It optimizes fluid flow and heat exchange by mimicking efficient branching systems in nature. To improve the delivery efficiency of the condenser, a bifurcation channel structure is required.
[0003] Compared to existing condenser flow channel structures, the following defects exist: conventional condensers mostly use a single channel to transport gas or liquid, which greatly reduces their heat exchange efficiency, making it difficult to quickly dissipate the heat of the gas or liquid. At the same time, the single-channel transport structure easily leads to a reduction in the transport flow rate of gas or liquid. Utility Model Content

At the same time, the single-channel transport structure easily reduces the flow rate of gas or liquid.
[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A bifurcation channel structure for a condenser includes: a protective shell, a bottom support block for stably supporting a condenser tube provided on the inner side of the protective shell, a manifold box located inside the protective shell on the lower right side of the condenser tube, a discharge pipe connected to the protective shell provided on the right end of the manifold box, a protective top cover fixedly connected to an inlet pipe provided on the upper part of the protective shell, and a branch box located at the upper end of the condenser tube at the lower end of the inlet pipe.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Example 1 Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, this utility model is a branched flow channel structure for a condenser, including a protective shell 1. The inner side of the protective shell 1 is provided with a bottom support block 4 that can stably support the condenser tube 5. The lower right end of the condenser tube 5 is provided with a manifold box 6 located inside the protective shell 1. The right end of the manifold box 6 is provided with a discharge pipe 7 connected to the protective shell 1. The upper part of the protective shell 1 is provided with a protective top cover 2 that is fixedly connected to the feed pipe 15. The lower end of the feed pipe 15 is provided with a branch box 10 located at the upper end of the condenser tube 5.
[0020] In this embodiment, preferably, the longitudinal section of the bottom receiving block 4 is arranged in a "U" shape, and the bottom receiving blocks 4 are equidistantly distributed and installed on the lower side inside the protective shell 1 and are fitted to the lower surface of the condenser pipe 5.
[0021] In this embodiment, preferably, the inner corner of the manifold 6 is arc-shaped, the right end of the manifold 6 is connected to the discharge pipe 7 that passes through the protective shell 1, and a solenoid valve 8 is provided in the middle of the discharge pipe 7.
[0022] In summary, firstly, the three-part condenser tubes 5 are placed inside the protective housing 1 and mounted above the bottom receiving block 4, ensuring the condenser tubes 5 are stably installed within the protective housing 1. The arc-shaped bottom receiving block 4 is used to connect with the lower end of the condenser tubes 5, thereby improving the stability of the condenser tubes 5. Then, the right end of the condenser tubes 5 is connected to the manifold box 6, and the upper end of the condenser tubes 5 is connected to the feed pipe 15. When this structure is needed, gas or liquid is input from the feed pipe 15. At this time, the gas or liquid will be divided into three parts by the distribution box 10 and delivered into the condenser tubes 5, allowing the gas or liquid to circulate in a dispersed manner. After the heat is dissipated by the three-part condenser tubes 5, it converges into the distribution box 6. Before this, the connecting flange 9 is connected to the discharge pipe. Finally, when the solenoid valve 8 is opened, the gas or liquid can be discharged in a unified and controlled manner.
[0023] Example 2 This embodiment is obtained based on Embodiment 1, with reference to... Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown in the second embodiment of the present invention, a flow divider box 10 is provided on the upper left side of the condenser tube 5, and a connecting pipe 11 is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper end of the flow divider box 10. The inner side of the flow divider box 10 has three-channel cavities.
[0024] In this embodiment, preferably, a damping spring 12 connected to the limiting movable block 13 is provided on the inner side of the docking pipe 11, and the limiting movable block 13 forms an elastic telescopic movement in the docking pipe 11 through the damping spring 12.
[0025] In this embodiment, preferably, the upper and lower sides of the inner end of the limiting movable block 13 are inclined to guide the positioning pin 17 to slide.
[0026] In this embodiment, preferably, an arc-shaped limiting groove 14 is provided on the inner side of the limiting movable block 13, and the limiting movable block 13 is engaged with the positioning pin 17 through the limiting groove 14.
[0027] In this embodiment, preferably, the upper inner wall of the docking pipe 11 is fitted and snapped together with the rubber seal 16 provided on the lower inner side of the feed pipe 15, and the feed pipe 15 passes through the left inner side of the protective top cover 2.
[0028] In summary, in conjunction with Embodiment 1, an annular rubber seal 16 with an inclined lower end is provided on the inner side of the lower end of the feed pipe 15. When installing the docking pipe 11, the feed pipe 15 can be docked and sealed with the docking pipe 11 through the rubber seal 16 to prevent gas or liquid leakage. At this time, the positioning pins 17 installed at equal intervals at the lower end of the feed pipe 15 will penetrate the inner side of the docking pipe 11 and engage with the limiting movable block 13, so that the gas or liquid transported in the feed pipe 15 can be divided and transported in three equal parts under the action of the diversion box 10.
[0029] The limiting movable block 13 forms a locking sliding structure inside the docking pipe 11 via a damping spring 12. A limiting slot 14 is provided on the inner side of the limiting movable block 13 to engage with the positioning pin 17. The upper and lower sides of the inner end of the limiting movable block 13 are inclined. When the positioning pin 17 penetrates the docking pipe 11, it will be guided by the positioning pin 17 due to the inclined inner side of the limiting movable block 13. At this time, the limiting movable block 13 will reciprocate under the elastic potential energy of the damping spring 12. The locating pin 17 engages with the limiting slot 14 on the inner side of the limiting movable block 13, thereby improving the connection stability between the connecting pipe 11 and the feed pipe 15. When the condenser pipe 5 needs to be disassembled later, the protective top cover 2 and the feed pipe 15 can be pulled upward by unscrewing the bolt 3 that runs through the threaded connection between the protective top cover 2 and the protective outer shell 1, so that the locating pin 17 is disengaged from the limiting movable block 13, making it easy to remove the condenser pipe 5 as a whole for cleaning and other operations.
[0030] Example 3 This embodiment is obtained by combining Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2.
[0031] The above method achieves rapid cooling by dividing the gas or liquid into three equal parts. The divided gas or liquid is then recombined and discharged in a controlled manner through solenoid valve 8, thereby improving the efficiency of the structure.
[0032] The above description provides a detailed account of one embodiment of the present invention. However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
