Abstract:
1. A heat dissipating mechanism for dissipating heat from a heat generating part mounted on a substrate having two substantially planar and parallel sides, said substrate being accommodated in a chassis having a portion comprising an external surface of the chassis providing a heat dissipation surface, said portion of the chassis also comprising an internal surface extending substantially parallel to the external surface, wherein said surfaces of said portion of the chassis extend at an angle to said sides of the substrate, the heat dissipating mechanism comprising: a contacting part and a connecting part mutually arranged at said angle, wherein said contacting part of the heat dissipating mechanism has a substantially planar surface in conductive heat transfer contact with a majority of one of said sides of said substrate, and wherein said connecting part of the heat dissipating mechanism has a substantially planar surface in conductive heat transfer contact with said internal surface of said portion of the chassis.
