- An electronic device is provided with a Printed Circuit Board (PCB)as a main board,which is formed in various shapes. On the PCB, various electronic components (electronic function groups) is mounted so as to execute various functions of the electronic device. The electronic components may generate various harmful radio waves (e.g., electromagnetic waves). In addition, as the electronic device is provided with high performance electronic components, the surface temperature of the electronic device increases due to the heat generated by the electronic components.
- A method of coating paint on a PCB by EMI spraying or vacuum deposition, or a method of mounting one or more shield cans in order to shield one or more electronic components mounted on the PCB, has been mainly used in order to shield the harmful radio waves described above. In addition, for example, a heat sink, a heat dissipation pad, or a heat dissipation sheet has been applied to an electronic component mounted on the PCB in order to dissipate the heat generated from the electronic component.
- Even if a shield can is used in the electronic device to shield electromagnetic waves generated from an electronic component mounted on a PCB, heat generated from the electronic component may not be smoothly dissipated to the surface of the shield can. For example, when a heat sink is applied to an electronic component so as to dissipate heat generated from the electronic component, the entire volume of the electronic device should increase. When a heat dissipation pad or a heat dissipation sheet is applied to an electronic component, only a limited heat dissipation effect of about 2° C. may be obtained after the application.

- Another aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a shield can assembly capable of efficiently executing heat dissipation without increasing the volume of an electronic device.
- Another aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a shield can assembly capable of improving space usability of a PCB and reducing a surface temperature of an electronic device so as to improve the use environment of the electronic device.
- In accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure, an electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a printed circuit board, at least one electronic component mounted on the printed circuit board, a shield can disposed on the printed circuit board to shield the at least one electronic component, and at least one heat pipe installed adjacent to at least a part of the shield can.
- In accordance with another aspect of the present disclosure, a shield can is provided. The shield can includes a top surface, a side surface bent in a predetermined height along a border of the top surface, and at least one heat pipe installed adjacent to at least one of the top surface and the side surface.
- According to various embodiments, a shield can assembly and an electronic device having the same are capable of executing both an electromagnetic wave shield action and a heat dissipation action. According to various embodiments, a shield can assembly and an electronic device having the same are capable of efficiently executing heat dissipation without increasing the volume of the electronic device.

FIG. 8 illustrates a cross-sectional view for describing an assembled state of a shield can assembly according to various embodiments of the present disclosure. - Referring to
FIG. 8 , a shield canassembly 1 includes aPCB 4 having aground pad 41, a shield can 2 installed to be electrically connected with theground pad 41 so as to shield anelectronic component 42 mounted on thePCB 4, and aheat pipe 3 installed adjacent to the shield can 2 and dissipating heat generated from theelectronic component 42 mounted on thePCB 4. - According to one embodiment, the shield can 2 is installed on the top of the
ground pad 41 installed on thetop surface 401 of thePCB 4. According to one embodiment, thetop surface 21 of the shield can 2 is adhered to theheat pipe 3 using at least one of welding, fusion, bonding, and a conductive tape. According to one embodiment, theheat pipe 3 installed on thetop surface 21 of the shield can 2 is formed in a plate shape rather than in a pipe structure. - According to one embodiment, a
heat dissipation pad 43 is installed on the top surface of theelectronic component 42 of thePCB 4 to absorb the heat generated from theelectronic component 42. According to one embodiment, theheat dissipation pad 43 is in close contact with aninner surface 23 of the shield can 2 so as to provide the heat absorbed from theelectronic component 42 to the shield can 2. Accordingly, the heat generated from theelectronic component 42 mounted on thePCB 4 is efficiently transferred to the shield can 2 through theheat dissipation pad 43. According to one embodiment, the heat absorbed from the shield can 2 moves to theframe 31 of theheat pipe 3 having a high heat conductivity, and thecoolant 32 hermetically filled in thehollow portion 314 of theframe 31 absorbs and dissipates the heat of theframe 31. According to one embodiment, thecoolant 32 dissipates the heat absorbed from theframe 31 to other mechanisms (such as, a magnesium bracket) through a vaporization and condensation process. - According to various embodiments, in
FIGS. 4 to 8 , theheat pipe 3 is formed in a pipe structure having a rectangular cross-section. Without being limited thereto, however, theheat pipe 3 is formed in a pipe structure having a circular or polygonal cross-section. - Although particular embodiments have been described in the detailed description of the present disclosure, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and changes is made therein without departing from the scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the scope of the present disclosure should not be defined as being limited to the embodiments, but should be defined by the appended claims and equivalents thereof.
