  • Vapor chambers
    Patent number: 11930620
    Abstract: There is disclosed in one example a heat dissipator for an electronic apparatus, including: a planar vapor chamber having a substantially rectangular form factor, wherein a second dimension d2 of the rectangular form factor is at least approximately twice a first dimension d1 of the rectangular form factor; a first fan and second fan; and a first heat pipe and second heat pipe discrete from the planar vapor chamber and disposed along first and second d1 edges of the planar vapor chamber, further disposed to conduct heat from the first and second d1 edges to the first and second fan respectively.

  • Vapor chamber and means of attachment
    Patent number: 11573055
    Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can be configured to include a vapor chamber and means of attachment for the vapor chamber. The vapor chamber can include one or more columns, where at least a portion of the columns include fiber braids and one or more wicks. At least one of the wicks can also include the fiber braids. The columns can be braised to a top plate or a bottom plate of the vapor chamber. The vapor chamber can be secured over a heat source using a vapor chamber securing means that can include spring arms. The spring arms can bend, flex, rotate, etc. to absorb some of the force when vapor chamber is secured over the heat source.
