  • Publication number: 20090312877
    Abstract: A heat dissipation gate control system includes a magnetic element, an electromagnetic element and an elastic element. The magnetic element is coupled to a heat dissipation gate. The electromagnetic element is provided for generating a magnetic force to enable the magnetic element to drive the heat dissipation gate open. The elastic element has an end coupled to the heat dissipation gate and applies an elastic force to the heat dissipation gate to enable the heat dissipation gate closed when the electromagnetic element stops generating the magnetic force for the magnetic element. A method of controlling a heat dissipation gate is also disclosed herein.
