ABSTRACT:
A multiple section heat pipe with swivel junctions between the sections. The individual sections are independent individual heat pipes configured to interlock with each other at rotatable joints filled with high heat conductivity liquid. The clearance between the sections is maintained small to establish capillary forces that maintain the conductive liquid in place and also to minimize the temperature differential across the rotating joint. When used in conjunction with several right angle heat pipes, the combination furnishes multiple possibilities for end to end relationship of a heat pipe system.
