The present invention includes a lateral support member for a server computer constructed to permit advantageous airflow. The present invention can be operated to shunt organized airflow into multiple computer cases and/or organized airflow from multiple computer cases to a dedicated heat reservoir.

A heat dissipation case includes a case body, a carrying frame configured to be slidably mounted on the case body, a shutter rotationally mounted on the case body, and a number of levers rotationally mounted on the case body. One end of the levers resists against the shutter. The carrying frame is configured to resist against the other end of the levers, so that the end of the levers resisting against the shutter drives the shutter to rotate and open toward the carrying frame.

This invention describes the use of pre-packaged air shipping containers for delivery of edge data center equipment. The containers are capable of rapid deployment and positioning at the edge data center delivery site to minimize time between the order of equipment and deployment of a functioning edge data center. The containers allow for easy access, and rapid repair/replacement of modular edge data center equipment.

An electronic apparatus (1) includes a cooling fan (5) configured to generate an airflow that cools a part mounted on a circuit board (50), a flow passage wall (34) defining a flow passage of the airflow fed from the cooling fan (5), and a dust collecting chamber Ds configured to capture dust in the airflow and store the captured dust, the dust collecting chamber Ds being provided to the flow passage wall (34). According to this, the amount of the dust fed to air supply targets such as a heat sink and a power supply unit together with air can be reduced.

A server information handling system is secured by a bezel that couples to an access location, such as an air vent at a front or rear face of a housing. The bezel includes a security structure having a lock and configured to couple directly at the front face or with a bezel extension at the rear face so that the server information handling system can use the same bezel with both a front face or rear face rack mount. The bezel has a lock integrated with the security structure, an air filter that fits over the security structure to filter air flowing into the housing, and a filter brace that captures the air filter by coupling to the security structure over the air filter. The filter brace attaches and detaches at the security structure when the security structure locks a server information handling system housing so that the air filter can be changed while the housing remains secure.

Disclosed is a server rack system within an enclosed building and a process for directing air through a server facility. Air is channeled within a server rack assembly and then through a closed loop back again into the server rack assembly. Impediments may control the degree of airflow availability.

Techniques for fan mechanisms with adjustable side vents are disclosed. In one embodiment, a fan housing has several side vents that can direct airflow to components around the fan housing. Vent covers can block the vents, directing the airflow to the primary vent and the heatsink for the processor and other components. When the speed of a fan in the fan housing is increased, the vent covers open, directing airflow to components around the fan housing. In another embodiment, several vent channels are defined in the vent housing. A motor connected to a vent barrier can move the vent barrier to block or unblock the vent channels, allowing for control of airflow. In another embodiment, a fan channel module with one or more vent channels can be attached to the fan housing, allowing for a flexible array of airflow patterns for the same fan housing.

A multi-parameter patient monitoring device rack can dock a plurality of patient monitor modules and can communicate with a separate display unit. A signal processing unit can be incorporated into the device rack. A graphics processing unit can be attached to the display unit. The device rack and the graphic display unit can have improved heat dissipation and drip-proof features. The multi-parameter patient monitoring device rack can provide interchangeability and versatility to a multi-parameter patient monitoring system by allowing use of different display units and monitoring of different combinations of parameters. A dual-use patient monitor module can have its own display unit configured for displaying one or more parameters when used as a stand-alone device, and can be docked into the device rack when a handle on the module is folded down.

A cooling system for a plurality of heat-generating components in a chassis of an information handling system includes an array of fans, each fan operable to generate an airflow in a range of airflows, and a control system configured to monitor temperatures for the components and adjust a direction of one or more airflows based on the component temperatures. If a component temperature gets too high for a first fan associated with the component to cool the component, a portion of a second airflow generated by a second fan may be directed to provide additional airflow to the component such that the component is cooled without increasing the fan speed of the first fan. Adjacent fan speeds may also be adjusted to reduce losses due to differences between adjacent airflows.
