Publication number: 20240143043Abstract: A desktop computing system having at least a central core surrounded by housing having a shape that defines a volume in which the central core resides is described. The housing includes a first opening and a second opening axially displaced from the first opening. The first opening having a size and shape in accordance with an amount of airflow used as a heat transfer medium for cooling internal components, the second opening defined by a lip that engages a portion of the airflow in such a way that at least some of the heat transferred to the air flow from the internal components is passed to the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Eugene A. Whang, Christopher J. Stringer, Brett W. Degner, David H. Narajowski, Patrick Kessler, Eric R. Prather, Caitlin Elizabeth Kalinowski, Adam T. Stagnaro, Daniel L. McBroom, Matthew P.

Patent number: 11927398Abstract: A cooling apparatus for a medium voltage or high voltage switchgear includes an evaporator, a fluid conduit, and a condenser. The evaporator is configured to surround at least part of a current carrying contact. The fluid conduit fluidly connects the evaporator to the condenser. A section of the fluid conduit is formed within the evaporator and is electrically insulating and is configured such that fluid can contact an outer surface of the current carrying contact. The cooling apparatus is configured such that in use a working fluid in the evaporator is heated to a vapour state, and the vapour is transferred by the fluid conduit to the condenser. The vapour in the condenser is condensed to the working fluid. The condensed working fluid is passively returned via the fluid conduit to the evaporator.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: ABB Schweiz AGInventors: Michael Kessler, Oleksandr Sologubenko, Jaroslav Hemrle, Andrzej Rybak, Adam Michalik

Patent number: 11610654Abstract: A note automation server automatically generates medical notes for appointments between patients and physicians. The note automation server generates a fingerprint for each upcoming appointment between a patient and physician using information from an EHR system and information stored on the note automation server. The fingerprint includes information about the patient, including demographic information and medical history. The note automation server identifies an appropriate note template and billing codes for the appointment using the fingerprint and an audio file recorded by a physician during and/or after an appointment. The fingerprint, audio file, and note template are used complete of the medical note. The completed medical note and billing codes are exported to the EHR system, where it is accessed by the physician. The note automation server monitors the EHR system to see if the physician modified the medical note or a billing code.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2019Date of Patent: March 21, 2023Assignee: Zealth, Inc.Inventors: Justin Stewart White, Pranay Kapadia, Adam Kessler Ting

Patent number: 9211210Abstract: Methods and devices are disclosed for manipulating the hyoid bone, such as to treat obstructive sleep apnea. A conformable implant is positioned adjacent a hyoid bone. The spatial orientation of the hyoid bone is manipulated, to affect the configuration of the airway. The implant restrains the hyoid bone in the manipulated configuration. The implant is positioned adjacent to pharyngeal structures to dilate the pharyngeal airway and/or to support the pharyngeal wall against collapse. The implant may be attached to the hyoid bone using a clamp delivery tool that is adapted to releasably engage the implant.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2014Date of Patent: December 15, 2015Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Chad C. Roue, Adam Kessler, Mark Hirotsuka, Jasper Jackson, Erik J. Van Der Burg, Michael T. Dineen, Andrew Frazier

Publication number: 20110184505Abstract: Anastomotic components may be attached to hollow bodies or vessels by magnetic or mechanical force to create an anastomosis, form a port in a vessel, or repair a diseased vessel lumen. Anastomoses are created by coupling a first connection to an end of a vessel and then attracting it to a second connector secured to the side wall of another vessel. The connection between the first and second connectors may be solidly magnetic, solely mechanical, or a combination thereof. Also disclosed are methods and devices for treating diseased vessel lumens, for example abdominal aortic aneurysm. A plurality of docking members is attached to the vessel at solicited positions, and then one or more grafts is secured to the docking members in any suitable manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2011Publication date: July 28, 2011Applicant: Medtronic, Inc.Inventors: A.
