  • Publication number: 20120147543
    Abstract: A modular data center includes a container and a heat-dissipating control system. The container defines an opening with a cover rotatably mounted to the container to cover or uncover the opening when needed to assist in dissipating heat. The heat-dissipating control system includes a temperature sensor, a comparison unit, and a driving device. The temperature sensor is used to sense a temperature in the container, and output a sensed temperature value. The comparison unit is used to receive the sensed temperature value, and compare the sensed temperature value with a first predetermined temperature value. When the sensed temperature value is greater than or equal to the first predetermined temperature value, the comparison unit outputs a control signal. The driving device is used to open the cover to expose the opening after receiving the first control signal.

  • Publication number: 20070134971
    Abstract: A transmission line that is plugged and unplugged includes a wire and at least one socket connecting to one end of the wire. The socket is connected to an electronic device and coupled with a force applying member. The force applying member rams the electronic device when subject to a force to facilitate separation of the socket and the electronic device. The force applying member is hinged on the socket and is divided by the hinged location to form a force applying portion and a pressing portion. When the force applying portion receives the force, the pressing portion generates a counter force about the hinged location against the electronic device to make the socket to be removed from the electronic device.
