Patent number: 7643284Abstract: The present invention provides a portable computer in which an increase in temperature of a housing is suppressed. In the present invention, a guide plate is provided to suppress an increase in temperature of a bottom surface. When a cooling fan device operates, outside air taken in from inlet openings flows as an air current through a narrow flow path formed between the guide plate and the bottom surface. A flow velocity of the air current can be increased by narrowing the flow path, and heat exchange with the guide plate can be effectively performed, thereby sufficiently cooling a cooling surface. The cooled guide plate cools an air layer between the guide plate and the heat sink and thermally insulates between the air layer and the bottom surface.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2007Date of Patent: January 5, 2010Assignee: Lenovo Singapore Pte. LtdInventor: Fusanobu Nakamura

Patent number: 7643293Abstract: A heat dissipation device and a method for fabrication thereof are disclosed. The heat dissipation device includes a heat sink having a base, and a heat pipe embedded in the base. A groove is defined in the base. The groove is enclosed by a top surface and two sidewalls slantwise extending downwardly and inwards from opposite edges of the top surface. A width of a bottom portion of the groove is shorter than that of a top portion of the groove. The heat pipe includes an evaporation portion directly pressed in the groove by punching and fully contacts with the groove. The evaporating portion is flattened when it is fully engaged in the groove to directly contact with an electronic component. The method involves directly pressing the evaporation portion of the heat pipe into the groove of the base.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2007Date of Patent: January 5, 2010Assignee: Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventor: Ching-Hung Chu

Patent number: 7609521Abstract: A heat dissipation device includes a fin assembly, a base, a heat pipe soldered with the base, and a heat spreader sandwiched between the heat pipe and the fin assembly. The fin assembly has a bottom face. The base has a bottom surface and a top surface. The heat pipe comprises an evaporation portion thermally engaging with the top surface of the base plate and a curved portion extending from the evaporation portion and projecting beyond the base plate. The heat spreader has a first face engaging with the bottom face of the fin assembly and a second face thermally engaging with the condensation portion of the heat pipe. The heat spreader has a profile on the bottom face of the fin assembly, which is in compliance with at least a portion of the heat pipe.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2007Date of Patent: October 27, 2009Assignees: Fu Zhun Precision Industry (Shen Zhen) Co., Ltd., Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yi-Qiang Wu

Patent number: 7606037Abstract: A fastener for a heat-dissipating device is adapted to secure a heat sink on a securing seat. The fastener includes a fastening arm having a plate body and a coupling member adapted to couple with one positioning member of the securing seat, a fastening member disposed spacedly below the plate body opposite to the coupling member and adapted to couple with another positioning member, and two linkage sets. Each linkage set is disposed between the plate body and the fastening member, and includes first and second resilient connecting elements connected respectively to the plate body and the fastening member. The linkage sets are pivotable toward each other to cause the plate body to displace toward the fastening member such that the linkage sets engage two openings in the securing seat.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2007Date of Patent: October 20, 2009Assignee: Aopen Inc.Inventor: Chun Chang

Patent number: 7379299Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for enclosing electronic equipment in a noiseproofed and ventilated enclosure. This includes supplying air to an enclosure and removing air from the enclosure through acoustic chambers attached to the enclosure. The acoustic chambers can be constructed of materials or be treated with materials that have noise-absorbing or noise-abating properties. In addition, the acoustic chambers can contain baffles that prevent noise that has entered the acoustic chamber from leaving the chamber. And, the system and method can use a cable egress port that allows cables and wiring to pass through the egress port while blocking the transmission of noise through the egress port.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2006Date of Patent: May 27, 2008Assignee: Kell SystemsInventors: Tim Walsh, David O'Coimin

Patent number: 7256999Abstract: A heat collector includes a heat sink. A recess in the heat sink either forms or receives internal gas and liquid phase lines. A manifold may be integrally formed in the heat sink or may be added on. The manifold combines separate input and output connections into a composite input and output connection. An internal composite line may include the internal gas and liquid phase lines and may be connected to the composite connection of the manifold. The internal liquid phase line is fluidly connected to the internal gas phase line in a transition region of the composite line. Advantageously, the internal liquid phase line may be disposed inside the internal gas phase line for protection and positive heat transfer effects. A cover may hold the composite line in the recess and provide good thermal contact between the lines and the heat sink.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2004Date of Patent: August 14, 2007Assignee: Frontline SystemsInventor: Gregory S.
