Abstract

A composite heat dissipation member and an electronic device comprising the composite heat dissipation member. The composite head dissipation member may include a first heat dissipation sheet disposed to be overlapped with an antenna module, and a second heat dissipation sheet disposed adjacent to the first heat dissipation sheet without an overlap with the first heat dissipation sheet, thermally connected to the first heat dissipation sheet, and having a higher thermal conductivity than the first heat dissipation sheet.

Claims (41)

1. A composite heat dissipation member comprising:

a first heat dissipation sheet disposed to be overlapped with an antenna module;

a second heat dissipation sheet disposed adjacent to the first heat dissipation sheet without an overlap with the first heat dissipation sheet, the second heat dissipation sheet thermally connected to the first heat dissipation sheet; and

an anti-delamination layer stacked on the first and second heat dissipation sheets to prevent the first and second heat dissipation sheets from being damaged,

wherein the second heat dissipation sheet has a higher thermal conductivity than the first heat dissipation sheet.

2. The composite heat dissipation member of claim 1 , further comprising:

a base layer comprising one surface on which the first heat dissipation sheet and the second heat dissipation sheet are stacked.

3. The composite heat dissipation member of claim 1 , wherein the first heat dissipation sheet is cured by a specific external stimulus in a liquid state.

4. The composite heat dissipation member of claim 3 , wherein the first heat dissipation sheet is formed by removing a portion of the second heat dissipation sheet, coating a liquid-state first heat dissipation sheet in the removed portion, and curing the liquid-state first heat dissipation sheet.

5. The composite heat dissipation member of claim 1 , wherein the first heat dissipation sheet is cured by a specific external stimulus in a gel state.

6. The composite heat dissipation member of claim 5 , wherein the first heat dissipation sheet is formed by removing a portion of the second heat dissipation sheet, placing a gel-state first heat dissipation sheet in the removed portion, and compressing and curing the gel-state first heat dissipation sheet.

7. An electronic device comprising:

a housing;

an antenna module embedded in the housing; and

a composite heat dissipation member thermally connected at least to the antenna module,

wherein the composite heat dissipation member comprises:

a first heat dissipation sheet disposed to be overlapped with the antenna module;

a second heat dissipation sheet disposed adjacent to the first heat dissipation sheet without an overlap with the first heat dissipation sheet, the second heat dissipation sheet thermally connected to the first heat dissipation sheet; and

an anti-delamination layer stacked on the first and second heat dissipation sheets to prevent the first and second heat dissipation sheets from being damaged,

wherein the second heat dissipation sheet has a higher thermal conductivity than the first heat dissipation sheet.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the composite heat dissipation member further includes:

a base layer comprising one surface on which the first heat dissipation sheet and the second heat dissipation sheet are stacked.

9. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the first heat dissipation sheet is cured by a specific external stimulus in a liquid state.

11. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the first heat dissipation sheet is cured by a specific external stimulus in a gel state.

12. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the first heat dissipation sheet is formed by removing a portion of the second heat dissipation sheet, placing a gel-state first heat dissipation sheet in the removed portion, and compressing and curing the gel-state first heat dissipation sheet.

13. A method for manufacturing a composite heat dissipation member, the method comprising:

stacking, on a base layer, a second heat dissipation sheet a portion of which is removed;

disposing a first heat dissipation sheet in the removed portion of the second heat dissipation sheet;

performing planarization to match the first heat dissipation sheet to a thickness of the second heat dissipation sheet; and

curing the first heat dissipation sheet.

14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:
