Publication number: 20200005967Abstract: Probe assembly includes an ultrasound probe and a cable assembly configured to communicatively couple the ultrasound probe to a control system and transmit signals therethrough. The cable assembly includes a cable jacket surrounding a channel of the cable assembly. The cable assembly also includes a plurality of wire pairs extending through the channel. The channel being sized and shaped to permit the wire pairs to move relative to one another within the channel when the probe assembly is moved. The wire pairs and the channel are configured to have a designated pack ratio (AreaWPS/AreaC). The AreaWPS includes a collective cross-sectional area of the wire pairs, and the AreaC is equal to a cross-sectional area of the channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 9, 2019Publication date: January 2, 2020Inventors: Arthur G. Buck, Paul C. Sprunger, Kevin T. Lewis, Yevgeniy Mayevskiy, Thomas J. Medina, Thuong A. Huynh

Publication number: 20150289850Abstract: A coupling for interfacing a heat source to a heat sink for dissipating heat from the heat source includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion defines a surface that defines a plurality of spaced apart voids that extend into the first portion. The second portion has an outside surface that complements the surface of the first portion. The second portion is capable of repeated mate and de-mate cycles from the first portion. A gel is disposed on the interior surface of the cavity. In operation, insertion of the second portion within the cavity causes a portion of the gel to displace into openings at first ends of the voids. The gel returns to an original shape when the second portion is removed from the cavity.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2014Publication date: October 15, 2015Applicant: Tyco Electronics CorporationInventors: Kevin T.

Patent number: 6892218Abstract: A technique fulfills service requests in a system of computers that communicate as nodes within a network. The technique involves sending, in response to an initial service request that requests a service provided by a primary server node, a mobile agent from the primary server node to an intermediate node. The mobile agent indicates to the intermediate node that a secondary server node is capable of providing the service. The technique further involves intercepting, at the intermediate node, a subsequent service request sent from a client node to the primary server node, the subsequent service request requesting the service, and sending an instruction from the intermediate node to the secondary server node. The instruction instructs the secondary server node to provide the service. The technique further includes providing, in response to the instruction, the service from the secondary server node to the client node.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2003Date of Patent: May 10, 2005Assignee: Certeon, Inc.Inventors: Abdelsalam A. Heddaya, Kevin T. Lewis, Sulaiman A. Mirdad, David J. Yates, Ian C. Yates

Patent number: 6553376Abstract: A technique for optimizing delivery of specialized content files such as multimedia files in a computer network. A multimedia file cache is located at a point of presence, such as at an Internet Service Provider (ISP), gateway, or other place close to user connection points into the network. A redirection function intercepts media redirection file requests sent to or from the media server and rewrites such requests so that they point to the local media file cache.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 1999Date of Patent: April 22, 2003Assignee: InfoLibria, Inc.Inventors: Kevin T. Lewis, David L. Hoey
