Thus, the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 can be securely coupled to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.


Moreover, the heat dissipater 10 can also be controlled, by the actuating body 12 and the blocking structure 11, whether to come into contact or not to come into contact with the heat generator 20, hence achieving an effect of effective heat dissipation.


On the basis of the embodiment above, in the blocking method of the blocking device of the present disclosure, the actuating body 12 can be operated and assembled with the heat dissipater 10, so as to move the actuating body 12 to control the distance h between the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20. For example, by moving the actuating body 12, the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 are controlled such there is no distance h between the two and the two exhibit a state of attaching to each other, further for the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 to abut against and be securely coupled with each other. By controlling the distance between the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 by the actuating body 12 and the blocking structure 11, the heat dissipater 10 is controlled, by the actuating body 12 and the blocking structure 11, to come into contact or not to come into contact with the heat generator 20, hence achieving an effect of effective heat dissipation.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the heat generator 20 is an integrated circuit (IC), a graphics processing unit (GPU), a central processing unit (CPU), a memory, a heat dissipater, a non-metal body, a metal body or an electronic member. Thus, the present disclosure is able to better meet actual application requirements.

Thus, the actuating body 12 can be twisted into or screwed into the twist-in portion 101 (or the screw-in portion) of the heat dissipater 10 by coordinating with the body 13, hence controlling the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 by lock connection of the actuating body 12 such there is no distance h between the two and the two are in a state of attaching to each other, further for the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 to abut against and be securely coupled with each other to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the body 13 can be formed integrally with the heat dissipater 10 according to requirements. Thus, the present disclosure is able to better meet actual application requirements.

Thus, the present disclosure is able to better meet actual application requirements.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the actuating body 12 or the twist-in portion 101 can be a threaded body, an engaging body, a spiral body, a pulling structure, an abutment structure, a screw-in body, a screw or a nut. Thus, the present disclosure is able to better meet actual application requirements.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the heat dissipater 10 is provided with an engaging connection structure 102 and at least one first elastic element 103. The engaging connection structure 102 is engagingly connected to an object 30 (or a coupling portion), and presses, by elastic force of the first elastic element 103, the heat dissipater 10 at the heat generator 20 for heat dissipation (or for the heat dissipater 10 to come into contact with or approach the heat generator 20 for heat dissipation). Meanwhile, the actuating body 12 is twisted into or screwed into the twist-in portion 101 (or the screw-in portion) of the heat dissipater 10, hence controlling the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 by lock connection of the actuating body 12 such there is no distance h between the two and the two are in a state of attaching to each other, further for the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 to abut against and be securely coupled with each other to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the heat dissipater 10 is provided with four engaging connection structures 102 and four first elastic elements 103. The engaging connection structure 102 is for being engagingly connected to the object 30 (or a coupling portion), and for pressing, by elastic force of the first elastic element 103, the heat dissipater 10 at the heat generator 20 for heat dissipation (or for the heat dissipater 10 to come into contact with or approach the heat generator 20 for heat dissipation).


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the blocking structure 11 is provided with at least one open portion 111, and the open portion 111 is for a tool 40 to enter so as to operate the engaging connection structure 102 or to move out the engaging connection structure 102 from the open portion 111. Thus, ease of operation and use is achieved.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, at least one alignment portion 14, 106 is provided between the blocking structure 11 and the heat dissipater 10, and the alignment portion 14, 106 is for alignment of the blocking structure 11 or the heat dissipater 10. Thus, when the actuating body 12 is twisted into or screwed into the twist-in portion 101 of the heat dissipater 10, the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 can abut against and be securely coupled with each other to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the actuating body 12 has a twist connection portion 120 for connecting with the twist-in portion 101. Each of the twist connection portion 120 and the twist-in portion 101 of the heat dissipater 10 can be a threaded body, an engaging body, a screw-in body, a spiral body, a screw or a nut. Thus, the lock connection of the actuating body 12 and the twist-in portion 101 can better meet actual application requirements.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the actuating body 12 and the heat dissipater 10 include a threaded structure, a screw structure (for example, the twist connection portion 120 of the actuating body 12 and the twist-in portion 101 of the heat dissipater 10), a rotation structure, an inclined structure or an abutment structure (as shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11). Wherein, a pitch of the threaded structure is configured to decide a number of turn or an angle of rotation of the threaded structure when the heat dissipater 10 contacts with the heat generator 20; or a pitch of the screw structure is configured to decide a number of turn or an angle of rotation of the screw structure when the heat dissipater 10 contacts with the heat generator 20; or a pitch of the rotation structure is configured to decide a number of turn or an angle of rotation of the rotation structure when the heat dissipater 10 contacts with the heat generator 20.

In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the actuating body 12 is provided with a limiting portion 121 which is for limiting the blocking structure 11, the actuating body 12 is further provided with an operating portion 122, and the operating portion 122 and the actuating body 12 are bolted and assembled by a bolt 123, so as to apply a force to the operating portion 122 to operate the actuating body 12. Thus, a force can be applied to the operating portion 122 to operate the actuating body 12, and drive the blocking structure 11 by the limiting portion 121 when the actuating body 12 moves. When the actuating body 12 is twisted into or screwed into the twist-in portion 101 of the heat dissipater 10, in addition to abutting the blocking structure 11 against the object 30, the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 are controlled by lock connection of the actuating body 12 such there is no distance h between the two and the two are in a state of attaching to each other, further for the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 to abut against and be securely coupled with each other to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.

Two ends of the second elastic element 124 respectively abut against the actuating body 12 and the heat dissipater 10 (or two ends of the second elastic element 124 can respectively abut against the blocking structure 11 and the heat dissipater 10 according to requirements). Thus, with the coordination of the first elastic element 103 and the second elastic element 124, the engaging connection structure 102 and the actuating body 12 can be elastically pressed at the heat dissipater 10, for the heat dissipater 10 to be securely pressed at the heat generator 20 for heat dissipation.


In addition to the embodiment above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the heat dissipater 10 is provided with a passage 104 for circulating a fluid, which is a liquid or a gas for dissipating heat of the heat generator 20. Thus, once a heat source of the heat generator 20 is absorbed by the heat dissipater 10, the fluid is guided to flow through the heat dissipater 10 by the passage 104 to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.


Referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, as shown in the drawings, in addition to the embodiments above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the actuating body 12 is provided with a blocking portion 125, which is for limiting a rotation height of the actuating body 12. By controlling the distance h between the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 by means of operating the actuating body 12, the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 are securely coupled to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.


Referring to FIG. 6, as shown in the drawing, in addition to the embodiments above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, the operating portion 122 and the actuating body 12 are bolted and assembled by the bolt 123. The actuating body 12 can be operated by applying a force to the operating portion 122, further for the actuating body 12 to be located at a high abutment position h1 or a low abutment position h2 when the actuating body 12 is in operation so as to move the blocking structure 11.

On the basis of the embodiment above, a force can be applied to the operating portion 122 to move the operating portion 122 from the low abutment position h2 to the high abutment position h1, so as to operate the actuating body 12 to move up and down, and drive the blocking structure 11 by the limiting portion 121 when the actuating body 12 moves. When the actuating body 12 abuts against the heat dissipater 10, in addition to abutting the blocking structure 11 against the object 30, the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 are controlled by lock connection of the actuating body 12 such there is no distance h between the two and the two are in a state of attaching to each other, further for the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 to abut against and be securely coupled with each other to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.


Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, as shown in the drawings, in addition to the embodiments above, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a difference from the embodiments above is that, in addition to the above coupling means of the actuating body 12 and the heat dissipater 10, the two can be further locked, twist connected, screwed, engaged, bolted, adhered, expansion connected, riveted, welded or integrally formed as required. Thus, the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 can also be controlled by the actuating body 12 such there is no distance h between the two and the two are in a state of attaching to each other, further for the heat dissipater 10 and the heat generator 20 to abut against and be securely coupled with each other to achieve an effect of effective heat dissipation.
