This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201710186984.0 filed on Mar. 27, 2017, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.
The subject matter herein generally relates to a heat dissipation structure, especially, relates to an airtight structure for heat dissipation of a circuit.
Generally, an airtight structure is configured on a circuit for heat dissipation.
The airtight structure includes a first plate, a second plate and a wick structure mounted between the first plate and the second plate. The first plate and the second plate have a plurality of through holes for corresponding screws. The crews correspondingly enter the through holes to fix the first plate on the second plate and also make the airtight structure connect with the circuit. However, an additional portion is mounted between the airtight structure and the circuit. The screws connect the airtight structure and the circuit by the additional portion.
Thus, the additional portion decrease stability between the airtight structure and the circuit, further, the screw in the through holes are easily loosened, which impacts the stability between the airtight structure and the circuit.
Implementations of the present technology will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the attached FIGURES.
The FIGURE is a cross-sectional view of an airtight structure of the present disclosure.
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. Also, the description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts have been exaggerated to better illustrate details and features of the present disclosure. The description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein.
Several definitions that apply throughout this disclosure will now be presented. The term “comprising” means “including, but not necessarily limited to”; it specifically indicates open-ended inclusion or membership in a so-described combination, group, series and the like. The term “coupled” is defined as connected, whether directly or indirectly through intervening components, and is not necessarily limited to physical connections. The connection can be such that the objects are permanently connected or releasably connected.
An airtight structure 100 of the present disclosure includes a first plate 10, a second plate 20, a wick structure 30 mounted between the first plate 10 and the second plate 20.
The first plate 10 is a level board and has a uniform thickness. The first plate 10 has a first surface 101 and a second surface 102 opposite to the first surface 101. A portion of the first plate 10 extends away from a plane of the leveled first plate 10 to form a first extending portion 11. The first extending portion 11 is perpendicular to the first plate. The first extending portion 11 is formed by stamping in exemplary embodiment.
In the exemplary embodiment, the first extending portion 11 is a hollow cylinder. An inner surface of the first extending portion 11 defines a first screw thread 110.
The second plate 20 is a bonding plate and has a uniform thickness. The second plate 20 is made of the same materials as the first plate 10. The second plate 20 has a bottom surface 201 and a top surface 202 opposite to the bottom surface 201.
The second plate 20 bonds to the first plate 10. A middle portion of the second plate 20 forms a cup portion 21 with the first plate 10. A middle portion of the cup portion 21 is a flat board. A cross-section of the cup portion 21 is substantially a trapezoid. A radius of the cup portion 21 decreases away from the first plate 10. While the second plate 20 is positioned on the first plate 10, the cup portion 21 of the second plate 20 and the first plate 10 together define a cavity 120. The wick structure 30 is received in the cavity 120.
Further, a portion adjacent to an end of the second plate 20 defines a through hole 22 through the bottom surface 201 and the top surface 202. The through hole 22 corresponds to the first extending portion 11 of the first plate 10. The first extending portion 11 extends through the through hole 22. An inner surface of the through hole 22 contacts the first extending portion 11. The first extending portion 11 has a first top end 111. The first top end 111 of the first extending portion 11 is above a bottom surface 210 of the cup portion 21.
A portion adjacent to another end of the second plate 20 extends perpendicularly to the second plate 20 to form a second extending portion 23. The second extending portion 23 and the through hole 22 are formed on opposite sides of the cup portion 21. The second extending portion 23 extends away from the bottom surface 201 by the stamping. The second extending portion 23 has a second top end 231. The second top end 231 of the second extending portion 23 is above the bottom surface 210 of the cup portion 21. The second extending portion 23 is a hollow cylinder. An inner surface of the second extending portion 23 defines a second screw thread 230.
The wick structure 30 is received in the cavity 120. Specifically, the wick structure 30 includes a first portion 31 mounted on the bottom surface 201 corresponding to the cup portion 21, a second portion 32 mounted on the second surface 102 of the first plate 10 and a plurality of third portions 33 connected between the first portion 31 and the second portion 32. The plurality of third portions 33 is perpendicular with the first portion 31 and the second portion 32. Every two adjacent third portions 33 have equal spacing.
The first portion 31 has a same thickness as a thickness of the second portion 32. A cross-section of all the third portions 33 has a rectangular shape. A thickness of the third portion 33 is greater than the thickness of the first portion 31.
While the second plate 20 is welded on the first plate 10, the first extending portion 11 extends through the through hole 22 and beyond the bottom surface of the cup portion 21. The second extending portion 23 is on the first plate. The cup portion 21 and the first plate 10 define a cavity having a tight sealing. The airtight structure 100 couples to a circuit by the first extending portion 21 and the second extending portion 23.
In the present disclosure, the first plate 10 has the first extending portion 11, the second plate 20 has the through hole 22 corresponding to the first extending portion 11 and the second extending portion 23. The first extending portion 11 and the second extending portion 23 are all formed by stamping. While the second plate 20 is welded on the first plate 10, the first extending portion 11 extends through the through hole 22, the second extending portion 23 is on the second surface 102 of the first plate 10. Thus, the airtight structure 100 can connect directly to a circuit rather than by additional elements.
Also, the first extending portion 11 and the second extending portion 23 are formed on opposite sides of the cup portion 21, so the cavity 120 defined by the first plate 10 and cup portion 21 of the second plate 20 has a tight sealing.
The embodiments shown and described above are only examples. Many details are often found in the art such as the other features of an airtight structure. Therefore, many such details are neither shown nor described. Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present technology have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the present disclosure, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes can be made in the detail, including in matters of shape, size and arrangement of the parts within the principles of the present disclosure up to, and including the full extent established by the broad general meaning of the terms used in the claims. It will therefore be appreciated that the embodiments described above can be modified within the scope of the claims.
