  • Patent number: 8542486
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus with improved heat dissipation comprises a first body with a first shell and a second shell, a second body, a coupling device and a linkage device. The first shell is pivotally connected to the second shell to form an accommodation space. The first shell can pivot relative to the second shell to enlarge the accommodation space and form an opening between the first shell and the second shell. The coupling device couples the second body and the second shell to pivot the second body relative to the second shell to expose or hide the first shell. The linkage device drives the first shell to pivot relative to the second shell. When the second body pivots relative to the second shell toward a first direction, the linkage device drives the first shell to pivot relative to the second shell toward a second direction opposite to the first direction.

  • Patent number: 8388221
    Abstract: A corresponding relation between heat resistance values of first heat dissipation modules under a non-uniform heat source and heat resistance values of the first heat dissipation modules under a uniform heat source is described through a linear equation. Therefore, before second heat dissipation modules are tested, a calculation is performed with the linear equation, such that a target heat resistance value of the first heat dissipation modules arranged on the non-uniform heat source is corresponding to a standard heat resistance value of the first heat dissipation modules arranged on the uniform heat source. Afterwards, it is predicted whether the second heat dissipation modules arranged on the non-uniform heat source satisfy a test standard or not by using a test heat resistance value acquired by testing the second heat dissipation modules arranged on the uniform heat source.
