Description

The heat radiation module

The utility model relates to a kind of heat radiation module of computer processing unit.

In located by prior art, the heat abstractor of the CPU (central processing unit) of computer (CPU) mostly adopts aluminium extruded type (Extrusion) or die casting (Die-casting) mode is produced the heat abstractor mould.Mostly common on the market heat abstractor is to make in the aluminium extruded mode, and as shown in Figure 1, wherein this heat abstractor comprises a fan 10, one square fin type heat radiation module 20 and a fastener 30.Base 21 directly contact computer CPU (central processing unit) 70 thermals source heatings partly 71 and with thermal energy conduction to radiating fin 22, then, fan 10 imports wind in the heat radiation module 20 again, and carries out the heat interchange action of convection current with radiating fin 22.Wherein, radiating fin 22 uprightly is formed on the base 21, reserves a space except that the centre and places the fastener 30, and all radiating fins are all rectangular to be arranged on the base 21.Fastener 30 can be fastened on snap 72 on the CPU (central processing unit) bearing with fan 10 and heat radiation module 20.Then fix as for fan 10 and 20 combinations of heat radiation module by the fixed orifice of lockhole on the fan 10 11 and heat radiation module 20.

Because in the above-mentioned known techniques, fail to adapt to the phenomenon of existing CPU (central processing unit) central part heating, and cause the whole heat energy of heat abstractor problem pockety, therefore, the purpose of this utility model provides a kind of heat radiation module that can strengthen radiating effect, be with metal heat-conducting post floorage contain the CPU (central processing unit) thermal source partly and can be directly with thermal energy conduction to the metal heat-conducting post.Be formed on metal heat-conducting post periphery with most radiating fin ring-types again, help the metal heat-conducting post evenly to transfer heat energy on each radiating fin, to promote the integral heat sink effect.

For the fan flow-disturbing phenomenon that the square radiating fin in the known techniques and heat-conducting base arrangement mode are caused, another purpose of the present utility model is to provide a kind of heat radiation module that can reduce flow-disturbing, and circular arc is arranged in the radiating fin of metal heat-conducting post periphery.Adapt to existing CPU (central processing unit) and adopt surface adhering technology (surface mount technology; SMT) cause the thermal source of CPU (central processing unit) partly to protrude from the CPU (central processing unit) surface, so its metal heat-conducting post of heat radiation module of the present utility model directly contacts with CPU (central processing unit) and this circular arc radiating fin also is formed on metal heat-conducting post periphery.According to aerodynamic principle, this structure will make the air-flow of fan screw out by the circular arc radiating fin, and the gap of circular arc radiating fin and CPU (central processing unit) existence, will help the smooth and easy of flow field.

In order to achieve the above object, the utility model provides a kind of heat radiation module, is used for the heat radiation of computer chip, it is characterized in that: this heat radiation module comprises:

One cylindrical metal heating column; And most circular arc radiating fins, it is formed in this cylindrical metal heating column periphery and arranges in the form of a ring along this metal heat-conducting post.
