Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radiator technology, and in particular to an ultra-thin radiator. Background Technology

[0002] As we all know, high temperature is the enemy of integrated circuits. The heat that causes these high temperatures doesn't originate from outside the computer, but rather from inside the computer, or more specifically, from within the integrated circuits themselves. Integrated circuits generate a significant amount of heat during operation, requiring effective heat dissipation to ensure their normal function and operation. Existing heat sinks, due to their large size, occupy more space, limiting the design flexibility of devices, especially in space-constrained applications such as laptops and mobile devices. Summary of the Invention

The upper surface of the base has an installation position at its center. The installation position is an irregular ellipse with teardrop-shaped protrusions at its upper and lower ends. The fan is located at the installation position. Several fins are arranged parallel to each other at equal intervals along the circumference of the fan and are integrally formed with the base. Several fins on the left and right sides are spaced equally from the fan. The exhaust direction of the fan is towards the airflow gap between the several fins. The fins are ultra-thin copper spade-shaped teeth.

[0006] Preferably, the base is a heat spreader plate.

[0009] Preferably, the ultra-thin heat sink further includes a mounting component, which includes a mounting plate and fixing screws. The mounting plate is fixed to the mounting position by the fixing screws. The mounting plate has a positioning post at its center, and the fan has a positioning hole. The positioning hole and the positioning post are interlocked to fix the fan.

[0010] Preferably, the mounting component further includes multiple sets of retainers for securing the ultra-thin radiator.

[0011] Preferably, the number of the fixation devices is four sets.

[0012] Preferably, the retainer includes a Phillips head screw and an elastic element, the elastic element passing through the Phillips head screw to ensure that the ultra-thin heat sink is evenly stressed during installation.

[0013] Preferably, the connection between the heat pipe and the fins is achieved by soldering.

[0014] Preferably, the total thickness of the ultra-thin heat sink is 12mm.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the ultra-thin radiator of this invention has the following advantages:

[0016] This application features an ultra-thin heatsink with ultra-thin copper spade-shaped fins. Several fins are arranged parallel to each other at equal intervals along the circumference of the fan and are integrally formed with the base, saving installation space and achieving a lightweight heatsink. The mounting position is an irregular ellipse, with several fins on the upper and lower sides forming an upward-opening parabola with the center line as the axis of symmetry, maximizing the number of fins and ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the fan blowing on the fin surface while increasing the heat absorption carrier.

The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0025] Figures 1-4 This utility model discloses an ultra-thin heat sink, comprising a base 100, a heat pipe 200, several fins 300, and a fan 400. The lower surface of the base 100 is provided with a groove 102, and the heat pipe 200 is located in the groove 102. The upper surface of the base 100 is provided with an installation position 101 at the center. The installation position 101 is an irregular ellipse with teardrop-shaped protrusions at the upper and lower ends. The fan 400 is located at the installation position 101. Several fins 300 are arranged parallel to each other at equal intervals along the circumference of the fan 400 and are integrally formed with the base 100. The exhaust direction of the fan 400 is towards the airflow gap between the several fins 300.

[0026] Specifically, the base 100 is a heat spreader. Due to its unique structure, the heat spreader can more effectively distribute heat to the entire base 100, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency.

[0027] Specifically, the fins 300 feature ultra-thin copper spade teeth. Copper spade teeth have excellent thermal conductivity, and combined with the spade tooth technology, they achieve the maximum heat dissipation area per unit volume, significantly improving overall heat dissipation performance.

[0028] Specifically, the spacing between the fins 300 on the left and right sides and the fan 400 is equal.

[0029] Specifically, several fins 300 on the upper and lower sides are arranged in a parabolic shape with the center line as the axis of symmetry, opening upwards. This maximizes the number of fins 300, increasing the heat absorption carrier while ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the fan 400 blowing onto the surface of the fins 300.

[0030] The ultra-thin heat sink also includes a mounting component 500, which includes a mounting plate 501 and fixing screws 502. The mounting plate 501 is fixed to the mounting station 101 by the fixing screws 502. The mounting plate 501 has a positioning post 5011 at its center. The fan 400 has a positioning hole, which is inserted into the positioning post 5011 to fix the fan 400.

[0031] Mounting component 500 also includes multiple sets of retainers 503, which are used to secure the ultra-thin radiator.

[0032] Specifically, there are four sets of fixtures 503.

[0033] The retainer 503 includes a cross-head screw 5031 and an elastic element 5032, which passes through the cross-head screw 5031 to ensure that the ultra-thin heat sink is evenly stressed during installation.

[0034] Specifically, the elastic element 5032 is a spring.

[0035] The connection between the heat pipe 200 and the fins 300 is achieved by soldering.

[0036] In this embodiment, the ultra-thin heat sink has a total thickness of 12mm, which saves installation space and achieves lightweight design.

[0037] The ultra-thin heatsink also includes a cable connector 600, through which the fan 400 is connected to the power supply.

[0038] In this application, the ultra-thin heatsink is used by cleaning the CPU surface and the heatsink base 100, placing the ultra-thin heatsink base 100 on the CPU, and fixing it with the retainer 503. After installing the mounting plate 501 on the base 100 with the fixing screws 502, the fan 400 is installed on the mounting plate 501, and finally connected to the external power supply through the cable connector 600. In this application, the ultra-thin heatsink has ultra-thin copper spade-shaped fins 300. Several fins 300 are arranged parallel to each other at equal intervals along the circumference of the fan 400 and are integrally formed with the base 100, saving installation space and achieving a lightweight heatsink. The mounting station 101 is an irregular ellipse, and several fins 300 on the upper and lower sides are arranged in a parabolic shape with the center line as the axis of symmetry, maximizing the number of fins 300. This increases the heat absorption carrier while ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the fan 400 blowing on the surface of the fins 300.

[0039] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of this utility model. These are all equivalent modifications and improvements made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of this utility model, and all of these fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
