Abstract

A chip apparatus and an electronic device, where the chip apparatus includes a housing and a chip assembly fastened to one side of inside of the housing. The chip apparatus further includes a heat sink disposed on an opposite side of the inside of the housing, and the heat sink is thermally connected to the chip assembly.

Claims (49)

1 . A chip apparatus comprising:

a housing comprising an interior comprising a first side and a second side opposite to the first side;

a chip assembly fastened to the first side; and

a heat sink slidably coupled inside the interior of the housing to the second side and thermally coupled to the chip assembly, wherein the heat sink comprises:

a heat dissipation substrate thermally coupled to the chip assembly; and

a heat dissipation structure disposed on the heat dissipation substrate, wherein the heat dissipation substrate comprises through holes, and wherein the heat sink is connected to the housing by a set of limit screws penetrating the through holes.

2 . The chip apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the heat sink is slidable in a direction away from the chip assembly.

3 . The chip apparatus of claim 2 , further comprising a guiding assembly disposed in the housing, wherein the heat sink is slidably coupled to the housing using the guiding assembly.

4 . The chip apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the guiding assembly comprises:

a guiding post fixedly disposed in the housing, wherein the heat sink is slidably coupled to the guiding post; and

an elastic member sleeved on the guiding post, wherein the elastic member comprises:

a first end configured to press against the housing; and

a second end configured to press against the heat sink.

5 . The chip apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the guiding assembly comprises:

a sliding slot disposed in the housing, wherein the heat sink is slidably coupled to the sliding slot; and

an elastic member disposed in the sliding slot, wherein the elastic member comprises:

a first end configured to press against the housing; and

a second end configured to press against the heat sink.

6 . The chip apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the elastic member is a compression spring or a rubber ring.

7 . The chip apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the elastic member is a compression spring or a rubber ring.

8 . The chip apparatus of claim 4 ,

wherein the heat dissipation substrate is slidably coupled to the guiding post.

9 . The chip apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the

heat dissipation substrate is slidably coupled to the sliding slot.

10 . The chip apparatus of claim 8 , further comprising a chip thermally coupled to the heat dissipation substrate, wherein the chip assembly comprises a board fixed on the first side, and wherein the chip is disposed on the board.

11 . The chip apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a thermally conductive material between the heat sink and the chip assembly.

12 . An electronic device comprising:

a chip apparatus comprising:

a housing comprising an interior comprising a first side and a second side opposite to the first side;

a chip assembly fastened to the first side; and

a heat sink slidably coupled inside the interior of the housing to the second side and thermally coupled to the chip assembly, wherein the heat sink comprises:

a heat dissipation substrate thermally coupled to the chip assembly; and

a heat dissipation structure disposed on the heat dissipation substrate, wherein the heat dissipation substrate comprises through holes, and wherein the heat sink is connected to the housing by a set of limit screws penetrating the through holes.

13 . The electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the heat sink is slidable in a direction away from the chip assembly.

14 . The electronic device of claim 13 , further comprising a guiding assembly disposed in the housing, wherein the heat sink is slidably coupled to the housing using the guiding assembly.

15 . The electronic device of claim 14 , wherein the guiding assembly comprises:

a guiding post fixedly disposed in the housing, wherein the heat sink is slidably coupled to the guiding post; and

an elastic member sleeved on the guiding post, wherein the elastic member comprises:

a first end configured to press against the housing; and

a second end configured to press against the heat sink.

16 . The electronic device of claim 14 , wherein the guiding assembly comprises:

a sliding slot disposed in the housing, wherein the heat sink is slidably coupled to the sliding slot; and

an elastic member disposed in the sliding slot, wherein the elastic member comprises:

a first end configured to press against the housing; and

a second end configured to press against the heat sink.

17 . The electronic device of claim 15 , wherein the elastic member is a compression spring or a rubber ring.

18 . The electronic device of claim 15 , wherein the heat dissipation substrate is slidably coupled to either the guiding post or a sliding slot of the guiding assembly.

19 . The electronic device of claim 18 , further comprising a chip thermally coupled to the heat dissipation substrate, wherein the chip assembly comprises a board fixed on the first side, and wherein the chip is disposed on the board.

20 . The electronic device of claim 12 , further comprising a thermally conductive material between the heat sink and the chip assembly.
