Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of CPU testing fixture technology, and more specifically, to an integrated CPU heat dissipation fixture for server testing. Background Technology

[0002] In the power-on testing of dual-socket L6 servers in the server manufacturing industry, traditional cooling methods have many drawbacks. Previously, without dedicated cooling fans, two separate heatsinks were needed to cool the two CPUs, along with an external cooling fan fixture. This resulted in numerous steps, from installing the heatsinks to connecting the external fan fixture, making the process complex and time-consuming, with a cycle time of up to 26 seconds.

[0003] Moreover, the complex operating procedures increase the possibility of operator error, which can easily cause damage to the CPU and motherboard due to improper operation, affecting product quality and production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an integrated heat dissipation fixture that can simplify the work process, improve work efficiency, and reduce the risk of material damage.

[0005] Therefore, this application proposes an integrated CPU cooling fixture for server testing to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides an integrated CPU cooling fixture for server testing.

[0007] The integrated server testing CPU cooling fixture provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] An integrated CPU cooling fixture for server testing, comprising an aluminum profile and a heatsink.

[0009] Two heat sinks are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the aluminum profile. The heat sinks have a finned structure and the fins are arranged in a cross shape with the aluminum profile. A cooling fan is provided at either end of the fins of the heat sink, and the air blowing surface of the cooling fan is directed towards the adjacent fin.

[0010] Furthermore, a handle is provided on the top of the aluminum profile, and a power switch connected to the electrical control of the cooling fan is provided on the top of the handle.

[0011] The above technical solution greatly facilitates operators in handling the heat dissipation fixtures. When powering on dual-socket server L6 processes, two heat sinks can be accurately installed in one go by simply lifting the handle with one hand, improving installation efficiency. The top of the handle is equipped with a power switch connected to the cooling fan's electrical control, allowing operators to directly operate the switch on the handle to start the fan after installing the fixtures, eliminating the need to search for the switch location. This makes operation more convenient, further reducing work processes, lowering the probability of errors, and ensuring the safety of the CPU and motherboard.

[0012] Furthermore, the aluminum profile has cover plates at both ends, and a power socket is provided on either cover plate. A power cord is provided in the hollow structure inside the aluminum profile, and the power cord passes through the aluminum profile and is electrically connected to the power switch and the power socket respectively.

[0013] The above technical solutions make the overall wiring of the tooling simple and reasonable, avoiding problems such as tangling and damage that may be caused by messy external power cables. At the same time, they also improve the neatness and safety of the tooling's appearance and make it easier for operators to use.

[0014] Furthermore, the power switch is a toggle switch and is located on either side of the handle grip.

[0015] With the above technical solution, operators can easily operate the switch without deliberately adjusting their hand posture when installing the tool by holding the handle, which further simplifies the operation process, improves work efficiency, and enables operators to start the cooling fan more quickly and accurately during intense testing operations, reducing errors caused by inconvenient operation and effectively protecting the CPU and motherboard from overheating damage.

[0016] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0017] (1) Through integrated design, the heat dissipation fixture integrates multiple heat dissipation components into one unit. During the power-on test of the L6 process of the dual-path server, the operator can quickly install it in place and turn on the fan by lifting the handle with one hand, which reduces the tedious installation and operation steps and greatly improves the overall efficiency of the test work. The operation cycle time is shortened from the original 26 seconds to 6 seconds, and the efficiency is increased by 77%.

[0018] (2) The power switch on the handle allows the operator to easily turn on the fan during installation without any additional operation, reducing the possibility of errors caused by searching for the switch and ensuring the safety of the server components. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Example:

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -2 provides further detailed description of this application.

[0027] This application discloses an integrated CPU heat dissipation fixture for server testing, comprising an aluminum profile 1 and a heat sink 2.

[0028] Two heat sinks 2 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the aluminum profile 1. The heat sink 2 has a finned structure and the fins are arranged in a cross shape with the aluminum profile 1. A cooling fan 3 is provided at either end of the fins of the heat sink 2, and the air blowing surface of the cooling fan 3 is directed towards the adjacent fins.

[0029] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top of the aluminum profile 1 is equipped with a handle 4, and the top of the handle 4 is equipped with a power switch 5 that is electrically connected to the cooling fan 3. This greatly facilitates the operator in handling the heat dissipation fixture. When performing power-on testing on the L6 process of the dual-socket server, the two heat sinks 2 can be accurately installed in one go by lifting the handle with one hand, which improves the installation efficiency. The power switch 5 on the top of the handle 4, which is electrically connected to the cooling fan 3, allows the operator to directly operate the switch on the handle 4 to start the fan after installing the fixture, without having to search for the switch location. This makes the operation more convenient, further reduces the operation process, lowers the probability of error, and ensures the safety of the CPU and motherboard.

[0030] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The aluminum profile 1 has cover plates 6 at both ends, and a power socket 7 is provided on either cover plate 6. The hollow structure inside the aluminum profile 1 is equipped with a power cord 8, which passes through the aluminum profile 1 and is electrically connected to the power switch 5 and the power socket 7 respectively. This makes the overall wiring of the tooling simple and reasonable, avoiding problems such as tangling and damage that may be caused by the messy external power cord 8. It also improves the neatness and safety of the tooling appearance and makes it convenient for operators to use.

[0031] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The power switch 5 is a toggle switch and is located on either side of the handle 4 grip. When the operator is holding the handle to install the tool, he / she can easily operate the switch without having to deliberately adjust his / her hand posture. This further simplifies the operation process, improves work efficiency, and enables the operator to start the cooling fan 3 more quickly and accurately during intense testing, reducing errors caused by inconvenient operation and effectively protecting the CPU and motherboard from overheating damage.

[0032] The implementation principle of the integrated server testing CPU heat dissipation fixture in this application embodiment is as follows: when performing power-on testing on the L6 process of a dual-socket server, the DC power supply is first connected to the fixture through the power socket 7, and the power cord 8 transmits the current to the power switch 5.

[0033] The operator holds the top handle of the aluminum profile 1 with one or both hands and aligns the two heat sinks 2, which are symmetrically set at the bottom of the fixture, with the CPU position in one go. If only a short-term test such as powering on is to be performed, it is possible to choose not to install after aligning with the CPU.

[0034] Subsequently, the operator flipped the toggle power switch 5 on one side of the handle 4 to turn on the power, and the cooling fan 3 started running at high speed. The heat generated by the CPU was conducted to the finned heatsink 2 through the thermal pads or thermal grease at the bottom of the heatsink 2. Due to the cross-shaped layout of the fins and aluminum profile 1, the airflow of the cooling fan 3 was directed towards the adjacent fins, quickly carrying away the heat from the fins and forming an efficient heat dissipation cycle. This effectively dissipated heat from the CPU, ensuring the stability of the test results and protecting the CPU.

[0035] Depending on the actual usage scenario, the spacing between the two heat sinks 2 can be adjusted appropriately.

[0036] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
