A method for forming an end surface of a heat pipe and the structure
thereof are disclosed. Firstly, the mold module is provided for placing
the heat pipe therein. The mold module includes a mold chamber to receive
the heat pipe. Then, an extruding shaft is pushed forward into the mold
chamber from an end of the mold module. Next, the ends of the heat pipe
are compressed via the extruding shaft to render the end surface of the
heat pipe depressed from outside to inside. Thereby, the heat pipe with a
non-protrudent end surface is obtained. As such, the volume occupied by
the useless segment of the heat pipe is effectively reduced, or, the heat
pipe having a certain length to cooperate with more heat dissipating
fins.
