Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat dissipation pipes, and in particular to a multi-channel reinforced heat dissipation pipe. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of technology, in manufacturing industries such as automobile manufacturing, non-road machinery, new energy, power batteries, energy storage power generation, and big data centers, power or control systems must maintain stable and reliable performance and service life, and continue to operate normally. This places increasingly higher demands on their heat transfer systems, including heat dissipation, heat exchange, and refrigeration, requiring higher heat dissipation efficiency and pressure resistance from radiators. As crucial heat-conducting components in heat transfer systems such as radiators, heat exchangers, air conditioning condensers, and evaporators, heat pipes face significant challenges in terms of pressure resistance and heat exchange efficiency.
[0003] Traditional and existing heat pipes have the following drawbacks: ① Some heat dissipation pipe channels have thinner ends (e.g.) Figure 11 As shown in the figure, the strength is not high. After the heat pipe is brazed with the main plate, it is subjected to a large pressure and is very easy to deform or even crack and leak, resulting in reduced heat dissipation and heat conduction efficiency. In severe cases, the entire heat dissipation system may even fail.
[0004] ② Some heat dissipation pipes undergo repeated folding and compression of the material to form internal partitions in order to increase strength. However, excessive compression after folding causes the material itself to generate stress that is difficult to release, or the material to crack. Furthermore, each fold has a butt joint (e.g., Figure 12 As shown in the figure, there is a high risk of incomplete soldering during the brazing process.
[0005] ③ Some heat pipes are overlapping heat pipes (such as...) Figure 13 As shown, the heat pipe is made up of two heat pipe fins overlapping each other. The channel cross-section is formed by the material overlapping at both ends. The middle of the outer edge of the heat pipe is formed by multiple bending and extrusion of the material to form an internal partition. Then it is assembled and brazed. There are many gaps between the joints, and the surface at the overlapping ends is not complete. It is easy to produce false welds in the overlapping gaps, which can cause leakage and vibration failure. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a multi-channel reinforced heat dissipation pipe, the technical solution of which is as follows: The heat pipe consists of section I and section II, and there is only one joint between section I and section II; In section I, section I consists of an inner bend and a pipe wall. The inner bend includes inner bend I and at least one inner bend II. Inner bend I is tightly fitted to the pipe wall, and the tail of inner bend I is connected to the end of inner bend II. Several inner bends II are connected end to end, and the rear end face of the corner of each inner bend II is fitted to the pipe wall. The tail of the end inner bend II is connected to the end of the left bend, and the tail of the left bend is connected to the end of the pipe wall. In section II, the end of the pipe wall is connected to the end of the right bend, the tail of the right bend is connected to the end of the inner bend II at the beginning of section II, and several inner bends II in section II are connected end to end, and the front face of the corner of each inner bend II is in contact with the pipe wall; the tail of the end inner bend II is connected to the end of inner bend I, and inner bend I is in close contact with the pipe wall.
[0007] Furthermore, the heat dissipation pipe is integrally formed, with its entire structure beginning at the inner bend I of section I and ending at the inner bend I of section II.
[0008] Furthermore, the inner bend I can be arc-shaped, square, with an inner fold, or polygonal.
[0009] Furthermore, the shape of the joint between the pipe wall and the inner bend I is the same.
[0010] Furthermore, each inner bend II consists of crests and troughs, with the crests and troughs closely fitted to the adjacent pipe wall, and the contact surfaces being point contact or surface contact.
[0011] Furthermore, the interface between the crest and trough of the inner bend II can be a smooth surface, a perforated surface, a corrugated surface, or a windowed surface.
[0012] Furthermore, the heat dissipation pipe section I and section II have the same forming structure, and their shapes can be symmetrical or asymmetrical.
[0013] Furthermore, the joint is a bend I, which consists of a left bend and a right bend, with the wide surface of the left bend closely fitting the wide surface of the right bend.
[0014] Furthermore, the bonding involves the materials being tightly bonded together, forming a sealed state after brazing.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model is a multi-channel reinforced heat dissipation pipe. The heat dissipation pipe has only one butt joint in its cross-section. The inside of the heat dissipation pipe has several internal bends, which form multiple channels, enhancing pressure resistance, changing internal resistance, and improving efficient heat conduction.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] As shown in the figure, this utility model is a multi-channel reinforced heat dissipation pipe. The heat dissipation pipe 1 is made of a single piece of material and is formed by multiple bending. It includes section I and section II. There is only one butt joint between section I and section II, namely the bending part I2.
[0018] The forming structure of interval I and interval II is the same, and the shape can be symmetrical or asymmetrical. The following examples use the symmetrical form as an example. Example 1
[0019] This embodiment takes the contact between the inner bend and the pipe wall as an example.
[0020] 1. In interval I, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown: Section I consists of an inner bend and a pipe wall. The inner bend is composed of inner bend I3 and multiple inner bends II (in this embodiment, inner bend II is composed of inner bend II4 and inner bend III5). Multiple inner bends form multiple channels for efficient heat conduction. The pipe wall includes an upper pipe wall 7, a pipe wall arc surface 10, and a lower pipe wall 8.
[0021] The inner bend I3 is arc-shaped, with its upper surface at the beginning fitting against the inner wall of the upper pipe wall, the arc surface of the inner bend I3 fitting against the arc surface 10 of the pipe wall, and the lower surface of the tail of the inner bend I3 fitting against the lower pipe wall 8.
[0022] After the tail of the inner bend I3 is connected to the head of the inner bend II4, it bends upward, and the upper plane of the tail of the inner bend II4 is in contact with the inner wall of the upper pipe 7.
[0023] The tail of inner bend II4 connects to the head of inner bend III5 and then bends downward. The lower plane of the tail of inner bend III5 fits against the inner wall of the lower pipe wall 8. The connecting surface between the crest and trough of inner bend II can be a smooth surface, a perforated surface, a corrugated surface, or a windowed surface, etc. The connecting surface is not limited to the above forms and can be of various forms.
[0024] The end of the inner bend III5 connects to the lower end of the left bend and then bends upwards. The end of the left bend 6 connects to the right side of the upper pipe wall.
[0025] 2. In interval II, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown: The lower pipe wall of section I extends to the lower pipe wall of section II and is integrally connected; The lower pipe wall, the arc surface of the pipe wall, and the upper pipe wall of section II are integrally connected. The end of the upper pipe wall is connected to the beginning of the right bend 9 and then bends downward. The tail of the right bend is connected to the beginning of the inner bend III5. The lower plane of the beginning of the inner bend III5 is in contact with the inner wall of the lower pipe wall 8. The tail of the inner bend III5 bends upward and connects with the beginning of the inner bend II4. The upper plane of the beginning of the inner bend is in contact with the inner wall of the upper pipe wall 7. The tail of the inner bend II4 bends downward and connects with the beginning of the inner bend I3. The lower plane of the beginning of the inner bend I3 is in contact with the lower pipe wall. The arc surface of the inner bend I3 is in contact with the arc surface of the pipe wall of section II. The upper plane of the end of the inner bend I3 is in contact with the inner wall of the upper pipe wall.
[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, the left and right bends are tightly fitted together to form a butt joint, i.e., the bend I2. In this embodiment, all mating surfaces are connected with zero gaps and are brazed to form a closed state. Example 2
[0027] like Figure 7 As shown in the diagram, this embodiment uses a multi-fold composite single-seam butt joint structure as an example. Compared with Embodiment 1, the first and last planes of the inner bend are both in contact with the pipe wall, and the left and right bends are the same as in Embodiment 1. The difference from Embodiment 1 is that the inner bends I3 at both ends of this embodiment have opposite shapes to those in Embodiment 1, and the number of inner bends II is increased.
[0028] exist Figure 7 In this process, depending on the situation, the internal bends and multiple folds can be combined and made into point contacts with the pipe wall, such as... Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown. Inner bends II4 and III5... (multiple inner bends II can be added depending on the actual situation). The first or last end of each bend is in point contact with the inner wall of the pipe, with zero gap fitting, and a closed state is formed after brazing. Example 3
[0029] like Figure 10 As shown, with Figure 7 In contrast, the inner bend I3 has a multi-layered inner bend shape, and the shape of its pipe wall arc surface 10 is the same as that of the inner bend I3. Depending on the actual situation, the shape of the inner bend I3 can be changed to a square, arc, or polygon, and the shape of the inner bend II can be the same as... Figure 8 and Figure 9 They have the same shape.
[0030] Taking a tubular cross-section length of 32 as an example, this patent differs from existing technologies (such as...). Figures 11-13 Compared to (as shown), the pressure-bearing strength of heat pipes with different structures is compared, such as Figures 14-16As shown, this invention significantly improves the first-time welding qualification rate compared to existing technologies for the same tube type, effectively improving product quality and reducing production costs. It also enhances the product's pressure resistance, with a burst pressure value far exceeding that of existing heat dissipation tubes. This provides better protection for the safety and stability of heat transfer systems such as heat dissipation, heat exchange, and refrigeration. Experimental results verify that its thermal conductivity is also significantly improved, allowing for a more compact design of the radiator and heat exchanger core, achieving material savings, cost reduction, and energy efficiency.
[0031] This invention relates to a multi-channel reinforced heat dissipation pipe. The heat dissipation pipe has only one butt joint and contains several internal bends, forming multiple channels for efficient heat conduction. The internal bends at both ends of the heat dissipation pipe cross-section are flush with the pipe wall, increasing the strength of the windward side. All internal bends are welded to the inner wall of the pipe, enhancing the overall thickness. After brazing with the main plate, the pressure resistance at both ends increases, making the overall structure less prone to deformation and improving pressure resistance and heat dissipation. The heat dissipation pipe has only one butt joint at its outer edge, resulting in fewer weld points, a high first-time welding success rate, reduced leakage probability, and reduced risk of vibration-induced failure.
