Integrated Cooling Solution For Spinning Sensors - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240271973 titled 'Integrated Cooling Solution For Spinning Sensors
The technology described in this patent application is a system for cooling sensor components. The system includes a sensor with a housing, a motor, a main vent, and a side vent. Internal sensor components are housed within the sensor housing. The motor is designed to rotate the sensor housing around an axis. As the sensor housing rotates, air is drawn into the interior of the housing through the main vent and exhausted out through the side vent.
- Sensor system for cooling sensor components
