  • Patent number: 7719840
    Abstract: A heat sink assembly includes a fixing base and a heat sink mounted on the fixing base. The fixing base has a bottom face attached to an electronic component mounted on a printed circuit board. The fixing base includes a pair of hooks extending from a rear side thereof and engaging with a support beam fixed to the printed circuit board. A pair of sleeves extend from a front side of the fixing base and two fasteners are received in the sleeves and threadedly engage with the printed circuit board. The rear and front sides of the fixing base are firmly secured to the printed circuit board, whereby the heat sink mounted on the fixing base can dissipate heat from the electronic component via the fixing base.

  • Patent number: 7644751
    Abstract: A heat sink clip (100) includes a spring member (10), a moveable locking member (20) and an actuating member (30). The spring member includes an elongated main body (11) and a first locking leg (14) connecting at one end of the main body. The locking member is coupled at the other end of the main body, including an engaging plate (22) and a second locking leg (26) extending from the engaging plate. The actuating member includes a handle (32) and an extension portion (34) formed at one end of the handle. The handle and the extension portion form an angle therebetween. The extension portion is operatively engageable with the engaging plate of the locking member.

  • Patent number: 7426956
    Abstract: A heat dissipating apparatus (10) includes a base (20), a plurality of stacked fins (30), and at least a heat pipe (40). The base absorbs heat from a heat-generating component. Each of the fins includes a main body (32), and a plurality of projection members (33) extending from the main body. The projection members of a first fin connect the projection members of a second fin. The projection members form a first heat transfer path for transferring heat from the base to the fins. The heat pipe includes a heat-absorbing portion (42) thermally contacting with the base, and a heat-dissipating portion (44) contacting with the fins. The heat pipe forms a second heat transfer path for transferring the heat from the base toward the fins.

  • Patent number: 7409983
    Abstract: A heat dissipating apparatus (10) includes a plurality of fins (20) stacked together along a predetermined direction, and a plurality of projection members (23) extending from each fin. Each of the fins includes a main body (22). The main bodies of two adjacent fins define an air passage (29) therebetween. The projection members of a first fin abut against the main body of a second fin, for dividing the air passage into a plurality of small air channels.

  • Publication number: 20080105735
    Abstract: An assembly includes an electronic product (40), and a packaging box (10) for enclosing the electronic product therein. The packaging box includes a casing (12) and a cover (14). The casing includes a base wall (124) and four sidewalls (120, 121, 122, 123) disposed around the base wall. An accommodating space (125) is defined between the base wall and the sidewalls for enclosing an electronic product therein. Two opposite first sidewalls (120, 121) of the casing have two side plates (16) pivotably extending therefrom. The side plates include a plurality of projections (162, 164) extending towards the accommodating space for cushioning the electronic product. The cover is pivotably extended from a second sidewall (123) connected with the first sidewalls of the casing and covers the accommodating space.
