Abstract: Heat sink retention assemblies and related methods are described. In one embodiment, a system comprises a base, a handle rotatably mounted on the base, and heat sink retention structure joined with the handle and moveable by the handle between an opened and a closed position effective to secure a heat sink on a substrate.

Abstract: Latch systems for a drive cage assembly are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, the latch system may be operated by moving a hinge bracket in a first direction to slide at least one latch on the hinge bracket into an open position. Then receiving a peripheral device in the drive cage assembly in either a tower orientation or a rack orientation when the at least one latch is in the open position. Then moving the hinge bracket in a second direction to slide the at least one latch into a closed position and secure the peripheral device in the drive cage assembly.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, the present invention includes a first electrical connector located on a computer component and a biasing mechanism having a leverage member, such that actuation of the leverage member biases the first electrical connector between engaged and disengaged positions with respect to a second electrical connector separate from the computer component.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a new class of enteral formula containing an admixture of casinate and a stabilizing protein, which is either whey or vegetable. These new enteral formula exhibit significantly reduced creaming when compared to the enteral formula of the prior art in which caseinate was the sole protein source. The invention also includes a method of reducing creaming in enteral formula.

Abstract: In general this invention relates to a powder composition that provides a low fat vitamin and mineral fortified coffee drink when reconstituted with water. The nutritional composition being in the form of a soluble powder containing an instant coffee component, a protein component, a vitamin/mineral component providing at least 25% of U.S. RDI per 8 oz serving, and a carbohydrate component in about 140 Cal per 8 oz serving.

Abstract: A system for cooling a heat-producing component in a computer system includes a conduit or plenum and a fan assembly. The fan assembly may be supported by the conduit. An air stream directing and acoustic shielding member is disposed in the conduit to prevent or reduce transmission of acoustic noise during operation of the fan assembly to a region outside the computer console. The shield member may be made of an open-cell foam or other sound deadening or reflecting material. A secondary conduit is provided for recirculating a portion of the internal air within the computer chassis. The internal air stream may be joined and mixed with the air stream from outside the chassis to provide both fresh air and recirculation cooling.
