Abstract:
A cover/shield assembly for an electronic component such as a computer system. The assembly includes a cover and relatively strong and rigid metal shield which shields against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference and which is attached to the inner surface of the cover, yet can easily be separated from the cover for recycling purposes. The shield is formed by a plate and a reinforcing beam connected to the plate. A series of hooks and tabs on the cover extend through slots in the shield and the shield is provided with tabs which engage ribs on the cover, all for the purpose of quick-detachably connecting the shield to the cover.
Abstract:
A computer in which an expansion card cage assembly is mounted in the computer chassis. The expansion card cage assembly includes a wall extending parallel to the chassis wall, a riser card mounted relative to the wall of the cage assembly and having a connector adapted to engage the connector of the motherboard, and at least one expansion card connected to the riser card. A lever is provided on the cage assembly wall and is adapted to engage the chassis wall to quick-detachably connect the cage assembly to the chassis.
Abstract:
A computer system includes a chassis and an access panel mounted on the chassis. The panel includes multiple spaced apart interlocks for mounting the panel on the chassis. A latch is operably connected to the chassis to engage and release the interlocks. The latch includes a main body, a latch member extending from each opposite end of the body for engagement with the interlocks, a single point pressure member and a pair of cantilevered support members extending from the single point pressure member. The support members include extensions for engaging the chassis and retaining the single point pressure member and each latch member in a raised position relative to the chassis for engagement with the interlocks. The application of pressure to the single point pressure member, moves the device to release the latches out of engagement with the interlocks.

Abstract:
A computer system includes a plate for mounting in a chassis. The plate slides into the chassis and is retained therein by a snap-in connection. An interlock device is provided for interlocking the plate and chassis. The device includes a first portion having a first end engaged with the plate and a second portion connected to a second end. The second portion extends angularly relative to the first portion and is engaged with the plate. An interlock member extends from the first portion and through an opening formed in the plate for engagement with the chassis. A pinch and pull motion removes the plate from the chassis.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to band saw blades often used for cutting wood at a sawmill. A band saw blade has teeth, and at least one tooth has a back angle that is greater than the back angle of conventional band saw blades. The greater back angle results in teeth having a smaller tooth angle so that the teeth make deeper penetration into wood or other materials that are cut by the blade.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the structure of a band saw blade. The band saw blade has teeth with an improved geometrical shape that increases the efficiency of the blade. The tooth shape of a band saw blade is defined in part by the back angle and the hook angle, wherein the back angle of the disclosed embodiment exceeds the value of back angle of conventional band saw blades.
Abstract:
The tissue treatment device consists of a bladder (2), having inlet (1) to be connected to a fluid source (not shown). The bladder (2) is placed within a wound cavity and inflated to conform to the cavity shape and apply constant pressure against the wound surface or pulsed pressure, as required. A seal (3) isolates bladder (2) and the wound cavity from atmosphere. Seal (3) includes one or more inlets/outlets (4, 5) for connection to a vacuum source and/or for the supply of media to be introduced into the wound cavity. The vacuum source can be a vacuum pump or a continuous vacuum provided in hospitals. The media to be introduced into the wound cavity can be saline, water or ozone, oxygen, or any substance to promote wound healing. The bladder (2) is made from polymeric material and can also be impregnated with wound healing compounds to promote healing.
Abstract:
A designer tool that facilitates design of an object model. The tool takes as input a computer-readable representation of a graph of objects (e.g., classes), and creates automatically one or more diagrams that depict these classes as editable trees showing their relationships and properties. These graphs naturally have a tree-like structure which is exploited by the approach. The design tool system includes a layout component that receives as input one or more of the graphs, and converts the one or more graphs into the editable treelike structure. The system further comprises a presentation component that presents the editable treelike structure as a treelike structure diagram, and facilitates user interaction therewith. The tool can be used for opening, editing and saving existing object model files or to create new ones.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a fuel composition comprising a fuel and a film-forming additive wherein the fuel comprises diesel and a fuel alcohol and wherein the film-forming additive is present in the fuel composition in an amount of less than 0.1 wt %.
