除非另有定义，本文所使用的所有的技术和科学术语与属于本申请的技术领域的技术人员通常理解的含义相同。本文中在本申请的说明书中所使用的术语只是为了描述具体的实施方式的目的，不是旨在于限制本申请。本文所使用的术语“和/或”包括一个或多个相关的所列项目的任意的和所有的组合。
如图1至图7所示，本发明提供一种带有冷却模块的连接器100，包括连接器壳体1和冷却模块，连接器壳体1内设置电连接装置2，电连接装置2的数量为一个或多个，在本发明的一具体实施例中，电连接装置2的数量为两个；电连接装置2为可连接在至少一个电流传送源或脉冲传送源上的电流或数据传送装置，被安置在一个传送装置壳体内并具有触头元件。在本发明的一具体实施例中，电连接装置2采用端子，端子采用排类端子或线缆类端子，端子的材质可以为软的材料或硬的材料，具体型号根据实际使用需求确定。
冷却模块包括能相变吸收热量或相变释放热量的相变材料单元5，相变材料单元5设置于连接器壳体1内；带有冷却模块的连接器100运行时，相变材料单元通过相变吸收电连接装置2(带有冷却模块的连接器100运行时，电连接装置2与相对应电路导通，产生热量)产生的热量；带有冷却模块的连接器100停止运行后，相变材料单元通过相变更好地释放热量。
如图9所示，在连接器壳体1内部填充相变材料单元5，相变材料单元填满连接器壳体的内部空隙；相变材料单元可以是固-液相变材料，例如一种有机物混合烷烃，此固-液相变材料相变温度36℃，潜热220KJ/Kg，密度0.8Kg/m3，最高使用温度300℃，具有良好的绝缘性，无任何腐蚀性，液体比固体体积小10％。其基本原理是在发生温度变化时，相变材料会从一种状态转变为另外一种状态，在不同相之间变化的过程中相变材料会吸收和释放大量的热，该过程是可逆过程，因此材料可重复多次利用，具有相变潜热大、相变温度范围宽、成本低等优点。在温度低时，相变材料物质内能低，分子之间的约束大，自由状态时活动范围也极小，呈固态， 它是一种有序结构，势能最低的状态。在这种状态下，分子间相互作用力最强，分子的位置就被稳固地束缚起来。温度升高时，相变材料吸收大量热量，物质内能提高了，分子之间的约束放松了，自由状态时活动范围大幅增加，因为分子运动足够剧烈，导致总是有些分子不安分地呆在势阱中。分子间的相互束缚总是快速地断开、连接，导致它们相互滑移。但是这些运动又不够剧烈到它们从相互作用之间逃离，变成自由分子，使得分子会三三两两地聚集成团，由于分子的不断碰撞，这些分子团会呈现出聚集-打散-重新聚集的过程，于是乎形成了流动的状态，产生相变。通过固-液相变的过程吸收连接器在运行过程中产生的热量，固-液相变材料发生相变，由固态变为液态，在连接器不运行时，固-液相变材料放出热量，由液态变为固态。
相变材料单元还可以是固-固相变材料，或者是固-液与固-固混合相变材料。
本发明的带有冷却模块的连接器中，连接器壳体内设置相变材料单元构成的冷却模块，冷却模块通过相变材料吸收连接器在运行过程中产生的热量，在连接器升温后，冷却模块通过相变材料传递出热量，达到冷却的目的。
进一步，带有冷却模块的连接器100还包括散热结构，相变材料单元相变释放的热量通过散热结构加快散发至连接器壳体的外部。
散热结构可以采用连接器壳体上设置冷却翅片散热的方式，还可以采用连接器壳体内设置冷却流道散热的方式，还可以采用连接器壳体上设置导热聚合物散热的方式，或者是上述三者的混合方式。
进一步，带有冷却模块的连接器100的散热结构采用冷却翅片散热的方式时，该散热方式下，相变材料单元一般采用固-固相变材料；如图1、图2所示，散热结构包括设置于连接器壳体1外壁上的第一冷却翅片组31，第一冷却翅片组31可以包括多个金属冷却翅片或非金属冷却翅片。相变材料单元通过相变放出的热量通过第一冷却翅片组31加快散热，达到冷却的目的。
金属冷却翅片可以采用铝合金，非金属冷却翅片可以采用导热塑料，其以通用塑料或工程塑料为基材，将高导热复合材料添加在塑料基材中共混复合、通过热传导改性而成的新型高性能塑料。主要基体材料有:PPS、PA6/PA66、LCP、TPE、PC、PP、PPA、PEEK等，主要填料有:AlN、SiC、Al2O3、Mg(OH)2、石墨等。导热塑料具有的几大优势：1、绝缘阻燃，可靠性高；2、加工成型方便，量产性好；3、无需二次加工，更绿色环保；4、重量轻，密度约为铝材的三分之二。
壳体1可采用铝合金也可采用导热塑料，冷却翅片与壳体可一体加工或可粘接，铝合金铸造或导热塑料一体注塑，若冷却翅片为金属也可采用预埋方式进行注塑。
壳体1和冷却翅片可以采用双色注塑方式，壳体1采用普通塑料，冷却翅片采用导热塑料，以降低加工成本。
如图1、图3、图4、图5所示，本发明的实施例一中，连接器壳体1的一侧呈开口设置，开口处能拆卸地连接后盖11，后盖11的外侧设置第二冷却翅片组32，第二冷却翅片组32包括多个金属冷却翅片或非金属冷却翅片。第二冷却翅片组32可与第一冷却翅片组31材质相同，金属冷却翅片可以采用铝合金，非金属冷却翅片可以采用导热塑料。第二冷却翅片组32和第一冷却翅片组31共同散热，进一步提升散热效果，有利于连接器更快的散热。
进一步，带有冷却模块的连接器100的散热结构采用冷却流道散热的方式时，一般与前述的冷却翅片配合使用；该散热方式下，相变材料单元一般采用固-固相变材料或固-液相变材料，还可以是固-液与固-固混合相变材料；
如图3、图6所示，本发明的实施例二中，散热结构包括后盖11内设置第一冷却流道12，第一冷却流道的入口121和第一冷却流道的出口122均位于后盖11的外侧。第一冷却流道12可以为液冷流道，也可以为风冷流道。
此种散热方式下，可以在后盖11的内侧设置第三冷却翅片组33，以便更好传导热量，第三冷却翅片组33包括多个金属冷却翅片。热量通过电连接装置2传导到相变材料单元(固-液相变材料等)，相变材料单元吸收热量发生相变，同时通过后盖里侧的第三冷却翅片组33将热量传导到后盖11上，最后通过后盖11内的第一冷却流道12及其外侧的第二冷却翅片组32放出热量。
进一步，带有冷却模块的连接器100的散热结构采用冷却流道散热的方式时，如图7、图8、图9所示，本发明的实施例三中，散热结构还可以包括设置于连接器壳体1内的传导结构4，传导结构4内设置第二冷却流道，第二冷却流道的入口41和第二冷却流道的出口42均位于连接器壳体1的外侧。第二冷却流道可以为液冷流道，也可以为风冷流道。
热量通过电连接装置2传导到相变材料单元(固-液相变材料等)，相变材料单元吸收热量发生相变，同时将热量传导到传导结构4上，最后通过传导结构4内的第二冷却流道放出热量。
前述两种散热结构原理相同，都是通过冷却流道中的介质快速流动带走热量， 冷却流道中流体可以是液态或气态，加快相变材料单元(固-液相变材料等)冷却，更好的冷却连接器。
进一步，带有冷却模块的连接器100的散热结构采用导热聚合物散热的方式时，散热结构包括后盖11的内侧设置的第一导热聚合物部。导热聚合物一般采用注塑填充，导热系数远高于空气，能够有效提高散热效率。
该散热方式下，散热结构还可以是包括设置于连接器壳体外侧的第二导热聚合物部，第二导热聚合物部用于加快散出相变材料单元相变释放的热量。
由上所述，本发明的带有冷却模块的连接器具有如下有益效果：
本发明的带有冷却模块的连接器中，连接器壳体内设置相变材料单元构成的冷却模块，冷却模块通过相变材料吸收连接器在运行过程中产生的热量，在连接器升温后，冷却模块通过相变材料传递出热量，达到冷却的目的；
