The end cap may contain an electrical connector with at least one electric cable configured to supply current to at least one operating system electrically coupled to the battery. The end cap may also contain at least one electronic board coupled to the battery, and may be configured to detach from the battery to provide access to the electrical connector and the electronic board.

Abstract: A thermal management system and a method of operating thereof includes a housing body having a first broad surface and an opposing second broad surface and may extend between a first end and a second end. The housing body defines plural passages disposed between the first and second broad surfaces. The plural passages extend in one or more orthogonal directions between the first and second ends of the body. An inlet conduit is fluidly coupled with a first passage of the plural passages via an inlet structure that defines an inlet of the housing body, and directs a fluid into the first passage of the plural passages. An outlet conduit is fluidly coupled with a second passage of the plural passages via an outlet structure that defines an outlet of the housing body, and directs the fluid out of the second passage of the plural passages.

Abstract: Cleaning compositions particularly for laundry, can include one or more subtilisin variant and cleaning adjunct. Methods of treating surfaces, particularly fabrics, can include contacting the surface with an aqueous wash liquor having the cleaning composition therein. The subtilisin variant may have improved stability and/or soil removal compared to one or more reference subtilisin.

Abstract: A connector assembly includes a system connector having a system housing and a system bracket coupled with the system housing. The system bracket includes plural system power contact receptors that receive plural system power contacts. The plural system power contacts are separate from each other by one or more extensions coupled with the system bracket. A module connector is coupled with the system connector. The module connector includes a module housing and a module bracket coupled with the module housing. The module bracket includes plural module power contact receptors that receive plural module power contacts. Each of the plural module power contacts are separated from each other by one or more extensions coupled with the module bracket. Each of the plural system power contacts of the system bracket are configured to mate with one of the plural module power contacts of the module bracket as plural power contact assemblies.

Abstract: An apparatus for compute module management is described herein. The apparatus includes a host system and a logic solution. The host system includes a central processing unit and a plurality of sensors that collect system management data from multiple interfaces. The logic solution consolidates the system management data to a single format for a single interface and transmits the system management data to a central authority. The central authority includes system management firmware for managing each compute module using the consolidated system management data.

Abstract: An automatic dishwashing liquor comprising: a) from about 0.5 to about 10 ppm of orthophosphate expressed as elementary phosphorous; b) from about 40 to about 600 ppm of a first polymer comprising: i) carboxylic acid monomers; ii) monomers comprising a sulfonic acid group wherein the monomers comprising a sulfonic acid group represent 10% or less of the polymer on a molar basis; c) from about 15 to about 150 ppm of a phosphonate; d) a bleach system comprising bleach and a bleach catalyst; and e) less than 30 ppm of polyphosphate.

Abstract: A jig positioning system for use on a truss assembly table. The puck assembly 108 has a puck 109 positioned at least partially above the table top 105 with the puck 109 connected to a carriage 110 positioned at least partially below the table top. The puck assembly 108 moves along slots 118 in the table top 105. A threaded rod 102 extends through a threaded passageway 103 in the carriage 110, so, when the threaded rod rotates, the puck assembly moves along a corresponding slot in the table. A rod support member 116 extends along the length of the threaded rod 102 and is positioned below the threaded rod 102, the support member 116 contacting the carriage and, thereby, preventing the threaded rod from excessive sagging. A debris path is provided along both sides of the support member 116.

Abstract: Some aspects include reception of a command from one of a chassis management module and a BIOS specifying a data region to be updated and a locking policy, determination of whether the data region is locked, implementation of the locking policy and returning of a session lock handle if it is determined that the data region is not locked, reception, from the one of the chassis management module and the BIOS, of data for updating the data region, the session lock handle, and an offset, determination that the session lock handle is associated with the data region, writing of the data to the data region at the offset, reception of a request for data of the updated data region from the other one of the chassis management module and the BIOS, determination of whether the updated data region is locked, and if it is determined that the updated data region is not locked, providing of the data of the updated data region to the other one of the chassis management module and the BIOS.

Abstract: An inter-lip device for regulating mouth airflow to prevent snoring while sleeping. A canoe shaped horizontal pocket is formed by hinge-ably attaching two resilient panels together by three common edges, sized to fit between the lips without protruding into the mouth. An adhesive covering is applied to both outer faces of the pocket and a slit is cut in the middle of the front edge hinge. The pocket opens to the rear into the mouth. The lips are sealed to the adhesive about the pocket opening, holding the mouth closed while directing mouth breathing through the device and out the front slit opening. With the jaw consciously flexed, resting mouth airflow is comfortably allowed, however, a relaxed sleeper's jaw or a forced inhalation will collapse the slit opening, reducing or stopping airflow, causing the user to breath through their nose, thereby preventing the necessary mouth airflow needed to support snoring.
