[0017] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0018] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a heat pipe liquid injection and sealing device, including an operating platform 1, a pipe moving mechanism 2, a lifting mechanism 3 and a liquid injection and sealing mechanism 4; The lifting mechanism 3 includes a lifting bracket 31, a lifting drive assembly 32, and a lifting plate 33; the liquid injection and sealing mechanism 4 includes a liquid injection assembly 41, a vacuuming assembly 42, and a sealing assembly 43; the liquid injection assembly 41, the vacuuming assembly 42, and the sealing assembly 43 are respectively disposed on the lifting plate 33, the sealing assembly 43 is disposed on both sides of the vacuuming assembly 42, and the liquid injection assembly 41 is located at the upstream end of the vacuuming assembly 42; The tube transfer mechanism 2 is mounted on the operating platform 1, and the lifting bracket 31 is mounted on the outside of the tube transfer mechanism 2. The tube transfer mechanism 2 is used to clamp the heat transfer tube to be processed and drive the heat transfer tube to be processed to move along the Y-axis direction. The lifting drive assembly 32 is mounted on the lifting bracket 31. The lifting drive assembly 32 is connected to the lifting plate 33 and is used to drive the lifting plate 33 to move in the vertical direction.
[0020] The lifting bracket 31 is used to mount the lifting drive assembly 32, providing a stable support structure for the lifting drive assembly 32. This makes the lifting drive assembly 32 more stable during the process of raising and lowering the lifting plate 33, improving processing accuracy and reducing the impact of the lifting plate 33's shaking on the effects of liquid injection, vacuuming, or sealing. The operating platform 1 is used to fix the lifting bracket 31 and the pipe transfer mechanism 2, providing stable support for them.
[0021] The tube transfer mechanism 2 is used to move the heat pipe to be processed, so that the heat pipe to be processed passes through the liquid injection assembly 41 and the vacuuming assembly 42 in sequence; while the lifting drive assembly 32 is used to drive the lifting plate 33 to move along the Z-axis direction, which can drive the liquid injection assembly 41, the vacuuming assembly 42 and the sealing assembly 43 to approach the heat pipe to be processed. Through the cooperation of the tube transfer mechanism 2 and the lifting drive assembly 32, the liquid injection assembly 41, the vacuuming assembly 42 or the sealing assembly 43 can perform liquid injection, vacuuming or sealing operations on the heat pipe to be processed.
[0022] The heat pipe liquid injection and sealing device is equipped with a pipe moving mechanism 2, a lifting mechanism 3, and a liquid injection and sealing mechanism 4. The pipe moving mechanism 2 drives the heat pipe to be processed to move along the Y-axis, so that the heat pipe to be processed passes through the liquid injection component 41, the vacuuming component 42, and the sealing component 43 in sequence. This avoids the time consumed by manually transferring the heat pipe to be processed between processes and repositioning it in the existing production process, enabling seamless connection between processes and realizing the automation of heat pipe production, which can meet the needs of large-scale production. Moreover, through the cooperation of the pipe moving mechanism 2 and the lifting mechanism 3, the heat pipe to be processed is accurately positioned and stably transported, reducing positioning deviations caused by human operation errors and ensuring processing accuracy and consistency.
[0023] Specifically, the injection assembly 41 includes an injection frame 411, a positioning sleeve 412, and an injection needle 413; the injection frame 411 includes an upper limit plate 4111, a lower limit plate 4112, and two injection guide rods 4113. The two ends of the upper limit plate 4111 are respectively connected to the upper ends of the corresponding injection guide rods 4113, and the two ends of the lower limit plate 4112 are respectively connected to the lower ends of the corresponding injection guide rods 4113. The middle part of the injection guide rods 4113 is slidably mounted on the lifting plate 33; the injection guide rods 4113 are provided with a return spring 4114. The return spring 4114 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the injection guide rods 4113, and the upper end of the return spring 4114 is tightly abutted against the bottom surface of the lifting plate 33, and the lower end of the return spring 4114 is tightly abutted against the lower limit plate 4112. The positioning sleeve 412 is fixed to the middle of the lower limit plate 4112, the upper end of the injection needle 413 is fixed to the lifting plate 33, the lower end of the injection needle 413 passes through the top of the positioning sleeve 412, the size of the bottom opening of the positioning sleeve 412 is adapted to the heat pipe to be processed, and the injection needle 413 is connected to the external refrigerant input device.
[0024] When the tube transfer mechanism 2 moves the heat pipe to be processed below the liquid injection assembly 41, the lifting drive assembly 32 drives the lifting plate 33 to move downward, so that the bottom opening of the positioning sleeve 412 fits around the outer periphery of the heat pipe to be processed; as the lifting plate 33 moves downward, the lower limit plate 4112 moves upward and compresses the return spring 4114, and the liquid injection rack 411 slides upward due to the reaction force; subsequently, the external refrigerant input device inputs refrigerant into the heat pipe to be processed through the liquid injection needle 413. In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the refrigerant is deionized water. After sufficient refrigerant is injected, the lifting drive assembly 32 drives the lifting plate 33 to rise, so that the positioning sleeve 412 moves away from the heat pipe to be processed; after the return spring 4114 loses pressure, it drives the liquid injection rack 411 to return to its original position.
[0025] The positioning sleeve 412 serves a positioning function, ensuring that the injection needle 413 is aligned with the heat pipe to be processed, facilitating the injection of refrigerant into the heat pipe. The return spring 4114 serves a resetting function and also acts as a compression buffer, preventing the injection needle 413 from damaging the needle tip or crushing the heat pipe due to forced insertion. This structure ensures that the injection needle 413 can be precisely aligned and inserted into the heat pipe, guaranteeing injection accuracy.
[0026] Specifically, the vacuum assembly 42 includes a vacuum fixing base 421, a copper tube pressure plate 422, a pressure plate drive component 423, a sealing ring 424, and a pressure cover 425. The pressure cover 425 is disposed on the top of the vacuum fixing base 421, the pressure cover 425 is fixed to the bottom surface of the lifting plate 33, and the pressure cover 425 passes through the lifting plate 33 and is connected to an external vacuum device. The vacuum fixing base 421 has a vacuum chamber 4210 in the middle, and the top of the vacuum chamber 4210 has an installation groove. The pressure plate drive 423 is installed in the installation groove, and the drive end of the pressure plate drive 423 is connected to the copper tube pressure plate 422. The copper tube pressure plate 422 has a vacuum hole 4220 in the middle, and the sealing ring 424 is set on the top surface of the copper tube pressure plate 422. The sealing ring 424 has a connecting channel, which communicates with the vacuum hole 4220. The vacuum fixing base 421 and the pressure cover 425 cooperate to form a vacuum channel. The vacuum pipeline of the external vacuum device passes through the vacuum channel and communicates with the connecting channel.
[0027] When the tube transfer mechanism 2 moves the heat pipe to be processed below the vacuum chamber 4210, the lifting drive assembly 32 drives the lifting plate 33 to move downwards. Subsequently, the pressure plate drive 423 drives the copper tube pressure plate 422 to move downwards, so that the vacuum hole 4220 is tightly against the opening of the heat pipe to be processed. The external vacuum device evacuates the heat pipe to be processed through the vacuum pipeline. The air in the heat pipe to be processed enters the external vacuum device through the vacuum hole 4220, the connecting channel, and the vacuum channel in sequence, so as to maintain a sufficient vacuum degree inside the heat pipe to be processed. The sealing ring 424 prevents gas leakage, thereby ensuring the vacuum degree. The pressure cap 425 is used for connecting the external vacuum device. The copper tube pressure plate 422 is used to press the opening of the heat pipe to be processed to prevent leakage during the vacuuming process.
[0028] In one specific embodiment of this utility model, two pressure plate driving components 423 are provided, and the pressure plate driving component 423 is a cylinder; one pressure plate driving component 423 is located at the upstream end of the vacuum hole 4220, and the other pressure plate driving component 423 is located at the downstream end of the vacuum hole 4220. The two pressure plate driving components 423 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the copper tube pressure plate, and can apply forces of equal magnitude and in the same direction simultaneously to prevent local leakage caused by uneven pressure and improve the reliability of vacuum sealing.
[0029] Specifically, the sealing assembly 43 includes two sealing units, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the vacuum fixing base 421. Each sealing unit includes a sealing fixing frame 431, a sealing driving component 432, and a sealing clamping block 433. The sealing fixing frame 431 is connected to the vacuum fixing base 421. The sealing driving component 432 is fixed to the sealing fixing frame 431, and the driving end of the sealing driving component 432 is connected to the sealing clamping block 433. The sealing clamping block 433 passes through the vacuum fixing base 421 and enters the vacuum chamber 4210. The sealing clamping blocks 433 on both sides are arranged opposite to each other and form a copper tube sealing station. The position of the copper tube sealing station is adapted to the position of the vacuum hole 4220.
[0030] The copper tube sealing station is located below the vacuum hole 4220. When the vacuum level inside the heat pipe to be processed reaches the threshold, the sealing drive component 432 drives the sealing clamp 433 to insert into the vacuum chamber 4210. The two sealing clamps 433 cooperate to clamp the heat pipe to be processed. Since the heat pipe to be processed is made of copper, when the two sealing clamps 433 clamp the heat pipe to be processed, the open end of the heat pipe to be processed deforms, thereby sealing the opening of the heat pipe. After the heat pipe is sealed, the lifting drive component 32 drives the lifting plate 33 to rise. At the same time, the pressure plate drive component 423 drives the copper tube pressure plate 422 to reset, and the sealing drive component 432 drives the sealing clamp 433 to be pulled out of the vacuum chamber 4210.
[0031] The sealing bracket 431 is used to fix the sealing drive component 432, which is a cylinder.
[0032] The above structure integrates the sealing assembly 43 and the vacuuming assembly 42, resulting in a very compact spatial layout and a simpler, more rational production line layout. Furthermore, after vacuuming, the heat pipe can be sealed without being moved, reducing the likelihood of air re-entering the heat pipe and ensuring a high vacuum inside.
[0033] Specifically, the tube transfer mechanism 2 includes a tube transfer sliding plate 21, a tube transfer slide rail 22, a tube transfer sliding block 23, a copper tube support frame 24, a tube clamping assembly 25, a sliding plate transmission rod 26, and a tube transfer driving component 27; The tube transfer slide rail 22 is disposed on the operating platform 1 along the Y-axis direction; the tube transfer sliding block 23 is disposed on the bottom surface of the tube transfer sliding plate 21; the tube transfer sliding block 23 is slidably connected to the tube transfer slide rail 22; the copper tube support frame 24 is mounted on the tube transfer sliding plate 21 along the Y-axis direction, and the length of the copper tube support frame 24 is greater than the maximum translational length of the tube transfer sliding plate 21; the tube clamping assembly 25 is disposed on the top surface of the tube transfer sliding plate 21. The operating platform 1 is provided with a tube-moving clearance notch 10. The tube-moving drive component 27 is disposed on the bottom surface of the operating platform 1. The drive end of the tube-moving drive component 27 is connected to the lower end of the sliding plate transmission rod 26, and the upper end of the sliding plate transmission rod 26 is connected to the tube-moving sliding plate 21.
[0034] The tube transfer drive component 27 is a cylinder, which drives the tube transfer sliding plate 21 to move along the Y-axis direction via the sliding plate transmission rod 26. The tube transfer drive component 27 is located on the bottom surface of the tube transfer sliding plate 21 and is driven by the sliding plate transmission rod 26, reducing the overall volume of the tube transfer mechanism 2 and effectively improving space utilization. The tube transfer slide rail 22 and the tube transfer sliding block 23 can prevent the tube transfer sliding plate 21 from moving in other directions, improving the conveying accuracy of the tube transfer mechanism 2 and preventing the heat transfer tube to be processed from not being aligned with the positioning sleeve 412 or the vacuum hole 4220. The tube clamping assembly 25 is used to clamp the heat transfer tube to be processed, while the copper tube support frame 24 plays a supporting and supporting role. During the liquid injection process, the copper tube support frame 24 can cooperate with the positioning sleeve 412 to fix the heat transfer tube to be processed; during the vacuuming process, the copper tube support frame 24 presses against the heat transfer tube to be processed, preventing leakage between the copper tube pressure plate 422 and the heat transfer tube to be processed, which would lead to a decrease in vacuum. The length of the copper tube support frame 24 is greater than the maximum translation length of the tube transfer sliding plate, which ensures that the heat pipe to be processed will never leave the range of the copper tube support frame 24.
[0035] The above structure enables the heat pipe to be processed to be transported smoothly, ensuring that the heat pipe to be processed can be accurately transported below the positioning sleeve 412 or the vacuum hole 4220.
[0036] Specifically, the tube clamping assembly 25 includes two tube clamping units, one of which is located on one side of the copper tube support frame 24, and the other is located on the other side of the copper tube support frame 24. The tube clamping unit includes a clamping plate 251, a tube clamping drive component 252, a plurality of tube clamping slide rails 253, a plurality of tube clamping sliders 254, and a plurality of tube clamping strips 255. The tube clamping drive component 252 and the tube clamping slide rail 253 are respectively disposed on the tube moving sliding plate 21. A plurality of tube clamping slide rails 253 are spaced apart and are arranged along the X-axis direction. A plurality of tube clamping sliders 254 are spaced apart at the bottom of the clamping plate 251. The position and number of the tube clamping sliders 254 are adapted to the position and number of the tube clamping slide rails 253. The tube clamping sliders 254 are slidably assembled with the tube clamping slide rails 253 corresponding to their positions. The driving end of the clamping drive 252 is connected to the clamping plate 251. Several clamping strips 255 are spaced apart on one side wall of the clamping plate 251 facing the copper tube support frame 24. One end of the clamping strip 255 is connected to the clamping plate 251, and the other end of the clamping strip 255 is provided with a clamping groove. The clamping strips 255 of the clamping units on both sides are arranged opposite to each other, and the clamping grooves of the oppositely arranged clamping strips 255 cooperate to form a copper tube clamping station. The bottom surface of the clamping strip 255 is higher than the top surface of the copper tube support frame 24.
[0037] The clamping grooves cooperate to form a copper tube clamping station. When it is necessary to clamp the heat pipe to be processed, the clamping drive components 252 on both sides drive the clamping plate 251 to move to one side of the copper tube support frame 24, so that the clamping strips 255 on both sides are tightly pressed together, and the clamping grooves cooperate to form a copper tube clamping station, so as to achieve the purpose of clamping the heat pipe to be processed.
[0038] In one specific embodiment of this utility model, the tube clamping drive component 252 is a cylinder, and the tube clamping unit includes two tube clamping slide rails 253 and two tube clamping sliders 254. One tube clamping slide rail 253 is located at the upstream end of the tube clamping drive component 252, and the other tube clamping slide rail 253 is located at the downstream end of the tube clamping drive component 252. The position of the tube clamping sliders 254 is adapted to the tube clamping slide rails 253. This structure prevents the clamping plate 251 from moving in other directions, making the movement of the clamping plate 251 more stable, thereby allowing the relatively arranged clamping grooves to cooperate in clamping the heat-conducting tube to be processed.
[0039] Preferably, the spacing of the clamping strips 255 is adapted to the distance between the processing station of the liquid injection component 41 and the processing station of the vacuuming component 42.
[0040] The spacing between the clamping strips 255 is the same as the distance between the positioning sleeve 412 and the vacuum hole 4220. When the lifting drive assembly 32 moves the lifting plate 33 downward, the vacuum assembly 42 evacuates one heat-conducting pipe for processing, while the liquid injection assembly 41 injects liquid into the next heat-conducting pipe for processing. Using the above structure can improve processing efficiency.
[0041] Furthermore, the lifting drive assembly 32 includes a lifting drive component 321, a synchronous belt 322, a transmission wheel 323, and a lifting screw 324; lifting screws 324 are respectively provided on both sides of the lifting bracket 31 in the conveying direction, the lower end of the lifting screw 324 is rotatably mounted on the operating platform 1, and the upper end of the lifting screw 324 passes through the lifting bracket 31 and is equipped with the transmission wheel 323; the lifting drive component 321 is disposed on the top of the operating platform 1, and the synchronous belt 322 is sleeved on the driving end of the lifting drive component 321 and the outer periphery of the transmission wheel 323; The lifting plate 33 has transmission blocks 325 at both ends, and the transmission blocks 325 are threadedly connected to the lifting screw 324 on the corresponding side.
[0042] With the above structure, screw drive is achieved through the cooperation of lifting screw 324 and transmission block 325, thereby driving the lifting plate 33 to move along the Z-axis. The lifting drive component 321 is a motor, which drives the lifting screws 324 on both sides to rotate through synchronous belt 322, thereby enabling the two ends of the lifting plate 33 to lift synchronously. Lifting screws 324 are respectively provided on both sides of the conveying direction of the lifting bracket 31, which can reduce the swaying of the lifting plate 33 during movement.
