Abstract: An improved patch panel assembly includes a frame and faceplate that mate with a housing, and the housing defines a plurality of individual communication ports. The housing is mounted to the patch panel frame and includes jack openings that accommodate data jacks and circuit board openings that accommodate mating blades of circuit boards. The two sets of openings are separated on the housing by an intervening spacing and interposer terminal sets are provided to electrically interconnect the jacks with circuits on the circuit boards. The patch panel housings may be formed in discrete groupings so that, if desired, the patch panels may have ports that are grouped together by bandwidth, storage capability and the like. Inasmuch as the housings are mounted to the patch panel frames, the jacks and the circuit boards can be easily and individually replaced, repaired or upgraded with similar components without requiring disassembly of the patch panel.

Abstract: This invention relates to valves (2) for heat exchanger thermostats (1), thermostat heads (3) for a heat exchanger thermostat (1) and a heat exchanger thermostat (1) comprising a valve (2) and a thermostat head (3). According to the invention, temperature sensitive means (10) are provided on or within said valve (2) and/or said thermostat head (3) influencing a throttling behavior of said valve (2) depending on a temperature of a fluid controlled by said valve (2). By this, a premature throttling of the fluid controlled by said valve (2) due to heat transfer between the fluid and the thermostat head (3) may be prevented. Thus, a good ambient temperature may be established which comes closer to the desired room temperature.

Abstract: The combination of a portable article, a first support, and at least one connecting element for maintaining the portable article in a secured state relative to the first support. The at least one connecting element has at least one arm which overlies a portion of the portable article. At least a portion of the at least one connecting element at least one of a) is made from a hardened metal material, b) has a stepped configuration, and c) has a shaped non-flat surface so as to be resistant to bending in a manner to allow the portable article to be released from the secured state.

Abstract: A tethering system having an elongate flexible element, with a length, and an anchoring system. The anchoring system has a block defining first and second surfaces. The anchoring system further includes (a) a first anchoring assembly for bearing a first portion of the elongate flexible element against the first surface with the first anchoring assembly in a first state to maintain the first portion of the elongate flexible element substantially fixed against movement relative to the first surface, and (b) a second anchoring assembly for bearing a second portion of the elongate flexible element against the second surface. The first anchoring assembly is changeable selectively between its first state and a second state wherein the first portion of the elongate flexible element can move relative to the first surface to allow the elongate flexible element to be formed into a loop with a variable diameter.

Abstract: The invention concerns a cooling ceiling installation with at least one heat exchanger, a valve, which controls the flow of a heat transfer medium through the heat exchanger and a mechanical control device, and a monitoring device. It is endeavored to provide a simple manner of avoiding a condensate formation on the cooling ceiling installation. For this purpose, the monitoring device has an adjustment drive, which mechanically displaces the control device to a state, in which the valve is closed.
