Description
- The present invention relates to a fixing mount and a thermal module thereof. The main body of the fixing mount is adapted to a heat sink and integrally formed with latch sections. The fixing mount and the heat sink can be fixedly locked on a chassis board without using any screw. Therefore, the assembling time is shortened and the assembling process is simplified to lower the manufacturing cost.
- Following the rapid advance of electronic and information technologies, all kinds of electronic products (such as computers) have been more and more popularly used and widely applied to various fields. There is a trend to increase processing speed and expand access capacity of the electronic products. Therefore, the electronic components of the electronic products have operated at higher and higher speed. With the high-speed operation, the electronic components generate high heat at the same time.
- As exemplified with a computer, in high-speed operation, the CPU in the computer will generate high heat to cause rise of temperature and unstable state of the CPU. The heat generated by the CPU and other heat-generating components must be quickly conducted out and dissipated. Otherwise, the CPU may crash or even burn out due to overheating.
- Conventionally, a heat sink is arranged on the CPU to quickly dissipate heat. The heat sink is fixed with a fixing mount to attach to the CPU. The fixing mount serves to secure the heat sink without swinging or displacing, whereby the heat sink can reliably quickly conduct and dissipate the heat.

The other ends of thesupport arms 241 are formed with thelatch sections 243. The twosupport arms 241 define therebetween aresilient space 26, whereby thesupport arms 241 can be resiliently biased toward or from each other. - Please now refer to
FIGS. 2 , 3 and 4. Therest section 22 has a circular orpolygonal installation hole 221 at the center between opposite sides of therest section 22. Theheat sink 3 is mated with an end face of therest section 22. Theheat sink 3 has a main body and multiple radiatingfins 32 annularly arranged around the main body and radially extending from a periphery of the main body. A heat conduction section protrudes from one side of the main body and extends through therest section 22 of themain body 20 to form a thermal module. - Alternatively, the

main body 20 with the chassis board 6, theheat sink 3 is first forced toward therest section 22 of themain body 20 to make the radiatingfins 32 of theheat sink 3 contact with the end face of therest section 22.

Theheat conduction member 4 extends through theinstallation hole 221 and thehole 31 with the second end of theheat conduction member 4 protruding from the other end face of therest section 22. After theheat sink 3 is securely connected with themain body 20, themain body 20 is further forced toward the chassis board 6. At this time, thelatch sections 243 of thesupport arms 241 of thesupport sections 24 are aimed at the four fixing holes of the chassis board 6. - Then, the front ends of the
projections 2431 of thelatch sections 243 are inserted into the fixing holes. At this time, theadjacent support arms 241 on two sides of eachextension section 23 are resiliently biased toward each other to contract theresilient space 26. After the rear ends of theprojections 2431 of thelatch sections 243 pass through the fixing holes, theadjacent support arms 241 are released to bound back to their home positions, whereby theprojections 2431 snap and hook the chassis board 6. In this state, the second end of theheat conduction member 4 just tightly contacts with and attaches to the heat-generatingcomponent 61. According to the above arrangement, the assembling time is shortened and the assembling process is simplified. - Moreover, the
main body 20 is integrally formed with thelatch sections 243. Therefore, the fixingmount 2 and theheat sink 3 can be fixedly locked on the chassis board 6 without using any screw. Therefore, the structure as a whole is simplified and the manufacturing cost is lowered. - According to the aforesaid, the fixing mount and the thermal module thereof have the following advantages:
