  • Patent number: 11498307
    Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to a structure which includes shape memory materials having transition triggers to transition the shape memory materials between initial states and transitioned states. A first physical shape of the structure exists when the first shape memory material has the first initial state and the second shape memory material has the second initial state. A second physical shape of the structure exists when the first shape memory material has the first transitioned state and the second shape memory material has the second initial state. A third physical shape of the structure exists when the first shape memory material has the first transitioned state and the second shape memory material has the second transitioned state. The physical shapes of the structure are reversible in nature. In embodiments, the shape memory materials are bonded to a flexible substrate or are clad together.

  • Patent number: 11298721
    Abstract: An inside surface of a hose for use with liquid-cooled cooling plate assemblies and other applications that contain copper (Cu) components is pre-treated with a hydrophobic coating to reduce depletion of a copper corrosion inhibitor (e.g., benzotriazole (BTA)) dissolved in a liquid coolant (e.g., deionized water) that flows through the hose. Exemplary hydrophobic coatings include, but are not limited to, polydialkylsiloxanes such as polydimethylsiloxanes. In one embodiment, a multilayer hose is immersed in a solution containing hydrophobizing siloxane monomers dissolved in a solvent. The coated multilayer hose is then dried to evaporate the solvent. As the solvent evaporates, the siloxane monomers bind together to form the hydrophobic coating. In some embodiments, one or more hoses each provided with a hydrophobic coating interconnect liquid-coolant cooling system components (e.g.

  • Patent number: 11092763
    Abstract: A method of forming a coaxial wire that includes providing a sacrificial trace structure using an additive forming method, the sacrificial trace structure having a geometry for the coaxial wire, and forming a continuous seed metal layer on the sacrificial trace structure. The sacrificial trace structure may be removed and a first interconnect metal layer may be formed on the continuous seed layer. An electrically insulative layer may then be formed on the first interconnect metal layer, and a second interconnect metal layer is formed on the electrically insulative layer. Thereafter, a dielectric material is formed on the second interconnect metal layer to encapsulate a majority of an assembly of the first interconnect metal layer, electrically insulative layer and second interconnect metal layer that provides said coaxial wire. Ends of the coaxial wire may be exposed through opposing surfaces of the dielectric material to provide that the coaxial wire extends through that dielectric material.
