Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radiator technology, specifically an automotive radiator. Background Technology

[0002] The automotive radiator is a core component of the automotive cooling system, primarily used for dissipating engine heat. It consists of an inlet chamber, an outlet chamber, a radiator core, and inlet / outlet pipes, and is mainly made of aluminum alloy (accounting for over 80%), with copper being more commonly used in commercial vehicles. Based on the coolant flow direction, it can be divided into longitudinal flow and crossflow types. The core structure mainly includes tube-plate, tube-strip, and plate types, with the tube-strip type offering 12% more heat dissipation area than the tube-plate type. Its working principle involves a water pump driving coolant circulation, which exchanges heat with the air through thin-walled pipes in the radiator core, and precise temperature control is achieved in conjunction with components such as a fan and thermostat.

[0003] Patent CN223376453U discloses an automotive radiator, including an inlet chamber and an outlet chamber. Several heat exchange pipes connect the inlet and outlet chambers. Supports are provided at both ends of the inlet and outlet chambers. Several heat exchange fins are arranged parallel to each other between the inlet and outlet chambers. Slides are provided on the sides of both the inlet and outlet chambers, and movable seats are provided on the slides. A support plate is provided between two movable seats, and a brush is provided on the side of the support plate near the heat exchange fins. This invention uses brushes on the sides of the heat exchange fins, which can move on the slides. The movable brushes can brush off dust and lint from the heat exchange fins, reducing the frequency of disassembling the heat exchanger for cleaning and making operation convenient. The above-mentioned device has certain shortcomings in its use: when cleaning the dust and lint on the surface of the heat exchange fins, it is necessary to manually control the brush to move on the slide to control the cleaning of dust and impurities on the radiator surface. However, when controlling the brush, it is still necessary to remove the front bumper and other parts of the vehicle. This is similar to the existing method of direct removal and cleaning, and does not provide a better solution.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides an automotive radiator to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an automotive radiator that solves the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution: an automotive radiator, including a radiator frame, a heat exchange component for generating heat is installed inside the radiator frame, and a cleaning component for cleaning dust and impurities adhering to the surface of the heat exchange component is installed on the outer wall of the radiator frame. The cleaning components include a control mechanism for controlling the linear left and right movement of the drive. Cleaning mechanism for cleaning and dust removal of heat exchange components; A rinsing mechanism that works in conjunction with a cleaning mechanism to simultaneously clean and move the surface of the heat exchange components.

[0007] By employing the above technical solution, which combines sweeping and rinsing, the surface of the heat exchange components can be cleaned more thoroughly without the need for additional disassembly of parts such as car bumpers, and the entire cleaning process takes less time.

[0008] Furthermore, the control mechanism includes mounting slots at the top and bottom of the outer wall of the radiator frame. A reciprocating screw is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the top mounting slot. A stepper motor is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the radiator frame. The power shaft of the stepper motor passes through the radiator frame and is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating screw via a bearing. A slide block is screwed onto the outer wall of the reciprocating screw. The outer wall of slide block one is fixedly connected to the cleaning mechanism and the rinsing mechanism, respectively. The front and rear walls of slide block one are slidably connected to the inner wall of the top mounting slot. A positioning rod is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the bottom mounting slot. A slide block two is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the positioning rod. The front and rear walls of slide block two are fixedly connected to the cleaning mechanism and the rinsing mechanism, respectively. The outer wall of slide block two is slidably connected to the inner wall of the bottom mounting slot.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the stepper motor can drive the reciprocating screw to rotate in the mounting slot and drive the slide one to reciprocate linearly along its outer wall. Through the connection of the cleaning mechanism and the rinsing mechanism, it can drive the slide two to move synchronously along the outer wall of the positioning rod. The movement path of the cleaning mechanism and the rinsing mechanism can be limited to prevent deviation.

[0010] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a movable frame 1 fixedly installed on the front wall of slide 1 and slide 2. The movable frame 1 is located at the front of the radiator frame. A cleaning brush is installed on the rear wall of the movable frame 1 near the heat exchange component. The cleaning brush is made of high-temperature resistant material and cleans the dust and impurities attached to the surface of the heat exchange component.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, when slide one and slide two move, they will drive the moving frame one and the cleaning brush to clean the dust and impurities attached to the heat exchange components.

[0012] Furthermore, the rinsing mechanism includes a movable frame two fixedly installed on the rear wall of slide one and slide two. A discharge pipe is installed on the front wall of the movable frame two at the position corresponding to the cleaning brush. Several water spray heads are evenly installed on the front part of the outer wall of the discharge pipe, and a water inlet pipe is connected to the top of the discharge pipe.

[0013] Through the above technical solution, when slide one and slide two move, they will drive the movement of the moving frame two, thereby causing the discharge pipe and the water spray head to move synchronously. The water spray will clean the impurities attached to the surface of the heat exchange components in conjunction with the cleaning mechanism.

[0014] Furthermore, the outer end of the water inlet pipe can be extended to the location of the windshield washer fluid filling pipe and fixed with a strap, and a control valve is installed on the outer wall of the water inlet pipe.

[0015] The above technical solution allows the inlet pipe to receive externally injected cleaning fluid or clean water, and its opening and closing are controlled by a control valve.

[0016] Furthermore, the heat exchange assembly includes several heat exchange fins installed on the inner wall of the radiator frame. The front and rear walls of the heat exchange fins are provided with inclined chamfers to increase the passage rate of external airflow and help improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange fins. Hot water pipes are installed inside the heat exchange fins.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, the hot water exchange pipe is used to transport hot coolant, and the heat exchange fins absorb and exchange heat on the surface of the hot water exchange pipe, thereby achieving the effect of cooling down.

[0018] Furthermore, one end of the hot water pipe is connected to an inlet pipe, and the other end is connected to an outlet pipe.

[0019] With the above technical solution, the inlet pipe is used to receive hot coolant into the heat exchange pipe, and the coolant can be discharged from the outlet pipe after cooling down. Beneficial effects

Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages: (1) The car radiator, through the setting of the cleaning component, can adopt a dual cleaning method for the heat exchanger component, which is a combination of sweeping and rinsing, so that the dust and impurities attached to the surface of the heat exchanger component are cleaned more thoroughly. Compared with the existing cleaning method, it does not require the removal of car bumpers and other parts, making it simpler and less time-consuming to clean the car radiator, and has a good cleaning effect when used.

A cleaning brush 36 is installed on the rear wall of the movable frame 35 near the heat exchange component 2. The cleaning brush 36 is made of high temperature resistant material and cleans the dust and impurities attached to the surface of the heat exchange component 2. The rinsing mechanism includes a movable frame 39 fixedly mounted on the rear wall of slide 34 and slide 38. A discharge pipe 310 is installed on the front wall of the movable frame 39, corresponding to the cleaning brush 36. Several spray nozzles 311 are evenly installed on the front part of the outer wall of the discharge pipe 310. A water inlet pipe 312 is connected to the top of the discharge pipe 310. The outer end of the water inlet pipe 312 extends to the location of the windshield washer fluid filler tube and is secured with a strap. A control valve 313 is installed on the outer wall of the water inlet pipe 312. In this embodiment of the utility model, the purpose of this setting is that the cleaning component 3 is mainly set up by combining sweeping and rinsing, which can clean the surface of the heat exchange component 2 more thoroughly, and at the same time, it does not require additional disassembly and assembly of car bumpers and other parts.

[0025] Example 2: Please refer to Figures 1-6 This embodiment provides a technical solution based on embodiment one: the heat exchange component 2 includes a plurality of heat exchange plates 22 installed on the inner wall of the radiator frame 1. The front and rear walls of the heat exchange plates 22 are provided with inclined chamfers 23 to increase the passage rate of external airflow and assist in improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange plates 22. A hot water pipe 21 is installed inside the heat exchange plate 22. One end of the hot water pipe 21 is connected to an inlet pipe 24, and the other end of the hot water pipe 21 is connected to an outlet pipe 25. In this embodiment of the utility model, the purpose of this arrangement is that the water inlet pipe 24 is used to receive the hot coolant entering the water exchange pipe 21, and after the heat exchange and cooling of the heat exchange plate 22, it is discharged through the water outlet pipe 25. At the same time, the front and rear walls of the heat exchange plate 22 are provided with inclined chamfers 23 to improve the pass rate of external airflow, which can help increase the heat exchange and cooling effect of the heat exchange plate 22.

[0026] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0027] Working principle of this device: The control valve 313 and stepper motor 32 of this device are connected to the vehicle power supply through wires to provide power to the device (the specific wiring layout and connection method are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here; at the same time, the equipment model of the electronic control components can be selected and used as needed according to existing standard parts). At the same time, the control valve 313 and stepper motor 32 of this device are electrically connected to the vehicle controller, and the signal input terminals of the control valve 313 and stepper motor 32 are connected to the signal output terminals of the controller. The working content of this device is to provide a basis and principle for realizing the signal output and input of the control logic of the electronic control equipment, and to describe in detail the mechanical components of the corresponding improvement part for the problems raised in the background art. When the hot coolant enters the heat exchanger pipe 21 through the inlet pipe 24, the heat exchanger 22 can absorb the heat of the heat exchanger pipe 21 for heat exchange. The heat exchanger pipe 21 discharges the coolant after absorbing heat through the outlet pipe 25. The inclined chamfer 23 on the surface of the heat exchanger 22 can enhance the efficiency of the external airflow to carry away the heat of the heat exchanger 22 and increase its heat exchange and cooling effect. After the hot water pipe 21 and heat exchange plate 22 have been working for a period of time, some dust and lint will adhere to their surfaces, which will affect the heat exchange efficiency of the hot water pipe 21 and heat exchange plate 22. To address this, the vehicle controller can be operated to start the control valve 313 and the stepper motor 32. Then, clean water or cleaning fluid will be added to the water inlet pipe 312 extending to the outer end. After passing through the water inlet pipe 312 and the control valve 313, the clean water or cleaning fluid will enter the discharge pipe 310 and be sprayed out from the spray head 311. When the stepper motor 32 is working, it controls the reciprocating screw 33 to rotate in the mounting groove 31 on the radiator bracket 1. As the reciprocating screw 33 continues to rotate, it controls the slide block 34 to move linearly back and forth along the inner wall of the mounting groove 31, and simultaneously controls the moving frame 35 and the moving frame 39 to move at the same time. While the moving frame 35 and the moving frame 39 move linearly back and forth, they will drive the cleaning brush 36 and the water spray head 311 to move respectively. The cleaning brush 36 cleans the lint, dust and impurities attached to the surface of the hot water pipe 21 and the heat exchange plate 22. At the same time, the water spray head 311 sprays water to rinse the hot water pipe 21 and the heat exchange plate 22, so that the impurities remaining on the surface are removed. Since the car radiator is generally installed in the front of the engine compartment, the flushing wastewater can be discharged directly (such as when it is cleaned in a car wash, it can be discharged directly into the wastewater pool). When the first movable frame 35 and the second movable frame 39 move, they will drive the second sliding block 38 to move linearly along the outer wall of the positioning rod 37, which can limit its movement path, prevent deviation, and improve the stability of operation. The cleaning component 3 allows for the cleaning of the entire radiator without disassembling parts such as the car bumper. The overall cleaning method is simple, efficient, and requires no additional disassembly or assembly of parts.
