  • Patent number: 10939587
    Abstract: A cooling system for a server rack may cool one or more servers and one or more components thereof. The cooling system may comprise an air mover, an air delivery manifold, and one or more injection ducts for the one or more servers. The air mover may be located in an air mover module positioned in the server rack and may generate a pressurized airflow. The air delivery manifold receives the pressurized airflow generated by the air mover, and may have delivery ports and provide a fluid path for airflow out of the delivery ports to the injection ducts. The injection ducts may be used to inject the airflow of cooling air into the servers to cool the servers and one or more components thereof.

The substantially horizontally-oriented rearward sole surface extends forwardly from the rear of the club head. The rearward sole surface extends over and is offset in a height direction from the rearward edge. A cavity may be located above the forward sole surface, the cavity having a rearward facing opening located below the rearward sole surface. A projection may extend rearwardly from the rearward edge beneath the rearward sole surface, the projection having sides that extend in a generally breadthwise direction.

  • Publication number: 20200413179
    Abstract: An earphone comprising an ear hook having a body the bulk of which is made from a flexible material molded over a formable member and a plurality of wires. The ear hook includes a first end and a second end and a curved portion in between. The earphone further includes an earbud coupled to the first end of the ear hook and coupled to the plurality of wires. The plurality of wires extends within the ear hook along its length from the first end to the second end exiting the ear hook at the second end. The formable member extends within the ear hook from the first end along a portion of the ear hook length towards the second end and enables the ear hook to be bent along a portion of its length while retaining its bent shape.

  • Publication number: 20200314518
    Abstract: An earpiece is described that includes a driver housing that encloses an audio driver. The driver housing is oriented so that a first end of the driver housing can be supported by a concha bowl of a user's ear and a second end opposite the first end can tilt outside of the user's ear so that the ear need not accommodate an entirety of the driver housing. The driver housing is held in place by an ear clip that engages an exterior portion of the user's ear and attaches to the driver housing by way of a bridge element that can enclose other electronic components such as a battery, antenna, processor and the like.

  • Publication number: 20200298074
    Abstract: Golf clubs and golf club heads having a weight member that is configurable in multiple positions to alter the performance characteristics of the golf club head are presented. In some examples, the weight member may be arranged in a sole of the golf club head and may include ends having different weighting characteristics. For instance, one end may be heavier or denser than another end of the weight member. The difference in weight characteristics may be due to different materials used to form the different ends, different construction of the ends, and the like. The position of the weight member may be adjusted to alter the performance characteristics of the golf club head. For instance, the weight member may be removed and rotated to position a heavier end where a lighter end was previously positioned.

  • Patent number: 10779443
    Abstract: In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, methods, and/or processes may receive ambient temperature limits of information handling systems; may receive ambient temperatures associated with the information handling systems; may determine ambient temperature margins based at least on the ambient temperature limits and the ambient temperatures; may determine that each ambient temperature margin of the ambient temperature margins is above an ambient temperature margin threshold of ambient temperature margin thresholds associated with the information handling systems; in response to determining that each ambient temperature margin of the ambient temperature margins is above the ambient temperature margin threshold of the ambient temperature margin thresholds associated with the information handling systems, may determine that a supply air temperature of the computer room is to be increased; and may reduce a duty cycle of a cooling system of a computer room air handler associated with the computer room.
