  • Heat sink with heat pipes and method for manufacturing the same
    Patent number: 8464780
    Abstract: A heat sink to be used with a heat source can include a base portion and a fin portion. The base portion can include a plurality of heat pipes and a space formed at least partially between adjacent heat pipes. The base portion can also include a first plate thermally connected to the heat source and a second plate thermally connected to the fin portion. The plurality of heat pipes contacts the first plate and the second plate. The plurality of heat pipes can also include a first portion that is closer than a second portion to the heat source. Additionally, a distance between adjacent heat pipes is smaller at the first portion than at the second portion.
    Type: Grant

  • Heat sink with heat pipes and method for manufacturing the same
    Publication number: 20050098300
    Abstract: A heat sink including a base portion and a fin portion thermally contacted with the base portion. The inside of the base portion has at least one heat pipe, and a space (e.g., an air passage) formed around part of the peripheral portion of the heat pipe. The base portion is constructed of a first plate member that is contacted with a heat source, and a second plate thermally contacted with the fin portion. The heat pipe is placed between the first plate member and the second plate and is thermally contacted with them.
