Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Technical Field

The present invention relates to heat-dissipating structures, and more particularly to a heat-dissipating structure featuring for two layers of heat pipes that are separated and overlap each other.

2. Description of Related Art

US Patent Application Publication No. 20120305221A1 discloses a heat pipe-attached heat sink, which comprises a radiation fin module (denoted by the numeral 10 in the patent drawing), a plurality of heat pipes (denoted by the numeral 20 in the patent drawing), and a bottom block (denoted by the numeral 30 in the patent drawing). The radiation fin module is composed of a plurality of first radiation fins (denoted by the numeral 1 in the patent drawing) and a plurality of second radiation fins (denoted by the numeral 1a in the patent drawing). The radiation fin module has two protruding blocks (denoted by the numeral 101 in the patent drawing) and a plurality of locating grooves (denoted by the numeral 112 in the patent drawing). The bottom block has an opening (denoted by the numeral 31 in the patent drawing) and a plurality of locating grooves (denoted by the numeral 32 in the patent drawing) provided at two sides of the opening. To assemble the heat sink, the protruding blocks of the radiation fin module are located at the opening of the bottom block, and firmly affixed to the bottom block. Each said locating groove of the radiation fin module is aligned with each said locating groove of the bottom block. Then each said heat pipe is disposed on the radiation fin module and the bottom block, and received in the corresponding locating groove. In use, the heat pipes are in direct contact with a heat source, so the heat pipes can dissipate heat.

The prior-art device uses the heat pipes to dissipate heat from the heat source. However, since the heat pipes are arranged into a single layer, the resultant heat dissipation is poor. Hence, the known heat pipe-attached heat sink needs to be improved.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a heat-dissipating structure that features for two layers of heat pipes that are separated and overlap each other and is capable of dissipating heat from a to-be-cooled article quickly.

Therefore, the heat-dissipating structure of the present invention comprises: a heat-dissipating partition, a first heat-dissipating layer, and a second heat-dissipating layer. The heat-dissipating partition has two opposite surfaces, wherein one said surface is defined as a first surface, and the other surface is defined as a second surface. The first heat-dissipating layer is composed of a plurality of first heat pipes. Each said first heat pipe is disposed on the first surface of the heat-dissipating partition. The second heat-dissipating layer is composed of a plurality of second heat pipes. Each said second heat pipe is disposed on the second surface of the heat-dissipating partition. Each said first heat pipe of the first heat-dissipating layer has at least one part overlapping at least one part of each said second heat pipe of the second heat-dissipating layer.

Thereby, with the overlaps between the first heat pipes and the second heat pipes, the heat from a to-be-cooled article can be transmitted successively to the first heat-dissipating layer, the heat-dissipating partition, and then the second heat-dissipating layer, thereby achieving fast heat dissipation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention as well as a preferred mode of use, further objectives and advantages thereof will be best understood by reference to the following detailed description of illustrative embodiments when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

Please refer to FIG. 1 through FIG. 5B. In a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, a heat-dissipating structure 100 primarily comprises a heat-dissipating partition 10, a first heat-dissipating layer 20, and a second heat-dissipating layer 40.

The heat-dissipating partition 10 has two opposite surfaces. One of the surfaces is defined as a first surface 11, and the other is defined as a second surface 12, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3.

The first heat-dissipating layer 20 is composed of a plurality of first heat pipes 21. Each said first heat pipe 21 is disposed on the first surface 11 of the heat-dissipating partition 10, as shown in FIG. 1. In the first preferred embodiment, each said first heat pipe 21 has one surface disposed on the first surface 11 of the heat-dissipating partition 10.

The second heat-dissipating layer 40 is composed of a plurality of second heat pipes 41. Each said second heat pipe 41 is disposed on the second surface 12 of the heat-dissipating partition 10, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4. In the first preferred embodiment, each said second heat pipe 41 has one surface disposed on the second surface 12 of the heat-dissipating partition 10.

Each said first heat pipe 21 of the first heat-dissipating layer 20 has at least one part overlapping at least one part of one said second heat pipe 41 of the second heat-dissipating layer 40, as shown in FIG. 4 through FIG. 5B. In the first preferred embodiment, each said first heat pipe 21 has two parts overlapping two parts of one said second heat pipe 41.

The above refers to the configuration of the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the following description will be directed to its use.

Please refer to FIG. 1 through FIG. 5B. Each said heat pipe 21 of the first heat-dissipating layer 20 has one surface disposed on the first surface 11 of the heat-dissipating partition 10, and each said second heat pipe 41 of the second heat-dissipating layer 40 has one surface disposed on the second surface 12 of the heat-dissipating partition 10, as shown in FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B. Then, a to-be-cooled article A is put in direct contact with the other surface of the first heat pipes 21 of the first heat-dissipating layer 20, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5A, so that the to-be-cooled article A overlaps one part of each said first heat pipe 21 and one part of each said second heat pipe 41. The to-be-cooled article A is, for example, a CPU. First, the to-be-cooled article A has its heat transmitted to the first heat pipes 21 of the first heat-dissipating layer 20, and then the heat is transmitted to the second surface 12 through the first surface 11 of the heat-dissipating partition 10. At last, the heat is transmitted to the second heat pipes 41 of the second heat-dissipating layer 40, so as to achieve fast heat dissipation.

It is thus learned from the above description that the present invention has the following effects. The present invention solves the problem of the prior art that a single layer heat pipes is insufficient for heat dissipation. In the present invention, each said first heat pipe 21 has two parts overlapping two parts of each said second heat pipe 41, so the heat of the to-be-cooled article A can be transmitted successively to the first heat-dissipating layer 20, the heat-dissipating partition 10, and the second heat-dissipating layer 40, thereby achieving fast heat dissipation.

As described above, in the first preferred embodiment, each said first heat pipe 21 has its two parts overlapping two parts of each said second heat pipe 41, as shown in FIG. 4 through FIG. 5B. However, the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto, as long as each said first heat pipe 21 remains one part overlapping one part of each said second heat pipe 41. Since such a layout can be derived from the first preferred embodiment, no figure is made to show the same.

It is to be noted that, in the first preferred embodiment, the to-be-cooled article A is illustratively a cooper plate, but not limited thereto. In fact, the to-be-cooled article A may be any article that is thermally conductive. Alternatively, the to-be-cooled article A may be a CPU chip, but not limited thereto.
