  • Patent number: 11890224
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of fabrication are provided which include a mechanical coolant pump to facilitate pumping a coolant through a coolant loop. The mechanical coolant pump is to couple to an individual and be physically powered by a specified movement of the individual to pump coolant. Coolant pumped by the mechanical coolant pump is circulated by the coolant pump through a device associated with the individual to cool the device.

  • Publication number: 20230418009
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure include a structure for thermal management of pluggable hardware modules, an optical transceiver, and a method of cooling a pluggable hardware module. One embodiment of the structure may comprise a socket assembly adapted to receive a hardware module. The socket assembly may comprise an integrated fluid reservoir containing a thermal interface material (TIM). The socket assembly may be further adapted to define a gap when the hardware module is plugged into the socket assembly. The structure may further comprise at least one dispensing port in fluid communication with the integrated fluid reservoir and the gap. The at least one dispensing port may be adapted to automatically distribute TIM from the integrated fluid reservoir into the gap when the hardware module is plugged into the socket assembly.

  • Patent number: 11789798
    Abstract: An apparatus includes circuitry configured to maintain a record of a plurality of owners and at least one test operation owned by an owner; prompt automatically the owner in response to a failure of the one test operation; maintain a log of actions taken on the one test operation, and provide availability to the log of actions; update an estimated time to completion, and notify a management entity of the updated estimated time to completion; mark and prioritize an order related to the one test operation, in response to the estimated time to completion being within a threshold of a delivery date; rank the marked order with other marked orders by a risk of not being able to meet the delivery date; and notify the owner of the ranking with an urgent message, in response to the marked order failing to meet the delivery date.
