Abstract

A water cooling head includes water cooling head includes a casing, a base and a pump. The casing includes an inlet and an outlet. An outer side of the base has a heat-absorbing surface. A thermal conduction structure is disposed on an inner side of the base. An active space is defined by the base and the casing collaboratively. The pump includes a first magnetic element, a second magnetic element, an impeller and a pivotal part. The first magnetic element is located outside the active space. The first magnetic element is arranged between the impeller and the base along a direction perpendicular to the base. The pivotal part, the second magnetic element and the impeller are disposed within the active space. The pivotal part is connected with the impeller and arranged between the impeller and the base. The second magnetic element is installed on the pivotal part.
