  • Patent number: 11892242
    Abstract: A multi-angle adjustable and transformable heat pipe includes a sealed case body. A working fluid is filled in the sealed case body. At least one capillary structure is disposed on an inner wall of the sealed case body. The sealed case body has a front section, a rear section and a transformable flexible middle section. The middle section is positioned between the front section and the rear section in connection therewith. The middle section is composed of multiple support sections and multiple knot sections. The support sections and the knot sections are alternately arranged. Two sides of each knot section are respectively connected with adjacent support sections, whereby the support sections can be adjusted by the same angle or different angles with the knot sections serving as fulcrums so that the heat pipe can be multi-angle adjusted and transformed and located.

  • Patent number: 11781816
    Abstract: A hetero-material floating heat pipe structure includes a main body and a multi-segment floating adjustment unit. The main body has a front end, a rear end and a flexible section disposed between the front end and the rear end. The flexible section has flexibility, whereby the main body is flexible. The multi-segment floating adjustment unit is disposed on an outer surface of the flexible section for restricting and protecting the flexible section. The multi-segment floating adjustment unit includes multiple adjustment members, which are pivotally connected with each other and stringed to form the multi-segment floating adjustment unit. Each of two ends of each adjustment member has a pivoted section. By means of the pivoted sections, the adjustment members are pivotally connected with each other and can be swung and bent by the same angle or by different angles to adjust the arrangement of the multi-segment floating adjustment unit.

  • Publication number: 20220283106
    Abstract: A heat source simulation structure includes a heating body and a heating member to form a simulation heat source main body for conducting heat. The simulation heat source main body is enclosed in an outer case and a heating substrate with electrical insulation and heat insulation properties to avoid dissipation of the heat. The heating member is electrically connected with an external power supply for heating the heating body. A thermocouple member is disposed on the heating body corresponding to the heating member. A temperature monitoring port is connected with a data collection meter for recording the temperature of the heating body. By means of the heat insulation design enclosing the simulation heat source main body, the contact thermal resistance between the heating member and the heating body is reduced, further to lower the heat loss of the heat source simulation structure and enhance the measurement precision and reliability.
