AIR FLOW GENERATING DEVICE
An air flow generating device includes an enclosing wall, a frame sheet, a cover film, and a vibrating part. The frame sheet is disposed inside an air flow passage formed by the enclosing wall and closely contacts the air flow passage by its periphery. The cover film includes a central connection portion fixed to a central portion of the frame sheet, and a plurality of movable cover portions connected to the central connection portion. The cover film is between the frame sheet and an outlet of the air flow passage. The movable cover portions selectively cover a plurality of through holes of the frame sheet. The vibrating part is fixed on the frame sheet. When the vibrating part vibrates, the central portion and the central connection portion move together with the vibrating part so that the movable cover portions seal the through holes or move relative to the through holes.

GAS-DETECTABLE MOBILE POWER DEVICE
A gas-detectable mobile power device is disclosed and includes a main body, a gas detection module, a driving and controlling board, a power module and a microprocessor. The main body includes a ventilation opening, a connection port and an accommodation chamber. The ventilation opening is in communication with the accommodation chamber. The gas detection module and the driving and controlling board are disposed within the accommodation chamber. The gas detection module, the power module and the microprocessor are fixed on and electrically connected to the driving and controlling board. The power module is capable of storing an electric energy and outputting the electric energy outwardly. The microprocessor enables the gas detection module to detect and operate. The microprocessor converts the detection information of the gas detection module into a detection data, which is stored and transmitted to the mobile device or an external device.
PIEZOELECTRIC MEMS-BASED ACTIVE COOLING FOR HEAT DISSIPATION IN COMPUTE DEVICES
An active cooling system and method for using the active cooling system are described. The active cooling system includes a cooling element having a first side and a second side. The first side of the cooling element is distal to a heat-generating structure and in communication with a fluid. The second side of the cooling element is proximal to the heat-generating structure. The cooling element is configured to direct the fluid using a vibrational motion from the first side of the cooling element to the second side such that the fluid moves in a direction that is incident on a surface of the heat-generating structure at a substantially perpendicular angle and then is deflected to move along the surface of the heat-generating structure to extract heat from the heat-generating structure.
