Abstract
A clip (40) adapted to attach a heat sink (30) to an electronic device (20) includes a body (50) and a lever (70). The lever is fastened to the body with a pivot (96). The lever includes a pressing portion (74) and a bore (80). First and second contact points (76, 78) are defined at a lower edge of the pressing portion at different distances from the bore. The clip is initially placed in a groove (36) of the heat sink, whereupon the first contact point abuts a top surface of the groove. When the lever is fully depressed, the second contact point firmly abuts the top surface of the groove. Thus the clip securely attaches the heat sink to the electronic device.
