Abstract
A CPU radiator assembly includes an upper frame, a lower frame, a radiator block interposed between the upper and the lower frames, a pressing member extending across the radiator block and having a connecting end connected to the upper frame and a free end, and a control bar mounted on the upper frame to selectively apply a downward force on the free end of the pressing member and thereby push the radiator block and the lower frame downward in opposite to the upper frame, making the upper frame firmly grip the lower frame and the radiator block tightly contact the CPU below it. Fixed and movable legs having hooked lower ends connect the upper frame to the lower frame. The movable legs are pivotally turnable to disengage the hooked lower ends from the lower frame, so that the CPU radiator assembly could be easily assembled or disassembled.
