Abstract

The present disclosure provides an electrical connector comprising an electrical connector housing, a partition part, a partition heat sink, a heat pipe, and a cooling module. The electrical connector housing comprised an upper surface, a lower surface, and two opposite sidewalls. The partition part is disposed in the electrical connector housing. The partition heat sink is disposed on the partition part and is disposed in the electrical connector housing. One end of the heat pipe is connected to the partition part. The cooling module is disposed at the outside the electrical connector housing and is connected to the other end of the heat pipe. The cooling efficiency is enhanced by conducting the heat of the partition heat sink to the outside of the electrical connector through a heat pipe to avoid heat accumulating in the electrical connector housing.

Claims (16)

1. An electrical connector, comprising:

an electrical connector housing comprising an upper surface, a lower surface, and two opposite sidewalls;

a partition part disposed in the electrical connector housing;

a partition heat sink disposed on the partition part and disposed in the electrical connector housing;

a heat pipe having one end connected to the partition part, wherein the heat pipe comprises a first internal connecting part, an external connecting part, and a second internal connecting part, the external connecting part is disposed between the first internal connecting part and the second internal connecting part, the first internal connecting part is connected to the partition heat sink, and the external connecting part is disposed at the outside of the electrical connector housing; and

a cooling module disposed at the outside the electrical connector housing and connected to the other end of the heat pipe, wherein the cooling module comprises a first heat sink, the first heat sink is connected to the heat pipe, and the second internal connecting part is connected to the first heat sink,

wherein the width of a surface of the first internal connecting part parallel to the upper surface of the electrical connector housing is greater than the height of a surface of the first internal connecting part perpendicular to the upper surface of the electrical connector housing, and the width of a surface of the second internal connecting part parallel to the upper surface of the electrical connector housing is greater than the height of a surface of the second inner connecting part perpendicular to the upper surface of the electrical connector housing, and

wherein the width of a surface of the external connecting part parallel to the upper surface of the electrical connector housing is smaller than the height of a surface of the external connecting part perpendicular to the upper surface of the electrical connector housing.

2. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the first heat sink is disposed at the outside of the electrical connector housing, and the first heat sink is separated from the electrical connector housing.

3. The electrical connector according to claim 2 , wherein the cooling module further comprises a second heat sink disposed on the upper surface of the electrical connector housing.

4. The electrical connector according to claim 1 , wherein the first heat sink is disposed on the upper surface of the electrical connector housing.

5. The electrical connector according to claim 2 , wherein the partition heat sink comprises a first connecting groove, and the first internal connecting part is disposed in the first connecting groove.

6. The electrical connector according to claim 2 , wherein the first heat sink comprises a second connecting groove, and the second internal connecting part is disposed in the second connecting groove.

7. The electrical connector according to claim 2 , wherein the first internal connecting part is inclined to the sidewalls of the electrical connector housing, and the second internal connecting part is inclined to the sidewalls of the electrical connector housing.

8. The electrical connector according to claim 3 , wherein the first heat sink comprises a plurality of first cooling channels; the second heat sink comprises a plurality of second cooling channels, and the extension direction of the plurality of first cooling channels is identical to the extension direction of the plurality of second cooling channels.

9. The electrical connector according to claim 8 , wherein the plurality of first cooling channels respectively correspond to the plurality of second cooling channels, and each first cooling channel and the corresponding second cooling channel are disposed on the same linear thermal conduction pathway.
