Description

Active component housing

The present invention is to provide a housing for an active component, and more particularly to an active component having an active source, such as a fan or a water-cooling heat sink, for shock and vibration isolation.

The use of electronic information products (such as computers) is becoming more and more popular. Due to the rapid development of electronic information industry technology, the speed of computing and the increase of access capacity have led to the high temperature accompanying the high-speed operation of components in electronic information products. . Take the computer mainframe as an example. The internal central processing unit (CPU) generates a large amount of heat. In addition, when the central processing unit heat is gradually increased, the performance will be reduced, and even the computer will be forced to crash. May cause damage.

Fans have traditionally been used to dissipate the heat generated by the operation of electronic components within electronic information products. Conventional fans include a housing and a fan (active source) that is rotatably disposed in the housing. in. The housing of the fan is integrally formed, and the housing can be directly locked to the heat dissipation fin or the casing of the product by a fixing hole through which the screw (fixing member) passes. However, the fan is an active component. When the fan is started, the vibration generated by the fan under high-speed rotation is transmitted to the heat dissipation fin or the casing, so that the heat dissipation fin or the casing resonates, thereby generating unnecessary noise. It also loosens the fixing of the locking fan and reduces the stability of the fan.

Conventional water-cooling heat sinks are also often used to dissipate internal electronics of electronic information products. The water-cooling heat sink is also an active component during the operation of the component, and there are many problems as described above during operation.

In summary, the creator feels that the above defects can be improved, and he has devoted himself to research and cooperates with the application of academics, and finally proposes a design that is reasonable in design and effective in improving the above defects.
