  • Patent number: 10602602
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a heat sink for a plug-in card and a plug-in card including the heat sink. The heat sink comprises a first part secured to a surface of the plug-in card and a second part coupled to the first part and being movable relative to the first part in a first direction, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the surface of the plug-in card. In this way, when the second part and the first part have a larger overlap in the first direction, the heat sink has a smaller first height and when the second part and the first part have a smaller overlap in the first direction, the heat sink has a greater second height.

  • Patent number: 10283028
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an organic electroluminescent display panel, an aging testing device and method, and a display device. A signal generator can simultaneously drive a plurality of parallel organic electroluminescent display panels to ensure the high efficiency of the aging test. In addition, during the aging test, the electrical coupling between the normal organic electroluminescent display panel and the signal generator can be maintained, and the electric coupling between the abnormal organic electroluminescent display panel and the signal generator can be disconnected. Thus, it is possible to prevent the abnormal organic electroluminescent display panel from affecting other normal organic electroluminescent display panels in parallel therewith, under the premise of ensuring the high efficiency of the aging test.
