Abstract

A diffusive cooling device includes a plate body, on which a cavity recessed outwardly is formed and an opening is arranged; a web plate jointed at the upper side of the plate body correspondingly; a plurality of passing openings arranged on the web plate to act as air passages; a scroll fan arranged between the plate body and the web plate in corresponding to the opening; a shell body connected to the bottom of the plate body and jointed to the web plate correspondingly to enclose and prop up the plate body therein; and, an air inlet arranged at the front side of the shell body, through which an ambient air is flowed into the shell body by the extracting and thrusting forces of the fan. During operation, airflow is generated along the cavity and extended to corresponding area of web plate to diffusively pass through the plural passing openings to achieve a cooling objective.

Claims (28)

1. A diffusive cooling device, comprising:

a plate body, on which a cavity recessed outwardly is formed, at a bottom of which an opening is arranged through the plate body;

a web plate, which is jointed to the plate body, and on a plate face of which a plurality of passing openings are arranged to act as air passages;

a scroll fan, which is arranged between the plate body and the web plate in corresponding to the openings of the plate body and the web plate for extracting an airflow from the openings;

a shell body, which is connected to the plate body and the web plate, and which is jointed to the web plate correspondingly to enclose the plate body therein; and

a supporting plate, which is arranged in the shell body for supporting the shell body.

2. The diffusive cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein an air inlet is arranged at a front side of the shell body, through which ambient air is flowed into the shell body.

3. The diffusive cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein two sides of the shell body are respectively arranged an air inlet, through which ambient air is flowed into the shell body.

4. The diffusive cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein an accommodating space is formed between the supporting plate and a bottom of the shell body to act as air passages.

5. The diffusive cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of passing holes are arranged on the supporting plate in corresponding to the opening of the plate body to act as air passages.

6. The diffusive cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein the cavity is configured as a bowl shape.

7. The diffusive cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein a through opening is arranged on the web plate in corresponding to the opening of the plate body.

8. The diffusive cooling device according to claim 1 , wherein the passing opening is configured as a circular hole.

9. A diffusive cooling device, comprising:

a plate body, on which a cavity recessed outwardly is formed, at a bottom of which an opening is arranged through the plate body;

a web plate, which is jointed to the plate body, and on a plate face of which a plurality of passing openings are arranged to act as air passages;

a scroll fan, which is arranged between the plate body and the web plate in corresponding to the openings of the plate body and the web plate for extracting an airflow from the openings; and

a through opening, which is arranged on the web plate in corresponding to the opening of the plate body, wherein the through opening is further connected a top lid for closing the through opening.

10. A diffusive cooling device, comprising:

a plate body, on which a cavity recessed outwardly is formed, at a bottom of which an opening is arranged through the plate body;

a web plate, which is jointed to the plate body, and on a plate face of which a plurality of passing openings are arranged to act as air passages; and

a scroll fan, which is arranged between the plate body and the web plate in corresponding to the openings of the plate body and the web plate for extracting an airflow from the openings;

wherein the passing openings are respectively configured as a rectangular shape and interspaced to each other.

11. A diffusive cooling device, comprising:

a plate body, on which a cavity recessed outwardly is formed, at a bottom of which an opening is arranged through the plate body;

a web plate, which is jointed to the plate body, and on a plate face of which a plurality of passing openings are arranged to act as air passages;

a scroll fan, which is arranged between the plate body and the web plate in corresponding to the openings of the plate body and the web plate for extracting an airflow from the openings; and

a fixing plate, which is arranged at a top side of the fan for fixing the fan to a position.
