Patent attributes
A device adapted to optimize air duct flow in an electronic system including a printed circuit board configured to support one or more electronic components having various heights. The device includes an air duct including a rigid cross-sectional member, the air duct being adapted to facilitate air flow from an inlet port to an outlet port. Further, the rigid cross-sectional member includes an opening having an interior perimeter, the interior perimeter of the opening being attached to a flexible sheet by a pressure sensitive adhesive. The rigid cross-sectional member attached to the flexible sheet is adapted to compress one or more electronic components to the printed circuit board when the rigid cross-sectional member is mounted on the printed circuit board, and is configured to form an airtight enclosure to optimize air duct flow.
