  • Patent number: 12202408
    Abstract: A vehicle door assembly comprises an inner door panel, an outer door panel and a mirror assembly. The outer panel is fixed to the inner door panel, the outer door panel having an mounting opening. The mirror assembly is supported to an outer perimeter of the mounting opening of the outer door panel. The mirror assembly has a base bracket and a dampener. The dampener is disposed between the base bracket and at least a portion of the outer perimeter mounting opening of the outer door panel such that the base bracket and the outer door panel are spaced with respect to each other by the dampener.

  • Patent number: 7715328
    Abstract: A method of mirroring data to a mirrored to port in a plurality of switches. The method has the steps of determining if data was sent to all of said plurality of switches; determining if said data was sent to a mirrored to port (MTP); and resending said data to all of said plurality of switches if mirroring is enabled and said data was not sent to said MTP.

  • Publication number: 20050108510
    Abstract: A register file backup system for use with a computer which processes instructions to generate results which thereby change the visual state of the computer. The computer has a register file with a plurality of addressable locations for storing data. The backup system is adapted to return the visual state of the computer to a previous state if an instruction generates an exception. The backup system utilizes less overhead so as to provide easier register file backup than a comparable software or hardware device. The backup system comprises first means for sequentially storing in program order, address information corresponding to destination locations in the register file where instruction results are to be stored.
