Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water-cooled radiator technology, specifically a computer chassis radiator with a side-mounted refrigerant connection port. Background Technology

[0002] A water-cooled radiator is a device that uses a forced-circulation refrigerant to flow between heat-generating and heat-dissipating components. By utilizing the high thermal conductivity of the refrigerant, it effectively solves the problem of heat buildup in the heat-generating components.

[0003] A search revealed a patent with publication number CN220305775U, which discloses a side-mounted water-cooling radiator. This radiator includes a first and second water tank positioned opposite each other, and multiple heat dissipation pipes located between the first and second water tanks. A liquid flow channel is provided on one side between the first and second water tanks, with both ends connected to the first and second water tanks respectively. The liquid flow channel has an inlet and an outlet, and a baffle is provided between the inlet and outlet to achieve unidirectional circulation of the liquid within the radiator. This side-mounted circulation interface of the radiator makes it suitable for installation in most computer cases on the market, reducing the installation difficulty and path length between the radiator and the cooling block.

[0004] However, research revealed that in actual use, the refrigerant enters from one end of the radiator and exits from the other end. This results in a short refrigerant flow path within the radiator. Additionally, the size of the refrigerant interface further reduces the net flow rate in and out of the radiator, leading to a slower refrigerant movement speed and poor overall cooling performance. Therefore, a computer chassis radiator with a side-mounted refrigerant connection port is specifically designed for this purpose. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a computer chassis radiator with a side-mounted refrigerant connection port, comprising a radiator body, with a first return channel and a second return channel respectively installed at both ends of the radiator body, and a refrigerant circulation connection mechanism installed between the first return channel and the second return channel, the refrigerant circulation connection mechanism comprising two sets of refrigerant connectors fixedly disposed on the side of the radiator body, a separator being provided inside the first return channel, the separator dividing one end of the radiator body so that the radiator body is divided into a first channel and a second channel, the ends of the first channel and the second channel away from the separator being connected to the second return channel, and the other ends of the first channel and the second channel being connected to the two sets of refrigerant connectors respectively.

[0011] Preferably, a fixing member is installed between the first return channel and the second return channel, and the refrigerant connector is disposed on the fixing member.

[0012] Preferably, the fixing component includes a fixing box and a fixing plate, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the radiator body, and the opposite sides of the fixing box and the fixing plate are bent inward at 90 degrees to form a fixing part for clamping the radiator body.

[0013] Preferably, the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe are disposed through the fixed box, and both sets of refrigerant connectors are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fixed box.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] This application provides a computer chassis radiator with a side-mounted refrigerant connection port, which solves the problem of poor circulating heat dissipation in the side-access water cooling radiator described in the existing publication number CN220305775U.

[0024] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0025] This utility model discloses a computer chassis radiator with a side-mounted refrigerant connection port.

[0026] According to the appendix Figure 1-3 As shown, the device includes a radiator body 1, with a first return channel 2 and a second return channel 3 installed at both ends of the radiator body 1. A refrigerant circulation connection mechanism 5 is installed between the first return channel 2 and the second return channel 3. The refrigerant circulation connection mechanism 5 includes two sets of refrigerant connectors 51 fixedly installed on the side of the radiator body 1. A separator 52 is provided inside the first return channel 2. The separator 52 divides one end of the radiator body 1, so that the radiator body 1 is divided into a first channel 101 and a second channel 102. The ends of the first channel 101 and the second channel 102 away from the separator 52 are connected to the second return channel 3. The other ends of the first channel 101 and the second channel 102 are connected to the two sets of refrigerant connectors 51 respectively.

[0027] The main body of the radiator 1 includes multiple cold water pipes 11, and heat dissipation fins 12 are respectively provided between the multiple cold water pipes 11. The cold water pipes 11 are flat pipes, and the two ends of the cold water pipes 11 are connected to the first return channel 2 and the second return channel 3 respectively, so that the refrigerant can exchange heat with the heat dissipation fins 12 when flowing through the cold water pipes 11.

[0028] The separator 52 is J-shaped and divides the interior of the first return channel 2 into two independent chambers. The first channel 101 and the second channel 102 are respectively connected to the two chambers.

[0029] Two sets of refrigerant connectors 51 are respectively connected to the two chambers by a first connecting pipe 53 and a second connecting pipe 54. A fixing member 4 is installed between the first return channel 2 and the second return channel 3, and the refrigerant connector 51 is set on the fixing member 4.

[0030] The fastener 4 includes a fixing box 41 and a fixing plate 42. The fixing box 41 and the fixing plate 42 are respectively disposed on both sides of the radiator body 1, and the opposite sides of the fixing box 41 and the fixing plate 42 are bent inward by 90 degrees to form a fixing part 45 for clamping the radiator body 1, thereby fixing the entire radiator body 1.

[0031] The first connecting pipe 53 and the second connecting pipe 54 are disposed through the fixed box 41, and both sets of refrigerant connectors 51 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fixed box 41, so that the first connecting pipe 53 and the second connecting pipe 54 are wrapped and protected.

[0032] Both ends of the fixed box 41 and the fixed plate 42 are fixedly provided with sealing plates 43. The sealing plates 43 are fixedly welded to both ends of the first return channel 2 and the second return channel 3, thereby achieving sealing of the ends of the first return channel 2 and the second return channel 3.

[0033] A set of sealing plates 43 is detachably equipped with a refrigerant charging plug 44. The refrigerant charging plug 44 can be installed by a threaded connection so that refrigerant can be added into the entire radiator body 1 by removing the refrigerant charging plug 44 during use.

[0034] Working principle: When in use, the device uses a separator to divide the entire radiator body into two parts, forming a first channel 101 and a second channel 102. The refrigerant enters through a set of refrigerant connectors 51, then enters the first channel 101 through the first connecting pipe 53, then enters the second return channel 3, and then returns through the second channel 102 into the second connecting pipe 54, and finally exits from the other set of refrigerant connectors 51. This reduces the refrigerant flow rate by half when it flows through the radiator body 1, while doubling the overall flow path, making the refrigerant exchange heat with the heat dissipation fins 12 more efficiently, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0035] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
