Method for making a heat dissipating device

A method for making a heat dissipating device, comprising:

• preparing a container body that defines an inner space therein and that is formed with an opening in fluid communication with the inner space, the container body being provided with a wick structure mounted in the inner space;
• mounting an elastically deformable member on the container body in such a manner that the elastically deformable member covers a periphery of the opening and that the elastically deformable member cooperates with the container body to define a cavity in fluid communication with the inner space through the opening, wherein the elastically deformable member has a funnel-shaped part that is attached to the container body to form the cavity, and a hollow connecting part that extends from the funnel-shaped part and that is adapted to be connected to a vacuuming device;
• vacuuming the inner space in such a manner that air in the inner space is drawn through the opening and the cavity to the outside of the container body and that the elastically deformable member is elastically contracted due to vacuuming of the cavity, thereby forming a sealing effect at a juncture between the elastically deformable member and the periphery of the opening;
• filling the inner space with a predetermined amount of a working fluid through the opening and the cavity;
• forming a sealing mechanism that functions to isolate the inner space from the opening;
• wherein the formation of the sealing mechanism is conducted by pressing a portion of an upper wall of the container body twoard a lower wall of the container body in such a manner that the depressed portion of the upper wall is in sealing contact with the lower wall;
• and
• wherein the pressing of the upper wall of the container body is conducted by a depressing device, the depressing device including opposite upper and lower pressing members, the lower pressing member being disposed to abut against the lower wall of the container body, the upper pressing member having an annular outer part that is disposed to abut against the upper wall of the container body and that defines an accommodating space therein, and an inner tube that is surrounded by the annular outer part and that defines a fluid path therein for fluid communication with the cavity, the elastically deformable member being mounted in the accommodating space in such a manner that the connecting part is securely sleeved on the inner tube and that the funnel-shaped part diverges downwardly from a lower end of the inner tube to cover the periphery of the opening in the container body when the upper pressing member is disposed on the container body.
