  • Patent number: 7378755
    Abstract: An information handling system AC-to-DC adapter provides a low DC power output on initial application of an AC power input. The low DC power output supports communication between the adapter and the information handling system of adapter identification information. The information handling system confirms a proper connection with the adapter and sends an authorization to the adapter to output a high DC power output. The adapter monitors the connection with the information handling system to disable the high DC power output if not needed, such as if the information handling system is disconnected from the adapter or reaches a fully charged battery state.

  • Publication number: 20050008186
    Abstract: In a speaker assembly in a portable device information handling system, a battery is operable to provide power to the portable device. The battery includes a plurality of cells housed in a battery housing. A predefined number of cells included in the plurality of cells are removable to define a selective portion of the battery housing. The speaker assembly housed in a speaker container is installable in the selective portion. The dimensions of the battery housing having the speaker container installed in the selective portion are substantially unchanged. A terminal connector assembly having a plurality of electrical connectors couples the battery and the speaker assembly to external devices. The speaker assembly includes a speaker operable to output sound having a low frequency.

  • Patent number: 6460336
    Abstract: A housing (2) for a master cylinder (1) having a bore (3) in which a piston (4) is slideable to pressurize fluid ahead of a main seal (5) on the piston for the supply of pressurized fluid to an outlet (10). Two inlet openings (7,8) are provided into the bore, a first opening (7) for recuperation of fluid from an associated reservoir to that part (6) of the bore ahead of the main piston seal (5) when the piston is in a retracted position and a second opening (8) placing that portion (11) of the bore between the main piston seal and a second piston seal (9) behind the main seal in permanent communication with the reservoir. The housing also has an external inlet connection (41) formed integrally with the housing. The inlet connection has a free end for direct connection with a conduit (41a) connected with the associated reservoir and having a passage (42) for connection with the conduit which opens into the housing bore at the first (7) and second (8) openings.

  • Patent number: 6418717
    Abstract: A hydraulic cylinder has a piston (13) with a seal (21) in sealed sliding contact within a bore (12) to define a working chamber (16) ahead of the piston for the discharge of pressurised fluid from the bore via an outlet (17) when the piston is undertaking working stroke, an inlet (20) is provided into the bore from an associated reservoir to allow connection between the reservoir and the working chamber when the piston is in a fully retracted state for recuperation of fluid from the reservoir to the working chamber. The connection between the reservoir and working chamber is provided via a sleeve (27) in the bore (12) winch includes axially extending grooves (28), the grooves being closed by the piston seal (21) during a working stroke of the cylinder but the ends (30) of the grooves being open when the piston (13) is in a fully retracted condition within the sleeve thus by-passing the piston sleeve to connect the working chamber and reservoir.
