[0002] CPUs generate a lot of heat when working. If this heat isn't dissipated in time, it can cause anything from system crashes to potentially burning out the CPU. CPU coolers are designed to cool the CPU. The cooler plays a crucial role in the stable operation of the CPU, making it essential to choose a good one when assembling a computer. While existing heatsinks are one-piece structures, snap-on heatsinks have been developed to meet different cooling needs.

[0003] The existing snap-fit ​​heat sink and heat conduction plate connection and installation steps are cumbersome, which makes it inconvenient to quickly assemble the heat sink and affects the assembly and use effect of the heat sink. Moreover, the spacing between the heat sinks cannot be adjusted according to the needs, which cannot meet the actual use requirements. Utility Model Content

The limiting grooves 5 on the locking protrusions 4 can be locked onto the outside of the limiting plate 6. The limiting protruding balls 8 on the limiting plate 6 can be locked into the ball grooves 7 in the limiting grooves 5, thereby connecting the heat dissipation plates 1 and the heat conduction plates 2 into a heat dissipation unit. When the locking protrusions 4 and the limiting slots 2 are connected and installed, thermal conductive adhesive can be applied to connect the heat dissipation plates 1 and the heat conduction plates 2 into a heat sink unit to ensure the heat dissipation effect.

[0024] The lower part of the locking protrusion 4 has a sloping structure, and the contact surface between the locking protrusion 4 and the limiting groove 3 is coated with thermally conductive adhesive.

[0025] Thermally conductive adhesive is applied to the contact surface between the limiting plate 6 and the limiting groove 5.

[0026] The working principle of the snap-fit ​​heat sink provided by this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown, during use, the spacing between the heat dissipation plates 1 is adjusted according to the heat dissipation requirements.
