Abstract:
Multi-operational mode fluid extractors and associated methods are disclosed herein. An extractor configured in accordance with a particular embodiment includes a waste fluid tank positioned to receive extracted waste fluid and an air mover proximate to the waste fluid tank. A first airflow connector couples the air mover to the waste fluid tank for drawing a vacuum in the waste fluid tank. A second airflow connector is operably coupled to the waste fluid tank and positioned to be coupled to a suction source that is spaced apart from the extractor. In particular embodiments, heat from air moving through the air mover can be transferred from the air mover cavity into the waste fluid tank.
Abstract:
Dehumidifiers with improved airflow and fluid management features are disclosed herein. A dehumidifier configured in accordance with a particular embodiment includes a housing, a moisture removal component, and an airflow director. The housing at least partially defines an airflow path extending therethrough. The moisture removal component is positioned within the housing along a portion of the airflow path, and the airflow path enters the moisture removal component in a first direction. The airflow director adjacent to the moisture removal component extends in a plane that is generally parallel to the first direction.
Abstract:
Information handling system errors are presented at a display with the information handling system graphics subsystem inoperative by communicating an identified error to the display through an auxiliary channel and generating a presentation of the error information with a microcontroller of the display. For example, errors determined by BIOS firmware running on a chipset are communicated through a DDC or I2C channel from the chipset to the display so that textual error messages are generated at the display without the use of the information handling system's graphic processor to generate an error message image.
Abstract:
A blower system comprising a housing and a fan assembly. The housing defines a housing chamber, at least one inlet opening, a primary outlet opening, and a secondary outlet opening. The fan assembly is mounted within the housing chamber. Operation of the fan assembly draws air into the housing chamber through the at least one inlet opening and forces air out of the housing chamber through at least one of the primary outlet opening and the secondary outlet opening.
Abstract:
An apparatus for straight-lining construction material comprises an extension coupled to a rip fence and a carrier assembly coupled to the top of the extension, in which the carrier assembly travels along the extension to deliver the material to a saw blade. The carrier assembly comprises a sled, a plurality of clamp assemblies and a guide, the sled and the plurality of adjustable clamp assemblies coupled to the guide. The guide has a recess receiving the extension. Each one of the plurality of clamp assemblies secures the material in position.
Abstract:
A method for identifying excursions to general solutions provided by a solution network which includes identifying excursions to a general solution on a system basis, saving the excursions within the solution network on a system basis, and when accessing the solution network, searching the solution network to determine whether an excursion solution exists.
Abstract:
A method for creating knowledge in a solution network. The method includes generating knowledge for a solution network based upon an interaction with a user of the solution network and saving the knowledge for the solution network while interacting with the user.
Abstract:
A method of and apparatus for capturing and processing Continuous media-based data streams transmitted over an IEEE 1394 serial bus manages the use of both receive buffers and process buffers in order to minimize the amount of captured data that is discarded due to unavailable process buffers. When receiving a stream of continuous data. the data is captured and stored within a current receive buffer. When the current receive buffer is full. the captured data within the receive buffer is then read out, processed and stored within a process buffer, if a process buffer is available on a cached list of process buffers. When Full of processed data, the process buffer is then transferred to an application for utilization or further processing of the processed data. If the process buffer is not completely filled, then the process buffer is added back to the cached list of process buffers. If a receive buffer is tilled and no process buffer is available or if there are already filled receive buffers on a cached list of receive buffers, the filled receive buffer is then added to the cached list of receive buffers. When a process buffer is then available, the data within the earliest filled receive buffer on the cached list of receive buffers is processed and transferred to the available process buffer. If the receive buffer is not emptied, the receive buffer is then put back on the cached list of receive buffers. When the cached list of receive buffers includes a predetermined number of buffers. the data within the earliest filled receive buffer on the cached list of receive buffers is discarded. thereby emptying the receive buffer. The emptied receive buffer is then added to the series of available receive buffers to receive the current captured data.
