Abstract
A heat dissipater for a CPU (Central Processing Unit) includes an upper block and a lower block abutting each other. The upper block has a series of fins extending upward from a first side of the upper block and a recess defined in a second side of the upper block. The lower block includes a first side having a recess defined to correspond to the recess in the upper block and forming a closed chamber with the recess in the upper block and a second side adapted to abut the CPU. Volatile liquid is received in the closed chamber to promote the heat dissipation of the heat dissipater for a CPU.
Claims19
A heat dissipater for a CPU (central processing unit) comprising:
- an upper block and a lower block being integrally formed and made of a heat conductive material, the upper block including:
- a series of fins extending from a first end of the upper block and adapted to mount a cooling fan on the upper block;
- a first recess defined in a second side of the upper block;
- and
- a series of first capillary grooves defined in a periphery of the first recess in the upper block;
- the lower block securely attached to the second side of the upper block, the lower block having a first side facing the upper block and a second side adapted to abut the CPU, the lower block including;
- a second recess defined in the first side of the lower block, the second recess corresponding to the first recess in the upper block and defining a closed chamber with the first recess in the upper block after the lower block being securely attached to the second side of the upper block;
- and
- a series of second capillary grooves defined in a periphery of the second recess in the lower block, each second capillary groove aligning with and communicating with a corresponding one of the series of first capillary grooves;
- and
- volatile liquid received in chamber, the liquid having a volume smaller than that of the chamber, the volatile liquid vaporizes when a temperature of a working environment is raised;
- wherein a vacuum is drawn on the chamber to remove residual vapor and foreign articles from the chamber before the volatile liquid is drawn into the chamber.
