Definitions
- the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- a fan fails, it must either be repaired or replaced, which requires a service outlay, quite apart from the fact that the installation of one or more fans entails considerable costs.
- the fans provided in the computer require additional space within the housing, which causes an overall larger space requirement for the personal computer.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying measures for cooling a personal computer and in particular of its heat-critical components such as the microprocessor module, the drives, the power supply and expansion modules, so that certain boundary conditions are met, namely the feasibility of the cooling measures in any PC Housings, especially in flat desktops, minimizing the noise level, maximizing the reliability and sufficient cooling capacity for high-performance microprocessors up to about 50 watts.
- a combination feature according to the invention has a passive cooling through heat conduction, convection and chimney effects.
- the invention consists in a combination of features that determines the system design in various points.
- microprocessor module at a defined position on the system module, preferably at the edge of this module, specified in combination feature a) is not trivial and cannot be compared with solutions from amplifier or power supply technology, since the processor has more than a few hundred high-frequency signals is connected and operated.
- cooling effect is optimized under the boundary conditions of a possible low desktop case, a minimal noise development as well as a maximum lifespan and reliability of the personal computer.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic top view of the interior of a personal computer cooled in accordance with the invention
- FIG. 2 is a schematic, not to scale side view of that part of the interior of the part shown in FIG. 1 Com- 4 puters, which are responsible for cooling the expansion modules, and
- FIG. 3 shows a corresponding side view of that part of the interior of this computer which is responsible for cooling the drives and the power supply module.
- FIG. 1 shows a computer on a housing base 13 (visible in FIGS. 2 and 3) arranged system assembly (motherboard) 1, a microprocessor module 2 and a plug-in card-receiving board (platter) 3, into the expansion modules designed as plug-in cards 4, e.g. a graphics adapter and a sound card are inserted.
- the microprocessor module 2 connected to the system assembly 1 via a few hundreds of signals is attached to a defined point on this system assembly 1, namely at the edge, in order to establish a direct heat-conducting connection from the microprocessor module 2 to a heat sink 5.
- the heat sink 5 is provided with a multiplicity of cooling fins 6 projecting outwards or corresponding surfaces optimized for heat emission.
- the heat sink 5 can form an outer wall of the housing or lie under a cover 7 covering the computer.
- a power supply module 8, a hard disk drive 9 and a floppy disk drive 10 and CD-ROM drives 11 and 12 are also arranged in the housing of the computer.
- the housing base 13 has perforations.
- a housing cover 14 is arranged in the form of an inclined plane at an angle of approximately 10 ° to the horizontal.
- the slots of the expansion modules 4 in the plug-in card mounting board 3 are arranged at an angle, so that the expansion modules 4 designed as plug-in cards run on inclined planes. Due to the inclined position of the expansion modules 4, an arrow in FIG. 2 shown air flow generated, which starts from the perforated housing base 13, rises between the expansion modules 4 and above the system module 1 and leaves the device at the suitably arranged openings 15 of the housing wall 16 or the cover 7.
- the inclined planes in which the expansion modules 4 lie run parallel to one another or at least approximately parallel to the housing cover 14, so that the air flow between these elements is conducted to the device openings 15 largely without vortexes.
- FIG. 3 shows, the hard disk drive 9 and the CD-ROM drive 12 in the total air flow and the CD-ROM drive 11 and the floppy disk drive 10 partly in the total air flow and also in each case arranged in a side-coming supply air channel, so that each of the drives 9 to
- the hard disk drive 9 is preferably arranged vertically and can be encapsulated to achieve better sound insulation.
- the cooling of the power supply module 8 takes place by arranging the power components on a cooling body 18 provided with laterally outwardly projecting cooling fins 17 and by the air flow which is generated by the perforation of the housing base 13 and the inclined position of the housing cover 14 and the device is attached to the appropriately attached Opening 6 openings 15 leaves.
- the heat sink 18, like the heat sink 5, either forms a lateral outer wall of the housing or is located under the cover 7, wherein they are each ventilated via channels and outlet openings.
