Abstract:
There is disclosed an enclosure and cooling system for electronic equipment that provides forced-air cooling of multiple compartmentalized electronics assemblies while simultaneously isolating the electronics assemblies from the ambient environment, keeping the electronics assemblies free from contamination due to harmful dust, dirt, water, corrosives, and other airborne foreign matter. Embodiments include an air-conduction cooled environmentally-sealed electronics enclosure having at least first and second environmentally-sealed electronics compartments, each containing a respective electronic assembly. A common-air cooling channel containing a fin core is disposed between the first and the second electronics compartments, such that ambient air drawn from an air intake, through the common channel, and out an air exhaust removes heat generated by the electronic assemblies within the sealed compartments to an exterior of the enclosure. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 8):
A system for simultaneously air-conduction cooling and environmentally-isolating multiple electronics assemblies, comprising:\n a heat-exchanger assembly comprising a first thermally-conductive sheet and a second thermally-conductive sheet, the first and the second thermally-conductive sheets defining an environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel therebetween, wherein the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel houses a fin core, the fin core formed from a plurality of thermally-conductive fins in contact with the first and the second thermally-conductive sheets; an enclosure enclosing the heat-exchanger assembly; an ambient air intake formed through the enclosure at a first end of the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel; an air filter disposed adjacent to the ambient air intake; an air exhaust formed through the enclosure at a second end of the common air-cooling channel; and an air mover disposed at the air exhaust, wherein:\n the first thermally-conductive sheet and the enclosure combine to define a first environmentally-sealed electronics compartment containing a first electronic assembly; \n the second thermally-conductive sheet and the enclosure combine to define a second environmentally-sealed electronics compartment containing a second electronic assembly; and \n the air mover generates a filtered airflow into the air intake, through the air filter, through the environmentally-isolated common air-cooling channel, and out the air exhaust, the filtered airflow fluidly isolated from the first and the second electronic assemblies.
