Problems solved by technology

[0002] Press, electronic loads generated by high heat energy such as existing integrated circuits, power transistors, chipsets, and light-emitting diode (LED) lamps need to use radiators or heat dissipation mechanisms in order to operate normally. Existing electronic loads are passive The heat dissipation fins or the air cooling method of the heat sink are not enough. In addition to the slow heat dissipation speed, the cooling efficiency of the heat source or hot spot is also very poor, and the heat dissipation temperature of each point on the interface between the electronic load and the heat sink is uneven. It does not meet the needs of industrial utilization, and is gradually eliminated
[0003] There may be improved ones because of this, and metal pipes are used to inject cooling liquid or heat dissipation liquid into the pipe, and then connect the heat sink to provide heat dissipation for the above-mentioned electronic loads. However, due to the slow flow rate of cooling liquid or heat dissipation liquid, if only heat Convection pushes the coolant or heat dissipation fluid, which cannot achieve rapid heat dissipation at all, and will limit the installation direction of the electronic load. For example, the installation direction of the LED lamp is above the radiator, that is, when the projected light is upward, if only relying on heat It is difficult to push up the cooling liquid or heat dissipation liquid to flow smoothly and quickly in the convection method. Therefore, it is usually necessary to add a small electric pump to pressurize the cooling liquid or heat dissipation liquid. However, this method will inevitably make the small electric pump It consumes extra power and equipment costs, which is not economical, and also requires space for installation, which limits its application range
[0004] The above-mentioned existing metal pipeline is equipped with an electronic load to provide a heat dissipation mechanism. Another disadvantage is that if the metal pipeline needs to be matched with the installation occasion or mechanism design of the electronic load, for example, if it is arranged in a narrow case, then It cannot be arranged smoothly, thus affecting its industrial utilization value. Moreover, the metal pipeline will be limited by the bending angle limit and deformation limit of the metal pipeline in terms of bending angle and configuration path, and cannot be applied to various shapes. In the structure of electronic products and component configuration positions, such as the metal pipeline must bypass or avoid certain mechanisms or electronic components, and must be bent or coiled in a large scale, the heat dissipation of the existing metal pipeline configuration cannot be applied, thus limiting the scope of its application
[0005] In terms of relevant previous patent technical documents, such as the invention patent case of "Liquid Cooling System" in Taiwan Patent Publication No. I265772, it discloses a typical existing metal pipeline configuration liquid cooling system. Similarly, metal pipelines will be produced. Problems and shortcomings of poor heat dissipation efficiency and bending of metal pipelines that are easily hindered by mechanism space, shape, and electronic component placement
[0006] In addition, such as China Taiwan Patent Publication No. 553602 "Radiator Improvement Structure" patent case, it discloses that a radiator composed of a small pump and a flexible heat dissipation pipe is provided to the electronic load for heat dissipation. Although it can improve the above-mentioned problem of bending configuration of metal pipelines, it still cannot solve the problem of slow flow rate of coolant or cooling fluid, and must rely on small pumps for pressurized delivery, which must consume extra power and increase equipment costs, which is not economical.
[0007] From the above, the existing heat dissipation device of the electronic load relies on the poor heat dissipation speed and efficiency of the air cooling method and the uneven heat dissipation of the junction. The installation position of the load is limited. In addition, if a small electric pump is to be added to pressurize and push the cooling fluid to circulate and dissipate heat, it will consume extra power, increase the cost and occupy the installation space.
