  • Publication number: 20240032245
    Abstract: A cooling liquid flow switch includes top and bottom plates, and first and second rotatable inserts. The first rotatable insert is located within the first opening of the top plate. When in a first position, the first rotatable insert creates a first liquid flow configuration within the flow channels of the top plate. When in a second position, the first rotatable insert creates a second liquid flow configuration within the flow channels of the top plate. The second rotatable insert is located within the second opening of the bottom plate. When in a third portion, the second rotatable insert creates a third liquid flow configuration within the flow channels of the bottom plate. When in a second position, the second rotatable insert creates a fourth liquid flow configuration within the flow channels of the bottom plate.

  • Patent number: 11151978
    Abstract: A fan noise cancellation device comprises a base with a resonant ring formed with a plurality of resonance channels and a cover coupled to the base. Each resonance channel comprises an inner channel and an outer channel. Each inner channel has an opening to the resonant ring and has a length corresponding to a frequency. A baffle positioned in each inner channel determines an effective length of the inner channel. The inner channel baffles are coupled to the cover, wherein rotation of the cover relative to the resonance ring changes the position of the inner channel baffles to change the effective lengths of the inner channels to adjust the fan noise cancellation waveform frequency. Vanes on the cover are positioned in an airflow such that the airflow rotates the cover, and a spring in each resonance channel counteracts the rotation to adjust the inner channels.

  • Publication number: 20070248459
    Abstract: A centrifugal fan includes a spiral housing, a driving mechanism and multiple internally mounted impellers. The driving mechanism and the centrifugal impeller, rotated by the driving mechanism, are installed in the spiral housing. A spiral flow channel is defined between the centrifugal impeller and the spiral housing. When the centrifugal impeller rotates, airflow is sucked axially into the spiral housing through an inlet opening and moves along each blade of the centrifugal impeller into the spiral flow channel. The centrifugal impeller includes a hub and multiple blades. Each blade is secured to the hub at one end and has at least one vertical convex strip or vertical concave strip at an opposite end, wherein the vertical convex strip or vertical concave strip on each of blade disturbs the airflow across thereof and reduces narrow-band noise.
