A temperature-homogenizing device for uniformly dissipating heat generated from electronic components in an electronic device to a housing of the electronic device includes a first and a second higher thermally conductive layers and a first lower thermally conductive layer. The first lower thermally conductive layer is disposed between the first and the second higher thermally conductive layers, and made of a material or a medium having a lower thermal conductivity than each of the first and the second higher thermally conductive layers. By means of this temperature-homogenizing device, the heat is homogeneously distributed throughout the first and the second higher thermally conductive layers at a higher thermal conduction rate and transferred through the first lower thermally conductive layer at a lower thermal conduction rate so as to maintain homogeneous temperature distribution on the housing.

A double wire seal has a first grommet for sealing a conductor relative to a substrate having opposite sides and an opening therethrough for a conductor. The first grommet has axially opposite ends. A second grommet for sealing the conductor relative to a door panel having opposite ends and an opening therethrough for the conductor. The second grommet has axially opposite ends. The first grommet secures the conductor to the substrate. The second grommet secures the conductor to the door panel.

A fluid control device for use in a high pressure fluid system, the device including a device body with a cavity and a high pressure circuit, a plunger positioned for reciprocal movement in the cavity, and a leakage reduction cap mounted to the plunger for reducing fluid leakage flow. In one implementation, the leakage reduction cap includes a flexible portion positioned between the device body and the plunger, and defining an annular clearance gap between the leakage reduction cap and the device body. The flexible portion of the leakage reduction cap resiliently flexes radially outwardly in response to fluid pressure forces to reduce the annular clearance gap so as to minimize fluid leakage flow through the annular clearance gap.

Systems and methods are provided for optimizing the performance of a mass spectrometer system when multiple measurements are made. For example, the total settling time of different components or stages of a mass spectrometer, such as a tandem mass spectrometer, are decreased by optimally ordering the measurements.

A tubular grommet for sealing a conductor relative to a substrate having opposite sides and an opening therethrough for the conductor has axially opposite ends, one of which sealing engages with the conductor and the other of which is radially spaced from the conductor, diametrically larger than the opening through the substrate, and includes a radially outwardly extending peripheral flange for engaging against the substrate when the grommet is mounted thereon. A wall between the ends includes first and second re-entrant wall portions facing the one end, and the grommet can be provided with a recess in the wall adjacent the flange for receiving the peripheral edge of the opening through the substrate and/or can be adhesively bonded to the substrate by an adhesive interposed between the flange and substrate.

Disclosed are embodiments for a design structure of an asymmetric field effect transistor structure and a method of forming the structure in which both series resistance in the source region (R_s) and gate to drain capacitance (C_gd) are reduced in order to provide optimal performance (i.e., to provide improved drive current with minimal circuit delay). Specifically, different heights of the source and drain regions and/or different distances between the source and drain regions and the gate are tailored to minimize series resistance in the source region (i.e., in order to ensure that series resistance is less than a predetermined resistance value) and in order to simultaneously to minimize gate to drain capacitance (i.e., in order to simultaneously ensure that gate to drain capacitance is less than a predetermined capacitance value).

A drain valve for mounting as a replacement for the drain plug in the oil pan of a motor vehicle includes a body member having an upstream end threaded for attachment to the oil pan, a downstream end, and a passageway therethrough normally closed by a valve element adjacent the downstream end thereof. A valve actuator is mountable on the downstream end of the body member to displace the valve element to open the passageway, and the downstream end of the actuator receives a drain hose for directing the oil to a collection receptacle. A dust cap covers the downstream end of the valve between draining operations to protect the valve from damage.

The present embodiment relates to a camera module comprising: a bobbin, which has a through-hole formed therein; a lens module, which is accommodated in the through-hole and is coupled to the bobbin; a protrusion formed to protrude from the outer peripheral surface of the lens module; and a recess formed to be recessed from the inner peripheral surface of the bobbin so as to accommodate at least a part of the protrusion, wherein the recess comprises a first guide portion, which extends downwards from the upper end of the bobbin, and a second guide portion, which extends so as to slope from the first guide portion.

A position sensor has at least one guide rail for a guide housing having a magnetic component. On the guide housing, an encapsulation is accommodated which electrically insulates and/or fixes a lead frame assembly and/or a circuit trace assembly. It forms a retainer for the magnetic component.

A container sealing apparatus 10 comprises an electrically conductive linearly displaceable cutting member 14 operable to cut a portion 18 of sealing material from a web 16 and an independently linearly displaceable transfer member 42 comprising an electrically insulating material and extendible relative to the cutting member 14 to transfer the cut portion 18 of sealing material to an open top of a container 12 to be sealed. An induction coil 52 produces an induction field 54 for heating the cut portion 18 of sealing material, either directly or indirectly, by induction heating to seal the cut portion 18 of sealing material to the open top of the container 12. The linearly displaceable transfer member 42 holds the cut portion 18 of sealing material against the open top of the container 12 during induction heating. A field concentrator 56 is provided to concentrate the induction field 54 in a desired region away from the linearly displaceable electrically conductive cutting member 14 and other electrically conductive component parts of the apparatus 10 to optimize the induction heating of the cut portion 18 of sealing material.

An ink container for an inkjet cartridge comprises spaced apart side walls, a front wall, a rear wall and a bottom wall, and a partition dividing the interior into three ink chambers. Each chamber includes an outlet port in the bottom wall, and the front wall and bottom wall lie in generally perpendicular planes, and a planer guide wall extends between and at an angle to the front and bottom walls. Each chamber contains a block of ink absorbent material and a felt filter pad between the corresponding block and outlet port, and the container further includes a cover having a flat upper surface provided with serrations to enhance gripping the container.

Precision in thermotherapy is obtained by providing a reverse gelling polymer composition which gels when its temperature is raised above body temperature. The composition is injected into the blood supply of the tissue being treated, at the beginning of thermotherapy. The temperature increase caused by the heating gels the composition, which temporarily blocks the flow of blood in the region being treated. This improves the predictability and stability of treatment. On cessation of heating, the composition liquefies, removing the temporary embolization. The use of local heating can also expedite removal of tumors and the like from soft organs, even when the heating itself has no therapeutic effect.

Wherein, the conductive layers can be used as local bit lines to reduce the resistance values and improve the performance of the memory device.
