## Abstract

This disclosure relates to a liquid cooling assembly that includes a base, a cover, a first connector, and a second connector. The cover is disposed on the base. The cover and the base together form an accommodation space therebetween. The cover has an inlet and an outlet respectively located at two opposite sides of the cover in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the cover. The first connector is disposed to the inlet of the cover. The second connector is disposed to the outlet of the cover.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A liquid cooling assembly, comprising:
a base;
a cover disposed on the base, wherein the cover and the base together form an accommodation space therebetween, and the cover has an inlet and an outlet respectively located at two opposite sides of the cover and arranged in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the cover;
a first connector disposed to the inlet of the cover; and
a second connector disposed to the outlet of the cover.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 1, further comprising a frame that is stacked on the base and surrounds the cover.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 2, further comprising a plurality of fasteners rotatably disposed on the frame.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 1, wherein the base comprises a substrate and a plurality of fins, and the plurality of fins protrude from the substrate and are located in the accommodation space.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 4, wherein the plurality of fins extend along directions parallel to the longitudinal direction of the cover.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 4, wherein the plurality of fins comprises a first group and two second groups, the first group is located between the second groups, and the first group is spaced apart from each of the second groups by a channel.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 6, wherein the first group has a width greater than a width of each of the second groups.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 1, wherein a part of the accommodation space has a height gradually increasing towards a middle reference line from outer sides of the cover in directions parallel to a width direction of the cover.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The liquid cooling assembly according to claim 8, wherein the first connector is located on the middle reference line of the cover in a direction parallel to the width direction of the cover.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)
