  • Patent number: 7768782
    Abstract: An improvement for an assembly for use in a computing device which includes a microprocessor and a motherboard and a socket for receiving and making electric contact with the microprocessor. A heat sink is included which is in thermal contact with the microprocessor whereby a water barrier is applied to and proximate the socket for preventing water of condensation from contacting areas covered by the water barrier and a moisture absorbent surrounding the heat sink.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 6, 2009
    Date of Patent: August 3, 2010
    Inventor: Alan Mark Cohen
  • Patent number: 7595987
    Abstract: Computing devices, including laptop computers, desk top computers, servers and video game terminals employ microprocessors which generate considerable heat. In fact, the heat generated from microprocessors is generally considered the limiting factor in computing speed. A heat sink is provided in thermal contact with a microprocessor whereby a water barrier is applied to and proximate a socket configured within the computing device's motherboard for preventing water of condensation from contacting areas covered by the water barrier.
