Abstract

A securing equipment for a heat dissipater of a CPU includes a holed main body, and a movable element. The heat dissipater is positioned in a holding member for the bottom to abut the top of the CPU. The main body has rear hooks separably connected to rear holes of the holding member. The movable element includes a control part, and a front part having up-sticking portions pivoted to the upper portion of the control part. The lower portion of the control part is pivoted to the front of the main body so as to be pivotable between a vertical position where the up-sticking portions stand upright in a locking position and a horizontal position where the up-sticking portions is in a sloping unlocking position. The front part of the movable element is further formed with hooks, which engage front holes of the holding member when the up-sticking portions stand upright in the locking position, so as to cause the main body to be pressed against the tops of the radiating fins of the heat dissipater. The main body can be removed together with the movable element after the control part has been pivoted to the horizontal position.
