Technical Field

The present invention relates to a computer device, and more particularly to a computer device with a wind scooper.

Background

Generally, a computer mainly comprises a housing, a power supply, a motherboard, a central processing unit, a display card and an expansion card. The power supply and the motherboard are arranged in the shell, and the central processing unit, the display card and the expansion card are arranged on the motherboard. When the computer is running, the CPU is responsible for data operation and generates a lot of heat. Therefore, a computer manufacturer typically installs a fan to dissipate heat from the cpu. When the fan is operated, the external air flow is guided to flow through the central processing unit in the shell, and then the heat generated by the central processing unit is discharged to the outside of the shell.

Since the graphics processor of the present day display card has a more and more powerful operation capability, the heat generated by the graphics processor increases, so that the waste heat discharged from the display card to the interior of the housing increases the temperature of the interior of the housing greatly when the display card is operated. However, when the air with a relatively high temperature inside the casing is sucked by the cooling fan of the cpu, the cooling effect of the cpu will be affected, which is particularly significant in the compact computer design. Therefore, how to improve the heat dissipation effect of the cpu is one of the problems to be solved by the researchers.

In addition, the display card assembly 300 has a bottom surface 330 at least including a circuit board, wherein a first side surface of the bottom surface 330 faces the first air inlet 211 of the central processing unit 200, and a second side surface provided with a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) faces the right side plate 142. The card assembly 300 may further have a second fan 340, where the second fan 340 is used for guiding the heat dissipation airflow to flow in from the second air inlet 310, and then flow out from the second air outlet 320 after passing through an image processor (GPU) disposed on the second side of the bottom 330.

The first air outlet 212 of the central processing assembly 200 is adjacent to the top plate 141 and communicates with the vents 1411 located in the top plate 141.

In the embodiment, the display card assembly 300 completely covers the first air inlet 211 of the central processing assembly 200, but is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the display card assembly may also cover the first air inlet portion of the central processing assembly.

As shown in fig. 3 to 5, the wind scooper 400 has two wind inlets 410 and 420 and a wind outlet 430 that are connected. At least a portion of the air guide cover 400 is stopped between the display card assembly 300 and the first air inlet 211 of the cpu 220, so as to prevent waste heat generated by the display card assembly 300 from being sucked into the cpu 200 by the first fan 230 through the first air inlet 211. The two air inlets 410 and 420 of the air guiding cover 400 are respectively adjacent to the bottom plate 110 and the left side plate 143 and respectively communicated with the air vents 111 positioned on the bottom plate 110 and the air vents 1431 positioned on the left side plate 143. The air guiding outlet 430 is adjacent to and communicates with the first air inlet 211 of the central processing unit 200.

In the present embodiment, the air inlets 410 and 420 of the air guiding cover 400 and the second air inlet 310 of the display card assembly 300 are adjacent to the right side plate 142 of the casing 100, but not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the air inlet of the air guiding cover and the second air inlet of the display card assembly may be adjacent to other different sides of the casing.

In this embodiment, the air guide cover 400 is made of a material with low thermal conductivity, such as plastic, polymer or iron, so as to improve the heat insulation capability of the air guide cover 400.

In this embodiment, the computer device 10 may further include a power supply 600, and the power supply 600 may be disposed near the front board 120 and the top board 141, or near the bottom board 110 and the back board 130.

In the present embodiment, the number of the air inlets 410 and 420 is two, but not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the number of air guiding inlets may be single, three or four.

According to the computer device of the embodiment, the air guide cover is arranged, so that the air guide cover is stopped between the bottom surface of the display card assembly and the first air inlet of the central processing assembly, and waste heat generated by the display card assembly can be prevented from being sucked into the central processing assembly.

In addition, the air inlet of the air guide cover and the second air inlet of the display card assembly are adjacent to different sides of the casing, such as the bottom plate and the right side plate, so that the heat dissipation air flow flowing through the central processing assembly and the heat dissipation air flow flowing through the display card assembly are independent and are not influenced, and the central processing assembly and the display card assembly can dissipate heat through external relatively cold heat dissipation air flows.

In addition, the two air inlets are respectively adjacent to and communicated with the air vents positioned on the bottom plate and the air vents positioned on the left side plate, so that the outside cold air can be led into the first air inlet of the central processing assembly in multiple ways. Therefore, the air inflow of the first air inlet of the central processing assembly can be increased, so that the running temperature of the central processing assembly can be reduced through more heat dissipation air flows.
