Patent number: 7272006Abstract: An apparatus includes a microchannel structure that has microchannels formed therein. The microchannels are for transporting a coolant and are intended to be proximate to an integrated circuit to transfer heat from the integrated circuit to the coolant. The apparatus further includes a cover positioned on the microchannel structure. The cover has formed therein a right-angle passage to provide fluid communication between a first port on a lower horizontal surface of the cover and a second port on a vertical surface of the cover. The cover includes a plurality of tabs. Each tab extends from a respective corner of the cover. The tabs each have an aperture formed therein. The apertures are shaped and sized to receive a fastener.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2005Date of Patent: September 18, 2007Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Rajiv K. Mongia, Himanshu Pokharna, Eric DiStefano, Shawn S. McEuen, Brian A. Wilk

Publication number: 20060290058Abstract: An action figure game piece is disclosed. The game piece comprises a game figure character adapted for movement a distance over a surface and a mechanism for indicating the distance of movement over the surface. A method of playing an action figure game on the surface is also disclosed. The method comprises providing for each player a plurality of the game pieces, each game piece having an indicium indicating a point value, a mechanism for indicating a distance the game piece has moved over the surface, and a mechanism for attacking an opponent player's game pieces. The method also comprises selecting for each player a group of the game pieces having point values summing to a predetermined value and selecting a number of actions each player can take per player's turn. An action comprises either a move, comprising moving a game piece a distance up to the particular game piece's point value, or an attack, comprising actuation of the particular game piece's attacking mechanism.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2006Publication date: December 28, 2006Applicant: HASBRO, INC.Inventors: Brian Wilk, David Kunitz, Thomas McCarthy, Henry Winters
