[0030] 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.

[0031] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a heat dissipation device for a power module, including a housing 3, and a power module body 2 is fixedly disposed at the bottom inside the housing 3.

[0032] A base plate 1 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the outer casing 3, and the power module body 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. The base plate 1 seals the bottom end of the outer casing 3, thereby encapsulating the power module body 2 inside the outer casing 3.

[0033] L-shaped grooves 8 are provided on the two corresponding end faces inside the outer casing 3, and arc-shaped recesses 9 are provided on the bottom end faces of the two grooves 8.

[0034] The chute 8 consists of a vertical section and a horizontal section from top to bottom, and the sink chute 9 is located at the end of the horizontal section away from the vertical section.

[0035] Each settling tank 9 has a slider 10 vertically sliding at its location via a first spring 12. The two settling tanks 9 are located between the two sliders 10.

[0036] The outer casing 3 has relief grooves 16 at both recesses 9. The slider 10 is vertically slidably connected to the inside of the corresponding relief groove 16.

[0037] Each clearance groove 16 has two vertically fixed shafts 11 symmetrically fixed inside, and the slider 10 is slidably sleeved on the corresponding two fixed shafts 11. The movement of the slider 10 is positioned by the cooperation of the two fixed shafts 11.

[0038] Four first springs 12 are provided, and the four first springs 12 are respectively sleeved on the four fixed shafts 11. This ensures that each clearance groove 16 is provided with two first springs 12.

[0039] The top end of the first spring 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 10, and the bottom end of the first spring 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the relief groove 16. In the initial state, the first spring 12 pushes the slider 10 upward, so that the top surface of the slider 10 is flush with the bottom surface of the horizontal section of the groove 8.

[0040] Each of the two sliders 10 has a baffle 13 fixedly connected to its opposite side. This allows the sliders 10 to move the baffles 13.

[0041] Sealing plates 15 are horizontally slidably disposed on two corresponding end faces inside the top of the outer casing 3 via second springs 14. The ends of the sealing plates 15 are movably abutted against one side of the corresponding baffles 13. The baffles 13 block the sealing plates 15.

[0042] Positioning grooves 17 are provided on two corresponding end faces inside the outer casing 3, and the positioning grooves 17 pass through the vertical section of the sliding groove 8. The sealing plate 15 is slidably disposed inside the positioning grooves 17. The positioning grooves 17 position the sealing plate 15.

[0043] Several second springs 14 are provided. Several second springs 14 are fixedly connected to one side of the sealing plate 15 at intervals, and the other end of several second springs 14 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the positioning groove 17. In the initial state, the second springs 14 push the sealing plate 15 to slide outward of the positioning groove 17.

[0044] A heat sink 4 is provided on the top of the outer casing 3. The heat sink 4 is U-shaped. Several heat sink fins are fixedly installed at intervals inside the heat sink 4.

[0045] A heat-conducting plate 6 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the heat sink 4, and a sliding shaft 7 is fixedly inserted through the end of the heat-conducting plate 6 away from the heat sink 4. The two ends of the sliding shaft 7 are slidably mounted in two sliding grooves 8. The heat-conducting plate 6 is positioned inside the outer casing 3 by the cooperation of the sliding shaft 7 and the sliding grooves 8.

[0046] A mounting plate 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the heat sink 4, and a protruding plate is fixedly connected to one end of the bottom of the mounting plate 18. A rotating shaft 5 passes through the protruding plate, and the end of the heat-conducting plate 6 away from the sliding shaft 7 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 5. The rotating shaft 5 cooperates with the heat-conducting plate 6 to facilitate the rotation of the heat-conducting plate 6 at the bottom of the heat sink 4.

[0047] Torsion springs are fitted onto the rotating shafts 5 on both sides of the protruding plate, and the torsion springs are located inside the heat-conducting plate 6. One end of the torsion spring is fixedly connected to the heat-conducting plate 6, and the other end of the torsion spring is fixedly connected to the protruding plate. In the initial state, the torsion spring drives the heat-conducting plate 6 to rotate to a vertical position, so as to facilitate the movement of the heat-conducting plate 6.

[0048] Each slider 10 has an arc-shaped groove on its top surface, and the sliding shaft 7 is movably disposed in the corresponding groove. When the sliding shaft 7 slides in the sliding groove 8, it will slide to the top of the slider 10.

[0049] The sealing plate 15 is slidably disposed on the top of the mounting plate 18. Several mounting holes are provided at intervals on both ends of the mounting plate 18 and on the two sealing plates 15. When the sealing plate 15 slides to the top of the mounting plate 18, the mounting holes on the sealing plate 15 correspond one-to-one with the mounting holes on the mounting plate 18, and the sealing plate 15 can be fixed to the mounting plate 18 with bolts.

[0050] Working principle:

[0051] In use, move the power module body 2 inside the outer casing 3 and fix the bottom surface of the power module body 2 to the base plate 1. Then, apply a layer of thermally conductive silicone grease to the outer surface of the power module body 2.

[0052] Move the heat sink 4 so that the end of the heat conduction plate 6 away from the heat sink 4 extends into the outer casing 3. Align the two ends of the sliding shaft 7 with the tops of the two sliding grooves 8 one by one, and insert the two ends of the sliding shaft 7 into the vertical sections of the two sliding grooves 8 respectively.

[0053] Pushing the heat-conducting plate 6 downwards will cause the sliding shaft 7 to slide to the end of the horizontal section of the groove 8. Continue pushing the heat-conducting plate 6 horizontally to make the sliding shaft 7 slide towards the recess 9.

[0054] When the sliding shaft 7 slides to the top of the recess 9, the heat-conducting plate 6 can no longer slide, and the sliding shaft 7 is also located at the top of the slider 10. Rotate the heat-conducting plate 6 to make it horizontal; rotate the heat sink 4 to make it horizontal, and drive the torsion spring to twist. At this time, the mounting plate 18 is located inside the outer casing 3, and the bottom surface of the heat sink 4 is at a distance from the top surface of the outer casing 3.

[0055] Pressing down on the heat sink 4 causes the mounting plate 18, heat conduction plate 6, and slide shaft 7 to move downwards. The slide shaft 7 then presses down on the slider 10, causing the slider 10 to slide on the fixed shaft 11 and compress the first spring 12.

[0056] The slider 10 moves the baffle 13 downwards. When the bottom surface of the heat sink 4 moves to the top of the outer casing 3, the baffle 13 leaves the sealing plate 15. The second spring 14 pushes the sealing plate 15 to the top of the mounting plate 18, so that the mounting holes on the sealing plate 15 correspond one-to-one with the mounting holes on the mounting plate 18.

[0057] Loosen the heat sink 4. Due to the upward thrust of the first spring 12 on the slider 10, the slider 10 abuts against the bottom of the sliding shaft 7, thus fixing the heat conduction plate 6. Then, use bolts to fix the sealing plate 15 to the mounting plate 18 to seal the top of the outer casing 3.

[0058] When the power module body 2 is in use, the heat conduction plate 6 and the mounting plate 18 can transfer heat to the heat sink 4, so that the heat sink fins on the heat sink 4 can dissipate heat, thereby achieving the purpose of heat dissipation for the power module body 2.

[0059] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
