This document describes a passive thermal-control system that can be integrated into an electronic speaker device and associated electronic speaker devices. The passive thermal-control system uses an architecture that combines heat spreaders and thermal interface materials to transfer heat from heat-generating electronic devices of the electronic speaker device to a housing component of the electronic speaker device. The housing component dissipates the heat to prevent a thermal runaway condition.

A heat discharge device having a bottom plate having a bottom and an upper surface. Heat discharge blades extend between two front faces of the bottom plate and inclinations of the heat discharge blades are configured in a way such that neighbouring heat discharge blades alternatingly approach one another and move away from each other. Neighbouring heat discharge blades are connected to one another at the end regions facing away from the upper surface of the bottom plate directly and delimit a first air flow channel. Neighbouring heat discharge blades delimit a second air flow channel, which is open at the side facing away from the upper surface of the bottom plate. The heat discharge blades have a group of air vents, wherein the first air flow channels are open at the opposite distal ends thereof and the second air flow channels are closed at the opposite distal ends thereof.

In a vehicle camera device, a camera is housed inside a bracket of a base, and a stud bolt of the base is connected to a side door. Heat generated by the camera is transferred to the side door via the bracket, the base, and the stud bolt. Therefore, the heat generated by the camera can be efficiently released from the camera.

A heat exchanger includes a plurality of fins that are spaced from each other and are arranged to divide a heat medium flow passage into a plurality of narrow passages. Each fin incudes a plurality of thick wall portions and a plurality of thin wall portions which are alternately arranged in a passage longitudinal direction. Each adjacent two of the plurality of fins, which are adjacent to each other, are defined as one fine and another fin, and each of the plurality of thick wall portions of the one fin is opposed to an adjacent one of the plurality of thin wall portions of the another fin in a fin arrangement direction, and each of the plurality of thin wall portions of the one fin is opposed to an adjacent one of the plurality of thick wall portions of the another fin in the fin arrangement direction.

A system for controlling temperatures within a rearview assembly may comprise a rearview assembly having a housing defining an opening and at least one of a display element and an electro-optic element disposed in the opening; and an in-cabin monitoring system comprising at least one printed circuit board; an imager disposed on one of the at least one printed circuit boards, an image signal processor in communication with the imager, at least one light source, and at least one heat spreader positioned within the housing. The heat spreader may be stamped aluminum. The imager may be at a distance from the at least one light source.

An apparatus for thermal interface material detection includes a heatsink stack up with a heatsink, a thermal interface material, a heat generating component, and a printed circuit board. The heatsink is disposed on the thermal interface material, the thermal interface material is disposed on the heat generating component, and the heat generating component is disposed on the printed circuit board. A channel in a body of the heatsink is configured for insertion of a compression probe, where a first end of the channel leads to a lower surface of the body of the heatsink and a second end of the channels leads to an upper surface of the body of the heatsink.

A system for cooling of computing components of an information handling system, including a printed circuit board (PCB); a computing card connector coupled to the PCB, the computing card connector including first mating features; a computing card coupled to the computing card connector; and a thermal plate including a first end and a second end positioned opposite to the first end, the second end including second mating features that correspond to the first mating features of the computing card connector, wherein the thermal plate is coupled to the computing card connector at the second end of the thermal plate such that the second mating features of the thermal plate are mated with the first mating features of the computing card connector.

The disclosed computing device may include electronic components, at least one of which is a processor. The computing device may also include a heat sink thermally coupled to the electronic components, as well as a temperature sensor that determines the current temperature inside the computing device. The computing device may further include a controller. The processor may generate a load schedule for the electronic components based on the current temperature inside the computing device. This load schedule ensures that a maximum temperature for the heat sink is not exceeded even when the total system power load exceeds, for a short period of time, the maximum sustainable power level the heat sink can dissipate. The controller may then load the electronic components according to the generated load schedule. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

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.

The camera module with improved heat dissipation function include a base, a photosensitive chip, a circuit board; and a heat conducting sheet. Wherein the base comprises a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. A portion of the first surface is recessed to form a third surface between the first surface and the second surface, and to form a plurality of sidewalls connecting the first surface and the third surface, the third surface and the plurality of sidewalls cooperatively define a slot. Wherein the photosensitive chip is fixed on the third surface and accommodated in the slot; the circuit board is fixed on the first surface. A gap is defined between the circuit board and the photosensitive chip; the heat conducting sheet is disposed in the gap.
