APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COOLING A DOCKING STATION

摘要

A docking station that enables the simultaneous connection of two patient monitoring devices is provided. A housing selectively supports two patient monitoring devices thereon. A first port positioned on the housing receives a first patient monitoring device therein and a second port positioned on the housing receives a second patient monitoring device therein. At least one vent extends through the housing and is positioned between the first port and the second port. A plurality of electrical components positioned in the housing that connects each of the first and second patient monitoring device to the docking station and controls the operation of the docking station and heat generated by the plurality of electrical components flows out of the housing via the at least one vent.
