Embodiment
See also Fig. 3, Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, Fig. 3 is the schematic appearance of the present invention's one electronic installation 50, and Fig. 4 is the inner member synoptic diagram of electronic installation 50 of the present invention, and Fig. 5 is the function block schematic diagram of electronic installation 50 of the present invention.Electronic installation 50 can be a mobile computer, electronic installation 50 comprises a housing 52, be used for coating inner member, and the bottom side of housing 52 is provided with an air intake vent 54, be used for importing outside air to housing 52, the side of housing 52 then is provided with an air outlet 56, is used for discharging hot-air to housing 52.Mobile computer 10 comprises a caution interface 58 in addition, be used for presenting the caution message, caution interface 58 comprises a display module 60, be used for the relevant information of display electronics assemblies 50 operation, to utilize the image display mode to present the caution message, and a loudspeaker 62, be used for output sound signal, present the caution message to utilize the sound playing mode.Electronic installation 50 comprises a sensor 64 in addition; be installed on a side of air outlet 56; be used for sensing air port 56 by the state of object blocks; sensor 64 can be an optical sensor; or be an infrared ray sensor etc.; one translucent plastic 66; be installed on the outside of sensor 64; be used for protecting sensor 64; and do not use general plastics to avoid having influence on the accuracy of sensor 64; and a logical block 68, be coupled in caution interface 58 and sensor 64, be used for operation according to the sensing result control electronic installation 50 of sensor 64.As shown in Figure 4, electronic installation 50 comprises a radiating module 70 in addition, it comprises a fan 72, be installed on the top of air intake vent 54, an and radiating groove (heat sink) 74, be installed between the air outlet 56 of fan 72 and housing 52, radiating groove 74 is provided with a plurality of radiating fins 76, in order to increase the surface area of heat radiation.The fan 72 of radiating module 70 can suck extraneous air via air intake vent 54, and institute's inhaled air is drained into a plurality of radiating fins 76 of radiating groove 7, discharge by air outlet 56 more at last, discharge outside housing 52 by the mode of thermal convection with the heat that electronic installation 50 inner members are produced.
See also Fig. 6, Fig. 6 is the synoptic diagram that an object 78 is barred from air outlet 56 the place aheads of electronic installation 50.When position that object 78 is put during very close to the air outlet 56 of electronic installation 50, object 78 can hinder the hot blast that radiating module 70 is as shown in Figure 4 discharged via air outlet 56, and the heat that produced of electronic installation 50 inner members just is difficult for shedding thus.See also Fig. 7, whether Fig. 7 stops that according to object sensing 78 result of air outlet 56 controls the process flow diagram that electronic installation 50 is carried out corresponding function for electronic installation 50 of the present invention, and method of the present invention comprises the following steps:
Step 100: beginning.
Step 102: whether the sensor 64 of electronic installation 50 detects air port 56 is stopped by object 78, when by not sensing the state that air outlet 56 is stopped by object 78, change into when sensing the state that air outlet 56 stopped by object 78, output one controls signal to logical block 68.
Step 104: when object 78 stops air outlet 56, logical block 68 will be when receiving the control signal that sensor 64 transmits, and control caution interface 58 presents the caution message, has stopped air outlet 56 to remind user's object 78.
Step 106: finish.
When not having object 78 to be barred from the place ahead of air outlet 56 of electronic installation 50, sensor 64 just can't sense the place ahead object, and when object 78 is barred from the place ahead of air outlet 56 of electronic installation 50, the light that sensor 64 sent can be stopped by object 78 and reflect, so sensor 64 can sense the light with the identical wavelength of being launched of light, sensor 64 just can be exported this and control signal to logical block 68 at this moment, the distance that the adjustment of the sensitivity of this outer sensor 64 can sense object 78 and sensor 64 by setting sensor 64 is during less than a specific range, sensor 64 just can be exported this and control signal to logical block 68, that is to say object 78 apart from air outlet 56 in the scope of this specific range, logical block 68 sides can control caution interface 58 and present information warning, have stopped air outlet 56 to remind user's object 78; Maybe can select to have the different effectively sensors 64 of detection-sensitive distance, in the scope of distance air outlet 56 how many specific ranges, logical block 68 sides can control caution interface 58 and present the caution message with decision object 78.
Logical block 68 is after receiving the control signal that sensor 64 transmits, can present the caution message by control caution interface 58, to remind user's object 78 to stop air outlet 56, present the mode of warning message as for control caution interface 58, can present the caution message with the image display mode by control display module 60, for example can jump out window warning user on display module 60 has object 78 to stop air outlet 56 now, to remind the user object 78 is removed by the place ahead of air outlet 56; Or present the caution message in the sound playing mode by control loudspeaker 62, for example loudspeaker 62 can send continuous buzzer, to remind the user object 78 is removed by the place ahead of air outlet 56.
Be compared to existing electronic installation, electronic installation of the present invention can be in air outlet by object blocks, and when influencing radiating module and discharging hot-air via air outlet, remind the user that object is removed by the place ahead of air outlet, the heat that produced of electronic installation inner member just can shed smoothly thus, and keep the stability of electronic installation running, and can prolong the serviceable life of electronic installation inner member.
The above only is preferred embodiment of the present invention, and all equalizations of doing according to claim of the present invention change and modify, and all should belong to the covering scope of patent of the present invention.
