Abstract
A heat sink clip assembly () for attaching a heat sink () on a CPU () includes a retention frame (), and a pair of clips () pivotally attached to two sides of the retention frame. Each clip includes a main body (), and a handle () pivotally attached to the main body. The main body includes a cross beam (), and two locking arms () respectively depending from opposite ends of the cross beam. Each locking arm defines a locking hole () at a distal end. The handle has a cam portion () at one end thereof. The clips are pivoted outwardly to make way for the heat sink to seat on the CPU. Then the clips are pivoted upwardly, so that the cross beam is suspended above the heat sink. The handle is pivoted downwardly so that the cam portion presses the heat sink to the CPU.
