  • Patent number: 11746996
    Abstract: An adapter assembly for securing a luminaire to a niche formed in a wall of a pool or spa. The assembly comprises a mounting bracket having a rear portion shaped and sized to fit within the niche and a front portion comprising a peripheral flange sized to engage the wall surrounding the niche. The mounting bracket enables the luminaire to be secured thereto and be visible from a front side thereof. The assembly includes at least one clamping device attached to the rear portion of the mounting bracket and configured to secure the mounting bracket to the niche. In a preferred embodiment, the clamping device comprises a clamping arm and drive member. The clamping arm is pivotally connected to the mounting bracket such that the mounting bracket is drawn into the niche and the peripheral flange of the mounting bracket is drawn towards the wall surrounding the niche.

  • Patent number: 11507285
    Abstract: Disclosed is a controller for a disaggregated memory device. The controller may receive a request to allocate memory of a specific size from the disaggregated memory device to a computing device, and may generate a memory block device in the specific size from a memory pool formed from physical memory modules configured on the disaggregated memory device. The controller may expose the memory block device to the computing device as a Non-Volatile Memory Express (“NVMe”) target device, and may control access to the memory block device by converting NVMe access requests in a first format from the computing device to access requests in a different second format supported by the memory block device.
