[0027] The connection mechanism includes: a docking unit and a rotating unit;

[0028] The docking unit is provided on the docking end surface of the heat sink 1 and the fixed housing 2, the rotating unit is distributed on the docking unit on the heat sink 1 and the fixed housing 2, and the docking unit distributed on the heat sink 1 and the fixed housing 2 is staggered after the rotating unit rotates ninety degrees;

[0029] The docking unit in the offset state is used to fix the fixed housing 2 to the end of the heat sink 1 .

[0030] In this embodiment: when docking the fixed shell 2 with the heat sink 1, the two parts of the docking unit distributed on the fixed shell 2 and the heat sink 1 are docked until the two parts of the docking unit are completely overlapped, and then a thrust is applied to the rotating unit, and the rotating unit moves along the axial direction of the docking unit. After the rotating unit moves to the maximum displacement distance, a rotational force is applied to the rotating unit to realize the rotation of the rotating unit. After the rotating unit is rotated ninety degrees, the thrust applied to the rotating unit is removed. At this time, the rotating unit is reset, and the locking of the docking unit is completed. Then, the fixed shell 2 can be installed on the heat sink 1. This installation method is quick and convenient.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The docking unit includes a docking hole 7 provided on the docking surface of the heat sink 1 and fixed feet 3 formed and fixed at the four corners of the housing 2, and a docking column 6 is rotatably connected at the center of the fixed foot 3;

[0032] A limiting block 8 is formed on the end of the outer wall of the docking column 6, and a guide groove for the limiting block 8 to slide is opened on the inner wall of the docking hole 7.

[0033] In this embodiment: when docking the two parts of the docking unit distributed on the fixed shell 2 and the heat sink 1, align the limit block 8 with the opening of the accommodating groove, and align the docking column 6 with the docking hole 7, and then push the docking column 6 into the docking hole 7. At this time, the limit block 8 slides along the guide groove until the docking column 6 completely enters the docking hole 7.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 5 The guide groove includes an upper horizontal groove 9 and a lower horizontal groove 11 formed on the inner wall of the docking hole 7, an arc groove 10 is formed at one end of the upper horizontal groove 9 aligned with the lower horizontal groove 11, and both ends of the arc groove 10 are connected to the inner wall of the end of the upper horizontal groove 9 aligned with the lower horizontal groove 11;

[0035] The other end of the upper horizontal groove 9 is aligned with the open end of the docking hole 7, and the other end of the lower horizontal groove 11 is aligned with the end of the limit block 8 in the inserted state and not extended, and the end of the limit block 8 is the end that is misaligned with the docking column 6;

At this time, the docking column 6 drives the connecting plate 12 to move axially in the circular groove 14. During the movement of the connecting plate 12, the spring 13 is squeezed, and the spring 13 is compressed until the end of the docking column 6 contacts the end of the inner wall of the docking hole 7. At this time, the docking column 6 moves to the maximum displacement distance;

[0039] Then, the docking column 6 is rotated by a tool, and the docking column 6 drives the limit block 8 to rotate downward. At this time, the limit block 8 rotates into the lower horizontal groove 11 through the arc groove 10, and then the force applied to one end of the docking column 6 is removed, and the spring 13 pushes the connecting plate 12 to reset in the circular groove 14, and the connecting plate 12 drives the docking column 6 to move, and the docking column 6 drives the limit block 8 to be stuck in the closed end of the lower horizontal groove 11;

[0040] It should be noted that a rubber friction pad is provided at the contact position between the fixed foot 3 and the docking column 6 to increase the rotation resistance of the docking column 6 and prevent the docking column 6 from rotating without human force.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 6 A hexagonal hole is provided at the center of the docking column 6 which is aligned with the non-docked surface of the fixed housing 2 .

[0042] In this embodiment, a hexagonal wrench is used to connect with the hexagonal hole, and rotating the hexagonal wrench can drive the docking column 6 to rotate.
