Eine dahingehende Aufgabe löst eine Fluidkühlvorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1 in seiner Gesamtheit.This object is achieved by a fluid cooling device having the features of
Dadurch, dass gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruches 1 die Baueinheit (Fluidkühlvorrichtung) als Wendeaggregat ausgeführt ist, bei dem eine Befüllöffnung, vorzugsweise mit einer Filtereinrichtung versehen, und eine Füllstandsanzeige derart an dem Vorratstank angeordnet sind, dass die Baueinheit in zumindest zwei Montagerichtungen, gemäß zweier Hauptachsen, d.h. in einer vertikalen, ersten Montagerichtung und in einer rechtwinklig dazu angeordneten, vorzugsweise horizontalen, zweiten Montagerichtung, montierbar ist, ist eine konstruktive Maßnahme geschaffen, die Fluidkühlvorrichtung in verschiedenen Einbaulagen zu montieren und dennoch mit einer Mindestzahl an Füllstandsanzeigen und Befüllöffnungen, nämlich vorzugsweise mit jeweils nur einer Anzeige bzw. Öffnung, auszukommen. Bevorzugt ist also vorgesehen, mit einer einzigen Befüllöffnung und mit einer einzigen Füllstandsanzeige, die entsprechend ausgeführt sind, die Fluidkühlvorrichtung in zumindest zwei voneinander verschiedenen Einbaulagen an einem Drittbauteil entsprechend zu montieren, ohne dass es zu Funktionseinbußen kommt.Characterized in that according to the characterizing part of
Um eine einwandfreie Befüllung des Vorratstanks mit Fluid zu ermöglichen und um unabhängig von der Einbaulage der Fluidkühlvorrichtung, ob in Richtung einer vertikalen Hauptachse oder in Richtung einer diese schneidenden Achse, den Füllstand ablesen zu können, ist vorgesehen, die Befüllöffnung und die Füllstandsanzeige in einem Eckbereich des Vorratstanks anzuordnen. Der betreffende Eckbereich zeichnet sich durch eine Abflachung der betreffenden Ecke des Vorratstanks aus, also durch eine Wegnahme der durch die ansonsten drei spitz zueinander laufenden Wandflächen gebildeten Ecke. Anstatt der genannten Ecke wird eine in etwa 45° alle drei betreffenden Wandflächen schneidende Wand oder Eckfläche geformt, die die Anordnung der Befüllöffnung im Scheitelpunkt der Begrenzungsgeraden der einzelnen Wandflächen des Vorratstanks ermöglicht. Der Vorratstank weist dabei bevorzugt eine quaderähnliche Gestalt mit jeweils etwa parallel zueinander verlaufenden Kanten an den einzelnen Seitenflächen auf, die in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform in etwa gleich lang ausgestaltet sind.In order to allow proper filling of the storage tank with fluid and independent of the installation position of the fluid cooling device, whether in the direction of a vertical main axis or in the direction of this intersecting axis to read the level, is provided, the filling and the level indicator in a corner to arrange the storage tank. The corner region in question is characterized by a flattening of the relevant corner of the storage tank, ie by removing the corner formed by the otherwise three acute running wall surfaces. Instead of said corner a approximately 45 ° all three wall panels concerned cutting wall or corner surface is formed, which allows the arrangement of the filling at the apex of the boundary line of the individual wall surfaces of the storage tank. The Storage tank preferably has a parallelepiped-like shape, each with approximately mutually parallel edges on the individual side surfaces, which are configured in a preferred embodiment in about the same length.
Benachbart zu der Befüllöffnung, die auch mit einer Filtereinrichtung und einer Druckausgleichseinrichtung ausgestattet sein kann, ist die Füllstandsanzeige vorgesehen. Die Füllstandsanzeige ist bevorzugt durch eine Skalierung gebildet, die direkt und vorzugsweise einstückig mit der Wand des Vorratstanks ausgebildet ist. Die Skalierung ist um eine Kontrollöffnung oder Kontrollanzeige (Schauglas) angeordnet, die in der Wand des Vorratstanks ausgespart ist. Der Vorratstank ist bevorzugt ein im Umformverfahren oder Blasformverfahren gebildeter Thermoplast-Kunststofftank, so dass die Skalierung in Form von beabstandeten Strichen bei der Herstellung des Vorratstanks mit vorgenommen werden kann.Adjacent to the filling opening, which may also be equipped with a filter device and a pressure compensation device, the level indicator is provided. The level indicator is preferably formed by a scale which is formed directly and preferably in one piece with the wall of the storage tank. The scale is arranged around a control opening or indicator (sight glass), which is recessed in the wall of the storage tank. The storage tank is preferably a formed in the forming process or blow molding thermoplastic resin tank, so that the scaling in the form of spaced lines in the manufacture of the storage tank can be made with.
Anstelle von beabstandeten Strichen kann aber auch nur immer jeweils ein einzelner Füllstandsstrich angegeben sein, der beispielsweise eine maximale oder minimale Füllstandshöhe im Vorratstank wiedergibt, wobei die Skalierung oder die Einzelstrichangabe einen rechten Winkel mit der zugehörigen zweiten Skalierung bzw. der zweiten Einzelstrichangabe einschließt. Ansonsten läßt sich die Skalierung durch eine entsprechende Formgebung innerhalb der Tiefzieh- oder Blasform zur Vorratstankerstellung erhalten. Bevorzugt sind die Wände des Vorratstanks transparent ausgeführt, so dass unmittelbar der Füllstand an der eingesetzten Skalierung ablesbar ist. Um eine UV-Strahlungsabschirmung für das betreffende Fluid zu bewirken, kann es zweckmäßig sein, den Vorratstank aus einem milchig-trüben Kunststoff oder einem nicht transparenten Kunststoff zu bilden, so dass der Füllstand dann zweckmäßig an einem, die Kontrollöffnung verschließenden transparenten Dichtelement in der Art eines Schauglases mit abgelesen werden kann, in dessen sich anschließendem Wandbereich wieder die jeweilige Skalierung angeordnet ist, um einen Füllstandsabgleich zwischen der im Schauglas gezeigten Menge und der benachbarten Skalierung vornehmen zu können.Instead of spaced strokes, however, only one individual fill line bar can always be indicated, which reproduces, for example, a maximum or minimum filling level in the storage tank, wherein the scale or the individual line indication includes a right angle with the associated second scale or the second single line indication. Otherwise, the scaling can be obtained by a corresponding shaping within the thermoforming or blow mold for storage tank preparation. Preferably, the walls of the storage tank are made transparent, so that directly the level at the scale used can be read. In order to effect a UV radiation shielding for the relevant fluid, it may be expedient to form the storage tank from a milky-cloudy plastic or a non-transparent plastic, so that the level then expediently at a, the control opening occlusive transparent sealing element in the Art a sight glass can be read, in which subsequent wall area again the respective scale is arranged to a level balance between the amount shown in the sight glass and the adjacent scaling.
Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform braucht das Dichtelement nicht transparent ausgebildet zu sein, wenn die Wandung des Vorratstanks transparent ist. Ist die Wandung des Vorratstanks wiederum nicht transparent, so empfiehlt sich, ein transparentes Dichtelement für die Kontrollöffnung in der Art des Schauglases zu verwenden. Auch kann eine Teiltransparenz für die Wandung des Vorratstanks vorgesehen sein in der Art, dass eben noch eine Abgleichsüberprüfung zwischen Skalierung und Füllstandshöhe im Vorratstank ermöglicht ist.In a preferred embodiment, the sealing element need not be transparent when the wall of the storage tank is transparent. If the wall of the storage tank is again not transparent, it is advisable to use a transparent sealing element for the inspection opening in the manner of the sight glass. Also, a partial transparency for the wall of the storage tank may be provided in such a way that just a comparison check between scaling and level height is made possible in the storage tank.
Um einen Schutz vor Beschädigungen zu erreichen, kann die Füllstandsanzeige in einer Vertiefung der Wandkontur des Vorratstanks eingelassen sein. Die Skalierung schließt vorzugsweise einen fiktiven Winkel von 90° zueinander ein und zwar in entsprechender Anordnung unmittelbar benachbart um die Kontrollöffnung herum.To achieve protection against damage, the level indicator can be embedded in a recess in the wall contour of the storage tank. The scaling preferably includes a fictitious angle of 90 ° to each other in a corresponding arrangement immediately adjacent to the control opening around.
Der Vorratstank dient als Träger für das Lüfterrad nebst Antriebsmotor und umschließt dieses bevorzugt in der Art eines Rahmens, so dass ein mit Fluid befüllter Kastenaufbau um das drehbare Lüfterrad realisiert ist. Der Vorratstank und dessen Gestalt kann derart gewählt sein, dass dieser zum einen als Leiteinrichtung für zuströmende Luft dienen kann und zum anderen eine gute Dämpfungsmaßnahme für etwaige Betriebsgeräusche des Lüfterrades bildet. Der Vorratstank ist insoweit vorzugsweise von Kühlluft durchströmt, wobei der von dem erwärmten Fluid durchströmte Wärmetauscher ebenso integraler Bestandteil des Vorratstanks sein kann, wobei dieser bevorzugt den Wärmetauscher zumindest an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten umgreift und ihn dabei an einer Kasten- oder Rahmenkonstruktion des Vorratstanks festlegt.The storage tank serves as a support for the fan wheel together with the drive motor and encloses this preferably in the manner of a frame, so that a filled with fluid box construction is realized around the rotatable fan. The storage tank and its shape can be chosen such that it can serve as a guide for incoming air on the one hand and on the other hand forms a good damping measure for any operating noise of the fan. The storage tank is so far preferably flows through cooling air, wherein the flowed through by the heated fluid heat exchanger may also be an integral part of the storage tank, which preferably surrounds the heat exchanger at least on two opposite sides, thereby fixing it to a box or frame construction of the storage tank.
In vorteilhafter Weise ist der Wärmetauscher derart in die Außenkontur des Vorratstanks integriert, dass insgesamt ein Quader oder eine quaderähnliche Gestalt der Fluidkühlvorrichtung als Baueinheit entsteht, die insoweit ohne nennenswerte Anbauteile und Vorsprünge für eine Montage an Drittbauteilen auskommt.Advantageously, the heat exchanger is integrated into the outer contour of the storage tank such that a total of a cuboid or a parallelepiped-like shape of the fluid cooling device is formed as a unit, which makes do without significant attachments and protrusions for mounting on third components.
Ein Überdruckventil der Fluidkühlvorrichtung kann dabei benachbart zu der Befüllöffnung und der Füllstandsanzeige gleichfalls Bestandteil des Vorratstanks sein. Insoweit wäre auch der Betrieb der Fluidkühlvorrichtung durch einen Wechsel der Einbaulage aus sicherheitstechnischen Überlegungen heraus aufgrund des Überdruckventils bedenkenlos möglich.A pressure relief valve of the fluid cooling device can also be part of the storage tank adjacent to the filling opening and the level indicator. In that regard, the operation of the fluid cooling device by changing the mounting position for safety reasons due to the pressure relief valve would be possible without hesitation.
Es kann weiter vorteilhaft sein, zur Anpassung an technische Vorgaben des hydraulischen Arbeitskreises verschiedene Fluidanschlüsse an dem Vorratstank oder der Fluidkühlvorrichtung umsteckbar zu gestalten. Dies begünstigt wiederum den gesamt modularen Aufbau der Fluidkühlvorrichtung mit ihren Komponenten.It may also be advantageous to make different fluid connections to the storage tank or the fluid cooling device to adapt to technical specifications of the hydraulic working group umsteckbar. This in turn favors the overall modular design of the fluid cooling device with its components.

Wesentliche Komponenten der Fluidkühlvorrichtung 1 sind ein die Gestalt der Fluidkühlvorrichtung 1 beschreibender Vorratstank 4, ein Antriebsmotor 2, beispielsweise in Form eines Gleichstrom-Elektromotors, und ein von diesem angetriebenes Lüfterrad 3 (s.
Radial von dem Antriebsmotor 2 abgehende Rippen 17, die stegartig zu dem Rand der Gebläseöffnung 16 hin verlaufen, können als eine Art Gleichrichter zur Glättung des Kühlluftstromes dienen und versteifen derart auch das jeweilige Abdeckgitter 18 für das Lüfterrad 3. In Abhängigkeit der Lüfterradausbildung könnte die Strömungsrichtung der Kühlluft durch die Gebläseöffnung 16 auch invers vorgesehen sein, insbesondere, wenn bestimmte Einbausituationen der Fluidkühlvorrichtung 1 dies erfordern sollten. Eine inverse Strömungsluftumkehr läßt sich gegebenenfalls auch durch eine inverse Drehrichtung der Flügel im Lüfterbetrieb erreichen. Der Vorratstank 4 weist eine konisch, sich verjüngende Gestalt in der Art eines Einlauftrichters auf zu der von dem Abdeckgitter 18 verschlossenen Gebläseöffnung 16, so dass sich geringe Einlaufverluste für das Gebläse ergeben und insoweit ein günstiger Strömungsverlauf der Kühlluft durch den Vorratstank 4 sich ergibt.Radially from the drive motor 2
