Heat sink
A heat dissipating fan comprises a base unit having an axial sleeve, a dynamic bearing having a shaft section, a stator unit securely around the axial sleeve and a rotor unit. The rotor unit has a hub with a through hole to be jointed to the shaft section. A barrel core is positioned at the inner side of the hub corresponding to the through hole for receiving the shaft section. A connection element engages with the shaft section to secure the connection between the hub and the shaft section. Thus, the heat dissipating fan is assembled quickly, easily and precisely.
1. A heat dissipating fan comprising:
a base unit further comprising a base and an axial sleeve;
a dynamic bearing further comprising an bearing body positioned in said axial sleeve and a shaft section positioned at an end of said bearing body;
a stator unit being coaxially secured around said axial sleeve;
a rotor unit being rotatably positioned to cover said stator unit and jointed to said shaft section, and further comprising a hub having a through hole at a central region thereof, a barrel core being a hollow portion connected to an inner side of said hub with a sidewall extending from an end of said hollow portion for being penetrated by said shaft section to;
a connection element being positioned in said barrel core to engage with a distal end of said shaft section;
a magnetic ring being positioned at the inner side of said hub for mutually inducing with said stator unit; and
a plurality of blades being alternately positioned to space spaced apart around an outer periphery of said hub;
wherein, said axial sleeve consists of a plurality of elastic split sleeve sections circularly positioned with a gap spacing apart from each other and a distal end of the respective sleeve section being bent a right angle toward said shaft section; and said connection element surrounds a distal end of said shaft section and is supported with said sidewall.
2. The heat dissipating fan according to claim 1 , wherein said sidewall has an axial hole corresponding with said through hole for being penetrated by said shaft section.
3. The heat dissipating fan according to claim 1 , wherein said shaft section has an annular groove for engaging with said connection element, which is a C-shaped retaining ring.
4. The heat dissipating fan according to claim 1 , wherein said connection element is a metallic annular ring riveted to the distal end of said shaft section.
5. The heat dissipating fan according to claim 4 , wherein said shaft section has a spline circumferential surface to enhance an engagement between said shaft section and said connection element.
6. The heat dissipating fan according to claim 1 , wherein said sleeve sections are capable of being obliquely bent outward for receiving said dynamic bearing and restored back to an original position thereof respectively for holding said bearing body.
