MacBook Pro may use a new ventilated chassis in the future

Apple is studying how to build a MacBook Pro, it can automatically lift, during intensive work when the components are running a high temperature, can provide greater ventilation. Apple has previously studied a flexible version of the MacBook Pro, which uses a seamless hinge on the chassis instead of the conventional two-stage clamshell design. One advantage of this is that the display screen can be opened without being connected to the base through a complicated mechanism.

Apple’s new patent application titled “Deployable Feet for Display Connection and Thermal Performance” focuses on multiple issues, but one of the issues is about the potential risk of the display when it is turned on. The solution given by Apple is to pad the bottom At the same time, it can solve another challenge of the notebook computer, which is to provide enough space for various components in the equipment shell to meet the heat dissipation and other requirements of electronic equipment.

Apple stated in the patent application that this design can not only increase the gap of the base part but also improve the efficiency of the internal volume of the bass part while maintaining a portable and stylish appearance. As early as the launch of the PowerBook 100, Apple installed a pair of rotatable footpads on the notebook. With a simple plastic structure, the user can twist the two to raise the PowerBook at the back and increase the typing angle.

This new patent application suggests doing something similar, but not the pair of feet in the back. On the contrary, the entire bottom base of the MacBook Pro can be a “deployable feature”, like a very large foot. This obviously solves the worry of the bottom of the display shell cracking on the desktop. It also means that such a MacBook Pro will have an inclined typing angle.

However, Apple seems to be most interested in how having such a structure actually changes what components the MacBook Pro can contain. Most of Apple’s application describes a base that can be raised on its own when needed, allowing components to run faster than normal, and to better dissipate heat for air circulation, which will allow the MacBook Pro to perform more intensive tasks than before.

However, the MacBook Pro can also decide for itself whether or not this additional ventilation is needed. Apple said that the temperature of the electronic device is approaching or has exceeded a predetermined threshold temperature, which is determined by the system sensor.

This base lifting function can be deployed to reduce the operating temperature of the electronic device. This can also solve the problems Apple users have been facing, especially the Apple M1 Mac, such as the 13-inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air. Both machines use the same M1 processor. However, for video editing, for example, the MacBook Pro is a better purchase object. This is specifically because its chassis is better ventilated, so the performance is faster.
