DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(8) The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the figures and embodiments.

(9) As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the installation structure of the plug-in switch tube provided by the present invention includes:

(10) the PCB board 10, the plug-in switch tube 20 fixed on the PCB board 10, and the housing 30 matching the PCB board and the plug-in switch tube. The upper end of the housing 30 is open, and the fixed installation window 31 is provided on the lower end surface to match the plug-in switch tube 20.

(11) Specifically, the plug-in switch tube 20 is first welded to the PCB board 10, then the PCB board with the welded plug-in switch tube is inserted through the upper end of the housing 30, and the plug-in switch tube 20 corresponds to the fixed installation window 31. After finishing mounting, a sealant can be injected into the housing 30 to seal the fixed installation window.

(12) As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 6, the lower end surface of the housing 30 is set with the cooling liquid flow channel 60 that extends into the housing. The installation structure further includes: the elastic pressing-piece 40 that is set on the housing 30 to press the plug-in switch tube 20 against the side wall of the cooling liquid flow channel 60 on the housing 30, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6.

(13) In order to make the plug-in switch tube 20 fit with the cooling liquid flow channel 60, the elastic pressing-piece 40 is designed. With the elastic pressing-piece 40, the plug-in switch tube 20 is pressed against the side wall of the cooling liquid flow channel 60 to quickly dissipate heat generated by the plug-in switch tube through the cooling liquid flow channel.

(14) The elastic pressing-piece mounting base 61 is set on the side wall of the cooling liquid flow channel 60 for mounting the elastic pressing-piece 40. The elastic pressing-piece 40 comprises the mounting portion 41 that matches the elastic pressing piece mounting base 61, the vertical portion 42 that is vertically arranged with the mounting base, and the clamping portion 43 that is connected to the vertical portion 42 and has an obtuse angle with the vertical portion 42.

(15) Specifically, the mounting portion 41 and the elastic pressing-piece mounting base 61 are fixedly connected by screws. In a normal state, after the elastic pressing-piece 40 is mounted, it exactly fits to the side wall of the cooling liquid flow channel 60. However, as the plug-in switch tube 20 is inserted into the side wall of the cooling liquid flow channel 60, then the clamping portion 43 is in contact with the plug-in switch tube 20, and a pressure perpendicular to the side wall of the cooling fluid flow channel 60 is generated on the plug-in switch tube 20, so that the plug-in switch tube 20 is pressed against the cooling fluid flow channel 60.

(16) When the plug-in switch tube 20 is in operation, the generated heat can be quickly taken away by the cooling fluid in the cooling fluid flow channel 60, which accelerates the heat dissipation of the plug-in switch tube 20.

(17) Meanwhile, in order to better accelerate the heat conduction of the plug-in switch tube 20, a thermally conductive sheet made of a material with high thermal conductivity can be added between the plug-in switch tube 20 and the side wall of the cooling fluid flow channel between which the heat transfer is accelerated.

(18) As shown in FIG. 2, the cooling liquid flow channel 60 comprises the water channel groove 62 extending from the lower end surface of the housing 30 to the inside of the housing, the cover plate 63 matching the water channel groove 62, and the liquid inlet 32 and the liquid outlet 33 that are set at one end of the housing 30 and connected with the water channel groove 62.

(19) The water channel groove 62 is preferably oval, and is arranged around electronic components.

(20) As shown in FIG. 7, the bottom plate 50 is further provided on the lower end surface of the housing 30.

(21) The installation method of the installation structure of the plug-in switch tube according to the present invention comprises the following steps:

(22) a) welding the cover plate 63 to the channel groove 62,

(23) b) fixing the plug-in switch tube 20 on the PCB board 10,

(24) c) fixing the PCB board 10 to the housing 10,

(25) d) mounting the elastic pressing-piece 40 into the housing 30 through the fixed installation window 30 on the housing 30, and pressing the plug-in switch tube 20 on the cooling liquid flow channel 60, and

(26) e) mounting the cover plate on the fixed installation window 31, and filling the joint between the fixed installation window and the cover plate with a sealant.

(27) In summary, the installation structure of the plug-in switch tube according to the present invention has the advantages of small volume, excellent heat dissipation effect, simple assembly, low cost and light weight.

(28) The above embodiments are only used to describe specific implementations of the present invention. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several deformations and changes can be made, and all of these deformations and changes should belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
