  • Patent number: 11812587
    Abstract: The description relates to cooling electronic components, such as computing devices. One example includes a rack defining a volume and multiple sealed chassis modules removably fluidly coupled to a two-phase condenser tank via a vapor coupler and a liquid coupler. Individual sealed chassis modules can contain one or more electronic components immersed in two-phase coolant that when heated by operation of the electronic components experiences a phase change from a liquid phase to a gas phase and travels to the two-phase condenser tank via the vapor coupler and is cooled in the two-phase condenser tank until experiencing a phase change back into the liquid phase. Individual sealed chassis modules can be decoupled from the two-phase condenser tank without releasing two-phase coolant and an entirety of the multiple sealed chassis modules and the condenser tank are contained in the volume of the rack.

  • Patent number: 11812571
    Abstract: This application relates to a magnetic attachment mechanism attached to a stand for a display unit. The display unit includes a housing enclosing a display panel. The housing has a recess formed on a rear surface of the housing to accept the magnetic attachment mechanism. The magnetic attachment mechanism includes a magnetic element that is magnetically coupled to a corresponding magnetic element in the housing of the desktop display device when the magnetic attachment mechanism is inserted into the recess. The magnetic attachment mechanism also includes a latch mechanism that locks the display unit to the stand when the latch mechanism is engaged with a surface feature of the recess. The latch mechanism can be disengaged to allow for mobility of the display unit as separated from the stand.

  • Patent number: 11812072
    Abstract: An aspect of the present disclosure includes a node housing for use in a broadband distribution network that includes coupling the amplifier to a lid portion and providing an interface plate in a base portion that allows for RF and power signals to be provided to the RF amplifier within the lid portion. The interface plate disposed within the base portion further preferably provides power pass-through to downstream nodes that remains electrically connected even when the amplifier is decoupled from the lid portion. Thus, the amplifier and/or lid portion may be decoupled from the base portion without disrupting power distribution to the down-stream nodes.
