  • Method and arrangement for enhancing the cooling capacity of portable computers
    Patent number: 6816371
    Abstract: An arrangement and method for enhancing the cooling capacity of portable personal computers. More particularly, disclosed is the provision of an arrangement for increasing the cooling capacity of laptop computers which are constrained in size, weight and power consumption, through which transfers and dissipates heat from semiconductor chips located in the computer and which are to be cooled, to the rear side of a liquid-crystal display of the laptop computer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 16, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 9, 2004
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Hiroaki Agata, Tarek J. Jamal-Eddine, Lawrence S. Mok
  • Cooling mechanism for an electronic device
    Patent number: 6752201
    Abstract: A cooling mechanism having a heat sink, a first conduction device, and a convection device is provided. The first conduction device conducts heat from a heat source to the heat sink. The convection device has a first side, a second side, a peripheral dimension. The heat sink is disposed about the peripheral dimension of the convection device. The convection device draws in air through the first and second sides and forces the air radially outward across the heat sink. A cooling mechanism is also provided wherein the cooling mechanism has a ratio of heat removal in watts to volume in cubic centimeters from about 1:1 to about 3:11 at a sound level of between about 20 and 40 decibels.
