Four fasteners extend through the mounting arms for securing the heat sink assembly to a printed circuit board. | 03-25-2010 |
20100096106 | CLIP AND HEAT SINK ASSEMBLY HAVING THE SAME - A heat sink assembly includes a heat sink and a clip. The heat sink includes a base and a fin extending upwardly from the base. The clip is mounted on the fin and can be removed therefrom by moving upwardly along a height direction of the fin. The clip includes a resisting part contacting with a side of the fin, two locking parts respectively connected to two ends of the resisting part for securing the heat sink to a printed circuit board, and two stopping parts engaging with two opposites ends and an opposite side of the fin for preventing the clip from moving along widthwise and thickness directions of the fin. The two stopping parts are connected to the resisting part and located between the two locking parts. | 04-22-2010 |
20100108362 | ELECTRONIC SYSTEM WITH HEAT DISSIPATION DEVICE - An electronic system includes a printed circuit board, a base, and a wire clip. The printed circuit board includes an electronic component and a plurality of hooks around the electronic component. The base thermally contacts the electronic component of the printed circuit board. Two clasps are formed at opposite ends of the base. The wire clip includes two pressing portions, two first connecting portions extending inwardly from first ends of the two pressing portions respectively, and two second connecting portions extending inwardly from second ends of the two pressing portions respectively. The first and second ends of the pressing portion are opposite. The pressing portions of the wire clip are clasped by the clasps of the base. The first connecting portions engage with two hooks of the printed circuit board, and the second connecting portions engage with another two hooks of the printed circuit board. | 05-06-2010 |
