Claim:
A juxtaposing structure for heated ends of heat pipes, comprising a plurality of heat pipes, each heat pipe having a heated end, a surface of the heated end of each heat pipe having an upper and a lower planes facing to each other and sidewall faces formed between both sides of the two planes; and a locking unit, wherein the sidewall faces of any two adjacent heat pipes adjoin and abut against each other, the locking unit locks the heated ends of the heat pipes to form into one body, thereby to form a heated surface having a larger area with the combination of each lower plane, wherein the locking unit is a locking tool, wherein the locking tool has a locking tool body extending in an arranging direction of the heat pipes and locking arms extending downwardly from both sides of the locking tool body, the locking tool body abuts against the upper plane of the heated end of each heat pipe, and the two locking arms abut against the sidewall faces on both sides of the outmost two heat pipes, respectively, elastic portions having bending parts are formed between the locking tool body and the two locking arms, and wherein the elastic portions respectively extending beyond corresponding locking arms along a longitudinal extension direction of the locking tool body.
