Benefits of technology

[0009]The disclosure is a heat sink device and an air flow adjusting frame thereof for preventing the problem that when a conventional fan blows, a turbulent flow is easily generated between the fan and the circuit board resulting in decrease of heat dissipation ability and increase of the load of the fan.
[0012]According to the above heat sink device and the air flow adjusting frame for the same, the fan is enabled to pivot relative to the heat dissipation fin due to the air flow adjusting frame, so as to adjust the air flow angle of the fan. Consequently, the vertical interference of the air flow generated by the fan and the circuit board can be prevented, and the turbulent flow between the fan and the circuit board may also be reduced. Also, the heat dissipation ability of the heat sink is enhanced with the work load of the fan being reduced.

Problems solved by technology

Thus, when the air flow generated by the fan blows to the circuit board, the air flow is rebounded back due to the obstruction of the circuit board.
The rebounded air flow and the air flow generated by the fan interfere with each other, so that a turbulent flow is generated between the fan and the circuit board.
With the increasing operation load, the service life of the fan is shortened.
The disclosure is a heat sink device and an air flow adjusting frame thereof for preventing the problem that when a conventional fan blows, a turbulent flow is easily generated between the fan and the circuit board resulting in decrease of heat dissipation ability and increase of the load of the fan.
