Abstract

A liquid cooling heat sink structure and its cooling circulation system include a thermal conduction module, and a liquid supply module, and the liquid supply module is installed on the thermal conduction module and has a containing space for receiving plural fins of the thermal conduction module, and the liquid supply module has a continuous surrounding peripheral wall oriented in a plurality of directions facing towards the outside of the liquid supply module, and the peripheral wall has two first liquid opening and a second liquid opening, and the two first liquid opening are disposed at positions of the peripheral wall in any two facing directions respectively.

Claims (16)

1. A cooling circulation system, comprising:

an exhaust; and

at least two liquid cooling heat sink structures;

wherein each of the at least two liquid cooling heat sink structures comprises:

a thermal conduction module including a thermal conductive substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, the first surface including a plurality of fins and the second surface configured to receive an electronic component that generates heat that is dissipated at least in part by the plurality of fins; and

a liquid supply module, installed on the thermal conductive substrate, and

including a containing space for receiving the plurality of fins, and a continuous surrounding peripheral wall oriented in a plurality of directions facing towards the outside of the liquid supply module, and two inlets and an outlet formed on the continuous surrounding peripheral wall and communicated to the containing space,

wherein the continuous surrounding peripheral wall comprises a first wall and a second wall, and the first wall and the second wall are opposite to each other,

wherein a first inlet of the two inlets is in the first wall and a second inlet of the two inlets is in the second wall of the continuous surrounding peripheral wall,

wherein the outlet is in the first wall of the continuous surrounding periphery wall, and

wherein the second inlet is opposite the outlet, and the first inlet and the second inlet are laterally offset from each other; and

wherein, the second inlet of a first liquid cooling heat sink structure of the at least two liquid cooling heat sink structures and the outlet of a second liquid cooling heat sink structure of the at least two liquid cooling heat sink structures are coupled by a pipe connector and connected in series with the exhaust by a connecting pipeline.

2. The cooling circulation system according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid supply module has a casing, and the containing space is formed in the casing.

3. The cooling circulation system according to claim 2 , wherein the continuous surrounding peripheral wall continuously surrounds a surrounding surface of the casing.

4. The cooling circulation system according to claim 1 , further comprising a plug member installed in at least one of the first inlets of the at least two liquid cooling heat sink structures.

5. The cooling circulation system according to claim 1 , wherein the first inlet and the outlet of each of the at least two liquid cooling heat sink structures are disposed at positions of the same facing direction.
