MICRO-HOLE PERFORATED STRUCTURE

摘要

Micro-hole structures are described herein that may be implemented for device ventilation, protection, and design. The micro-hole structures include multiple micro-holes that are imperceptible to users at ordinary viewing angles and distances, and are thus porous structures that appear to be solid. A micro-hole structure may be formed as a housing of a device or as a structure to be attached to the housing of the device. A device with a micro-hole structure housing enables thermal ventilation from heat-producing components located within the housing. Additionally, micro-holes of a micro-hole structure may be organized to operate as a design element for the device while simultaneously providing ventilation. The micro-holes are sufficiently small to allow for passage of air through the micro-hole structure while also prohibiting entrance of water and/or other contaminants into the housing of the device.
