Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat dissipation technology for distribution boxes, specifically a cooling system for distribution boxes. Background Technology
[0002] As the core equipment for power distribution, the electrical components inside the distribution box generate a lot of heat during operation. Traditional distribution boxes usually rely on natural heat dissipation or simple fans for cooling, but in high-temperature environments or under high loads, the heat dissipation efficiency is insufficient, which can easily lead to component aging, failure, or even safety accidents.
[0003] Therefore, a high-efficiency heat dissipation cooling system for electrical distribution boxes needs to be designed. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems of existing technologies, this utility model provides a power distribution box cooling system, comprising: Inner box and outer box; The inner enclosure is used to install the required electrical components. The inner enclosure is installed inside the outer enclosure with a gap between them. Fans are provided at the bottom and top of the outer enclosure. Wind deflectors are spaced apart on the inner wall of the outer casing; The wind deflector is spaced apart on the outer wall of the inner box, and the wind deflectors at the same level are located directly below the wind deflector. An air inlet is provided at the connection point between the air guide plate and the inner box.
[0005] Furthermore, the inner casing is made of copper and carbon fiber alloy, and its outer surface is provided with heat sinks at intervals. The heat sinks are parallel to the top of the inner casing and are located between adjacent air inlets.
[0006] Furthermore, the wind deflector is inclined downward and has a ring structure, and a slit is left between the wind deflector and the inner box, the slit being between 3mm and 5mm.
[0007] Furthermore, the air guide plate is inclined upward, and the inclination angle is the same as the downward inclination angle of the wind baffle, both being between 30° and 45°. A narrow gap, between 2mm and 4mm, is left between the air guide plate and the outer casing. The air inlet is horizontally set and its width is between 4mm and 6mm.
[0008] Furthermore, the fan is an axial flow fan, with the bottom fan used to draw outside air into the outer casing and the top fan used to draw air from the inner and outer casings to the outside.
[0009] Furthermore, the heat sink has a trapezoidal cross-section, and the end of the heat sink away from the inner casing has a rounded corner.
[0010] Furthermore, a temperature sensor is installed inside the inner casing, and both the temperature sensor and the fan are connected to an external controller. The controller is used to adjust the fan speed according to the real-time temperature inside the inner casing.
[0011] Furthermore, both the wind deflector and the air guide plate are made of aluminum alloy and are coated with a heat dissipation coating with a thickness of 0.1mm-0.3mm.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: This application utilizes a double-layered layout of inner and outer casings, combined with an axial flow fan that draws air in from the bottom and exhausts it from the top, to form a forced convection channel from top to bottom. Furthermore, a downward-sloping annular baffle and an upward-sloping air guide plate guide the outside cold air to flow orderly along the outer wall of the inner casing. The air first enters through the bottom of the outer casing, is guided upwards by the air guide plate to the outer wall of the inner casing, and then is constrained by the annular baffle to prevent dissipation. Finally, it is exhausted by the top fan. Simultaneously, the air inlet at the connection point between the air guide plate and the inner casing further guides the airflow to contact the inner wall of the inner casing, forming a dual airflow path of external circumferential flow and internal contact flow. This solves the problems of turbulent airflow and heat dissipation dead zones in traditional systems, significantly improving heat dissipation efficiency compared to traditional simple fan structures.
