Description

この発明は、たとえば半導体素子などの電子部品からなる発熱体を冷却する液冷式冷却装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a liquid cooling type cooling device that cools a heating element made of an electronic component such as a semiconductor element.

この明細書および特許請求の範囲において、図2の上下を上下というもとのとする。   In this specification and claims, the top and bottom of FIG.

たとえば、電気自動車、ハイブリッド自動車、電車などに搭載される電力変換装置に用いられるIGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor)などのパワーデバイス(半導体素子)を冷却する液冷式冷却装置として、本出願人は、先に、頂壁および底壁を有しかつ内部に冷却液流路が設けられたケーシングと、ケーシング内の冷却液流路に配置された放熱器とを備えており、ケーシングの頂壁外面および底壁外面のうちいずれか一方に発熱体取付部が設けられ、放熱器が、基板、基板に対して突出するように千鳥配置状に設けられた高さの等しい複数の第1ピンフィン、および冷却液流路における冷却液の流れ方向上流端部および下流端部において基板に対して突出するように設けられかつ第1ピンフィンと高さの等しい複数の第2ピンフィンからなり、放熱器の第1および第2ピンフィンが、冷却液流路における冷却液流れ方向下流側に向かって一方に傾斜した複数の第1直線上、および同じく冷却液流れ方向下流側に向かって他方に傾斜した複数の第2直線上に並んで設けられ、放熱器の第1ピンフィンの横断面形状が菱形であり、かつ当該菱形の1つの鋭角部が冷却液流路における冷却液流れ方向上流側を向くとともに、当該角部と対角線上に位置する角部が同じく冷却液流れ方向下流側を向いており、第2ピンフィンの横断面形状が三角形または五角形であって平坦面が冷却液流れ方向上流側を向いている液冷式冷却装置を提案した(特許文献1参照)。   For example, as a liquid-cooled cooling device for cooling a power device (semiconductor element) such as an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) used in a power conversion device mounted on an electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, a train, etc., First, a casing having a top wall and a bottom wall and provided with a coolant flow path therein, and a radiator disposed in the coolant flow path in the casing, the outer surface of the top wall of the casing and A heating element mounting portion is provided on one of the outer surfaces of the bottom wall, and a plurality of first pin fins having the same height provided in a staggered manner so that the radiator protrudes from the substrate, and cooling A plurality of second pin fins provided so as to protrude from the substrate at the upstream end portion and the downstream end portion in the flow direction of the coolant in the liquid flow path and having the same height as the first pin fins. The first and second pin fins of the radiator are on a plurality of first straight lines inclined in one direction toward the downstream side in the coolant flow direction in the coolant flow path, and on the other side in the same direction toward the downstream side in the coolant flow direction. Provided side by side on a plurality of inclined second straight lines, the cross-sectional shape of the first pin fin of the radiator is a rhombus, and one acute angle portion of the rhombus is located upstream of the coolant flow direction in the coolant flow path And the corner located diagonally to the corner also faces the downstream side in the coolant flow direction, the cross-sectional shape of the second pin fin is a triangle or pentagon, and the flat surface is upstream in the coolant flow direction A liquid-cooling type cooling device facing the above has been proposed (see Patent Document 1).

特許文献1記載の液冷式冷却装置に用いられる放熱器は、ピンフィンの高さよりも厚肉の板状素材に、第1直線および第2直線のうち一方の直線と平行になるように切削加工を施すことによって、ピンフィンの高さと等しい深さを有する複数の溝を互いに間隔をおいて形成し、ついで他方の直線と平行になるように切削加工を施すことによって、溝の両側の残存部分における上端からピンフィンの高さと等しい部分を切除し、これにより基板および第1および第2ピンフィンを形成することによって製造されている。   The radiator used in the liquid cooling type cooling device described in Patent Document 1 is cut into a plate-shaped material thicker than the height of the pin fin so as to be parallel to one of the first straight line and the second straight line. A plurality of grooves having a depth equal to the height of the pin fin are formed at intervals, and then cut so as to be parallel to the other straight line. It is manufactured by cutting a portion equal to the height of the pin fin from the upper end, thereby forming the substrate and the first and second pin fins.

特許文献1記載の液冷式冷却装置においては、冷却液通路内を流体がスムーズに流れるので、冷却性能が優れたものになる。   In the liquid cooling type cooling device described in Patent Document 1, since the fluid flows smoothly in the cooling liquid passage, the cooling performance is excellent.

ところで、最近では、液冷式冷却装置のさらなる性能向上が求められている。たとえば、特許文献1記載の液冷式冷却装置においては、冷却液流路の流路抵抗を低減するために、放熱器の第2ピンフィンを除去することが求められているが、この場合、第2ピンフィンのみを除去する作業は容易ではなく、加工コストが増加するという問題がある。   By the way, recently, further performance improvement of the liquid cooling type cooling device has been demanded. For example, in the liquid cooling type cooling device described in Patent Document 1, it is required to remove the second pin fin of the radiator in order to reduce the flow resistance of the cooling liquid flow path. The operation of removing only the 2-pin fins is not easy, and there is a problem that the processing cost increases.
