Abstract: A head-mounted device includes a housing configured to be worn on a head of a user. The housing includes an inlet port and an outlet port. An air circulation device is mounted to the housing and configured to produce a flow of air through an air flow path in the housing that extends from the inlet port to the outlet port. A display assembly is mounted to the housing and has a surface in the air flow path of the housing. An air deflector mounted to the surface of the display assembly and configured to reduce a turbulence of the flow of air through the air flow path.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided that includes a heatsink, an electrical circuit mounted on the heatsink, and a chassis. A plurality of heat-insulating connectors mounting the heatsink to the chassis at a first plurality of mount points, and a plurality of heat-conducting connectors mounting the heatsink to the chassis at a second plurality of mount points. The first plurality of mount points are located closer to the electrical circuit mounted on the heatsink than the second plurality of mount points.

Abstract: A head-mountable device can include a fan that effectively manages heat while also mitigating the intrusion of particles and other debris. Fans can include a protrusion that creates a tortuous pathway to direct incoming particles away from sensitive regions. Fans can include openings to allow particles to exit the fan enclosure and avoid interaction with the impeller. Fans can include a variable spacing between the impeller and the base plate to avoid collection of particles. Fans can include an adhesive pad that collects and retains particles at a location that does not interfere with rotation of the impeller.
