    Abstract: A fluid cooling system includes a boiling plate, a compressor, and a condenser. The boiling plate contacts a heat-generating electronic component. The boiling plate receives a liquid such that the liquid absorbs heat from the electronic component and evaporates into a vapor. The compressor is fluidly connected the boiling plate and receives the vapor of the boiling plate. The compressor increases the pressure of the vapor such that the temperature of the vapor increases, and such that a saturation temperature of the vapor increases. The condenser is fluidly connected to the compressor and the boiling plate. The condenser receives the vapor from the compressor and removes heat from the vapor such that the vapor condenses back into the liquid. The boiling plate receives the liquid from the condenser. The system can include a pump that circulates the liquid and the vapor between the boiling plate, the compressor, and the condenser.

    Abstract: A cable clip assembly for a computing device includes a primary clip with a primary surface between first and second primary ends. The first side extends in a first transverse direction from the first primary end, and the second side extends in the first transverse direction from the second primary end. Cable-receiving holes are arranged longitudinally between the first and second sides. A secondary clip has a secondary surface and is attached to the primary clip via the first and second sides. The secondary clip is movable relative to the primary clip between a cable installation position and a secured cable position, and is removably attached at one or more of the first and second sides. A compressible interface is attached to the primary surface, includes a flexible material that compresses when subjected to an installation force, and creates an airflow barrier in an installed position within the computing device.

    Abstract: An expansion bay for a computer device for easy insertion and extension of an expansion component is disclosed. The expansion bay has two facing side walls, a bottom panel joining the facing side walls, and a closed end. A front cross member joins the side walls to define a front open end. A pair of springs are located the closed end that force the expansion component away from the closed end. A pair of rotating levers are mounted on the front cross member near each of the side walls. Each of the rotating levers has a pin that engages a groove on the expansion component that is inserted through the open front end. The levers are rotated via the pins engaging the grooves when the expansion component is moved into and out of open front end.

    Abstract: A liquid cooling system includes a liquid coolant conduit in proximity to heat-generating electrical components within an enclosed space. The conduit allows circulation of a liquid coolant to extract heat from the heat-generating components. The heat-generating components includes at least one first heat-generating electrical component and at least one second heat-generating electrical component. The first heat-generating component produces greater heat than the second heat-generating component. The enclosed space includes an inlet and an outlet. The conduit includes a nozzle fluidly connected to the inlet. The nozzle is located within the enclosed space. The nozzle forms first and second aperture sets. The first aperture set directs the liquid coolant to the first heat-generating component. The second aperture set directs the liquid coolant to the second heat-generating component. The nozzle allows liquid coolant to pass the first heat-generating component at a faster rate than the second heat-generating component.

    Abstract: A computer chassis includes walls defining an airspace containing heat-generating components (e.g., storage drives). The airspace is divided into first and second regions, such as by a printed circuit board supporting the heat-generating components within the first region. An air input feeds both the first region and second region. Input air going through the first region first passes by a forward set of heat-generating components before continuing to a rearward set of heat-generating components to extract heat therefrom. Input air going through the second region bypasses the forward set of heat-generating components before being directed out through an air opening partway down the length of the chassis, after which this air passes by a rearward set of heat-generating components to extract heat.
