Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a cooling module for cooling heat-generating electronic devices in an immersion cooling system. The cooling module includes an integrated pump, which draws immersion fluid from the surrounding dielectric bath and drives it into a pressurized plenum to pressurize the coolant fluid and drive the pressurized coolant fluid through a nozzle plate containing a microconvective nozzle array. The array accelerates the fluid to produce a multiplicity of microjets that impinge on a surface of the heat-generating electronic device to be cooled. The effluent from the cooling module may be directed to flow into and wash over nearby heat-generating devices to help cool the nearby heat-generating devices. The effluent may also be directed to the inlets of daughter cooling modules attached to other heat-generating electronic devices.

Abstract: A portable VOG device is disclosed that will facilitate the effective and efficient screening for TBI in military personnel in forward deployed military settings or remote locations using minimally trained staff. This includes the establishment of a protocol that will provide cost effective pre-screening of military personnel prior to deployment to establish a baseline of brain function prior to possible future injury. The efficiency of the device will promote subsequent follow-up screening to assess the effectiveness of prescribed TBI treatment. Further protocols for diagnosis and rehabilitation applications using the same virtual reality portable device will allow more advanced usage for clinicians providing ongoing evaluation and treatment.

Abstract: A paint roller guide includes a mounting structure configured to be positioned adjacent a portion of a paint roller frame, and a flexible surface configured to bend according to a dimension of the portion of the paint roller frame so as to snap together the mounting structure and the portion of the paint roller frame. A guide arm is mounted to the mounting structure. The guide arm may be configured to rotate in multiple directions relative to a length of the mounting structure.

Abstract: Energy storage and conversion systems are, formed when tightly integrated components including thermochemical storage subsystem with a concentration cell to provide very high capacity and high energy density systems. Systems taught here include the unique combination of a thermochemical energy storage module in close thermal communication with a direct energy converter in the form of a concentration cell. A closed-loop thermochemical module receives heat input at a receiving port to drive a reversible chemical reaction. The end-to-end system achieves an ‘on-demand’ functionality because the reagents of said chemical reaction may be safely stored for long periods of time without detrimental effect. When these reagents are again reunited, they produce heat that may be transmitted to the direct energy converter arranged to convert so received heat directly into an electric output suitable for doing work on an external system.
