Patent ID: 8496047

Claim:
An apparatus, comprising: at least one heated section of a plurality of heat pipes, wherein the at least one heated section of the plurality of heat pipes is coupled to a thermal conducting base; a first heat dissipating section coupled to at least one heat pipe of the plurality of heat pipes, wherein the first heat dissipating section extends transversally outward from a lateral side of the thermal conducting base; a second heat dissipating section coupled to the at least one heat pipe of the plurality of heat pipes and at least one other heat pipe of the plurality of heat pipes, wherein the second heat dissipating section extends vertically outward from the thermal conducting base; and a third heat dissipating section coupled to the at least one other heat pipe, wherein the third heat dissipating section extends vertically outward from the thermal conducting base, and wherein the first heat dissipating section, the second heat dissipating section and the third heat dissipating section are situated at a position higher than the at least one heated section.
