Device and a cooling structure
View Patent ↗A device includes: a substrate; a heat-generating component which is mounted on a first surface of the substrate; a heat sink which is thermally coupled with the heat-generating component; and a frame which is attached on the first surface of the substrate. The heat sink includes a first fin extending in a direction away from the first surface, and the frame includes a second fin which is arranged on the frame, and the second fin extends in a direction away from the first surface. The first fin extends higher than bottom side of the second fin toward top side of second fin.
1. A device comprising:
a substrate;
a heat-generating component which is mounted on a first surface of the substrate;
a frame which is attached on the first surface of the substrate, and which includes an opening formed at a corresponding position of the heat-generating component; and
a heat sink which is thermally coupled with the heat-generating component through the opening,
wherein the heat sink includes a first plurality of fins which extend in a direction away from the first surface, and the frame includes a second plurality of fins which are arranged on the frame, and the second plurality of fins which extend in a direction away from the first surface,
wherein a top side of the first plurality of fins is higher than a bottom side of the second plurality of fins,
wherein the frame includes a flange which is provided on a rim of the opening, and
wherein the flange abuts on the first surface.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second plurality of fins are arranged along a direction of air flow.
3. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the first and second plurality of fins are arranged along the direction of air flow which is from the outside of the device.
4. The device according to claim 3 , wherein a thickness of each of the second plurality of fins on the side of the heat sink is thinner than the thickness of each of the second plurality of fins on a side opposite to the heat sink.
5. The device according to claim 1 ,
wherein a thickness of each end of the second plurality of fins on a side of the heat sink is thinner than a gap between the plurality of the first fins, and
wherein each end of the second plurality of fins on the side of the heat sink is arranged between the plurality of the first fins.
6. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of the second fins are arranged above a second heat-generating component.
7. The device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first and second plurality of fins are arranged parallel to an extending direction of the first and second plurality of fins.
8. A cooling structure comprising:
a heat-generating component which is mounted on a first surface of a substrate;
a frame which is attached on the first surface of the substrate, and which includes an opening formed at a corresponding position of the heat-generating component; and
a heat sink which is thermally coupled with the heat-generating component through the opening,
wherein the heat sink includes a first plurality of fins which extend in a direction away from the first surface, and the frame includes a second plurality of fins which are arranged on the frame, and the second plurality of fins which extend in a direction away from the first surface,
wherein a top side of the first plurality of fins is higher than a bottom side of the second plurality of fins,
wherein the frame includes a flange which is provided on a rim of the opening, and
wherein the flange abuts on the first surface.
9. A device comprising:
a substrate;
a processing unit which is mounted on a first surface of the substrate;
a frame which is attached on the first surface of the substrate, and which includes an opening formed at a corresponding position of the processing unit; and
a heat sink is thermally coupled with the processing unit through the opening,
wherein the heat sink includes a first plurality of fins extending in a direction away from the first surface,
wherein the frame includes a second plurality of fins extending in a direction away from the first surface,
wherein a top side of the first plurality of fins is higher than a bottom side of the second plurality of fins,
wherein the frame includes a flange which is provided on a rim of the opening, and
wherein the flange abuts on the first surface.
