Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooler technology, specifically to a high-efficiency air-water cooler. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production, power transmission, refrigeration and air conditioning, a large amount of waste heat is generated during equipment operation. If it cannot be cooled in a timely and effective manner, it will lead to a decrease in system efficiency, a shortened equipment life, or even a safety accident. Therefore, cooling equipment is a key component to ensure the stable operation of various industrial systems.
[0003] Traditional cooling equipment has gradually revealed numerous limitations in long-term use. Regarding cooling efficiency, some natural ventilation cooling systems rely on ambient wind for heat exchange, making them significantly affected by natural conditions. When the ambient temperature is high or the wind speed is low, the cooling capacity decreases drastically, making it difficult to meet the cooling demands under high-load conditions. While some water-cooled coolers transfer heat through water, their heat exchange efficiency is easily reduced due to scale buildup and uneven water distribution, requiring continuous replenishment of cooling water, which limits their application in water-scarce regions. Furthermore, traditional cooling equipment is often designed as a single unit, with internal piping and heat exchange components fixed to the shell. When equipment malfunctions and requires maintenance or component replacement due to aging, disassembly of the entire unit is often necessary, which is not only cumbersome but also leads to prolonged downtime, severely impacting the continuity of industrial production. Utility Model Content
[0004] The present invention aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art by providing a high-efficiency air-water cooler.
[0005] The specific technical solution is as follows: A high-efficiency air-water cooler includes: a base plate, with legs fixedly installed on both sides of the base plate, a ventilation mechanism on the top of the base plate, and a protective component on the top of the ventilation mechanism; a heat dissipation mechanism movably inserted into the inner wall of the sealed box; and a water supply mechanism on one side of the heat dissipation mechanism.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the ventilation mechanism includes a sealed box, a side plate, and an air outlet. The sealed box is threaded onto the top of the base plate, and the two sides of the sealed box are fixedly installed with the side plate. An air outlet is provided on the surface of the side plate. In this embodiment, the combined use of the sealed box, the side plate, and the air outlet can provide a sealed space for the fan assembly, allowing air to circulate only along specific locations, thereby making it more portable and efficient to remove heat.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the protective component includes an upper cover plate and a protective mesh. The upper cover plate is threadedly installed on the top of the sealed box, and the protective mesh is threadedly installed on the top of the upper cover plate. In this embodiment, the cooperation between the upper cover plate and the protective mesh can protect the top of the sealed box to prevent impurities or foreign objects from entering the sealed box during the operation of the fan assembly and affecting heat dissipation.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the heat dissipation mechanism includes a water collection tank, a heat-conducting plate, and heat dissipation fins. The water collection tank is movably inserted into the inner wall of the sealed box. Two sets of heat-conducting plates are provided, and the two sets of heat-conducting plates are threadedly installed on the top and bottom of the water collection tank. The heat dissipation fins are fixedly installed on the side of the heat-conducting plate away from the water collection tank. In this embodiment, the combined use of the water collection tank, heat-conducting plate, and heat dissipation fins can cool the water through the contact between the heat-conducting plate and the heat dissipation fins and the air. At the same time, the cooling efficiency can be further improved by the airflow of the fan assembly.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the water supply mechanism includes a water supply pipe, a flange, and an expansion valve. Two sets of water supply pipes are provided, connected to one side of the water collection chamber. The side of the water supply pipe furthest from the water collection chamber is fixedly installed with the flange. One set of water supply pipes, closer to the water collection chamber, is fixedly installed with the expansion valve. In this design, the water supply pipes allow water to flow normally into the water collection chamber. The flange facilitates connection between the water pipe and the water supply pipe, and is also more compatible with various types of water pipes available on the market. The expansion valve expands the water supplied by the water supply pipe and sprays it into the water collection chamber, thus dissipating most of the heat during the spraying process and improving cooling efficiency.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a fan assembly is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the upper cover plate. Two sets of fan assemblies are provided, and the two sets of fan assemblies are horizontally distributed on the inner wall of the upper cover plate. The fan assembly is located below the protective mesh. In this embodiment, the fan assembly can absorb air and blow the air towards the heat dissipation fins, so that the heat dissipation fins can come into contact with more air in a short time, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the heat dissipation fins.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the water collection tank is made of stainless steel. Stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, which can prevent the water collection tank from rusting during long-term contact with water. At the same time, stainless steel also has good thermal conductivity, which can improve auxiliary heat dissipation.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the water supply pipe has a built-in filter screen. The filter screen in this embodiment can prevent impurities in the water from entering the expansion valve and causing blockage, thus ensuring that the expansion valve can be used for a long time.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. The high-efficiency air-water cooler provided by this utility model, through the setting of a sealed box, side plate, air outlet, top cover plate and protective mesh, enables the sealing box, side plate and air outlet to provide a sealed space for the fan assembly, so that air can only circulate along specific positions, thereby carrying away heat more conveniently and efficiently. The combination of the top cover plate and protective mesh can protect the top of the sealed box to prevent impurities or foreign objects from entering the sealed box during the operation of the fan assembly and affecting heat dissipation.
[0014] 2. The high-efficiency air-water cooler provided by this utility model, through the arrangement of a water collection tank, heat conduction plate, heat dissipation fins, water supply pipe, flange, and expansion valve, enables the water to be cooled by contact between the heat conduction plate and heat dissipation fins and the air. At the same time, the cooling efficiency can be further improved by the air force of the fan assembly. The water supply pipe allows water to flow normally into the water collection tank. The flange makes it convenient for users to connect the water pipe to the water supply pipe. At the same time, the flange is more compatible with various water pipes on the market. The expansion valve can spray the water delivered by the water supply pipe into the water collection tank after expansion, so that most of the heat can be dissipated during the spraying process, thereby improving the cooling efficiency.

Figures 1-5As shown, it includes: a base plate 1, with support legs 2 fixedly installed on both sides of the base plate 1, a ventilation mechanism 3 on the top of the base plate 1, and a protective component 4 on the top of the ventilation mechanism 3; a heat dissipation mechanism 5 movably inserted into the inner wall of the sealed box 31; a water supply mechanism 6 on one side of the heat dissipation mechanism 5; the ventilation mechanism 3 includes a sealed box 31, side plates 32, and an air outlet 33, the sealed box 31 is threaded onto the top of the base plate 1, the two sides of the sealed box 31 are fixedly installed with the side plates 32, and the surface of the side plates 32 has an air outlet 33; the protective component 4 includes an upper cover plate 41 and a protective mesh 42, the upper cover plate 41 is threaded onto the top of the sealed box 31, and the protective mesh 42 is threaded onto the top of the upper cover plate 41; the heat dissipation mechanism 5 includes a water collection tank 51, a heat conduction plate 52, and heat dissipation fins 53, the water collection tank 51 is movably inserted into the sealed box 31. The inner wall has two sets of heat-conducting plates 52, which are threaded onto the top and bottom of the water collection tank 51. The heat dissipation fins 53 are fixedly installed on the side of the heat-conducting plates 52 away from the water collection tank 51. The water supply mechanism 6 includes a water supply pipe 61, a flange 62, and an expansion valve 63. There are two sets of water supply pipes 61, which are connected to one side of the water collection tank 51. The side of the water supply pipe 61 away from the water collection tank 51 is fixedly installed with the flange 62. One end of the water supply pipe 61 near the water collection tank 51 is fixedly installed with the expansion valve 63.

There are two sets of fan assemblies 70, which are horizontally distributed on the inner wall of the upper cover plate 41. The fan assembly 70 is located below the protective mesh 42. The water collection tank 51 is made of stainless steel, and the water supply pipe 61 has a built-in filter screen.
[0022] In summary, the high-efficiency air-water cooler provided in this embodiment has the following advantages: the combined use of the sealed box 31, side plate 32, and air outlet 33 provides a sealed space for the fan assembly 70, allowing air to circulate only along specific locations, thus enabling more portable and efficient heat removal; the combined use of the top cover 41 and protective mesh 42 protects the top of the sealed box 31, preventing impurities or foreign objects from entering the sealed box 31 during operation and affecting heat dissipation; the combined use of the water collection tank 51, heat-conducting plate 52, and heat dissipation fins 53 cools the water through contact between the heat-conducting plate 52 and the heat dissipation fins 53 and the air, while the airflow from the fan assembly 70 further improves cooling efficiency; the water pipe 61 allows water to flow normally into the water collection tank 51; and the flange 62 allows for...

Then, the two sets of heat conduction plates 52 will absorb the heat of the water droplets and transfer it to the heat dissipation fins 53, so that the heat can be dissipated through contact with the air. At the same time, the user can start the fan assembly 70 to force the outside air into the upper cover plate 41 and the sealed box 31 to improve the air flow and thus accelerate the cooling speed of the liquid to achieve a high-efficiency cooling effect.
