Patent ID: 8136245

Claim:
A method for combining heat pipes ( 20 ) with a fixing base ( 10 ), comprising the steps of: a) providing the fixing base ( 10 ) having a single accommodating trough ( 12 ) on a bottom surface ( 11 ) thereof, the accommodating trough ( 12 ) being provided therein with at least one recess ( 13 ); b) providing at least two heat pipes ( 20 ); c) coating adhesive medium ( 30 ) on a contacting surface of at least one heat; d) disposing the other heat pipe in the accommodating trough ( 12 ) and pushing the at least one heat pipe with the coating adhesive medium ( 30 ) into the accommodating trough ( 12 ), the recess ( 13 ) being located on a surface of the accommodating trough ( 12 ) between the at least two heat pipes; and e) pressing the at least two heat pipes ( 20 ) juxtaposed in the accommodating trough ( 12 ), thereby making the at least two heat pipes ( 20 ) coplanar with the bottom surface of the fixing base ( 10 ), and the coating adhesive medium being filled in the recess and a gap between the at least two heat pipes so that the at least two heat pipes are adhered together and with the surface of the accommodating through.
