[0002] With the development of technology and the high integration of equipment, the computing power requirement of a single terminal device is increasing, which leads to higher power consumption of the CPU (Central Processing Unit) inside the device. How to dissipate the heat of the CPU to the environment is an important part of the reliability of the device. For general server terminal devices, the heat inside the device is usually blown to the environment by opening the device and using air cooling, but the protection level of such devices is relatively low, and there are problems such as rain erosion and air corrosion during use in outdoor environments, which reduces the service life of the device. Some experts have proposed that the main heat-generating components of the device, such as the CPU, are directly heat-conducted to the metal shell for direct heat dissipation, but the CPU has a large power consumption.

[0041] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives and effects of the present application, the specific embodiments of the present application will be described with reference to the drawings, in which the same reference numerals represent the same parts.

[0042] In this document, "schematic" means "serves as an example, instance or illustration", and any illustration or embodiment described as "schematic" in this document should not be interpreted as a more preferred or more advantageous technical solution.

In addition, in order to make the drawings simple and easy to understand, in some drawings, only one of the parts having the same structure or function is shown schematically, or only one of them is marked.

[0044] In order to solve the problem that the heat dissipation scheme of the heat generating element in the electronic device in the prior art is easy to cause damage to the element, the present application provides an electronic device which adopts a method of causing the part of the circuit board containing the main heat generating element to be locally deformed to ensure the heat dissipation contact between the heat generating element and the shell.

[0045] Figure 1 is an exploded schematic view of the electronic device of the present application. Figure 2a and Figure 2b is a structural schematic view of the circuit board in the electronic device of the present application. As Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 2, one embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, comprising:

[0046] a shell 10;

[0047] a circuit board 20, the circuit board 20 is arranged inside the shell 10, the first heat generating element 21 and the second heat generating element 22 are arranged on the circuit board 20, the heat generation of the first heat generating element 21 is greater than that of the second heat generating element 22;

[0048] The circuit board 20 is fixed to the inner surface of the shell 10 by a fastening device, so that the first heat generating element 21 is attached to the shell 10 and dissipates heat through the shell 10, and the fastening device comprises:

[0049] a first fastening device 31, the first fastening device 31 is adjacent to the first heat generating element 21, the first fastening device 31 fixes the circuit board 20 to the inner surface of the shell 10, and applies pressure to the circuit board in the direction of the inner surface of the shell 10, so that the part of the circuit board 20 containing the first heat generating element 21 is locally deformed to attach to the inner surface of the shell 10; and

[0050] a second fastening device 32, the second fastening device 32 is adjacent to the second heat generating element 22, and the second fastening device 32 fixes the circuit board 20 to the inner surface of the shell 10.

[0051] In the embodiment, the circuit board 20 is fixed to the housing 10 by the fastening device, and the purpose of heat dissipation of the heat generating elements through the housing 10 is achieved by the adhesion of the circuit board 20 to the inner surface of the housing 10. The heat generating elements on the circuit board 20 can include a first heat generating element 21 and a second heat generating element 22, and the first heat generating element 21 has a greater heat generation than the second heat generating element 22. For example, the first heat generating element 21 can be a CPU, and the second heat generating element 22 can be a secondary heat generating element such as a memory stick. The first heat generating element 21 needs to be further cooled by the housing 10.

[0052] The embodiment provides a local deformation of the circuit board 20, so that the deformed part can be kept in adhesion with the inner surface of the housing 10, especially for the part of the first heat generating element 21 which is the main heat generating element. A first fastening device 31 is used to apply a deformation pressure to the circuit board 20, and when the part of the circuit board 20 containing the first heat generating element 21 is fixed to the inner surface of the housing 10 by the first fastening device 31, the first fastening device 31 applies a pressure to the circuit board 20 in the direction of the inner surface of the housing 10, so that the part of the circuit board 20 containing the first heat generating element 21 is deformed in the direction of the inner surface of the housing 10, thereby ensuring the adhesion of the first heat generating element 21 with the inner surface of the housing 10.

[0053] Specifically, the first fastening device 31 can be realized in the form of a spring screw. As shown in Figure 2b The first fastening device 31 is arranged around the first heat generating element 21, for example at the four corners thereof. The first fastening device 31 can include a first screw 311 and a first spring 312 surrounding the first screw 311. When the spring screw is fixed, the circuit board 20 can be locally deformed under the action of the spring pressure to drive the first heat generating element 21 (for example, a CPU) to move towards the inner surface of the housing 10, thereby keeping the adhesion with the inner surface of the housing 10.

[0054] As Figure 3 shown, the inner surface of the housing 10 includes:

[0055] a first connecting portion 11 protruding from the inner surface of the housing 10 for fastening connection with the first fastening device 31; and

[0056] a second connecting portion 12 protruding from the inner surface of the housing 10 for fastening connection with the second fastening device 32;

[0057] The height of the first connecting portion 11 is less than the height of the second connecting portion 12, so that the circuit board 20 has a first gap with the top end of the first connecting portion 11.

[0058] The first connecting part 11 and the second connecting part 12 can be realized in the form of studs for supporting the circuit board 20. When the circuit board 20 is fixed to the inner surface of the shell 10 by the fastening device, the height of the second connecting part 12 determines the position of the circuit board 20, and the bottom surface of the circuit board 20 is attached to the top end of the second connecting part 12, but has a first gap L with the top end of the first connecting part 11. The existence of the first gap provides a deformation space for the partial deformation of the circuit board 20 towards the inner surface of the shell 10, so that the circuit board 20 has the possibility of partial deformation. Then under the pressure of the first spring 312 of the first fastening device 31, the circuit board 20 can be deformed towards the direction of reducing the first gap.

[0059] Specifically, the first fastening device 31 comprises:

[0060] a first screw 311, which is threadedly connected with the first connecting part 11; and

[0061] a first spring 312, which is arranged around the first screw 311 between the first screw 311 and the first connecting part 11, and has a first compression amount when the first screw 311 is connected with the first connecting part 11. The first compression amount is less than or equal to the first gap, so as to avoid the circuit board 20 from being excessively pressed against the first connecting part 11 and being broken.

[0062] The second fastening device 32 can be realized as a common screw, which only plays a role of fixed connection and does not additionally apply pressure to the circuit board 20. Then the circuit board 20 can only be partially deformed at the position connected by the first connecting part 11 and the first fastening device 31.

[0063] Figure 4 is a structural schematic diagram of a second embodiment of the electronic device of the present application. As shown in the figure, the electronic device of the present embodiment comprises: Figure 4

[0064] a shell 10;

[0065] a circuit board 20, which is arranged inside the shell 10, and on which a first heat-generating element 21 and a second heat-generating element 22 are arranged, the heat-generating amount of the first heat-generating element 21 being greater than that of the second heat-generating element 22;

[0066] The circuit board 20 is fixed to the inner surface of the shell 10 by a fastening device, so that the first heat-generating element 21 is attached to the shell 10 and dissipates heat through the shell 10. The fastening device comprises:

[0067] ​a first fastening device 31 adjacent to the first heat generating element 21, the first fastening device 31 fixing the circuit board 20 to the inner surface of the housing 10 and applying a pressure to the circuit board in a direction towards the inner surface of the housing 10 to cause a local deformation of the portion of the circuit board 20 containing the first heat generating element 21 to conform to the inner surface of the housing 10; and

[0068] a second fastening device 32 adjacent to the second heat generating element 22, the second fastening device 32 fixing the circuit board 20 to the inner surface of the housing 10;

[0069] a heat dissipation module 40, the heat dissipation module 40 comprising:

[0070] a first heat dissipation element 41 arranged on the inner surface of the housing 10 and corresponding to the position of the first heat generating element 21, the circuit board 20 being fixed to the inner surface of the housing 10 by the fastening device so that the first heat generating element 21 conforms to the first heat dissipation element 41 and dissipates heat through the first heat dissipation element 41;

[0071] The local deformation of the circuit board 20 increases the contact force between the first heat generating element 21 and the first heat dissipation element 41.

[0072] The first heat dissipation element 41 can be implemented by a metal, such as a copper sheet, having a high thermal conductivity.

[0073] In a preferred embodiment, the first heat dissipation element 41 is adjustably fixed to the inner surface of the housing 10 in a direction perpendicular to the inner surface of the housing 10, the first heat dissipation element 41 moving towards the inner surface of the housing 10 in response to a contact force exceeding a first threshold value, or moving away from the inner surface of the housing 10 in response to a contact force less than the first threshold value.

[0074] To prevent overpressure between the first heat generating element 21 and the first heat dissipation element 41, which can cause damage to the chip, the first heat dissipation element 41 can have a degree of freedom of movement in a direction perpendicular to the inner surface of the housing 10, similar to the first heat generating element 21. When the contact force between the first heat generating element 21 and the first heat dissipation element 41 is too large, the first heat dissipation element 41 moves towards the inner surface of the housing 10 in response to the contact force exceeding the first threshold value, and when the contact force between the first heat generating element 21 and the first heat dissipation element 41 is too small, the first heat dissipation element 41 moves away from the inner surface of the housing 10 in response to the contact force being less than the first threshold value, to maintain close contact between the first heat generating element 21 and the first heat dissipation element 41.

[0075] In particular, as shown in Figure 4 the inner surface of the housing 10 comprises a first recess 13 recessed inwardly, the first recess 13 corresponding in position and shape to the first heat dissipation element 41;

[0076] The first heat-dissipating element 41 is fixed in the first recess 13 of the housing 10 by the third fastening device 33, and the first heat-dissipating element 41 has a second gap with the bottom surface of the first recess 13.

[0077] The fixing mode of the first heat-dissipating element 41 is similar to that of the circuit board 20 around the first heat-generating element 21, and it provides a deformation space through the gap in the local deformation direction of the circuit board 20. And the movement of the first heat-dissipating element 41 is driven by the first heat-generating element 21 which presses it, in order to unload the excessive pressure applied by the first heat-generating element 21, so as to avoid the fracture of the circuit board 20 due to the overpressure caused by the need for heat dissipation.

[0078] Similarly, the third fastening device 33 comprises:

[0079] A third screw 331 which is screwed with the first recess 13; and

[0080] A third spring 332 which is installed around the third screw 331 between the third screw 331 and the first recess 13, and the third spring 332 has a third compression amount when the third screw 331 is installed in the first recess 13, and the third compression amount is less than or equal to the second gap.

[0081] Therefore, the first threshold of the contact force can be determined by the spring force, yield strength coefficient and other parameters of the third spring 332. For example, when the pressure applied by the first heat-generating element 21 to the first heat-dissipating element 41 is greater than the spring force of the third spring 332, the equilibrium state of the third spring 332 changes, the third spring 332 is further compressed, and thereby drives the first heat-dissipating element 41 to move in the direction that makes the second gap smaller, that is, drives the first heat-dissipating element 41 to move in the direction of adhering to the inner surface of the housing 10, and thereby reduces the pressure applied by the first heat-generating element 21 to the first heat-dissipating element 41. However, the movement of the first heat-dissipating element 41 in the direction of adhering to the inner surface of the housing 10 does not make the first heat-dissipating element 41 out of contact with the first heat-generating element 21, but it is a way of dynamically adjusting the contact force.

[0082] Similarly, when the pressure applied by the first heat-generating element 21 to the first heat-dissipating element 41 is less than the spring force of the third spring 332, the equilibrium state of the third spring 332 changes, the spring force of the third spring 332 is released, and thereby drives the first heat-dissipating element 41 to move in the direction that makes the second gap larger, that is, drives the first heat-dissipating element 41 to move in the direction of moving away from the inner surface of the housing 10, and thereby increases the pressure applied by the first heat-generating element 21 to the first heat-dissipating element 41, so as to maintain the contact force with the first heat-generating element 21.

[0083] The electronic device of the embodiment adopts a dynamic adjustment mode of a double-position and double-direction spring screw, so that the good heat conduction capacity of the main chip is ensured, and the chip is prevented from being damaged.

The heat generating amount of the first heat generating element 21 is greater than that of the second heat generating element 22.

[0086] The circuit board 20 is fixed to the inner surface of the outer shell 10 by a fastening device, so that the first heat generating element 21 is attached to the outer shell 10 and dissipates heat through the outer shell 10. The fastening device includes:

[0087] A first fastening device 31 is arranged adjacent to the first heat generating element 21. The first fastening device 31 fixes the circuit board 20 to the inner surface of the outer shell 10 and applies a pressure to the circuit board in the direction of the inner surface of the outer shell 10, so that the portion of the circuit board 20 containing the first heat generating element 21 is locally deformed to attach to the inner surface of the outer shell 10; and

[0088] A second fastening device 32 is arranged adjacent to the second heat generating element 22. The second fastening device 32 fixes the circuit board 20 to the inner surface of the outer shell 10.

The circuit board 20 is fixed to the inner surface of the outer shell 10 by the fastening device, so that the first heat generating element 21 is attached to the first heat dissipation element 41 and dissipates heat through the first heat dissipation element 41.

[0091] A second heat dissipation element 42 is arranged on the inner surface of the outer shell 10 and connected to the first heat dissipation element 41 to form a heat dissipation path for the first heat generating element 21 in combination with the first heat dissipation element 41. The second heat dissipation element 42 avoids the second heat generating element 22.

[0092] The second heat dissipation element 42 can be realized in the form of a heat pipe, which can be one or more, and can be bent, wound, or the like to increase the length of extension and the surface area for heat dissipation as much as possible.

[0095] The circuit board 20 is fixed to the inner surface of the housing 10 by the fastening device, and the second heat generating element 22 has a third gap with the boss 14.

[0096] According to the above technical solution, the embodiment provides a kind of to make the partial deformation of circuit board, to make the part of deformed portion can keep with the adhesion of the inner surface of shell, especially for the part of main heat generating element-first heat generating element.This embodiment provides a kind of first fastening device that can apply deformation pressure to circuit board, when the part of circuit board containing first heat generating element is fixed to the inner surface of shell by first fastening device, it applies the pressure in the direction of the inner surface of shell to circuit board, so that the part of circuit board containing first heat generating element occurs the deformation in the direction of the adhesion of the inner surface of shell, to guarantee the adhesion contact of first heat generating element and the inner surface of shell.

[0097] Further, to guarantee that first heat generating element and first heat dissipating element do not form overpressure, leading to chip damage, first heat dissipating element can be similar to first heat generating element with the moving freedom degree along the direction perpendicular to the inner surface of shell. Then when the contact force between first heat generating element and first heat dissipating element is too large, it moves towards the inner surface of shell in response to the contact force exceeding first threshold value, and when the contact force between first heat generating element and first heat dissipating element is small, it moves in the direction away from the inner surface of shell in response to the contact force less than first threshold value, to keep the close adhesion of first heat generating element and first heat dissipating element.
