- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to a heat-radiating device, and more particularly to an innovative device with composite heat radiation efficiency.
- 2. Description of Related Art Including Information Disclosed Under 37 CFR 1.97 and 37 CFR 1.98.
- The known heat-radiating device is widely applied to a heat sink of a computer's processor. However, the heat generated will increase markedly with the continuous growth of operating speed of computer. Therefore, heat-radiating devices need to be improved functionally to realize enough a heat-radiation effect.
- The known heat-radiating device is typically a plate made of materials (e.g. copper) of outstanding heat conductivity. One side of the heat-radiating device is a heating surface, and the other side is a radiating surface. The heating surface is adhered to the predefined heat source (e.g. CPU), and the radiating surface is generally provided with several rows of radiating fins. The radiating fin aligns with the preset radiator fan, so, it can diffuse the heat absorbed by the heating surface when the heat-radiating device is operated. Then, air flow is blown by the radiator fan for heat radiation purposes. However, the heat radiation effect of a conventional heat-radiating device is restrained to a certain degree when the operating speed of the existing computer improves quickly. If the area of said heat source remains still, the heat-radiation efficiency could be improved even if the heating surface of the heat-radiating device is increased.
- Thus, to overcome the aforementioned problems of the prior art, it would be an advancement in the art to provide an improved structure that can significantly improve efficacy.
- Therefore, the inventor has provided the present invention of practicability after deliberate design and evaluation based on years of experience in the production, development and design of related products.
- The heat-radiating device of the present invention enables the heat absorbed by the foundation to be quickly guided out of the foundation through a heat pipe. The radiation area is increased by said radiating fin set for improved heat radiation efficiency. Also, phase-changing material stored in the inner space of the foundation assists in heat absorption and storage by latent heat, thereby avoiding overheating of the foundation and also helping to control efficiently the heat peak of the foundation. Furthermore, the heat-radiating device provides a composite heat radiation effect with improved applicability.
- Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.

FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. -
FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. -
FIG. 3 shows another sectional view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. -

-
FIGS. 1-3 depict preferred embodiments of a heat-radiating device with composite radiation efficiency of the present invention. The embodiments are provided only for explanatory purposes. The claims set the scope of the present invention. - The heat-radiating device A comprises a
foundation 10, formed as a 3D block (e.g. rectangular) which defines aheating surface 11 and aradiating surface 12. Thefoundation 10 is provided with aninner space 13. The device A includes a phase-changingmaterial 20, arranged into theinner space 13 of thefoundation 10, and at least aheat pipe 30. Theheat pipe 30 comprises a heat-absorbingend 31 and radiatingend 32. The heat-absorbingend 31 is arranged into thefoundation 10 opposite to theinner space 13, while theradiating end 32 protrudes out of thefoundation 10 at a predefined length. - There is also a radiating
fin set 40, arranged at intervals onto theradiating end 32 of theheat pipe 30. - The phase-changing
material 20 enables change of physical shapes, e.g. solid phase to liquid phase conversion. When a substance is melted, the solid phase is converted into a liquid phase, such that the heat is then consumed, namely, the heat is absorbed. The substance is stored by means of latent heat as long as maintained in a liquid state, and said latent heat will be discharged, enabling conversion from liquid to solid phase in the case of solidification of the liquid substance. Said phase-changingmaterial 20 is made of paraffin, inorganic salt, salt water compounds and mixtures, carboxylic acid and sugar alcohol, etc. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 , 2, and 3, radiatingfins 14 are assembled onto theradiating surface 12 of thefoundation 10 and are used to improve heat radiation effect of the radiatingsurface 12. - Referring also to
FIG. 4 , theradiating surface 12B of thefoundation 10 is a plate. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , thefoundation 10 is provided internally withbore grooves 15, wherein the heat-absorbingend 31 of theheat pipe 30 could be inserted. - Based upon above-specified structures, the heat-radiating device of the present invention is employed as shown in
FIG. 3 . The heat radiation effect is achieved in two aspects. When thefoundation 10 absorbs heat through theheating surface 11, the heat absorbed by thefoundation 10 is quickly guided via the heat pipe 30 (namely, the heat is transferred to radiatingend 32 of the heat pipe 30), then the radiation area is increased by said radiating fin set 40 for improved heat radiation efficiency. On the other hand, phase-changingmaterial 20 stored in theinner space 13 of thefoundation 10 assists in heat absorption and storage by latent heat, thereby avoiding overheating offoundation 10 and also helping to control efficiently the heat peak of thefoundation 10.
