  • Publication number: 20200370793
    Abstract: A sealing structure for a Stirling cooler includes a bellows, a first connecting block disposed at an end of the bellows, and a second connecting block disposed at another end of the bellows. The sealing structure for a Stirling cooler can generate both off-axis movements and lateral movements so as to produce corresponding harmonic motions, such that vibrations can be isolated, excellent vacuum can be obtained, and superior sealing quality can be ensured. Thereupon, possible leakage for the Stirling cooler operated under a significant pressure difference can be substantially resolved.

  • Patent number: 10168104
    Abstract: A filling pipe for use in high-temperature heat pipe filling operation includes an alkali metal filling unit, metallic pipe fixing unit, hermetic seal cover and stopping net. The alkali metal filling unit has a filling body, a receiving space disposed in the filling body. A feed inlet and a feeding pipe are disposed at the top and bottom of the filling body, respectively. A vacuum-generating component is disposed at the filling body laterally. The metallic pipe fixing unit has a fixing body and a taper opening disposed thereon and adapted to limit the metallic pipe. When the fixing body gets connected to the filling body, the feeding pipe is inserted into metallic pipe. The hermetic seal cover covers separably the feed inlet. The stopping net is movably disposed in the receiving space. Therefore, solid alkali metals are filled into a metallic pipe easily and safely.

  • Patent number: 8047269
    Abstract: A thermal spreader comprises: a casing having a first side contacted with a heat source and a second side secured with a heat sink, and having a vapor chamber defined in an interior in the casing; and a crosslinking capillary lattice retained in the casing and occupying the vapor chamber in the casing, whereby upon evacuation to form vacuum in the vapor chamber and filling of a vaporizable working fluid in the vapor chamber, the working fluid will be repeatedly vaporized and condensed through the crosslinking capillary lattice to absorb and remove heat from the first side of the casing and to dissipate heat outwardly from the second side of the casing.

  • Patent number: 7607802
    Abstract: A LED lamp includes: a plurality of substrates juxtapositionally formed as multiple layers, each substrate having a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) mounted thereon, whereby upon generation of heat by the LEDs when lit up, each substrate will form as a heat-dissipating plate in-situ in order that the multiple-layer substrates will instantly effectively dissipate the heat produced from the LEDs of the lamp outwardly for preventing deterioration of the illumination quality of the LED lamp.
