  • Publication number: 20190059173
    Abstract: Provided is an equipment displacement system (12) for a containerised data centre (14). The system (12) comprises at least one platform (16) which is configured to operatively receive equipment (18). In a preferred example the system (12) typically comprises two platforms (16). The system (12) further generally comprises a guide (20) which operatively mounts each platform (16) onto an equipment mounting surface (22) of a container (10). Each guide (20) is configured for guiding a platform (16) between opposing sides (24.1) and (24.2) of the container (10).

  • Patent number: 5127923
    Abstract: An abrasive compact with a substantially solid body is provided from a mass of abrasive particles which are bonded together on a particle-to-particle basis. A network of interstices is formed within the body by removing the metallic second phase by-product of a solvent catalyst sintering aid. The network of interstices is filled with the carbide by product of a non-catalyst sintering aid forking a solid body. A substrate is bonded to some of the particles and to some of the carbide filling the network of interstices.
