The heat dissipation method of mobile phone processors is to transfer heat from the processor and screen layer by layer to the mobile phone casing through materials such as graphite, and then dissipate the heat of the mobile phone processor into the surrounding environment (air). Therefore, there is a problem of poor heat dissipation. Summary of the invention

However, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that in the various embodiments of the present application, many technical details are provided in order to enable the reader to better understand the present application. However, even without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments, the technical solution claimed in the present application can be implemented.

[0026] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation structure is applied to electronic equipment, referring to Figure 1 The connecting portion 112 is bent so that the first heat-conducting layer 111 is opposite to the second heat-conducting layer 113, the second heat-conducting layer 113 is used to fit with the back shell 23 of the electronic device, the first heat dissipation layer 12 is located on the side of the first heat-conducting layer 111 away from the second heat-conducting layer 113, and the first heat dissipation layer 12 is located between the screen 21 of the electronic device and the first heat-conducting layer 111, the second heat dissipation layer 13 is located on the side of the second heat-conducting layer 113 facing the first heat-conducting layer 111, and the second heat dissipation layer 13 is located between the processor 22 of the electronic device and the second heat-conducting layer 113.

[0027] In some embodiments, the connecting portion 112 connects the first heat-conducting layer 111 and the second heat-conducting layer 113, which can ensure that the heat generated by the processor 22 and the screen 21 is directly transferred to the back shell 23 of the electronic device through the inside of the heat-conducting portion 11, thereby avoiding the poor heat dissipation effect caused by the heat generated by the processor 22 and the screen 21 being transferred from the screen 21 to the back shell 23 of the electronic device layer by layer, which is beneficial to heat conduction and cooling of the screen 21 and the processor 22.

[0028] In some embodiments, the heat conducting part 110 is an integrally formed structure; the material of the heat conducting part 110 includes at least one of copper, silver or aluminum. On the one hand, when the heat generated by the processor 22 and the screen 21 is transferred to the rear shell 23 through the inside of the heat conducting part 110, the heat conducting part 110 is an integrally formed structure, which effectively avoids the poor heat dissipation effect caused by the difference in thermal diffusion coefficients of different heat conducting media; on the other hand, the heat conducting part 110 is an integrally formed structure, which can ensure that there is no small gap between the first heat conducting layer 111 and the connecting part 112 and between the second heat conducting layer 113 and the connecting part 112, thereby increasing the contact area, effectively avoiding the generation of heat transfer resistance between the first heat conducting layer and the connecting part and between the second heat conducting layer and the connecting part, which is conducive to improving the problem of poor heat dissipation effect.

[0029] In some embodiments, the first thermally conductive layer 111 is a continuous film layer over the entire surface, which is equivalent to maximizing the effective contact area between the first thermally conductive layer 111 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, so that there is less gap between the first thermally conductive layer 111 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, which is beneficial to reducing the heat transfer resistance between the first thermally conductive layer 111 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency of the first thermally conductive layer 111, which is beneficial to improving the problem of poor heat dissipation effect; in the direction where the second thermally conductive layer 113 points to the first thermally conductive layer 111, the thickness of the first thermally conductive layer 111 ranges from 10um to 100um, specifically 20um, 40um, 50um, 80um or 100um; the material of the first thermally conductive layer 111 includes copper, silver or aluminum.

[0030] In some embodiments, the second heat-conducting layer 113 is in contact with the rear shell 23 of the electronic device, that is, one side of the second heat-conducting layer 113 is in contact with the last layer of heat transfer, so the second heat-conducting layer 113 also has the function of assisting heat dissipation. The second heat-conducting layer 113 may be provided with a hole 114 that penetrates the second heat-conducting layer 113. The hole 114 is provided on the second heat-conducting layer 113. Compared with the second heat-conducting layer 113 without the hole 114, the surface area of ​​the second heat-conducting layer 113 is increased, that is, the area of ​​the inner wall of the hole 114 is increased. The increase in surface area is conducive to the discharge of heat. In addition, heat can be transferred by the gas in the hole 114. The heat conduction effect of air is not as good as that of the second heat-conducting layer 113, that is, the heat transfer resistance between air and the second heat-conducting layer 113 is large. When the heat flow passes through the interface, the heat transfer resistance will greatly reduce the heat transfer efficiency, causing the temperature along the heat flow direction to drop sharply, which is conducive to improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0031] In some embodiments, the porosity of the second thermal conductive layer 113 is in the range of 25% to 45%, specifically 25%, 30%, 35%, 40% or 45%. Opening holes in the second thermal conductive layer 113 can further ensure the thermal conductivity and heat dissipation effects. The porosity of the second thermal conductive layer 113 is less than 50%, which can ensure that the contact area between the second thermal conductive layer 113 and the second heat dissipation layer 13 and the back shell 23 is large, that is, the effective area of ​​heat transfer or heat exchange is large, which is conducive to improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0032] In some embodiments, the holes 114 are arranged in an array on the second heat-conducting layer 113, which is equivalent to the holes 114 being evenly distributed on the second heat-conducting layer 113, ensuring that each part of the second heat-conducting layer 113 is evenly conducting heat and dissipating heat, which is beneficial to improving the heat conduction effect and the heat dissipation effect; the maximum physical size of the hole 114 is ≤5mm, and can be 1mm, 2mm, 3mm or 5mm. The smaller the maximum physical size of the hole 114, the larger the contact area between the second heat-conducting layer 113 and the second heat dissipation layer 13 and the back shell 23, that is, the effective area of ​​heat transfer or heat exchange is larger, which is beneficial to improving the heat dissipation effect. The shape of the hole 114 can be diamond, circular, rectangular, elliptical or annular. The present application does not specifically limit the shape of the hole 114, and it is only necessary to satisfy that the maximum physical size of the hole 114 is ≤5mm.

[0033] In other embodiments, the second heat-conducting layer has a functional area and an edge area. The edge area is located around the second heat-conducting layer and surrounds the functional area. The holes are arranged in an array on the functional area to further ensure the thermal conductivity and heat dissipation effects.

[0034] In some other embodiments, the holes are diffusely arranged on the second heat-conducting layer, and the closer to the edge of the second heat-conducting layer, the greater the distance between adjacent holes, which is equivalent to multiple holes being diffusely arranged with the center of the second heat-conducting layer as the center toward the outer side of the second heat-conducting layer.

[0035] Specifically, in some embodiments, the second heat-conducting layer 113 may be laser grooved to form the hole 114. In other embodiments, a mold may be used to form the second heat-conducting layer with holes. The embodiments of the present application do not specifically limit the method and process for forming the second heat-conducting layer and the holes.

[0036] In some embodiments, the material of the second heat-conducting layer 113 may be the same as that of the first heat-conducting layer 111, which can avoid the poor heat dissipation effect caused by the difference in thermal diffusion coefficients of different heat-conducting media. In other embodiments, the material of the second heat-conducting layer may be different from that of the first heat-conducting layer.

[0037] In some embodiments, in the direction in which the second heat conductive layer 113 points to the first heat conductive layer 111, the thickness of the first heat conductive layer 111 is equal to the thickness of the second heat conductive layer 113. In other embodiments, the thickness of the first heat conductive layer is greater than the thickness of the second heat conductive layer.

[0038] In some embodiments, the connection portion 112 is a continuous film layer on the entire surface, which is equivalent to maximizing the effective contact area between the connection portion 112 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, so that there is less gap between the connection portion 112 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, which is beneficial to reducing the heat transfer resistance between the connection portion 112 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency of the connection portion 112, which is beneficial to improving the problem of poor heat dissipation effect. In addition, the connection portion 112 serves as a medium for heat transfer or heat exchange between the first heat conductive layer 111 and the second heat conductive layer 113. The connection portion 112 is a continuous film layer on the entire surface, that is, the effective area of ​​heat transfer or heat exchange is increased, which is beneficial to improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0039] In other embodiments, the connection portion is provided with a second hole penetrating the connection portion, and the second holes are arranged in a regular array on the connection portion; the size and shape of the second hole can be the same as the size and shape of the hole located in the second heat-conducting layer. In still other embodiments, the connection portion includes an equally divided first part and a second part, the first part of the connection portion is connected to the first heat-conducting layer, the second part of the connection portion is connected to the second heat-conducting layer, the first part is a continuous film layer on the entire surface, and the second part of the connection portion is provided with a third hole penetrating the connection portion, and the third holes are arranged in a regular array on the second part of the connection portion; the size and shape of the third hole can be the same as the size and shape of the hole located in the second heat-conducting layer.

[0040] In some embodiments, the connecting portion 112 serves as a bending portion to connect the first thermal conductive layer 111 and the second thermal conductive layer 113. In the direction in which the second thermal conductive layer 113 points to the first thermal conductive layer 111, the thickness of the connecting portion 112 is greater than the thickness of the first thermal conductive layer 111. The thickness of the connecting portion 112 is greater than the thickness of the second thermal conductive layer 113, which is equivalent to thickening the connecting portion 112. This not only ensures that the connecting portion 112 can withstand multiple bendings without breaking, but also increases the area of ​​the connecting portion 112, that is, the effective area of ​​heat transfer or heat exchange increases, which is beneficial to improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0041] In other embodiments, in the direction in which the second heat-conducting layer points to the first heat-conducting layer, the thickness of the connecting portion is equal to the thickness of the first heat-conducting layer; the thickness of the connecting portion is equal to the thickness of the second heat-conducting layer, that is, only one process step is required for the heat-conducting portion, that is, the second heat-conducting layer is grooved to form a through hole, thereby simplifying the overall process flow.

[0042] In some embodiments, the first heat dissipation layer 12 is used to reduce the poor heat transfer caused by the loose direct contact between the first heat conductive layer 111 and the screen 21 of the electronic device, establish an effective heat conduction channel between the first heat conductive layer 111 and the screen 21 of the electronic device, reduce the heat transfer resistance, and improve the heat dissipation performance. The material of the first heat dissipation layer 12 can be thermally conductive foam; the thickness of the first heat dissipation layer 12 ranges from 0.1mm to 0.5mm, specifically 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm or 0.5mm. In other embodiments, the material of the first heat dissipation layer can be thermally conductive silicone, thermally conductive pads, thermally conductive gels or other thermally conductive interface materials with high specific heat capacity and low thermal resistance.

[0043] In addition, in some embodiments, a thermally conductive filler with good thermal conductivity is added into the first heat dissipation layer 12, which may specifically be carbon nanotubes, graphite, nano-aluminum nitride, micron aluminum powder or boron nitride, which is beneficial to further improve the poor heat dissipation performance.

[0044] In some embodiments, the proportion of the thermally conductive filler dispersed in the first heat dissipation layer 12 can be 10%, 15%, 20% or 30%. The present application does not limit the specific proportion of the thermally conductive filler. It is only necessary that the filling amount of the thermally conductive filler reaches a certain critical value to ensure that a network or chain-like shape is formed in the system, that is, a thermally conductive network chain.

[0045] In some embodiments, the size of the thermally conductive filler may be nanometer-scale or micrometer-scale; the thermally conductive filler may be in the shape of particles, flakes, spheres, fibers, etc.; the present application does not limit the specific size and shape of the thermally conductive filler.

[0046] In some embodiments, the second heat dissipation layer 13 is used to reduce the poor heat transfer caused by the loose direct contact between the second heat conductive layer 113 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, establish an effective heat conduction channel between the second heat conductive layer 113 and the processor 22 of the electronic device, reduce the heat transfer resistance, and improve the heat dissipation performance.

In other embodiments, the material of the second heat dissipation layer 13 can be different from that of the first heat dissipation layer 12; the thickness of the second heat dissipation layer 13 can be different from that of the first heat dissipation layer 12.

[0047] In some embodiments, the thermally conductive filler added to the second heat dissipation layer 13 may be the same as the thermally conductive filler added to the first heat dissipation layer 12, so as to avoid the poor heat dissipation effect caused by the difference in thermal diffusion coefficients of different heat-conducting media. In other embodiments, the thermally conductive filler added to the second heat dissipation layer 13 may be different from the thermally conductive filler added to the first heat dissipation layer 12.

[0049] In some embodiments, the third heat dissipation layer is a thermally conductive coating, so that the second thermally conductive layer 113 is located inside the third heat dissipation layer, that is, the third heat dissipation layer wraps the second thermally conductive layer 113, which is equivalent to increasing the effective area of ​​heat exchange, which is beneficial to improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0050] In other embodiments, the third heat dissipation layer is a graphite film, which can smoothly adhere to any flat and curved surface, thereby reducing the fine gap between the second heat-conducting layer 113 and the back shell 23 of the electronic device, reducing the heat transfer resistance, and improving the heat dissipation performance. In some other embodiments, the material of the third heat dissipation layer can be the same as that of the first heat dissipation layer; the thermal conductive filler added to the third heat dissipation layer can be the same as that added to the first heat dissipation layer; the thickness of the third heat dissipation layer can be the same as that of the first heat dissipation layer, which can avoid the poor heat dissipation effect caused by the difference in thermal diffusion coefficients of different heat-conducting media.

The screen 21 is located on the side of the first heat-dissipating layer 12 away from the first heat-conducting layer 111; the second heat-conducting layer 113 is attached to the rear shell 23, and the connecting portion 112 is attached to the rear shell 23; the processor 22 is located between the first heat-conducting layer 111 and the second heat-dissipating layer 13.

[0063] The following combination Figure 1 , which provides a more detailed explanation of the assembly process of electronic equipment and the heat dissipation principle.

[0064] refer to Figure 1 One side of the first heat dissipation layer 12 contacts the screen 21 through the third adhesive layer, and the other side of the second heat dissipation layer 13 contacts the first thermal conductive layer 111 through the first adhesive layer; one side of the second thermal conductive layer 113 contacts the second heat dissipation layer 13 through the second adhesive layer, and the other side of the second thermal conductive layer 113 contacts the rear shell 23 through the fourth adhesive layer. Therefore, the rear shell 23 of the electronic device is opened by flipping along the side of the electronic device, and in the process of opening the rear shell 23, the second thermal conductive layer 113 and the second heat dissipation layer 13 are flipped together at the same time.

[0065] The first heat dissipation layer 12 transfers the heat generated by the screen 21 to the first heat-conducting layer 111. Part of the heat generated by the processor 22 is absorbed by the first heat-conducting layer 111, and the other part is transferred by the second heat dissipation layer 13 to the second heat-conducting layer 113. The first heat-conducting layer 111 transfers the absorbed heat to the second heat-conducting layer 113 through the connecting portion 112, and finally the second heat-conducting layer 113 transfers the heat to the rear housing 23 for heat dissipation.

[0066] In the above technical solution, the heat generated by the screen 21 and the heat generated by the processor 22 are transmitted through the inside of the heat conducting part 11. The heat conducting part 11 has a small thermal resistance, which is beneficial to quickly conduct the heat generated by the screen 21 and the heat generated by the processor 22, and is beneficial to improving the thermal conductivity and heat dissipation effects, thereby helping to increase the service life of the screen 21 and the processor 22, so it is highly practical.

Any person skilled in the art can make their own changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, so the scope of protection of the present application shall be based on the scope defined in the claims.
