[0025] Existing low-power complete machines usually rely solely on the casing for heat dissipation. A heat-conducting block is set between the PCB board and the structural casing to dissipate excess heat through the casing, resulting in poor heat dissipation effect.

[0026] The utility model provides a radiator and an electronic device, aiming to achieve an efficient and stable heat dissipation effect.

[0027] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the heat sink 10 is used to dissipate heat from an electronic device. The electronic device includes a housing 20 and a PCB board 30 arranged in the housing 20. The heat sink 10 includes a heat sink 1 and a heat conductor 2. The heat sink 1 is arranged on the PCB board 30 and has a through avoidance opening 111. The heat conductor 2 is inserted into the avoidance opening 111. One end surface of the heat conductor 2 is used to abut against the PCB board 30, and the other end surface of the heat conductor 2 is used to abut against the housing 20.

[0028] In this embodiment, the heat sink 1 can be a heat sink made of metal, or a heat pipe radiator 10 with a phase change material inside. As long as it is a heat dissipation component that can absorb the heat of the PCB board 30 and diffuse it out, no further limitation is made here. The heat conductor 2 mainly conducts the heat of the PCB board 30 to the housing 20 through direct contact between its two end faces and the PCB board 30 and the housing 20, and then dissipates the heat through the housing 20. The heat conductor 2 is made of a metal material with a high thermal conductivity coefficient, such as a copper column or an aluminum column, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency and effect of the heat sink 10. The heat conductor 2 is provided through the avoidance opening 111 opened on the heat sink 1, which can make the volume of the heat sink 10 smaller, and has the advantages of integration and miniaturization.

[0029] The heat sink 10 proposed in the technical solution of the present invention includes a heat sink 1 and a heat conductor 2. The heat sink 1 is arranged on a PCB board 30 and has a through-hole 111 formed therethrough. The heat conductor 2 is inserted into the through-hole 111.

The heat conductor 2 can achieve rapid heat transfer and conduct some heat to the housing 20 for heat dissipation. The heat sink 10 proposed in the present invention can combine active abutment heat conduction heat dissipation with passive heat radiation heat dissipation to achieve efficient and stable heat dissipation.

The fins 12 include a plurality of parallel fins that increase the surface area of ​​the heat sink 1 and thereby improve heat dissipation efficiency. It is understood that in other embodiments, the heat sink 1 may also utilize other types of heat sinks 10, such as a heat pipe heat sink 10.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present invention, the center of the avoidance opening 111 coincides with the center of the main body 11 .

[0033] In this embodiment, an avoidance opening 111 is opened at the center of the main body 11, so that the heat conductor 2 is located in the center of the heat sink 1, and the two sides of the radiator 10 are symmetrically arranged, ultimately making the heat dissipation of the radiator 10 more uniform and improving the heat dissipation efficiency and effect.

[0034] In the embodiment of the present invention, both end surfaces of the heat conducting member 2 are respectively flush with the two surfaces of the heat dissipating member 1 .

[0035] In this embodiment, the two end surfaces of the heat conductor 2 are respectively arranged flush with the two surfaces of the heat sink 1, that is, the two ends of the heat conductor are not exposed on the two surfaces of the heat sink 1. The advantage of such an arrangement is that when the two end surfaces of the heat conductor 2 are attached to the PCB board 30 and the housing 20, the corresponding surfaces of the heat sink 1 are also attached to the PCB board 30 and the housing 20, and the heat sink 1 can also participate in heat conduction and heat dissipation, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the radiator 10.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present invention, the heat sink 10 further includes two thermal pads 3 , one thermal pad 3 is sandwiched between one end surface of the thermal conductive element 2 and the PCB board 30 , and the other thermal pad 3 is sandwiched between the other end surface of the thermal conductive element 2 and the housing 20 .

[0037] In this embodiment, the thermal pad 3 is a flexible material used to fill the gaps between the thermal conductor 2 and the PCB 30, and between the thermal conductor 2 and the housing 20, thereby improving heat conduction efficiency. Of course, in other embodiments, thermal grease or thermal gel may also be used to fill the gaps between the thermal conductor 2 and the PCB 30 or the housing 20, thereby improving heat conduction efficiency.

[0039] In the embodiment, the spring screw 4 is used to connect the radiator 10 and the PCB 30, the connection strength is guaranteed, and a gap is left between the components on the radiator 10 and the PCB 30, so that the components are prevented from being damaged and the PCB 30 is prevented from being invalid.

[0040] In the embodiment of the utility model, the heat dissipation piece 1 is an aluminum extruded fin, and the heat conduction piece 2 is a copper column.

[0041] In the embodiment, the aluminum extruded fin is used as the heat dissipation piece 1, and the copper column is used as the heat conduction piece 2. The specific heat capacity of aluminum is high, the aluminum extruded fin can absorb more heat, and the cost of aluminum is relatively low, so that the cost can be saved when the aluminum extruded fin is manufactured. The thermal conductivity of copper is high, so that the heat can be quickly conducted away, and the heat dissipation efficiency is improved. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the aluminum cast fin, the aluminum cutting fin or the like can be used as the heat dissipation piece 1, and other heat dissipation fins made of other materials, such as a copper heat dissipation fin, can be used. The heat conduction piece 2 can also be made of other metal materials with good heat conduction effect, such as aluminum.

[0042] In the embodiment of the utility model, the heat conduction piece 2 is connected with the heat dissipation piece 1 by welding, hot-pressing or cold-pressing.

[0043] In the embodiment, the heat conduction piece 2 can be fixed in the heat dissipation piece 1 in the following ways. The heat conduction piece 2 is in interference fit with the heat dissipation piece 1, the heat dissipation piece 1 is heated to expand the avoiding opening 111, the heat conduction piece 2 passes through the avoiding opening 111, the temperature returns to normal, the avoiding opening 111 shrinks to cover the heat conduction piece 2, or the temperature of the heat conduction piece 2 is lowered to reduce the size of the heat conduction piece 2, the heat conduction piece 2 passes through the avoiding opening 111, the temperature returns to normal, and the heat conduction piece 2 expands against the avoiding opening 111. In addition, the size of the heat conduction piece 2 is slightly smaller than the size of the avoiding opening 111, the heat conduction piece 2 is first inserted into the avoiding opening 111, and then the two end faces of the heat conduction piece 2 are welded with the edges of the avoiding opening 111, so that the heat conduction piece 2 and the heat dissipation piece 1 are connected as a whole.

[0044] In the embodiment of the utility model, the two end faces of the heat conduction piece 2 and the two surfaces of the heat dissipation piece 1 are provided with an anti-oxidation layer.

[0045] In this embodiment, an anti-oxidation layer is provided on both end surfaces of the thermal conductor 2 and both surfaces of the heat sink 1. This effectively prevents oxidation of the metal material at high temperatures, thereby extending the service life of the heat sink 10 while maintaining its good appearance and performance. The anti-oxidation layer may be an electroplated layer, a chemically plated layer, or an anodized layer, without further limitation herein.
