Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] The present invention relates to a protective cover, and more particularly to a protective cover for protecting a thermal conductive adhesive of a heat sink from contamination. [Prior Art] At present, in the field of heat dissipation of electronic components, a heat sink is usually added to the surface of the electronic component to discharge the heat generated by the heat sink in time, so that the heat sink and the surface of the electronic component are in close contact to reduce the thermal resistance of the interface. A layer of 'thermally conductive paste' having a good viscosity and a high thermal conductivity is usually applied between the contact surface of the heat sink and the electronic component, so that the surface of the heat sink is more closely contacted with the surface of the heat-generating electronic component, thereby enhancing the heat conduction effect. However, since the thermal conductive adhesive is a paste-like and easily contaminating chemical, it is necessary to protect the thermal conductive adhesive. The thinner cover is usually provided on the top of the heat sink, and the thermal adhesive is covered on the cover with a rectangular cover. In a certain degree, conventional techniques can effectively protect the thermal conductive adhesive. However, when the area of the thermal conductive adhesive is close to or even equal to the area of the top of the heat sink, the conventionally protected δ 蒦 cover structure will scratch and contaminate the thermal conductive rubber on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is easily deformed due to excessive cover area. Effectively protect the thermal paste. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A protective cover is used to protect a thermal conductive adhesive on a heat sink, and the protective cover is corresponding to the top of the heat-dissipating smear coated with a smuggling smuggling & gg # / sufficiency glue and is covered 6 200949513 •: Above the glue, it comprises a pivot body and a cover body extending from the frame body. The frame body is fitted around the top of the heat sink, and a closed protection space is formed between the body and the top of the heat sink. The cover plate and the plurality of plates are inclined by the periphery of the cover plate; and the inclined wall is extended and connected to the top end edge of the frame body. Compared with the S-knowledge technology, the protection space of the protective cover of the present invention is formed by tilting the top end edge of the frame obliquely upward and inward, and even if the thermal conductive adhesive is applied to the entire top surface of the heat sink, the contamination can be avoided. Moreover, the overall structure of the protective cover can withstand a large pressure, thereby effectively protecting the thermal conductive adhesive. [Embodiment] Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a perspective view of a protective cover 10 and a heat sink 20 and a buckle 4 为本 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The heat sink 20 is configured to absorb and dissipate heat generated by a heat-generating electronic component such as a central processing unit (not shown). The top of the heat sink 2 is in contact with the heat-generating electronic component, and a layer of thermal conductive adhesive is applied to the heat-dissipating adhesive. The top of the heat sink 20 is disposed on the top of the heat sink 2 to protect the heat conductive adhesive 30. The buckle 4 is attached to the heat sink 20 for fixing the heat sink 2 It is in intimate contact with the heat generating electronic component. Referring to FIG. 2 together, the protective cover 1 is a hollow housing as a whole, and is integrally formed of plastic or metal material. The protective cover 10 includes a frame body 12, two receiving portions 14 extending from the bottom of the frame body 12 to the two sides, and a cover body 16 extending from the top of the frame body 12 to the inner wall 7 200949513. The cover body 16 includes a rectangular cover plate 164 and four trapezoidal inclined walls 162 extending obliquely downward from the four sides (not shown) of the cover plate 164. The frame 12 of the protective cover 1 is a plurality of vertical frame sides 122 that are repeatedly used as a closing/p body. The frame 12 is identical in shape to the top of the heat sink 2''. The accommodating portion 14 has a rectangular shape and is respectively formed by the frame 1. The two ends of the two ends of the frame edge 122 extend outwardly, and the two receiving portions 4 are hollow inside and communicate with the frame 12 for receiving corresponding portions of the buckle 40. The cover 164 of the cover 16 is a thin flat rectangular plate correspondingly located above the inclined wall 162. The cover 164 is perpendicular to the frame edge 122 and parallel to the top surface of the heat sink 20. The slanting walls 16 2 are respectively inclined downwardly and outwardly from the periphery of the cover 16 4 and are connected to the top edges of the four rims 122 to form a half-closed accommodating space 160 inside the cover 16 . . The heat sink 20 is integrally formed of a metal material such as ®, copper or the like having good thermal conductivity, and includes a substrate 22 and a plurality of heat dissipating fins 24 extending vertically downward from the bottom surface of the substrate 22 and arranged in parallel. The substrate 22 is a rectangular plate whose outer shape conforms to the shape of the space (not shown) enclosed by the frame 12. A groove 26 is formed between the bottom surface of the bottom surface of the substrate 22 and the heat dissipation fins 24 for placing the fastener 40°. The fastener 40 is a linear fastener, and the elastic metal wire is integrally folded into a package. The portion 42 and the two buckle arms 44 respectively extending from the ends of the pressing portions 42 and 8 , 200949513 respectively form a hook 46 at the ends of the buckle arms 44 . The pressing portion 42 is received in the groove 26 formed on the bottom surface of the substrate 22 of the heat sink 20, and the length thereof is slightly larger than the length of the 'groove 26' so that the two latching arms 44 are respectively located on opposite sides of the heat sink 20. . Please refer to FIG. 3, and when assembled, the first cover 1 is disposed on the top of the heat sink 20, wherein the protective cover 10 frame ❹ 12 four frame sides 122 and the heat sink 20 substrate 22 respectively The four side edges (not shown) are in contact with each other, and the pressing portion 42 of the buckle 4 is correspondingly disposed in the groove 26 of the heat sink 20, and the two ends (not labeled) of the pressing portion 42 respectively extend out A portion of the heat sink 20 is correspondingly received in the two receiving portions 14 of the protective cover 10. A protective space (not labeled) is formed between the cover body 16 and the heat sink 20 substrate 22 for each The thermal conductive adhesive 3 is coated on the top surface of the substrate 22. In addition, in order to increase the firmness of assembling the protective cover, it is possible to directly apply the adhesive reinforcement Ϊ 7 drill 兮Μ on the side of the frame 1 22 of the protective cover 1 〇 frame 12 An adhesive can be added to the outer side of the frame 12 to connect the protective cover to the heat sink 2 . The protective cover of the present invention] 〇 Μ 2〇 ΤΙ R 〇 frame 12 is attached around the top of the radiator, and the installation is fixed. Moreover, the cover 16 of the protective cover 10 extends obliquely inwardly from the entire top contact opening of the frame 12, even if the thermal conductive adhesive 30 is applied to the loose track, the entire top surface of the L-political heat 15 20 It can also effectively prevent the thermal adhesive 30 from being touched by the dirt mouth and illusory pollution. In addition, the cover portion 12 of the protective cover 10 can be prevented from being disassembled by the cover portion 9 200949513 IW can be loosened even when the moon is used as the receiving 40 to make the relative sliding. 1〇 Easy to disassemble.
