  • Patent number: 7594191
    Abstract: Information is visually presented to a computer user by receiving, in a computer system, a request to present a first visual item representing a first information portion selected from an information collection available in the computer system. It is determined, in response to the request: (i) which of several predefined categories the first information portion is associated with, and (ii) which of several predefined generality levels the first information portion has. A presentation that includes an area divided into segments extending between a center and a periphery of the area is generated on a display device. The segments correspond to the respective predefined categories and the area is concentrically divided into levels corresponding to the respective predefined generality levels. The first visual item is placed in one of the segments and at one of the levels according to its determined category and generality level. Item distribution effectively uses available space.

  • Publication number: 20080251240
    Abstract: A system for cooling heat-generating objects, such as computer boards situated in a rack, includes an enclosure in which the heat generating objects are situated. The enclosure has an air inlet and an air outlet, and a fan induces airflow into the air inlet, through the enclosure and out the air outlet. A heat exchanger is situated in the enclosure such that the heat exchanger is in a spaced apart relationship with the heat-generating object. Air moving through or past the heat-generating object is warmed, and the heat exchanger removes the heat before the air exits the enclosure.

  • Publication number: 20060180301
    Abstract: An enclosure containing heat-producing equipment includes an air inlet for admitting air from an environment containing the enclosure. The equipment is situated relative to the air inlet such that the air absorbs heat from the equipment, increasing the temperature of the air. An air-to-liquid heat exchanger is mounted on an outside surface of the enclosure adjacent to an air outlet. The heat exchanger is connectable to an external cooling source such that heat from the heated air exiting the enclosure absorbed by the heat exchanger is expelled outside the environment containing the enclosure.

  • Patent number: 6579566
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing resin impregnated wire windings by trickling an impregnating resin onto a heated rotating winding or by dipping the heated rotating winding in a bath filled with an impregnating resin. The impregnating resin comprises an epoxy resin and an initiator for the polymerization of the epoxy resin. The initiator is either a selected compound that is activated by ultraviolet irradiation, a heat-activatible initiator, or a mixture thereof. The heat-activatible initiator is a mixture comprising at least one quarternary ammonium salt and at least one thermal radical former.
