| 20090147464 | Ventilation Assembly for Computer Hardware Systems - An assembly for dissipating heat generated by electronic components which include a ventilating panel having a plurality of vent holes arranged thereon. More specifically, the perforation pattern of vent holes is staggered to provide adjacent larger and smaller vent holes in at least two rows of vent holes. A second row of vent holes is staggered with respect to the first row of vent holes such that the larger vent holes are aligned with smaller vent holes, preferably in a ratio of two smaller vent holes per one larger vent hole. Such a perforation arrangement of vent holes may be provided on a blindswap cassette for securing and aligning computer cards for mounting in a housing, such as a sled for use in computer systems. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20100254089 | Cooling System for Electronic Components - Embodiments of the present invention provide for non interruptive fluid cooling of an electronic enclosure. One or more electronic component packages may be removable from a circuit card having a fluid flow system. When installed, the electronic component packages are coincident to and in a thermal relationship with the fluid flow system. If a particular electronic component package becomes non-functional, it may be removed from the electronic enclosure without affecting either the fluid flow system or other neighboring electronic component packages. | 10-07-2010 |
