Abstract
Examples described herein include socket covers with air impeding structures. In some examples, a processing unit socket cover comprises a base, an air impeding structure, and an engagement latch. The base may have a surface facing away from the socket and a perimeter defined by the surface. The air impeding structure may protrude from the surface and extend from a first side of the perimeter to a second side of the perimeter, diving the surface. The engagement latch may be connected to the air impeding structure to attach to the socket.
Claims9
A processing unit socket cover comprising:
- a base with a surface facing away from a socket, and a perimeter defined by the surface;
- an air impeding structure protruding from the surface;
- wherein the air impeding structure extends from a first side of the perimeter to a second side of the perimeter and divides the surface;
- wherein the air impeding structure comprises a first wall that diagonally bisects the surface;
- and
- an engagement latch connected to the air impeding structure to attach to the socket.
A processing unit socket cover comprising:
- a rectangular base with a surface;
- an air impeding structure protruding from the surface;
- wherein the air impending structure extends across the surface;
- wherein the air impeding structure comprises a wall that diagonally bisects the surface;
- and
- an annular snap-on lock operatively connected to the air impeding structure to attach to a socket.
A processing unit socket cover comprising:
- a base with a surface and a perimeter defined by the surface;
- a first air impeding structure protruding from the surface, wherein the first air impeding structure extends from a first side of the perimeter to a second side of the perimeter and bisects the surface;
- a second air impeding structure attached to the first air impeding structure;
- and
- a plurality of connection points, wherein at least one connection point out of the plurality of connection point comprises a snap-on lock to attach to a socket.
