  • Publication number: 20100116462
    Abstract: A heat dissipation system comprises a printed circuit board and at least a heat dissipation device mounted on the printed circuit board for dissipating heat generated by an electronic member mounted on the printed circuit board. The at least a heat dissipation device comprises a base, a plurality of fins extending upwardly from the base and an air guiding member located at a corner of the base. These fins are spaced from each other to define a plurality of heat exchange passages. Non-fins are disposed at a side of the base to define a cooling air passage. The cooling air passage is parallel to the heat exchange passages of the fins. The air guiding member is located in the cooling air passage for controlling open and close of the cooling air passage.

  • Patent number: 7633755
    Abstract: A heat dissipation device assembly for dissipating heat from a plurality of electronic components mounted on a printed circuit board, includes a heat sink (10) contacting one of the electronic components, a pair of fans (20) attached on a lateral side of the heat sink, and a fan duct (30) fixed on the fans. A plurality of guiding members (322, 346) are formed inwardly from the fan duct to be located in an interior of the fan duct. The guiding members are used for guiding a screwdriver (40) to accurately fit with screws (50) preassembled to the heat sink. Thus, the screws can be quickly and easily fastened by the screwdriver to mount the heat dissipation device assembly on the printed circuit board.
