Patent ID: 7515417

Claim:
An apparatus for cooling heat generating computer parts installed in a computer, the apparatus comprising: a heat transferring block thermally coupled to the heat generating parts to conduct the heat generated by the heat dissipating parts; at least one heat pipe, each including a block coupling portion thermally coupled to the heat transferring block and a fin coupling portion formed of a generally curved shape composed essentially of one or more circular arc portions; a plurality of heat dissipating fins, each having at least one perforation hole through which the fin coupling portion of the heat pipe passes through, wherein each of the heat dissipating fins are spaced apart from one another along the fin coupling portion and positioned on the fin coupling portion; least one heat pipe including two connecting portion, each of which has an upper end and a lower end; and the upper ends of the two connecting portions being connected to the fin coupling portion, wherein the two connecting portions cross each other when viewed in the direction of the axis which passes through the center of the circular arc portions of the fin coupling portion.
