Description

Water cooling plate components

The invention relates to a heat dissipation component, in particular to a water-cooling plate component.

Generally speaking, a computer mainly has a chassis, power supply, motherboard, central processing unit, graphics card and expansion card. The power supply and the motherboard are installed in the casing, and the central processor, graphics card and expansion card are installed on the motherboard. When the computer is running, the central processing unit is responsible for data calculations and the graphics card is responsible for image calculations, both of which generate a large amount of heat. Therefore, computer manufacturers generally install fans or water-cooling radiators to dissipate heat from the CPU or graphics card.

Taking water-cooled radiators as an example, water-cooled radiators generally include water-cooled heads, water-cooled radiators and pumps. The water block is in thermal contact with the CPU or graphics card. Water cooling radiator is used for heat dissipation. The water-cooling head, water-cooling radiator and pump are connected to form a circulation channel. Coolant is stored in the circulation channel. The pump drives the coolant to flow through the water-cooled head and water-cooled radiator to form a cooling cycle. When the coolant circulates, the coolant transfers the heat generated by the CPU or graphics card to the water-cooling radiator, where it is dissipated through the water-cooling radiator. However, the current water-cooling radiator's heat dissipation efficiency for heat sources such as CPUs and graphics cards is still insufficient. Therefore, how to further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of water-cooling radiators for heat sources such as CPUs and graphics cards has become a design issue. Big topic.

The present invention provides a water-cooling plate assembly, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the water-cooling plate assembly for heat sources such as central processing units.

A water-cooling plate assembly disclosed in one embodiment of the present invention includes a base, a cover, a water inlet connector and a water outlet connector. The cover body is installed on the base, and the cover body and the base together form a liquid flow space. The cover body has a water inlet and a water outlet. In the longitudinal direction of the cover body, the water inlet and the water outlet are respectively located on opposite sides of the cover body. The water inlet connector is installed at the water inlet of the cover body. The water outlet joint is installed at the water outlet of the cover body.

According to the water-cooling plate assembly of the above embodiment, by locating the water inlet and the water outlet at opposite sides of the cover body, the heat dissipation effect of the coolant on the base is improved, thereby improving the overall heat dissipation effect of the water-cooling plate assembly.

E1 in the center of 210. The annular side plate 220 is connected to the periphery of the cover plate 210 . The two baffles 230 and 240 protrude from the cover plate 210 and are located in the liquid flow space S. The two baffles 230 and 240 extend along the short side direction F2 of the cover body 200, and in the short side direction F2 of the cover body 200, the height of the two baffles 230 and 240 protrudes from the covering plate 210 from both sides toward the center. E1 decreases. As a result, in the short side direction F2 of the cover body 200, the height of the liquid flow space S at the two baffles 230 and 240 increases from the two ends E2 toward the center E1. That is to say, at the two baffles 230 and 240, the height H1 of E1E1 at the center of the liquid flow space S is greater than the height H2 of E2E2 at both ends.
