Heat pipe heat sink
A heat sink ( 1 ), has heat pipes ( 3 ) which are disposed in a high temperature section (A) of a base plate ( 2 ) on which a heating element ( 4 ) is disposed so that the heat pipes ( 3 ) extend from the high temperature section (A) to low temperature sections (B) in different directions.
1. A heat sink, characterized in that heat pipes are disposed in a high temperature section of a base plate on which a heating element is disposed so that the heat pipes extend from the high temperature section to low temperature sections in different directions relative to the high temperature section;
wherein the heat pipes extend radially from the high temperature section to the low temperature sections.
2. A heat sink, characterized in that heat pipes are disposed in a high temperature section of a base plate on which a heating element is disposed so that the heat pipes extend from the high temperature section to low temperature sections in different directions;
wherein the heat pipes are disposed in proximity to each other in the high temperature section so as to be in parallel and/or overlap with each other.
3. A heat sink, characterized in that heat pipes are disposed in a high temperature section of a base plate on which a heating element is disposed so that the heat pipes extend from the high temperature section to low temperature sections in different directions;
wherein the number of heat pipes disposed so as to extend from the high temperature section to the low temperature sections on a leeward side exceeds the number of heat pipes disposed so as to extend from the high temperature section to the low temperature sections on a windward side.
4. A heat sink, characterized in that heat pipes are disposed in a high temperature section of a base plate on which a heating element is disposed so that the heat pipes extend from the high temperature section to low temperature sections in different directions;
wherein the base plate includes an extruded material having a plurality of holes, in which the heat pipes varied in lengths and positions for the respective holes are disposed.
5. A heat sink, characterized in that heat pipes are disposed in a high temperature section of a base plate on which a heating element is disposed so that the heat pipes extend from the high temperature section to low temperature sections in different directions;
wherein the heat sink is used in railroad vehicles or automobiles.
6. The heat sink according to claim 1 , wherein said heat pipes are a plurality of independent heat pipes.
7. The heat sink according to claim 1 , wherein the heat pipes terminate in the high temperature section at one end and terminate in the low temperature section at another end.
