  • Patent number: 11808274
    Abstract: A blower includes a first tower and a second tower spaced apart from each other each having discharge ports that face each other. A gate is movably installed in at least one of the first tower or the second tower to protrude into and out of the space between the first and second towers to change a flow of air discharged out of the discharge ports. A guide motor may be configured to move the gate. The discharge ports may be provided at a rear side of the space to discharge air toward a front of the space, while the gate may be moved to cover the front side of the space to guide air upward.

  • Publication number: 20230352359
    Abstract: A semiconductor device has an electrical component and a first TIM with a first compliant property is disposed over a surface of the electrical component. A second TIM having a second compliant property greater than the first compliant property is disposed over the surface of the electrical component within the first TIM. A third TIM can be disposed over the surface of the electrical component along the first TIM. A heat sink is disposed over the first TIM and second TIM. The second TIM has a shape of a star pattern, grid of dots, parallel lines, serpentine, or concentric geometric shapes. The first TIM provides adhesion for joint reliability and the second TIM provides stress relief. Alternatively, a heat spreader is disposed over the first TIM and second TIM and a heat sink is disposed over a third TIM and fourth TIM on the heat spreader.

  • Patent number: 11802569
    Abstract: First and second towers may discharge air. An airflow guide or converter may change a direction of the air discharged from the first tower and the second tower by moving a gate inside and outside of at least one of the first or second towers so as to block discharged air flowing forward and selectively facilitate an upward air flow. The airflow converter may include a guide motor to provide a driving force, the gate, which may reciprocate between the inside and the outside of the first and/or second towers; and a board guider connected to the gate to transmit a driving force of the guide motor to the gate as a linear motion force.
