Abstract
A liquid cooling module comprises a substrate on which heat generating components to be cooled are mounted, a thermally conductive member secured to the substrate enclosing the heat generating components and a liquid cooling member having a chamber in which liquid is flowed. The thermally conductive member has a pair of two-motion coupling members one on each side thereof and the liquid cooling member has a pair of two-motion coupling members respectively engageable with the two-motion coupling members of the thermally conductive member when they are moved toward each other in a first direction and subsequently moved in a second direction with respect to each other normal to the first direction. An array of thermally conductive, springy contact elements are arranged between the thermally conductive member and the liquid cooling member. An aperture plate having an array of apertures corresponding to the contact elements is slidably mounted over the contact elements for holding the contact elements in compression to permit said members to move in the second direction and allowing the contact elements to partially extend through the corresponding apertures to establish thermal contact between the members.
