Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
High-density environments face challenges with thermal management, mechanical positioning, and electrical concerns due to tightly packed devices, particularly with electromagnetic interference (EMI) from devices emitting electromagnetic radiation, which affects device operation and communication.
Innovation Solution
A data processing device with an EMI-isolated internal volume and an EMR-suppressing vent, equipped with a wireless system that receives network data units from EMI-emitting devices and transmits them through a path that traverses the vent, allowing communication while minimizing EMI impact on the ambient environment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If devices are tightly packed in high-density environments, then space utilization is improved, but electromagnetic interference between devices increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the environment into two distinct segments: an EMI-suppressed internal volume containing EMI-emitting devices, and an external ambient environment. The EMR-suppressing vent acts as the boundary between these segments, allowing thermal exchange while maintaining EMI isolation. This segmentation enables high device density within the internal volume without propagating EMI to surrounding devices.
Solution Approach 2:
The EMR-suppressing vent serves as an intermediary element between the EMI-emitting devices inside the internal volume and the external environment. It selectively transmits thermal energy while blocking electromagnetic radiation, thus mediating the interaction between the two environments and resolving the contradiction between heat dissipation requirements and EMI suppression.
2Object-generated harmful factors
If an EMR-suppressing vent is used to isolate EMI, then electromagnetic interference is reduced, but wireless communication capability is degraded
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the frequency parameter of wireless communication from the EMI-suppressed band to an EMI-free band. The wireless system operates on frequencies that are not suppressed by the EMR vent, allowing communication signals to pass through the vent while EMI-emitting devices operate on suppressed frequencies. This parameter separation resolves the contradiction between EMI suppression and wireless communication reliability.

AI summary
A data processing device includes an internal volume that is electromagnetic interference (EMI) isolated. The data processing device further includes an electromagnetic radiation (EMR) suppressing vent that defines one wall of the internal volume. The data processing device further includes a wireless system. The wireless system includes a first portion that is disposed in the internal volume. The first portion receives network data units from EMI emitting devices disposed in the internal volume and a second portion of the wireless system. The second portion is disposed outside of the internal volume and obtains the network data units from the first portion using a wireless connection that utilizes a transmission path that traverses through the EMR suppressing vent.
