Abstract:
A heat sink assembly includes a base, a fin group located above a top of the base, a mounting bracket, and a fan mounted on a lateral side of the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is integrally formed by a metal sheet. The mounting bracket includes a pedestal is located at a top of the base and connects with the base, and two sidewalls extending upwardly from opposite ends of the pedestal and sandwiching the fin group therebetween. The fan is mounted on a lateral side of the sidewalls of the mounting bracket. The pedestal integrally forms four mounting arms. Four fasteners extend through the mounting arms for securing the heat sink assembly to a printed circuit board.
Abstract:
A fastening assembly used for securing a heat dissipation device to a printed circuit board, comprises a sleeve, an inserting device extending through the sleeve, a spring encircling the inserting device and received in the sleeve, and a supporting device inserted in the sleeve. The inserting device engages with a back plate below the printed circuit board. The sleeve is integrally formed of plastic and comprises a hollow body, a resilient portion extending from an outer surface of the body and pressing a bottom of the heat dissipation device upwardly, and four supporting portions extending from the outer surface of the body and pressing a top of the heat dissipation device downwardly. The supporting device is inserted between the body and the resilient portion, and abuts against the resilient portion, to thereby reliably keep the resilient portion at its locked position.
Abstract:
A fastener assembly for securing a heat sink to a printed circuit board, includes a sleeve, a bolt inserted into the sleeve and a resilient component surrounding the bolt. The sleeve comprises a hollow body, a bottom plate at a bottom thereof and an engaging cylinder extending downwardly from the bottom plate. The engaging cylinder has inner thread and a deformable latching protrusion projecting radially outwardly. The bolt includes a shaft, a head and a threaded part for threadedly engaging with a retainer of the printed circuit board. The head is received in the sleeve above the bottom plate. The shaft is received in the through hole of the sleeve whilst the threaded part is held beneath the engaging cylinder of the sleeve. The resilient component is compressed between the head of the bolt and the bottom plate of the sleeve.
Abstract:
A heat sink assembly (100) includes a heat sink (10) having a plurality of fins (14), a fan handle (24) buckled with the fins and a fan (30) mounted on the heat sink (10) via the fan handle. The fan handle includes a retaining body (26) clasping two adjacent fins having a space therebetween. A screw (22) is extended through the fan and into the space of the two adjacent fins. The retaining body includes a pair of opposite lateral walls (260) clamping opposite sides of the two adjacent fins, for preventing the two adjacent fins from being over expanded outwardly during the insertion of the screw into the space.
Abstract:
A heat dissipation assembly includes a blower holder, a blower, a first heat sink and a second heat sink. The blower includes an inlet and an outlet and is attached to the blower holder. The blower holder is secured to the first heat sink with the inlet of the blower exposed to the first heat sink. The second heat sink is mounted to the blower holder and confronts the outlet of the blower. The second heat sink thermally connects with the first heat sink via heat pipes.
Abstract:
A locking device for mounting a heat sink to a CPU mounted on a printed circuit board, includes a back plate mounted below the circuit board and having a plurality of posts extending upwardly through the circuit board and the heat sink, and a plurality of retainers. Each retainer includes a pressing section resting on the heat sink, a locking section extending from the pressing section, and an operating section extending from the pressing section and opposing the locking section. Each post is extendable through the pressing section of a corresponding retainer to engage with the locking section.
Abstract:
A clip for heat sink comprises an inverted T-shaped retaining member and an L-shaped operation member pivotably connected to the retaining member. The retaining member has a detaining portion defining several openings and a connecting portion extending from the detaining portion. The operation member has a press portion for bearing against the heat sink and a holding portion for being grasped extending from the press portion. The operation member is capable of being driven to rotate from a first position to a second position to cause the detaining portion to interlock with a retention module provided on a printed circuit board, thereby securing the heat sink to an electronic element package on the printed circuit board.
Abstract:
A heat sink fastener includes a main body, a piercing body and an operating member. The main body has a pressing part for pressing a heat sink toward a heat-generating component. An engaging part and a latching leg are disposed at opposite ends of the main body. The piercing body includes a piercing part piercing through the engaging part, and a latching part below the piercing part. The operating member includes a cam pivotally connected to the piercing part and rotatable between locked and unlocked positions. At the locked position, a protrusion formed on the cam abuts a lateral edge of the piercing part to prevent the operating member from spontaneously rotating back to the unlocked position. A bent flange is formed at a periphery of the cam and engages with the engaging part.
Abstract:
A heat sink mounting assembly includes a retention module having a bottom and a pair of posts extending from the bottom. A heat sink is located on the bottom of the retention module. A clip spans across the heat sink and includes a clamping member having first and second legs releasably engaging with the posts of the retention module, and a pressing member having a first end thereof pivotably engaging with a first end of the clamping member. The pressing member has a pressing portion pressing the heat sink toward the retention module when a second end of the pressing member is depressed to engage with a pair of ears formed at a second end of the clamping member.
Abstract:
A locking device is for locking a heat sink to an electronic device. The locking device includes a retaining frame and a guiding member positioned on the retaining frame. The guiding member includes a seat having a base sitting on the retaining frame, a sleeve extending upwardly from the seat, and two spaced legs descending from the base of the seat to retain the guiding member to the retaining frame. A fastener is accommodated in the sleeve of the guiding member and is kept vertical to the retaining frame by the guiding member.
