  • Patent number: 10251302
    Abstract: A flexible architecture for installing electronic equipment in a data center rack is provided, in the form of a virtual chassis. The virtual chassis simultaneously accepts multiple types of equipment items (e.g., computing devices, storage devices, communication devices) and/or multiple versions of a given type of equipment item, by altering the physical configuration of the chassis. As a result, cells or spaces of multiple different form-factors may be defined for receiving the equipment. Also, services such as data and power may be pre-attached to a virtual chassis so that when a computer server or other item is installed, it is automatically connected to the services without separate effort. One or more electronic equipment items, when installed in a cell of the chassis, may mate automatically with multiple data connectors and/or power connectors.

  • Publication number: 20190000171
    Abstract: An article of clothing may include a first layer made of a polyester fabric. The polyester fabric may have the following properties a thread count of at least 130 threads per square inch, a weft knit weave pattern, and a bird's eye mesh texture. The polyester fabric may include a dye sublimation printed image with a resolution that is at least 200 dots per inch. The dye sublimation printed image may be oriented to stretch laterally with a lateral stretch of the polyester. The article of clothing may also include a second layer attached to the first layer. The second layer may include a lining fabric configured to stretch laterally with the first layer.

  • Publication number: 20160153652
    Abstract: A wearable article is described. The wearable article may include a fabric piece, an electroluminescent (EL), and a switch. The EL wire may include a conductor and a light emitting phosphor in contact with the conductor and configured to enclose the conductor and to emit light in response to the conductor receiving power. The EL wire may also include an insulator configured to enclose the light emitting phosphor. The insulator may include a structure configured to attach to the fabric piece. The switch may be configured to control power supplied to the conductor such that the switch controls an operation mode of the EL wire.

  • Publication number: 20120209875
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are: systems capable of searching, receiving and conglomerating the data from real estate databases of varying formats, and translating that received into a common format; execution of pre-defined translation rules referencing data tags used within the system or the originating databases; rules constructed in a simple, hierarchical or a class-based structure whereby one rule depends upon the output of another rule for its input; data sources prioritized or merged where the same property-related information is presented in more than one source; map definitions containing rule sets crafted for a particular use, such as for a particular consumer or user; such systems used in the course of real estate appraisals, in property search reports, extending across databases of differing formats. Detailed information on various example embodiments of the inventions are provided in the Detailed Description below, and the inventions are defined by the appended claims.
