TECHNOLOGIES FOR LIQUID COOLING INTERFACES

Abstract:

Techniques for liquid cooling interfaces with rotatable connector assemblies are disclosed. In one embodiment, a collar contacts flanges on two components of a connector assembly, preventing them from separating. In another embodiment, a housing is positioned around a stem component. The stem component has a gap between a top part and a bottom part held apart by pillars, allowing water to flow to a tubing fitting connected to the housing. A retainer on top of the stem component holds the housing in place. In yet another embodiment, an internal retainer holds a housing component in place over a stem. Other embodiments are disclosed.
