For example, in another embodiment, the heat dissipating fin can be omitted. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the circuit board can be fastened onto a structure other than the outer case. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the heat generating component can be an electronic component disposed on a structure other than the processor disposed on the circuit board.
- The
heat dissipating module 15 includes aheat conducting assembly 151. Theheat conducting assembly 151 includes a firstheat conducting portion 1511 and a secondheat conducting portion 1512. The firstheat conducting portion 1511 is fixed on theouter case 11 and connected to theouter case 11. The secondheat conducting portion 1512 is connected to the firstheat conducting portion 1511 and for abutting against theheat generating component 13. The secondheat conducting portion 1512 is movable relative to theouter case 11 for moving toward or away from theouter case 11. During assembly of the electronic device 1, theheat generating component 13 can push the secondheat conducting portion 1512 to move toward theouter case 11, so that theheat conducting assembly 151 is resiliently deformed to apply a force on theheat generating component 13 in a contacting manner, which makes theheat conducting assembly 151 and theheat generating component 13 attached to each other more firmly to enhance the heat dissipating efficiency. - Specifically, the
heat conducting assembly 151 includes two firstheat conducting components 1513 and a secondheat conducting component 1514. Preferably, in this embodiment, each firstheat conducting component 1513 can be a heat conducting pipe, and the secondheat conducting component 1514 can be a heat conducting block. Afirst portion 1513A of each firstheat conducting component 1513 away from theheat generating component 13 is fixed on theouter case 11. Asecond portion 1513B of the firstheat conducting component 1513 adjacent to theheat generating component 13 is movable relative to theouter case 11 for moving toward or away from theouter case 11. The secondheat conducting component 1514 is connected to thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513. The secondheat conducting component 1514 is for abutting against theheat generating component 13 and the two firstheat conducting components 1513 to conduct the heat generated by theheat generating component 13 to the two firstheat conducting components 1513. In other words, thefirst portions 1513A of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 define the firstheat conducting portion 1511 of theheat conducting assembly 151, and a combination of thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 and the secondheat conducting component 1514 defines the secondheat conducting portion 1512 of theheat conducting assembly 151. Specifically, in this embodiment, the firstheat conducting portion 1511 can be a fixing section of theheat conducting assembly 151 fixed on theouter case 11, and the secondheat conducting portion 1512 can be a free section of theheat conducting assembly 151 movable relative to the outer case. - However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the heat conducting assembly can include two first heat conducting components and two second heat conducting components. The first portion and the second portion of each first heat conducting component respectively abut against the outer case and the corresponding second heat conducting component. The two second heat conducting components are for abutting against the heat generating component. In other words, in this embodiment, the first portions of the two first heat conducting components define the first heat conducting portion of the heat conducting assembly, and a combination of the second portions of the two first heat conducting components and the two second heat conducting components define the second heat conducting portion of the heat conducting assembly. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the heat conducting assembly can include one first heat conducting component only. In other words, in this embodiment, the first portion of the first heat conducting component abutting against the outer case defines the first heat conducting portion of the heat conducting assembly, and the second portion of the first heat conducting component abutting against the heat generating component defines the second heat conducting portion of the heat conducting assembly.
- Besides, the
heat dissipating module 15 further includes two firstaccommodating slot structures 152 and a secondaccommodating slot structure 153 formed on theouter case 11. Preferably, in this embodiment, a shape of each firstaccommodating slot structure 152 can be in accordance with a shape of thefirst portion 1513A of the corresponding firstheat conducting component 1513, i.e., a combination of the shape of the two firstaccommodating slot structures 152 can be in accordance with a shape of the firstheat conducting portion 1511 of theheat conducting assembly 151. A shape of the secondaccommodating slot structure 153 can be in accordance with a shape of the combination of thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 and the secondheat conducting component 1514, i.e., the shape of the secondaccommodating slot structure 153 can be in accordance with a shape of the secondheat conducting portion 1512 of theheat conducting assembly 151. Thefirst portion 1513A of each firstheat conducting component 1513 is accommodated inside the corresponding firstaccommodating slot structure 152, i.e., the firstheat conducting portion 1511 of theheat conducting assembly 151 is accommodated inside the two firstaccommodating slot structures 152. The combination of thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 and the secondheat conducting component 1514 is accommodated inside the secondaccommodating slot structure 153, i.e., the secondheat conducting portion 1512 of theheat conducting assembly 151 is accommodated inside the secondaccommodating slot structure 153. - It should be noticed that a depth of the second
accommodating slot structure 153 is greater than a depth of the firstaccommodating slot structure 152. Thefirst portion 1513A of each firstheat conducting component 1513 abuts against and is fixed on a wall of the corresponding firstaccommodating slot structure 152. The combination of the secondheat conducting component 1514 and thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 does not abut against and is separated from a wall of secondaccommodating slot structure 153. Therefore, when theheat generating component 13 pushes the secondheat conducting component 1514, the combination of thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 and the secondheat conducting component 1514 can move toward theouter case 11 by deformation of thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 with no interference from the wall of the secondaccommodating slot structure 153. - However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. Any configuration that allows the second heat conducting portion of the heat conducting assembly to move relative to the outer case for applying the force on the heat generating component is included within the scope of the present invention. For example, in another embodiment, the depth of the first accommodating slot structure can be equal to the depth of the second accommodating slot structure, and there can be a soldering layer with a good heat conductivity filled between each first accommodating slot structure and the first portion of the corresponding first heat conducting component, so that the combination of the second heat conducting component and the second portions of the two first heat conducting component can be separated from the wall of the second accommodating slot structure for allowing movability of the combination of the second heat conducting component and the second portions of the two first heat conducting component relative to the outer case when the first portion of each first heat conducting component is fixed in the corresponding first accommodating slot structure by the corresponding soldering layer. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the depth of the first accommodating slot structure can be equal to the depth of the second accommodating slot structure, a thickness of the first portion of each first heat conducting component can be greater than an overall thickness of the combination of the second portions of the two first heat conducting components and the second heat conducting component, so that the combination of the second heat conducting component and the second portions of the two first heat conducting component can be separated from the wall of the second accommodating slot structure for allowing the movability of the second heat conducting component and the second portions of the two first heat conducting component relative to the outer case when the first portion of each first heat conducting component is fixed in the corresponding first accommodating slot structure.
- In addition, the
heat dissipating module 15 further includes fourresilient components 154. The fourresilient components 154 are disposed between the secondheat conducting component 1514 and theouter case 11. Eachresilient component 154 is for being resiliently compressed to apply a resilient force on the secondheat conducting component 1514 for increasing a contacting normal force of the second heat conducting component applied on theheat generating component 13 when the combination of thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 and the secondheat conducting component 1514 moves toward theouter case 11. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the resilient component can be omitted. In other words, in this embodiment, the contacting normal force of the second heat conducting component applied on the heat generating component can be generated by the deformation of the second portions of the two first heat conducting component only. - Preferably, in this embodiment, each
resilient component 154 can be a compressed spring. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the resilient component can be a torsional spring, a flat spring, a resilient arm, a resilient plate or a structure made of resilient material, such as a silicone rubber. - During the assembly of the electronic device 1, e.g., during a process that the
circuit board 14 is fastened onto theouter base 11 by the engagement of the screw and thescrew boss 16, theheat generating component 13 can push the secondheat conducting component 1514, so that the combination of thesecond portions 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 and the secondheat conducting component 1514 moves toward theouter case 11 along an arrow direction as shown inFIG. 6 to resiliently deform thesecond portion 1513B of the two firstheat conducting components 1513 and the fourresilient components 154, so as to increase the contacting normal force of the secondheat conducting component 1514 applied on theheat generating component 13, which makes theheat conducting assembly 151 and theheat generating component 13 attached to each other more firmly to enhance the heat dissipating efficiency. Besides, the configuration that allows the secondheat conducting portion 1512 to move relative to theouter case 11 can solve a problem of tolerance accumulation in the assembly of the electronic device 1 and simplify an assembly process of the electronic device 1. - In contrast to the prior art, in the present invention, the heat generating component can push the second heat conducting portion of the heat conducting assembly to move toward the outer case, so that the heat conducting assembly is resiliently deformed to apply the force on the heat generating component in the contacting manner, which makes the heat generating component and the heat conducting assembly attached to each other firmly to effectively conduct the heat generated by the heat generating component to the outer case through the second heat conducting portion and the first conducting portion. Therefore, the present invention has the enhanced heat dissipating efficiency. Furthermore, the present invention does not require a fan to dissipate the heat generated by the heat generating component. Therefore, the present invention has advantages of low power consumption, low noise and low maintenance cost. Besides, the present invention also can solve the problem of tolerance accumulation in the assembly of the electronic device and simplify the assembly process of the electronic device.
