Radiation structure for heating element
First Claim
1. A radiation structure for a heating element, comprising:
- a base;
a projection portion provided at said base; and
a heating element placed on a through hole provided at a printed circuit board, in which said projection portion is inserted into said through hole from a surface side of said printed circuit board opposing to a surface on which said heating element is placed and contacts with said heating element through gelled cementing material, whereby heat generated by said heating element is radiated outward through said projection portion;
wherein said base includes a first surface contacting to said printed circuit board on a surface facing to said printed circuit board and at least one step surface provided at a position away from said printed circuit board than said first surface.

Abstract
A heating element (IC, transistor or the like) is placed on a printed circuit board and silicon grease is coated on the surface of the printed circuit board side of the heating element. The projection portion of a radiator with a step portion is inserted into the through hole of the printed circuit board and closely contacted with the lower portion of the heating element through the silicon grease. As a result, heat generated from the heating element is transferred to the projection portion of the radiator through the silicon grease and then transferred to the entirety of the radiator. Excessive silicon grease is collected in a step portion provided at the base of the projection portion of the radiator and prevented from leaking to other portion such as a portion on the board.
