Abstract

Example implementations relate to a host electronic device and a method of establishing a thermal contact with a removable electronic device by a cooling component of the host electronic device. The host electronic device includes a housing, the cooling component, and a plurality of flexible arms. The cooling component is movably coupled to the housing. The plurality of flexible arms extend towards an internal cavity of the housing to hold the cooling component in a first position (retracted position). Further, the plurality of flexible arms are displaceable from the internal cavity by a movement of the removable electronic device into the host electronic device, to allow the cooling component to drop down to a second position (extended position) for establishing the thermal contact with a heat generating component of the removable electronic device.
