Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of heat pipes, in particular to a manufacturing process of an ultrathin heat pipe.

Background

With the advance of science and technology, the current electronic products are developed towards high functionality, high efficiency, and light weight, especially, 5G is the future development trend in the field of consumer electronics, and the power consumption of the chip is much higher than that of a 4G chip while the computing power of the chip is significantly improved, so that the demand of the consumer electronics for heat dissipation in the future will be more intense. The power consumption of the chip is increased, so that the heat generated in a unit area is greatly increased, and how to quickly disperse the heat of the chip is always a difficult point and bottleneck in the industry. Therefore, the super heat conductive material and the heat dissipation material for rapidly conducting the heat of the chip need to be continuously improved to solve the problem of heat dissipation of the chip, so as to promote the continuous development of technology.

The heat pipe has the advantages of light weight, high heat conduction, high reliability, no maintenance, no noise and the like, and is a recyclable green and environment-friendly technology. Compared with the conventional copper sheet or aluminum sheet, the heat conduction coefficient of the heat pipe is more than 10 times, and the high heat conduction characteristic of the heat pipe is very suitable for heat dissipation of a concentrated heat source. The manufacturing process of the existing ultrathin heat pipe is extremely complex, and the process from feeding to finishing needs to be carried out through 20 large and small processes, especially, the process of placing a capillary structure on the ultrathin heat pipe is generally carried out by adopting two modes: the first method is to insert a core rod into the metal tube body to form a gap with a distance between the peripheral edge or partial peripheral edge of the core rod and the inner wall of the metal tube body, to fill metal powder into the gap, to heat and sinter the metal powder, to take out the core rod after sintering, the metal powder forms a capillary structure on the inner wall of the metal tube body, but the method can only form a capillary structure with a continuous shape on the surface of the inner wall, and cannot form capillary structures with other structures in the metal tube shell; the other traditional processing mode comprises the processing steps of pipe cutting, tail shrinking, head shrinking, cleaning, tail welding, wire arrangement, positioning, sintering, water injection, first removing, second removing, testing, packaging and the like, wherein the wire arrangement process is to directly arrange a metal wire or other capillary structures into a metal pipe shell of the heat pipe, but in the wire arrangement process, the threading process is difficult to complete and the processing difficulty is high because the pipe orifice of the metal pipe shell of the heat pipe is too small, and meanwhile, a copper wire is easy to hang on the pipe orifice to cause the damage of the capillary structures, so that the capillary capacity of the capillary structures is reduced, and the yield is too low.
