Patent ID: 7663883

Claim:
A heat transfer mechanism for dissipating heat from a heat generating body to a heat dissipating part, the heat generating body being directly coupled, at its bottom surface, to a common board, comprising: a film-shaped heat conductor for transferring heat from a top surface of the heat generating body to the heat dissipating part; and an elastic member directly coupled, at its upper surface, with said heat dissipating part and, at its lower surface, with said film-shaped heat conductor, the length of the elastic member being shorter than the length of the top surface of said heat generating body, for imparting elasticity to the film-shaped heat conductor, said film-shaped heat conductor being formed from a metal foil-type flexible heat pipe, wherein said film-shaped heat conductor has a double bent shape of an upper leg and a lower leg arranged in parallel with each other and connected by a middle leg that offsets the upper and lower legs with obtuse angles and transfers heat from the top surface of the heat generating body to the heat dissipating part along the double bent heat conductor by sandwiching the lower leg of said double bent heat conductor between said heat generating body and said elastic member so that said lower leg of said double bent heat conductor makes direct contact with substantially an entire top surface of said heat generating body, and coupling the upper leg of said double bent heat conductor directly to said heat dissipating part by extending said upper leg of said double bent heat conductor beyond an end portion of said heat generating body.
