A PCI Express-compatible flash device can include one or more flash memory modules, a controller, and an ExpressCard interface. The controller can advantageously provide PCI Express functionality as well as flash memory operations, e.g. writing, reading, or erasing, using the ExpressCard interface. A PIO interface includes sending first and second memory request packets to the flash device. The first memory request packet includes a command word setting that prepares the flash device for the desired operation. The second memory request packet triggers the operation and includes a data payload, if needed. A DMA interface includes sending the second memory request from the flash device to the host, thereby triggering the host to release the system bus for the DMA operation.

A thermal management for EMI shielded circuit packs having one or more high-power components, i.e. heat sources. More particularly, a heat transfer device or assembly for EMI shielded circuit packs is provided whereby multiple components (e.g., high-power components) are cooled by individual heat sinks (i.e., each component has its own individual heat sink) which protrude into an external airflow through individual openings in the lid of the EMI shield. Mechanically-compliant, electrically-conductive gaskets are used to seal the base plates of the individual heat sinks against the lid of the EMI shield enclosure. As such, in accordance with the various embodiments, the conductive gaskets establish a compliance layer which accommodates any variation in the heights of the individual components, thereby, allowing optimum thermal contact between the components and their respective heat sinks without compromising the EMI shielding.

The invention belongs to the technical field of the Internet and provides a content delivery method and system of a content delivery network. The content delivery network (CDN) comprises a CDN data source server and multiple CDN nodes, wherein the P2P protocol is executed between the multiple CDN nodes, and the CDN nodes receive a content delivery command and obtain data files relevant to the content delivery command from the CDN data source server or other CDN nodes so that the data files relevant to the content delivery command can be downloaded by a client side. Through the content delivery method and system of the content delivery network, the load of the CDN data source server can be effectively reduced, the bandwidth pressure of the CDN data source server is reduced, and content delivery efficiency and quality are improved.

A uniform-type chef suit garment that appears to have physically separate jacket and pants but that includes an upper torso jacket and liner which is attached to the pants to optimize comfort by eliminating a fitted waist, while improving serviceability during cleaning of the garment. The garment includes various means that enable the wearer to don and remove the chef suit. In various embodiments, the pants are further adapted to be adjustable in length or to have a length limiting feature to prevent undesirable wear and soiling of the cuffs. In various preferred configurations, the jacket may preferably also incorporate a jacket taper adjustment feature as well as various implement holding elements that can be adapted to retain towels, gloves, cooking utensils, and other implements. In various alternative modifications, reversible breast lapels are incorporated into the garment to prolong clean and professional appearance and serviceability in operational food service environments.

A multilumen unilimb breathing circuit with a detachable proximal fitting for providing respiratory gases to and receiving expiratory gases from a patient. The circuit has unique fittings for connection to patient devices or assisted ventilation systems and components. Despite many teachings away in the prior art from making breathing circuit tubing detachable from the proximal terminal, the proximal end of the rigid multilumen proximal fitting can be attached and detached by a user at a site of use to a mating multilumen proximal terminal while its distal end can be attached to multiple lumens formed of flexible tubing for carrying gases to and from a patient. The present invention introduces for the first time to the multilumen unilimb circuit art a detachable proximal fitting.

In combination, the loose tube flying lead includes: a) a pair of improved cobra head assemblies, each being able to receive a variety of different stab-plates with minimal modification; b) a pair of bend limiters, one extending from each cobra head assembly and c) an elongate bundle of non-constrained interior conduits surrounded by an over-hose, the over-hose being connected to each bend limiter. The over-hose may rotate independently of the bend limiters and the cobra head assemblies.

A cooling system has a cooling bath. The open space of the cooling bath contains a second coolant having a boiling point, and having an electronic device that has a processor that is a heat generating component mounted on a board, and is immersed in the second coolant. A boiling cooling device is thermally connected to the processor, and encloses a first coolant having a boiling point. A first heat exchanger has a high-temperature side passage formed of a group of narrow gaps or a group of micro passages, through which the second coolant is passed, and a low-temperature side passage formed of a group of narrow gaps or a group of micro passages, through which a third cooling medium having a boiling point is passed. A pump is configured to pressurize and deliver the second coolant warmed in the cooling bath toward the inlet of the high-temperature side passage.

A sensorless switched reluctance machine includes a stator with a plurality of circumferentially-spaced stator segment assemblies that include salient stator poles and inter-polar stator slots. Each of the stator segment assemblies includes a stack of stator plates forming a stator segment core, an end cap assembly, and winding wire wound around the stator segment core and the end cap assembly. The rotor defines a plurality of rotor poles. The rotor tends to rotate relative to the stator to a rotational position that maximizes the inductance of an energized winding. A sensorless drive circuit derives rotor position and energizes the winding wire around the stator segment assemblies based on the derived rotor position. Each stator plate includes a first radially outer rim section and a tooth section that extends radially inwardly from a first center portion of the first radially outer rim section.
