Claim Text:
1. A thermal module connection structure providing a substrate, a heat generation unit being disposed on one face of the substrate, the thermal module connection structure comprising: a heat dissipation unit disposed on the heat generation unit, a protrusion section outward extending from each of at least two sides of the heat dissipation unit; and a locating assembly including a first locating member and a second locating member, the first and second locating members being respectively mounted on two sides of the heat generation unit and attached to the substrate, the sides of the heat generation unit being free from the protrusion sections, two separate independent carrier members in the form of plate members being separately hinged at two ends of the first locating member, the protrusion sections of the heat dissipation unit being positioned on the two carrier members, a first end of each of the two carrier members being separately pivotally connected with a different end of each of the first locating member, a second end of each of the two carrier members being latched with the second locating member, each of the carrier members having a press member for pressing the protrusion section against the carrier member so as to fix the heat dissipation unit on the carrier member; wherein the press member is formed with a pivoted section, a rod-shaped press section connected with the pivoted section and a latch section connected with the press section, the press section serving to press the protrusion section against the carrier member so as to fix the heat dissipation unit on the carrier member; wherein each of two ends of the first locating member has an upward extending assembling section, the pivoted section being pivotally connected with the assembling section; wherein the opposite end of the upward extending assembling section is formed with a holding section; wherein the latch section of the press member is latched in the holding section; and wherein each of two ends of the second locating member is formed with an extension section, a latch hook upward protruding from the extension section, the latch section of the press member being latched in the latch hook; and wherein the second end of each carrier member further is attached to a separate operation section, two ends of the operation section being respectively connected between the second ends of the two carrier members.
