Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of metal radiators, in particular to a liquid metal radiator for computers. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of computer technology, CPU performance continues to improve, and the heat generated during operation has also increased accordingly. To ensure stable CPU operation, effective heat dissipation measures have become crucial. Traditional heat dissipation methods, such as air cooling, can meet heat dissipation needs to a certain extent, but their heat dissipation effect is often unsatisfactory when facing high-performance CPUs. Therefore, liquid metal heat sinks, as a new heat dissipation method, have gradually attracted attention due to their excellent thermal conductivity.

[0003] Liquid metal heat sinks use liquid metal coated on the CPU and utilize the high thermal conductivity of liquid metal to quickly transfer heat generated by the CPU to the heat sink, which is then discharged through the cooling fan. However, in actual application, liquid metal heat sinks also face some problems. First, the cooling fan easily absorbs dust during operation, which not only reduces the cooling effect, but also increases the fan's operating noise and even shortens the fan's lifespan. Second, the contact area between the liquid metal and the heat sink is limited, which limits the heat conduction efficiency, thereby affecting the cooling effect. Utility Model Content

[0038] The following is a further detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with the full text:

[0039] Example 1:

[0040] Combined with attachment Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment provides a liquid metal radiator for a computer, including a heat dissipation fin 1 composed of several groups of aluminum sheets for increasing the heat dissipation area of ​​the computer CPU, and a heat dissipation fan 2 for blowing out the heat absorbed by the heat dissipation fin 1 to cool the CPU.

[0041] In order to increase the heat dissipation effect on the CPU, a connecting component is arranged. The connecting component includes a connecting copper tube 401 that penetrates and is fixed on the heat dissipation fins 1 for fixing multiple groups of heat dissipation fins 1 and transferring heat.

[0042] As a preferred embodiment, the connecting component also includes: a contact piece 402, fixedly connected to the end of the connecting copper tube 401 away from the heat sink 1 for attaching to the CPU for heat dissipation; a square groove 403, arranged on the contact piece 402 for increasing the contact area with the liquid metal coated on the CPU.

[0043] As a preferred embodiment, the connecting copper tubes 401 are provided in several groups and are evenly distributed on both sides of the contact piece 402 symmetrically, and the square grooves 403 are provided in several groups.

[0044] It should be noted that the top and bottom of the connecting copper tube 401 both pass through the heat sink 1, the size of the contact piece 402 is smaller than the size of the heat sink, the position where the contact piece 402 is connected to the connecting copper tube 401 is set in an arc shape, and the square groove 403 does not pass through the contact piece 402 to prevent the liquid metal from being squeezed beyond the position of the contact piece 402. The liquid metal is evenly applied on the CPU, and then the contact piece 402 is pressed onto the CPU so that the square groove 403 and the area below the contact piece 402 are evenly coated with liquid technology, and fixed to the computer motherboard with screws through the fixing plate (not shown) extended from the heat sink 1.

[0045] Example 2:

[0046] On the basis of embodiment 1, a fixing component is arranged to enhance the heat dissipation effect on the CPU. The fixing component includes a connecting rod 301 rotatably connected to the heat dissipation fan 2 for mounting the heat dissipation fins 1 and the heat dissipation fan 2 .

[0047] As a preferred embodiment, the fixing assembly also includes: a handle 302, fixed to the end of the connecting rod 301 away from the cooling fan 2, used to press the connecting rod 301 to clamp it on the cooling fin 1; a groove 303, arranged on both sides of the cooling fin 1; a clamping groove 304, arranged in the groove 303, used to clamp the connecting rod 301 and thereby fix the cooling fan 2 to the cooling fin 1.

[0048] As a preferred embodiment, two groups of connecting rods 301 are provided and distributed on both sides of the cooling fan 2 . The connecting rods 301 are ductile and are located between the two groups of aluminum sheets when they are clamped on the cooling fins 1 .

[0049] It should be noted that when installation is required, it is necessary to first snap one set of handles 302 into the slots 304, and then snap another set of handles 302 into place so that the cooling fan 2 is completely fitted to the cooling fins 1. Since the connecting rod 301 and the handles 302 have a certain degree of ductility, they will provide a pulling force to the cooling fan 2 toward the cooling fins 1 after being fixed, so that the cooling fan 2 can be fixed. The heat of the CPU can be transferred to the cooling fins 1 by connecting the copper tube 401. The cooling fan 2 installed on the side can make the heat dissipation effect better, and the hot air can be blown out through the spacing inside the cooling fins 1.

[0050] Example 3:

[0051] On the basis of Example 1 and Example 2, a dustproof component is arranged to prevent dust from adhering to the cooling fan 2 during use, thereby reducing the heat dissipation effect. The dustproof component includes a dustproof net 201 arranged on one side of the cooling fan 2 for dust prevention.

[0052] As a preferred embodiment, the dustproof component also includes: a fixing hole 202, arranged on the dustproof net 201 for installing the dustproof net 201; a fixing bolt 203, fixed to the cooling fan 2 for inserting the fixing hole 202 on the dustproof net 201; a nut 204, threadedly connected to the fixing bolt 203 for fixing the dustproof net 201 inserted on the fixing bolt 203.

[0053] As a preferred embodiment, there are four groups of fixing holes 202 and fixing bolts 203 and they are evenly distributed. The dustproof net 201 is located on the side of the cooling fan 2 away from the cooling fins 1, and the size of the dustproof net 201 is consistent with the size of the cooling fan 2.

[0054] It should be noted that when the cooling fan 2 is started, the external cold air will be absorbed through the dustproof net 201 to blow out the hot air on the cooling fins 1. At this time, the dustproof net 201 will block the external dust from entering. The dust attached to the cooling fan 2 is not convenient to clean, but it is convenient to clean it on the dustproof net 201. The dustproof net 201 will have a certain impact on the air intake of the cooling fan 2, which can be solved by increasing the power of the cooling fan 2. The dustproof net 201 is fixed by four sets of fixing bolts 203 and nuts 204. The four corners are fixed with strong stability and can also be disassembled to clean the cooling fan 2.

[0055] The operation steps are as follows: when the CPU is coated with liquid metal so that the contact piece 402 is completely attached to the CPU, the device is fixedly installed on the computer motherboard. The heat of the CPU is transferred to the connecting copper tube 401 through the contact piece 402 and evenly distributed to the heat dissipation fin 1. At this time, the cooling fan 2 is started to suck air from one side of the dustproof net 201, and then the heat on the heat dissipation fin 1 is blown away through the gap between the heat dissipation fins 1 to cool the CPU. At this time, the dustproof net 201 will block external dust. When cleaning is needed, you only need to wipe the dust on the dustproof net 201. If there is too much dust, you can first remove the four sets of nuts 204 and then remove the dustproof net 201 from the fixing bolts 203 and clean it separately.

[0056] The above description of the present invention and its embodiments is non-limiting. What is shown in the full text is only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if a person skilled in the art is inspired by this and, without departing from the purpose of the present invention, designs a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution without creatively designing, they shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
