Abstract

The invention discloses an energy transducing apparatus and an energy transducing equipment grouping a plurality of the energy transducing apparatuses. The energy transducing apparatus includes a heat pipe, a first heat-dissipating member, a second heat-dissipating member, and an energy transducing member. The heat pipe includes a contact portion and a flat portion. The first heat-dissipating member includes a plurality of fins. The second heat-dissipating member is connected to the first heat-dissipating member to form an accommodating space. The contact portion is accommodated in the accommodating space and contacts both the first heat-dissipating member and the second heat-dissipating member. The energy transducing member contacts the flat portion. Thereby, heat generated in operation by the energy transducing member is conducted through the flat portion to the heat pipe and then is dissipated through the first heat-dissipating member, the second heat-dissipating member, and the fins.
