Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radiators, specifically to a modular radiator that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] An air-cooled CPU cooler is a combination cooler consisting of heat sink fins, heat pipes, and a fan. It works by absorbing the heat emitted by the CPU through contact plates, and then transferring the heat to the heat sink fins through the heat pipes, where it is dissipated by the heat sink fins and the fan.
[0003] This type of combined heatsink has a simple structure and good heat dissipation performance, making it the most widely used CPU heatsink. However, it also has some problems. For example, after prolonged use, dust will adhere to the surface of the heatsink fins, causing a significant decrease in the heat dissipation function of the heatsink fins. Although this type of heatsink is easy to install and remove, cleaning the heatsink fins is very difficult. Therefore, a new type of combined structure is needed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model aims to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background section above, and proposes the following technical solutions:
[0005] A modular heatsink designed for easy installation includes a cooling fan, several heat dissipation fins, a fin base, two heat pipes, a contact plate, and a fixing cover ring. The fin base has several fin slots arranged in a circular array. A fan mounting slot is located in the center of the fin base and communicates with the fin slots. A screw insertion hole is located in the center of the fan mounting slot. Heat pipe inlets are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the fin base. The two heat pipes are positioned above the fin base, with their ends passing through the two heat pipe inlets below the fin base and connected to the contact plate.
[0006] The heat dissipation fins have a structure that is smaller at the front end and larger at the rear end. A front fixing block is provided at the bottom of the front end of the heat dissipation fins, and a rear fixing block is provided at the bottom of the rear end of the heat dissipation fins. A heat pipe slot is provided at the bottom middle of the heat dissipation fins. The position and size of the heat pipe slot correspond to the position and size of the heat pipe. The heat dissipation fins are located in the fin slots on the fin base. The front fixing block is located in the fan mounting slot. The heat pipe is located in the heat pipe slot. The fixing cover ring is threaded to the outer circumference of the fin base. The rear fixing block is located below the fixing cover ring.
[0007] The cooling fan is fixed in the fan mounting slot, and the front fixing block at the front end of the heat dissipation fins is located between the cooling fan and the fan mounting slot.
[0008] Preferably, mounting plates are provided on both sides of the contact piece.
[0009] Preferably, the top of the heat pipe slot has a semi-circular structure.
[0010] Preferably, the height of the front fixing block and the rear fixing block is the same as the height of the fin slot.
[0011] Preferably, the connection between the front and rear ends of the heat dissipation fins is an arc-shaped structure.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. By setting up a fin base and fin slots on the fin base, the heat sink can be freely installed and removed from the heat sink through the fin slots. The heat sink is also fixed at the front and rear ends by the cooling fan and the fixing cover ring, making the heat sink easy to disassemble and clean.
[0014] 2. By setting the top of the heat pipe slot to a semi-circular structure, making it consistent with the shape of the heat pipe, the shaking of the heat pipe can be reduced, thus reducing the noise during the operation of the heat sink.
[0015] 3. By setting the height of the front and rear fixing blocks to be consistent with the height of the fin slots, the gap between the front and rear fixing blocks of the heat sink fins and the cooling fan and fixing cover ring can be reduced, thereby reducing the noise generated by vibration during the operation of the heat sink.
[0016] 4. The arc-shaped structure at the connection between the front and rear ends of the heat dissipation fins not only makes the heat dissipation fins easier to clean, but also increases the heat dissipation area of the heat dissipation fins, resulting in better heat dissipation.

A heat pipe slot 2-3 is set at the bottom of the middle of the heat dissipation fin 2. The position and size of the heat pipe slot 2-3 correspond to the position and size of the heat pipe 4. The heat dissipation fin 2 is located in the fin slot 3-1 on the fin base 3. The front fixing block 2-1 is located in the fan mounting slot 3-2. The heat pipe 4 is located in the heat pipe slot 2-3.

[0028] The cooling fan 1 is fixed in the fan mounting slot 3-2, and the front fixing block 2-1 at the front end of the heat dissipation fin 2 is located between the cooling fan 1 and the fan mounting slot 3-2.
[0029] In actual operation, S1, when installing, first place the heat pipe 4 on the fin base, and connect the two ends of the heat pipe 4 through the heat pipe inlet 3-4 to the contact piece 5. Then, insert the heat dissipation fins 2 into the fin slots 3-1 on the fin base 3 in sequence.

[0030] S2. Place the cooling fan 1 in the fan mounting slot 3-2.
