Access points can be mounted in a variety of locations or orientations and can support multiple communications protocols. In some embodiments, an access point includes a main housing and a front housing. The main and front housing are connected by a hinge. A Wi-Fi antenna is included in the front housing in some embodiments. The access point is configured for use in either an open or closed position. When mounted in a vertical position, the front housing can be lowered into a horizontal position, which facilitates a preferred orientation of an antenna with respect to the ground. A first set of cooling fins serves to maintain components of the access point offset from a wall to which the access point is mounted. This facilitates airflow. Additional fins act as a spacer between the main housing and the front housing when the access point is used in a closed position. This facilitates air flow around both sides of the main housing.

A cooling structure includes: a main body including a base, and heat dissipation fins and a protrusion that protrude from a heat dissipation surface; a lid member disposed to cover the protrusion and the fins and form a flow path; and a fan mechanism. The fan mechanism includes a vane portion, a driving portion that rotates the vane portion, and a conductive wire for supplying electric power to the driving portion. The protrusion includes a first through hole, and the base includes a second through hole communicating with the first through hole. The conductive wire includes a first portion connected to the driving portion and disposed between the lid member and the main body, and a second portion continuing from the first portion and inserted in the first through hole and the second through hole. The cooling structure enables enhancement of the heat dissipation and shielding performance.

An air pressure in fuel cells of an electric power generation system comprising a fuel cell stack (PCS) is raised with a pressurized air cooling system with recirculation to values at least two times greater than typical values for an PCS with air cooling. The FCS is either placed in a high-pressure chamber to which air is injected, or air outgoing from the FCS is redirected via a duct back to the FCS inlet and a portion of pressurized fresh air is added thereto. The chamber or the duct is provided with a radiator by means of which circulating air heat is transferred into the external environment. Air recirculation in the chamber or the duct is effected by means of fans for cooling fuel cells. Useful capacity of electric power generation systems based on fuel cells is raised significantly, the necessity of using a humidifier is excluded, and the temperature range of fuel cell operation is expanded.

A heat sink faces an exhaust port of a blower fan in use, and includes: a first plate-shaped portion; a second plate-shaped portion disposed in parallel with the first plate-shaped portion having a gap therebetween; a plurality of fins that stand up between the first plate-shaped portion and the second plate-shaped portion and are disposed side by side with a gap therebetween to define an air flow path between the fins, through which air flows from the exhaust port; and a protrusion that is disposed at a part of each fin including a center of the upright height, and protrudes into the air flow path.

An electrical contactor assembly includes an electrical contactor having an electrical lead having a contactor pin extending therefrom, an electrical bus bar, and at least one post extending between the electrical contactor and the electrical bus bar. The post is constructed from an electrically and thermally conductive material. The post includes an opening for receiving the contactor pin and the opening includes a contactor-foil material disposed in contact with the pin.

An electrical device heat dissipation structure includes an air blowing device, a casing, and a mating connector. The casing is disposed with at least one air outlet, an electrical connector and a power supply. The power supply provides power to the air blowing device. The mating connector has a chip. The mating connector is electrically connected with the electrical connector. The air blowing device is configured to blow air to the mating connector through the at least one air outlet, so as to improve dissipation of heat generated by the chip at work, and to reduce a temperature of the mating connector.

A heat sink assembly includes a casing having an opening, a main board accommodated in the casing, a heat sink mounted on the main board, an electrical connector mounted on the main board and exposed in the opening, a mating connector located outside the casing and connected to the electrical connector through the opening in a plugging manner, and a heat conductor, disposed inside the casing. The mating connector has a chip that is electrically connected to the electrical connector. One end of the heat conductor is connected to the heat sink, and the other end of the heat conductor is thermally connected to the electrical connector or the mating connector, so that heat generated by the chip during working can be transferred to the heat sink through the heat conductor, thereby reducing a temperature of the mating connector.

Internal interchangeable modular avionics platform assemblies and methods for removably mounting and interchanging modular avionics platforms within an aircraft. In some embodiments, modular avionics platform assemblies may include a modular avionics platform configured to support various avionics equipment, suitable for removable mounting within a forward fuselage, and interchangeable with a number of alternate platforms. A platform may include a frame structure, and mounting pins and a connector assembly disposed on the frame structure. The mounting pins may project outwardly from the frame structure to align with and detachably secure to corresponding airframe members of an aircraft when the frame structure is in a mounted position. The connector assembly may be disposed on the frame structure and have a plurality of connectors, including connectors for alternating current, direct current, and data. In some embodiments, the platform may also include an environmental cooling system disposed on the frame structure.

A wearable electronic device is disclosed. The device can include a support structure and an electronic component disposed in or on the support structure. A heat exchanger element can be thermally coupled with the electronic component, the heat exchanger element comprising a fluid inlet port and a fluid outlet port. A first conduit can be fluidly connected to the fluid inlet port of the heat exchanger, the first conduit configured to convey, to the heat exchanger, liquid at a first temperature. A second conduit can be fluidly connected to the fluid outlet port of the heat exchanger, the second conduit configured to convey, away from the heat exchanger, liquid at a second temperature different from the first temperature.

An outdoor-mountable, telecommunications module, comprising: an environmentally hardened housing; telecommunications equipment encased within the housing and disposed for rotation about an axis within the housing; and a thermal load mitigation system employing (i) a heat spreader structure for thermal conduction of heat away from at least some heat-generating components of the telecommunications equipment, to a rotatable heat sink structure received within the housing, (ii) an arrangement for primarily thermal conduction of heat across a small air gap between the rotatable heatsink structure and a non-rotating heat sink structure collocated within the housing, and (iii) an arrangement for convective heat dissipation into the environment from a radiator structure disposed outside of the housing and which is in direct thermal conductive arrangement with the non-rotating heat sink structure disposed inside of the housing.
