Publication number: 20230349482Abstract: A thermostatic assembly comprises a casing in which are delimited a chamber where hot and cold fluids mix to form a mixed fluid, a hot fluid inlet, a cold fluid inlet and a mixed fluid outlet. This assembly also comprises a thermostatic element including a thermosensitive body and a piston which move relative to one another along a central axis (X-X) of the chamber as a function of the temperature of the mixed fluid. A spool regulates the temperature of the mixed fluid, being connected to the thermosensitive body to be moved along the central axis in the chamber so as to close, in respective inverse proportions, hot and cold fluid passages which are each delimited, along the central axis, between the spool and the casing. In order to make this assembly more adaptable to various geometries of the installation environment, the spool has a profile that is non-circular.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2021Publication date: November 2, 2023Inventors: Laurie Cécile Marie LOUBOUTIN, Matthieu DRABER

Patent number: 9530174Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that manages a thermal profile of a device by selectively throttling graphics processing unit operations of the device is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device monitors the thermal profile of the device, where the device executes a plurality of processes that utilizes a graphics processing unit of the device. In addition, the plurality of processes include a high priority process and a low priority process. If the thermal profile of the device exceeds a thermal threshold, the device decreases a first GPU utilization for the low priority process and maintains a second GPU utilization for the high priority process. The device further executes the low priority process using the first GPU utilization with the GPU and executes the high priority process using the second GPU utilization with the GPU.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2014Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Umesh Suresh Vaishampayan, Derek R.
