Abstract: Various embodiments provide for deferring adjustment of a zone in a memory system or sub-system that supports zones. In particular, some embodiments provide for deferred adjustment of a zone based on detection of an error in a block of an unassigned block set, which can be tracked using a counter.

Abstract: A valve collar for a downhole packer includes a flow path. The flow path includes an opening valve and closing valve. The valve collar further includes a lockout valve piston. The lockout valve piston is positioned such that in an unset position, the flow path is open and in a set position, the flow path is blocked by the lockout valve piston. The lockout valve piston may be adapted to be shifted from the unset position to the set position by a pressure spike inside the valve collar. The lockout valve piston may be held in the unset position by a temporary restraint.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a heat exchanger including a holder and a nut. The holder defines a holding space therein. The nut includes a main body, which is inserted into the holding space along an insertion direction, and a protrusion, which protrudes from the main body. The nut defines a threaded hole that extends through the main body and the protrusion. The holder further defines an opening at a first surface of the holder. The protrusion has an end surface that aligns with or protrudes from the first surface through the opening when the nut is inserted into the holding space. The end surface contacts an external component when the external component is fixed to the heat exchanger by inserting a bolt into the threaded hole through the external component.

Abstract: An architecture for a specialized electronic computer for high-speed data lookup employs a set of tiles each with independent logic elements lookup memory portions. The tiles may each comprise gate-array-like functional units that may be wired together by a multi-way switch for extremely low latency.

Abstract: An ankle sprain reduction system includes a shoe having a brace incorporated in the shoe. The brace has a base plate with medial and lateral sides extending upwardly from a lower base portion. Medial and lateral support plates are pivotally mounted to each of the sides at a location below the malleoli. The lower base portion is of a length that extends from the heel to just proximal to the metatarsalphalangeal joints of the foot.

Abstract: A modified clothes hanger configured to suspend belts from a clothing rod. The device has a hook on its upper extreme, and a transverse beam on its lower extreme. A series of alternating prongs extend outward and upward from the transverse beam. The hook is placed over the clothing rod to install the device in a closet. The belt buckle of each belt to be hung is placed over one of the alternating prongs. The prongs are positioned and oriented so that the resulting weight placed on the hanger is well balanced. A variety of embodiments are described, including a hanger formed as one piece from molded plastic.
