Abstract

A fan holder, for attaching a fan to a heat sink, includes a base, fasteners, and clamping arms. The fasteners extend from the base. Each of the fasteners defines an arc-shaped locking portion engaging with the fan. The clamping arms extend from the base opposite to the fasteners, and engage with the heat sink to thereby attach the fan to the heat sink.
