Abstract
A heat pipe connector includes a housing having a hole shaped like a quadrangular pyramid with a large opening and a small opening. A plurality of clamp pieces are combined into a body that can be fitted into the hole shaped like a quadrangular pyramid. A heat pipe insertion opening, into which a heat pipe is inserted, is formed in the center of the combined pieces. Springs energize each clamp piece toward the small opening of the hole shaped like a quadrangular pyramid. The heat pipe is inserted into the heat pipe insertion opening from the side of the small opening of the housing hole shaped like a quadrangular pyramid. It is configured such that a spring force; of the springs as well as lateral surfaces of the hole shaped like a quadrangular pyramid apply a force to the clamp pieces to clamp the heat pipe.
