Abstract: Disclosed is a self-priming fluid transfer system having an integral siphon line that draws trapped air bubbles out of a main fluid chamber over time and fluid cycles. The self-priming fluid transfer system may include a body structure, a siphon line, and a priming inlet. The body structure may include a main fluid chamber having a chamber inlet and a chamber outlet. The siphon line may be positioned along the main fluid chamber and may include a siphon inlet and a siphon outlet that are positioned at or near the chamber inlet and the chamber outlet, respectively. The priming inlet may be positioned at or near a top wall of the body structure and may receive air bubbles from the main fluid chamber and output the air bubbles at the siphon outlet. Other examples may be described and claimed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a dual-sided cooling jacket configured to receive and cool devices on both sides of the cooling jacket. The cooling jacket may include a main fluid chamber that receives and outputs fluid from an inlet and an outlet, respectively. A first plate and a second plate may be joined to form the cooling jacket with the main fluid chamber therebetween. The first plate may include first threaded members that allow one or more devices to be mounted to the first plate. The second plate may include second threaded members that allow devices to be mounted to the second plate. The cooling jacket may include a siphon line to prevent accumulation of air bubbles within the main fluid chamber. Other examples may be described and claimed.

The priming inlet may be positioned at or near a top wall of the body structure and may receive air bubbles from the main fluid chamber. The siphon outlet may be positioned at the chamber outlet and may output the air bubbles at the chamber outlet. Other examples may be described and claimed.

Abstract: A universal power converter for generating a regulated voltage, current or power with a large input voltage range. The power converter has a voltage boost function configured to boost the rectified input voltage and provide power factor correction. The power converter also includes a voltage chop function to chop the boosted voltage to form an AC voltage. The power converter further includes at least one relay in electrical communication with the AC voltage and a transformer. The primary winding has at least two inputs operative to selectively vary the voltage generated on a secondary winding thereof selected by the relay. Accordingly, the power converter can generate different voltages at the output based upon the position of the relay and the boosted voltage. The power converter provides maximum power operation at a wide output voltage range, maximizing the charging energy.
