Abstract: An electronic device console includes a console body that houses a chip package, and a duct extending from the console body. An interior volume of the duct is in fluid communication with an interior volume of the console body. A first vent is at a distal end of the duct. A second vent is in a wall of the console body. The console may be oriented in a first orientation and a second orientation. The duct functions as a chimney for natural convection cooling of the chip package when the console is oriented in the first orientation. The console body functions as a chimney for natural convection cooling of the chip package when the console is oriented in the second orientation.

Abstract: A heat sink includes a threaded rod. The threaded rod includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion may engage with a first heat sink fin and a second portion may engage with a second heat sink fin. The first portion includes a first external thread of a first diameter. The second portion includes a second external thread also of the first diameter and of different pitch than the first external thread. For example, the pitch of a first knurl of the threaded rod may be smaller than the pitch of a second threaded knurl of the threaded rod. The spacing of the heat sink fins may be adjusted based upon the current operating conditions of the electronic device to maintain an optimal temperature of a heat generating device during device operation.

Abstract: A heat sink includes a heat sink base/riser, a first fin, and a second fin. The spacing between the base/riser and the first fin and the second fin, restively, may be adjusted by rotating a threaded rod. The threaded rod includes a first threaded knurl that is engaged with the first fin and a second threaded knurl that is engaged with the second fin. The thread pitch of the first threaded knurl and the second threaded knurl may differ. For example, the pitch of the first threaded knurl may be smaller than the pitch of the second threaded knurl if the first fin is located nearest the heat sink base/riser relative to the second fin. The spacing of the heat sink fins may be adjusted based upon the current operating conditions of the electronic device to maintain an optimal temperature of a heat generating device during device operation.
