COMPUTER HOUSING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240053804 titled 'COMPUTER HOUSING

Simplified Explanation

- Desktop computing system with central core surrounded by housing - Housing has first and second openings for airflow as heat transfer medium - Second opening has lip to transfer heat to housing - Heat from internal components transferred to airflow and then to housing

Potential Applications

- Cooling systems for desktop computers - Heat transfer mechanisms for electronic devices

Problems Solved

- Overheating of internal components in desktop computers - Inefficient cooling systems

Benefits

- Improved cooling efficiency - Increased lifespan of internal components - Enhanced performance of desktop computing systems

Original Abstract Submitted

a desktop computing system having at least a central core surrounded by housing having a shape that defines a volume in which the central core resides is described. the housing includes a first opening and a second opening axially displaced from the first opening. the first opening having a size and shape in accordance with an amount of airflow used as a heat transfer medium for cooling internal components, the second opening defined by a lip that engages a portion of the airflow in such a way that at least some of the heat transferred to the air flow from the internal components is passed to the housing.
