Patent number: 10855870Abstract: A digital video camera, including a heat management system, which includes at least one inlet and at least one outlet in the housing to enable air to flow through the housing. The heat management system also includes a first heat sink thermally connected to an image sensor(s), and a second heat sink thermally connected to a data processing unit(s), and a centrifugal fan. The centrifugal fan is configured to draw air into the front of the fan in an axial direction and push air radially out in a sideways direction, whereby air travels through the inlet(s) over the first heat sink and then over the second heat sink to the outlet(s).Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2019Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: BLACKMAGIC DESIGN PTY LTDInventors: Grant Petty, Simon Kidd, John Vanzella, Michael Cornish, Shannon Smith, Suan Heng Yeo, Nathan Lee
