Patent number: 9697095Abstract: A switch failure recovery system includes a network and a backup device that is coupled to the network. A first switch that includes a first switch memory system is also coupled to the network. The first switch stores a first switch configuration in the first switch memory system. The first switch then detects a failure issue associated with an imminent failure of the first switch and, in response, retrieves the first switch configuration from the first switch memory system, The first switch then sends the first switch configuration over the network to the backup device prior to an inability to communicate over the network due to the failure issue. The backup device may then provide the first switch configuration for application to the first switch (upon recovery) or a second switch that is coupled to the network.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2014Date of Patent: July 4, 2017Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Andrew Berry, Craig Warren Phelps, Deborah C.

Patent number: 9620890Abstract: Thermal-transfer assembly includes a first transfer module having a plurality of first projections. The first projections are spaced apart from one another to form corresponding gaps therebetween. The thermal-transfer assembly also includes a second transfer module having a plurality of second projections. The second projections are spaced apart from one another to form corresponding gaps therebetween. The first and second transfer modules interface with each other in a mated arrangement. The first and second projections project in opposite directions along a Z-axis and intimately engage one another to transfer thermal energy therebetween. The thermal-transfer assembly also includes an assembly clip coupled to and configured to engage each of the first and second transfer modules. The assembly clip prevents the first and second transfer modules from separating along the Z-axis and/or biases the first and second transfer modules away from each other along the Z-axis.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2016Date of Patent: April 11, 2017Assignee: TE CONNECTIVITY CORPORATIONInventors: Michael Joseph Vino, IV, Alan Weir Bucher, Craig Warren Hornung

Patent number: 9580914Abstract: Fastening means, a preferred embodiment of which is shown in FIG. 2, has a joist 1 and a locking member 5. The joist 1 has a channel and locking extensions and the locking member 5 has a base 6 and an upstand 7. The base 6 has rounded corners 10. The fastening means is formed such that when it is in use the locking member 5 can be slid into the channel and rotated therein to assume a locking position, such rotation made possible by the rounded corners 10 which, when in use, serve to prevent a rotational impasse between the joist 1 and the locking member 5. The fastening means is formed such that when the locking member is in the locking position it is in a tight fit within the channel and cannot pull out of the channel by reason of obstruction by the locking extensions.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2012Date of Patent: February 28, 2017Inventor: Craig Warren Richard Fountain
