Patent number: 11697447Abstract: A tilt assembly (30) for a steering column assembly (10) including a pair of downwardly disposed plates each having a slot (36); an elongated member adapted to be rotated, wherein the elongated member penetrates the slot (36) of each downwardly disposed plate and extends therebetween; a rotational member (50) located within each slot (36) and having an opening through which the elongated member is received; a biasing member (60) with a first end (62) and a second end (68), where at least one end engages with the rotational member (50). The biasing member (60) is adapted to drive rotation of the rotational member (50). When the tilt assembly (30) is in an unlocked position, the rotational member (50) is adapted to travel with respect to the slot (36), and when the tilt assembly (30) is in a locked position, the rotational member (50) is adapted to rotate and engage with a wail that is fixed with respect to the slot (36).Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: NSK LTD.Inventors: Alex Carl, Daniel Gazzerro, David Ray Hartman, Victor Corona Martinez

Patent number: 10327358Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for fluid connections in modular cooling systems for cooling electronic components installed in equipment racks. A cold plate is positioned adjacent to a support manifold in a mated position, where the cold plate comprises a plate connector. The plate connector comprises a plate outer sleeve and defines a central passageway. The support manifold comprises a manifold connector, which comprises a manifold outer sleeve and defines a central passageway. An outer surface of the manifold outer sleeve is positioned adjacent to an outer surface of the plate outer sleeve. A cam is rotated about a pivot pin and engages with a plate retainer to secure the cold plate against the support manifold, and the central passageway of the plate connector is connected in fluid communication with the central passageway of the manifold connector.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2017Date of Patent: June 18, 2019Assignee: Seagate Technology LLCInventors: Laurence A.
