  • Patent number: 6644396
    Abstract: An anchor base for a heat sink for an IC chipset is formed basically in a rectangular frame comprising: two lateral plates respectively formed at the bottom of two opposite lateral stiles of the rectangular frame, each of the two opposite lateral plates having a respective snap barb at its lower portion; a longitudinal resilient rod bridging the other two opposite lateral stiles of the rectangular frame, wherein two ends of the longitudinal resilient rod are extended downwardly to form a pair of protruding rods which are no shorter than the height of the lateral plates; a shorter resilient rod crossing the longitudinal resilient rod; wherein a protrusion is formed at the bottom of each of two ends of the shorter resilient rod. Thus, an anchor base for a heat sink can be made without any extra perforation or cutting steps.

  • Patent number: 6476484
    Abstract: A heat sink dissipater includes a retaining device and a heat dissipater. A plurality of fins and a plurality of pads or recesses are integrally formed on the top surface of the heat dissipater. A plurality of resilient legs extend inward from the sides of the retaining device. Retaining edges are also formed on two sides of the retaining device. The resilient legs fall into the gaps between the fins when the retaining device is positioned on the heat dissipater to secure a CPU assembly. In an orientation, the legs are placed on the pads or recesses of the heat dissipater and in an orthogonal orientation, the legs are placed directly on the top surface of the heat dissipater. Therefore, CPU assemblies of different thickness can be accommodated by rotating the retaining device or the heat dissipater 90 degrees.

  • Patent number: 5228653
    Abstract: Tension clamp of the type including a sheath provided with an anchoring element and a tapered cavity inclined at a slight angle. In the cavity is a slidably mounted, transversely movable core including a single jaw having an abutting face against the cable. A part of the cavity of the sheath serves as a cradle for the cable and has a substantially semicylindrical cross-section with a radius matching that of the cable. A shell is provided between the part of the cavity of the sheath serving as a cradle for the cable and the cable. The shell is connected axially to the single jaw so as to follow its lengthwise movements, namely those parallel to the cable, but which is displaceable perpendicular to the lengthwise movements.
