Abstract
A fastening device is used to tightly attach the heat sink on an electronic element. The fastening device includes an elastic arm, a first latch element and a second latch element. The elastic arm has a first axial part, a second axial part, and a press part. The first latch element is secured to one side of the socket for mounting the electronic element thereon and pivotally coupled to the first axial part, and the second latch element is pivotally coupled to the second axial part. As the elastic arm turns about the first latch element and crosses the heat sink, the second latch element is allowed to be fastened onto another side of the socket. Thus, the press part of the elastic arm would urge against the heat sink to enable the heat sink to be tightly attached on the electronic element.
