RUGGEDIZED COMPUTER ASSEMBLY HAVING INTERNAL FAN
First Claim
1. A computer assembly, comprising:
- (a) a processor integrated circuit;
(b) a hard disk drive electrically connected to said processor integrated circuit;
(c) a power supply assembly, powering said processor integrated circuit and hard disk drive;
(d) a liquid-tight case, entirely containing and physically isolating and protecting said processor integrated circuit, hard disk drive and power supply assembly, said liquid-tight case defining fluid channels;
(e) electrical connectors to permit connection of said computer to outside devices; and
(f) a fan in said liquid-tight case, adapted to drive fluid through said fluid channel, thereby facilitating the movement of heat through said computer assembly.
