20140096940 | Heat Spreader With Thermal Conductivity Inversely Proportional To Increasing Heat - A heat spreading apparatus has a body defining a void. A fluid positioned within the void distributes heat via a complete thermodynamic cycle. A disruption of the complete thermodynamic cycle is inversely proportional to the magnitude of dynamic body forces, thereby diminishing heat spreading activity by the heat spreading apparatus. | 04-10-2014 |
20140096939 | Heat Spreader with Thermal Conductivity Inversely Proportional to Increasing Heat - A heat spreading apparatus includes a body defining a void. A fluid is positioned within the void for distributing heat by vaporizing the fluid. The body defines a void with a heat accumulation surface geometry to disrupt the thermodynamic cycle of vaporizing the fluid and thereby diminish heat spreading activity by the heat spreading apparatus. | 04-10-2014 |
20120227940 | Toroidal Fluid Mover and Associated Heat Sink - An apparatus includes a toroidal fluid mover. A drive mechanism rotates the toroidal fluid mover, such that the toroidal fluid mover directs axially received fluid at a smaller radius in a radial direction towards a greater radius to produce an axial-to-radial fluid flow field. A heat sink is positioned within the axial-to-radial fluid flow field. The heat sink is thermally coupled with a heat generating source and is at least partially filled with a fluid. | 09-13-2012 |
20110254421 | Cooling Structure For Bulb Shaped Solid State Lamp - In one embodiment, an LED lamp has a generally bulb shape, such as a standard A19 shape. The section of the lamp between the LEDs' metal support platform and the screw-in base is a metal heat sink having the A19 form factor. The heat sink has metal fins that are asymmetrically arranged with respect to a center axis of the lamp such that, when the lamp's center axis is oriented vertically and the lamp is generating heat, the fins create an asymmetric air flow that moves through (across) a plane that is parallel to the center axis, wherein the air flow pattern is peripherally monoperiodic around the periphery of the lamp. Due to the asymmetric air flow pattern, the maximum air flow velocity is increased and asymmetric heat patterns result around the center axis, resulting in greater cooling of the heat sink. | 10-20-2011 |
