IX. Description of the invention: ‘Technical field to which the invention pertains. The present invention relates to a heat pipe, and more particularly to a heat pipe for heat dissipation of electronic components. [Prior Art] At present, heat pipes are used in the field of heat dissipation. The heat pipe transfers the heat by the vapor and liquid phases of the working fluid which are completely enclosed in the vacuum tube, and has extremely high heat conductivity. Previous heat pipes included hollow tubes, capillary structures, and working fluids sealed within the tubes. When the heat pipe is working, the low boiling working fluid filled inside the pipe body evaporates and vaporizes after the heat generated by the heat generating component is absorbed in the evaporation section of the heat pipe, and the steam moves to the condensation section under a slight pressure difference, and releases heat in the condensation section to be liquefied. The liquefied working fluid is returned to the evaporation section under the action of the capillary structure of the heat pipe wall portion, whereby the circulating motion of the working fluid dissipates the heat generated by the heat generating component. The internal space of the notebook computer is getting smaller and smaller, so the thickness of the thermal module of the central processing unit is also required to be thinner and thinner. The previous capillary structure is in the form of a groove or a powder sintered form, and the thickness of the capillary structure is usually between 0.3 and 0.8 mm. When the thickness of the heat pipe is only 2.0 mm or less, the steam passage of the heat pipe is extremely small and loses the function of heat dissipation.

Fine structure, lack of mesh 溆 璧 璧 璧 结合 结合 结合 结合 结合 结合 结合 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热 热The combination is not tight and falls off, resulting in a decrease in heat transfer amount and a sharp increase in thermal resistance. Therefore, in the case where the thickness is further thinned, the heat pipe cannot achieve normal heat transfer performance, and 6 200916714 cannot meet the structural limitations and performance requirements of the notebook computer. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a heat pipe having a thin thickness and good heat dissipation performance. A heat pipe includes a hollow pipe body, a capillary structure disposed in the pipe body, a working fluid sealed in the pipe body, the pipe body including an evaporation section and a condensation section, and the capillary structure includes an auxiliary capillary structure and at least one vessel The auxiliary capillary structure ring is disposed on an inner wall of the evaporation section, the vessel is stepped, and includes a large end and a small end, and extends from the evaporation section to the condensation section, the small end is in the evaporation section and the auxiliary capillary In contact with the structure, the large end is at least partially in contact with the inner wall of the condensation section. A heat pipe includes a hollow pipe body, a capillary structure disposed in the pipe body, and a working fluid sealed in the pipe body, the pipe body includes an evaporation section and a condensation section, and the capillary structure includes an auxiliary capillary structure and at least one hollow vein The tube, the auxiliary capillary structure is disposed at least on the inner wall of the evaporation section, and the vessel extends from the evaporation section to the condensation section, the vessel comprises a large end and a small end, the small end is in contact with the auxiliary capillary structure located in the evaporation section, and the large end is at least partially The inner wall of the condensation section is in contact. Compared with the prior art, the vessel effectively adsorbs the working fluid, avoids the local accumulation of the working fluid due to gravity factors, prevents the thermal resistance from increasing, and the pore diameter of the vessel is small, especially after the heat pipe is flattened and remains the original capillary action. The force ensures the circulating flow of the working fluid, satisfies the heat dissipation requirements of the ultra-thin notebook computer, and assists the setting of the capillary structure to relatively increase the capillary force of the evaporation section, and facilitates the liquid return after cooling. 200916714 [Embodiment] The structure of the heat pipe will be further described below with reference to the drawings. Referring to Figures 1 through 3 together, the heat pipe includes a tubular body, a capillary structure, and a working fluid (not shown) sealed in the tubular body 10. The pipe body 10 is a hollow sealing cavity made of a material having good thermal conductivity such as copper. The heat generated by the heating element is transferred to the inside of the pipe body 1, including the evaporation section 101, the adiabatic section 103 and the condensation section 102, and is evaporated. The section 101 and the condensation section 102 are respectively located at both ends of the tube body 1 , and the adiabatic section is located between the evaporation section 101 and the condensation section 102. In this embodiment, the tubular body 1 is flat, its radial cross section is substantially rectangular, and the four corners form a circular chamfer, and the thickness of the tubular body 1 is much smaller than its width. In fact, the tubular body 1 can be either a straight tube or any other bent tube, such as a "U" or "l" type. If the heat pipe is of the "U" type, one parallel end can be used as the evaporation section 101, and the other parallel end can be used as the condensation section 1〇2, or it can be used as the evaporation intermediate section between the two parallel ends. Segment 101, and the two parallel ends serve as condensation sections 102, respectively. The working fluid is filled in the tube body 1 and can be a substance having a lower boiling point such as water, alcohol or methanol. The working fluid absorbs heat into the steam at the evaporation section 1〇1 of the pipe body 1'. The steam moves to the condensation section under a slight pressure difference, and releases heat in the condensation section 102 to be liquefied, thereby liquefying the working fluid The capillary of the capillary structure _ shouts to the evaporation section 1 () 1, whereby the circulating motion of the working fluid 'dissipates the heat generated by the heating element. The capillary structure of the heat pipe comprises a three-tube 12 and a lion capillary structure 13 disposed on the evaporation section 101 of the heat pipe, and the auxiliary capillary structure 13 may be a mesh-type capillary structure of the 200916714 or a carbon nanotube layer. The thickness is about 〇1 house rice. The wire mesh capillary structure is formed by weaving a metal mesh or a fiber bundle. The slave nanotube layer contains single-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, or a combination thereof, and has a thickness of from 1 nanometer to 100 micrometers. The wire mesh capillary structure or the stone-repellent nanotube layer is used as the auxiliary capillary structure 13 , which is not only thin in thickness, small in volume, but also has strong thermal conductivity and good capillary performance, so that the evaporation section of the heat pipe has a larger radial direction. The energy density, which reduces the thermal resistance of the evaporation section 101 of the heat pipe, also facilitates the rapid return of the working fluid. The vascular tubes 12 are evenly spaced along the width direction of the heat pipe. If the number of the vascular tubes 12 is large, the respective vascular tubes 12 can be attached to each other. Each of the vessels 12 is stepped and located within the tubular body 1 and extends from the evaporation section 1〇1 to the condensation section 102. Referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 together, the vascular tube 12 is a detachable body formed by a plurality of copper wires, aluminum wires, non-recorded wires or fiber bundles, and forms a central passage inside. A plurality of fine pores are formed in the pipe wall, and the pores communicate with the central pipe. Each of the vessels 12 includes a large end 121 and a small end 122, and the central axes of the large end ι 21 and the small end ι 22 are on the same straight line. The small end 122 is attached to the inner wall of the auxiliary capillary structure 13 of the evaporation section 1〇1 of the heat pipe, and the large end 121 is in contact with the inner wall surface of the condensation section 102 and the heat insulation section 103 of the heat pipe. The outer diameter of the small end is equivalent to the hollowing in the auxiliary capillary structure 13, and the outer diameter of the large end 121 is equivalent to the inner diameter of the tube 10 of the heat pipe, so that the upper and lower sides of the vessel 12 and the heat pipe condensation section 102, the adiabatic section 103 The wall of the tube and the wall of the auxiliary capillary structure 13 form a line contact, and a vapor passage is formed between the tubes 12. The diameter of the vessel 12 can be expanded from 0.5 mm to several millimeters, and the maximum value depends on the quality of the working fluid 200916714, so that the direction of the working fluid transport is uniform, that is, only after the heat condensation of the condensation section 102 The working fluid passes through and returns to the evaporation section 101', while the vapor which vaporizes and vaporizes in the evaporation section 101 can only diffuse from the vapor passage between the vessel 12 and the official body 10 to the condensation section 1〇2. Taking pure water as an example, the preferred range of the diameter of the vessel 12 is between 0.5 mm and 2 mm. The vessel 12 can also adopt other similar structural forms. In this embodiment, the loose cross-sectional shape of the vessel 12 is circular, and the vessel 12 can also be adapted to the shape of the heat tube. For example, the cross-sectional shape of the vessel 12 is an elliptical ring. Therefore, the vessel 12 is in contact with the auxiliary capillary structure 13 and the heat pipe condensation section 1 and the inner wall surface of the adiabatic section 1〇3 to increase the contact area. The number of the vascular tubes 12 can be adjusted according to the width of the heat pipe, and is not limited to three. As shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 7, and FIG. 8, another embodiment of the heat pipe of the present invention is different from the foregoing embodiment in that the lower half ring of the auxiliary capillary structure 21 extends to the condensation section 102', that is, in the evaporation section. 1 'the auxiliary capillary structure 21 is attached to the inner wall surface of the evaporation section 101, and in the heat insulation section 103 and the condensation section 102, the auxiliary capillary structure is only attached to the lower half of the inner wall surface of the condensation section and the heat insulation section 1〇3. 'The effective capillary diameter of the auxiliary capillary structure 21 disposed in the evaporation section 1〇1 can be made smaller than the effective capillary diameter of the auxiliary capillary structure 21 disposed in the condensation section 1〇2, so that the flow resistance of the condensation section ι〇2 is small and convenient. The condensed liquid is refluxed, and the evaporation section 101 has a large capillary force and a large heat absorption area, thereby improving the heat transfer effect. The effective capillary pore size of the auxiliary capillary structure 21 of the adiabatic section 1〇3 can be the same as the effective capillary pore position of the evaporation section 1〇1 or the condensing section 1〇2, or the effective capillary between the evaporation section and the condensation section 1〇2. Between the pore sizes, the pore diameter of the auxiliary capillary structure 21 is reduced from the condensation section 1〇2, the adiabatic section 1〇3 to the evaporation section 200916714 101, and the capillary force is gradually increased to make the reflux more smooth. The shape of the vessel 2G is also adapted to the auxiliary capillary structure 21, and the upper half is stepped, including the big end 201 and the small end 2〇2, and the central axes of the big end 201 and the small end 2〇2 are parallel to each other, not On a straight line, in the same vertical, the folks are on the ground and poked. The inner wall of the pipe body 10 of the upper half of the big end 201 is in contact with the technical soil®3琛, and the lower half of the big end 201 is connected to the inner wall of the auxiliary capillary structure 21, followed by a thin green... The outer diameter of the end 202 is the same as the inner diameter of the auxiliary capillary structure 21, and the small 鸲2〇2 is in line contact with the inner wall surface of the auxiliary capillary structure 21. Since the line m and the tile contact may have an elastic shape, then all the line contacts are within the virtual range. Both of them can be in contact with each other, as described above in the context of the present invention, which is incorporated herein by reference. However, the above-mentioned requirements of the patents of the prior art, and those skilled in the art, are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the present invention is intended to cover the preferred embodiments of the present invention.
