Thermal module
Abstract
A thermal module includes a radiating fin assembly having first heat conducting sections located at a lower middle portion thereof, second heat conducting sections located adjacent to outer sides of the first heat conducting sections, first heat dissipating sections located closer to upper outer portions of the radiating fin assembly, and second heat dissipating sections located adjacent to inner sides of the first heat dissipating sections; first heat pipes each having two ends separately inserted into the first heat conducting and dissipating sections; and second heat pipes each having two ends separately inserted into the second heat conducting and dissipating sections. Therefore, heat source can be transmitted by the first heat pipes from the high-temperature lower middle portion of the radiating fin assembly to the low-temperature upper outer portions of the radiating fin assembly and quickly dissipated into ambient air without stagnating in the middle of the radiating fin assembly.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A thermal module, comprising a radiating fin assembly, at least one first heat pipe, and at least one second heat pipe;

2 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a base plate assembled to the at least one first heat conducting section and the at least one second heat conducting section of the radiating fin assembly.
3 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising a thermal medium applied among the first heat conducting section, the first heat pipe, and the base plate, as well as among the second heat conducting section, the second heat pipe, and the base plate.
4 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the radiating fin assembly has a first end and a second end, and the first and second heat conducting sections and the first and second heat dissipating sections are of a plurality of through holes extended from the first to the second end of the radiating fin assembly; and wherein when the at least one first heat pipe is inserted into the first heat conducting and dissipating sections from the first end of the radiating fin assembly, the at least one second heap pipe is inserted into the second heat conducting and dissipating sections from the second end of the radiating fan assembly.
5 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein one of the two ends of the first heat pipe is a heat conducting end for inserting into the first heat conducting section while the other end is a heat dissipating end for inserting into the first heat dissipating section; and one of the two ends of the second heat pipe is a heat conducting end for inserting into the second heat conducting section while the other end is a heat dissipating end for inserting into the second heat dissipating section.
6 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the radiating fin assembly has an upper side and a lower side, and the first and second heat conducting sections can be provided closer to any one of the lower and upper sides while the first and second heat dissipating sections are provided closer to the other side.
7 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the radiating fin assembly has an upper side and a lower side, and the first and second heat conducting sections can be provided closer to any one of the lower and upper sides while the first and second heat dissipating sections are provided closer to the other side.
8 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the radiating fin assembly has an upper side and a lower side, and the first and second heat conducting sections can be provided closer to any one of the lower and upper sides while the first and second heat dissipating sections are provided closer to the other side.
9 . The thermal module as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the radiating fin assembly has an upper side and a lower side, and the first and second heat conducting sections can be provided closer to any one of the lower and upper sides while the first and second heat dissipating sections are provided closer to the other side.
