  • Publication number: 20240040745
    Abstract: A method for filling and draining a liquid cooling system, may include, in a fill mode of the system, causing a pump to drive liquid from a reservoir configured to hold the liquid, through a first fluidic conduit configured to couple to a first pair of fluid disconnects of a manifold of the liquid cooling system, through the first pair of fluid disconnects, to fluidic channels of the liquid cooling system fluidically coupled to the first pair of fluid disconnects, and in a drain mode of the system, causing the pump to drive liquid present in the fluidic channels to flow from the fluidic channels, through the first pair of fluid disconnects, through the first fluidic conduit, and to the reservoir.

  • Patent number: 11409474
    Abstract: A data processing device may include an internal volume that is sealed from space outside the internal volume and an optical system. The optical system may include a first portion, disposed in the internal volume, adapted to receive network data units from devices disposed in the internal volume and a second portion of the optical system. The optical system may also include the second portion, disposed outside of the internal volume, adapted to obtain the network data units from the first portion via an optical connection using transmission at optical frequencies.

  • Patent number: 10724599
    Abstract: An equipment rack withstands seismic events using a tuned mass damper. The tuned mass damper is adapted for rack mounting to a shelf, thus allowing the tuned mass damper to be retrofitted into existing rack installations. The tuned mass damper also has variable and/or swappable features to suit the weight, stiffness, and other properties of the equipment rack.

  • Patent number: 8746600
    Abstract: A bone mill including a base and a mill head that is removably attached to the base. A cutting disc is moveably disposed in the mill head. A motor is disposed in the base. A spindle attached to the motor releasably engages the cutting disk. The spindle is also capable of movement towards and away from the motor. A spring holds the mill head away from the motor. In some versions of the invention, the spring urges the spindle towards the cutting disc. The biasing force exerted by the spring urges the spindle into engagement with the cutting disc. A locking assembly releasably holds the mill head to the base in opposition of the force exerted by the spring.

  • Patent number: 8343156
    Abstract: A bone mill including a base and a mill head that is removably attached to the base. A cutting disc is rotatably disposed in the mill head. When the mill head is attached to base, the cutting disc is rotated by a motor internal to the base. A plunger mounted to the mill head urges the bone against the cutting disc. The cutting disc and an impingement plate internal to the mill head shear the bone into chips. The chips are discharged from an opening in the mill head into a catch tray removably attached to the mill head.
