Patent number: 8413714Abstract: A heat dissipation device includes a heat sink forming an engaging portion along an outer periphery thereof, a fan holder attached to the heat sink and a fan secured to the heat sink via the fan holder. The fan holder includes an elastic main body, a first clip pivotally connected to a free end of the elastic main body and a second clip connected with the first clip and engaging with an opposite free end of the elastic main body. The elastic main body includes a pair of fixing portions formed at upper and lower sides thereof. The lower fixing portion of the fan holder is tightly engaged with the engaging portion of the heat sink and the upper fixing portion presses the fan towards the heat sink when the second clip is tightly locked to the opposite free end of the elastic main body.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2009Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignees: Fu Zhun Precision Industry (Shen Zhen) Co., Ltd., Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wei-Cheng Nie, Hong-Cheng Yang

Patent number: 7924566Abstract: A heat dissipation device includes a heat sink in which a plurality of mounting holes are defined, and a plurality of fasteners. Each of the fasteners includes a shaft with one end thereof received in a corresponding mounting hole, a sleeve enclosing the shaft and received in the mounting hole, and a fixture engaging the shaft and pressing the heat sink and a bottom end of the sleeve. The sleeve is filled between the end of the shaft and an inner face of the heat sink defining the mounting hole to perform an engagement of the shaft in the mounting hole of the heat sink, thereby fastening the fasteners to the heat sink. The shaft has a screw extending out of the mounting hole for mounting the heat sink on a printed circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2009Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignees: Fu Zhun Precision Industry (Shen Zhen) Co., Ltd., Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wei-Cheng Nie, Hong-Cheng Yang

Publication number: 20100294463Abstract: A heat dissipation device includes a heat sink and a blower. The heat sink has a base and a plurality of fins formed on the base. The blower includes a frame and an impeller rotatably secured to the frame. The frame faces and is secured to the base of the heat sink to define an airflow passage between the base of the heat sink and the blower. An airflow inlet is defined through the frame of the blower. Another airflow inlet is defined through the base of the heat sink. An airflow produced by the blower passes through the airflow passage via the airflow inlets and then blows towards channels defined between the fins of the heat sink.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2009Publication date: November 25, 2010Applicants: FU ZHUN PRECISION INDUSTRY (SHEN ZHEN) CO., LTD., FOXCONN TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: WEI-CHENG NIE, HONG-CHENG YANG, LEI CAO
