Patent number: 9951785Abstract: Apparatuses and methods are provided for facilitating air-cooling of, for instance, one or more electronics racks within a data center. The apparatus includes an air-moving assembly and one or more flywheels. The air-moving assembly includes a shaft, one or more mechanical fans coupled to the shaft to rotate, at least in part, with the shaft, and a motor coupled to the shaft to rotatably drive the shaft. The flywheel(s) is sized and coupled to the shaft of the air-moving assembly to store rotational energy, and to facilitate, for a specified period of time, continued rotation of the shaft during interruption in power to the motor. In one implementation, the flywheel(s) is sized and coupled to the shaft to facilitate, for the specified time period, continued rotation of the shaft at a specified percentage, or greater, rotational speed of the shaft compared with shaft speed when rotatably driven by the motor.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2016Date of Patent: April 24, 2018Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Milnes P.

Patent number: 9858794Abstract: A method for detecting and notifying of various potential hazards may include receiving a plurality of biometric data values by a first set of sensors of a sensing device. The biometric data values may correspond to a health state of a person. A plurality of environmental data values may be received by a second set of sensors of the sensing device. The environmental data values may correspond to a safety state of an environment that the person is in. The sensing device may compare the plurality of biometric data and environmental data values against respective models of biometric and environmental threshold data values that indicate a likelihood of a person or environment in an unhealthy or unsafe state. The sensing device may notify one or more communication devices if at least one of the biometric or environmental data values exceeds at least one of the threshold data values.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2015Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Donald W. McCleary, Sal M. Rosato, Judith O. Uchidiuno, Xiying Wang, Justin D. Weisz
