Abstract:
A fastening structure is provided for fastening a thermal module to a mainboard, and includes a main body having at least one elastic press portion, a fastening portion, and an insertion unit. The fastening portion is provided on an end of the main body and the insertion unit is outward extended from another opposite end of the main body. The elastic press portion is provided on the main body and located between the insertion unit and the fastening portion, and a flexible space is defined between the elastic press portion and the main body. With these arrangements, the fastening structure can be quickly assembled to the thermal module without the need of welding and can therefore be conveniently separated therefrom whenever reworking is necessary.
Abstract:
A radiating fin and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. The radiating fin includes a main body having a first side and an opposite second side, and being provided with at least one through hole to extend between the first and the second side for a heat pipe to extend therethrough; and at least one extension being formed on at least one of the first and the second side of the main body to locate around the at least one through hole and axially project from the main body. The extension is crimped to form a plurality of circumferentially alternate ridge portions and valley portions for tightly pressing against an outer surface of the heat pipe, so as to firmly bind the radiating fin to the heat pipe. A thermal module can be formed by sequentially binding a plurality of the radiating fins to the heat pipe.

Abstract:
A heat dissipation unit includes a heat pipe and a base seat. The base seat has a first side and a second side. The second side is formed with a channel and multiple perforations in communication with the first and second sides. The heat pipe has a heat absorption section and a conduction section. The conduction section extends from the heat absorption section in a direction to at least one end of the heat pipe distal from the heat absorption section. Several parts of the heat pipe corresponding to the perforations are received in the perforations and flush with the first side of the base seat. The heat dissipation unit improves the shortcoming of the conventional heat dissipation component that the coplanar precision between the heat pipe and the protruding platform of the base seat is hard to control.
Abstract:
A fixing structure for heat dissipation assembly includes a base and multiple female fastener holders. The base has at least one through bore axially extending through an upper and a lower surface thereof, as well as coupling holes located outside the through bore and respectively having an engaging element disposed therein. The female fastener holder has a lower side formed with coupling protrusions corresponding to the coupling holes. The coupling protrusion has a guiding groove radially provided thereon and having a lower and an upper end recess for engaging with the engaging element in the corresponding coupling hole. The engaging elements in the coupling holes are guided by the guiding grooves to move from the lower to the upper recesses when the female fastener holder is turned relative to the through bore and the coupling holes on the base, bringing the coupling protrusions to axially insert into the coupling holes.
