When the existing pump 9 is in operation, the driving assembly 922 drives the impeller 923 to rotate, so that the working liquid can flow into the fan frame 921 through the liquid inlet 921a, then flow out of the liquid outlet 921b, and finally leave the casing 91 through the liquid outlet 912 of the casing 91.
However, in the conventional pump 9, since the pump 9 relies on electric power to drive the impeller 923 to rotate, an outlet hole is usually formed in the housing 91, a plug ring is disposed in the outlet hole to prevent liquid leakage, and a connection of the driving assembly 922 passes through the plug ring and is connected to an external power source; however, the plug ring is generally difficult to form a complete seal with the outlet hole due to tolerance, if no leakage protection is provided at the outlet hole, it is still easy to cause liquid leakage to the outside of the housing 91, and if the plug ring is not fixed and is displaced relative to the outlet hole, the connection is prone to be pulled or pressed to cause poor contact or breakage; especially, for the micro pump 9, it is difficult to assemble the plug ring and the wiring at the exact position of the wire hole in a narrow space, which causes inconvenience in assembly operation, and the leak-proof space is smaller, which makes it difficult to perform leak-proof work in a limited space, thereby affecting the driving efficiency of the pump 9.
In view of the above, there is a need for improvement of the existing pump.

Referring to fig. 5 and fig. 6a, an electrical port portion 324 of the driving component 32 can be located on the wiring board 321, the electrical port portion 324 can face the circuit board 1, the internal circuit 11 of the circuit board 1 can be electrically connected to the electrical port portion 324 through the conductive member 15, so that the internal circuit 11 is electrically connected to the electrical port portion 324, and the driving component 32 is further electrically connected to the internal circuit 11 of the circuit board 1; in the present embodiment, the conductive member 15 is illustrated as a conductive elastic sheet, but in other embodiments, the conductive member 15 may also be a conductive wire, a conductive pin or a socket to electrically connect the driving component 32 and the internal circuit 11, which is not limited in the present invention. In addition, since the working fluid flowing through the fluid space S is a non-conductive fluid when the pump P is operating, the driving assembly 32 can be selected without waterproof treatment, which not only does not cause short circuit, but also reduces the manufacturing cost.
Referring to fig. 4 and 5, the flow guiding fan 3 has an impeller 33, and the impeller 33 is driven by the driving assembly 32 to rotate, so that the non-conductive liquid can flow into the fan frame 31 from the liquid inlet 315 and then flow out from the liquid outlet 316.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6a, according to the above structure, since the pump P depends on the electric power to drive the impeller 33 to rotate, the driving component 32 must receive an external power source or a control signal, since the internal circuit 11 can be electrically connected to the external circuit 12 through the conductive material C in each through hole 13, and the external circuit 12 can be connected to the external power source or the control signal by welding the wire W, the external power source or the control signal can supply power to the driving component 32 through the external circuit 12 and the internal circuit 11 to provide the power source and the control signal required by the operation of the pump P; as shown in fig. 6b, a conductive via U may be selectively formed on the circuit board 1, and the wire W is soldered to the inner side 101 of the circuit board 1, wherein the conductive via U may be filled with a conductive material J, so that the wire W can be electrically connected to the external circuit 12, and the wire W is further prevented from being easily squeezed due to being directly connected to the lower copper layer 1 c. Therefore, the outer cover 2 does not need to be provided with a wire outlet hole for a wire to extend to the outside as in the prior art, and when the circuit board 1 and the outer cover 2 are assembled, the circuit board 1 and the outer cover 2 can be tightly combined, so that the situation that non-conductive liquid in the liquid flow space S leaks outside can be avoided.
In addition, since the conductive material C is filled to seal the plurality of through holes 13, the non-conductive liquid can be prevented from leaking out of the plurality of through holes 13.

Therefore, the non-conductive liquid in the tube assembly 6 and located at the heat absorption unit 4 can absorb heat energy to raise the temperature, and is guided to the heat dissipation unit 5 through the operation of the pump P, so as to be cooled when passing through the heat dissipation unit 5, and is guided to the heat absorption unit 4 again after being cooled; the circulation is continuously carried out, so that the heat source H can be effectively cooled.
The invention does not limit the types of the heat absorption unit 4 and the heat dissipation unit 5, and does not limit the circulating direction of the non-conductive liquid; that is, the heated non-conductive liquid may flow through the pump P and then be guided to the heat dissipation unit 5 (clockwise circulation as shown in fig. 7), or reversely circulate, so that the cooled non-conductive liquid flows through the pump P and then is guided to the heat absorption unit 4.
Referring to fig. 4 and 7, according to the above structure, when the liquid-cooled heat dissipation system with the pump P of the present embodiment operates, the heat energy can be absorbed by the non-conductive liquid at the heat absorption unit 4, so as to raise the temperature of the non-conductive liquid. When the pump P is operated, the liquid flow space S can be made to form a negative pressure by discharging the non-conductive liquid originally in the liquid flow space S, so as to introduce the high-temperature non-conductive liquid from the heat absorbing unit 4; the high-temperature non-conductive liquid flows into the liquid injection port 24 of the outer cover 2, flows into the fan frame 31 through the liquid inlet 315 of the guide fan 3, is pressurized by the impeller 33, flows out of the liquid outlet 316 of the guide fan 3, and finally leaves the liquid flow space S through the liquid outlet 25 of the outer cover 2 and is guided to the heat dissipation unit 5. The high-temperature non-conductive liquid can be cooled when passing through the heat dissipation unit 5, and is guided to the heat absorption unit 4 again after being cooled; the circulation is continued, so that the heat source H at the heat absorption unit 4 can be effectively cooled.
