A portable information handling system housing biases to the closed position by attracting a piece of ferromagnetic material disposed in a lid housing portion to a magnet in a speaker disposed in a main housing portion. A Hall sensor proximate the ferromagnetic material detects the speaker magnet in the closed position and communicates open or closed position detection through a flexible cable and hinge to an embedded controller in the main housing for execution of logic associated with open and closed positions, such as ACPI sleep and wake states.

A portable information handling system keyboard is tested for wear to determine reuse or recycling by subjecting the information handling system to visual inspection performed by a camera that includes an evaluation of key wear based in part on a keyboard language in a key lattice. The key lattice couples to a keyboard frame over a membrane having contact sensors and extends plural keyboard language members towards the membrane that identify by contact against the membrane the language of the plural keys in the keyboard lattice.

Information handling system (IHS) component immersion cooling systems and methods employ an apparatus having an IHS component immersion cooling flow passage housing disposed at (a) IHS component(s) of an IHS disposed in an immersion cooling tank. The IHS component immersion cooling flow passage housing has an immersion fluid inlet open to immersion fluid within tank and an immersion fluid outlet connected to a return line of an immersion fluid pump. The IHS component cooling apparatus flow passage housing may be a cold plate or a ducted heatsink disposed on, or about, the IHS component(s) of the IHS disposed in the immersion cooling tank. The immersion fluid pump may be the pump that also circulates the immersion fluid within the tank. The tank may include a manifold in fluid flow communication with the pump. This manifold may receive a plurality of return lines, each from an IHS component cooling apparatus.

A modular desktop computing system includes a display stand chassis having a display stand base, a display stand support member extending from the display stand base and including a display device mounting subsystem, and a display stand cover removeably coupled to the display stand support member to define a computing module housing between the display stand support member and the display stand cover. A display device is removeably mounted to the display device mounting subsystem. A computing module is located in the computing module housing. The computing module includes a computing module chassis removeably positioned in the computing module housing and housing: a processing system coupled to the display device, and a memory system coupled to the processing system. The memory system includes instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to provide for the display of images on the display device.

Configurable all-in-one modular desktop computing system

An expansion module system includes a board having a plurality of expansion modules connectors mounted to the board. A shared expansion module coupling feature is provided on the board and includes a coupling member. A respective expansion module is connected to each of the plurality of expansion module connectors, and the coupling member engages each of the respective expansion modules to secure each of the respective expansion modules in their respective expansion module connectors. The shared expansion module coupling feature may includes a standoff that is mounted to the board immediately adjacent a single hole defined by the board, and the coupling member may be provided by a single screw that engages each of the respective expansion modules and at least one of: the shared expansion module coupling feature and the portion of the board that defines the hole.

An information handling system includes a triangular chassis and a plurality of antennas that provide optimized coverage in all directions around the triangular chassis. An antenna may be operated from each vertex of the triangular shaped base chassis. Alternatively, an antenna may be operated from each of three main side surfaces of the triangular shaped base chassis. One or more of the antennas can be selected for communication based on the ability to communicate with external network components. Disclosed systems provide omnidirectional coverage around the triangular chassis while minimizing the effects of shadowing caused by abase chassis.

A forced convection system includes a chassis defining a chassis housing and including an outer surface opposite the chassis housing. A forced convection device channel is defined by the chassis adjacent the outer surface and opposite the chassis housing. A heat dissipation structure extends from the chassis adjacent the outer surface, opposite the chassis housing, and adjacent the forced convection device channel. A first heat producing device is located in the chassis housing and engages the chassis immediately opposite the heat dissipation structure to allow the chassis and the heat dissipation structure to conduct heat generated by the first heat producing device. A forced convection device is located in the forced convection device channel, and produces a forced convective airflow past the heat dissipation structure to dissipate the heat generated by the first heat producing device and conducted by the chassis and the heat dissipation structure.

A rack system is disclosed. The racks and the computer systems included within the racks have a shallow configuration. The racks are placed next to one another in a back-to-back configuration in which the backs of each of the racks are adjacent to one another. All of the user-accessible components of the computers system face toward the front of each rack. The heated air from each of the computer systems is expelled in the space between each of the racks. The space between each of the racks is relatively narrow, as there are no user-accessible components between the racks. The racks are coupled to one another with a bar that may include at least some spring action to accommodate some movement of the racks toward or away from one another without the tipping of either rack.

An externally mounted component cooling system includes a chassis defining a chassis housing and including an outer surface that is located opposite the chassis from the chassis housing. An air inlet is defined by the chassis and extends through the chassis from the outer surface to the chassis housing. At least one external component mounting feature is included on the outer surface of the chassis adjacent the air inlet. An external component is coupled to the at least one external component mounting feature. A forced convection device is located in the chassis housing and is configured to generate an airflow through chassis housing. The generation of the airflow by the forced convection device draws air past the external component and through the air inlet to cool the external component.

A cooling system includes a chassis defining a housing and including a wall having an outer surface. A computing device is located in the housing. A heat transfer device located in the housing engages the computing device and the wall, providing for heat transfer from the computing device, through the heat transfer device, and through the wall to the outer surface to produce supplemental passive cooling of the computing device via the outer surface. A heat dissipation aperture is defined by the chassis, and a heat dissipation device located in the housing adjacent the heat dissipation aperture engages the heat transfer device, which provides for heat transfer from the heat transfer device to the heat dissipation device. A forced convection device located in the housing generates an airflow past the heat dissipation structure and through the heat dissipation aperture to enable primary active cooling of the computing device.
