Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machinery, and more particularly to radiator processing equipment, especially a device for improving the efficiency and quality of radiator plug installation. Background Technology
[0002] Modular heat sinks are components used to transfer heat, typically in electronic equipment, industrial machinery, or energy systems. In existing technology, modular heat sinks employ a structure where copper tubes are inserted into aluminum components. During manufacturing, multiple copper tube holes are first extruded into the aluminum component, then copper tubes are inserted into these holes. Next, mounting holes are machined into the aluminum component using a CNC machining center. During the machining of these mounting holes, to prevent coolant from the CNC machining center from entering the copper tube holes and causing corrosion, a plug needs to be inserted into the opening of each copper tube hole. In existing technology, facing multiple copper tube holes on multiple aluminum components, these plugs must be manually pressed in one by one. This is not only inefficient, but also results in varying pressure applied each time, leading to inconsistent plug insertion amounts. This can cause the plugs to be either too tight, resulting in severe deformation, or too loose, leading to easy dislodgement. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device that improves the installation efficiency and quality of radiator plugs, thereby solving the technical problems of low plug installation efficiency and inconsistent plug insertion amounts in the prior art.
[0004] This utility model provides a device for improving the installation efficiency and quality of radiator plugs, including a base, on which a fixing block is fixedly mounted. The length direction of the fixing block is parallel to the width direction of the base. A limiting strip is fixedly connected to both ends of the fixing block on the base. The length direction of the limiting strip is parallel to the length direction of the base. A driving device is provided on one side of the limiting strip on the base. A push block is fixedly connected to the output rod of the driving device. Two parallel slide rails are provided on the base. The length direction of the slide rails is parallel to the length direction of the base. Each slide rail is provided with a slider. The two ends of the push block are respectively fixedly mounted on the sliders of the two slide rails.
[0005] Furthermore, the driving device is a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or a pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder.
[0006] Furthermore, a pressure regulating valve is installed on the compressed air pipeline of the gas-liquid booster cylinder.
[0007] Furthermore, the compressed air pipeline of the gas-liquid booster cylinder is equipped with an intake solenoid valve, the control terminal of which is electrically connected to a PLC, and the PLC is electrically connected to a time relay.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes two start buttons, and the control terminal of the drive device and the signal terminal of the start buttons are both electrically connected to a PLC.
[0009] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are positive and significant. This invention uses a driving device to drive the pressure block, simultaneously pressing multiple plugs from multiple aluminum parts into the copper tube holes, greatly improving plug installation efficiency. Furthermore, applying the same driving force to all plugs ensures uniform pressing depth, improving installation quality. During the pressurization stage, the piston rod of the gas-hydraulic booster cylinder advances slowly but with high driving force, applying a high thrust to the plugs and making the pressing process smoother.

[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. Any similar variations using the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. The use of directional terms such as up, down, front, back, left, right, middle, inside, and outside in the present invention is only for the convenience of clear description and is not intended to limit the technical solution of the present invention.
[0015] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a device for improving the installation efficiency and quality of radiator plugs, including a base 1, a fixing block 2 fixedly mounted on the base 1, the length direction of the fixing block 2 being parallel to the width direction of the base 1, a limiting strip 3 fixedly connected to both ends of the fixing block 2 on the base 1, the length direction of the limiting strip 3 being parallel to the length direction of the base 1, a driving device 4 mounted on one side of the limiting strip 3 on the base 1, a push block 5 fixedly connected to the output rod of the driving device 4, two parallel slide rails 6 mounted on the base 1, the length direction of the slide rails 6 being parallel to the length direction of the base 1, each slide rail 6 being provided with a slider 7, and the two ends of the push block 5 being fixedly mounted on the sliders 7 of the two slide rails 6 respectively.
[0016] Working principle:
[0017] During operation, multiple plugs are pre-installed into the openings of the copper tube holes of the aluminum components. The aluminum components are then arranged between the two limiting strips 3 on the base 1, with the plugs facing the push block 5. The drive device 4 is then activated, and its output rod moves the push block 5 to the right along the slide rail 6, simultaneously pressing the plugs into the copper tube holes. The fixing block 2 and the limiting strips 3 provide support for the aluminum components. This invention, by driving the push block 5 with the drive device 4, simultaneously presses multiple plugs from multiple aluminum components into the copper tube holes, greatly improving plug installation efficiency. Furthermore, applying the same driving force to all plugs ensures uniform pressing depth, thus improving the quality of plug installation.
[0018] Furthermore, the driving device 4 is a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or a pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder.
[0019] The pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder is a composite actuator that combines the advantages of pneumatic rapid movement and hydraulic high-pressure output. It comprises a pneumatic drive chamber and a hydraulic booster chamber. Its working principle is based on Pascal's principle, converting low-pressure compressed air into proportionally high-pressure hydraulic oil output to drive the piston rod.
[0020] The working process of the gas-liquid booster cylinder is as follows:
[0021] Rapid pre-advance stage: Compressed air drives the large-area piston on the piston rod in the pneumatic drive chamber, causing the piston rod to drive the push block 5 forward rapidly until the push block 5 contacts the plug.
[0022] Pressurization and installation stage: When push block 5 encounters resistance upon contact with the plug, the air pressure rises, triggering the internal pressurization valve to switch to pushing the small-area hydraulic plunger, generating extremely high thrust amplified by a fixed pressurization ratio. During this stage, the piston rod advances slowly but with high driving force, thereby applying a high thrust to the plug and making the plug insertion process smoother.
[0023] Rapid return phase: After press-fitting is completed, the air circuit is switched, all components are reset, and the piston rod retracts rapidly.
[0024] Furthermore, a pressure regulating valve 8 is installed on the compressed air pipeline of the gas-liquid booster cylinder.
[0025] The pressure regulating valve 8 can adjust the driving air pressure supplied to the pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder. Since the boosting ratio of the pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder is a fixed value, the final output thrust is linearly related to the set driving air pressure. Setting a suitable driving air pressure can ensure that the output force is sufficient to press the plug into the copper tube hole, while preventing excessive pressure, ensuring a smooth and uniform pressing process, preventing product deformation, and improving product quality.
[0026] Furthermore, the compressed air pipeline of the gas-liquid booster cylinder is equipped with an intake solenoid valve, the control terminal of which is electrically connected to a PLC, and the PLC is electrically connected to a time relay.
[0027] During the return phase of the gas-liquid booster cylinder, the intake solenoid valve is delayed by a time relay, which delays the switching of the air path. This prevents the piston rod from retracting quickly and instead keeps it in place for several seconds to maintain pressure on the plug before retracting. This improves the pressure fitting effect on the plug.
[0028] Furthermore, it also includes two start buttons 9. The control terminal of the drive device 4 and the signal terminal of the start buttons 9 are both electrically connected to a PLC. Both start buttons 9 must be pressed simultaneously with both hands for the PLC to start the drive device 4, thus improving operational safety.
[0029] Specifically, the specific structure and principle of the cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, air-liquid booster cylinder, and start button 9 in this utility model, as well as other aspects not described in detail, all adopt well-known solutions in the prior art, which are understood and implemented by those skilled in the art, and will not be elaborated here.
