Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic equipment technology, and in particular to an irregularly shaped alumina ceramic support. Background Technology

[0002] Alumina ceramics possess high insulation properties, providing reliable insulating support for integrated circuit chips, preventing short circuits, and ensuring normal chip operation. For example, in semiconductor packaging, alumina ceramic substrates isolate the chip from external circuits, ensuring stable signal transmission. Alumina ceramics also exhibit excellent mechanical properties and dimensional stability, making them suitable as mounting substrates for electronic components. Multilayer ceramic substrates, for instance, can integrate multiple electronic components, enabling miniaturization and high performance in electronic devices.

[0003] In the field of electronic devices, with the continuous increase in chip integration and power density, the large amount of heat generated by internal heat-generating components, if not dissipated in time, will seriously affect the performance and lifespan of electronic devices. Traditional heat dissipation structures typically employ standardized designs, making it difficult to closely fit the complex layout of heat-generating components within electronic devices, resulting in low heat dissipation efficiency. For example, there is a large air gap between conventional heat sinks and heat-generating components, and the low thermal conductivity of air greatly hinders effective heat conduction. Furthermore, existing heat dissipation materials and structures lack sufficient adaptability when dealing with irregularly shaped heat-generating components. While some flexible heat dissipation materials can fit the surface of heat-generating components to a certain extent, their own thermal conductivity is limited and cannot meet the heat dissipation requirements of high-power electronic devices.

[0027] Reference Figure 1-4 An irregularly shaped alumina ceramic support, comprising an alumina ceramic body 1, wherein the shape of the alumina ceramic body 1 is customized according to the layout and space constraints of the internal heating elements of the electronic device;

[0028] A flexible heat dissipation layer 2 is disposed on the surface of the alumina ceramic body 1 that contacts the heating element. The flexible heat dissipation layer 2 is made of a high thermal conductivity silicone material, which can automatically deform and fit according to the surface shape of the heating element. The flexible heat dissipation layer 2 is fixed to the surface of the alumina ceramic body 1 that contacts the CPU through a composite process. The high thermal conductivity silicone material has a thermal conductivity of 5 W / (m·K), and can automatically deform and fit according to the slight undulations of the CPU surface during installation, eliminating air gaps and improving heat transfer efficiency. The composite process uses hot pressing to tightly bond the silicone to the alumina ceramic body 1 under certain temperature and pressure conditions.

[0029] Microchannel structure 3 is provided inside the alumina ceramic body 1. The microchannel structure 3 is reserved during the forming of the ceramic blank. The channel is filled with a high thermal conductivity liquid. During the 3D printing forming process of the ceramic blank, the microchannel structure 3 is reserved. The microchannel is distributed in a serpentine shape and the channel diameter is 1mm to increase the contact area between the high thermal conductivity liquid and the ceramic body and improve the heat dissipation effect.

[0030] The circulation interface 4 is disposed on the alumina ceramic body 1 and connected to the microchannel structure 3. It is used to connect an external driving device to drive the circulation of the high thermal conductivity liquid. The interface adopts a threaded connection.

[0031] The sealing structure 5 is located at the inlet and outlet of the microchannel structure 3 to prevent leakage of highly thermally conductive liquid.

[0032] To address the irregular shape of the server CPU and the layout of its surrounding circuit boards, an alumina ceramic body 1 was formed using 3D printing. A ceramic raw material with an alumina content of 99.5% was selected to ensure the body possesses high thermal conductivity and mechanical strength. During the printing process, computer-aided design (CAD) software was used to optimize the shape, size, and distribution of the microchannel structure 3 based on the CPU's external shape and heat dissipation requirements. The final surface roughness Ra of the formed alumina ceramic body 1 was controlled at 0.6 μm, which improves heat conduction efficiency and enhances the bonding strength with the flexible heat dissipation layer 2.

[0033] Furthermore, the alumina ceramic body 1 is formed using 3D printing technology, and the shape, size, and distribution of the microchannel structure 3 are optimized according to the shape of the alumina ceramic body 1 and the heat dissipation requirements.

[0034] Furthermore, the high thermal conductivity liquid is a low melting point metal liquid, such as gallium indium tin alloy, which has a melting point of 15°C and a boiling point as high as 1300°C, and can efficiently transfer heat within the normal operating temperature range of the CPU.

[0035] Furthermore, the flexible heat dissipation layer 2 is fixedly connected to the alumina ceramic body 1 through a composite process.

[0036] Furthermore, the driving device is a micro-circulation pump with a flow rate of 50 mL / min, which can stably drive the low-melting-point molten metal in the microchannel to circulate and quickly remove the heat generated by the CPU.

[0037] Furthermore, the alumina content in the alumina ceramic body 1 is not less than 95%, and the surface roughness Ra of the alumina ceramic body 1 is ≤0.8μm, so as to improve the heat conduction efficiency and the bonding strength with the flexible heat dissipation layer 2.

[0038] Furthermore, the sealing structure 5 includes an O-ring 6 and a sealing layer 7 disposed at the inlet and outlet of the microchannel. The O-ring 6 is made of fluororubber material that is resistant to high temperature and high thermal conductivity liquid corrosion. The sealing layer 7 is coated on the outside of the O-ring 6 to further enhance the sealing effect.

[0039] In summary, for high-performance server CPUs, an irregularly shaped alumina ceramic support component is designed and manufactured. The alumina ceramic body 1 is formed using 3D printing technology with high-purity raw materials. The microchannels are optimized by CAD to control surface roughness and improve performance. The flexible heat dissipation layer 2 is made of high thermal conductivity silicone and is achieved by hot-pressing composite to achieve a tight fit. The microchannels are filled with low-melting-point molten metal. The circulation interface 4 is connected to a micro circulation pump to drive liquid circulation. The O-rings 6 and the sealing adhesive layer 7 at the inlet and outlet constitute a sealing structure 5, which effectively improves the stability and service life of the server.
