Abstract
A portable electronic device including a shell, a cover plate, a battery module, a heat generating element and a heat pipe. The shell includes an arc-shaped surface. The cover plate and the shell jointly define an accommodating space. The battery module is disposed in the accommodating space, and the battery module and the arc-shaped surface have a gap therebetween. The heat generating element is disposed in the accommodating space. The heat pipe is disposed in the gap and thermally coupled to the heat generating element. Moreover, the battery module also includes a stepped groove, and the heat pipe is disposed in the stepped groove.
Claims6
A portable electronic device, comprising:
- a shell, comprising an arc-shaped surface;
- a cover plate, jointly defining an accommodating space with the shell;
- a battery module, disposed in the accommodating space and leaning against the arc-shaped surface, wherein a gap exists between the battery module and the arc-shaped surface, and an upper surface of the battery module and the arc-shaped surface jointly define the gap;
- a heat generating element, disposed in the accommodating space;
- a heat pipe, disposed in the gap, and thermally coupled to the heat generating element;
- and
- a circuit board, disposed in the accommodating space, wherein the heat generating element is disposed on the circuit board, the heat pipe is extended between the circuit board and the heat generating element, and the heat pipe and the heat generating element are arranged in side-by-side manner from a top view of the circuit board.
