  • Patent number: 11310937
    Abstract: Systems and methods for chip cooling with near edge jets in a direct liquid cooled module are disclosed. One of the functions of a direct liquid cooled module is to provide cooling liquid to components located on a chip. Jet impingement directly onto the back side of a chip is one cooling method that can provide more efficient cooling. An orifice plate includes an array of small diameter holes that correspond to high velocity jet locations and large diameter holes for the insertion of tubes to connect to lower pressure cavities.

  • Patent number: 9595962
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of safely activating and deactivating hot-swap circuitry powered off of a bus bar. One aspect of the present technology provides a method that includes receiving a bus bar connector. The bus bar connector includes a housing having first and second electrical contacts. The first and second electrical contacts are configured to connect with a bus bar. The bus bar connector also includes a short pin detector attached to the housing. The short pin detector is configured to transmit one or more signals. The method includes engaging the first and second electrical contacts with the bus bar. In response to engaging of the first and second electrical contacts, a first signal can be transmitted indicating that the housing is connected to the bus bar and a hot-swap payload associated with the bus bar connector is activated.

  • Patent number: 9257804
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides various bus bar connectors configured to draw power from a bus bar at non-discrete locations. In one aspect, a bus bar connector may include a connector housing having a slot. The slot may be configured to allow the connector housing to grip a bus bar at different locations. First and second electrical contacts may be disposed on opposite sides of the slot. The bus bar connector includes mounting members for securing the connector housing against an enclosure for the bus bar and a spring clip that can be to attach to upper and lower outer surfaces of the connector housing to provide an amount of contact force onto the outer surface of the connector housing. The amount of contact force enables the first and second electrical contacts to securely grip the bus bar.

  • Patent number: 8971036
    Abstract: The systems and methods described herein include, among other things, a hard disk drive (HDD) retention system that has an HDD carrier assembly into which an HDD is positioned, and which allows an HDD to be inserted and ejected quickly. The carrier assembly includes spring elements, which, upon insertion of the HDD into the carrier assembly, compress, and exert a force on the HDD, retaining it within the assembly, in addition to reducing vibration transmission between the HDD and the carrier assembly.

  • Patent number: 7863055
    Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus for sampling a high-temperature gaseous process stream containing components with high boiling points. The sampling system is especially suited for instruments having extremely low pressure chambers, such as mass spectrometers. The invention reduces the condensation of high boiling point components of the sample in the sampling system without the necessity of maintaining extremely high temperatures. The gaseous sample is passed through an orifice from the high temperature stream into a lower-temperature zone of the sampling system where a low pressure is maintained by a vacuum pump. The low pressure reduces the boiling point of the sample components so they may be maintained in a gas phase without excessive heating. The low pressure sample is then introduced into an instrument chamber through a sample introduction valve.

  • Patent number: 5326575
    Abstract: There is disclosed herein a bag-in-a-bag system wherein the outer bag is windowed and content indicia is displayed in the window. In this system high resolution graphic indicia is provided for the content indicia and low resolution indicia, usually text, is provided on the bag. Furthermore, the graphic indicia is applied to a patch which underlays the window but is larger than the window and smaller than the window-carrying panel, usually the front panel. Furthermore, a protective adhesive liner is applied to the front panel and secures the patch in place. This layer is of a size larger than the patch and a out the size of the inside of the front panel. A method for making this bag-in-a-bag system is also disclosed.
