  • Patent number: 8611087
    Abstract: To cool a blade type server disposed in an air-conditioned room, the following arrangements are made. The first is at least one shell having a ventilation passage disposed in the air-conditioned room. The second is, the following are disposed in a ventilation passage: racks, in which blade type servers each composed of a case with slim boards housed therein are stacked; cooling coils each having a coolant passage and a cooling fin and cooling a passing air; and at least one fan unit having axial-flow fans placed therein and producing air currents in one direction. The third is the fan unit forces a cooling air to flow in one direction in the ventilation passage thereby to cool the servers in the racks. The cooling coils and racks are disposed alternately so that warmed cooling air after passing through the rack is cooled by the cooling coil and then cools the next rack.

  • Patent number: 7428154
    Abstract: A package structure to be mounted on was external printed circuit board includes a package board that is mounted with an exoergic circuit element, and a heat sink that radiates heat from the exoergic circuit element, wherein first pressure for connecting the heat sink to the package board is separated from second pressure for compressing the package board against the printed circuit board.

  • Patent number: 7055341
    Abstract: The cooling system allows the liquid coolant discharged from the pump to flow into the evaporation chamber. The liquid coolant passes through the atomizer. Minute droplets of the atomized coolant is discharged from the atomizer into the evaporation chamber. The minute droplets serve to form a uniform thin liquid film over the surface of the fin. Heat conducting from a target heat generating object to the fin promotes the evaporation of the liquid coolant over the surface of the fin, for example. The coolant absorbs a large amount of heat from the fin based on the evaporation. The target heat generating object can thus efficiently be cooled.
