  • Publication number: 20260078965
    Abstract: A heat sink on a closed housing of an electronic component or circuit. In order to produce a heat sink for an electronic component or circuit on a closed housing, it is proposed for a cooling element with a good thermal coupling to be positioned on a back side of the electronic component or circuit wherein the cooling element comprises at least one first metal plate with a three-dimensional structure, heat is introduced via a flat base of the first metal plate and heat is conveyed away toward apexes of the three-dimensional structure, wherein at least one second metal plate is positioned so that it adjoins the first metal plate or the apexes thereof with thermal contact in order to convey away the heat.

  • Patent number: 12127844
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are implementations of a method and apparatus for stroke self-detection. The method and apparatus may include a mobile platform for stroke detection. The method may include receiving sensor data. The method may include comparing the sensor data with a baseline test result to determine a test score. The method may include determining a passing test result based on a threshold. The method may include transmitting the results or an alert to one or more of an emergency contact, emergency medical services, a physician, or a telemedicine provider.

  • Patent number: 7694091
    Abstract: One embodiment of a non-volatile memory system comprises block-accessible non-volatile memory, random access memory arranged to be linearly addressable by a processor as part of the processor's memory address space, to be read from and written to by the processor, and logic interposed between the block-accessible non-volatile memory and the random access memory and arranged to write parts of the content of the random access memory in blocks to blocks of the non-volatile, block-accessible memory. The logic is arranged to monitor processor writes to the random access memory, and to write blocks of the random access memory that differ from a most recent copy in the non-volatile, block-accessible memory to the non-volatile, block-accessible memory.

  • Publication number: 20050211300
    Abstract: A safety device prevents access to the gas valve of a propane tank. The device includes a cup which fits over the valve, and a locking device for preventing the cup from being lifted from the valve. In some embodiments, the device includes a handle which allows the tank to be carried easily while the safety device is installed. In at least one embodiment, there is no handle. The device prevents children, and other unauthorized persons, from operating the valve, and thus prevents the accidental release of flammable gas.
