Vapor chamber and manufacturing method of vapor chamber
A vapor chamber includes a working fluid in an internal space formed between a first metal sheet and a second metal sheet, in which the first metal sheet includes a recessed channel, at least one projecting part, and at least one flow channel groove. The recessed channel is provided at an inner surface of the first metal sheet, the projecting part projects from the inner surface of the first metal sheet toward an inner surface of the second metal sheet, and a top face of the projecting part abuts the inner surface of the second metal sheet. The flow channel groove has a bottom groove part, a side face groove part and a top face groove part. The bottom groove part is provided at a bottom face of the recessed channel, the side face groove part is provided at a side face of the projecting part, and is connected to the bottom groove part, and the top face groove part is provided at the top face of the projecting part, and is connected to the side face groove part.
1. A vapor chamber having a working fluid in an internal space formed between a first metal sheet and a second metal sheet, wherein:
the first metal sheet comprises a recessed channel, at least one projecting part, and at least one flow channel groove,
the recessed channel is provided at an inner surface of the first metal sheet,
the projecting part projects from the inner surface of the first metal sheet toward an inner surface of the second metal sheet, and a top face of the projecting part abuts the inner surface of the second metal sheet,
the flow channel groove has a bottom groove part, a side face groove part and a top face groove part,
the bottom groove part is provided at a bottom face of the recessed channel,
the side face groove part is provided at a side face of the projecting part, and is connected to the bottom groove part, and
the top face groove part is provided at the top face of the projecting part, and is connected to the side face groove part,
wherein,
the bottom groove part, the side face groove part and the top face groove part form a sealed space,
the top groove part is higher than the side face groove part,
for the top face groove part, first ends differing from second ends connecting with the side face groove part are connected to each other, or
for the bottom face groove part, third ends differing from fourth ends connecting with the side face groove part are connected to each other.
2. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein each of the bottom groove part, the side face groove part and the top face groove part of the flow channel groove has a groove depth d and a groove width w with the groove depth d being longer than the groove width w.
3. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio (t2/t1) of a sheet thickness t2 at the projecting part of the first metal sheet relative to a sheet thickness t1 at the recessed channel of the first metal sheet is 0.1 or more and 10.0 or less.
4. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein the first metal sheet includes a plurality of the flow channel grooves, and has a crossing part at which the plurality of the flow channel grooves intersect.
5. The vapor chamber according to claim 2 , wherein a ratio (t2/t1) of a sheet thickness t2 at the projecting part of the first metal sheet relative to a sheet thickness t1 at the recessed channel of the first metal sheet is 0.1 or more and 10.0 or less.
6. The vapor chamber according to claim 2 , wherein the first metal sheet includes a plurality of the flow channel grooves, and has a crossing part at which the plurality of the flow channel grooves intersect.
7. The vapor chamber according to claim 3 , wherein the first metal sheet includes a plurality of the flow channel grooves, and has a crossing part at which the plurality of the flow channel grooves intersect.
8. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein the bottom groove part, the side face groove part and the top face groove part form a sealed space.
