The heat dissipation module includes a body, a plurality of first inlets, a plurality of first outlets, a plurality of second inlets, a plurality of second outlets, a plurality of first flow paths and a plurality of second flow paths, wherein the first flow paths are staggered with the second flow paths, and the first inlets and the first outlets are communicated with the first flow paths, the second inlets and the second outlets are communicated with the second flow paths, the body includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the first inlets and the first outlets are formed on the first surface, and the second inlets and the second outlets are formed on the second surface.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A heat exchanger comprising:
 a heat dissipation module comprising a body, a plurality of first inlets, a plurality of first outlets, a plurality of second inlets, a plurality of second outlets, a plurality of first flow paths and a plurality of second flow paths, wherein the first flow paths are staggered with the second flow paths, and the first inlets and the first outlets are communicated with the first flow paths, the second inlets and the second outlets are communicated with the second flow paths;   a first heat-dissipating device guiding a first flow to enter the first flow paths through the first inlets and leave the first flow paths through the first outlets; and   a second heat-dissipating device guiding a second flow to enter the second flow paths through the second inlets and leave the second flow paths through the second outlets.   
     
     
         2 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first heat-dissipating device corresponds to the first inlets to guide the first flow into the first flow path. 
     
     
         3 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the second heat-dissipating device corresponds to the second inlets to guide the second flow into the second flow path. 
     
     
         4 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first heat-dissipating device and the second heat-dissipating device are axial fans or blowers. 
     
     
         5 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first flow path and the second flow path are U-shaped. 
     
     
         6 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the body comprises a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the first inlets and the first outlets are formed on the first surface, and the second inlets and the second outlets are formed on the second surface. 
     
     
         7 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the body is cubic and comprises a third surface and a fourth surface, wherein the third surface is parallel and opposite to the fourth surface, and the first and second surfaces are perpendicular to the third and fourth surfaces. 
     
     
         8 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the first heat-dissipating device is disposed close to the third surface, and the second heat-dissipating device is disposed close to the fourth surface. 
     
     
         9 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 6 , further comprising a cabinet with an accommodating space having a supporting surface, and the heat dissipation module, the first heat-dissipating device and the second heat-dissipating device are disposed in the cabinet. 
     
     
         10 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein a first included angle between the first surface and the supporting surface is smaller than 90 degrees, and a second included angle between the second surface and the supporting surface is smaller than 90 degrees 
     
     
         11 . A heat exchanger comprising:
 a cabinet having an accommodating space, wherein the accommodating space has a supporting surface;   a heat dissipation module disposed in the accommodating space, wherein the heat dissipation module comprises a body, a plurality of first inlets, a plurality of first outlets, a plurality of second inlets, a plurality of second outlets, a plurality of first flow paths and a plurality of second flow paths, wherein the first inlets and the first outlets are communicated with the first flow paths, the second inlets and the second outlets are communicated with the second flow paths, the body comprises a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the first inlets are formed on the first surface, the second inlets are formed on the second surface, a first included angle between the first surface and the supporting surface is smaller than 90 degrees, and a second included angle between the second surface and the supporting surface is smaller than 90 degrees;   an inner heat-dissipating device disposed in the accommodating space for guiding a first flow to enter the first flow paths through the first inlets and leave the first flow paths through the first outlets; and   an outer heat-dissipating device disposed in the accommodating space for guiding a second flow to enter the second flow paths through the second inlets and leave the second flow paths through the second outlets.   
     
     
         12 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the inner heat-dissipating device corresponds to the first inlets to guide the first flow into the first flow path. 
     
     
         13 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the outer heat-dissipating device corresponds to the second inlets to guide the second flow into the second flow path. 
     
     
         14 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the inner heat-dissipating device and the outer heat-dissipating device are axial fans or blowers. 
     
     
         15 . The heat exchanger as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the first flow path and the second flow path are U-shaped.
