Abstract: A device having indirect visual indicators to communicate information about states of operation is disclosed herein. The visual indicators may output a visual indication based on operational states of the device or other systems associated with the device. In some examples, a thermostat may include a downcast light that outputs a visual indication based on a mode of operation of the thermostat or a mode of operation of an associated heating, cooling, and ventilation (HVAC) system. Various characteristics of the visual indication may be altered to output different information. In some examples, a color of the visual indication may change based on the modes of operation or the visual indication may be pulsed based on the modes of operation.

Abstract: The apparatus to transfer heat from memory components includes a first non-volatile memory component and a second non-volatile memory component. The apparatus includes a heat spreading material in thermal communication with the first non-volatile memory component and the second non-volatile memory component. The heat spreading material is configured to transfer heat from the first non-volatile memory component and the second non-volatile memory component.

Abstract: A wash system for cleaning the exposed surfaces of a contaminant collection device that includes a source of pressurized cleaning solution and a rinse appliance. The rinse appliance includes a first flow path that is adapted to direct the pressurized cleaning solution against a plurality of interior surfaces of a sampling head of the contaminant collection device and a vacuum tube that couples the sampling head to a collection chamber of the contaminant collection device. The rinse appliance may also include a second flow path that is adapted to direct the pressurized cleaning solution against a plurality of interior surfaces of the collection chamber and a separator filter installed therein. The rinse appliance further includes a dipping tank adapted to receive the cleaning solution after passing through one of the first and second flow paths.

Abstract: A microscope attached slide dotting device includes a clamping ring arranged for selective mounting onto a microscope barrel having an objective lens. The clamping ring includes cooperative first and second semi-cylindrical members arranged for clamping about the microscope barrel. The second semi-cylindrical member employs a mounting boss provided with opposed dovetail projections slidably and complementarily received within a slide plate. The slide plate includes opposed first plate flanges to receive the dovetail projections projecting from a first side of the slide plate, with a second side of the slide plate projecting at a dovetail boss for complementary and slidable reception within a housing recess of an associated marker housing. The marker housing includes a marker assembly extending through the marker housing. A plurality of clamping members permits orthogonal and slidable relationship of the marker housing relative to the clamping ring via slide plate.
