  • Publication number: 20240117487
    Abstract: A 2D layered thin film structure is disclosed. The 2D layered thin film structure can be applied to the growth of monocrystalline or polycrystalline group III nitrides and other 2D materials. The 2D layered thin film structure can be easily separated from the 2D layered thin film structure growth substrate, so that a single or composite nanopillar array structure formed by the monocrystalline or polycrystalline group III nitride or other 2D materials, or the 2D layered thin film structure can be transferred to any other substrate. In addition, the 2D layered thin film structure has excellent light transmittance, flexibility and component integration.

  • Publication number: 20090215380
    Abstract: A fan module for failure backup includes a flow guide structure and a first and a second fan disposed coaxially. The first and second fans are accommodated in the flow guide structure, and the flow guide structure has an air inlet and two vents respectively corresponding to the first and the second fan. The two vents respectively have a movable cover plate. The first and the second fan operate at a low speed in a normal state, such that the cover plate assumes an open state to provide a low speed air flow. When one of the fans fails to operate, the cover plate thereof assumes a closed state, and the other fan operates in a high speed to provide a high speed air flow, thereby achieving a purpose of failure backup.

  • Patent number: 7363964
    Abstract: A heat sink includes a base, a set of fins mounted to the base and a plurality of fixing portions, wherein the fixing portions extend from a surface of the base and the set of fins are mounted on an opposite surface of the base. The heat sink is secured to a printed circuit board with at least one heat generating component through the fixing portion of the base. The heat sink is improved by forming one or more slots at lateral sides of the base such that one or more deformable portions can be defined on the base. Thus, the deformable length of the base is increased and the heat stress is relaxed.

  • Patent number: 7224584
    Abstract: A miniaturized fan module can be accommodated in an electronic system (such as a server) to provide heat dissipation. The miniaturized fan module has a smaller structural size than that of a conventional fan module, such that a larger bump-preventing buffer space between the miniaturized fan module and a framework of the server is provided for preventing the fan module from bumping against the server framework due to vibration generated in practical operation, without degrading a heat dissipating effect and structural strength of the fan module.

  • Patent number: 7206206
    Abstract: A radiator structure includes a radiator frame, a radiator and a plurality of elastic latch members. The radiator frame is mounted onto a main board corresponding to an electronic element, and has a plurality of coupling sections and an opening corresponding to the electronic element and the surface of the electronic element exceeds its peripheral edges. The radiator is mounted on the radiator frame in contact with the surface of the electronic element, and has a plurality of latch sections corresponding to the coupling sections. The elastic latch member coupled on the latch section is bent to form a force applying section, a latch arm and a swinging arm. After the force applying section receives a force, the swinging arm coupled on the latch section is turned to enable the latch arm to latch on the coupling section thereby to anchor the radiator on the radiator frame to disperse heat.

  • Publication number: 20060254755
    Abstract: A radiation board consists of a case and a lid. The case has a plurality of circulation channels formed on an inner wall. The lid seals the case to confine an operation fluid in the circulation channels of the case. The lid has miniature flutes corresponding to the circulation channels. Heat generated by a heat-generating element during operation is transferred through the lid to the operation fluid to vaporize the operation fluid. The miniature flutes help to condense the vaporized operation fluid into a liquid again. The operation fluid circulates in the case through the circulation channels to evenly distribute heat to the entire device. The radiation board is easy to fabricate at a low cost.

  • Patent number: 6938683
    Abstract: A radiator, adopted on electronic devices with radiator fans installed in series, includes a case, two or more radiator fans and a membrane check valve. The radiator fans are located on the inner wall surface of the case. The membrane check valve has a frame, at least one bracing bracket and membrane petals. The frame is located between the radiator fan and the inner wall surface of the case. The bracing bracket is located in the frame to form a plurality of cells with the frame. The membrane petals' one end attaches to one side of the frame and is more directed towards air outlets of the radiator fans than the bracing bracket. When any radiator fans stops operation, air inside the electronic devices flow outwards in the positive direction to balance the pressure and prevent heat dissipation efficiency of the electronic devices from dropping excessively.

  • Publication number: 20050045278
    Abstract: A plate evaporator includes a first thermal conductive element and a second thermal conducive element. The rim of the first thermal conductive element is formed with a first joining portion. The second thermal conductive element is like a cap having a second joining portion at the rim and correspondent to the first joining portion of the first thermal conductive element. Therefore, upon assembling the two thermal conductive elements, the first and second joining portions are engaged. When brazing, only the joining portions are at high temperature. The temperature rise does not apply to the whole thermal conductive elements and does not influence the strength of the structure.
