Abstract: A cold plate includes a cold plate body. A tubing system is embedded within the cold plate body. The tubing system includes a prechill circuit, a plain water postchill circuit fluidly connected to the prechill circuit, and a carbonated water postchill circuit fluidly connected to the prechill circuit.

Abstract: A rack assembly provides a portable support structure for supporting and holding one or more support members, one or more light holders, and a storage container for growing plants in vertical farming with minimal to no soil. Sections of the rack assembly are selectively adjustable. The rack assembly is preferably adapted for vertical farming by using one or more pipes or support members, each of which contain one or more plants within one or more pot holders, with at least one or more light holders with a light fixture that provides adequate lighting for the plants to grow, and with the storage container holding water and/or nutrients for plant growth.

Abstract: A modular conduit cable management assembly is used with tall vertical structures for holding and managing one or more cables, with the assembly having a plurality of conduit members and a plurality of removable closure members. Each conduit member has at least one retaining arm, a plurality of prongs, an anchor, and a core, with each conduit member defining a slot opening, a plurality of apertures, a holding cavity forming a conduit track, and a receiving chamber. Once assembled, one or more cables can be installed within the conduit track, with at least one of the closure members closing the conduit member slot opening. The cables and each conduit track may be accessed at a later time after removing the closure member.

Abstract: Methods and systems for power amplification with digital quantized power supply with multiple amplifiers are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, In one embodiment, a time-varying envelope signal is sampled, quantized and decomposed into several constituent signals that are individually amplified, and then combined to form a desired amplified version of the quantized time-varying envelope. Amplitude, phase and/or frequency characteristics of one or more of the signals and supply voltages Vdd and source current of one or more amplifiers are digital controlled based on the information provided by quantization process and slow and fast power control information. Amplitude, phase and/or frequency characteristics of one or more of the constituent signals to be amplified are controlled to provide the desired amplitude, phase, frequency, and/or spectral characteristics of the desired quantized version of the time-varying envelope signal.

Abstract: A visor apparatus has a double layered frame that is attachable to the existing head covering (hoodie) of an article of clothing. The apparatus further has two visor members, a cushion, a plurality of connector members, and a locking mechanism. The visor members are pivotably extendable from within frame's double layer to cover a user's face and neck. One or both visor members may be selectively adjusted for use as a covering or as a face shield. The frame provides stability and structure to the fabric material of the clothing.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device that will consist of two visors attached to a frame that will connect directly to any type of hoodie or like shape device.

Abstract: Techniques for inducing rectification in single-molecule diodes including a symmetric single-molecule adapted to be surrounded by the polar solution. A first electrode can be attached to a first end of the symmetric single-molecule and have a first area adapted for exposure to the polar solution. A second electrode can be attached to a second end of the symmetric single-molecule opposite the first end and have a second area adapted for exposure to the polar solution. The first and second electrodes and the single-molecule can a single-molecule junction, and the first area and second areas of the diodes can differ in size to create an environmental asymmetry. A voltage source can be coupled to the first and second electrodes configured to selectively control the environmental asymmetry and thereby induce current rectification.

Abstract: A network access optimization strategy where mobile device may be directed to access particular networks depending on operation requirements and characteristic. The optimization strategy may rely on a traveling speed of the mobile to device to broadly prioritize a network type suitable for the given traveling speed.
