Rotatable cold plate assembly for cooling pluggable modules
摘要
說明書
The pivoting support 621 rotates between an engaged position and a disengaged position. When in the engaged position, the cold plate 630 is in contact with a thermal interface 723 in the pluggable module 700 (assuming one is installed in the bay 600), and when in the disengaged position the cold plate 630 is not in contact with the thermal interface. More precisely, when the pivoting support is in the engaged position, then the cold plate 630 is located such that it would be in contact with a thermal interface 723 of the pluggable module 700 if the module 700 were installed in the bay 600. Similarly, when the pivoting support is in the disengaged position, then the cold plate 630 is located such that it would not be in contact with a thermal interface 723 of the pluggable module 700 if the module 700 were installed in the bay 600. The disengaged position may also provide sufficient clearance between the cold plate 630 and the pluggable module 700 that the cold plate 630 does not interfere with the pluggable module 700 being inserted or removed. The thermal interface 723 may be disposed on the top surface of a device to be cooled.
