outlet chamber 2. A water outlet pipe 4 is provided on one side of the water outlet chamber 2, and a side water chamber 5 facing the water outlet chamber 2 is provided on the side of the water inlet chamber 1 near the water outlet pipe 4. The side water chamber 5 is connected to the water inlet chamber 1, and a water inlet pipe 6 is provided on the upper side of the side water chamber 5. The water inlet pipe 6 is located above the accelerator and brake pedals, which saves the space occupied by the original bend of the water inlet pipe 6, thereby increasing the width of the heater core body, increasing the heat supply, and improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0017] Preferably, the side water tank 5 is provided with a plurality of partitions 7 on the upper side of the inlet pipe 6, which are separated from the outlet water tank 2. The partitions 7 separate the side water tank 5 from the outlet water tank 2.

[0018] Preferably, both the inlet pipe 6 and the outlet pipe 4 are provided with a docking mechanism. The docking mechanism includes two connectors 8 that are connected to each other by a connector 9. Preferably, the connector 9 is a circular clamp. In this embodiment, the outer edge of each connector 8 is provided with a protruding edge 10 to cooperate with the clamp for fixation. The inner side of the protruding edge 10 can be provided with an angle to facilitate the tightening of the clamp. The inlet pipe 6 and the outlet pipe 4 can be connected through the docking mechanism to disassemble and assemble the heater core, making it convenient to remove the heater core for cleaning dust.

[0019] Preferably, the connector 8 is provided with a cavity 11, and a plug 12 is provided in the cavity 11 that can move back and forth. The diameter of the cavity 11 is larger than the diameter of the plug 12. A push rod 13 extending out of the connector 8 is provided on the plug 12. The diameter of the push rod 13 is smaller than the inner diameter of the connector 8. An elastic element 14 is provided on the rear side of the cavity 11, which tends to force the plug 12 to block the front side of the cavity 11. In this embodiment, the elastic element 14 is a spring. When disassembling the heater core, the clamp can be removed, and then the heater core can be taken out directly. The plug 12 can be pressed against the front side of the cavity 11 under the action of the spring, thereby preventing water leakage. During installation, the heater core can be directly brought close to the inlet pipe 6 and the outlet pipe 4. The connectors 8 are mated and pressed together. The push rods 13 cooperate to push inward, so that the plug 12 is disengaged from the front side of the cavity 11, thereby connecting the two connectors 8. Then, the two connectors 8 can be fixed by the clamp.

[0020] Preferably, the outer end of the push rod 13 is provided with a mating surface, and the mating surfaces of the push rods 13 that mate with each other are a convex conical surface and a concave conical surface, respectively. The push rods 13 of the two mating joints 8 can be aligned by the convex conical surface and the concave conical surface.
