  • Publication number: 20120279687
    Abstract: The present invention provides a flat-type heat pipe and a wick structure thereof. The flat-type heat pipe has a flat tube. The wick structure is arranged inside the flat tube along an axial line of the flat tube. The wick structure comprises a first wick portion and two second wick portions connected on both sides of the first wick portion. The thickness of the first wick portion is larger than that of the second wick portion. The first wick portion abuts against an upper inner wall of the flat tube. An air channel is formed between each of the second wick portions and the upper inner wall of the flat tube. The wick structure supports the inner wall of the flat-type heat pipe without providing additional supporting structure, so that the heat pipe can be made more compact.

  • Publication number: 20110315351
    Abstract: A vapor chamber having a composite supporting structure includes a flat sealed casing; a wick structure, a working fluid and a composite supporting structure. The composite supporting structure has a waved supporting rack and at least one supporting pillar. The waved supporting rack is configured to support upper and lower inner walls of the flat sealed casing. The waved supporting rack has plural separated channels for allowing vapor of the working fluid to flow through. Both ends of the at least one supporting pillar are respectively connected to the flat sealed casing or the wick structure. With this arrangement, compressive strength and tensile strength of the vapor chamber can be increased simultaneously without obstructing the circulation of liquid/vapor phases of the working fluid and reducing the thermal-conducting efficiency thereof.
