  • Publication number: 20240302874
    Abstract: A handle assembly includes a bracket, a first handle movably coupled to the bracket, and a second handle movably coupled to the bracket. The bracket can be movably coupled to a housing of a computing device. The first handle is movable between an insertion orientation and an ejection orientation. The second handle is movable between a locked orientation and an unlocked orientation and includes a locking structure to lock the expansion card within the housing. When the bracket is coupled to the housing, movement of the first handle between the insertion orientation and the ejection orientation causes the bracket and the second handle to move linearly within the housing. Movement of the second handle between the locked orientation and the unlocked orientation causes the locking structure to move between a locked position and an unlocked position.

  • Publication number: 20220071045
    Abstract: Extendable lever arms can be used to facilitate insertion and removal of a sled into and out of a chassis. Each extendable lever can include a rotatable body, a primary arm, and a secondary arm. The rotatable body can be rotatably coupled to the housing of the sled, and can optionally include latching elements to secure the sled within the chassis, as well as optional removal features to facilitate disengaging the sled from the chassis. The secondary arm can be coupled to the primary arm to move between a retracted position and an extended position. When in the retracted position, the secondary arm can be positioned adjacent to the primary arm to avoid blocking access to ports of the sled. When in the extended position, however, the secondary arm can be positioned to provide a longer lever arm to facilitate insertion and removal of the sled.

  • Patent number: 11164676
    Abstract: A computer-aided recognition system for treatment response of rectal cancer is provided to predict the probability of a pathological complete response (pCR) of a rectal cancer patient after preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The system includes a random forest model having several decision trees. Each decision tree has at least a feature node. Each feature node generates two branches according to a feature threshold, wherein each branch connects to another feature node or corresponds to an elementary pCR predicting probability. The random forest model integrates the elementary pCR probability of each decision tree, so as to generate a final pCR probability.

  • Patent number: 10459341
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally provide a digital lithography system that can process both large area substrates as well as semiconductor device substrates, such as wafers. Both the large area substrates and the semiconductor device substrates can be processed in the same system simultaneously. Additionally, the system can accommodate different levels of exposure for forming the features over the substrates. For example, the system can accommodate very precise feature patterning as well as less precise feature patterning. The different exposures can occur in the same chamber simultaneously. Thus, the system is capable of processing both semiconductor device substrates and large area substrates simultaneously while also accommodating very precise feature patterning simultaneous with less precise feature patterning.
