Abstract
Abstract A sloped wall type heat radiating member for chip, which is tightly attached to the upper side of the chip on a chip base for increasing the heat radiating efficiency of the chip. Two sloped walls inclinedly upwardly project respectively from two opposite sides of the heat radiating member toward each other, whereby a heat radiating fan is firmly inserted between the slope walls without using any fastening element such as screws. Two resilient slidable latching boards are disposed respectively on two sides of the heat radiating member. The bottom end of each latching board is formed with at least one latching hole for latching a lug disposed on each side of the chip base. The latching board is further formed with a guide section, whereby when the latching board is depressed by a user, the guide section is inclinedly moved downwardly along the sloped wall of the heat radiating member, making the latching hole of the latching board automatically unlatch the lug of the chip base.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
138 words
A sloped wall type heat radiating member for a chip, which is tightly attached to upper side of the chip on a chip base, said heat radiating member comprising: two sloped walls inclinedly and upwardly projecting from two opposite sides of a base board section of the heat radiating member respectively; and two latching hook means respectively disposed on outer sides of the sloped walls, each latching hook means including a resilient slidable latching board formed with at least one through hole and a guide section abutting against an outer face of the adjacent sloped wall, whereby a heat radiating fan is inserted between the sloped walls such that when depressing the latching boards, the latching boards are moved downward along the sloped walls, making latching holes of the latching boards automatically unlatch lugs of the chip base.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
138 words
A sloped wall type heat radiating member for a chip, which is tightly attached to upper side of the chip on a chip base, said heat radiating member comprising: two sloped walls inclinedly and upwardly projecting from two opposite sides of a base board section of the heat radiating member respectively; and two latching hook means respectively disposed on outer sides of the sloped walls, each latching hook means including a resilient slidable latching board formed with at least one through hole and a guide section abutting against an outer face of the adjacent sloped wall, whereby a heat radiating fan is inserted between the sloped walls such that when depressing the latching boards, the latching boards are moved downward along the sloped walls, making latching holes of the latching boards automatically unlatch lugs of the chip base.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
49 words
A heat radiating member as claimed in claim 1, wherein the base board section is disposed with at least two projections downwardly extending from bottom face of the base board section, the distance between the two projections being equal to the distance between two opposite sides of the chip.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
45 words
A heat radiating member as claimed in claim 1, wherein multiple heat radiating fin plates upwardly project from a top face of the base board section and inner edges of the sloped walls are respectively formed with two inwardly projecting flanges opposite to each other.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
80 words
A heat radiating member as claimed in claim 1, wherein a transverse board section transversely outwardly extends from top end of each sloped wall and at least one slide channel is formed under a bottom face of each transverse board section, a guide channel being formed on each lateral side of the base board section corresponding to the slide channel of the transverse board section, whereby the latching hook means is fitted in the guide channel and the slide channel.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
134 words
A heat radiating member as claimed in claim 4, wherein each latching hook means includes: a guide board slidably fitted in the slide channel of the transverse board section in alignment with the guide channel of the base board section, each guide board at least having a downwardly extending guide arm; a latching board having a top face board formed with a through hole for the guide arm to pass therethrough and a guide section abutting against the outer face of the sloped wall, one side of the top face board having a downward extending latching arm formed with at least one latching hole; a spring fitted around the guide arm and compressed between the latching board and the heat radiating member for upwardly pushing and restoring the latching board to a normal state.
