Publication number: 20080230501Abstract: The cooler support shelf is a rectangular platform having each of two corner sections of one side of the platform perpendicularly connected to separate vertical rails. The tops of the two rails are curved into hooks in the direction away from the platform. Diagonal support struts are connected from opposed sides of the platform to the lower part of each vertical rail. A horizontal support bar may extend between the connections of the diagonal support struts and the vertical rails. A hook and loop restraining strap is connected near the top of each vertical rail. The two straps can connect around the cooler to keep it in place on the platform.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2008Publication date: September 25, 2008Inventor: David R. Gray

Patent number: 6487626Abstract: A computer architecture that includes a high speed, low pin bus that directly couples a microprocessor to the physical memory of the processor. Physical memory typically has a number of dynamic random access memory (DRAM) devices. The bus is a byte wide and has a data rate of approximately 500 Mbytes/sec. The high speed bus may be coupled with a conventional bus, so that conventional devices can communicate with the processor using existing bus protocols. The present invention includes a processor interface that allows the processor to communicate using the protocol of either bus. The interface also allows communication between devices on either bus. Also included is a system that incorporates cache memory on a high speed memory bus and a method for allowing I/O devices to be placed on both a conventional bus and the separate high speed bus.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2001Date of Patent: November 26, 2002Assignee: Intel CorporaitonInventors: David R. Gray, Mark A. Gonzales, Linda J. Rankin

Patent number: 5852712Abstract: A CMOS microprocessor chip includes an on-chip single-poly EPROM that is process compatible with the CMOS process used to manufacture the microprocessor. The EPROM is used to store manufacturing and contract related data such as serial number, customer, and process related data such as wafer number test results, binning data, etc. This provides important information for quality and reliability control. The EPROM is also used to control selection of optional microprocessor features such as speed governing, pin-out and I/O bus interface configuration. A third use is for trimming of critical circuit elements and for cache redundancy fault control.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 1997Date of Patent: December 22, 1998Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Michael J. Allen, Gregory K. Crain, Stephen A. Fischer, Patrick P. Gelsinger, David R. Gray, Stuart T. Hopkins, Gustay Laub, III, Charles H. Lucas, Richard D. Pashley, Babak Sabi, Joseph D. Schutz, David J.

Patent number: 5466781Abstract: A process is described for producing M-CSF from bacteria. It includes: fermentation of bacteria containing M-CSF DNA; harvest of the fractions that contain the M-CSF protein (refractile bodies); primary recovery of the protein; solubilization and denaturation of refractile bodies; M-CSF refolding; purification by column chromatography and other methods; and formulation of the properly refolded M-CSF. This method is advantageous over prior methods in terms of yield and purity.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 1993Date of Patent: November 14, 1995Assignee: Chiron TherapeuticsInventors: Glenn Dorin, David R.

Patent number: 5191649Abstract: A method of transferring data in response to a read command in a computer system having a plurality of processors coupled to an address bus, a command bus and a data bus is described. A first processor generates and sends the read command to read a first data from a second processor. The second processor then determines with which one of (1) the first data and (2) a read response command and the first data it desires to respond to the read command. If the second processor determines to respond with the first data, then it acknowledges receipt of the read command and performs an ordered response in which the command and address buses are released and only the first data is later sent to the first processor via the data bus when available.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 1990Date of Patent: March 2, 1993Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Sudarshan B. Cadambi, Charles B. Guy, David R. Gray, Mark A. Gonzales

Patent number: 4766267Abstract: A heat-shrinkable electrically shielding tubular article is provided with an electrically conductive lining on its inner surface, which lining is formed of a continuous coating of a metal which deforms without cracking during recovery so that after recovery the coating will remain continuous and adhered to the surface of the article. The coating may be formed of an alloy which softens without fully melting, at the recovery temperature of the article.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 1987Date of Patent: August 23, 1988Assignee: Bowthorpe Hellermann LimitedInventors: David R.
