Abstract

The cooler for electrotechnical devices has a cooling body formed such that ridges (3) are provided on the reverse side of the back plate (1) of the container. The ridges (3) are perpendicular to the cooling ribs (2) and their depth is greater than the thickness of the back plate (1). Thus, the cooling body can also serve as a rear connection to an electrical device. USE/ADVANTAGE - For cooling electrotechnical devices, especially those inserted in containers. Is compact, space saving construction which self ventilates.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kühlkörper für Geräte der Elektro­ technik, insbesondere für Stromversorgungsgeräte, der aus einem Rückenteil besteht, auf dem über- bzw. nebeneinander Kühlrippen angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a heat sink for electrical devices technology, in particular for power supply devices, which consists of a There is a back part on which cooling fins are placed one above the other or next to each other are arranged.

Bei Geräten der Elektrotechnik, insbesondere bei solchen, die als Einschübe in Gehäusen angeordnet sind, ist es meist proble­ matisch, eine platzsparende Konstruktion für Fremdbelüftung zu finden. In der Regel wird ein Kühlblech oder ein Kühler liegend in das Gehäuse eingebaut. Dadurch ist aber die Eigenbelüftung zum Beispiel bei Lüfterausfall fast nicht möglich, zum andern wird sehr viel Platz im Gehäuse benötigt.For electrical engineering devices, especially those that arranged as inserts in housings, it is usually problematic matically, a space-saving construction for forced ventilation too Find. As a rule, a heat sink or a cooler is lying down built into the housing. But this is self-ventilation for example, almost not possible in the event of a fan failure, on the other a lot of space is required in the housing.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen platzsparenden Kühlkörper für Geräte der Elektrotechnik zu schaffen, der auch noch bei Ausfall der Fremdkühlung eine ausreichende Eigenkühlung zur Aufrechterhaltung eines Notbetriebes ermöglicht.The object of the present invention is to save space To create heat sinks for electrical engineering devices, too sufficient self-cooling even if the external cooling fails to maintain emergency operation.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird der Kühlkörper gemäß der Erfin­ dung derart ausgebildet, daß auf der Hinterseite des Rückenteils senkrecht zu den Kühlrippen Nuten vorgesehen sind, deren Tiefe größer ist als die Dicke des Rückenteils.To solve this problem, the heat sink according to the inven dung formed such that on the back of the back part grooves are provided perpendicular to the cooling fins, the depth of which is greater than the thickness of the back part.

Der Kühlkörper kann dabei als rückwärtiger Abschluß eines elektrischen Gerätes dienen, wobei an der Vorderseite dieses Gerätes ein Lüfter vorgesehen ist.The heat sink can be a rear end of a serve electrical device, being at the front of this Device a fan is provided.

Durch diese Maßnahmen ergeben sich senkrecht zum Rückenteil des Kühlkörpers Luftaustrittslöcher. Der Lüfter in der Frontplatte bläst durch das Gehäuse und kühlt dabei auch die Bauteile im Gerät sowie den Kühlkörper auf der Rückseite. Der Innenraum bleibt durch eine solche Konstruktion frei von Kühlblechen. Es ist eine saubere Trennung von Zu- und Abluft gegeben und bei Ausfall des Lüfters ist es möglich, einen Notbetrieb mit ca. 50% der Last aufgrund der guten Eigenkühlung des Kühlkörpers aufrechtzuerhalten. Der Lüfter selbst kann so montiert werden, daß er leicht austauschbar ist.These measures result in perpendicular to the back of the Heat sink air outlet holes. The fan in the front panel  blows through the housing and also cools the components in the Device as well as the heat sink on the back. The interior remains free of cooling plates due to such a construction. It there is a clean separation of supply and exhaust air and at Failure of the fan, it is possible to run an emergency operation with approx. 50% of the load due to the good self-cooling of the heat sink maintain. The fan itself can be mounted that it is easily interchangeable.

Anhand des Ausführungsbeispiels wird die Erfindung näher er­ läutert. Das Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt einen Kühlkörper mit einem Rückenteil 1, auf dem senkrecht nebeneinander die Kühl­ rippen 2 angeordnet sind. Auf der Rückseite des Rückenteils 1 sind Nuten 3 vorgesehen, die entweder durch Fräsen, Sägen oder auch gleich beim Gießen angebracht werden können. Da die Nu­ tentiefe größer ist als die Dicke des Rückenteils 1, entstehen an den Stellen zwischen den Kühlrippen Löcher 3. Dieser Kühlkör­ per kann nun beispielsweise an der Rückseite eines Einschubs oder eines Gerätes montiert werden, so daß die Kühlrippen nach außen stehen und so im Gehäuse selbst, in dem der Einschub angeordnet ist, keinen Platz beanspruchen. Durch die Löcher entsteht eine Eigenkonvektion, die eine gute Kühlung auch ohne Fremdbelüftung ermöglicht. Baut man an der Frontseite des die Einschübe enthaltenden Gehäuses einen Lüfter ein, so bläst die­ ser durch das Gehäuse und kühlt sowohl die Bauteile im Einschub sowie den Kühlkörper selbst. Dadurch ist eine gute Kühlung bei wenig Platzaufwand gewährleistet.Based on the embodiment, the invention is explained in more detail. The embodiment shows a heat sink with a back part 1 , on which the cooling ribs 2 are arranged vertically next to each other. Grooves 3 are provided on the back of the back part 1 , which can be attached either by milling, sawing or immediately during casting. Since the Nu depth is greater than the thickness of the back part 1 , holes 3 are formed at the locations between the cooling fins. This Kühlkör by can now be mounted, for example, on the back of an insert or device, so that the cooling fins are facing out and so take up no space in the housing itself, in which the insert is arranged. The holes create a natural convection, which enables good cooling even without external ventilation. If a fan is installed on the front of the housing containing the inserts, it blows through the housing and cools both the components in the insert and the heat sink itself. This ensures good cooling with little space requirement.
