[0002] A dual-tower heatsink refers to a heat dissipation structure with two sets of fins connected in series by heat pipes. It is commonly used for cooling high-heat integrated modules such as CPUs or GPUs. Furthermore, a mounting slot is provided between the two sets of fins to accommodate a cooling fan.

[0008] According to this utility model, a tilting, fanless dual-tower CPU cooler is provided, wherein the mounting base includes a fastener and a backplate. The fastener is located on the top of the motherboard, and the backplate is located on the bottom of the motherboard. The fastener includes two connecting plates, each with an adjustment hole at both ends. The backplate includes a rectangular frame, with extension arms formed at each of the four corners of the rectangular frame. A slide block is slidably mounted on each extension arm. Adjustment slots are equidistantly formed on the sides of the extension arms. An elastic clip is formed at one end of the slide block near the rectangular frame, and the elastic clip is engaged in the adjustment slot. A second threaded hole is formed on the slide block, and the lower end of a second bolt passes through the adjustment hole and the mounting hole on the motherboard and is threaded into the second threaded hole.
[0009] In a tilting, fan-free dual-tower CPU cooler according to the present invention, a first threaded hole is provided in the middle of the connecting plate, and through holes are provided at both ends of the horizontal plate. The lower end of the first bolt passes through the through hole and is threaded and fixed in the first threaded hole.
[0010] In a tilting, fan-free dual-tower CPU cooler according to the present invention, a spring is sleeved on the lower end of the first bolt, the upper end of the spring abuts against the bottom of the first bolt nut, and the bottom of the spring presses against the horizontal plate.
[0011] In a tilted, fan-free dual-tower CPU cooler according to the present invention, an insulating sleeve is fitted onto the lower end of the second bolt, and the insulating sleeve is located on the top of the motherboard.
[0012] According to the present invention, a tilted, fan-free dual-tower CPU cooler further includes a mounting plate, which is fixed to the top of the cooler body. A digital display module for displaying the real-time temperature of the computer CPU is fixedly embedded inside the mounting plate.
[0013] In a tilted, fan-free dual-tower CPU cooler according to the present invention, the mounting plate has a through hole that communicates with the clearance slot.

[0036] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.
[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 As shown in the embodiments of this utility model,
[0038] A tilting, fanless dual-tower CPU cooler includes a cooler body 1 and a mounting bracket whose installation position can be adjusted according to the motherboard model. The cooler body 1 includes a heatsink 101, a plurality of first heat pipes 102, and a plurality of second heat pipes 103. The evaporation section of the first heat pipes 102 is fixed to one side of the heatsink 101, and the evaporation section of the second heat pipes 103 is fixed to the other side of the heatsink 101. A plurality of first cooling fins 104 are fixedly connected to the condensation section at the upper end of the first heat pipes 102, and a plurality of second cooling fins 104 are fixedly connected to the condensation section at the upper end of the second heat pipes 103. The heat dissipation fins 105, the first heat dissipation fin 104 is fixedly mounted on the side away from the second heat dissipation fin 105, the second heat dissipation fin 107 is fixedly mounted between the first heat dissipation fin 104 and the second heat dissipation fin 105, the top of the heat conduction plate 101 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal plate 1011, the horizontal plate 1011 is fixed to the mounting base by the first bolt 303, the first heat dissipation fin 104 is provided with a clearance groove 1041 for a screwdriver to pass through, the first bolt 303 is located directly below the clearance groove 1041, and the heat conduction plate 101 is not centered.
[0039] When the CPU generates heat, the heatsink 101 contacts the CPU and absorbs the heat. The heat is transferred via thermal conduction to the evaporation sections of the first heat pipe 102 and the second heat pipe 103. The working medium inside the heat pipes evaporates, and the vapor rises to the condensation section. In the condensation section, the vapor transfers heat to the first cooling fin 104 and the second cooling fin 105, cools itself, and condenses into liquid. Under capillary force and gravity, it flows back to the evaporation section, thus achieving efficient heat transfer. The rotation of the first fan 106 and the second fan 107 generates airflow, accelerating the flow of air between the cooling fins and carrying away heat from the fins, thereby cooling the CPU. The clearance slot 1041 on the first cooling fin 104 allows a screwdriver to pass through and operate the first bolt 303, facilitating the installation and removal of the heatsink body 1 from the mounting base. The heatsink 101 is not centered, which solves the problem of not being able to drill vertical holes on the fan. It also allows the first heat pipe 102 and the second heat pipe 103 to be tilted, thus better adapting to the layout of other components on the motherboard and avoiding interference. In particular, it does not take up space for some taller memory modules.
[0040] In this embodiment, the mounting base includes a fastener 3 and a back plate 4. The fastener 3 is located on the top of the main board, and the back plate 4 is located on the bottom of the main board. The fastener 3 includes two connecting plates 301, and both ends of the connecting plates 301 are provided with adjustment holes 302. The back plate 4 includes a rectangular frame 401, and each of the four corners of the rectangular frame 401 is formed with an extension arm 402. A slide block 403 is slidably mounted on the extension arm 402. Adjustment slots 4021 are equidistantly provided on the side of the extension arm 402. An elastic clip 4031 is formed at one end of the slide block 403 near the rectangular frame 401. The elastic clip 4031 is locked in the adjustment slot 4021. A second threaded hole 4032 is provided on the slide block 403. The lower end of the second bolt 306 passes through the adjustment hole 302 and the mounting hole on the main board and is threadedly fixed in the second threaded hole 4032.
[0041] During installation, first place the backplate 4 at the bottom of the motherboard. By sliding the slide block 403 on the extension arm 402, the elastic clip 4031 is engaged in the appropriate adjustment slot 4021, thereby adjusting the position of the slide block 403 on the backplate 4 to accommodate the mounting hole positions of different motherboards. Then, place the connecting plate 301 of the fastener 3 on the top of the motherboard, so that the second bolt 306 passes through the adjustment hole 302 on the connecting plate 301 and the mounting hole on the motherboard in sequence, and finally is threaded into the second threaded hole 4032 of the slide block 403. In this way, the mounting bracket is fixed on the motherboard, and through the adjustment of the adjustment hole 302 and the adjustment and cooperation of the slide block 403 and the extension arm 402, it can adapt to the installation requirements of different motherboard models.
[0042] In this embodiment, a first threaded hole 3011 is provided in the middle of the connecting plate 301, and through holes are provided at both ends of the horizontal plate 1011. The lower end of the first bolt 303 passes through the through hole and is threaded and fixed in the first threaded hole 3011.
[0043] When connecting the radiator body 1 to the mounting base, the lower end of the first bolt 303 passes through the through holes at both ends of the horizontal plate 1011, and then screws into the first threaded hole 3011 in the middle of the connecting plate 301. Through this threaded connection method, the radiator body 1 is stably fixed on the fastener 3 of the mounting base, ensuring the stability of the radiator during operation and preventing the radiator body 1 from shaking and affecting the heat dissipation effect.
[0044] In this embodiment, a spring 304 is sleeved on the lower end of the first bolt 303, the upper end of the spring 304 abuts against the bottom of the nut of the first bolt 303, and the bottom of the spring 304 presses against the horizontal plate 1011.
[0045] The spring 304 acts as a buffer and pre-tightener on the first bolt 303. During installation, the spring 304 is compressed, generating an upward elastic force. This elastic force ensures a tighter connection between the first bolt 303 and the horizontal plate 1011 and connecting plate 301, preventing the first bolt 303 from loosening due to vibration or other reasons during computer operation. Furthermore, when the heat sink body 1 undergoes slight deformation due to temperature changes or other factors, the elasticity of the spring 304 provides a buffering effect, preventing damage to the connection due to rigidity and improving the overall reliability and service life of the heat sink.
[0046] In this embodiment, an insulating sleeve 305 is fitted onto the lower end of the second bolt 306, and the insulating sleeve 305 is located on the top of the main board.
[0047] The computer motherboard is filled with various electronic components and circuits. If the second bolt 306 directly contacts the motherboard when it passes through the motherboard mounting hole, it may cause electrical faults such as short circuits. The insulating sleeve 305 is fitted under the second bolt 306 and located on the top of the motherboard. It serves as electrical insulation, preventing current from being conducted to the motherboard through the second bolt 306, thereby protecting the electronic components and circuits on the motherboard and ensuring the stable operation of the computer.
[0048] In this embodiment, a mounting plate 201 is also included. The mounting plate 201 is fixed to the top of the heat sink body 1, and a digital display module 2 for displaying the real-time temperature of the computer CPU is fixedly embedded inside the mounting plate 201.
[0049] The digital display module 2 is connected to the computer motherboard interface via a data cable to read the real-time temperature of the computer CPU. Users can observe the temperature displayed by the digital display module 2 to understand the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink in real time, so as to troubleshoot problems in time when the temperature is too high, such as checking the fan speed, cleaning the dust on the heat sink fins, etc., to ensure that the CPU always works within a suitable temperature range. The digital display module can be either an LCD digital display module or a digital tube digital display module.
[0050] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 201 has a through hole 202 that communicates with the clearance through groove 1041.
[0051] When a screwdriver is needed to operate the first bolt 303 through the clearance slot 1041, the through hole 202 connects with the clearance slot 1041, providing a continuous channel for the screwdriver. Thus, even if the mounting plate 201 is installed on top of the radiator body 1, it will not obstruct the operation of the screwdriver, facilitating the user's installation, disassembly, or maintenance of the radiator and ensuring the convenience and practicality of the radiator installation structure.
[0052] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 201 is provided with an indicator mark 203 for indicating the position of the screwdriver insertion to the user.
[0053] Indicator label 203 provides clear operational guidance for users. When installing or removing the radiator, users can quickly and accurately locate the position where the screwdriver needs to be inserted, i.e., the position corresponding to the through slot 1041, by observing indicator label 203 on the mounting plate 201. This reduces the difficulty of operation for users and improves the efficiency of installation and maintenance. In particular, indicator label 203 can play a very good auxiliary role for users who are not familiar with the structure of the radiator.
[0054] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 201 is fixed to the top of the radiator body 1 by magnetically attracted metal screws 205. A magnetic cover plate 204 is detachably mounted on the mounting plate 201. The magnet at the bottom of the magnetic cover plate 204 is magnetically attracted to the metal screws 205.
[0055] The magnetic cover 204 is magnetically attracted to the metal screw 205 via a magnet at its bottom, thus allowing it to be detachably mounted on the mounting plate 201. The magnetic cover 204 is made of a transparent material, such as transparent acrylic or tempered glass, to allow users to easily see the displayed values of the digital display module 2.
[0056] In this embodiment, the heat-conducting plate 101 is an aluminum metal plate.
[0057] Aluminum has excellent thermal conductivity, enabling it to quickly absorb heat generated by the CPU and rapidly transfer it to the connected first heat pipe 102 and second heat pipe 103. Aluminum is also relatively lightweight, reducing the overall weight of the heatsink compared to other high thermal conductivity metals, thus reducing stress on the motherboard and contributing to the stability of the computer case's internal structure. Furthermore, aluminum is relatively inexpensive, making it economical and suitable for mass production and application in CPU heatsinks.
[0058] The specific steps are as follows:
[0059] The backplate 4 is placed at the bottom of the motherboard. The backplate 4 includes a rectangular frame 401, and slide blocks 403 are slidably mounted on the extension arms 402 at its four corners. By sliding the position of the slide blocks 403 on the extension arms 402, the elastic locking head 4031 of the slide block 403 near the rectangular frame 401 is engaged into a suitable adjustment slot 4021 on the side of the extension arm 402, thereby adjusting the position of the slide blocks 403 on the backplate 4 to fit the mounting hole positions of different motherboards.
[0060] Place the two connecting plates 301 of the fastener 3 on the top of the main board, aligning the adjustment holes 302 at both ends of the connecting plates 301 with the mounting holes on the main board and the second threaded holes 4032 on the slide block 403 of the back plate 4. Pass the lower end of the second bolt 306 through the adjustment hole 302 and the mounting hole on the main board in sequence, and then thread it into the second threaded hole 4032 to fix the mounting base on the main board;
[0061] Apply thermal grease to the CPU on the motherboard. Align the through holes at both ends of the horizontal plate 1011 of the heatsink body 1 with the first threaded hole 3011 in the middle of the connecting plate 301 of the fastener 3. Place a spring 304 on the lower end of the first bolt 303. Pass the lower end of the first bolt 303 through the through holes at both ends of the horizontal plate 1011, and then screw it into the first threaded hole 3011. The upper end of the spring 304 rests against the bottom of the nut of the first bolt 303, and the bottom presses against the horizontal plate 1011, providing cushioning and pre-tightening. When tightening the first bolt 303, open the magnetic cover 204. Then, the screwdriver passes through the through hole 202 and the clearance groove 1041 before acting on the first bolt 303. After installation, replace the magnetic cover 204.

However, as previously stated, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments.
