Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat sinks, in particular to an assembleable metal heat sink. Background Art

[0002] Heat sinks are referred to as heat sinks. In the field of electronic engineering design, they are classified as "passive heat dissipation components". They are made of metals with good thermal conductivity, light weight, and easy processing (mostly aluminum or copper, silver is too expensive and generally not used) attached to the heating surface to dissipate heat in a composite heat exchange mode. They can be used for CPU (circuit board) heat dissipation. The heat dissipation of the CPU (circuit board) is mainly achieved by conduction. After the heat sink absorbs the heat, it dissipates the heat in the form of convection. In the process of convection heat dissipation, the heat dissipation area is mainly determined by the surface area of ​​the heat sink fins. The larger the surface area, the better the heat dissipation effect, and the smaller the surface area, the worse the heat dissipation effect. The commonly used means in the industry mainly include: increasing the number of heat sink fins and increasing the length of the heat sink fins. One of the data reflected is the "thickness-to-height ratio", that is, the ratio of the thickness and height of the heat sink fins. The smaller this value means that the heat sink fins per unit volume can be made denser, the more the number, the larger the effective heat dissipation surface area, and the better the heat dissipation performance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0028] See also Figure 1-6 The utility model provides an assembleable metal heat sink, comprising a heat conducting sheet 1 and a connecting strip 2, wherein the heat conducting sheet 1 is located on one side of a PCB board 3, and a plurality of heat dissipating plates 5 are fixed on the side of the heat conducting sheet 1 away from the PCB board 3;

[0029] Specifically, the heat conducting sheet 1, the connecting strip 2 and the heat sink 5 are all made of aluminum material with low cost, and the aluminum connecting strip 2 has a certain plasticity and can be pressed and shaped according to the shape of the PCB board 3, and is suitable for PCB boards 3 of different sizes.

[0030] Furthermore, the plurality of heat dissipation plates 5 are arranged parallel to each other, and the spacing between adjacent heat dissipation plates 5 is consistent;

[0031] Specifically, the heat sinks 5 arranged in parallel can reduce the wind resistance of the heat dissipation airflow, and the heat sinks 5 effectively expand the heat dissipation area and improve the heat exchange efficiency;

[0032] Optionally, the spacing between the heat sink plates 5 is between 1 cm and 2 cm, which can effectively control the resistance of the heat dissipation airflow while maximizing the use of the surface area of ​​the heat conductive sheet 1, so as to avoid the situation where the gap between the heat sink plates 5 is too small, resulting in a reduction in the flow rate of the heat dissipation airflow in the gap.

[0033] Furthermore, a thermally conductive silicone sheet 4 is sandwiched between the thermally conductive sheet 1 and the PCB board 3;

[0034] Specifically, the operating heat of the PCB board 3 can be transferred to the thermal conductive sheet 1 through the thermal conductive silicone sheet 4, and the thermal conductive sheet 1 disperses the heat to each heat sink 5. The air cooling mechanism can quickly reduce the heat of the PCB board 3 to prevent the PCB board 3 from overheating, and the heat dissipation effect is good. It is worth mentioning that the flexible thermal conductive silicone sheet 4 overcomes the shortcomings of poor thermal conduction between the PCB board 3 and the thermal conductive sheet 1, can fill the contact gap, and can obtain efficient heat conduction effect without adhesive fixation.

[0035] Furthermore, a plurality of limiting posts 12 are provided on one side of the heat conducting sheet 1 away from the heat dissipation plate 5, and corresponding slots are provided on the heat conducting silicone sheet 4 corresponding to the limiting posts 12;

[0036] Specifically, before installation, the thermally conductive silicone sheet 4 is attached to one side of the thermally conductive sheet 1, and the limiting column 12 is embedded in the slot to prevent the thermally conductive silicone sheet 4 from shifting;

[0037] Optionally, a plurality of limiting posts 12 are respectively located at each corner of the thermal conductive sheet 1 , and the limiting posts 12 are interference fit with the slots, so that when the thermal conductive silicone sheet 4 and the thermal conductive sheet 1 are attached, the thermal conductive silicone sheet 4 will not fall off.

[0038] Furthermore, the outer sides of the heat conducting sheet 1 and the PCB board 3 are jointly sleeved with a connecting strip 2, and a limiting groove 11 is provided on a side of the heat conducting sheet 1 away from the PCB board 3, and the width of the limiting groove 11 is consistent with the width of the connecting strip 2;

[0039] Specifically, the limiting groove 11 is located in the gap between two heat sinks 5 . When the connecting strip 2 is bound, the connecting strip 2 is fully matched with the limiting groove 11 , which can prevent the heat conducting sheet 1 from sliding left and right, thus facilitating the assembly process.

[0040] Furthermore, a fastening assembly 6 is connected between the two ends of the connecting strip 2, and the fastening assembly 6 includes a connecting box 61 fixed to one end of the connecting strip 2, and supporting rotating cylinders 62 are fixedly embedded on the inner walls of both sides of the connecting box 61, and a through rod 63 is rotatably connected between the two supporting rotating cylinders 62, and a through groove 64 is provided in the middle of the through rod 63;

[0041] Specifically, the length of the through slot 64 is consistent with the width of the connecting strip 2, and plays a role of limiting and guiding.

[0042] Furthermore, the other end of the connecting strip 2 passes through the connecting box 61 and the through slot 64 to be fixedly connected to the limit stopper 21, and the connecting box 61 is provided with a notch 65 to allow the connecting strip 2 to pass through;

[0043] Specifically, the setting of the limiting stop column 21 enables the through rod 63 to wrap around the connecting strip 2 when rotating.

[0044] Furthermore, a driving box 66 is fixed to one side of the connecting box 61, one end of the through-rod 63 extends into the driving box 66 and is fixedly connected to a driven worm gear 67, the other end of the driving box 66 is rotatably connected to a driving worm 68, the driving worm 68 is transmission-connected to the driven worm gear 67, and one end of the rotating shaft of the driving worm 68 passes through the driving box 66 and is fixedly connected to a knob 69, and a S-shaped groove is provided on the end surface of the knob 69;

[0045] Specifically, using a flat-blade screwdriver to turn the knob 69 forward can drive the driving worm 68 to rotate, the driving worm 68 drives the driven worm wheel 67 to rotate, and the driven worm wheel 67 drives the through-rod 63 to rotate. During this process, the connecting strip 2 is continuously wrapped around the outside of the through-rod 63. Since the driving worm 68 and the driven worm wheel 67 have a one-way self-locking effect, the connecting strip 2 can be fully tightened so that the heat conducting sheet 1 presses the heat conducting silicone sheet 4. Conversely, using a flat-blade screwdriver to turn the knob 69 backward can drive the driving worm 68 to rotate, the driving worm 68 drives the driven worm wheel 67 to rotate, and the driven worm wheel 67 drives the through-rod 63 to rotate. During this process, the through-rod 63 continuously unwinds the connecting strip 2, and the connecting strip 2 can be adjusted to be loose.

[0046] Working principle: when the assembleable metal heat sink is in use, the heat conductive sheet 1, the heat conductive silicone sheet 4 and the PCB board 3 are stacked, and the connecting strip 2 is sleeved on the outside of the three, wherein the limit column 12 is embedded in the limit groove 11, and the connecting strip 2 is embedded in the limit groove 11, which can prevent the heat conductive sheet 1, the heat conductive silicone sheet 4 and the connecting strip 2 from being misplaced. The knob 69 is screwed with a flat-blade screwdriver to drive the driving worm 68 to rotate, and the driving worm 68 drives the driven worm gear 67 to rotate, and the driven worm gear 67 drives the through rod 63 to rotate. In this process, the connecting strip 2 is continuously wrapped around the outside of the through rod 63, and the connecting strip 2 can be fully tightened, so that the heat conductive sheet 1 presses the heat conductive silicone sheet 4, and the operating heat of the PCB board 3 can be transferred to the heat conductive sheet 1 through the heat conductive silicone sheet 4, and the heat conductive sheet 1 disperses the heat to each heat sink 5, and the air cooling mechanism can quickly reduce the heat of the PCB board 3 to prevent the PCB board 3 from overheating, and the heat dissipation effect is good.
