Description

Electronic equipment

The present invention relates to an electronic device, and more particularly to an air volume adjusting device for an electronic device.

Since the functions of electronic devices such as desktop computers and servers are becoming more and more powerful, and the volume tends to be thinner and lighter in design, the volume of the heat dissipation module is also reduced under limited space constraints, thereby affecting heat dissipation. The efficiency of the system causes the internal system to be down due to poor heat dissipation. Therefore, there are various heat dissipation methods on the market to solve the above problems, such as increasing the fan speed of the heat dissipation module, using a thin and large fan or using a water cooling system and a heat pipe.

In order to increase the fan speed, although the fan increases the rotational speed to increase the air intake amount as the system temperature rises, the number of air inlet holes and the air inlet area formed by the air inlet hole of the electronic device housing are fixed. Therefore, the air intake amount cannot be effectively increased, and the fan is likely to generate noise and vibration at a high speed operation, which adversely affects the system.

2. For a fan with a small thickness and a large area, the housing of the electronic device needs to be equipped with a large air inlet hole for the fan, so that the overall appearance of the electronic device is affected, and the dust is easily accumulated through the air inlet hole. Inside the housing.

3. For the way of using water cooling system and heat pipe, both of them are currently a relatively high cost heat dissipation mode, which will increase the manufacturing cost of electronic equipment.

The air volume adjusting device 20 further includes a control component 5 electrically connected to the motor 32 of the actuating mechanism 3, and a temperature detecting component 6. Keyboard controller (KBC) 7, and a temperature control circuit 8 electrically connected between the temperature detecting element 6, the keyboard controller 7 and the control element 5. The temperature detecting component 6 is configured to detect the temperature of a specific part (such as a specific location or a specific electronic component) in the accommodating space 11, in this embodiment, to detect a central processing unit (CPU) (not shown). The temperature is exemplified, and the control element 5 is a drive circuit for driving the motor 32 to operate. The temperature detecting component 6 correspondingly generates different temperature detecting values according to the temperature change generated by the central processing unit during operation, and the temperature detecting component 6 sequentially transmits the temperature detecting values to the temperature control circuit 8 in sequence. The temperature control circuit 8 will sequentially transmit different temperature detection values to the keyboard controller 7, and then the keyboard controller 7 will return the corresponding set value to the temperature control circuit 8, so that the temperature control circuit 8 can respond according to the corresponding The set value generates a corresponding voltage, and the corresponding voltage is simultaneously transmitted to a heat dissipation fan 9 and the control element 5, whereby the heat dissipation fan 9 can generate different rotation speeds according to the temperature of the central processing unit for central processing.

The latching portion 312 of the lever 31 is moved. Since the pivoting portion 311 of the other link 31 is pivotally connected to the panel 2, the latching portion 312 is confined in the elongated slot 141, and the two links 31 are pivotally connected to each other. Together, the movement of the latching portion 312 by the rack 34 causes the two links 31 to push the panel 2 to move in the direction indicated by the arrow II to the first open position shown in FIG. 4, thereby the air inlet 12 When the temperature of the central processing unit rises, the amount of intake air in the accommodating space 11 can be simultaneously increased. Then, when the temperature detecting component 6 detects that the temperature of the central processing unit rises to, for example, 70 degrees, the keyboard controller 7 returns a corresponding set value to the temperature control circuit 8, so that the temperature control circuit 8 generates, for example, 4.5V. The voltage drives the rotational speed of the cooling fan 9 to be accelerated, and at the same time controls the control element 5 to actuate. The control element 5 generates a control command to cause the motor 32 to again drive the rack 34 to move the engaging portion 312 of the connecting rod 31 in the direction indicated by the arrow I. The two links 31 are caused to push the plate member 2 to move from the first open position to the second open position shown in FIG. 5 in the direction indicated by the arrow II, thereby increasing the area of the intake air.

As the speed of the cooling fan 9 increases, the air inlet area is gradually increased as the position of the panel 2 is opened, thereby effectively increasing the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling fan 9 to reduce the internal heat dissipation of the system. Fake feelings shape.

Therefore, the motor 32 drives the rack 34 toward The direction indicated by the arrow I moves to the left or to the right in the direction opposite to the arrow I, whereby the size of the air inlet 12 can be controlled to vary with the operating temperature of the central processing unit. In addition, for convenience of description, in the present embodiment, only the temperature detecting component 6 detects the temperature of the central processing unit, for example, three detection values of 50 degrees, 60 degrees, and 70 degrees, and the temperature control circuit 8 generates three. The corresponding voltage value is used as an example to illustrate. Of course, in actual application, the temperature detecting component 6 can also detect higher or lower temperature, and the detected value and the corresponding voltage value to be detected may be different according to requirements.
