  • Patent number: 8922999
    Abstract: A heat dissipating assembly which releases heat produced by an electronic device comprising a heat dissipating device and a plurality of elastic fastening members. The heat dissipating assembly includes a base plate having a plurality of engaging holes formed thereon. Each elastic fastening member includes a connecting member and a spring. The connecting member has a head portion and a bolt body that extends therefrom. The bolt body has an outer thread formed on the surface thereof and is being insertable into the respective engaging hole. The spring includes a winding portion woundable around the outer periphery of the bolt body, a clutching portion outwardly extended and downwardly bent from the bottom end of the winding portion to the base surface of the base plate, and a fastening segment extending from the clutching portion back under the winding portion. The instant disclosure further provides an elastic fastening member.
