COMPUTER HOUSING
A desktop computing system having at least a central core surrounded by housing having a shape that defines a volume in which the central core resides is described. The housing includes a first opening and a second opening axially displaced from the first opening. The first opening having a size and shape in accordance with an amount of airflow used as a heat transfer medium for cooling internal components, the second opening defined by a lip that engages a portion of the airflow in such a way that at least some of the heat transferred to the air flow from the internal components is passed to the housing.
HEATERS FOR MEDICAL DEVICES
A medical device comprising a multilayer printed circuit board (PCB) comprising a heating element on an inner layer of the PCB; a single cell electrical power source to power the heating element; and a chamber adapted to contain a liquid, at least part of said chamber being defined by a thermally conductive material configured to provide a thermal transfer interface between the chamber and the PCB.
Force balanced package mounting
An electronic device is provided that balances the force applied to temperature control elements such that stress within components of the electronic device can be effectively managed. In one example, an electronic device is provided that includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a chip package, a thermal management system, a thermal spreader, and first and second biasing members. The chip package is mounted to the PCB. The thermal management system and spreader are disposed the opposite of the chip package relative to the PCB. The first biasing member is configured to control a first force sandwiching the chip package between the thermal spreader and the PCB. The second biasing member is configured to control a second force applied by the thermal management system against the thermal spreader. The first force can be adjusted separately from the second force so that total forces applied to the chip package and PCB may be effectively balanced.
Device for Transferring Heat Between a First Module and a Second Module
The disclosure relates to a device for transferring heat between a second module, for example an optical transceiver module, and a first module, for example a heat sink. The device comprises a holder for holding the second module, a first unit configured to be thermally coupled to the first module, and a second unit which is urged against the second module placed in the holder by a biasing apparatus. The first and second units are thermally coupled to one another through a plurality of protrusions of the first or second unit and a plurality of complementary cavities of the other of the first and second unit.
Self latching cooling assembly
A cooling assembly includes a panel defining an opening, a cooling unit including an output and coupled to the panel such that the output at least partially covers the opening of the panel, and spring-loaded latch assemblies coupled to the panel and configured to couple the cooling assembly to an enclosure.

An internal component and external interface arrangement for a cylindrical compact computing system is described that includes at least a structural heat sink having triangular shape disposed within a cylindrical volume defined by a cylindrical housing. A computing engine having a generally triangular shape is described having internal components that include a graphics processing unit (GPU) board, a central processing unit (CPU) board, an input/output (I/O) interface board, an interconnect board, and a power supply unit (PSU).
Arrangement of electrical modules, converter and aircraft with such an arrangement, and method for producing the arrangement
The invention specifies an arrangement having at least one electrical module (2) which is arranged on a heat sink (3). The arrangement has: —first deflection elements (4) which are formed in or on the electrical module (2), —second deflection elements (5) which are formed in or on the heat sink (3), and—at least one flexible, cable- or strip-like tensioning element (1), —which is arranged between the first and second deflection elements (4, 5) under tension (F) in such a way that the electrical module (2) is pressed onto the heat sink (3). A converter and an aircraft having an arrangement of this kind and also a method for producing an arrangement of this kind are likewise specified.
Electrical connector assembly having floating heat sink in resilient manner
An electrical connector assembly includes a seat unit and a cover unit. The seat unit defines a receiving cavity for receiving the CPU. The cover unit is pivotably mounted upon one end of the seat unit. The cover unit includes a first cover and a second cover surrounding the first cover. The first cover includes a first frame equipped with therein a floating heat sink which is located above and aligned with the receiving cavity. The heat sink forms a pair of side extensions sandwiched between a pair of pressing blocks and the first frame in a vertical direction and essentially downwardly pressed by the pair of pressing blocks of the first cover in a resilient manner. Resilient mechanism is provided between the pressing block and the heat sink to result in a downward force constantly urge the heat sink downwardly against the first frame.
Inverter
The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor, and in particular to an inverter. The inverter provided by the present application includes a substrate, a discrete device and a heat conducting component. The discrete device and the heat conducting component are both arranged on the substrate. A part of the heat conducting component is located in an area of the substrate where the discrete device is provided, and another part of the heat conducting component is located in an area of the substrate where the discrete device is not provided. The heat conducting component may rapidly transfer the heat of the overheated area of the substrate where the discrete device is mounted to the less hot area of the substrate, and promote the heat generated by the discrete device to spread evenly to the substrate.
THERMAL BRIDGE FOR AN ELECTRICAL COMPONENT
A thermal bridge includes upper and lower bridge assemblies including upper and lower plates arranged in stacks. Sides of the plates face each other to thermally interface the lower plates with the upper plates. The thermal bridge includes a spring element positioned between the upper bridge assembly and the lower bridge assembly. The thermal bridge includes an internal bridge frame having connecting elements that extend internally through the upper plates and the lower plates to hold the upper plates in the upper plate stack and to hold the lower plates in the lower plate stack.
