The heat conducting structure is the heat conducting structure as described in any one of the above, and the heat conducting copper block in the heat conducting structure is arranged corresponding to the heat generating component.
[0019] The technical solution of the present utility model is to use some of the locking pieces to fix some of the elastic pieces to the heat dissipation housing, and the remaining locking pieces are used to restrict the movement of the remaining elastic pieces to the heat dissipation housing, so that all the elastic pieces in the heat conducting structure will not be fully locked during installation.

[0037] The present utility model provides a heat conduction structure, referring to Figure 1 , which is applied to an electronic device having a heat generating component, where the heat generating component can be a CPU.
[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the heat conduction structure includes:
[0039] A heat dissipation housing 100, where the heat dissipation housing 100 has heat dissipation fins;
[0040] A heat conduction component 200, including a heat conduction copper block 210 and n elastic pieces 220 fixedly arranged together, where n is greater than or equal to 3. The heat conduction copper block 210 is arranged corresponding to the heat generating component 510 and is in contact with it for dissipating heat from the heat generating component 510. Further, when the electronic device is in use, the heat generated by its heat generating component 510 can be absorbed by the heat conduction copper block 210, so that the heat conduction copper block 210 has a heat dissipation effect on the heat generating component 510. Specifically, when the heat generating component 510 is a CPU, the heat generated by the CPU at this time can be absorbed by the heat conduction copper block 210, so that the heat conduction copper block 210 has a heat dissipation effect on the CPU.
[0041] n locking members 300 are provided in one-to-one correspondence with the n elastic pieces 220. Some of the locking members 300 are used to fix some of the elastic pieces 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100, and the remaining locking members 300 are used to restrict the movement of the remaining elastic pieces 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100. Further, the heat-conducting copper block 210 and the elastic piece 220 are installed at one end of the heat dissipation housing 100 facing away from the heat dissipation fins. In this embodiment, some of the elastic pieces 220 are fixed to the heat dissipation housing by some of the locking members 300, and the remaining locking members 300 restrict the movement of the remaining elastic pieces 220 to the heat dissipation housing. At this time, when the heat-conducting copper block 210 absorbs heat and transfers the heat to the elastic piece 220, it is deformed by heat. At this time, the elastic piece 220 restricted to move in the heat dissipation housing 100 has a certain range of movement when deformed by heat, so that the elastic piece 220 can have more deformation space, avoiding the situation where the elastic force generated by the elastic piece 220 is large, the deformation is small, and it is not conducive to controlling the pressing force, and thus can solve the technical problems existing in the prior art. In this embodiment, for the range of movement a (see Figure 4 ) of the elastic piece 220 restricted to move in the heat dissipation housing 100 is 0.2 mm - 0.3 mm. Further, when the range of movement is too small, it will cause the problem of small deformation of the elastic piece 220. When the range of movement is too large, there will be a problem that the space occupied by the locking member 300 is relatively large. At the same time, in this embodiment, some of the locking members 300 fix some of the elastic pieces 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100. At this time, during the impact and vibration process of the heat conduction structure, under the action of this part of the locking members 300, the situation of the heat-conducting copper block 210 sliding can be avoided, preventing the side-sliding of the heat-conducting copper block 210 from affecting the heat dissipation performance during the impact and vibration experiment; it can enable the electronic device to apply this heat conduction structure and ensure its heat dissipation effect when used in a vibration environment, avoiding the problem that the existing heat dissipation structure cannot dissipate heat well in a vibration environment.
[0042] The technical solution of the present utility model adopts some of the locking members 300 to fix some of the elastic pieces 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100, and the remaining locking members 300 are used to restrict the movement of the remaining elastic pieces 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100, so that all the elastic pieces 220 in the heat conduction structure are not all locked during installation. At this time, when the heat-conducting copper block 210 absorbs heat and transfers the heat to the elastic piece 220, it is deformed by heat. At this time, the elastic piece 220 restricted to move in the heat dissipation housing 100 has a certain range of movement when deformed by heat, so that the elastic piece 220 can have more deformation space, facilitating the heat-conducting copper block 210 to control the pressing force, ensuring the heat dissipation effect, avoiding the situation where the elastic force generated by the elastic piece 220 is large, the deformation is small, and it is not conducive to controlling the pressing force, and thus can solve the technical problems existing in the prior art.
[0043] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2When n is equal to four, both the locking member 300 and the restricting member 400 are configured to be two.
[0044] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2 、 Figure 5 In one embodiment, both the locking member 300 and the restricting member 400 are configured as screws. Wherein, when the locking member 300 is used to fix the elastic piece 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100, at this time, the screw penetrates through the elastic piece 220 and is connected to the heat dissipation housing 100. At this time, the elastic piece 220 cannot move between the screw and the heat dissipation housing 100. When the restricting member 400 is used to restrict the movement of the elastic piece 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100, at this time, the screw penetrates through the elastic piece 220 and is connected to the heat dissipation housing 100. At this time, the elastic piece 220 can move between the screw and the heat dissipation housing 100.
[0045] However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, n can also be equal to three. When n is equal to three, the locking member 300 is configured as one, and at this time, the restricting member 400 is configured as two; or the locking member 300 is configured as two, and the restricting member 400 is configured as one.
[0046] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2 In this embodiment, the locking member 300 for fixing the two elastic pieces 220 to the heat dissipation housing 100 is provided on one side of the heat-conducting copper block 210. Specifically, the two restricting members 400 are provided on the other side of the heat-conducting copper block 210. In this way, when the heat-conducting component 200 is heated, when all the elastic pieces 220 connected to the heat-conducting copper block 210 deform, since the two elastic pieces 220 provided on the same side of the heat-conducting copper block 210 are both restricted in movement to the heat dissipation housing 100, at this time, the two elastic pieces 220 can be unrestricted from each other during deformation, thereby ensuring their deformation range, and thus facilitating the control of the pressing force of the heat-conducting copper block 210.
[0047] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 6 The heat-conducting component 200 further includes a first heat-conducting layer 250. The first heat-conducting layer 250 is provided between the heat-conducting copper block 210 and the heating element 510. Under the action of the first heat-conducting layer 250, the heat of the heating element 510 can be conducted to the heat-conducting copper block 210. In this way, the installation accuracy of the heat-conducting copper block 210 during installation can be reduced. Specifically, there can be a certain gap between the heat-conducting copper block 210 and the heating element 510, and the first heat-conducting layer 250 can be filled in this gap, and the heat of the heating element 510 is transferred to the heat-conducting copper block 210 through the first heat-conducting layer 250.
[0048] In one embodiment, the first heat-conducting layer 250 is configured as a heat-conducting silicone grease layer. The heat-conducting silicone grease can improve the heat conduction efficiency, reduce the heat accumulation at the interface, further lower the temperature of the heat-generating component 510, and improve the stability of the electronic device. At the same time, under the action of the heat-conducting silicone grease, the problem of reduced heat conduction caused by insufficient surface accuracy of the heat-conducting copper block 210 and the heat-generating component 510 can also be compensated for.
[0049] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , the heat-conducting component 200 includes a heat pipe 230. The heat pipe 230 is connected to the heat-conducting copper block 210, and the heat pipe 230 is fixed to the heat dissipation housing 100. In this embodiment, the heat pipe 230 is used to transfer the heat of the heat-conducting copper block 210 to the heat dissipation housing 100. That is to say, the heat absorbed by the heat-conducting copper block 210 can be transferred to the heat dissipation housing 100 through the heat pipe 230. Under the action of the heat pipe 230, it is convenient for the heat-conducting copper block 210 to dissipate heat better.
[0050] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , the heat pipe 230 is fixed to the heat dissipation housing 100 through a heat pipe pressing piece 240. The heat pipe pressing piece 240 and the heat dissipation housing 100 are fixed together by screwing. Specifically, the heat pipe 230 is installed on the heat dissipation housing 100, and then the heat pipe pressing piece 240 is fixed to the heat dissipation housing 100 by screwing. After the pressing piece is fixed, the pressing piece fixes the heat pipe 230 to the heat dissipation housing 100.
[0051] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 6 , in order to improve the heat conduction efficiency between the heat pipe 230 and the heat dissipation housing 100, a second heat-conducting layer 260 is provided between the heat pipe 230 and the heat dissipation housing 100. Under the action of the second heat-conducting layer 260, it is convenient for the heat in the heat pipe 230 to be transferred to the heat dissipation housing 100 better.
[0052] In one embodiment, the second heat-conducting layer 260 is configured as a heat-conducting silicone grease layer. The heat-conducting silicone grease can improve the heat conduction efficiency between the heat pipe 230 and the heat dissipation housing 100, reduce the heat accumulation at the interface, further lower the temperature of the heat-generating component 510, and improve the stability of the electronic device. At the same time, under the action of the heat-conducting silicone grease, the problem of reduced heat conduction caused by insufficient surface accuracy of the heat pipe 230 and the heat dissipation housing 100 can also be compensated for.
[0053] The present utility model also proposes an electronic device, referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6, the electronic device includes a heating element 510 and a heat conduction structure. For the specific structure of the heat conduction structure, refer to the above embodiments. Since this electronic device adopts all the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be elaborated here one by one. Among them, the heat conduction copper block 210 in the heat conduction structure is arranged corresponding to the heating element 510. The heating element 510 is installed on the main board 500, and the main board 500 is fixedly arranged in the heat dissipation housing 100 by means of screw fastening.
[0054] Further, in this embodiment, the electronic device can be a mobile device, an in-vehicle electronic device, a medical device, or other devices used in a vibrating environment.
