The housing (10) is of generally hexagonal shape, the facets (10a, 10b) being arranged around the circumference of the hexagon. Facets (10a) are inclined upwardly at an angle and alternate with facets (10b) that are inclined downwardly at the same angle. The connector sets (11) are disposed on the facets (10a, 10b) in consistent positions and in a regular array around the housing (10). The physical coupling elements (13) are disposed within or alongside the connector sets (11). Any number of modular computing elements (1) may readily be connected to one another in various different 2D and 3D configurations, with power and signal connections via the connector sets (11).

A computing device is made up of a number of watertight, interengaging, modular computing units immersed in a tank (4) of pure water (41). Each of the computing units has a housing, a data processor within the housing and at least one external electrical power connector connected to the data processor and provided on the housing. Each housing presents a plurality of facets, with external electrical power connectors arranged on different facets of the housing, for the transfer of electrical power with adjacent modular computing units. Each external electrical power connector is of platinum or plated with platinum; and the water (41) has an electrical conductivity of 5×10.sup.−3 S/m or less. The computing units interengage to form ball shapes, defining square holes 14a in the faces of the balls to allow water (41) to pass through the system by convection flow.

Systems and methods for an adjustable user interface for a wire feeder are provided. In some examples, welding power supplies, welding accessories, and/or welding wire feeders and welding wire feeder systems are equipped with one or more user interfaces adaptable to change position, orientation, or location, relative to a housing or support on which the user interface is secured. The adaptable user interfaces may be secured to a mount (e.g., an enclosure, a case, a surface, etc.) via one or more fasteners (e.g., screws, bolts, magnets, straps, snap-fit, detents, pins, etc.). For example, the fasteners may create a non-permanent joint between the user interface and the mount, such that the position, orientation, or location user interface may be adapted for a desired application.

A vent for reduced airflow impedance and increased electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding for an information handling system. The vent comprises two plates, wherein each plate comprises a plurality of structures. Each structure has a base opening with a first set of dimensions, a contact area with a second set of dimensions smaller than the first set of dimensions, and a wall extending at an angle from the base opening to the contact area. Each wall has a plurality of holes to increase the open percentage of the vent for decreased airflow impedance, which allows more airflow through the vent. The reduced size of each hole, the angled walls and continuous surface areas between adjacent structures reduce the amount of electromagnetic energy that can pass through the vent.

Other aspects are described and claimed.

A heating and air purifying apparatus using electronic device heat includes: a cabinet accommodating electronic devices including a central processing unit (CPU), a graphic processing unit (GPU), a power supply unit (PSU), and a main board, having an air inlet on a side, and having an air outlet on a top; one or more partition plates disposed vertically, horizontally, or diagonally across the inner surface of the cabinet; and a discharge fan installed at the air outlet and discharging air in the cabinet to the outside, in which a cooling fan of the GPU is disposed on a side of the one or more partition plate, a GPU body including a graphic card of the GPU is disposed on the opposite side, and the CPU, the PSU, and the main board are accommodated in a space facing a side of the one or more partition plate.

A pressing module includes a housing, an operation panel, a waterproof fixing frame, and an elastic member. The housing includes a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface and a slot. The slot passes through the first surface and the second surface. The operation panel is pressibly accommodated in the slot. The waterproof fixing frame is disposed on the second surface of the housing and the operation panel and covers a junction between the second surface and the operation panel. The elastic member is disposed on the waterproof fixing frame. The elastic member includes a fixed side and a movable side that are disposed on two opposite sides. The fixed side is fixed to the second surface, and the movable side is fixed to the operation panel, so that the elastic member can provide an elastic restoring force for the operation panel.

To provide enhanced operation of data storage devices and systems, various systems and apparatuses are provided herein. In a first example, a data storage assembly includes an enclosure configured to house at least one data storage device and a fan assembly configured to provide airflow within the enclosure to ventilate the at least one data storage device. A plurality of acoustic waves emanate into the data storage device from one or more fans of the fan assembly during operation. An acoustic attenuation device is positioned within the enclosure and configured to deflect at least a first portion of the plurality of acoustic waves away from the at least one data storage device and absorb a portion of acoustic wave energy of at least a second portion of the plurality of acoustic waves.
