A coupling mechanism for radiator aims to fasten a radiator to a heat generating element of a socket on a main board for absorbing the thermal energy generated by the heat generating element. The coupling mechanism includes a first anchor dock, a second anchor dock and a latch element. The first anchor dock and the second anchor dock are located on two opposite ends of the socket. The latch element passes through the gap of the radiation fins of the radiator and straddles the radiator. It has one end pivotally engaging with the first anchor dock and another end selectively engaging with the second anchor dock. The latch element further has an elastic section formed in the middle portion to put the radiator in close contact with the heat generating element. The coupling mechanism thus constructed can increase the surface area of the radiation fins of the radiator to achieve the maximum radiation effect.
